Deep learning techniques have successfully been employed in numerous computer vision tasks including image segmentation. The techniques have also been applied to medical image segmentation, one of the most critical tasks in computer-aided…
Identification of functional elements of a genome often requires dividing a sequence of measurements along a genome into segments differing from adjacent segments. In many applications, the mean of the measured values at multiple genomic…
In this study, we propose LDMRes-Net, a lightweight dual-multiscale residual block-based computational neural network tailored for medical image segmentation on IoT and edge platforms. Conventional U-Net-based models face challenges in…
Cataract is one of the most common blinding eye diseases and can be treated by surgery. However, because cataract patients may also suffer from other blinding eye diseases, ophthalmologists must diagnose them before surgery. The cloudy lens…
Stroke is the second leading cause of mortality worldwide. Immediate attention and diagnosis play a crucial role regarding patient prognosis. The key to diagnosis consists in localizing and delineating brain lesions. Standard stroke…
Most iris recognition pipelines involve three stages: segmenting into iris/non-iris pixels, normalization the iris region to a fixed area, and extracting relevant features for comparison. Given recent advances in deep learning it is prudent…
The accurate detection of lesion attributes is meaningful for both the computeraid diagnosis system and dermatologists decisions. However, unlike lesion segmentation and melenoma classification, there are few deep learning methods and…
People with diabetes are at risk of developing an eye disease called diabetic retinopathy (DR). This disease occurs when high blood glucose levels cause damage to blood vessels in the retina. Computer-aided DR diagnosis is a promising tool…
Automatic segmentation of organs-at-risk (OAR) in computed tomography (CT) is an essential part of planning effective treatment strategies to combat lung and esophageal cancer. Accurate segmentation of organs surrounding tumours helps…
Background: Changes in choroidal thickness are associated with various ocular diseases and the choroid can be imaged using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) and enhanced depth imaging OCT (EDIOCT). New Method: Eighty…
Organ at risk (OAR) segmentation in computed tomography (CT) imagery is a difficult task for automated segmentation methods and can be crucial for downstream radiation treatment planning. U-net has become a de-facto standard for medical…
Iris recognition is one of the most important biometric recognition method. This is because the iris texture provides many features such as freckles, coronas, stripes, furrows, crypts, etc. Those features are unique for different people and…
Automatic blood vessel segmentation from retinal images plays an important role in the diagnosis of many systemic and eye diseases, including retinopathy of prematurity. Current state-of-the-art research in blood vessel segmentation from…
