Abstract Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is a fatal malignancy that is featured by the abnormal increase of immature lymphocytes in blood or bone marrow. Early prognosis of ALL is indispensable for the effectual remediation of this disease. Initial screening of ALL is conducted through manual examination of stained blood smear microscopic images, a process which is time-consuming and prone to errors. Therefore, many deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems have been established to automatically diagnose ALL. This paper proposes a novel hybrid deep learning system for ALL diagnosis in blood smear images. The introduced system integrates the proficiency of autoencoder networks… More >

Abstract With technological advancements, deep machine learning can assist doctors in identifying the brain mass or tumor using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This work extracts the deep features from 18-pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to train the classical classifiers to categorize the brain MRI images. As a result, DenseNet-201, EfficientNet-b0, and DarkNet-53 deep features trained support vector machine (SVM) model shows the best accuracy. Furthermore, the ReliefF method is applied to extract the best features. Then, the fitness function is defined to select the number of nearest neighbors of ReliefF algorithm and feature vector size. Finally, the particle swarm optimization algorithm… More >

Abstract The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and cloud-based healthcare applications, services are beneficial for better decision-making in recent years. Melanoma is a deadly cancer with a higher mortality rate than other skin cancer types such as basal cell, squamous cell, and Merkel cell. However, detection and treatment at an early stage can result in a higher chance of survival. The classical methods of detection are expensive and labor-intensive. Also, they rely on a trained practitioner's level, and the availability of the needed equipment is essential for the early detection of Melanoma. The current improvement in computer-aided systems is providing very… More >

Abstract Data fusion is one of the challenging issues, the healthcare sector is facing in the recent years. Proper diagnosis from digital imagery and treatment are deemed to be the right solution. Intracerebral Haemorrhage (ICH), a condition characterized by injury of blood vessels in brain tissues, is one of the important reasons for stroke. Images generated by X-rays and Computed Tomography (CT) are widely used for estimating the size and location of hemorrhages. Radiologists use manual planimetry, a time-consuming process for segmenting CT scan images. Deep Learning (DL) is the most preferred method to increase the efficiency of diagnosing ICH. In… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of information technology, the speed and efficiency of image retrieval are increasingly required in many fields, and a compelling image retrieval method is critical for the development of information. Feature extraction based on deep learning has become dominant in image retrieval due to their discrimination more complete, information more complementary and higher precision. However, the high-dimension deep features extracted by CNNs (convolutional neural networks) limits the retrieval efficiency and makes it difficult to satisfy the requirements of existing image retrieval. To solving this problem, the high-dimension feature reduction technology is proposed with improved CNN and PCA… More >

Abstract With the development of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs), the extracted features for image recognition tasks have shifted from low-level features to the high-level semantic features of DCNNs. Previous studies have shown that the deeper the network is, the more abstract the features are. However, the recognition ability of deep features would be limited by insufficient training samples. To address this problem, this paper derives an improved Deep Fusion Convolutional Neural Network (DF-Net) which can make full use of the differences and complementarities during network learning and enhance feature expression under the condition of limited datasets. Specifically, DF-Net organizes two… More >
