Adaptive Graph via Multiple Kernel Learning for Nonnegative Matrix Factorization

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) has been continuously evolving in several areas like pattern recognition and information retrieval methods. It factorizes a matrix into a product of 2 low-rank non-negative matrices that will define parts-based, and linear representation of nonnegative data. Recently, Graph regularized NMF (GrNMF) is proposed to find a compact representation,which uncovers the hidden semantics and simultaneously respects the intrinsic geometric structure. In GNMF, an affinity graph is constructed from the original data space to encode the geometrical information. In this paper, we propose a novel idea which engages a Multiple Kernel Learning approach into refining the graph structure that reflects the factorization of the matrix and the new data space. The GrNMF is improved by utilizing the graph refined by the kernel learning, and then a novel kernel learning method is introduced under the GrNMF framework. Our approach shows encouraging results of the proposed algorithm in comparison to the state-of-the-art clustering algorithms like NMF, GrNMF, SVD etc.Comment: This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the terrible writin

Modified Multi-Wavelet Noise Filtering Algorithm for Mammographic Image Denoising Using Recurrent Neural Network

The digital mammographic images are affected by several types of noises which require filters to denoise the noise level. This will help the medical practitioner to enhance the image quality of the mammograms and helps them in giving accurate diagnosis. There are so many works on image denoising technique but there are not much which gives emphasis on the mammographic images. . In application point of view medical images are classified as Multispectral Image (used for satellite surveillance), RGB standard colour scheme Image or other digital versions of the film image i.e., in our case its mammographic image. For every image type it requires different approach for denoising because in each type of image, it contains different factors in it. In denoising the mammographic image , the filtering technique that is to be applied depend on its noises at each resolution level of the microns to make the micro-classification of the cancerous tissues to that of the bright water dense patches caused by the calcium salts in the mammary glands. Thus, any single algorithm cannot provide similar performance range for different types of noise because not every method is effective for the scenario of mammographic image denoising. In the given study we have shown a method for the mammographic image denoising which is having higher accuracy and the performance range is suited for denoising applications.raphic image denoisin

Artificial intelligence in cancer imaging: Clinical challenges and applications

Judgement, as one of the core tenets of medicine, relies upon the integration of multilayered data with nuanced decision making. Cancer offers a unique context for medical decisions given not only its variegated forms with evolution of disease but also the need to take into account the individual condition of patients, their ability to receive treatment, and their responses to treatment. Challenges remain in the accurate detection, characterization, and monitoring of cancers despite improved technologies. Radiographic assessment of disease most commonly relies upon visual evaluations, the interpretations of which may be augmented by advanced computational analyses. In particular, artificial intelligence (AI) promises to make great strides in the qualitative interpretation of cancer imaging by expert clinicians, including volumetric delineation of tumors over time, extrapolation of the tumor genotype and biological course from its radiographic phenotype, prediction of clinical outcome, and assessment of the impact of disease and treatment on adjacent organs. AI may automate processes in the initial interpretation of images and shift the clinical workflow of radiographic detection, management decisions on whether or not to administer an intervention, and subsequent observation to a yet to be envisioned paradigm. Here, the authors review the current state of AI as applied to medical imaging of cancer and describe advances in 4 tumor types (lung, brain, breast, and prostate) to illustrate how common clinical problems are being addressed. Although most studies evaluating AI applications in oncology to date have not been vigorously validated for reproducibility and generalizability, the results do highlight increasingly concerted efforts in pushing AI technology to clinical use and to impact future directions in cancer care
