Abstract: Cervical cancer is a common malignant tumor that threatens women’s life and health. Its early diagnosis and treatment are very important for patients’ life safety. However, due to the shortcomings of traditional manual examination in efficiency and consistency of results, it is urgent to use computer-aided technology to improve the accuracy and efficiency of diagnosis. In recent years, the rapid development of deep learning technology has been applied to the field of cervical cell segmentation, which has greatly improved the accuracy and speed of segmentation, and thus significantly improved the accuracy and efficiency of cervical cytology examination, providing strong technical support for the early diagnosis of cervical cancer. In order to better understand the research status and progress of deep learning technology in the field of cervical cell segmentation, firstly, the widely used public cervical cell segmentation datasets are summarized. At the same time, the commonly used evaluation indicators are systematically summarized to better understand the performance of different models. Then, the specific application of deep learning technology in the field of cervical cell segmentation is discussed, and the main improvement strategies, actual effects and limitations of different algorithms are compared in detail. Finally, the current challenges and problems in this field are analyzed, and the future research direction is proposed.
