Increasing validation accuracy of a face mask detection by new deep learning model-based classification

During COVID-19, wearing a mask was globally mandated in various workplaces, departments, and offices. New deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) based classifications were proposed to increase the validation accuracy of face mask detection. This work introduces a face mask model that is able to recognize whether a person is wearing mask or not. The proposed model has two stages to detect and recognize the face mask;at the first stage, the Haar cascade detector is used to detect the face, while at the second stage, the proposed CNN model is used as a classification model that is built from scratch. The experiment was applied on masked faces (MAFA) dataset with images of 160x160 pixels size and RGB color. The model achieved lower computational complexity and number of layers, while being more reliable compared with other algorithms applied to recognize face masks. The findings reveal that the model's validation accuracy reaches 97.55% to 98.43% at different learning rates and different values of features vector in the dense layer, which represents a neural network layer that is connected deeply of the CNN proposed model training. Finally, the suggested model enhances recognition performance parameters such as precision, recall, and area under the curve (AUC). © 2023 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

COVIDX-LwNet: A Lightweight Network Ensemble Model for the Detection of COVID-19 Based on Chest X-ray Images.

Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic coronavirus has put a lot of pressure on health systems around the world. One of the most common ways to detect COVID-19 is to use chest X-ray images, which have the advantage of being cheap and fast. However, in the early days of the COVID-19 outbreak, most studies applied pretrained convolutional neural network (CNN) models, and the features produced by the last convolutional layer were directly passed into the classification head. In this study, the proposed ensemble model consists of three lightweight networks, Xception, MobileNetV2 and NasNetMobile as three original feature extractors, and then three base classifiers are obtained by adding the coordinated attention module, LSTM and a new classification head to the original feature extractors. The classification results from the three base classifiers are then fused by a confidence fusion method. Three publicly available chest X-ray datasets for COVID-19 testing were considered, with ternary (COVID-19, normal and other pneumonia) and quaternary (COVID-19, normal) analyses performed on the first two datasets, bacterial pneumonia and viral pneumonia classification, and achieved high accuracy rates of 95.56% and 91.20%, respectively. The third dataset was used to compare the performance of the model compared to other models and the generalization ability on different datasets. We performed a thorough ablation study on the first dataset to understand the impact of each proposed component. Finally, we also performed visualizations. These saliency maps not only explain key prediction decisions of the model, but also help radiologists locate areas of infection. Through extensive experiments, it was finally found that the results obtained by the proposed method are comparable to the state-of-the-art methods.

Recommender System for the Efficient Treatment of COVID-19 Using a Convolutional Neural Network Model and Image Similarity.

Background: Hospitals face a significant problem meeting patients' medical needs during epidemics, especially when the number of patients increases rapidly, as seen during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. This study designs a treatment recommender system (RS) for the efficient management of human capital and resources such as doctors, medicines, and resources in hospitals. We hypothesize that a deep learning framework, when combined with search paradigms in an image framework, can make the RS very efficient. Methodology: This study uses a Convolutional neural network (CNN) model for the feature extraction of the images and discovers the most similar patients. The input queries patients from the hospital database with similar chest X-ray images. It uses a similarity metric for the similarity computation of the images. Results: This methodology recommends the doctors, medicines, and resources associated with similar patients to a COVID-19 patients being admitted to the hospital. The performance of the proposed RS is verified with five different feature extraction CNN models and four similarity measures. The proposed RS with a ResNet-50 CNN feature extraction model and Maxwell-Boltzmann similarity is found to be a proper framework for treatment recommendation with a mean average precision of more than 0.90 for threshold similarities in the range of 0.7 to 0.9 and an average highest cosine similarity of more than 0.95. Conclusions: Overall, an RS with a CNN model and image similarity is proven as an efficient tool for the proper management of resources during the peak period of pandemics and can be adopted in clinical settings.

Face Authentication from Masked Face Images Using Deep Learning on Periocular Biometrics

Nowadays, identity theft is an alarming issue with the growth of e-commerce and online services. Moreover, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, society has been pushed towards the usage of masks for people to safely interact with one another. It is hard to recognize a person if the face is mostly covered, even more so to artificial intelligence who have more difficulty identifying a masked individual. To further protect personal information and to develop a secure information system, more comprehensive bio-metric approaches are required. The currently used facial recognition systems are using biometrics such as periocular regions, iris, face, skin tone and racial information etc. In this paper, we apply a deep learning-based authentication approach using periocular biometric information to enhance the performance of the facial recognition system. We used the Real-World Masked Face Dataset (RMFD) and other datasets to develop our system. We implemented some experiments using CNN model on the periocular region information of the images. Hence, we developed a system that can recognize a person from only using a small region of face, which in this case is the periocular information including both eyes and eyebrows region. There is only a focus on the periocular region with our model in the view of the fact that the periocular region of the face is the main reliable source of information we can get while a person is wearing a face mask. © 2022, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

IoT Deployable Lightweight Deep Learning Application For COVID-19 Detection With Lung Diseases Using RaspberryPi

Proper assessment of COVID-19 patients has become critical to mitigating and halting the disease's rapid expansion during the present COVID-19 epidemic across the nations. Due to the presence of chronic lung/pulmonary diseases, the intensity and demise rates of COVID-19 patients were increased. This study will analyze radiography utilizing chest X-ray images (CXI), one of the most successful testing methods for COVID-19 case identification. Given that deep learning (DL) is a useful method and technique for image processing, there have been several research on COVID-19 case identification using CXI to train DL models. While few of the study claims outstanding predictive outcomes, their suggested models may struggle with overfitting, excessive variance, and generalization mistakes due to noise, a limited number of datasets and could not be deployed to IoT devices due to heavy network size. Considering deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) can conquer the weaknesses by getting predictions with several diseases using a single model deployed on a real-time IoT device. We propose a lightweight Deep Learning model (LDC-Net) that has spearheaded an open-sourced COVID-19 case identification technique using CNN-generated CXI by utilizing a suggested strategy aware of distinct features learning of different classes. Experimental results on Raspberry Pi show that LDC-Net provides encouraging outputs for detecting COVID-19 cases with an overall 96.86% precision, 96.78% recall, 96.77% F1-score, and 99.28% accuracy, better than other state-of-the-art models. By empowering the Internet of Things-IoT and IoMT devices, this suggested framework can identify COVID-19 from CXI and other seven lung diseases with healthy labels. © 2022 IEEE.

Masked Face Recognition via a Combined SIFT and DLBP Features Trained in CNN Model

The latest global COVID-19 pandemic has made the use of facial masks an important aspect of our lives. People are advised to cover their faces in public spaces to discourage illness from spreading. Using these face masks posed a significant concern about the exactness of the face identification method used to search and unlock telephones at the school/office. Many companies have already built the requisite data in-house to incorporate such a scheme, using face recognition as an authentication. Unfortunately, veiled faces hinder the detection and acknowledgment of these facial identity schemes and seek to invalidate the internal data collection. Biometric systems that use the face as authentication cause problems with detection or recognition (face or persons). In this research, a novel model has been developed to detect and recognize faces and persons for authentication using scale invariant features (SIFT) for the whole segmented face with an efficient local binary texture features (DLBP) in region of eyes in the masked face. The Fuzzy C means is utilized to segment the image. These mixed features are trained significantly in a convolution neural network (CNN) model. The main advantage of this model is that can detect and recognizing faces by assigning weights to the selected features aimed to grant or provoke permissions with high accuracy.

Lightweight Skip Connections With Efficient Feature Stacking for Respiratory Sound Classification

As the number of deaths from respiratory diseases due to COVID-19 and infectious diseases increases, early diagnosis is necessary. In general, the diagnosis of diseases is based on imaging devices (e.g., computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) as well as the patient's underlying disease information. However, these examinations are time-consuming, incur considerable costs, and in a situation like the ongoing pandemic, face-to-face examinations are difficult to conduct. Therefore, we propose a lung disease classification model based on deep learning using non-contact auscultation. In this study, two respiratory specialists collected normal respiratory sounds and five types of abnormal sounds associated with lung disease, including those associated with four lung lesions in the left and right anterior chest and left and right posterior chest. For preprocessing and feature extraction, the noise was removed using three pass filters (low, band, and high), and respiratory sound features were extracted using the Log-Mel Spectrogram-Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient followed by feature stacking. Then, we propose a lung disease classification model of dense lightweight convolutional neural network-bidirectional gated recurrent unit skip connections using depthwise separable convolution based on the extracted respiratory sound information. The performance of the classification model was compared with both the baseline and the lightweight models. The results indicate that the proposed model achieves high performance and has an accuracy of 92.3%, sensitivity of 92.1%, specificity of 98.5%, and f1-score of 91.9%. Using the proposed model, we aim to contribute to the early detection of diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Accuracy, Confusion Matrix and ROC Curves, the result of study shows that for the first dataset used for analysis, Xception and for the second dataset Inception architectures respectively are most suitable for the prediction of COVID-19. © 2021 IEEE.

Diagnosis and Medicine Prediction for COVID-19 Using Machine Learning Approach

The COVID-19 outbreak has thrown the entire world into an unanticipated unpleasant scenario, bringing the lives of people all over the world to a pandemic level and claiming thousands of lives. According to WHO, COVID-19 has spread to 220 nations and territories, with the number of infected cases and deaths reaching 167 million and 3 million (as of May 25, 2021) (WHO dashboard, https://covid19.who.int [1]) and has a serious impact on the public health system. The key hurdles in containing the present COVID-19 outbreak are early detection and diagnosis. As a result, it is critical to screen COVID-19-affected individuals as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will spread quickly. In this case, screening can determine whether or not a patient has COVID-19 pneumonia. One of the most effective methods for reaching this goal is through chest X-ray diagnosis. It is the one that is most easily detected. This study provided a deep learning model of a convolutional neural network solution for detecting COVID-19 pneumonia patients using chest X-ray pictures. We used a publicly accessible chest X-ray dataset from Kaggle (Dataset link, https://www.kaggle.com/tawsifurrahman/covid19-radiography-database [2]) to train the model, which included 10,006 photos with COVID-19 pneumonia and normal images separated into train, test, and validation sets. This proposed model has a classification precision of 96% on the test set and 97% on the validation set, which is rather good for classifying COVID-19 pneumonia and normal patients. Along with this, we add the functionality of suggesting medicine based on symptoms. We build this suggesting model using machine learning model with accuracy 79% of 120 rows of dataset developed by our own to show it is possible to suggest medicine based on symptoms. We have developed an application using the flask framework. This application may be used on any computer by any medical professional to detect COVID positive and negative patients automatically using chest X-ray images in a matter of seconds and recommends some medicine that currently threatens the COVID-19. This application can reduce the number of false positives and false negatives in the detection of COVID-19. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Transfer learning with Resnet-50 for detecting COVID-19 in chest X-ray images

The novel coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, initially appeared in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and has since spread around the world. The purpose of this paper is to use deep convolutional neural networks (DCCN) to improve the detection of COVID-19 from X-ray images. In this study, we create a DCNN based on a residual network (Resnet-50) that can identify COVID-19 from two other classes (pneumonia and normal) in chest X-ray images. DCNN was evaluated using two classification methods: Binary (BC-1: COVID-19 vs. normal, BC-2: COVID-19 vs. pneumonia) and multi-class (pneumonia vs. normal vs. COVID-19). In all experiments, four fold cross-validation was used to train and test the model. This architecture's average accuracy is 99.9% for BC-1, 99.8% for BC-2, and 97.3% for multi-class cases. The experimental findings demonstrated that the suggested system detects COVID-19 with an average precision and sensitivity of 95% and 95.1% for multi-class classification, respectively. According to our findings, the proposed DCNN may help health professionals in confirming their first evaluation of COVID-19 patients. © 2022 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

Deep learning model for virtual screening of novel 3C-like protease enzyme inhibitors against SARS coronavirus diseases.

In the context of the recently emerging COVID-19 pandemic, we developed a deep learning model that can be used to predict the inhibitory activity of 3CLpro in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) for unknown compounds during the virtual screening process. This paper proposes a novel deep learning-based method to implement virtual screening with convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture. The descriptors represent chemical molecules, and these descriptors are input into the CNN framework to train a model and predict active compounds. When compared to other machine learning methods, including random forest, naive Bayes, decision tree, and support vector machine, the proposed CNN model's evaluation of the test set showed an accuracy of 0.86, a sensitivity of 0.45, a specificity of 0.96, a precision of 0.73, a recall of 0.45, an F-measure of 0.55, and a ROC of 0.71. The CNN model screened 17 out of 918 phytochemical compounds; 60 out of 423 from the natural product NCI divset IV; 17,831 out of 112,267 from the ZINC natural product database; and 315 out of 1556 FDA-approved drugs as anti-SARS-CoV agents. Further, to prioritize drug-like compounds, Lipinski's rule of five was applied to screen anti-SARS-CoV compounds (excluding FDA-approved drugs), resulting in 10, 59, and 14,025 hit molecules. Out of 10 phytochemical compounds, 9 anti-SARS-CoV agents belonged to the flavonoid group. In conclusion, the proposed CNN model can prove useful for developing novel target-specific anti-SARS-CoV compounds.
