In the current era of technological development, medical imaging plays an important role in many applications of medical diagnosis and therapy. In this regard, medical image fusion could be a powerful tool to combine multi-modal images by using image processing techniques. But, conventional approaches failed to provide the effective image quality assessments and robustness of fused image. To overcome these drawbacks, in this work three-stage multiscale decomposition (TSMSD) using pulse-coupled neural networks with adaptive arguments (PCNN-AA) approach is proposed for multi-modal medical image fusion. Initially, nonsubsampled shearlet transform (NSST) is applied onto the source images to decompose them into low frequency and high frequency bands. Then, low frequency bands of both the source images are fused using nonlinear anisotropic filtering with discrete Karhunen–Loeve transform (NLAF-DKLT) methodology. Next, high frequency bands obtained from NSST are fused using PCNN-AA approach. Now, fused low frequency and high frequency bands are reconstructed using NSST reconstruction. Finally, band fusion rule algorithm with pyramid reconstruction is applied to get final fused medical image. Extensive simulation outcome discloses the superiority of proposed TSMSD using PCNN-AA approach as compared to state-of-the-art medical image fusion methods in terms of fusion quality metrics such as entropy (E), mutual information (MI), mean (M), standard deviation (STD), correlation coefficient (CC) and computational complexity.

Abstract Ocean current, fluid mechanics, and many other physical systems with spatio-temporal dynamics are essential components of the universe. One key characteristic of such systems is that they can be represented by certain physics laws, such as ordinary/partial differential equations (ODEs/PDEs), irrespective of time or location. Physics-informed machine learning has recently emerged to learn physics from data for accurate prediction, but they often lack a mechanism to leverage localized spatial and temporal correlation or rely on hard-coded physics parameters. In this paper, we advocate a physics-coupled neural network model to learn parameters governing the physics of the system, and further couple the learned physics to assist the learning of recurring dynamics. Here a spatio-temporal physics-coupled neural network (ST-PCNN) model is proposed to achieve three goals: (1) learning the underlying physics parameters, (2) transition of local information between spatio-temporal regions, and (3) forecasting future values for the dynamical system. The physics-coupled learning ensures that the proposed model can be tremendously improved by using learned physics parameters, and can achieve useful long-range forecasting (e.g., more than two weeks). Experiments using simulated wave propagation and field-collected ocean current data validate that ST-PCNN outperforms typical deep learning models and existing physics-informed models.

Nonlinear systems of differential equations with delay, which are mathematical models of fully connected networks of impulse neurons, are considered. Purpose of this work is to study the dynamic properties of one special class of solutions to these systems. Large parameter methods are used to study the existence and stability in сonsidered models of special periodic motions – the so-called group dominance or k-dominance modes, where k ∈ N. Results. It is shown that each such regime is a relaxation cycle, exactly k components of which perform synchronous impulse oscillations, and all other components are asymptotically small. The maximum number of stable coexisting group dominance cycles in the system with an appropriate choice of parameters is 2m − 1, where m is the number of network elements. Conclusion. Considered model with maximum possible number of couplings allows us to describe the most complex and diverse behavior that may be observed in biological neural associations. A feature of the k-dominance modes we have considered is that some of the network neurons are in a non-working (refractory) state. Each periodic k-dominance mode can be associated with a binary vector (α1, α2, . . . , αm), where αj = 1 if the j-th neuron is active and αj = 0 otherwise. Taking this into account, we come to the conclusion that these modes can be used to build devices with associative memory based on artificial neural networks.
