  Overview

This paper presents a new model called xLSTM-UNet, which combines an extended Long Short-Term Memory (xLSTM) module with a UNet architecture for effective 2D and 3D medical image segmentation.
The authors compare xLSTM-UNet to a previous model called Vision-Mamba (ViM-UNet), which uses a Mamba state-space model for se...
