Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for segmenting a medical image. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving a medical image that is captured using a medical imaging modality and that depicts a region of tissue in a body; and processing the medical image using a segmentation neural network to generate a segmentation output. The segmentation neural network can include a sequence of multiple encoder blocks and a decoder subnetwork. Training the segmentation neural network can include determining a set of error values for a segmentation channel; identifying the highest error values from the set of error values for the segmentation channel; and determining a segmentation loss based on the highest error values identified for the segmentation channel.

3-D convolutional neural networks for organ segmentation in medical images for radiotherapy planning

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for predicting future adverse health events using neural networks. One of the methods includes receiving electronic health record data for a patient; generating, from the electronic health record data, an input sequence comprising a respective feature representation at each of a plurality of time window time steps, comprising, for each time window time step: determining, for each of the possible numerical features, whether the numerical feature occurred during the time window; and generating, for each of the possible numerical features, one or more presence features that identify whether the numerical feature occurred during the time window; and processing the input sequence using a neural network to generate a neural network output that characterizes a predicted likelihood that an adverse health event will occur to the patient.

Prediction of future adverse health events using neural networks by pre-processing input sequences to include presence features

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for segmenting a medical image. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving a medical image that is captured using a medical imaging modality and that depicts a region of tissue in a body; and processing the medical image using a segmentation neural network to generate a segmentation output, wherein the segmentation neural network comprises a sequence of multiple encoder blocks, wherein: each encoder block is a residual neural network block comprising one or more two-dimensional convolutional neural network layers, one or more three-dimensional convolutional neural network layers, or both, and each encoder block is configured to process a respective encoder block input to generate a respective encoder block output wherein a spatial resolution of the encoder block output is lower than a spatial resolution of the encoder block input.
