X-ray imaging systems have enabled dental clinicians to identify dental diseases. However, the manual process of dental disease assessment is tedious and error-prone when diagnosed by inexperienced dentists. Thus, researchers have employed different advanced computer vision techniques, as well as machine and deep learning models for dental disease diagnoses using X-ray imagery. In this regard, a lightweight Mask-RCNN model is proposed for periapical disease detection. The proposed model is constructed in two parts: a lightweight modified MobileNet-v2 backbone and region-based network (RPN) are proposed for periapical disease localization on a small dataset. To measure the effectiveness of the proposed model, the lightweight Mask-RCNN is evaluated on a custom annotated dataset comprising images of five different types of periapical lesions. The results reveal that the model can detect and localize periapical lesions with an overall accuracy of 94%, a mean average precision of 85%, and a mean insection over a union of 71.0%. The proposed model improves the detection, classification, and localization accuracy significantly using a smaller number of images compared to existing methods and outperforms state-of-the-art approaches. eng info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ © 2023 The authors Atribución 4.0 Internacional Machine learning Aprendizaje automático Artificial intelligence - Medical applications Inteligencia artificial - Aplicaciones médicas Preventive dentistry Dental hygiene Higiene dental Mouth - Diseases - Diagnosis Boca - Enfermedades - Diagnóstico Image processing Imágenes, Tratamiento de las Health informatics Dentistry Odontología Deep learning-based multiclass instance segmentation for dental lesion detection info:eu-repo/semantics/article
