Abstract

The automation of scoliosis positioning presents a challenging and often understated task, yet it holds fundamental significance for the automated analysis of spinal morphological anomalies. This paper introduces a novel spinal curve localization model for precisely differentiating the spinal curves and identifying their concave centers. The proposed model contains three components: i) custom spine central line model, to define the spine central line as a combination of several secant line sequences with different polarities; ii)  custom curve model, to classify each spinal curve into one of 11 curves types and deduce each its concave centers by several custom formulas; and iii) adapted distance transform and quadratic line fitting algorithm coupled with custom secant line segment searching strategy (DTQL-LS), to search all line segments in the spine and group consecutive line segments with identical polarity into line sequence. Experimental results show that its positioning success rate is close to 99%. Furthermore, it exhibits significant time efficiency, with the average time to process a single image being less than 30 milliseconds. Moreover, even if some image boundaries are blurred, the center of the curve can still be accurately located.

Abstract

Sentiment analysis in social media often hindered by sarcasm, which can reverse text meaning, and bilingual code-mixing, which adds complexity in non-English primary context. Existing approaches extract separate features for each language and translate them into a single language, resulting in the loss of contextual meaning and omission of crucial features. This paper proposes a multitask learning model for sentiment analysis with sarcasm detection tailored to bilingual code-mixed social media content. A hybrid feature engineering technique is integrated into a multitask deep learning architecture designed to capture the nuances of sentiment and sarcasm while addressing the complexities of processing bilingual code-mixed content. The hybrid technique combines domain-knowledge-based natural language processing (NLP) with a deep learning-based embedding approach. It includes rule-based preprocessing, normalization, spellchecking, feature extraction and selection, and feature representation. The engineered features are integrated into a multitask deep learning network using bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM) combined with gated recurrent units (GRU). Using a public dataset that contains bilingual code-mixed social media content related to public security, our proposed model achieved a higher F1score compared to two baseline models that employ single task and multitask approaches.
