Channel-Wise Attention Mechanism in the 3D Convolutional Network for Lung Nodule Detection

Abstract: Pulmonary nodule detection is essential to reduce the mortality of lung cancer. One-stage detection methods have recently emerged as high-performance and lower-power alternatives to two-stage lung nodule detection methods. However, it is difficult for existing one-stage detection networks to balance sensitivity and specificity. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end detection mechanism combined with a channel-wise attention mechanism based on a 3D U-shaped residual network. First, an improved attention gate (… Show more

“…Compared with the 3D approach, although the amount of computation is reduced, the correlation between slices is ignored, while the 3D nature of CT scans is not noticed. Considering these factors, in recent years, 2D-3D or 3D-based input approaches have been adopted by more and more CADe schemes, such as Zhang Guanglu et al [47] and Zhu Xiaoyu et al [48].…”

“…Li et al [15] applied a method for pulmonary nodule detection using deep convolutional neural networks. Zhu et al [16] introduced a 3D U-shaped residual network with the foundation of end-to-end detection and channel-wise attention mechanisms. The first step is the introduction of an upgraded attention gate (AG) that uses crucial feature dimensions at skip connections for feature propagation to lower the false-positive rate.…”
