DSPM-R2U: Dynamic tanh shape prior module with recurrent residual convolutional neural network for lung nodule segmentation in CT images
摘要
Lung cancer continues to be a major cause of cancer-related deaths, underscoring the importance of early detection of lung nodules. Nevertheless, accurately segmenting these nodules in CT images is challenging due to their morphological heterogeneity, indistinct boundaries, and variable sizes. This study proposes the Dynamic Tanh Shape Prior Module with Recurrent Residual Convolutional Neural Network (DSPM-R2U), an advanced segmentation model for lung nodule in CT images. The proposed model employs the Dynamic Tanh Shape Prior Module (DSPM) to replace traditional LayerNorm with Dynamic Tanh (DyT), adaptively adjusting feature map scaling through a learnable parameter
