Abstract
Around the world, several lung diseases such as pneumonia, cardiomegaly, and tuberculosis (TB) contribute to severe illness, hospitalization or even death, particularly for elderly and medically vulnerable patients. In the last few decades, several new types of lung-related diseases have taken the lives of millions of people, and COVID-19 has taken almost 6.27 million lives. To fight against lung diseases, timely and correct diagnosis with appropriate treatment is crucial in the current COVID-19 pandemic. In this study, an intelligent recognition system for seven lung diseases has been proposed based on machine learning (ML) techniques to aid the medical experts. Chest X-ray (CXR) images of lung diseases were collected from several publicly available databases. A lightweight convolutional neural network (CNN) has been used to extract characteristic features from the raw pixel values of the CXR images. The best feature subset has been identified using the Pearson Correlation Coefficient (PCC). Finally, the extreme learning machine (ELM) has been used to perform the classification task to assist faster learning and reduced computational complexity. The proposed CNN-PCC-ELM model achieved an accuracy of 96.22% with an Area Under Curve (AUC) of 99.48% for eight class classification. The outcomes from the proposed model demonstrated better performance than the existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) models in the case of COVID-19, pneumonia, and tuberculosis detection in both binary and multiclass classifications. For eight class classification, the proposed model achieved precision, recall and fi-score and ROC are 100%, 99%, 100% and 99.99% respectively for COVID-19 detection demonstrating its robustness. Therefore, the proposed model has overshadowed the existing pioneering models to accurately differentiate COVID-19 from the other lung diseases that can assist the medical physicians in treating the patient effectively.

Abstract
In this work, we predict the most strongly confined resonant mode of light in strongly disordered systems of dielectric scatterers employing the data-driven approach of machine learning. For training, validation, and test purposes of the proposed regression architecture-based deep neural network (DNN), a dataset containing resonant characteristics of light in 8,400 random arrays of dielectric scatterers is generated employing finite difference time domain (FDTD) analysis technique. To enhance the convergence and accuracy of the overall model, an auto-encoder is utilized as the weight initializer of the regression model, which contains three convolutional layers and three fully connected layers. Given the refractive index profile of the disordered system, the trained model can instantaneously predict the Anderson localized resonant wavelength of light with a minimum error of 0.0037%. A correlation coefficient of 0.95 or higher is obtained between the FDTD simulation results and DNN predictions. Such a high level of accuracy is maintained in inhomogeneous disordered media containing Gaussian distribution of diameter of the scattering particles. Moreover, the prediction scheme is found to be robust against any combination of diameters and fill factors of the disordered medium. The proposed model thereby leverages the benefits of machine learning for predicting the complex behavior of light in strongly disordered systems.

S 2C-DeLeNet: A parameter transfer based segmentation-classification integration for detecting skin cancer lesions from dermoscopic images. Comput Biol Med 2022; 150:106148. [PMID: 36252363 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2022.106148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2022] [Revised: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Dermoscopic images ideally depict pigmentation attributes on the skin surface which is highly regarded in the medical community for detection of skin abnormality, disease or even cancer. The identification of such abnormality, however, requires trained eyes and accurate detection necessitates the process being time-intensive. As such, computerized detection schemes have become quite an essential, especially schemes which adopt deep learning tactics. In this paper, a convolutional deep neural network, S2C-DeLeNet, is proposed, which (i) Performs segmentation procedure of lesion based regions with respect to the unaffected skin tissue from dermoscopic images using a segmentation sub-network, (ii) Classifies each image based on its medical condition type utilizing transferred parameters from the inherent segmentation sub-network. The architecture of the segmentation sub-network contains EfficientNet-B4 backbone in place of the encoder and the classification sub-network bears a 'Classification Feature Extraction' system which pulls trained segmentation feature maps towards lesion prediction. Inside the classification architecture, there have been designed, (i) A 'Feature Coalescing Module' in order to trail and mix each dimensional feature from both encoder and decoder, (ii) A '3D-Layer Residuals' block to create a parallel pathway of low-dimensional features with high variance for better classification. After fine-tuning on a publicly accessible dataset, a mean dice-score of 0.9494 during segmentation is procured which beats existing segmentation strategies and a mean accuracy of 0.9103 is obtained for classification which outperforms conventional and noted classifiers. Additionally, the already fine-tuned network demonstrates highly satisfactory results on other skin cancer segmentation datasets while cross-inference. Extensive experimentation is done to prove the efficacy of the network for not only dermoscopic images but also different medical modalities; which can show its potential in being a systematic diagnostic solution in the field of dermatology and possibly more.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on many lives and the economies of many countries since late December 2019. Early detection with high accuracy is essential to help break the chain of transmission. Several radiological methodologies, such as CT scan and chest X-ray, have been employed in diagnosing and monitoring COVID-19 disease. Still, these methodologies are time-consuming and require trial and error. Machine learning techniques are currently being applied by several studies to deal with COVID-19. This study exploits the latent embeddings of variational autoencoders combined with ensemble techniques to propose three effective EVAE-Net models to detect COVID-19 disease. Two encoders are trained on chest X-ray images to generate two feature maps. The feature maps are concatenated and passed to either a combined or individual reparameterization phase to generate latent embeddings by sampling from a distribution. The latent embeddings are concatenated and passed to a classification head for classification. The COVID-19 Radiography Dataset from Kaggle is the source of chest X-ray images. The performances of the three models are evaluated. The proposed model shows satisfactory performance, with the best model achieving 99.19% and 98.66% accuracy on four classes and three classes, respectively.

Abstract
The COVID-19 epidemic has been causing a global problem since December 2019. COVID-19 is highly contagious and spreads rapidly throughout the world. Thus, early detection is essential. The progression of COVID-19 lung illness has been demonstrated to be aided by chest imaging. The respiratory system is the most vulnerable component of the human body to the COVID virus. COVID can be diagnosed promptly and accurately using images from a chest X-ray and a computed tomography scan. CT scans are preferred over X-rays to rule out other pulmonary illnesses, assist venous entry, and pinpoint any new heart problems. The traditional and trending tools are physical, time-inefficient, and not more accurate. Many techniques for detecting COVID utilizing CT scan images have recently been developed, yet none of them can efficiently detect COVID at an early stage. We proposed a two-dimensional Flexible analytical wavelet transform (FAWT) based on a novel technique in this work. This method is decomposed pre-processed images into sub-bands. Then statistical-based relevant features are extracted, and principal component analysis (PCA) is used to identify robust features. After that, robust features are ranked with the help of the Student's t-value algorithm. Finally, features are applied to Least Square-SVM (RBF) for classification. According to the experimental outcomes, our model beat state-of-the-art approaches for COVID classification. This model attained better classification accuracy of 93.47%, specificity 93.34%, sensitivity 93.6% and F1-score 0.93 using tenfold cross-validation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The traditional method of detecting COVID-19 disease mainly rely on the interpretation of computer tomography (CT) or X-ray images (X-ray) by doctors or professional researchers to identify whether it is COVID-19 disease, which is easy to cause identification mistakes. In this study, the technology of convolutional neural network is expected to be able to efficiently and accurately identify the COVID-19 disease. METHODS This study uses and fine-tunes seven convolutional neural networks including InceptionV3, ResNet50V2, Xception, DenseNet121, MobileNetV2, EfficientNet-B0, and EfficientNetV2 on COVID-19 detection. In addition, we proposes a lightweight convolutional neural network, LightEfficientNetV2, on small number of chest X-ray and CT images. Five-fold cross-validation was used to evaluate the performance of each model. To confirm the performance of the proposed model, LightEfficientNetV2 was carried out on three different datasets (NIH Chest X-rays, SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-CT). RESULTS On chest X-ray image dataset, the highest accuracy 96.50% was from InceptionV3 before fine-tuning; and the highest accuracy 97.73% was from EfficientNetV2 after fine-tuning. The accuracy of the LightEfficientNetV2 model proposed in this study is 98.33% on chest X-ray image. On CT images, the best transfer learning model before fine-tuning is MobileNetV2, with an accuracy of 94.46%; the best transfer learning model after fine-tuning is Xception, with an accuracy of 96.78%. The accuracy of the LightEfficientNetV2 model proposed in this study is 97.48% on CT image. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the SOTA, LightEfficientNetV2 proposed in this study demonstrates promising performance on chest X-ray images, CT images and three different datasets.

Abstract
The recognition of medical images with deep learning techniques can assist physicians in clinical diagnosis, but the effectiveness of recognition models relies on massive amounts of labeled data. With the rampant development of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) worldwide, rapid COVID-19 diagnosis has become an effective measure to combat the outbreak. However, labeled COVID-19 data are scarce. Therefore, we propose a two-stage transfer learning recognition model for medical images of COVID-19 (TL-Med) based on the concept of "generic domain-target-related domain-target domain". First, we use the Vision Transformer (ViT) pretraining model to obtain generic features from massive heterogeneous data and then learn medical features from large-scale homogeneous data. Two-stage transfer learning uses the learned primary features and the underlying information for COVID-19 image recognition to solve the problem by which data insufficiency leads to the inability of the model to learn underlying target dataset information. The experimental results obtained on a COVID-19 dataset using the TL-Med model produce a recognition accuracy of 93.24%, which shows that the proposed method is more effective in detecting COVID-19 images than other approaches and may greatly alleviate the problem of data scarcity in this field.

Abstract
The COVID-19 diffused quickly throughout the world and converted as a pandemic. It has caused a destructive effect on both regular lives, common health and global business. It is crucial to identify positive patients as shortly as desirable to limit this epidemic’s further diffusion and to manage immediately affected cases. The demand for quick assistant distinguishing devices has developed. Recent findings achieved utilizing radiology imaging systems propose that such images include salient data about the COVID-19. The utilization of progressive artificial intelligence (AI) methods linked by radiological imaging can help the reliable diagnosis of COVID-19. As radiography images can recognize pneumonia infections, this research brings an accurate and automatic technique based on a deep residual network to analyze chest X-ray images to monitor COVID-19 and diagnose verified patients. The physician states that it is significantly challenging to separate COVID-19 from common viral and bacterial pneumonia, while COVID-19 is additionally a variety of viruses. The proposed network is expanded to perform detailed diagnostics for two multi-class classification (COVID-19, Normal, Viral Pneumonia) and (COVID-19, Normal, Viral Pneumonia, Bacterial Pneumonia) and binary classification. By comparing the proposed network with the popular methods on public databases, the results show that the proposed algorithm can provide an accuracy of 92.1% in classifying multi-classes of COVID-19, normal, viral pneumonia, and bacterial pneumonia cases. It can be applied to support radiologists in verifying their first viewpoint.
