Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the existing world constituting one-third of the cancer cases. Benign skin cancers are not fatal, can be cured with proper medication. But it is not the same as the malignant skin cancers. In the case of malignant melanoma, in its peak stage, the maximum life expectancy is less than or equal to 5 years. But, it can be cured if detected in early stages. Though there are numerous clinical procedures, the accuracy of diagnosis falls between 49% to 81% and is time-consuming. So, dermoscopy has been brought into the picture. It helped in increasing the accuracy of diagnosis but could not demolish the error-prone behaviour. A quick and less error-prone solution is needed to diagnose this majorly growing skin cancer. This project deals with the usage of deep learning in skin lesion classification. In this project, an automated model for skin lesion classification using dermoscopic images has been developed with CNN(Convolution Neural Networks) as a training model. Convolution neural networks are known for capturing features of an image. So, they are preferred in analyzing medical images to find the characteristics that drive the model towards success. Techniques like data augmentation for tackling class imbalance, segmentation for focusing on the region of interest and 10-fold cross-validation to make the model robust have been brought into the picture. This project also includes usage of certain preprocessing techniques like brightening the images using piece-wise linear transformation function, grayscale conversion of the image, resize the image. This project throws a set of valuable insights on how the accuracy of the model hikes with the bringing of new input strategies, preprocessing techniques. The best accuracy this model could achieve is 0.886.

Almost 80 million Americans suffer from hair loss due to aging, stress, medication, or genetic makeup. Hair and scalp-related diseases often go unnoticed in the beginning. Sometimes, a patient cannot differentiate between hair loss and regular hair fall. Diagnosing hair-related diseases is time-consuming as it requires professional dermatologists to perform visual and medical tests. Because of that, the overall diagnosis gets delayed, which worsens the severity of the illness. Due to the image-processing ability, neural network-based applications are used in various sectors, especially healthcare and health informatics, to predict deadly diseases like cancers and tumors. These applications assist clinicians and patients and provide an initial insight into early-stage symptoms. In this study, we used a deep learning approach that successfully predicts three main types of hair loss and scalp-related diseases: alopecia, psoriasis, and folliculitis. However, limited study in this area, unavailability of a proper dataset, and degree of variety among the images scattered over the internet made the task challenging. 150 images were obtained from various sources and then preprocessed by denoising, image equalization, enhancement, and data balancing, thereby minimizing the error rate. After feeding the processed data into the 2D convolutional neural network (CNN) model, we obtained overall training accuracy of 96.2%, with a validation accuracy of 91.1%. The precision and recall score of alopecia, psoriasis, and folliculitis are 0.895, 0.846, and 1.0, respectively. We also created a dataset of the scalp images for future prospective researchers.

While skin cancer classification has been a popular and valuable deep learning application for years, there has been little consideration of the context in which testing images are taken. Traditional melanoma classifiers rely on the assumption that their testing environments are analogous to the structured images on which they are trained. This paper combats this notion, arguing that mole size, a vital attribute in professional dermatology, is a red herring in automated melanoma detection. Although malignant melanomas are consistently larger than benign melanomas, this distinction proves unreliable and harmful when images cannot be contextually scaled. This implementation builds a custom model that eliminates size as a training feature to prevent overfitting to incorrect parameters. Additionally, random rotation and contrast augmentations are performed to simulate the real-world use of melanoma detection applications. Several custom models with varying forms of data augmentation are implemented to demonstrate the most significant features of the generalization abilities of mole classifiers. These implementations show that user unpredictability is crucial when utilizing such applications. The caution required when manually modifying data is acknowledged, as data loss and biased conclusions are necessary considerations in this process. Additionally, mole size inconsistency and its significance are discussed in both the dermatology and deep learning communities.

Skin cancer is the most common malignancy in the world. Automated skin cancer detection would significantly improve early detection rates and prevent deaths. To help with this aim, a number of datasets have been released which can be used to train Deep Learning systems - these have produced impressive results for classification. However, this only works for the classes they are trained on whilst they are incapable of identifying skin lesions from previously unseen classes, making them unconducive for clinical use. We could look to massively increase the datasets by including all possible skin lesions, though this would always leave out some classes. Instead, we evaluate Siamese Neural Networks (SNNs), which not only allows us to classify images of skin lesions, but also allow us to identify those images which are different from the trained classes - allowing us to determine that an image is not an example of our training classes. We evaluate SNNs on both dermoscopic and clinical images of skin lesions. We obtain top-1 classification accuracy levels of 74.33% and 85.61% on clinical and dermoscopic datasets, respectively. Although this is slightly lower than the state-of-the-art results, the SNN approach has the advantage that it can detect out-of-class examples. Our results highlight the potential of an SNN approach as well as pathways towards future clinical deployment.

通过研究视网膜生物结构的进展,可以识别眼病的存在和严重性是可行的。眼底检查是检查眼睛的生物结构和异常的诊断程序。诸如青光眼,糖尿病性视网膜病和白内障等眼科疾病是世界各地视觉障碍的主要原因。眼疾病智能识别(ODIR-5K)是研究人员用于多标签的多份多疾病分类的基准结构底面图像数据集。这项工作提出了一个歧视性内核卷积网络(DKCNET),该网络探讨了歧视区域的特征,而无需增加额外的计算成本。 DKCNET由注意力块组成,然后是挤压和激发(SE)块。注意块从主干网络中获取功能,并生成歧视性特征注意图。 SE块采用区分特征图并改善了通道相互依赖性。使用InceptionResnet骨干网络观察到DKCNET的更好性能,用于具有96.08 AUC,94.28 F1-SCORE和0.81 KAPPA得分的ODIR-5K底面图像的多标签分类。所提出的方法根据诊断关键字将通用目标标签拆分为眼对。基于这些标签,进行了过采样和不足采样以解决阶级失衡。为了检查拟议模型对培训数据的偏见,对ODIR数据集进行了训练的模型将在三个公开可用的基准数据集上进行测试。发现它在完全看不见的底面图像上也具有良好的性能。

皮肤癌的发病率在全世界一直在稳步上升,这是一个严重的问题。早期诊断有可能大大减少疾病造成的伤害,但是,传统活检是一种劳动密集型和侵入性的手术。此外,许多农村社区不容易获得医院,并且不希望因为他们认为可能是小问题而访问一个。使用机器学习和深度学习进行皮肤癌分类可以提高可及性,并减少传统病变检测过程中涉及的不适程序。这些模型可以包裹在网络或移动应用程序中,并为更多的人口提供服务。在本文中,在常见皮肤病变的基准HAM10000数据集上测试了两个这样的模型。它们是带有分层k折的随机森林,并且是Mobilenetv2(在其余的论文中称为Mobilenet)。使用Tensorflow和Pytorch框架分别训练Mobilenet模型。深度学习和机器学习模型的并排比较,以及对在资源约束的移动环境中针对皮肤病变诊断的不同框架的相同深度学习模型的比较。结果表明,这些模型中的每一个在不同的分类任务上都更好。为了获得更大的总回忆,准确性和恶性黑色素瘤的检测,张量流动性是更好的选择。但是,为了检测非癌性皮肤病变,Pytorch Mobilenet被证明更好。当涉及到中等正确性的计算成本低时,随机森林是更好的算法。

Pneumonia, a respiratory infection brought on by bacteria or viruses, affects a large number of people, especially in developing and impoverished countries where high levels of pollution, unclean living conditions, and overcrowding are frequently observed, along with insufficient medical infrastructure. Pleural effusion, a condition in which fluids fill the lung and complicate breathing, is brought on by pneumonia. Early detection of pneumonia is essential for ensuring curative care and boosting survival rates. The approach most usually used to diagnose pneumonia is chest X-ray imaging. The purpose of this work is to develop a method for the automatic diagnosis of bacterial and viral pneumonia in digital x-ray pictures. This article first presents the authors' technique, and then gives a comprehensive report on recent developments in the field of reliable diagnosis of pneumonia. In this study, here tuned a state-of-the-art deep convolutional neural network to classify plant diseases based on images and tested its performance. Deep learning architecture is compared empirically. VGG19, ResNet with 152v2, Resnext101, Seresnet152, Mobilenettv2, and DenseNet with 201 layers are among the architectures tested. Experiment data consists of two groups, sick and healthy X-ray pictures. To take appropriate action against plant diseases as soon as possible, rapid disease identification models are preferred. DenseNet201 has shown no overfitting or performance degradation in our experiments, and its accuracy tends to increase as the number of epochs increases. Further, DenseNet201 achieves state-of-the-art performance with a significantly a smaller number of parameters and within a reasonable computing time. This architecture outperforms the competition in terms of testing accuracy, scoring 95%. Each architecture was trained using Keras, using Theano as the backend.

由于肿胀和病态增大,人体组织中组织的异常发育被称为肿瘤。它们主要被归类为良性和恶性。大脑中的肿瘤可能是致命的,因为它可能是癌性的,因此可以以附近的健康细胞为食并不断增加大小。这可能会影响大脑中软组织,神经细胞和小血管。因此,有必要以最高的精度在早期阶段检测和分类。脑肿瘤的大小和位置不同,这使得很难理解其性质。由于附近的健康细胞与肿瘤之间的相似性,即使使用先进的MRI(磁共振成像)技术,脑肿瘤的检测和分类过程也可能是一项繁重的任务。在本文中,我们使用Keras和Tensorflow来实施最先进的卷积神经网络(CNN)架构,例如EdgitionNetB0,Resnet50,Xpection,MobilenetV2和VGG16,使用转移学习来检测和分类三种类型的大脑肿瘤,即神经胶质瘤,脑膜瘤和垂体。我们使用的数据集由3264个2-D磁共振图像和4个类组成。由于数据集的尺寸较小,因此使用各种数据增强技术来增加数据集的大小。我们提出的方法不仅包括数据增强,而且还包括各种图像降级技术,头骨剥离,裁剪和偏置校正。在我们提出的工作效率NETB0体系结构中,最佳准确性为97.61%。本文的目的是区分正常和异常像素,并以更好的准确性对它们进行分类。

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative disorder affecting the macula, a key area of the retina for visual acuity. Nowadays, it is the most frequent cause of blindness in developed countries. Although some promising treatments have been developed, their effectiveness is low in advanced stages. This emphasizes the importance of large-scale screening programs. Nevertheless, implementing such programs for AMD is usually unfeasible, since the population at risk is large and the diagnosis is challenging. All this motivates the development of automatic methods. In this sense, several works have achieved positive results for AMD diagnosis using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, none incorporates explainability mechanisms, which limits their use in clinical practice. In that regard, we propose an explainable deep learning approach for the diagnosis of AMD via the joint identification of its associated retinal lesions. In our proposal, a CNN is trained end-to-end for the joint task using image-level labels. The provided lesion information is of clinical interest, as it allows to assess the developmental stage of AMD. Additionally, the approach allows to explain the diagnosis from the identified lesions. This is possible thanks to the use of a CNN with a custom setting that links the lesions and the diagnosis. Furthermore, the proposed setting also allows to obtain coarse lesion segmentation maps in a weakly-supervised way, further improving the explainability. The training data for the approach can be obtained without much extra work by clinicians. The experiments conducted demonstrate that our approach can identify AMD and its associated lesions satisfactorily, while providing adequate coarse segmentation maps for most common lesions.

皮肤病变的准确和公正检查对于早期诊断和治疗皮肤疾病至关重要。皮肤病变的视觉特征明显差异,因为图像是通过使用不同的成像设备从具有不同病变颜色和形态的患者中收集的。最近的研究报告说,结合卷积神经网络(CNN)是实用的,可以对图像进行分类以早期诊断皮肤疾病。但是,这些连接的CNN的实际使用受到限制,因为这些网络是重量级的,并且不足以处理上下文信息。尽管开发了轻量级网络(例如MobileNetV3和ExcilityNet),以减少参数来实现移动设备上的深神经网络,但功能表示深度不足会限制性能。为了解决现有的局限性,我们开发了一个新的精简神经网络,即Hierattn。 Hierattn采用了一种新颖的深度监督策略,通过使用只有一种训练损失的多阶段和多分支注意力机制来学习本地和全球特征。通过使用皮肤镜图像数据集ISIC2019和智能手机照片数据集PAD-FIFES-20(PAD2020)评估Hierattn的功效。实验结果表明,Hierattn在最先进的轻量级网络中达到了曲线(AUC)下最佳的精度和面积。该代码可从https://github.com/anthonyweidai/hierattn获得。
