• Abstract: Fully-automatic lung lobe segmentation is challenging due to anatomical variations, pathologies, and incomplete fissures. We trained a 3D u-net for pulmonary lobe segmentation on 49 mainly publically available datasets and introduced a weighted Dice loss function to emphasize the lobar boundaries. To validate the performance of the proposed method we compared the results to two other methods. The new loss function improved the mean distance to 1.46 mm (compared to 2.08 mm for simple loss function without weighting).

• An Efficient and Robust Method for Chest X-Ray Rib Suppression that Improves Pulmonary Abnormality Diagnosis [0.49998148477760956]
  Suppression of thoracic bone shadows on chest X-rays (CXRs) has been indicated to improve the diagnosis of pulmonary disease. Previous approaches can be categorized as unsupervised physical and supervised deep learning models. We propose a generalizable yet efficient workflow of two stages: (1) training pairs generation with GT bone shadows eliminated in minimization by a physical model in spatially transformed gradient fields. (2) fully supervised image denoising network training on stage-one datasets for fast rib removal on incoming CXRs.

  In this paper, we argue that one effective alternative is to devise an approximate loss who can achieve trend-level alignment with SkewIoU loss. Specifically, we model the objects as Gaussian distribution and adopt Kalman filter to inherently mimic the mechanism of SkewIoU. The resulting new loss called KFIoU is easier to implement and works better compared with exact SkewIoU.

  Dilation convolution is a critical mutant of standard convolution neural network to control effective receptive fields and handle large scale variance of objects. We propose a new mutant of dilated convolution, namely inception (dilated) convolution where the convolutions have independent dilation among different axes, channels and layers. We explore a practical method for fitting the complex inception convolution to the data, a simple while effective dilation search algorithm(EDO) based on statistical optimization is developed.
