Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Understanding and using complex, high-dimensional, and heterogeneous biological data continues to be a major challenge in the transformation of healthcare. Feature engineering is generally required in traditional data mining and statistical learning techniques for building prediction models to extract useful and more robust features from data. New efficient paradigms for creating end-to-end learning models from complex data are provided by the most recent advancements in deep learning.

The aim of this Special Issue is to examine the state-of-the-art deep learning techniques employed for different problems in the field of biomedical engineering. We invite authors to contribute original research articles and reviews related to deep learning for biomedical engineering. Articles that examine cutting-edge deep learning methods will be highly appreciated.

Accurate tooth segmentation and numbering are the cornerstones of efficient automatic dental diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, a multitask learning architecture has been proposed for accurate tooth segmentation and numbering in panoramic X-ray images. A graph convolution network was applied for the automatic annotation of the target region, a modified convolutional neural network-based detection subnetwork (DSN) was used for tooth recognition and boundary regression, and an effective region segmentation subnetwork (RSSN) was used for region segmentation. The features extracted using RSSN and DSN were fused to optimize the quality of boundary regression, which provided impressive results for multiple evaluation metrics. Specifically, the proposed framework achieved a top F1 score of 0.9849, a top Dice metric score of 0.9629, and an mAP (IOU = 0.5) score of 0.9810. This framework holds great promise for enhancing the clinical efficiency of dentists in tooth segmentation and numbering tasks. Full article
