Pulmonary Nodule Detection Based on Faster R-CNN With Adaptive Anchor Box
Early pulmonary nodule detection is very important in lung cancer diagnosis and screening. Most state-of-the-art lung nodule detection models are based on Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN) due to its superior performance. However, this object detection approach faces di...

Early pulmonary nodule detection is very important in lung cancer diagnosis and screening. Most state-of-the-art lung nodule detection models are based on Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN) due to its superior performance. However, this object detection approach faces difficulties with the variety of nodule sizes in training datasets. In this paper, we propose a novel Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) system based on Faster R-CNN model with adaptive anchor box for lung nodule detection. Our method employs ground-truth nodule sizes in the training dataset to generate adaptive anchor box sizes of Faster R-CNN. Learned anchors are used as hyper-parameter to boost Faster R-CNN’s detection performance. A residual convolutional neural network is proposed to reduce false positives from Faster R-CNN’s output.
