Abstract
Image segmentation has steadily grown especially for clinical usage and disease recognition in radiological research. This procedure, aimed at acquiring quantitative measurements, strives to distinguish regions or objects of interest from adjacent body tissues. To be more specific, it entails measuring the area and volume of segmented structures to extract more refined diagnostic information. The main hurdles encountered by segmentation algorithms originate from challenges like variations in intensity, artifacts, and the close juxtaposition of diverse soft tissues in the grayscale. In this paper, a robust semantic segmentation is proposed to specify the infected regions of lung images and consider the severity degree of the pneumonia caused by COVID-19 disease. The proposed model provides an accurate diagnosis of the chest CT scan image with satisfied performance with 93% accuracy and the second most important metric which is the Jaccard Index with 0.746±0.09 shows higher prediction performance than most existing systems in the literature.
