Background
The existing methods for detecting lung nodules in a lung CT image by adopting a deep learning algorithm are many, but the detection accuracy is not high. The main reasons for the low precision are:

(2) Lung nodules are disproportionate in size and smaller lung nodules are easily overlooked.
Based on the two reasons, the lung nodules detected and segmented by the deep learning algorithm are insufficient in typicality and representativeness.
Therefore, improving the accuracy of pulmonary nodule detection and training the network to segment more representative nodules become problems to be solved urgently.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the scope of the invention, are intended for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for establishing a lung nodule segmentation apparatus according to an embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, the method for establishing a pulmonary nodule segmentation apparatus provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:
and S101, establishing a training sample.
In general, the entire image is input as an object detection model. However, since the 3-dimensional CT image is too large, the conventional GPU cannot meet the requirement of the memory capacity, and the CT image cannot be directly input to the object detection model. In order to ensure good resolution, the present embodiment cannot compress the CT at will, so as to avoid losing many important information and being unfavorable to the detection result. Therefore, the acquired three-dimensional lung CT image is cut into a large number of cube patches. The cube tile is used as the input of the model. Specifically, a 128 × 128 × 128 (pixel) cube patch is cropped to the three-dimensional lung CT image according to the following conditions:
the first condition is as follows: 70% of the cube blocks contain at least one lung nodule target;
and a second condition: randomly selecting 30% cube small blocks from the whole lung;
if the cube contains regions beyond the lungs, filling the non-lung regions with meaningless values 170 in the CT image;
pixels of the lung nodule region are taken as positive samples, and pixels of other regions are taken as negative samples.
It should be noted that the lung nodule is not necessarily located in the center of the cube, and the pixel of the lung nodule region is a positive sample as long as it exists in the cube.
And after cutting, processing the cube small blocks by adopting a data enhancement method so as to increase the robustness of the training sample and relieve the over-fitting problem.
Since the number of negative samples far exceeds that of positive samples and the distribution is highly unbalanced, most of the samples appear to be easily distinguished, but there are some negative samples with suspected nodules having similar appearances. The embodiment adopts a hard-to-separate sample mining method to solve the problem. The specific process is as follows:
firstly, calculating the enhanced cube small blocks by using the lung nodule detection network provided by the invention, and outputting the classification confidence coefficient of each pixel, wherein the closer the classification confidence coefficient is to 1, the higher the probability that the cube small blocks contain lung nodules is, the closer the classification confidence coefficient is to 0, and the higher the probability that the cube small blocks do not contain lung nodules is;
then, calculating an absolute value of the difference between the classification confidence and the truth label, wherein the larger the absolute value is, the more difficult the negative sample is to be distinguished by the network;
finally, 2n negative samples and n positive samples which are most difficult to distinguish are selected to form a training sample set.
And S102, establishing a pulmonary nodule detection network.
As shown in fig. 2, the pulmonary nodule detection network includes a pulmonary nodule segmentation network including 128 × 128(24) convolution units 201, 64 × 64(32) residual convolution units 202, 32 × 32(64) residual convolution units 203 connected in sequence, the output feature maps of 16 × 16(64) residual convolution unit 204, 8 × 8(64) residual convolution unit 205, 16 × 16(64) residual convolution unit 206 and 16 × 16(64) residual convolution unit 206 are spliced according to channels and then input to 32 × 32(64) residual convolution unit 207, and the output feature maps of 32 × 32(64) residual convolution unit 207 and 32 × 32(64) residual convolution unit 203 are spliced according to channels and then input to RPN network 208 to realize pulmonary nodule detection on the input maps.
The 128 x 128(24) convolution unit 201 and all residual convolution units are used to perform feature extraction on the input map.
In fig. 2, R represents a splicing operation, that is, the feature map output from the 32 × 32(64) residual convolution unit 207 and the feature map output from the 32 × 32(64) residual convolution unit 203 are spliced according to channels.
64 × 64(32) residual convolution unit 202 includes three sequentially connected 32-dimensional input residual units I, as shown in fig. 3, each residual unit I includes sequentially connected 32-dimensional input, 8-dimensional output, convolution layer with convolution kernel of 1 × 1, convolution layer with 8-dimensional input, 8-dimensional output, convolution kernel of 3 × 3, convolution layer with 8-dimensional input, 32-dimensional output, convolution kernel of 1 × 1, each convolution layer is used for feature extraction, and after adding between output feature map and input feature map of three convolution layer cascade, it is activated by RELU function.
Each of the 32 × 32(64) residual convolution units 203, 16 × 16(64) residual convolution units 204, and 8 × 8(64) residual convolution units 205 includes three sequentially connected 64-dimensional input residual units II. As shown in fig. 4, each residual unit II includes sequentially connected convolutional layers with 64-dimensional input, 16-dimensional output, and 1 × 1 convolutional kernels, convolutional layers with 16-dimensional input, 16-dimensional output, and 3 × 3 convolutional kernels, and convolutional layers with 16-dimensional input, 64-dimensional output, and 1 × 1 convolutional kernels, each convolutional layer is used for feature extraction, and after adding the output feature maps and the input feature maps of the cascade of the three convolutional layers, the residual units are activated by the RELU function.
Each of the 16 × 16(64) residual convolution units 206 and 32 × 32(64) residual convolution units 207 includes two sequentially connected 64-dimensional input residual units II.
The shapes m (L) represent input and input picture sizes m, and the number of channels L. For example: the 128 x 128(24) convolution unit represents the input and output picture size as 128 x 128, and the number of channels as 24.
The RPN (Region pro-social Networks) network 208 is a regional Proposal network, consisting of 2 consecutive convolutional layers for extracting high confidence regions for the target problem. The RPN network 208 is configured to compute an input feature map and output a set of rectangular target suggestion boxes and a prediction score for each suggestion box. For the present embodiment, the RPN network 208 calculates the input lung nodule feature map, outputs the predicted lung nodule coordinates, diameter and probability, and implements classification and regression on the input image.
In this embodiment, in the pulmonary nodule detection network, the RELU function is an activation function, specifically, f (x) ═ max (0, x).

in which

and S103, training a pulmonary nodule detection network to obtain the pulmonary nodule detection device.
For a set of training samples, although very small nodule objects are removed from the training samples in the set, there still remains a problem with nodule size and its imbalance, with the number of small nodules far exceeding large ones. If uniform sampling is used, learning of the network may be more inclined toward detection of nodules while sacrificing the accuracy of detection of nodules, which is contrary to the objects of the present invention. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, in this embodiment, the sampling frequency of the large nodule is increased for the training sample set. The method comprises the following specific steps:
sampling small blocks with the sampling frequency of 2 times and the lung nodules larger than 30mm in a training sample set, sampling small blocks with the sampling frequency of 6 times and the lung nodules larger than 40mm in the training sample set, sampling the lung nodules with other sizes at the normal sampling frequency, inputting the sampled training samples into a lung nodule detection network, and training the lung nodule detection network to target the error convergence of the prediction output and the real output of the lung nodule detection network to obtain the lung nodule detection device.
In the training process, the gradient of the network parameters is solved by adopting a chain rule. When the derivative value of the error to each parameter is obtained, the current gradient value is obtained. According to the gradient descent algorithm, the product of the gradient vector and the learning rate is subtracted from the parameter vector to form a parameter iteration process. And (3) taking the loss function value that the average value of the loss functions L of the continuous 3 epochs is lower than the previous epoch as a convergence target, and obtaining a final parameter vector through multiple parameter iterations, namely obtaining the lung nodule prediction device.
After obtaining the lung nodule segmentation device, preprocessing a sample to be detected (a lung CT image to be detected) according to the content in S101, inputting the preprocessed sample to the lung nodule detection device, and calculating to obtain the lung nodule probability, the coordinates and the diameter of the sample to be detected.
The experimental comparison shows that: a residual network is introduced into the pulmonary nodule detection network, that is, the recall rate of the pulmonary nodule detection network provided in this embodiment is 95%, the epoch number required for convergence is 60, and when the residual network is not introduced, the recall rate of the network is 85%, and the epoch number required for convergence is 70. Thus, the introduction of the residual network provides recall, training speed and stability of the pulmonary nodule detection network. In addition, when a sample to be tested is predicted, the method is obviously obtained, the lung nodule detection device obtained by introducing the residual error network has higher test speed, and the test result is more accurate.
The above-mentioned embodiments are intended to illustrate the technical solutions and advantages of the present invention, and it should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments are only the most preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention, and any modifications, additions, equivalents, etc. made within the scope of the principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of the present invention.
