DR-Net: dual-rotation network with feature map enhancement for medical image segmentation

Abstract

To obtain more semantic information with small samples for medical image segmentation, this paper proposes a simple and efficient dual-rotation network (DR-Net) that strengthens the quality of both local and global feature maps. The key steps of the DR-Net algorithm are as follows (as shown in Fig. 1). First, the number of channels in each layer is divided into four equal portions. Then, different rotation strategies are used to obtain a rotation feature map in multiple directions for each subimage. Then, the multiscale volume product and dilated convolution are used to learn the local and global features of feature maps. Finally, the residual strategy and integration strategy are used to fuse the generated feature maps. Experimental results demonstrate that the DR-Net method can obtain higher segmentation accuracy on both the CHAOS and BraTS data sets compared to the state-of-the-art methods.

“…The input image is over-segmented using an image segmentation algorithm [ 23 , 24 ]. Although the scene cannot be correctly segmented, the segmentation result can be used as the over-segmentation result.…”

High-Precision Target Detection of Remote Sensing Image Based on Feature Enhancement with 6G Technology

“…You et al launched in 2016 the Gaojin-1 series which is my country's first 0.5-meter highprecision remote sensing satellite. ey can display highresolution images over distances over 60 km and have better panchromatic accuracy of 0.5 m or 2 m multispectral [7]. Li et al stated that the highest-precision industrial remote sensing satellite developed by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation in December 2018 has a density of 0.3 meters, and its performance is the best commercial remote control satellite in the world today [8].…”

Classification of Diabetic Retinopathy Severity in Fundus Images Using the Vision Transformer and Residual Attention

“…With the development and application of artificial intelligence technology, deep learning [ 5 ] is playing a more and more important role in the field of medical image analysis. In recent years, the convolutional neural network (CNN) has been successfully applied to medical image classification [ 6 , 7 ], medical image segmentation [ 8 , 9 ], medical image registration [ 10 , 11 ], medical image fusion [ 12 , 13 ], and medical image report generation [ 14 , 15 ] because it can learn highly complicated representations in a data-driven way. Although CNN shows great potential in medical image analysis, it also has some limitations.…”
