• Title: DR-Unet104 for Multimodal MRI brain tumor segmentation
• Authors: Jordan Colman, Lei Zhang, Wenting Duan and Xujiong Ye
• Abstract summary: We propose a 2D deep residual Unet with 104 convolutional layers (DR-Unet104) for lesion segmentation in brain MRIs. We make multiple additions to the Unet architecture, including adding the 'bottleneck' residual block to the Unet encoder and adding dropout after each convolution block stack. We produced a competitive lesion segmentation architecture, despite only 2D convolutions, having the added benefit that it can be used on lower power computers.

• Abstract: In this paper we propose a 2D deep residual Unet with 104 convolutional layers (DR-Unet104) for lesion segmentation in brain MRIs. We make multiple additions to the Unet architecture, including adding the 'bottleneck' residual block to the Unet encoder and adding dropout after each convolution block stack. We verified the effect of introducing the regularisation of dropout with small rate (e.g. 0.2) on the architecture, and found a dropout of 0.2 improved the overall performance compared to no dropout, or a dropout of 0.5. We evaluated the proposed architecture as part of the Multimodal Brain Tumor Segmentation (BraTS) 2020 Challenge and compared our method to DeepLabV3+ with a ResNet-V2-152 backbone. We found that the DR-Unet104 achieved a mean dice score coefficient of 0.8862, 0.6756 and 0.6721 for validation data, whole tumor, enhancing tumor and tumor core respectively, an overall improvement on 0.8770, 0.65242 and 0.68134 achieved by DeepLabV3+. Our method produced a final mean DSC of 0.8673, 0.7514 and 0.7983 on whole tumor, enhancing tumor and tumor core on the challenge's testing data. We produced a competitive lesion segmentation architecture, despite only 2D convolutions, having the added benefit that it can be used on lower power computers than a 3D architecture.

We compare 2D variational autoencoder (VAE) to their 3D counterpart, propose 3D input erasing, and systemically study the impact of the data set size on the performance. Our best performing 3D VAE with input erasing leads to an average DICE score of 31.40% compared to 25.76% for the 2D VAE.

  We utilize 3-D fully convolutional neural networks (CNN) to segment gliomas and its constituents from multimodal Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) The architecture uses dense connectivity patterns to reduce the number of weights and residual connections and is 0.448 with weights obtained from training this model with BraTS 2018 dataset. Hard mining is done during training to train for the difficult cases of segmentation tasks by increasing the dice similarity coefficient (DSC) threshold to choose the hard cases as epoch increases.
