A Novel Hybrid CNN Denoising Technique (HDCNN) for Image Denoising with Improved Performance
Photo denoising has been tackled by deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with powerful learning capabilities. Unfortunately, some CNNs perform badly on complex displays because they only train one deep network for their image blurring models. We recommend a hybrid CNN denoising technique (HDCNN) to address this problem. An HDCNN consists of a dilated interfere with, a RepVGG block, an attribute sharpening interferes with, as well as one inversion. To gather more context data, DB incorporates a stretched convolution, data sequential normalization (BN), shared convergence, and the activating function called the ReLU. Convolution, BN, and reLU are combined in parallel by RVB to obtain complimentary width characteristics. The RVB's refining characteristics are used to refine FB, which is then utilized to collect more precise data. To create a crisp image, a single convolution works in conjunction with a residual learning process. These crucial elements enable the HDCNN to carry out visual denoising efficiently. The suggested HDCNN has a good denoising performance in open data sets, according to experiments
What Twitter Profile and Posted Images Reveal About Depression and Anxiety
Previous work has found strong links between the choice of social media
images and users' emotions, demographics and personality traits. In this study,
we examine which attributes of profile and posted images are associated with
depression and anxiety of Twitter users. We used a sample of 28,749 Facebook
users to build a language prediction model of survey-reported depression and
anxiety, and validated it on Twitter on a sample of 887 users who had taken
anxiety and depression surveys. We then applied it to a different set of 4,132
Twitter users to impute language-based depression and anxiety labels, and
extracted interpretable features of posted and profile pictures to uncover the
associations with users' depression and anxiety, controlling for demographics.
For depression, we find that profile pictures suppress positive emotions rather
than display more negative emotions, likely because of social media
self-presentation biases. They also tend to show the single face of the user
(rather than show her in groups of friends), marking increased focus on the
self, emblematic for depression. Posted images are dominated by grayscale and
low aesthetic cohesion across a variety of image features. Profile images of
anxious users are similarly marked by grayscale and low aesthetic cohesion, but
less so than those of depressed users. Finally, we show that image features can
be used to predict depression and anxiety, and that multitask learning that
includes a joint modeling of demographics improves prediction performance.
Overall, we find that the image attributes that mark depression and anxiety
offer a rich lens into these conditions largely congruent with the
psychological literature, and that images on Twitter allow inferences about the
mental health status of users.Comment: ICWSM 201
A Review of Skin Melanoma Detection Based on Machine Learning
Dermatological malignancies, such as skin cancer, are the most extensively known kinds of human malignancies in people with fair skin. Despite the fact that malignant melanoma is the type of skin cancer that is associated with the highest mortality rate, the non-melanoma skin tumors are unquestionably normal. The frequency of both melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers is increasing, and the number of cases being studied is increasing at a reasonably regular period, according to the National Cancer Institute. Early detection of skin cancer can help patient’s live longer lives by reducing their mortality rate. In this research, we will look at various approaches for initiating period melanoma skin cancer detection and compare them. Pathologists use biopsies to diagnose skin lesions, and they base their decisions on cell life systems and tissue transport in many cases. However, in many cases, the decision is emotional, and it commonly results in significant changeability. The application of quantitative measures by PC diagnostic devices, on the other hand, allows for more accurate target judgment. This research examines the preceding period as well as current advancements in the field of machine-aided skin cancer detection (MASCD)
