U structured network with three encoding paths for breast tumor segmentation

Abstract Breast ultrasound segmentation remains challenging because of the blurred boundaries, irregular shapes, and the presence of shadowing and speckle noise. The majority of approaches stack convolutional layers to extract advanced semantic information, which makes it difficult to handle multisc...
