Abstract

Skin cancer (SC) is a highly serious kind of cancer that, if not addressed swiftly, might result in the patient’s demise. Early detection of this condition allows for more effective therapy and prevents disease development. Deep Learning (DL) approaches may be used as an effective and efficient tool for SC detection (SCD). Several DL-based algorithms for automated SCD have been reported. However, more efficient models are needed to improve accuracy. As a result, this paper introduces a new strategy for SCD based on Grey Wolf optimization (GWO) methodologies and CNN. The proposed methodology has four stages: preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction, and classification. The proposed method utilizes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to extract features from Regions of Interest (ROIs). CNN is employed for feature categorization, whereas the GWO approach enhances accuracy by refining edge detection and segmentation. This technique utilizes a probabilistic model to accelerate the convergence of the GWO algorithm. Employing the GWO model to optimize the structure and weight vectors of CNNs can enhance diagnostic accuracy by a minimum of 5%, based on evaluation outcomes. The application of the proposed strategy and its performance comparison with other methods indicate that the proposed method with GWO predicted SC with an average accuracy of 95.11% and without GWO an Accuracy of 92.66%, respectively, enhancing accuracy by a minimum of 2.5% when we train our model with GWO.

Abstract

Expanding extensive and intricate social networks has required sophisticated community detection techniques. This study presents an innovative hybrid methodology that utilizes node space similarity and local knowledge to enhance community identification. Node space similarity is defined by integrating eigenvector centrality (EC), which quantifies a node’s influence inside the network, with proximity metrics, such as closeness, to evaluate the connectivity between nodes. This enables us to identify cohorts of individuals with analogous influence and connectivity. We use local knowledge by concentrating on these pivotal nodes' direct connections and attributes, allowing the technique to broaden community discovery (CD) outward effectively. Our five-phase methodology, grounded in an iterative seed expansion algorithm, commences with identifying highly central nodes and progressively develops communities by integrating nodes exhibiting high similarity and local connectivity. The method incorporates graph statistical inference and embedding features to improve accuracy and capture extensive network patterns. This integrated approach facilitates the precise and effective identification of communities within extensive social networks, exceeding the constraints of conventional techniques. This research attained a modularity of 95.05% on the DBLP dataset and 94.50% on the Amazon dataset. This study achieved a Normalized Mutual Information (NMI) of 91.80% on the DBLP dataset, 92.50% on the Amazon dataset, and 90.43% on the football dataset, demonstrating superior performance relative to previous methodologies. The findings indicate that the hybrid method outperforms other recognized methods in large-scale graphs, showcasing notable robustness and efficiency.
