Deep supervision about mednext

[saikat-roy]

Hey Ikboljon,

Thanks for the question. Our main competitor during development was nnUNet - both nnUNet and MedNeXt uses deep supervision while allows for an equivalent comparison between these 2 nets.

Since a majority of the other baselines (4 out of the 6) didn't use deep supervision in their original publications - we decided to keep things uniform and not use deep supervision in all 6 model. However, you are right to point this out as this was raised in the MICCAI reviews as well - we hope to follow-up on this work and test deep-supervision to the 2 out of 6 baselines that used them in the original publication in later work.

Regards,
Saikat
