U-Net

An encoder-decoder segmentation architecture especially effective in biomedical and pixel-level tasks.

U-Net is one of the most widely used architectures in segmentation and is especially known for producing strong results with limited data. Its encoder-decoder design and skip connections preserve both global context and fine detail. It is used in a wide range of applications from biomedical images to industrial segmentation. It remains one of the core reference points in segmentation architecture design.
