Abstract
- Intracranial hemorrhage is a cerebral vascular disease with high mortality. Automotive diagnosing and segmentation of intracranial hemorrhage in Computed Tomography (CT) could assist the neurosurgeon in making treatment plans, which improves the survival rate. In this paper, we design a grouped capsule network named GroupCapsNet to segment the hemorrhage region from a Non-contract CT scan. In grouped capsule network, we constrain the prediction capsules for output capsules produced from different groups of input capsules with various types in each layer. This method can reduce the number of intermediate prediction capsules and accelerate the capsule network. In addition, we modify the squashing function to further accelerate the forward procedure without sacrificing its performance. We evaluate our proposed method with a collected dataset containing 210 intracranial hemorrhage CT scan slices. In experiments, our proposed method achieves competitive results in intracranial hemorrhage area segmentation compared to the existing methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
