Abstract

Clinical practitioners’ workload and challenges are significantly reduced by classifying, predicting, and localizing lesions or dental caries. In recent research, a high-reliability diagnostic system within deep learning models has been implemented in a clinical teledentistry system. In order to construct an efficient, precise, and lightweight deep learning architecture, it is dynamically structured. In this paper, we present an efficient, accurate, and lightweight deep learning architecture for augmenting spatial locations and improving the transformation modeling abilities of fixed-structure CNNs. Deformable Dense Residual (DDR) enhances the efficacy of the residual convolution block by optimizing its structure, thereby mitigating model redundancy and ameliorating the challenge of vanishing gradients encountered during the training stages. DDR Half U-Net presents notable advancements to the simplified U-Net framework across three pivotal domains: the encoder, decoder, and loss function. Specifically, the encoder integrates deformable convolutions, thereby enhancing the model's capacity to discern features of diverse scales and configurations. In the decoder, a sophisticated arrangement of dense residual connections facilitates the fusion of low-level and high-level features, contributing to comprehensive feature extraction. Moreover, the utilization of a weight-adaptive loss function ensures equitable consideration of both caries and non-caries samples, thereby promoting balanced optimization during training.
