Deep Learning Models for Semantic Multi-Modal Medical Image Segmentation

Abstract

In this chapter, the author paints a comprehensive picture of different deep learning models used in different multi-modal image segmentation tasks. This chapter is an introduction for those new to the field, an overview for those working in the field, and a reference for those searching for literature on a specific application. Methods are classified according to the different types of multi-modal images and the corresponding types of convolution neural networks used in the segmentation task. The chapter starts with an introduction to CNN topology and describes various models like Hyper Dense Net, Organ Attention Net, UNet, VNet, Dilated Fully Convolutional Network, Transfer Learning, etc.
