注意力机制在视网膜血管分割中的应用综述OA北大核心CSTPCD

Automatic segmentation of retinal vessels plays an important role in computer-aided diagnosis of ophthalmology and cardiovascular diseases.Attention mechanism can improve the efficiency and accuracy of image feature extraction in classical neural network models,so attention mechanism is widely used in retinal vessel segmentation models.This paper firstly reviews the commonly used datasets and evaluation metrics for retinal vessel segmentation,subsequently,attention mechanisms are categorized into two types:selective attention mechanisms and self-attention mechanisms,based on their working principles.Meanwhile,according to the data domain of computer vision tasks,attention methods are divided into three categories:channel attention,spatial attention,and mixed attention.Combined with the task of retinal vessel segmen-tation,the paper highlights the specific applications of representative attention models of these three types and conducts performance comparisons and evaluations of relevant models.Finally,the problems of attention mechanism and the devel-opment trend in the future are discussed.
