ABSTRACT

Biomedical image analysis plays a crucial role in enabling high-performing imaging and various clinical applications. For the proper diagnosis of blood diseases related to red blood cells, red blood cells must be accurately identified and categorized. Manual analysis is time-consuming and prone to mistakes. Analyzing multi-label samples, which contain clusters of cells, is challenging due to difficulties in separating individual cells, such as touching or overlapping cells. High-performance biomedical imaging and several medical applications are made possible by advanced biosensors. We develop an intelligent neural network model that can automatically identify and categorize red blood cells from microscopic medical images using region-based convolutional neural networks (RCNN) and cutting-edge biosensors. Our model successfully navigates obstacles like touching or overlapping cells and accurately recognizes various blood structures. Additionally, we utilized data augmentation as a pre-processing method on microscopic images to enhance the model's computational efficiency and expand the sample size. To refine the data and eliminate noise from the dataset, we utilized the Radial Gradient Index filtering algorithm for imaging data equalization. We exhibit improved detection accuracy and a reduced model loss rate when using medical imagery datasets to apply our proposed model in comparison to existing ResNet and GoogleNet models. Our model precisely detected red blood cells in a collection of medical images with 99% training accuracy and 91.21% testing accuracy. Our proposed model outperformed earlier models like ResNet-50 and GoogleNet by 10-15%. Our results demonstrated that Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted automated red blood cell detection has the potential to revolutionize and speed up blood cell analysis, minimizing human error and enabling early illness diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Breast tumor detection and classification on the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) can be automated with the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI). However, challenges arise when dealing with sensitive data due to the dependence on large datasets. To address this issue, we propose an approach that combines different magnification factors of histopathological images using a residual network and information fusion in Federated Learning (FL). FL is employed to preserve the privacy of patient data, while enabling the creation of a global model. Using the BreakHis dataset, we compare the performance of FL with centralized learning (CL). We also performed visualizations for explainable AI. The final models obtained become available for deployment on internal IoMT systems in healthcare institutions for timely diagnosis and treatment. Our results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms existing works in the literature on multiple metrics.

ABSTRACT

A single-blind double-dummy randomized study was conducted in diagnosed patients (n = 66) to compare the efficacy of Linseeds (Linum usitatissimum L.), Psyllium (Plantago ovata Forssk.), and honey in uncomplicated pelvic inflammatory disease (uPID) with standard drugs using experimental and computational analysis. The pessary group received placebo capsules orally twice daily plus a per vaginum cotton pessary of powder from linseeds and psyllium seeds, each weighing 3 gm, with honey (5 mL) at bedtime. The standard group received 100 mg of doxycycline twice daily and 400 mg of metronidazole TID orally plus a placebo cotton pessary per vaginum at bedtime for 14 days. The primary outcomes were clinical features of uPID (vaginal discharge, lower abdominal pain (LAP), low backache (LBA), and pelvic tenderness. The secondary outcomes included leucocytes (WBCs) in vaginal discharge on saline microscopy and the SF-12 health questionnaire. In addition, we also classified both (pessary and standard) groups using machine learning models such as Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), Logistic Regression (LR), and AdaBoost (AB). The pessary group showed a higher percentage reduction than the standard group in abnormal vaginal discharge (87.05% vs. 77.94%), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)-LAP (80.57% vs. 77.09%), VAS-LBA (74.19% vs. 68.54%), McCormack pain scale (McPS) score for pelvic tenderness (75.39% vs. 67.81%), WBC count of vaginal discharge (87.09% vs. 83.41%) and improvement in SF-12 HRQoL score (94.25% vs. 86.81%). Additionally, our DT 5-fold model achieved the maximum accuracy (61.80%) in the classification. We propose that the pessary group is cost-effective, safer, and more effective as standard drugs for treating uPID and improving the HRQoL of women. Aucubin, Plantamajoside, Herbacetin, secoisolariciresinol diglucoside, Secoisolariciresinol Monoglucoside, and other various natural bioactive molecules of psyllium and linseeds have beneficial effects as they possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory properties. The anticipated research work is be a better alternative treatment for genital infections.

ABSTRACT

The classification of brain tumors is significantly important for diagnosing and treating brain tumors in IoT healthcare systems. In this work, we have proposed a robust classification model for brain tumors employing deep learning techniques. In the design of the proposed method, an improved Convolutional neural network is used to classify Meningioma, Glioma, and Pituitary types of brain tumors. To test the multi-level convolutional neural network model, brain magnetic resonance image data is utilized. The MCNN model classification results were improved using data augmentation and transfer learning methods. In addition, hold-out and performance evaluation metrics have been employed in the proposed MCNN model. The experimental results show that the proposed model obtained higher outcomes than the state-of-the-art techniques and achieved 99.89% classification accuracy. Due to the higher results of the proposed approach, we recommend it for the identification of brain cancer in IoT-healthcare systems.

ABSTRACT

The present outbreak of COVID-19 is a worldwide calamity for healthcare infrastructures. On a daily basis, a fresh batch of perplexing datasets on the numbers of positive and negative cases, individuals admitted to hospitals, mortality, hospital beds occupied, ventilation shortages, and so on is published. Infections have risen sharply in recent weeks, corresponding with the discovery of a new variant from South Africa (B.1.1.529 also known as Omicron). The early detection of dangerous situations and forecasting techniques is important to prevent the spread of disease and restart economic activities quickly and safely. In this paper, we used weekly mobility data to analyze the current situation in countries worldwide. A methodology for the statistical analysis of the current situation as well as for forecasting future outbreaks is presented in this paper in terms of deaths caused by COVID-19. Our method is evaluated with a multi-layer perceptron neural network (MLPNN), which is a deep learning model, to develop a predictive framework. Furthermore, the Case Fatality Ratio (CFR), Cronbach's alpha, and other metrics were computed to analyze the performance of the forecasting. The MLPNN is shown to have the best outcomes in forecasting the statistics for infected patients and deaths in selected regions. This research also provides an in-depth analysis of the emerging COVID-19 variants, challenges, and issues that must be addressed in order to prevent future outbreaks.

ABSTRACT

The classification of brain tumors (BT) is significantly essential for the diagnosis of Brian cancer (BC) in IoT-healthcare systems. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques based on Computer aided diagnostic systems (CADS) are mostly used for the accurate detection of brain cancer. However, due to the inaccuracy of artificial diagnostic systems, medical professionals are not effectively incorporating them into the diagnosis process of Brain Cancer. In this research study, we proposed a robust brain tumor classification method using Deep Learning (DL) techniques to address the lack of accuracy issue in existing artificial diagnosis systems. In the design of the proposed approach, an improved convolution neural network (CNN) is used to classify brain tumors employing brain magnetic resonance (MR) image data. The model classification performance has improved by incorporating data augmentation and transfer learning methods. The results confirmed that the model obtained high accuracy compared to the baseline models. Based on high predictive results we suggest the proposed model for brain cancer diagnosis in IoT-healthcare systems.

ABSTRACT

Accurate classification of brain tumors is vital for detecting brain cancer in the Medical Internet of Things. Detecting brain cancer at its early stages is a tremendous medical problem, and many researchers have proposed various diagnostic systems; however, these systems still do not effectively detect brain cancer. To address this issue, we proposed an automatic diagnosing framework that will assist medical experts in diagnosing brain cancer and ensuring proper treatment. In developing the proposed integrated framework, we first integrated a Convolutional Neural Networks model to extract deep features from Magnetic resonance imaging. The extracted features are forwarded to a Long Short Term Memory model, which performs the final classification. Augmentation techniques were applied to increase the data size, thereby boosting the performance of our model. We used the hold-out Cross-validation technique for training and validating our method. In addition, we used various metrics to evaluate the proposed model. The results obtained from the experiments show that our model achieved higher performance than previous models. The proposed model is strongly recommended to be used to diagnose brain cancer in Medical Internet of Things healthcare systems due to its higher predictive outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Accurate breast cancer (BC) diagnosis is a difficult task that is critical for the proper treatment of BC in IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) healthcare systems. This paper proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based diagnosis method for detecting early-stage breast cancer. In developing the proposed method, we incorporated the CNN model for the invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) classification using breast histology image data. We have incorporated transfer learning (TL) and data augmentation (DA) mechanisms to improve the CNN model's predictive outcomes. For the fine-tuning process, the CNN model was trained with breast histology image data. Furthermore, the held-out cross-validation method for best model selection and hyper-parameter tuning was incorporated. In addition, various performance evaluation metrics for model performance assessment were computed. The experimental results confirmed that the proposed model outperformed the baseline models across all evaluation metrics, achieving 99.04% accuracy. We recommend the proposed method for early recognition of BC in IoMT healthcare systems due to its high performance.

ABSTRACT

COVID-19 is a transferable disease that is also a leading cause of death for a large number of people worldwide. This disease, caused by SARS-CoV-2, spreads very rapidly and quickly affects the respiratory system of the human being. Therefore, it is necessary to diagnosis this disease at the early stage for proper treatment, recovery, and controlling the spread. The automatic diagnosis system is significantly necessary for COVID-19 detection. To diagnose COVID-19 from chest X-ray images, employing artificial intelligence techniques based methods are more effective and could correctly diagnosis it. The existing diagnosis methods of COVID-19 have the problem of lack of accuracy to diagnosis. To handle this problem we have proposed an efficient and accurate diagnosis model for COVID-19. In the proposed method, a two-dimensional Convolutional Neural Network (2DCNN) is designed for COVID-19 recognition employing chest X-ray images. Transfer learning (TL) pre-trained ResNet-50 model weight is transferred to the 2DCNN model to enhanced the training process of the 2DCNN model and fine-tuning with chest X-ray images data for final multi-classification to diagnose COVID-19. In addition, the data augmentation technique transformation (rotation) is used to increase the data set size for effective training of the R2DCNNMC model. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed (R2DCNNMC) model obtained high accuracy and obtained 98.12% classification accuracy on CRD data set, and 99.45% classification accuracy on CXI data set as compared to baseline methods. This approach has a high performance and could be used for COVID-19 diagnosis in E-Healthcare systems.

ABSTRACT

Significant attention has been paid to the accurate detection of diabetes. It is a big challenge for the research community to develop a diagnosis system to detect diabetes in a successful way in the e-healthcare environment. Machine learning techniques have an emerging role in healthcare services by delivering a system to analyze the medical data for diagnosis of diseases. The existing diagnosis systems have some drawbacks, such as high computation time, and low prediction accuracy. To handle these issues, we have proposed a diagnosis system using machine learning methods for the detection of diabetes. The proposed method has been tested on the diabetes data set which is a clinical dataset designed from patient's clinical history. Further, model validation methods, such as hold out, K-fold, leave one subject out and performance evaluation metrics, includes accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, F1-score, receiver operating characteristic curve, and execution time have been used to check the validity of the proposed system. We have proposed a filter method based on the Decision Tree (Iterative Dichotomiser 3) algorithm for highly important feature selection. Two ensemble learning algorithms, Ada Boost and Random Forest, are also used for feature selection and we also compared the classifier performance with wrapper based feature selection algorithms. Classifier Decision Tree has been used for the classification of healthy and diabetic subjects. The experimental results show that the proposed feature selection algorithm selected features improve the classification performance of the predictive model and achieved optimal accuracy. Additionally, the proposed system performance is high compared to the previous state-of-the-art methods. High performance of the proposed method is due to the different combinations of selected features set and Plasma glucose concentrations, Diabetes pedigree function, and Blood mass index are more significantly important features in the dataset for prediction of diabetes. Furthermore, the experimental results statistical analysis demonstrated that the proposed method would effectively detect diabetes and can be deployed in an e-healthcare environment.

ABSTRACT

In this paper the mesoscale application of the 3D Lagrangian particle dispersion model LAPMOD has been assessed for a field tracer test performed in a short-range complex terrain. The meteorological input was provided through the diagnostic model CALMET, the meteorological pre-processor of the CALPUFF model. The CALMET/LAPMOD coupled system was used to simulate the hourly averaged ground level concentration at 47 discrete receptors. The LAPMOD model has a general tendency to slightly underestimate the hourly averaged ground-level concentrations. A Q-Q plot shows that the predicted concentration distribution has a good comparison with observed one. The Robust Highest Concentration (RHC) indicates that the LAPMOD model slightly underestimates the simulated peak concentration in short-term release conditions. The Fractional Bias (FB), Normalized Mean Squared Error (NMSE), Factor of Two (FAC2), Factor of Four (FAC4) and Factor of Exceedance (FOEX) statistical indices were calculated. The predicted results by LAPMOD are generally in good agreement with observed ones and the model is justified for the use in complex terrain for short-term near-field applications.
