Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive clinical technique used for treatment of several neurological diseases. The brain induced electric field is known for inter- /intra- subject variabilities, which make it difficult to accurately adjust TMS parameters for different subjects. Therefore, a computer simulation is frequently used to simulate different TMS setups using models generated from anatomical images (e.g. MRI) of the examined subject. Human head models are generated by segmentation of MRI images into different anatomical tissues with isotropic electric conductivity each. This process is time-consuming and requires a special experience to segment a relatively large number of tissues. In this paper, we propose a deep convolution neural network for human head segmentation that is convenient for simulation of electrical field distribution, such as TMS. The proposed network is used to generate personalized head models from MRI with high accuracy. Results indicate that the personalized head models generated using the proposed method demonstrate strong matching with those achieved from manually segmented ones.
