Popis: Abstract Schizophrenic patients’ brain tumor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images are important references for doctors to diagnose and treat schizophrenia. However, automatic segmentation of these images is a professional and tedious task. Existing methods suffer from problems such as large model parameters, long computation time, and inadequate image processing. To achieve more accurate segmentation of brain tumors, we propose brain tumor MRI images for automatic segmentation using self-supervised contrastive learning in schizophrenia patients (BTCSSSP). First, a denoising algorithm based on progressive principal component analysis approximation and adaptive clustering is designed to process the noisy MRI images. Second, a brightness-aware image enhancement algorithm is developed to address the problems of non-uniformity, unclear boundaries, and poor spatial resolution of the MRI images. Finally, a cross-scale U-Net network with selective feature fusion attention module is designed based on self-supervised contrastive learning to achieve automatic segmentation of brain tumor MRI images. The results show that the BTCSSSP method yields higher Recall and Precision than existing methods. The maximum recall is 95%, and the image segmentation precision is 95%, thus indicating good practical applicability.
