Abstract
Segmentation of colorectal polyps is essential for colorectal cancer prevention. The accuracy of segmentation is affected by the diversity of shapes, sizes, and textures of colorectal polyps, as well as unclear polyp boundaries. Therefore, we propose a joint HarDNetV2 and attention mechanism for polyp image segmentation network. The encoder uses HarDNetV2 to extract backbone features to improve inference speed and computational efficiency. The decoder includes an attention gate module (AG) and a convolutional attention module (CAM), in which the AG module fuses the extracted features of different sizes, the CAM module groups features into pixels and uses channel and spatial attention to suppress background information, which enhances the recognition of polyp regions and improves segmentation performance. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves 92.17% and 88.16% performance for mDice and mIOU on the Kvasir-SEG dataset, respectively.
