Article A Comparative Study of Unet Variants for Low-Grade Glioma Segmentation in Magnetic Resonance Imaging(Inonu University, 2025-06-25) Guzel, Yasin; Aydin, ZaferBrain tumors originating from glial cells are pathological entities that significantly impact quality of life and are classified based on their malignancy into low-grade gliomas (LGGs) and high-grade gliomas (HGGs). While the more aggressive HGGs have been extensively studied, LGGs are of critical importance for early diagnosis due to their potential progression to HGGs if left untreated. This has driven researchers to develop methods for the rapid and consistent diagnosis of LGGs. In this study, three models—UNet, Transformer UNet, and Super Vision UNet—were comparatively evaluated for the automatic segmentation of LGGs using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Multimodal MRI scans from 110 patients, retrieved from The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA), were used to train the models. Performance was evaluated using Dice Coefficient, Tversky Index, and Intersection over Union (IoU) metrics. The Super Vision UNet achieves the highest Dice (0.9115) and Tversky (0.9154) scores, while the Transformer UNet attains the highest IoU (0.8789). Both advanced models demonstrate superior segmentation performance with lower loss values compared to the conventional UNet. Visual outputs indicate that the modern architectures delineate tumor contours with greater precision. These results highlight the effectiveness and reliability of contemporary UNet-based and Transformer-based architectures in segmenting complex tumor structures such as LGGs. Integrating these models into clinical decision support systems holds promise for enhancing the speed and accuracy of the diagnostic process. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Papiller Tiroid Karsinom Oluşumunda Etkili Moleküler Mekanizmaların İn Siliko Yöntemlerle Tespit Edilmesi(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-04) Ersöz, Nur Sebnem; Guzel, Yasin; Bakir-Güngör, BurcuRepresenting approximately 70% to 80% of thyroid cancers, papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancers. PTC is seen in all age groups, but it is seen more frequently in women than in men. Detection of biomarker proteins of papillary thyroid cancinoma plays an important role in the diagnosis of the disease. In this study, we aim to find target genes and pathways that are associated with papillar thyroid carcinoma, by integrating different bioinformatics methods. For this purpose, usingin-silico methodologies, candidate genes and pathways that could explain disease development mechanisms are identified. Throughout this study, firstly we identified differentially expressed genes as the amount of their protein product differ between patient and healthy groups. Secondly, by using active subnetworks search algorithms, topologic analyses and functional enrichment tests, candidate proteins,which could be thought as PTC biomarkers, and affected pathways are identified. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
