Diabetic retinopathy is an eye disease caused by high blood sugar and pressure which damages the blood vessels in the eye. Diabetic retinopathy is the root cause of more than 1% of the blindness worldwide. Early detection of this disease is crucial as it prevents it from progressing to a more severe level. However, the current machine learning-based approaches for detecting the severity level of diabetic retinopathy are either, i) rely on manually extracting features which makes an approach unpractical, or ii) trained on small dataset thus cannot be generalized. In this study, we propose a transfer learning-based approach for detecting the severity level of the diabetic retinopathy with high accuracy. Our model is a deep learning model based on global average pooling (GAP) technique with various pre-trained convolutional neural net- work (CNN) models. The experimental results of our approach, in which our best model achieved 82.4% quadratic weighted kappa (QWK), corroborate the ability of our model to detect the severity level of diabetic retinopathy efficiently.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a dangerous eye condition that affects diabetic patients. Without early detection, it can affect the retina and may eventually cause permanent blindness. The early diagnosis of DR is crucial for its treatment. However, the diagnosis of DR is a very difficult process that requires an experienced ophthalmologist. A breakthrough in the field of artificial intelligence called deep learning can help in giving the ophthalmologist a second opinion regarding the classification of the DR by using an autonomous classifier. To accurately train a deep learning model to classify DR, an enormous number of images is required, and this is an important limitation in the DR domain. Transfer learning is a technique that can help in overcoming the scarcity of images. The main idea that is exploited by transfer learning is that a deep learning architecture, previously trained on non-medical images, can be fine-tuned to suit the DR dataset. This paper reviews research papers that focus on DR classification by using transfer learning to present the best existing methods to address this problem. This review can help future researchers to find out existing transfer learning methods to address the DR classification task and to show their differences in terms of performance.

Diabetes is a global disease that occurs when the body is disabled pancreas to secrete insulin to convert the sugar to power in the blood. As a result, some tiny blood vessels on the part of the body, such as the eyes, are affected by high sugar and cause blocking blood flow in the vessels, which is called diabetic retinopathy.  This disease may lead to permanent blindness due to the growth of new vessels in the back of the retina causing it to detach from the eyes. In 2016, 387 million people were diagnosed with Diabetic retinopathy, and the number is growing yearly, and the old detection approach becomes worse. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to computerize the old method of detecting different classes of DR from 0-4 according to severity by given fundus images. The method is to construct a fine-tuned deep learning model based on transfer learning with dense layers. The used models here are InceptionV3, VGG16, and ResNet50 with a sharpening filter. Subsequently, InceptionV3 has achieved 94% as the highest accuracy among other models.

Over the years the need for differentiating various emotions from oral communication plays an important role in emotion based studies. There have been different algorithms to classify the kinds of emotion. Although there is no measure of fidelity of the emotion under consideration, which is primarily due to the reason that most of the readily available datasets that are annotated are produced by actors and not generated in real-world scenarios. Therefore, the predicted emotion lacks an important aspect called authenticity, which is whether an emotion is actual or stimulated. In this research work, we have developed a transfer learning and style transfer based hybrid convolutional neural network algorithm to classify the emotion as well as the fidelity of the emotion. The model is trained on features extracted from a dataset that contains stimulated as well as actual utterances. We have compared the developed algorithm with conventional machine learning and deep learning techniques by few metrics like accuracy, Precision, Recall and F1 score. The developed model performs much better than the conventional machine learning and deep learning models. The research aims to dive deeper into human emotion and make a model that understands it like humans do with precision, recall, F1 score values of 0.994, 0.996, 0.995 for speech authenticity and 0.992, 0.989, 0.99 for speech emotion classification respectively.

Recently, as computer vision and image processing technologies have rapidly advanced in the artificial intelligence (AI) field, deep learning technologies have been applied in the field of urban and regional study through transfer learning. In the tourism field, studies are emerging to analyze the tourists’ urban image by identifying the visual content of photos. However, previous studies have limitations in properly reflecting unique landscape, cultural characteristics, and traditional elements of the region that are prominent in tourism. With the purpose of going beyond these limitations of previous studies, we crawled 168,216 Flickr photos, created 75 scenes and 13 categories as a tourist’ photo classification by analyzing the characteristics of photos posted by tourists and developed a deep learning model by continuously re-training the Inception-v3 model. The final model shows high accuracy of 85.77% for the Top 1 and 95.69% for the Top 5. The final model was applied to the entire dataset to analyze the regions of attraction and the tourists’ urban image in Seoul. We found that tourists feel attracted to Seoul where the modern features such as skyscrapers and uniquely designed architectures and traditional features such as palaces and cultural elements are mixed together in the city. This work demonstrates a tourist photo classification suitable for local characteristics and the process of re-training a deep learning model to effectively classify a large volume of tourists’ photos.

PurposeDiabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the dangerous complications of diabetes. Its grade level must be tracked to manage its progress and to start the appropriate decision for treatment in time. Effective automated methods for the detection of DR and the classification of its severity stage are necessary to reduce the burden on ophthalmologists and diagnostic contradictions among manual readers.Design/methodology/approachIn this research, convolutional neural network (CNN) was used based on colored retinal fundus images for the detection of DR and classification of its stages. CNN can recognize sophisticated features on the retina and provides an automatic diagnosis. The pre-trained VGG-16 CNN model was applied using a transfer learning (TL) approach to utilize the already learned parameters in the detection.FindingsBy conducting different experiments set up with different severity groupings, the achieved results are promising. The best-achieved accuracies for 2-class, 3-class, 4-class and 5-class classifications are 86.5, 80.5, 63.5 and 73.7, respectively.Originality/valueIn this research, VGG-16 was used to detect and classify DR stages using the TL approach. Different combinations of classes were used in the classification of DR severity stages to illustrate the ability of the model to differentiate between the classes and verify the effect of these changes on the performance of the model.

Objective: To verify the ability of the deep learning model in identifying five subtypes and normal images in noncontrast enhancement CT of intracranial hemorrhage. Method: A total of 351 patients (39 patients in the normal group, 312 patients in the intracranial hemorrhage group) performed with intracranial hemorrhage noncontrast enhanced CT were selected, with 2768 images in total (514 images for the normal group, 398 images for the epidural hemorrhage group, 501 images for the subdural hemorrhage group, 497 images for the intraventricular hemorrhage group, 415 images for the cerebral parenchymal hemorrhage group, and 443 images for the subarachnoid hemorrhage group). Based on the diagnostic reports of two radiologists with more than 10 years of experience, the ResNet-18 and DenseNet-121 deep learning models were selected. Transfer learning was used. 80% of the data was used for training models, 10% was used for validating model performance against overfitting, and the last 10% was used for the final evaluation of the model. Assessment indicators included accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and AUC values. Results: The overall accuracy of ResNet-18 and DenseNet-121 models were 89.64% and 82.5%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of identifying five subtypes and normal images were above 0.80. The sensitivity of DenseNet-121 model to recognize intraventricular hemorrhage and cerebral parenchymal hemorrhage was lower than 0.80, 0.73, and 0.76 respectively. The AUC values of the two deep learning models were above 0.9. Conclusion: The deep learning model can accurately identify the five subtypes of intracranial hemorrhage and normal images, and it can be used as a new tool for clinical diagnosis in the future.
