Abstract

Lung CT image segmentation is a necessary initial step for lung image analysis, it is a prerequisite step to provide an accurate lung CT image analysis such as lung cancer detection. In this work, we propose a lung CT image segmentation using the U-net architecture, one of the most used architectures in deep learning for image segmentation. The architecture consists of a contracting path to extract high-level information and a symmetric expanding path that recovers the information needed. This network can be trained end-to-end from very few images and outperforms many methods. Experimental results show an accurate segmentation with 0.9502 Dice-Coefficient index.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
