CDDSA: Contrastive Domain Disentanglement and Style Augmentation for Generalizable Medical Image Segmentation
First, a disentangle network is proposed to decompose an image into a domain-invariant anatomical representation and a domain-specific style code, where the former is sent to a segmentation model that is not affected by the domain shift, and the disentangle network is regularized by a decoder that combines the anatomical and style codes to reconstruct the input image.
