Abstract Deep neural networks have achieved tremendous success in various fields, and the structure of these networks is a key factor in their success. In this paper, we focus on the research of ensemble learning based on deep network structure and propose a new deep network ensemble framework (DNEF). Unlike other ensemble learning models, DNEF is an ensemble learning architecture of network structures, with serial iteration between the hidden layers, while base classifiers are trained in parallel within these hidden layers. Specifically, DNEF uses randomly sampled data as input and implements serial iteration based on the weighting strategy between hidden layers.… More >

Abstract Developing an automatic and credible diagnostic system to analyze the type, stage, and level of the liver cancer from Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) images is a very challenging and time-consuming endeavor, even for experienced pathologists, due to the non-uniform illumination and artifacts. Albeit several Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) approaches are employed to increase the performance of automatic liver cancer diagnostic systems, the classification accuracy of these systems still needs significant improvement to satisfy the real-time requirement of the diagnostic situations. In this work, we present a new Ensemble Classifier (hereafter called ECNet) to classify the H&E stained… More >

Abstract Breast cancer is one of the leading cancers among women. It has the second-highest mortality rate in women after lung cancer. Timely detection, especially in the early stages, can help increase survival rates. However, manual diagnosis of breast cancer is a tedious and time-consuming process, and the accuracy of detection is reliant on the quality of the images and the radiologist’s experience. However, computer-aided medical diagnosis has recently shown promising results, leading to the need to develop an efficient system that can aid radiologists in diagnosing breast cancer in its early stages. The research presented in this paper is focused… More >

Abstract Facial expression recognition has been a hot topic for decades, but high intraclass variation makes it challenging. To overcome intraclass variation for visual recognition, we introduce a novel fusion methodology, in which the proposed model first extract features followed by feature fusion. Specifically, RestNet-50, VGG-19, and Inception-V3 is used to ensure feature learning followed by feature fusion. Finally, the three feature extraction models are utilized using Ensemble Learning techniques for final expression classification. The representation learnt by the proposed methodology is robust to occlusions and pose variations and offers promising accuracy. To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed model, we… More >
