The study evaluates four deep‑learning segmentation architectures—Unet, PSPNet, Linknet, and FPN—paired with six pre‑trained encoders to predict COVID‑19 lesions in CT images. Experiments on three COVID‑19 CT datasets show high accuracy, achieving a maximum binary F1‑score of 98% and multi‑class F1‑scores of 75% and 77%. The work aims to provide a standardized performance benchmark for medical image segmentation and a reference for other imaging scenarios.
arXiv:2608. 15915v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, while histopathological diagnosis is often affected by inter-observer variability and the substantial workload associated with manual slide examination.
This study presents a clinically relevant framework for evaluating deep neural networks that segment lymphoma lesions in PET/CT images, addressing gaps such as out‑of‑distribution testing and comparison with expert annotators. Using 611 multi‑institutional cases, the authors assess four networks (ResUNet, SegResNet, DynUNet, SwinUNETR) with lesion‑specific metrics, detection criteria, and metabolic‑characteristic‑based thresholds, finding that models perform best on large, intense lesions. The work also demonstrates that network errors mirror those of physicians, highlighting shared challenges with small, faint lesions.

The article presents a comparative study of convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures for classifying COVID-19 from healthy lung images using CT and X‑ray scans. Multiple pre‑trained models—including VGG, DenseNet, ResNet, MobileNet, Xception, Inception, EfficientNet, and NasNet—were evaluated on two X‑ray and two CT datasets. ResNet and VGG achieved the highest accuracies, ranging from 95% to 98%, outperforming previous reports in the literature.
