Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have recently emerged as a powerful approach for automatic segmentation of brain tumor subregions on 3D multi-parametric MRI scans. Learning rate is a crucial hyperparameter in the training of CNNs, impacting the performance of the learned model. Different learni...
