Multi-class Cervical Cancer Classification using Transfer Learning-based Optimized SE-ResNet152 model in Pap Smear Whole Slide Images

Among the main factors contributing to death globally is cervical cancer, regardless of whether it can be avoided and treated if the afflicted tissues are removed early. Cervical screening programs must be made accessible to everyone and effectively, which is a difficult task that necessitates, among other things, identifying the population\u27s most vulnerable members. Therefore, we present an effective deep-learning method for classifying the multi-class cervical cancer disease using Pap smear images in this research. The transfer learning-based optimized SE-ResNet152 model is used for effective multi-class Pap smear image classification. The reliable significant image features are accurately extracted by the proposed network model. The network\u27s hyper-parameters are optimized using the Deer Hunting Optimization (DHO) algorithm. Five SIPaKMeD dataset categories and six CRIC dataset categories constitute the 11 classes for cervical cancer diseases. A Pap smear image dataset with 8838 images and various class distributions is used to evaluate the proposed method. The introduction of the cost-sensitive loss function throughout the classifier\u27s learning process rectifies the dataset\u27s imbalance. When compared to prior existing approaches on multi-class Pap smear image classification, 99.68% accuracy, 98.82% precision, 97.86% recall, and 98.64% F1-Score are achieved by the proposed method on the test set. For automated preliminary diagnosis of cervical cancer diseases, the proposed method produces better identification results in hospitals and cervical cancer clinics due to the positive classification results

Dimensionality reduction and hierarchical clustering in framework for hyperspectral image segmentation

The hyperspectral data contains hundreds of narrows bands representing the same scene on earth, with each pixel has a continuous reflectance spectrum. The first attempts to analysehyperspectral images were based on techniques that were developed for multispectral images by randomly selecting few spectral channels, usually less than seven. This random selection of bands degrades the performance of segmentation algorithm on hyperspectraldatain terms of accuracies. In this paper, a new framework is designed for the analysis of hyperspectral image by taking the information from all the data channels with dimensionality reduction method using subset selection and hierarchical clustering. A methodology based on subset construction is used for selecting k informative bands from d bands dataset. In this selection, similarity metrics such as Average Pixel Intensity [API], Histogram Similarity [HS], Mutual Information [MI] and Correlation Similarity [CS] are used to create k distinct subsets and from each subset, a single band is selected. The informative bands which are selected are merged into a single image using hierarchical fusion technique. After getting fused image, Hierarchical clustering algorithm is used for segmentation of image. The qualitative and quantitative analysis shows that CS similarity metric in dimensionality reduction algorithm gets high quality segmented image

Human Face Emotions Recognition from Thermal Images Using DenseNet

In the current scenario face identification and recognition is an important technique in surveillance. The face is a necessary biometric in humans. Therefore face detection plays a major job in computer vision applications. Several face recognition and emotions classification approaches have been presented throughout the last few decades of research to improve the rate of face recognition for thermal pictures. However, in real-time, lighting conditions might change due to several factors, such as the different times of capture, weather, etc. Due to variations in lighting intensity, the performance of the facial expression recognition system is not good. This paper proposed a model for human thermal face detection and expression classification. Four main steps were involved in this research. Initially, the Difference of the Gaussian (DOG) filter is utilized to crop the input thermal images and then normalize the images using the median filter in pre-processing step. Then, Efficient Net is used for extracting features such as shape, location, and occurrences from thermal face images. After that, detect human faces utilized by the YOLOv4 technique to better emotions classification. Finally, classify the emotions on faces by using the DenseNet technique into seven emotions such as happy, sad, disgust, surprise, anger, fear, and neutral. The proposed method outperforms state-of-art techniques for face recognition on thermal pictures, and classifies the expressions, according to experimentations on the RGB-D-T database. The accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-score metrics will be utilized with the database to assess the efficacy of the proposed methodology. The proposed models achieve a high classification accuracy of 95.97% on the RGB-D-T database. Furthermore, the outcomes show good precision for various face recognition tasks
