VGG16-MCA UNet is a hybrid neural network that combines an ImageNet‑pretrained VGG16 encoder with a decoder enhanced by a Multi‑Channel Attention module, trained using Focal Tversky loss to address class imbalance. The model was evaluated as a 2‑D, FLAIR‑only whole‑tumor segmenter on BraTS 2020 and LGG datasets, achieving a pixel‑level Dice of 95.10 % on BraTS and 88.32 % on LGG in a 5‑fold cross‑validation setting. Inference time is 66.32 ms per 256×256 slice on a single RTX 2060, only slightly slower than a VGG16‑UNet without attention.
whyItMatters":"The study provides a reproducible 2‑D FLAIR baseline for whole‑tumor segmentation, demonstrating high Dice scores and detailed reporting of training and evaluation protocols."

The paper introduces MSM‑Seg, a dual‑memory segmentation framework for 3D multi‑modal brain tumor segmentation. It combines a modality‑and‑slice memory attention module to capture cross‑modal and spatial‑slice dependencies, a multi‑scale category‑agnostic prompt encoder for whole‑tumor guidance, and a modality‑adaptive fusion decoder to integrate complementary decoding information. Experiments on various MRI datasets show that MSM‑Seg surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods for metastases and glioma tumor segmentation.

The paper presents a lightweight, energy‑efficient lung tumor segmentation model that combines the ENet architecture with UNet‑style skip connections and a lightweight Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM). Trained on TCIA data and evaluated on LIDC‑IDRI, the model achieves a Dice score of 0.90812 while using only 430,052 parameters and 0.549 GMAC, making it up to 10 times faster and far less computationally demanding than UNet or SegNet. Grad‑CAM is employed to provide visual interpretability and highlight areas needing improvement.
