Abstract. Introducing Deep Learning has been successful in improving the performance of automated writer identification systems. However, using very large patch sizes as input to CNN consumes a lot of machine resources and requires a lot of training time. To overcome this problem, many researchers use resized images.In this paper, we will try to make a comparative study between several patches sizes which were then resized to a normalized size of 32 × 32. Our aim is to elaborate the best recommendations for choosing the image resizing in order to increase the CNN performance. Thus, we will carry our tests on three databases. The first is CVL, a Latin dataset with 310 writers, the second is CERUG-CH a Chinese dataset with 105 writers and the last is KHATT that contains the Arabic writings of 1000 writers. To see if the type of CNN model impacts the results conducted on resized images, we deploy two models: ResNet-18 and MobileNet. The main finding is that the best results correspond to the resizing values of the images which makes it possible to have the average line height of the writings closer to the height of the CNN patches.

Detection Techniques

Abstract: Alzheimer’s disease is one of the neurodegenerative disorders. It initially starts with innocuous symptoms but gradually becomes severe. This disease is so dangerous because there is no treatment, the disease is detected but typically at a later stage. So it is important to detect Alzheimer at an early stage to counter the disease and for a probable recovery for the patient. There are various approaches currently used to detect symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) at an early stage. The fuzzy system approach is not widely used as it heavily depends on expert knowledge but is quite efficient in detecting AD as it provides a mathematical foundation for interpreting the human cognitive processes. Another more accurate and widely accepted approach is the machine learning detection of AD stages which uses machine learning algorithms like Support Vector Machines (SVMs) , Decision Tree , Random Forests to detect the stage depending on the data provided. The final approach is the Deep Learning approach using multi-modal data that combines image , genetic data and patient data using deep models and then uses the concatenated data to detect the AD stage more efficiently; this method is obscure as it requires huge volumes of data. This paper elaborates on all the three approaches and provides a comparative study about them and which method is more efficient for AD detection. Keywords: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), Fuzzy System , Machine Learning , Deep Learning , Multimodal data

Cervical cancer is a commonly occurring deadliest disease among women, which needs earlier diagnosis to reduce the prevalence. Pap-smear is considered as a widely employed technique to screen and diagnose cervical cancer. Since classical manual screening techniques are inefficient in the identification of cervical cancer, several research works have been started to develop automated machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) tools for cervical cancer diagnosis. This paper surveys the recent works made on cervical cancer diagnosis and classification. The recently presently ML and DL models for cervical cancer diagnosis and classification has been reviewed in detail. Besides, segmentation techniques developed for cervical cancer diagnosis also surveyed. At the end of the survey, a brief comparative study has been carried out to identify the significance of the reviewed methods.
