Breast tumor segmentation in ultrasound using distance-adapted fuzzy connectedness, convolutional neural network, and active contour

Abstract This study addresses computer-aided breast cancer diagnosis through a hybrid framework for breast tumor segmentation in ultrasound images. The core of the three-stage method is based on the autoencoder convolutional neural network. In the first stage, we prepare a hybrid pseudo-color image...
