Abstract Neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s disease have a significant impact on the lives and health of the elderly as the aging population continues to grow. Doctors can achieve effective prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease according to the morphological volume of hippocampus. General segmentation techniques frequently fail to produce satisfactory results due to hippocampus’s small size, complex structure, and fuzzy edges. We develop a new SC-Net model using complete brain MRI images to achieve high-precision segmentation of hippocampal structures. The proposed network improves the accuracy of hippocampal structural segmentation by retaining the original location information of More >

Abstract The entorhinal-hippocampus structure in the mammalian brain is the core area for realizing spatial cognition. However, the visual perception and loop detection methods in the current biomimetic robot navigation model still rely on traditional visual SLAM schemes and lack the process of exploring and applying biological visual methods. Based on this, we propose a map construction method that mimics the entorhinal-hippocampal cognitive mechanism of the rat brain according to the response of entorhinal cortex neurons to eye saccades in recent related studies. That is, when mammals are free to watch the scene, the entorhinal cortex… More >
