摘要

Early detection of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) plays a crucial role in preventing permanent vision loss and supporting ophthalmologists in delivering prompt and accurate treatment strategies. However, the segmentation of DR lesions is challenging due to their high inter-class similarity in terms of size, texture, and contrast. To address the limitations of traditional deep learning methods in lesion segmentation, this study proposes the Texture-Enhanced Multi-Scale Interaction Swin-UNet (TEMI-SwinUNet) network. This approach utilizes the Swin Transformer as a feature extraction module and incorporates the Texture Complement Enhancement Module (TCEM) to effectively recover and enhance the perceptual boundaries and texture features lost during downsampling. The Multi-Scale Channel Interaction Module (MSCI) replaces the original bottleneck layer in Swin-UNet, enhancing the network’s ability to extract local spatial features from images, further improving segmentation accuracy. Experiments on the public datasets demonstrate that the model exhibits superior performance in both Dice and AUPR metrics, with a significant improvement in lesion segmentation accuracy.
