S-Net: a multiple cross aggregation convolutional architecture for automatic segmentation of small/thin structures for cardiovascular applications

With the success of U-Net or its variants in automatic medical image segmentation, building a fully convolutional network (FCN) based on an encoder-decoder structure has become an effective end-to-end learning approach. However, the intrinsic property of FCNs is that as the encoder deepens, higher-l...
