Abstract

Prostate cancer is the predominant form of cancer observed in men worldwide. The application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a guidance tool for conducting biopsies has been established as a reliable and well-established approach in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. The diagnostic performance of MRI-guided prostate cancer diagnosis exhibits significant heterogeneity due to the intricate and multi-step nature of the diagnostic pathway. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) models, specifically through the utilization of machine learning techniques such as deep learning, is assuming an increasingly significant role in the field of radiology. In the realm of prostate MRI, a considerable body of literature has been dedicated to the development of various AI algorithms. These algorithms have been specifically designed for tasks such as prostate segmentation, lesion identification, and classification. The overarching objective of these endeavors is to enhance diagnostic performance and foster greater agreement among different observers within MRI scans for the prostate. This review article aims to provide a concise overview of the application of AI in the field of radiology, with a specific focus on its utilization in prostate MRI.

Abstract

The treatment of brain tumors poses significant challenges and contributes to a significant number of deaths on a global scale. The process of identifying brain tumors in medical practice involves the visual analysis of photographs by healthcare experts, who manually delineate the tumor locations. However, this approach is characterized by its time-consuming nature and susceptibility to errors. In recent years, scholars have put forth automated approaches to early detection of brain tumors. However, these techniques face challenges attributed to their limited precision and significant false-positive rates. There is a need for an effective methodology to identify and classify tumors, which involves extracting reliable features and achieving precise disease classification. This work presents a novel model architecture that is derived from the EfficientNetB3. The suggested framework has been trained and assessed on a dataset consisting of 7,023 magnetic resonance images. The findings of this study indicate that the fused feature vector exhibits superior performance compared to the individual vectors. Furthermore, the technique that was provided showed superior performance compared to the currently available systems and attained a 100% accuracy rate. As a result, it is viable to employ this technique within a clinical environment for the purpose of categorizing brain tumors based on magnetic resonance images scans.

Abstract

Chemical engineers' formulation, development, and stance processes all heavily rely on models. The physical and economic consequences of these decisions can have disastrous effects. Attempts to employ a hybrid form of artificial intelligence for modeling in various disciplines. However, they fell short of expectations. Due to a rise in the amount of data and computational resources during the previous five years. A lot of recent work has gone into developing new data sources, indexes, chemical interface designs, and machine learning algorithms in an effort to facilitate the adoption of these techniques in the research community. However, there are some important downsides to machine learning gains. The most promising uses for machine learning are in time-critical tasks like real-time optimization and planning that require extreme precision and can build on models that can self-learn to recognize patterns, draw conclusions from data, and become more intelligent over time. Due to their limited exposure to computer science and data analysis, the majority of chemical engineers are potentially vulnerable to the development of artificial intelligence. But in the not-too-distant future, chemical engineers' modeling toolbox will include a reliable machine learning component.

Abstract

In blood smear images, there are difficulties in diagnosing blood cancer diseases like leukemia and lymphoma because of their various forms that appear in the human body. In this paper, a method for automatic detection of blood cancer is suggested that uses the EfficientNet-B3 architecture along with transfer learning techniques to improve accuracy and efficiency. We first fine-tuned the EfficientNet-B3 model, which was pre-trained on a large dataset consisting of annotated blood smear images, to capture pertinent features linked with blood malignant cells. To expedite the training process and adapt the model to our task, we use transfer learning. The proposed approach’s results from our experiments show that it outperforms traditional deep learning models and state-of-the-art methods in blood cancer detection. Additionally, with high precision and recall rates, this model also detects different types of blood cancers with robustness in its performance since its accuracy is over 99%. This means that when used together with the EfficientNet-B3 architecture, transfer learning can help the developed methods generalize among different types of blood cancers and conditions.

Abstract

Technology has advanced and social media users have grown dramatically in the last decade. Because social media makes information easily accessible, some people or organizations distribute false news for political or commercial gain. This news may influence elections and attitudes. Even though English fake news is widely detected and limited, Arabic fake news is hard to recognize owing to a lack of study and data collection. Wara Arabic bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (WaraBERT), a hybrid feature extraction approach, combines word level tokenization with two Arabic bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (AraBERT) variants to provide varied features. The study also discusses eliminating stopwords, punctuations, and tanween markings from Arabic data. This study employed two datasets. The first, Arabic fake news dataset (AFND), has 606,912 records. Second dataset Arabic news (AraNews) has 123,219 entries. WaraBERT-V1 obtained 93.83% AFND accuracy using the bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) model. However, the WaraBERT-V2 technique obtained 81.25%, improving detection accuracy above previous researchers for the AraNews dataset. These findings show that WaraBERT outperforms word list techniques (WLT), term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF), and AraBERT on both datasets.

Abstract

Heart disease continues to be a major worldwide health issue, requiring accurate prediction models to improve early identification and treatment. This research aims to address two main objectives in light of the increasing prevalence of heart-related disorders. Firstly, it aims to determine the most efficient classifier for identifying heart disease among twenty-nine different classifiers that represent six distinct learning strategies. Furthermore, the research seeks to identify the most effective method for selecting features in heart disease datasets. The results show how well different classifiers and feature selection methods work by using two datasets with different features and judging performance using four important criteria. The evaluation results demonstrate that the RandomCommittee classifier outperforms in diagnosing heart illness, displaying strong skills across various learning strategies. This classifier exhibits favorable results in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics, hence confirming its appropriateness for predictive modeling in heart-related datasets. Moreover, the paper examines feature selection methods, specifically aiming to determine the most effective method for enhancing the predicted accuracy of heart disease models. The prediction models' overall performance is enhanced by their capacity to accurately identify and prioritize pertinent variables, thereby facilitating the early detection and management of heart-related problems.

Abstract

In the last few years, deep learning has exhibited its efficacy and capacity in the field of computer vision owing to its exceptional precision and widespread acceptance. The primary objective of this study is to investigate an improved approach for segmentation in the context of various fruit categories. Despite the utilization of deep learning, the current segmentation techniques for various fruit items exhibit subpar performance. The proposed enhanced multiple fruit segmentation algorithm has the following main steps: 1) modifying the size of the filter, 2) the process of optimizing the ResNet-101 block involves selecting the most suitable count of repetitions. The multiple fruit dataset is split 80% in the training stage and 20% in the testing stage. These images were utilized to train a deep learning (DL) based algorithm, which aims to identify multiple fruit items within images accurately. The proposed algorithm has a lower training time compared to the other algorithms. The thresholds exhibit greater values compared to the thresholds of state-of-the-art algorithms.

Abstract

Accurate categorization of Alzheimer’s disease is crucial for medical diagnosis and the development of therapeutic strategies. Deep learning models have shown significant potential in this endeavor; however, they often encounter difficulties due to the intricate and varied characteristics of Alzheimer’s disease. To address this difficulty, we suggest a new and innovative architecture for Alzheimer’s disease classification using magnetic resonance data. This design is named Res-BRNet and combines deep residual and boundary-based convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Res-BRNet utilizes a methodical fusion of boundary-focused procedures within adapted spatial and residual blocks. The spatial blocks retrieve information relating to uniformity, diversity, and boundaries of Alzheimer’s disease, although the residual blocks successfully capture texture differences at both local and global levels. We conducted a performance assessment of Res-BRNet. The Res-BRNet surpassed conventional CNN models, with outstanding levels of accuracy (99.22%). The findings indicate that Res-BRNet has promise as a tool for classifying Alzheimer’s disease, with the ability to enhance the precision and effectiveness of clinical diagnosis and treatment planning

Abstract

Human facial feature extraction plays a critical role in various applications, including biorobotics, polygraph testing, and driver fatigue monitoring. However, many existing algorithms rely on end-to-end models that construct complex classifiers directly from face images, leading to poor interpretability. Additionally, these models often fail to capture dynamic information effectively due to insufficient consideration of respondents' personal characteristics. To address these limitations, this paper evaluates two prominent approaches: the constrained local model (CLM), which accurately extracts facial features depending on patch experts, and the active shape model (ASM), designed to simultaneously extract the appearance and shape of an object. We assess the performance of these models on the MORPH dataset using point to point error as evaluation metrics. Our experimental results demonstrate that the CLM achieves higher accuracy, while the ASM exhibits better efficiency. These findings provide valuable insights for selecting the appropriate model based on specific application requirements.
