Enhancing brain tumor diagnosis: an optimized CNN hyperparameter model for improved accuracy and reliability.

Hyperparameter tuning plays a pivotal role in the accuracy and reliability of convolutional neural network (CNN) models used in brain tumor diagnosis. These hyperparameters exert control over various aspects of the neural network, encompassing feature extraction, spatial resolution, non-linear mapping, convergence speed, and model complexity. We propose a meticulously refined CNN hyperparameter model designed to optimize critical parameters, including filter number and size, stride padding, pooling techniques, activation functions, learning rate, batch size, and the number of layers. Our approach leverages two publicly available brain tumor MRI datasets for research purposes. The first dataset comprises a total of 7,023 human brain images, categorized into four classes: glioma, meningioma, no tumor, and pituitary. The second dataset contains 253 images classified as "yes" and "no." Our approach delivers exceptional results, demonstrating an average 94.25% precision, recall, and F1-score with 96% accuracy for dataset 1, while an average 87.5% precision, recall, and F1-score, with accuracy of 88% for dataset 2. To affirm the robustness of our findings, we perform a comprehensive comparison with existing techniques, revealing that our method consistently outperforms these approaches. By systematically fine-tuning these critical hyperparameters, our model not only enhances its performance but also bolsters its generalization capabilities. This optimized CNN model provides medical experts with a more precise and efficient tool for supporting their decision-making processes in brain tumor diagnosis.

Enhanced Regularized Ensemble Encoderdecoder Network for Accurate Brain Tumor Segmentation.

BACKGROUND: Segmenting tumors in MRI scans is a difficult and time-consuming task for radiologists. This is because tumors come in different shapes, sizes, and textures, making them hard to identify visually. OBJECTIVE: This study proposes a new method called the enhanced regularized ensemble encoder-decoder network (EREEDN) for more accurate brain tumor segmentation. METHODS: The EREEDN model first preprocesses the MRI data by normalizing the intensity levels. It then uses a series of autoencoder networks to segment the tumor. These autoencoder networks are trained using back-propagation and gradient descent. To prevent overfitting, the EREEDN model also uses L2 regularization and dropout mechanisms. RESULTS: The EREEDN model was evaluated on the BraTS 2020 dataset. It achieved high performance on various metrics, including accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and dice coefficient score. The EREEDN model outperformed other methods on the BraTS 2020 dataset. CONCLUSION: The EREEDN model is a promising new method for brain tumor segmentation. It is more accurate and efficient than previous methods. Future studies will focus on improving the performance of the EREEDN model on complex tumors.

Next-Gen brain tumor classification: pioneering with deep learning and fine-tuned conditional generative adversarial networks.

Brain tumor has become one of the fatal causes of death worldwide in recent years, affecting many individuals annually and resulting in loss of lives. Brain tumors are characterized by the abnormal or irregular growth of brain tissues that can spread to nearby tissues and eventually throughout the brain. Although several traditional machine learning and deep learning techniques have been developed for detecting and classifying brain tumors, they do not always provide an accurate and timely diagnosis. This study proposes a conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) that leverages the fine-tuning of a convolutional neural network (CNN) to achieve more precise detection of brain tumors. The CGAN comprises two parts, a generator and a discriminator, whose outputs are used as inputs for fine-tuning the CNN model. The publicly available dataset of brain tumor MRI images on Kaggle was used to conduct experiments for Datasets 1 and 2. Statistical values such as precision, specificity, sensitivity, F1-score, and accuracy were used to evaluate the results. Compared to existing techniques, our proposed CGAN model achieved an accuracy value of 0.93 for Dataset 1 and 0.97 for Dataset 2.

A brain tumor is a significant health concern that directly or indirectly affects thousands of people worldwide. The early and accurate detection of brain tumors is vital to the successful treatment of brain tumors and the improved quality of life of the patient.

The Use of Chest Radiographs and Machine Learning Model for the Rapid Detection of Pneumonitis in Pediatric.

Pneumonia is a common lung disease that is the leading cause of death worldwide. It primarily affects children, accounting for 18% of all deaths in children under the age of five, the elderly, and patients with other diseases. There is a variety of imaging diagnosis techniques available today. While many of them are becoming more accurate, chest radiographs are still the most common method for detecting pulmonary infections due to cost and speed. A convolutional neural network (CNN) model has been developed to classify chest X-rays in JPEG format into normal, bacterial pneumonia, and viral pneumonia.

This model was used to create a web application that can process an image and provide a prediction to the user. A classification model was developed that generates a prediction with 78 percent accuracy. The precision of this calculation could be improved by increasing the epoch, among other subjects. With the help of artificial intelligence, this research study was aimed at demonstrating to the general public that deep-learning models can be created to assist health professionals in the early detection of pneumonia.
