Abstract Purpose Accurate segmentation of brain resection cavities (RCs) aids in postoperative analysis and determining follow-up treatment. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are the state-of-the-art image segmentation technique, but require large annotated datasets for training. Annotation of 3D medical images is time-consuming, requires highly trained raters and may suffer from high inter-rater variability. Self-supervised learning strategies can leverage unlabeled data for training. Methods We developed an algorithm to simulate resections from preoperative magnetic resonance images (MRIs). We performed self-supervised training of a 3D CNN for RC segmentation using our simulation method. We curated EPISURG, a dataset comprising 430 postoperative and 268 preoperative MRIs from 430 refractory epilepsy patients who underwent resective neurosurgery. We fine-tuned our model on three small annotated datasets from different institutions and on the annotated images in EPISURG, comprising 20, 33, 19 and 133 subjects. Results The model trained on data with simulated resections obtained median (interquartile range) Dice score coefficients (DSCs) of 81.7 (16.4), 82.4 (36.4), 74.9 (24.2) and 80.5 (18.7) for each of the four datasets. After fine-tuning, DSCs were 89.2 (13.3), 84.1 (19.8), 80.2 (20.1) and 85.2 (10.8). For comparison, inter-rater agreement between human annotators from our previous study was 84.0 (9.9). Conclusion We present a self-supervised learning strategy for 3D CNNs using simulated RCs to accurately segment real RCs on postoperative MRI. Our method generalizes well to data from different institutions, pathologies and modalities. Source code, segmentation models and the EPISURG dataset are available at https://github.com/fepegar/resseg-ijcars.

AbstractBackgroundThe successful application of deep learning in medical images requires a large amount of annotation data for supervised training. However, massive labeling of medical data is expensive and time consuming. This paper proposes a semi-supervised deep learning method for the detection and classification of benign and malignant breast nodules in ultrasound images, which include two phases.MethodsThe nodule position in the ultrasound image is firstly detected using the faster RCNN network. Second, the recognition network is used to identify the benign and malignant types of nodules. The method in this paper uses a semi-supervised learning strategy, using 800 labeled nodules and 4396 unlabeled nodules.ResultsBased on mean teacher training strategy, the proposed semi-supervised network has obtained excellent results, which is similar to currently used with supervised training networks. On the two test data sets, the AUC of semi-supervised learning and supervised learning were: 93.7% vs 94.2% and 92% vs 92.3%.ConclusionsThe paper proves that semi-supervised learning strategies have good application potential in medical images. Based on a special learning strategy, the result of semi-supervised learning is expected to achieve close or even achieve similar result of supervised deep learning, which only need a small number of labeled samples and a large number of unlabeled samples. It means deep learning analysis of breast lesion will be more feasible and more efficient.

Makeup can disguise facial features, which results in degradation in the performance of many facial-related analysis systems, including face recognition, facial landmark characterisation, aesthetic quantification and automated age estimation methods. Thus, facial makeup is likely to directly affect several real-life applications such as cosmetology and virtual cosmetics recommendation systems, security and access control, and social interaction. In this work, we conduct a comparative study and design automated facial makeup detection systems leveraging multiple learning schemes from a single unconstrained photograph. We have investigated and studied the efficacy of deep learning models for makeup detection incorporating the use of transfer learning strategy with semi-supervised learning using labelled and unlabelled data. First, during the supervised learning, the VGG16 convolution neural network, pre-trained on a large dataset, is fine-tuned on makeup labelled data. Secondly, two unsupervised learning methods, which are self-learning and convolutional auto-encoder, are trained on unlabelled data and then incorporated with supervised learning during semi-supervised learning. Comprehensive experiments and comparative analysis have been conducted on 2479 labelled images and 446 unlabelled images collected from six challenging makeup datasets. The obtained results reveal that the convolutional auto-encoder merged with supervised learning gives the best makeup detection performance achieving an accuracy of 88.33% and area under ROC curve of 95.15%. The promising results obtained from conducted experiments reveal and reflect the efficiency of combining different learning strategies by harnessing labelled and unlabelled data. It would also be advantageous to the beauty industry to develop such computational intelligence methods.

This writing aims to make students more active and disciplined in the learning process and can also increase creativity and learning outcomes. The low mathematics learning outcomes are not only due to difficult mathematics, but are caused by several factors which include students themselves, teachers, learning approaches, and learning environments that are interconnected with each other. To improve the ability and results of learning it is necessary to make modifications to the task learning strategy and force. Quantum learning is a tip, a guide, a strategy and an entire learning process that can sharpen understanding and memory, and make learning a pleasant and useful process. Task and Forced Learning Strategies are strategies that focus on giving assignments and a little coercion so that students complete their tasks on time so that the learning process can run effectively. Therefore, the writer modifies the model of quantum learning with task and forced learning strategies, the results of this modification show that learning with quantum learning models with forced and task strategies can improve the learning process so that students become more disciplined in doing tasks, can motivate student learning, and can improve student learning outcomes.

Foramen magnum (FM) meningiomas are challenging lesions. We present the case of a 38-year-old female with neck pain, dysphonia, and slight twelfth nerve palsy. Imaging workup was highly suggestive of an FM meningioma, and microsurgical resection with the aid of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring was indicated. A transcondylar approach was employed, the vertebral artery was mobilized, and the tumor was completely removed. Postoperative MRI demonstrated complete resection. There were no signs of cervical instability. The patient presented with improvement of her symptoms and no new neurological deficit on follow-up. FM meningiomas can be successfully resected using a transcondylar approach, since it increases the exposure of the ventral FM, allowing the surgeon to work parallel to the skull base and flush with the tumor’s attachment. Informed consent was obtained from the patient for publication of this operative video.The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/itfUOB-6zM0.
