摘要

This research introduces the Multi-branch Residual Convolutional Neural Network (MRes-CNN) to enhance the accuracy of colorectal histopathological image classification. MRes-CNN incorporates MRes Blocks and Attention Module, optimizing efficiency in analyzing images. Employing the open-sourced Enteroscope Biopsy Histopathological Hematoxylin and Eosin Image Dataset (EBHI) for empirical validation, MRes-CNN achieves an impressive average accuracy of 92.44% across three experiments, significantly outperforming 21 existing deep learning (DL) models. Ablation studies confirm the crucial roles of MRes Blocks and Attention Module in enhancing model performance. These findings underscore the potential of MRes-CNN to transform colorectal histopathological image classification, promising substantial benefits for clinical practice and medical research.
