Abstract Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a debilitating neurological disorder affecting over 10 million people worldwide. PD classification models using voice signals as input are common in the literature. It is believed that using deep learning algorithms further enhances performance; nevertheless, it is challenging due to the nature of small-scale and imbalanced PD datasets. This paper proposed a convolutional neural network-based deep support vector machine (CNN-DSVM) to automate the feature extraction process using CNN and extend the conventional SVM to a DSVM for better classification performance in small-scale PD datasets. A customized kernel function reduces the impact… More >

Abstract Recent advancements in computational and database technologies have led to the exponential growth of large-scale medical datasets, significantly increasing data complexity and dimensionality in medical diagnostics. Efficient feature selection methods are critical for improving diagnostic accuracy, reducing computational costs, and enhancing the interpretability of predictive models. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), a widely used metaheuristic inspired by swarm intelligence, has shown considerable promise in feature selection tasks. However, conventional PSO often suffers from premature convergence and limited exploration capabilities, particularly in high-dimensional spaces. To overcome these limitations, this study proposes an enhanced PSO framework incorporating Orthogonal… More >

Abstract Breast Cancer (BC) remains a leading malignancy among women, resulting in high mortality rates. Early and accurate detection is crucial for improving patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic tools, while effective, have limitations that reduce their accessibility and accuracy. This study investigates the use of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to enhance the diagnostic process of BC histopathology. Utilizing the BreakHis dataset, which contains thousands of histopathological images, we developed a CNN model designed to improve the speed and accuracy of image analysis. Our CNN architecture was designed with multiple convolutional layers, max-pooling layers, and a fully connected… More >

Abstract The growing spectrum of Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) applications in medical imaging, cyber security, data augmentation, and the field of remote sensing tasks necessitate a sharp spike in the criticality of review of Generative Adversarial Networks. Earlier reviews that targeted reviewing certain architecture of the GAN or emphasizing a specific application-oriented area have done so in a narrow spirit and lacked the systematic comparative analysis of the models’ performance metrics. Numerous reviews do not apply standardized frameworks, showing gaps in the efficiency evaluation of GANs, training stability, and suitability for specific tasks. In this work,… More >

Abstract Accurate medical diagnosis, which involves identifying diseases based on patient symptoms, is often hindered by uncertainties in data interpretation and retrieval. Advanced fuzzy set theories have emerged as effective tools to address these challenges. In this paper, new mathematical approaches for handling uncertainty in medical diagnosis are introduced using q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (q-ROFS) and interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (IVq-ROFS). Three aggregation operators are proposed in our methodologies: the q-ROF weighted averaging (q-ROFWA), the q-ROF weighted geometric (q-ROFWG), and the q-ROF weighted neutrality averaging (q-ROFWNA), which enhance decision-making under uncertainty. These operators are paired More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Spherical q-linear Diophantine fuzzy sets (Sq-LDFSs) proved more effective for handling uncertainty and vagueness in multi-criteria decision-making (MADM). It does not only cover the data in two variable parameters but is also beneficial for three parametric data. By Pythagorean fuzzy sets, the difference is calculated only between two parameters (membership and non-membership). According to human thoughts, fuzzy data can be found in three parameters (membership uncertainty, and non-membership). So, to make a compromise decision, comparing Sq-LDFSs is essential. Existing measures of different fuzzy sets do, however, can have several flaws that can lead to counterintuitive… More >

Abstract Gait refers to a person’s particular movements and stance while moving around. Although each person’s gait is unique and made up of a variety of tiny limb orientations and body positions, they all have common characteristics that help to define normalcy. Swiftly identifying such characteristics that are difficult to spot by the naked eye, can help in monitoring the elderly who require constant care and support. Analyzing silhouettes is the easiest way to assess and make any necessary adjustments for a smooth gait. It also becomes an important aspect of decision-making while analyzing and monitoring… More >

Abstract Medical image fusion is considered the best method for obtaining one image with rich details for efficient medical diagnosis and therapy. Deep learning provides a high performance for several medical image analysis applications. This paper proposes a deep learning model for the medical image fusion process. This model depends on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The basic idea of the proposed model is to extract features from both CT and MR images. Then, an additional process is executed on the extracted features. After that, the fused feature map is reconstructed to obtain the resulting fused image. More >
