Transformer Based UNet

Transformer-based UNets represent a hybrid approach to image segmentation and related tasks, combining the strengths of convolutional neural networks (UNets) for local feature extraction with the global context modeling capabilities of transformers. Current research focuses on improving efficiency, particularly for 3D medical image analysis, through techniques like low-rank adaptation, spatially dynamic attention mechanisms, and novel attention modules within the UNet architecture. These advancements aim to enhance accuracy and reduce computational costs in applications such as medical image segmentation, object counting, and image synthesis, ultimately improving the speed and precision of analysis across various domains.
