As a group, we scored 97% (assignment score) in this university project, but nonetheless, I was disappointed with my Mean Sørensen–Dice score of just 0.79151. As such, I continued to train progressively more powerful 3D models on the Volumetric CT scans with a HPC 1.

Eventually I improved my Mean Kidney Tumor Dice Score to 0.8950 by January and 0.9129 by April. In the end my Kidney Segmentation capabilities were exceptionally good at 0.9786, however the "Kidney Tumour" segmentation score of 0.8472 anchored my final mean score.
