dc.description.abstractAutomated lung segmentation has importance because it gives clues about several diseases to the experts. It is the step that comes before further detailed analyses of the lungs. However, segmentation of the lungs is a challenging task since the opacities and consolidations are caused by various lung diseases. As a result, the clarity of the borders of the lungs may be lost which makes the segmentation task difficult. The presence of various medical equipment such as cables in the image is another factor that makes segmentation difficult. Therefore, it is a necessity to develop methods that can handle such situations. Learning the most useful patterns related to various diseases is possible with deep learning methods. Unlike conventional methods, learning the patterns improves the generalization ability of the models on unseen data. For this purpose, a deep segmentation framework including ensembles of pre-trained lightweight networks is proposed for lung region segmentation in this work. The experimental results achieved on two publicly available data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
