Enhanced DeepLab Based Nerve Segmentation with Optimized Tuning

Abstract

Nerve segmentation is crucial in medical imaging for precise identification of nerve structures. This study presents an optimized DeepLabV3-based segmentation pipeline that incorporates automated threshold fine-tuning to improve segmentation accuracy. By refining preprocessing steps and implementing parameter optimization, we achieved a Dice Score of 0.78, an IoU of 0.70, and a Pixel Accuracy of 0.95 on ultrasound nerve imaging. The results demonstrate significant improvements over baseline models and highlight the importance of tailored parameter selection in automated nerve detection.
