RESUMEN
Deep convolutional neural networks have made significant strides in the field of medical image segmentation. Although existing convolutional structures enhance performance by leveraging local image information, they often lose the interdependence information between contexts. Therefore, the article utilizes the multi-attention mechanism of the Transformer structure to more comprehensively express relationships between contexts and introduced the Transformer network architecture into the field of medical image segmentation. Most models based on this Transformer structure typically require large datasets for training. However, in the medical field, the limited size of datasets makes training models with the Transformer structure challenging. To address this, the article propose a Weighted Medical Transformer (WMT) model that imposes low requirements on dataset quantity. The weighting mechanism in the WMT model aims to improve the issue of inaccurate relative positional coding when dealing with small medical datasets. Additionally, a coarse-grained and fine-grained segmentation mechanism is introduced, focusing on both the detailed aspects within image blocks and the boundary information connecting blocks. Experimental results on a liver dataset demonstrate that the model achieves F1 and IoU scores of 88.48% and 79.41%, respectively. Results on the MoNuSeg dataset show comparable high F1 and IoU scores of 79.58% and 66.19%, respectively. The model's accuracy surpasses that of U-Net++ and U-Net models. Compared to other models, this approach is applicable to scenarios with limited datasets, exhibiting high execution efficiency and accuracy.
