Residual UNet

Residual UNets are a class of convolutional neural networks used for image segmentation tasks, primarily aiming to improve accuracy and efficiency by incorporating residual connections within the U-Net architecture. Current research focuses on enhancing performance through modifications like incorporating attention mechanisms, specialized loss functions (e.g., Generalized Dice Focal Loss), and hybrid approaches combining UNets with other architectures (e.g., 3DResNet). These advancements are significantly impacting various fields, including medical image analysis (e.g., brain tumor and lesion segmentation in PET/CT scans, retinal vessel segmentation) and remote sensing (e.g., marine debris detection, precipitation nowcasting), by enabling more accurate and automated image analysis.
