Synergistic Multi-Granularity Rough Attention UNet for Polyp Segmentation.

Automatic polyp segmentation in colonoscopic images is crucial for the early detection and treatment of colorectal cancer. However, complex backgrounds, diverse polyp morphologies, and ambiguous boundaries make this task difficult. To address these issues, we propose the Synergistic Multi-Granularity Rough Attention U-Net (S-MGRAUNet), which integrates three key modules: the Multi-Granularity Hybrid Filtering (MGHF) module for extracting multi-scale contextual information, the Dynamic Granularity Partition Synergy (DGPS) module for enhancing polyp-background differentiation through adaptive feature interaction, and the Multi-Granularity Rough Attention (MGRA) mechanism for further optimizing boundary recognition. Extensive experiments on the ColonDB and CVC-300 datasets demonstrate that S-MGRAUNet significantly outperforms existing methods while achieving competitive results on the Kvasir-SEG and ClinicDB datasets, validating its segmentation accuracy, robustness, and generalization capability, all while effectively reducing computational complexity. This study highlights the value of multi-granularity feature extraction and attention mechanisms, providing new insights and practical guidance for advancing multi-granularity theories in medical image segmentation.
