UNet++ leads deep learning models in dental radiograph segmentation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have conducted a comparative evaluation of four deep learning models—PSPNet, DeepLabv3, UNet, and UNet++—for semantic segmentation of dental radiographs. The study utilized 1269 dental radiography images and assessed model performance using metrics like Dice coefficient and Intersection over Union (IoU). Results indicated that UNet++ achieved the highest IoU score of 0.6719 and a Dice value of 0.7869, demonstrating superior segmentation capabilities, particularly with an image size of 300x300 and a batch size of 16. The research also explored the impact of image resolutions and batch sizes on model accuracy across different architectures, offering insights into deep learning for automated dental radiograph analysis.
