Sparse Codebook Model of Local Structures for Retrieval of Focal Liver Lesions Using Multiphase Medical Images by Jian Wang, Xian-Hua Han, Yingying Xu, Lanfen Lin, Hongjie Hu, Chongwu Jin, Yen-Wei Chen

“…The character analysis of a unconfirmed FLL case would be expected to benefit greatly from the accumulated FLL cases with experts’ analysis, which can be achieved by content-based medical image retrieval (CBMIR). CBMIR mainly includes discriminated feature extraction and similarity calculation procedures. …”

CGDINet: A Deep Learning-Based Salient Object Detection Algorithm by Chengyu Hu, Jianxin Guo, Hanfei Xie, Qing Zhu, Baoxi Yuan, Yujie Gao, Xiangyang Ma, Jialu Chen, Juan Tian

“…Salient object detection (SOD) is a key preprocessing step in computer vision, widely used in object tracking, action recognition, and image retrieval, among other fields. However, traditional SOD algorithms often face issues such as rough object boundaries, incomplete extraction of global image features, and insufficient attention to key areas. …”
