Enhancing Prediction of Brain Tumor Classification Using Images and Numerical Data Features.

Brain tumors, along with other diseases that harm the neurological system, are a significant contributor to global mortality. Early diagnosis plays a crucial role in effectively treating brain tumors. To distinguish individuals with tumors from those without, this study employs a combination of images and data-based features. In the initial phase, the image dataset is enhanced, followed by the application of a UNet transfer-learning-based model to accurately classify patients as either having tumors or being normal. In the second phase, this research utilizes 13 features in conjunction with a voting classifier. The voting classifier incorporates features extracted from deep convolutional layers and combines stochastic gradient descent with logistic regression to achieve better classification results. The reported accuracy score of 0.99 achieved by both proposed models shows its superior performance. Also, comparing results with other supervised learning algorithms and state-of-the-art models validates its performance.

Anomaly Detection in Traffic Surveillance Videos Using Deep Learning.

In the recent past, a huge number of cameras have been placed in a variety of public and private areas for the purposes of surveillance, the monitoring of abnormal human actions, and traffic surveillance. The detection and recognition of abnormal activity in a real-world environment is a big challenge, as there can be many types of alarming and abnormal activities, such as theft, violence, and accidents. This research deals with accidents in traffic videos. In the modern world, video traffic surveillance cameras (VTSS) are used for traffic surveillance and monitoring. As the population is increasing drastically, the likelihood of accidents is also increasing. The VTSS is used to detect abnormal events or incidents regarding traffic on different roads and highways, such as traffic jams, traffic congestion, and vehicle accidents. Mostly in accidents, people are helpless and some die due to the unavailability of emergency treatment on long highways and those places that are far from cities. This research proposes a methodology for detecting accidents automatically through surveillance videos. A review of the literature suggests that convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which are a specialized deep learning approach pioneered to work with grid-like data, are effective in image and video analysis. This research uses CNNs to find anomalies (accidents) from videos captured by the VTSS and implement a rolling prediction algorithm to achieve high accuracy. In the training of the CNN model, a vehicle accident image dataset (VAID), composed of images with anomalies, was constructed and used. For testing the proposed methodology, the trained CNN model was checked on multiple videos, and the results were collected and analyzed. The results of this research show the successful detection of traffic accident events with an accuracy of 82% in the traffic surveillance system videos.
