IDX-EFFİCİENTUNET: HİSTOPATOLOJİK GÖRÜNTÜLERDE ÇEKİRDEK SEGMENTASYONU İÇİN INDEX-DRİVEN ETİKETLEME MEKANİZMASINA SAHİP EFFİCİENTNETB7 TABANLI U-NET YÖNTEMİ

Öz

Histopatolojik görüntülerde hücre çekirdeklerinin doğru şekilde segmentasyonu, kanserin erken tanısı ve sınıflandırılması açısından büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada, U-Net temelli bir çekirdek segmentasyon modeli geliştirilmiş ve derin özellik çıkarımı için EfficientNetB7 kodlayıcı kullanılmıştır. Model, farklı çözünürlük seviyelerinden gelen bilgileri bütünleştirerek, karmaşık hücresel yapılardan anlamlı öznitelikler çıkarmakta ve segmentasyon doğruluğunu artırmaktadır. Ayrıca, eğitim verilerinde etiket tutarsızlıklarını ortadan kaldırmak üzere, maske sınıflarını otomatik olarak sayısal değerlere eşleyen “Index-Driven” adlı bir etiketleme mekanizması önerilmiştir. Bu yaklaşım, özellikle birden fazla kaynaktan elde edilen verilerin tekil sınıf temelli ikili segmentasyon için tutarlı biçimde hazırlanmasını sağlamaktadır. Gerçekleştirilen deneysel çalışmalar, bu mimari ve etiketleme bütünlüğünün, modelin segmentasyon doğruluğunu anlamlı düzeyde artırdığını ve literatürdeki yöntemlerle rekabet edebilecek bir performans sunduğunu göstermektedir.
