Medical image segmentation requires high accuracy and robustness, yet practical commercial deployment also demands privacy preservation and computational efficiency. In this context, the U-Net architecture, which can be inherently decoupled into independent encoder and decoder components, serves as a natural commercial...
A hybrid CNN-Transformer architecture guided by channel attention, referred to as CACFormer, for 3D medical image segmentation, and a novel linear Transformer variant that integrates a linear attention mechanism with tanh activation are introduced.
