Abstract

In order to segregate liver tumours in medical imaging applications, a novel architecture called Selective Attention UNet is proposed in this article. The suggested architecture, which is based on the well-known UNet architecture, has a selective attention module that enables the network to concentrate on crucial tasks while suppressing unnecessary ones. Link skipping between the encoder and decoder routes is another element of the design that enables the network to effectively segment data using both low-level and high-level attributes. On the publicly accessible LiTS dataset, we assessed the performance of the suggested architecture and contrasted it with four fundamental models: FCN, UNet, UNet++, and SegNet. The Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) of 0.89 a mean IOU of 0.76 obtained in our experiments demonstrates that the suggested architecture beats all baseline models in terms of accuracy and robustness criteria.
