• Abstract: Deep neural networks with multilevel connections process input data in complex ways to learn the information.A networks learning efficiency depends not only on the complex neural network architecture but also on the input training images.Medical image segmentation with deep neural networks for skull stripping or tumor segmentation from magnetic resonance images enables learning both global and local features of the images.Though medical images are collected in a controlled environment,there may be artifacts or equipment based variance that cause inherent bias in the input set.In this study, we investigated the correlation between the image quality metrics of MR images with the neural network segmentation accuracy.For that we have used the 3D DenseNet architecture and let the network trained on the same input but applying different methodologies to select the training data set based on the IQM values.The difference in the segmentation accuracy between models based on the random training inputs with IQM based training inputs shed light on the role of image quality metrics on segmentation accuracy.By running the image quality metrics to choose the training inputs,further we may tune the learning efficiency of the network and the segmentation accuracy.

  We propose the use of keypoint frequency selective mesh-to-grid resampling (FSMR) for the processing of input data for neural networks. We show that depending on the network architecture and classification task the application of FSMR during training aids learning process. The classification accuracy can be increased by up to 4.31 percentage points for ResNet50 and the Oxflower17 dataset.

  We systematically examine how neural network architecture choices affect how neural networks segment in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images. We find that for low-resolution TEM images which rely on amplitude contrast to distinguish nanoparticles from background, the receptive field does not significantly influence segmentation performance. On the other hand, for high-resolution TEM images which rely on a combination of amplitude and phase contrast changes to identify nanoparticles, receptive field is a key parameter for increased performance.

  We propose a noval multi-scale convolutional embedding module for hyperspectral images (HSI) to realize effective extraction of spatial-spectral information. Similar to Mask autoencoder, but our pre-training method only masks the corresponding token of the central pixel in the encoder, and inputs the remaining token into the decoder to reconstruct the spectral information of the central pixel.
