Abstract

This paper presents a novel Multipath Densely Connected Convolutional Neural Network (MDCNN) for automatically segmenting glioma with unknown sizes, shapes and positions. Our network architecture is based on the Multipath Convolutional Neural Network [21], which considers both local and contextual patches of segmentation information, including original MRI images, symmetry information and spatial information. Motivated to reduce the feature loss induced by under-utility of feature maps, we propose to fuse feature maps from original local and contextual paths at three different units and introduce three more densely connected paths. Consequently, three auxiliary segmentation paths together with original local and contextural paths forms the complete segmentation network. The model’s training and validation are performed on the BraTS2017 dataset. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed network is capable to effectively extract more accurate tumor locations and contours with improved stability.
