| Abstract | Pre-segmentation is known as a crucial step in medical image analysis. Many approaches have been proposed to make improvement to both the quality and efficiency of segmentation. However, existing methods are lacking in robustness to the variation in the edges and textures of the target. In order to address these drawbacks, a novel attention Gabor network (AGnet) based on deep learning for medical image segmentation that is capable of automatically paying more attention to the edge and consistently for improvement to the segmentation performance is proposed. The proposed model consists of two components. The first one is to determine the approximate location of the organs of interest in the image using convolution filters, and the other one is to highlight salient edge features intended for a specific segmentation task using Gabor filters. In order to facilitate collaboration in between the two parts, a region attention mechanism based on Gabor maps is suggested. The mechanism improved performance by learning to focus on the salient regions of the image that are useful for the authors' tasks. As indicated by the experimental results, the AGnet is capable of enhancing the prediction performance while maintaining the computational efficiency, which makes it comparable with other state-of-the-art approaches. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
