Abstract

In this paper, a novel 3D deep learning network is proposed for brain MR image segmentation with randomized connection, which can decrease the dependency between layers and increase the network capacity. The convolutional LSTM and 3D convolution are employed as network units to capture the long-term and short-term 3D properties respectively. To assemble these two kinds of spatial-temporal information and refine the deep learning outcomes, we further introduce an efficient graph-based node selection and label inference method. Experiments have been carried out on the publicly available database and results demonstrate that the proposed method can obtain the best performance as compared with other state-of-the-art methods.
