Lung contour detection in chest radiographs using <inline-formula>1-<roman>D</roman></inline-formula> convolution neural networks

Abstract: The purposes of this research are to investigate the effectiveness of our novel lung contour detection method in chest radiographs. The proposed method consists of five sections as follows. First, in order to reduce the amount of information, the images are smoothed and subsampled from 2 k by 2.5 k pixels to 256 by 310 pixels with rescaling from 12-bit to 8-bit based on the image maximum and minimum. Second, that the image is resolved into the profiles for two directions (i.e., horizontal x and vertical y axes… Show more

“…The same authors [ 13 ] in their next proposed technique used locally calculated features to classify pixels into one of the several anatomical classes. Since subset of features that were used for classification gives reduced computational complexity as well as reduced time with efficiency comparable to the full set of features, Osamu Tsujii et.al [ 10 ] proposed a method for automatic lung segmentation; initial size of the image is reduced and smoothed; in the next step, image is resolved into horizontal and vertical profiles. These profiles were given as input for two convolution neural networks.…”
