    Medical Image Fusion Based on Anisotropic Diffusion and Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transform

    Bhawna Goyal1,*, Ayush Dogra2, Rahul Khoond1, Dawa Chyophel Lepcha1, Vishal Goyal3, Steven L. Fernandes4

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.76, No.1, pp. 311-327, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.038398

    Abstract The synthesis of visual information from multiple medical imaging inputs to a single fused image without any loss of detail and distortion is known as multimodal medical image fusion. It improves the quality of biomedical images by preserving detailed features to advance the clinical utility of medical imaging meant for the analysis and treatment of medical disorders. This study develops a novel approach to fuse multimodal medical images utilizing anisotropic diffusion (AD) and non-subsampled contourlet transform (NSCT). First, the method employs anisotropic diffusion for decomposing input images to their base and detail layers to coarsely split two features of input… More >

    Image Fusion Based on NSCT and Sparse Representation for Remote Sensing Data

    N. A. Lawrance*, T. S. Shiny Angel

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.46, No.3, pp. 3439-3455, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.030311

    Abstract The practice of integrating images from two or more sensors collected from the same area or object is known as image fusion. The goal is to extract more spatial and spectral information from the resulting fused image than from the component images. The images must be fused to improve the spatial and spectral quality of both panchromatic and multispectral images. This study provides a novel picture fusion technique that employs L0 smoothening Filter, Non-subsampled Contour let Transform (NSCT) and Sparse Representation (SR) followed by the Max absolute rule (MAR). The fusion approach is as follows: first, the multispectral and panchromatic… More >

    Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Despeckling in Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transformed Ultrasound Pictures

    T. Manikandan1, S. Karthikeyan2,*, J. Jai Jaganath Babu3, G. Babu4

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.35, No.3, pp. 2755-2771, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.030497

    Abstract Signal to noise ratio in ultrasound medical images captured through the digital camera is poorer, resulting in an inaccurate diagnosis. As a result, it needs an efficient despeckling method for ultrasound images in clinical practice and telemedicine. This article proposes a novel adaptive fuzzy filter based on the directionality and translation invariant property of the Non-Sub sampled Contour-let Transform (NSCT). Since speckle-noise causes fuzziness in ultrasound images, fuzzy logic may be a straightforward technique to derive the output from the noisy images. This filtering method comprises detection and filtering stages. First, image regions classify at the detection stage by applying… More >

    Non Sub-Sampled Contourlet with Joint Sparse Representation Based Medical Image Fusion

    Kandasamy Kittusamy*, Latha Shanmuga Vadivu Sampath Kumar

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.44, No.3, pp. 1989-2005, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.026501

    Abstract Medical Image Fusion is the synthesizing technology for fusing multimodal medical information using mathematical procedures to generate better visual on the image content and high-quality image output. Medical image fusion represents an indispensible role in fixing major solutions for the complicated medical predicaments, while the recent research results have an enhanced affinity towards the preservation of medical image details, leaving color distortion and halo artifacts to remain unaddressed. This paper proposes a novel method of fusing Computer Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) using a hybrid model of Non Sub-sampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) and Joint Sparse Representation (JSR).

    Contourlet and Gould Transforms for Hybrid Image Watermarking in RGB Color Images

    Reena Thomas1,*, M. Sucharitha2

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.33, No.2, pp. 879-889, 2022, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2022.024070

    Abstract The major intention of this work is to introduce a novel hybrid image watermarking technique for RGB color images. This hybrid watermarking algorithm uses two transforms such as Contourlet and Gould transform. The Contourlet transform is used as first stage while the Gould transform is used as second stage. In the watermark embedding phase, the R, G and B channels are transformed using Contourlet transform. The bandpass directional sub band coefficients of Contourlet transformed image are then divided into sub-blocks. The sub-blocks are then transformed using Gould transform and the watermark information is embedded on the initial coefficients of each… More >

    Deep Learning-Based Hookworm Detection in Wireless Capsule Endoscopic Image Using AdaBoost Classifier

    K. Lakshminarayanan1, N. Muthukumaran1, Y. Harold Robinson2, Vimal Shanmuganathan3, Seifedine Kadry4, Yunyoung Nam5,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.67, No.3, pp. 3045-3055, 2021, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2021.014370

    Abstract Hookworm is an illness caused by an internal sponger called a roundworm. Inferable from deprived cleanliness in the developing nations, hookworm infection is a primary source of concern for both motherly and baby grimness. The current framework for hookworm detection is composed of hybrid convolutional neural networks; explicitly an edge extraction framework alongside a hookworm classification framework is developed. To consolidate the cylindrical zones obtained from the edge extraction framework and the trait map acquired into the hookworm scientific categorization framework, pooling layers are proposed. The hookworms display different profiles, widths, and bend directions. These challenges make it difficult for… More >

    A Hybrid Artificial Intelligence Model for Skin Cancer Diagnosis

    V. Vidya Lakshmi1,*, J. S. Leena Jasmine2

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.37, No.2, pp. 233-245, 2021, DOI:10.32604/csse.2021.015700

    Abstract Melanoma or skin cancer is the most dangerous and deadliest disease. As the incidence and mortality rate of skin cancer increases worldwide, an automated skin cancer detection/classification system is required for early detection and prevention of skin cancer. In this study, a Hybrid Artificial Intelligence Model (HAIM) is designed for skin cancer classification. It uses diverse multi-directional representation systems for feature extraction and an efficient Exponentially Weighted and Heaped Multi-Layer Perceptron (EWHMLP) for the classification. Though the wavelet transform is a powerful tool for signal and image processing, it is unable to detect the intermediate dimensional structures of a medical… More >

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.61, No.2, pp. 861-875, 2019, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2019.06230

    Abstract It is important to extract texture feature from the ground-base cloud image for cloud type automatic detection. In this paper, a new method is presented to capture the contour edge, texture and geometric structure of cloud images by using Contourlet and the power spectrum analysis algorithm. More abundant texture information is extracted. Cloud images can be obtained a multiscale and multidirection decomposition. The coefficient matrix from Contourlet transform of ground nephogram is calculated. The energy, mean and variance characteristics calculated from coefficient matrix are composed of the feature information. The frequency information of the data series from the feature vector… More >
