Abstract In the domain of medical imaging, the accurate detection and classification of brain tumors is very important. This study introduces an advanced method for identifying camouflaged brain tumors within images. Our proposed model consists of three steps: Feature extraction, feature fusion, and then classification. The core of this model revolves around a feature extraction framework that combines color-transformed images with deep learning techniques, using the ResNet50 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture. So the focus is to extract robust feature from MRI images, particularly emphasizing weighted average features extracted from the first convolutional layer renowned for… More >

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death globally. This disease causes loss of heart muscles and is also responsible for the death of heart cells, sometimes damaging their functionality. A person’s life may depend on receiving timely assistance as soon as possible. Thus, minimizing the death ratio can be achieved by early detection of heart attack (HA) symptoms. In the United States alone, an estimated 610,000 people die from heart attacks each year, accounting for one in every four fatalities. However, by identifying and reporting heart attack symptoms early on, it is possible to… More >

Abstract Industrial activities, through the human-induced release of Green House Gas (GHG) emissions, have been identified as the primary cause of global warming. Accurate and quantitative monitoring of these emissions is essential for a comprehensive understanding of their impact on the Earth’s climate and for effectively enforcing emission regulations at a large scale. This work examines the feasibility of detecting and quantifying industrial smoke plumes using freely accessible geo-satellite imagery. The existing system has so many lagging factors such as limitations in accuracy, robustness, and efficiency and these factors hinder the effectiveness in supporting timely response… More >

Abstract Skin cancer diagnosis is difficult due to lesion presentation variability. Conventional methods struggle to manually extract features and capture lesions spatial and temporal variations. This study introduces a deep learning-based Convolutional and Recurrent Neural Network (CNN-RNN) model with a ResNet-50 architecture which used as the feature extractor to enhance skin cancer classification. Leveraging synergistic spatial feature extraction and temporal sequence learning, the model demonstrates robust performance on a dataset of 9000 skin lesion photos from nine cancer types. Using pre-trained ResNet-50 for spatial data extraction and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) for temporal dependencies, the model More >

Abstract Due to the rapid evolution of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) attacks, the emergence of new and rare attack samples, and even those never seen before, make it challenging for traditional rule-based detection methods to extract universal rules for effective detection. With the progress in techniques such as transfer learning and meta-learning, few-shot network attack detection has progressed. However, challenges in few-shot network attack detection arise from the inability of time sequence flow features to adapt to the fixed length input requirement of deep learning, difficulties in capturing rich information from original flow in the case… More >

Abstract Recently, the coronavirus disease 2019 has shown excellent attention in the global community regarding health and the economy. World Health Organization (WHO) and many others advised controlling Corona Virus Disease in 2019. The limited treatment resources, medical resources, and unawareness of immunity is an essential horizon to unfold. Among all resources, wearing a mask is the primary non-pharmaceutical intervention to stop the spreading of the virus caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) droplets. All countries made masks mandatory to prevent infection. For such enforcement, automatic and effective face detection systems are crucial.… More >

Abstract Printed Circuit Board (PCB) surface tiny defect detection is a difficult task in the integrated circuit industry, especially since the detection of tiny defects on PCB boards with large-size complex circuits has become one of the bottlenecks. To improve the performance of PCB surface tiny defects detection, a PCB tiny defects detection model based on an improved attention residual network (YOLOX-AttResNet) is proposed. First, the unsupervised clustering performance of the K-means algorithm is exploited to optimize the channel weights for subsequent operations by feeding the feature mapping into the SENet (Squeeze and Excitation Network) attention… More >

Abstract Heart disease is a major cause of death for many people in the world. Each year the death rate of people affected with heart disease increased a lot. Machine learning models have been widely used for the prediction of heart disease from the different University of California Irvine (UCI) Machine Learning Repositories. But, due to certain data, it predicts less accurately, whereas, for large data, its sub-model deep learning is used. Our literature work has identified that only traditional methods are used for the prediction of heart disease. It will produce less accuracy. To produce… More >

Abstract Vehicle interior noise has emerged as a crucial assessment criterion for automotive NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness). When analyzing the NVH performance of the vehicle body, the traditional SEA (Statistical Energy Analysis) simulation technology is usually limited by the accuracy of the material parameters obtained during the acoustic package modeling and the limitations of the application conditions. In order to effectively solve these shortcomings, based on the analysis of the vehicle noise transmission path, a multi-level objective decomposition architecture of the interior noise at the driver’s right ear is established. Combined with the data-driven method, More >
