GloResNet: A lightweight 3D CNN with global topological features for preterm brain injury prediction
arXiv CS.CV
•
This study introduces an automated deep learning framework for predicting brain injury (BI) in preterm infants from T2-weighted MRI (dHCP dataset). We propose GloResNet, a lightweight 3D CNN based on ResNet-10, pretrained on MedicalNet to address data scarcity. A global manifold mapping strategy first resamples each 3D volume to 128x128x128 and then applies subject-wise z-score intensity normalization, thereby preserving global topology while standardizing appearance.
