ABSTRACT
Over 6.5 million people around the world have lost their lives due to the highly contagious COVID 19 virus. The virus increases the danger of fatal health effects by damaging the lungs severely. The only method to reduce mortality and contain the spread of this disease is by promptly detecting it. Recently, deep learning has become one of the most prominent approaches to CAD, helping surgeons make more informed decisions. But deep learning models are computation hungry and devices with TPUs and GPUs are needed to run these models. The current focus of machine learning research is on developing models that can be deployed on mobile and edge devices. To this end, this research aims to develop a concise convolutional neural network-based computer-aided diagnostic system for detecting the COVID 19 virus in X-ray images, which may be deployed on devices with limited processing resources, such as mobile phones and tablets. The proposed architecture aspires to use the image enhancement in first phase and data augmentation in the second phase for image pre-processing, additionally hyperparameters are also optimized to obtain the optimal parameter settings in the third phase that provide the best results. The experimental analysis has provided empirical evidence of the impact of image enhancement, data augmentation, and hyperparameter tuning on the proposed convolutional neural network model, which increased accuracy from 94 to 98%. Results from the evaluation show that the suggested method gives an accuracy of 98%, which is better than popular transfer learning models like Xception, Resnet50, and Inception.

Every year, millions of women across the globe are diagnosed with breast cancer (BC), an illness that is both common and potentially fatal. To provide effective therapy and enhance patient outcomes, it is essential to make an accurate diagnosis as soon as possible. In recent years, deep-learning (DL) approaches have shown great effectiveness in a variety of medical imaging applications, including the processing of histopathological images. Using DL techniques, the objective of this study is to recover the detection of BC by merging qualitative and quantitative data. Using deep mutual learning (DML), the emphasis of this research was on BC. In addition, a wide variety of breast cancer imaging modalities were investigated to assess the distinction between aggressive and benign BC. Based on this, deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) have been established to assess histopathological images of BC. In terms of the Break His-200×, BACH, and PUIH datasets, the results of the trials indicate that the level of accuracy achieved by the DML model is 98.97%, 96.78, and 96.34, respectively. This indicates that the DML model outperforms and has the greatest value among the other methodologies. To be more specific, it improves the results of localization without compromising the performance of the classification, which is an indication of its increased utility. We intend to proceed with the development of the diagnostic model to make it more applicable to clinical settings.
ABSTRACT
Recent improvements in current technology have had a significant impact on a wide range of image processing applications, including medical imaging. Classification, detection, and segmentation are all important aspects of medical imaging technology. An enormous need exists for the segmentation of diagnostic images, which can be applied to a wide variety of medical research applications. It is important to develop an effective segmentation technique based on deep learning algorithms for optimal identification of regions of interest and rapid segmentation. To cover this gap, a pipeline for image segmentation using traditional Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as well as introduced Swarm Intelligence (SI) for optimal identification of the desired area has been proposed. Fuzzy C-means (FCM), K-means, and improvisation of FCM with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), improvisation of K-means with PSO, improvisation of FCM with CNN, and improvisation of K-means with CNN are the six modules examined and evaluated. Experiments are carried out on various types of images such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for brain data analysis, dermoscopic for skin, microscopic for blood leukemia, and computed tomography (CT) scan images for lungs. After combining all of the datasets, we have constructed five subsets of data, each of which had a different number of images: 50, 100, 500, 1000, and 2000. Each of the models was executed and trained on the selected subset of the datasets. From the experimental analysis, it is observed that the performance of K-means with CNN is better than others and achieved 96.45% segmentation accuracy with an average time of 9.09 seconds.

The abnormal growth of the skin cells is known as skin cancer. It is one of the main problems in the dermatology area. Skin lesions or malignancies have been a source of worry for many individuals in recent years. Irrespective of the skin tone, there exist three major classes of skin lesions, i.e., basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. The early diagnosis of these lesions is equally important for human life. In the proposed work, a secure IoMT-Assisted framework is introduced that can help the patients to do the initial screening of skin lesions remotely. The initially proposed approach uses an IoMT-based data collection device which is accessible by patients to capture skin lesions images. Next, the captured skin sample is encrypted and sent to the collected image toward cloud storage. Later, the received sample image is classified into appropriate class labels using an ensemble classifier. In the proposed framework, four CNN models were ensemble i.e., VGG-16, DenseNet-201, Inception-V3, and Efficient-B7. The framework has experimented with the "HAM10000" dataset having 7 different kinds of skin lesions data. Although DenseNet-201 performed well, the ensemble model provides the highest accuracy with 87.22 percent as well as its test loss/error is lower than others with 0.4131. Moreover, the ensemble model's classification ability is much higher with an AUC score of 0.9745. Moreover, A recommendation team has been assigned to assess the sample of the patient as well as suggest the patient according to classified results by the CAD.
