COVID-19 appears to be having a devastating influence on world health and well-being. Moreover, the COVID-19 confirmed cases have recently increased to over 10 million worldwide. As the number of verified cases increase, it is more important to monitor and classify healthy and infected people in a timely and accurate manner. Many existing detection methods have failed to detect viral patterns. Henceforth, by using COVID-19 thoracic x-rays and the histogram-oriented gradients (HOG) feature extraction methodology; this research work has created an accurate classification method for performing a reliable detection of COVID-19 viral patterns. Further, the proposed classification model provides good results by leveraging accurate classification of COVID-19 disease based on the medical images. Besides, the performance of our proposed CNN classification method for medical imaging has been assessed based on different edge-based neural networks. Whenever there is an increasing number of a class in the training network, the accuracy of tertiary classification with CNN will be decreasing. Moreover, the analysis of 10 fold cross-validation with confusion metrics can also take place in our research work to detect various diseases caused due to lung infection such as Pneumonia corona virus-positive or negative. The proposed CNN model has been trained and tested with a public X-ray dataset, which is recently published for tertiary and normal classification purposes. For the instance transfer learning, the proposed model has achieved 85% accuracy of tertiary classification that includes normal, COVID-19 positive and Pneumonia. The proposed algorithm obtains good classification accuracy during binary classification procedure integrated with the transfer learning method.

The classification of plug seedlings is important work in the replanting process. This paper proposed a classification method for plug seedlings based on transfer learning. Firstly, by extracting and graying the interest region of the original image acquired, a regional grayscale cumulative distribution curve is obtained. Calculating the number of peak points of the curve to identify the plug tray specification is then done. Secondly, the transfer learning method based on convolutional neural network is used to construct the classification model of plug seedlings. According to the growth characteristics of the seedlings, 2286 seedlings samples were collected to train the model at the two-leaf and one-heart stages. Finally, the image of the interest region is divided into cell images according to the specification of the plug tray, and the cell images are put into the classification model, thereby classifying the qualified seedling, the unqualified seedling and the lack of seedling. After testing, the identification method of the tray specification has an average accuracy of 100% for the three specifications (50 cells, 72 cells, 105 cells) of the 20-day and 25-day pepper seedlings. Seedling classification models based on the transfer learning method of four different convolutional neural networks (Alexnet, Inception-v3, Resnet-18, VGG16) are constructed and tested. The classification accuracy of the VGG16-based classification model is the best, which is 95.50%, the Alexnet-based classification model has the shortest training time, which is 6 min and 8 s. This research has certain theoretical reference significance for intelligent replanting classification work.

AbstractIn today’s world, we find ourselves struggling to fight one of the worst pandemics in the history of humanity known as COVID-2019 caused by a coronavirus. If we detect the virus at an early stage (before it enters the lower respiratory tract), the patient can be treated quickly. Once the virus reaches the lungs, we observe ground-glass opacity in the chest X-ray due to fibrosis in the lungs. Due to the significant differences between X-ray images of an infected and non-infected person, artificial intelligence techniques can be used to identify the presence and severity of the infection. We propose a classification model that can analyze the chest X-rays and help in the accurate diagnosis of COVID-19. Our methodology classifies the chest X-rays into 4 classes viz. normal, pneumonia, tuberculosis (TB), and COVID-19. Further, the X-rays indicating COVID-19 are classified on severity-basis into mild, medium, and severe. The deep learning model used for the classification of pneumonia, TB, and normal is VGG16 with an accuracy of 95.9 %. For the segregation of normal pneumonia and COVID-19, the DenseNet-161 was used with an accuracy of 98.9 %. ResNet-18 worked best for severity classification achieving accuracy up to 76 %. Our approach allows mass screening of the people using X-rays as a primary validation for COVID-19.

AbstractThe COVID-19 epidemic appears to have a catastrophic impact on global well-being and public health. More than 10 million confirmed cases have been reported worldwide until now. Due to the growing number of confirmed cases, timely and accurate classification of healthy and infected patients is essential to control and treat COVID-19. To this end, in this paper, we aim to develop a deep learning-based system for the persuasive classification and reliable detection of COVID-19 using chest radiography. Firstly, we evaluate the performance of various state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks (CNNs) proposed over recent years for medical image classification. Secondly, we develop and train CNN from scratch. In both cases, we use a recently published public X-Ray dataset for training and validation purposes. For transfer learning, we obtain 100% accuracy for binary classification (i.e., Normal/COVID-19) and 87.50% accuracy for tertiary classification (Normal/COVID-19/Pneumonia). With the CNN trained from scratch, we achieve 93.75% accuracy for tertiary classification. We observe, in the case of transfer learning, the classification accuracy drops with an increased number of classes. Our comprehensive ROC and confusion metric analysis with 10-fold cross-validation strongly underpin our findings.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is putting healthcare systems across the world under unprecedented and increasing pressure according to the World Health Organization (WHO). With the advances in computer algorithms and especially Artificial Intelligence, the detection of this type of virus in the early stages will help in fast recovery and help in releasing the pressure off healthcare systems. In this paper, a GAN with deep transfer learning for coronavirus detection in chest X-ray images is presented. The lack of datasets for COVID-19 especially in chest X-rays images is the main motivation of this scientific study. The main idea is to collect all the possible images for COVID-19 that exists until the writing of this research and use the GAN network to generate more images to help in the detection of this virus from the available X-rays images with the highest accuracy possible. The dataset used in this research was collected from different sources and it is available for researchers to download and use it. The number of images in the collected dataset is 307 images for four different types of classes. The classes are the COVID-19, normal, pneumonia bacterial, and pneumonia virus. Three deep transfer models are selected in this research for investigation. The models are the Alexnet, Googlenet, and Restnet18. Those models are selected for investigation through this research as it contains a small number of layers on their architectures, this will result in reducing the complexity, the consumed memory and the execution time for the proposed model. Three case scenarios are tested through the paper, the first scenario includes four classes from the dataset, while the second scenario includes 3 classes and the third scenario includes two classes. All the scenarios include the COVID-19 class as it is the main target of this research to be detected. In the first scenario, the Googlenet is selected to be the main deep transfer model as it achieves 80.6% in testing accuracy. In the second scenario, the Alexnet is selected to be the main deep transfer model as it achieves 85.2% in testing accuracy, while in the third scenario which includes two classes (COVID-19, and normal), Googlenet is selected to be the main deep transfer model as it achieves 100% in testing accuracy and 99.9% in the validation accuracy. All the performance measurement strengthens the obtained results through the research.

Defects Classification

Weld defects detection using X-ray images is an effective method of nondestructive testing. Conventionally, this work is based on qualified human experts, although it requires their personal intervention for the extraction and classification of heterogeneity. Many approaches have been done using machine learning (ML) and image processing tools to solve those tasks. Although the detection and classification have been enhanced with regard to the problems of low contrast and poor quality, their result is still unsatisfying. Unlike the previous research based on ML, this paper proposes a novel classification method based on deep learning network. In this work, an original approach based on the use of the pretrained network AlexNet architecture aims at the classification of the shortcomings of welds and the increase of the correct recognition in our dataset. Transfer learning is used as methodology with the pretrained AlexNet model. For deep learning applications, a large amount of X-ray images is required, but there are few datasets of pipeline welding defects. For this, we have enhanced our dataset focusing on two types of defects and augmented using data augmentation (random image transformations over data such as translation and reflection). Finally, a fine-tuning technique is applied to classify the welding images and is compared to the deep convolutional activation features (DCFA) and several pretrained DCNN models, namely, VGG-16, VGG-19, ResNet50, ResNet101, and GoogLeNet. The main objective of this work is to explore the capacity of AlexNet and different pretrained architecture with transfer learning for the classification of X-ray images. The accuracy achieved with our model is thoroughly presented. The experimental results obtained on the weld dataset with our proposed model are validated using GDXray database. The results obtained also in the validation test set are compared to the others offered by DCNN models, which show a best performance in less time. This can be seen as evidence of the strength of our proposed classification model.

Abstract The coronavirus disease COVID-19 eruption is stated as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. It is affecting around 212 countries and territories across the globe. There is a need to constantly analyze and find patterns from lungs X-Ray images. Early diagnosis can constraint the exposure of person and aids to bound the feast of the virus. The manual diagnosis is quite tedious and time-consuming process. The main aim of this paper is to explore the transfer learning potential. A deep learning framework is proposed adopting the capability of pretrained Deep Convolutional Neural Network models with transfer learning. This assists in classification of the chest X-Ray Images with high level of accuracy. An analysis is done with utilization of six pretrained models – VGG16, VGG19, ResNet50V2, InceptionV3, Xception and NASNetLarge. The experiment results showed that the highest accuracy obtained was 97% using VGG16 and VGG19 with sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 94% respectively.

Diffuse Gliomas

Diffuse gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors and they vary considerably in their morphology, location, genetic alterations, and response to therapy. In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) provided new guidelines for making an integrated diagnosis that incorporates both morphologic and molecular features to diffuse gliomas. In this study, we demonstrate how deep learning approaches can be used for an automatic classification of glioma subtypes and grading using whole-slide images that were obtained from routine clinical practice. A deep transfer learning method using the ResNet50V2 model was trained to classify subtypes and grades of diffuse gliomas according to the WHO’s new 2016 classification. The balanced accuracy of the diffuse glioma subtype classification model with majority voting was 0.8727. These results highlight an emerging role of deep learning in the future practice of pathologic diagnosis.
