1.简介

Image classification and segmentation are the two most common applications of deep learning in medical imaging. However, it is not straightforward to use transfer learning methods for these tasks due to different dataset distributions, input sizes, and complex model architectures. In this paper, we propose a new method called Transfer Learning (TL) for image classification and segmentation based on deep neural networks with convolutional layers. TL leverages pre-trained models as fixed feature extractors from large datasets such as ImageNet or PASCAL VOC to adapt them to our specific task at hand. This allows us to significantly reduce the amount of training data required and speed up the convergence time of our models by usin
