• Abstract summary: We use BO to optimize the architectural and training-related hyper parameters of a deep convolutional neural network model. Dice overlaps of 0.95, 0.96, and 0.93 on left ventricular (LV) endocardium, LV epicardium, and left atrium respectively. We also observe significant improvement in derived clinical indices, including smaller median absolute errors for LV end-diastolic volume.

• Abstract: Bayesian Optimization (BO) is a well-studied hyperparameter tuning technique that is more efficient than grid search for high-cost, high-parameter machine learning problems. Echocardiography is a ubiquitous modality for evaluating heart structure and function in cardiology. In this work, we use BO to optimize the architectural and training-related hyperparameters of a previously published deep fully convolutional neural network model for multi-structure segmentation in echocardiography. In a fair comparison, the resulting model outperforms this recent state-of-the-art on the annotated CAMUS dataset in both apical two- and four-chamber echo views. We report mean Dice overlaps of 0.95, 0.96, and 0.93 on left ventricular (LV) endocardium, LV epicardium, and left atrium respectively. We also observe significant improvement in derived clinical indices, including smaller median absolute errors for LV end-diastolic volume (4.9mL vs. 6.7), end-systolic volume (3.1mL vs. 5.2), and ejection fraction (2.6% vs. 3.7); and much tighter limits of agreement, which were already within inter-rater variability for non-contrast echo. These results demonstrate the benefits of BO for echocardiography segmentation over a recent state-of-the-art framework, although validation using large-scale independent clinical data is required.

  It is crucial to develop robust algorithms for the precise segmentation of the heart structure during different phases. In this work, an improved 3D UNet model is introduced to segment the myocardium and LV, while excluding papillary muscles. For the practical testing of the proposed framework, a total of 8,400 cardiac MRI images were collected and analysed.

  Existing video-based methods do not pay much attention to the left ventricular region, nor the left ventricular changes caused by motion. We propose a semi-supervised auxiliary learning paradigm with a left ventricular segmentation task, which contributes to the representation learning for the left ventricular region. Our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on the Stanford dataset with an improvement of 0.22 MAE, 0.26 RMSE, and 1.9% $R2$.

  A large training data set is required for a standard deep learning-based model to learn this strategy from data. We propose an augmentation method that generates artificial training samples by recombining vessel tree segmentations of the hemispheres from different patients. In line with the augmentation scheme, we use a 3D-DenseNet fed with task-specific input, fostering a side-by-side comparison between the hemispheres.

  The aim of this work is to develop an accurate automatic segmentation method based on deep learning models for the myocardial borders on LGE-MRI.

The performance analysis of the proposed ensemble model in the basal and middle slices was similar as compared to intra-observer study and slightly lower at apical slices.
