Abstract

The automated segmentation of brain tumor images is crucial in the auxiliary diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors. This paper proposes a brain tumor segmentation method, RAC-Net(Residual Adaptive Convolutional-Net) , that combines a residual mixed attention mechanism and adaptive feature fusion to address the problems of complex and variable lesions in brain tumor images, as well as blurred boundaries between lesions and the background. First, the Dual Dynamic Convolution Enhancement (DDCE) module enhances feature extraction flexibility and improves the adaptability of the model. Then, the Residual Mixed Attention (RMA) module extracts both global and local features from the image. Finally, the Adaptive Feature Fusion Module (AF2M) fuses deep and shallow features in the decoding path, thereby enriching the feature representation. Experiments on the public datasets BraTS2019 and BraTS2021 and cross-dataset validation with BraTS2023 show that RAC-Net outperforms most existing segmentation methods across various metrics, demonstrating its potential for assisting in the diagnosis of clinically relevant brain tumor diseases.
