Abstract: Early detection of diseases in men and women can improve treatment and reduce the risk involved in human life. Nowadays techniques which are non-invasive in nature are popularly used to detect the various types of diseases. Histopathological analysis plays a major role in finding the nature of the disease through medical images. Manual interpretation of these medical imaging takes time, is tedious, subjective, and can have human errors. It has also been discovered that the interpretation of these images varies amongst diagnostic labs. As computer power and memory capacity have increased, methodologies and medical image processing techniques have been developed …to interpret and analyse these images as a substitute for human involvement. The challenge lies in devising an efficient pre-processing technique that helps in analysing, processing and preparing the medical image for further diagnostics. This research provides a hybrid technique that reduces noise in the NITFI medical image by using a 2D adaptive median filter at level 1. The edges of the filtered medical image are preserved using the modified CLAHE algorithm which preserves the local contrast of the image. Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm extracts the ROI part of the image which helps in easy and accurate identification of the disease. All the three steps are run over the 3D image slices of a NIFTI image. The proposed method proves that it achieves close to ideal RMSE, PSNR and UQI values as well as achieves an average runtime of 37.193 seconds for EM per slice. Show more

Abstract: Brain tumor is observed to be grown in irregular shape and presented deep inside the tissues that led to cancer. Human brain tumor identification and categorization are performed with high latency, but also an essential task for the medical experts. The assistance through the automated diagnosis is generally utilized for the advancement in the diagnosis ability in order to get superior accuracy in brain tumor detection. Although the researches are enhancing the brain tumor detection performance, the highly challenging is to segment the brain tumor since it has variability concerning the tumor type, contrast, image modality and also in other …factors. To meet up all the challenges, a novel classification method is introduced using segmentation and machine learning approaches. Initially, the required images are collected from benchmark data sources. The input images are undergone for pre-processing stage, where it is done via “Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) and filtering methods”. Further, the pre-processed imagesare given as input to two classifier models as “Residual Network (ResNet) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU)”, in which the model provide the result as normal and abnormal images. In the second part, obtained abnormal image acts an input for segmentation step. In segmentation, it is needed to extract the relevant features by texture and spatial features. The resultant features are subjected for optimizing, where the optimal features are acquired through Adaptive Coyote Optimization Algorithm (ACOA). Then, the extracted features are fed into machine learning model like “Support Vector Machine (SVM), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Random Forest (RF)” to render the segmented image. Finally, the hybrid classification named Hybrid ResGRUis developed by integrating the ResNet and GRU, where the hyper parameters are tuned optimally using developed ACOA, thus it is used for classifying the abnormal image that belongs to benign stage or malignant stage. The experimental results are evaluated, and its performance is analyzed by various metrics. Hence, the proposed classification model ensures effective segmentation and classification performance.

Abstract: The worldwide deforestation rate worsens year after year, ultimately resulting in a variety of severe implications for both mankind and the environment. In order to track the success of forest preservation activities, it is crucial to establish a reliable forest monitoring system. Changes in forest status are extremely difficult to manually annotate due to the tiny size and subtlety of the borders involved, particularly in regions abutting residential areas. Previous forest monitoring systems failed because they relied on low-resolution satellite images and drone-based data, both of which have inherent limitations. Most government organizations still use manual annotation, which is a …slow, laborious, and costly way to keep tabs on data. The purpose of this research is to find a solution to these problems by building a poly-highway forest convolution network using deep learning to automatically detect forest borders so that changes over time may be monitored. Here initially the data was curated using the dynamic decomposed kalman filter. Then the data can be augmented. Afterward the augmented image features can be fused using the multimodal discriminant centroid feature clustering. Then the selected area can be segmented using the iterative initial seeded algorithm (IISA). Finally, the level and the driver of deforestation can be classified using the poly-highway forest convolution network (PHFCN). The whole experimentation was carried out in a dataset of 6048 Landsat-8 satellite sub-images under MATLAB environment. From the result obtained the suggested methodology express satisfied performance than other existing mechanisms. Show more

Abstract: Sentiment analysis (SA)at the sentence, aspect, and document levels determines the sentiment of particular aspect phrases in a given sentence. Due to their capacity to extract sentiment information from text in aspect-level sentiment classification, neural networks (NNs) have achieved significant success. Generally speaking, sufficiently sizable training corpora are necessary for NNs to be effective. The performance of NN-based systems is reduced by the small size of the aspect-level corpora currently available. In this research, we suggest a gated bilateral recurrent neural network (G-Bi-RNN) as a foundation for multi-source data fusion, their system offers sentiment information that several sources. We develop …a uniform architecture specifically to include information from sentimental lexicons, including aspect- and sentence-level corpora. To further provide aspect-specific phrase representations for SA, we use G-Bi-RNN, a deep bilateral Transformer-based pre-trained language model. We assess our methods using SemEval 2014 datasets for laptops and restaurants. According to experimental findings, our method consistently outperforms cutting-edge techniques on all datasets. We use a number of well-known aspect-level SA datasets to assess the efficacy of our model. Experiments show that when compared to baseline models, the suggested model can produce state-of-the-art results. Show more

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) devices installed in hospital direct data unceasingly; in this manner, energy usage augments with the number of broadcasts too. In this paper, Reliable Cluster based Data Collection Framework (RCDCF) for IoT-Big Data Healthcare Applications (HA) is developed. During clustering process, the connected IoT devices are grouped into clusters. In clustering technique, the available IoT devices are gathered into groups. The device with high battery capacity and processing ability is selected as a cluster head (CH). Each member of the cluster is allocated multiple slots by applying a general function pooled by the Fog node and the …entire devices. To perceive and eliminate outliers from the sensor data, Density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) method is utilized. To forecast the objective and subjective behaviours of the equipments, a Random Forest Deep Neural Network (RF-DNN) based classification model is utilized. By experimental results, it has been shown that RCDCF achieves 19% and 20% reduced energy consumption at Cloud and Fog centers, respectively. Moreover, RCDCF has 2.1% and 1.3% increased correctness of data at Cloud and Fog data centers, respectively, when compared to the existing framework. Show more

Abstract: SLR, which assists hearing-impaired people to communicate with other persons by sign language, is considered as a promising method. However, as the features of some of the static SL could be the same as the feature in a single frame of dynamic Isolated Sign Language (ISL), the generation of accurate text corresponding to the SL is necessary during the SLR. Therefore, Edge-directed Interpolation-based Recurrent Neural Network (EI-RNN)-centered text generation with varied features of the static and dynamic Isolated SL is proposed in this article. Primarily, ISL videos are converted to frames and pre-processed with key frame extraction and illumination control. …After that, the foreground is separated with the Symmetric Normalised Laplacian-centered Otsu Thresholding (SLOT) technique for finding accurate key points in the human pose. The human pose’s key points are extracted with the Media Pipeline Holistic (MPH) pipeline approach and to improve the features of the face and hand sign, the resultant frame is fused with the depth image. After that, to differentiate the static and dynamic actions, the action change in the fused frames is determined with a correlation matrix. After that, to engender the output text for the respective SL, features are extracted individually as of the static and dynamic frames. It is obtained from the analysis that when analogized to the prevailing models, the proposed EI-RNN’s translation accuracy is elevated by 2.05% in INCLUDE 50 Indian SL based Dataset and Top 1 Accuracy 2.44% and Top 10 accuracy, 1.71% improved in WLASL 100 American SL.

Abstract: The Internet’s evolution resulted in a massive amount of data. As a result, the internet has become more sophisticated and vulnerable to massive attacks. The attack detection system is a key feature for system security in modern networks. The IDS might be signature-based or detect anomalous behavior. Researchers recently created several detection algorithms for identifying network intrusions in vehicular network security, but they failed to detect intrusions effectively. For this reason, the optimal Deep Learning approach, namely Political Fractional Dingo Optimizer (PFDOX)-based Deep belief network is introduced for attack detection in network security for vehicles. The Internet of Vehicle simulation …is done initially, and then the input data is passed into the pre-processing phase, which removes noise present in the data. Then, the feature extraction module receives the pre-processed data. The Deep Maxout Network is trained using the Fractional Dingo optimizer (FDOX)is utilized to detect normal and abnormal behavior. Fractional calculus and Dingo optimizer (DOX) are combined to create the proposed FDOX. Finally, intruder/attack types are classified using the Deep Belief Network, which is tuned using the PFDOX. The PFDOX is created by the assimilation of the DOX, Fractional Calculus, and Political Optimizer (PO). The experimental result shows that the designed PFDOX_DBN for attack type classification offers a better result based on f-measure, precision, and recall with the values of 0.924, 0.916, and 0.932, for the CIC-IDS2017 dataset.

Abstract: Lung cancer incidence and mortality continue to rise rapidly around the world. According to the American Cancer Society, the five-year survivability for individuals in the metastasis phases is significantly lower, highlighting the importance of early lung cancer diagnosis for effective therapy and improved quality of life. To achieve this, it is crucial to combine PET’s sensitivity for recognizing abnormal regions with CT’s anatomical localization for evaluating PET-CT images in computer-assisted detection implementations. Current PET-CT image evaluation methods either run each modality independently or aggregate the data from both, but they often overlook the fact that different visual features encode different …types of data from different modalities. For instance, high atypical PET uptake within the lungs is more crucial for identifying tumors compared to physical PET uptake in the heart. To address the challenges of fine-grained issues during feature extraction and fusion, we propose an interpretable deep learning-based solution for lung cancer diagnosis using CT and PET images. This involves building an Optimal Adversarial Network for merging and an Optimal Attention-based Generative Adversarial Network with Classifier (Opt_att-GANC) to augment the classification of the existence and nonexistence of lung cancer based on extracted features. The performance of the Opt_att-GANC is compared with existing methodologies like global-feature encoding U-Net (GEU-Net), 3D Dense-Net, and 3D Convolutional Neural Network Technique (3D-CNN). Results show that the proposed Opt_att-GANC achieves an F1-score of 67.08%, 93.74% accuracy, 92% precision, 92.1% recall, and 93.74% recall. The prospective study aims to enhance the precision degree with reduced duration by incorporating an ensemble neural network paradigm for feature extraction. Show more

Abstract: With the development of artificial intelligence, deep-learning-based log anomaly detection proves to be an important research topic. In this paper, we propose LogCSS, a novel log anomaly detection framework based on the Context-Semantics-Statistics Convolutional Neural Network (CSSCNN). It is the first model that uses BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers) and CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) to extract the semantic, temporal, and correlational features of the logs. We combine the features with the statistic information of log templates for the classification model to improve the accuracy. We also propose a technique, DOOT (Deals with the Out-Of-Templates), for online template matching. The …experimental research shows that our framework improves the average F1 score of the six best algorithms in the industry by more than 5% on the open-source dataset HDFS, and improves the average F1 score of the six best algorithms in the industry by more than 8% on the BGL dataset, LogCSS also performs better than other similar methods on our own constructed dataset.
