Diagnosis of COVID-19 from blood parameters using convolutional neural network.

Asymptomatically presenting COVID-19 complicates the detection of infected individuals. Additionally, the virus changes too many genomic variants, which increases the virus's ability to spread. Because there isn't a specific treatment for COVID-19 in a short time, the essential goal is to reduce the virulence of the disease. Blood parameters, which contain essential clinical information about infectious diseases and are easy to access, have an important place in COVID-19 detection. The convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture, which is popular in image processing, produces highly successful results for COVID-19 detection models. When the literature is examined, it is seen that COVID-19 studies with CNN are generally done using lung images. In this study, one-dimensional (1D) blood parameters data were converted into two-dimensional (2D) image data after preprocessing, and COVID-19 detection was made with CNN. The t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding method was applied to transfer the feature vectors to the 2D plane. All data were framed with convex hull and minimum bounding rectangle algorithms to obtain image data. The image data obtained by pixel mapping was presented to the developed 3-line CNN architecture. This study proposes an effective and successful model by providing a combination of low-cost and rapidly-accessible blood parameters and CNN architecture making image data processing highly successful for COVID-19 detection. Ultimately, COVID-19 detection was made with a success rate of 94.85%. This study has brought a new perspective to COVID-19 detection studies by obtaining 2D image data from 1D COVID-19 blood parameters and using CNN.

Automated Face Mask Detection using Artificial Intelligence and Video Surveillance Management

Surveillance camera has become an essential, ubiquitous technology in people's daily lives, whether applicable for home surveillance or extended to public workplace detection. The importance of the camera is irreplaceable in terms of the agent for an enclosed system to function correctly. The goal of ubiquitous computing is to keep different devices or technology communicating seamlessly, allowing them to expand to other areas instead of limiting it to one device. However, many research papers have been released on how the camera can aid in the current situation where COVID-19 is still raging worldwide, especially in crowded places. This paper aims to suggest a method by which surveillance cameras on the university campus can automatically detect student face mask status and notify them. Alongside that, this concept of applying a video management system within the university campus will assist in the automation of invigilating the student's daily mask status from the number of embedded surveillance cameras around the campus. © 2023 IEEE.

Application Of Neural Network For The Detection Of Covid-19 Or Viral Pneumonia

A bacterial infection in the lungs can cause viral pneumonia, a disease. Later the middle of December 2019, there have been multiple episodes of pneumonia in Wuhan City, China, with no known cause;it has since been discovered that this pneumonia is actually a new respiratory condition brought on by coronavirus infection. Humans who have lung abnormalities are more likely to develop high-risk conditions;this risk can be decreased with much quicker and more effective therapy. The symptoms of Covid-19 pneumonia are similar to those of viral pneumonia;they are not distinctive. X-ray or Computed Tomography (CT) scan images are used to identify lung abnormalities. Even for a skilled radiologist, it might be challenging to identify Covid-19/Viral pneumonia by looking at the X-ray images. For prompt and effective treatment, accurate diagnosis is essential. In this epidemic condition, delayed diagnosis can cause the number of cases to double, hence a suitable tool is required is necessary for the early identification of Covid-19. This paper highlights various AI techniques as a part of our contribution to swift identification and curie Covid-19 to front-line corona. The safety of Covid-19 people who have viral pneumonia is a concern. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), two AI technologies from Deep Learning (DL), were utilized to identify Covid-19/Viral pneumonia. The Algorithm is taught utilizing non-public local hospitals or Covid-19 wards, as well as X-ray images of healthy lungs, fake lungs from viral pneumonia, and ostentatious lungs from Covid-19 that are all publicly available. The model is also validated over a lengthy period of time using the transfer learning technique. The results correspond with clinically tested positive Covid-19 patients who underwent Swap testing conducted by medical professionals, giving us an accuracy of 78 to 82 percent. We discovered that each DL model has a unique expertise after testing the various models.

We have made use of weights to test and analyse the accuracy, visualize and predict the condition of a lung using chest X-Rays at certain accuracy. This will help in identifying the problems of the patients at a faster rate, thus giving an appropriate treatment at an early stage itself to saving one life. © 2023 IEEE.

Covid-19 or Viral Pneumonia Detection Using AI Tools

Viral pneumonia is a disease which occurs in lungs due to bacterial infection. Since middle of December 2019, many cases of pneumonia with unknown cause were found in Wuhan City, China;at present, it has been confirmed that it is a new respiratory disorder caused due to coronavirus infection. Lungs abnormality is highly risky condition in humans;the reduction of the risk is done by enabling quick and efficient treatment. The Covid-19 pneumonia is mimicking viral pneumonia, that is, their symptoms are undistinguished. Lung's abnormality is detected by Computed Tomography (CT) scan images or X-ray images. By viewing the X-rays or CT scan images, even for a well-trained radiologist, it is difficult to detect Covid-19/viral pneumonia. For quick and efficient treatment, it is necessary that proper detection must take place and during this epidemic situation, late detection can lead to doubling of cases;hence, there is a need of proper tool for quick detection of Covid-19/viral pneumonia. This chapter is discussing various AI tools for quick detection as a part of our contribution for quick detection and cure of Covid-19 to front line corona worriers and safety of viral pneumonia patients from Covid-19. The two AI tools are from deep learning (DL), that is, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), which are used for the detection of Covid-19/viral pneumonia. The algorithm is trained using available X-ray images of health lungs, viral pneumonia-affected lungs, and Covid-19-affected lungs available through Kaggle and nondisclosed local hospitals or Covid-19 wards. Also transfer learning method is also used for long-lasting validation of the model. The results give us an accuracy for CNN 83.2 to 94.1% results which are also matched with practically tested positive Covid-19 patients using swab tests by doctors. After testing the various models, we also came through that every model of DL has its own specialty. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

Novel Cuckoo Search-Based Metaheuristic Approach for Deep Learning Prediction of Depression

Depression is a common illness worldwide with doubtless severe implications. Due to the absence of early identification and treatment for depression, millions of individuals worldwide suffer from mental illnesses. It might be difficult to identify those who are experiencing mental health illnesses and to provide them with the early help that they need. Additionally, depression may be associated with thoughts of suicide. Currently, there are no clinically specific diagnostic biomarkers that can identify the severity and type of depression. In this research paper, the novel particle swarm-cuckoo search (PS-CS) optimization algorithm is proposed instead of the traditional backpropagation algorithm for training deep neural networks. The backpropagation algorithm is widely used for supervised learning in deep neural networks, but it has limitations in terms of convergence speed and the possibility of getting trapped in local optima. These problems were addressed by using a deep neural network architecture for depression detection tasks along with the PS-CS optimization technique. The PS-CS algorithm combines the strengths of both particle swarm optimization and cuckoo search algorithms, which allows for a more efficient and effective optimization of the network parameters. We also evaluated how well the suggested methods performed against the most widely used classification models, including (K-nearest neighbor) KNN, (support vector regression) SVR, and decision trees, as well as the most widely used deep learning models, including residual neural network (ResNet), visual geometry group (VGG), and simple neural network (LeNet). The findings show that the suggested method, PS-CS, in conjunction with the CNN model, outperformed all other models, achieving the maximum accuracy of 99.5%. Other models, such as the KNN, decision trees, and logistic regression, achieved lower accuracies ranging from 69% to 97%.

The proposed customized convolutional neural network model may help researchers and medical professionals to create a full-fledged computer-based Sars-Cov-2 virus detection system in the near future. © 2023 IEEE.

Automated Covid-19 Disease Identification on Chest-Ct Images Using Cnn and Vgg16

The human respiratory system is most affected by COVID-19, a coronavirus illness that has been identified. Infectious disease COVID-19 was brought on by a virus that emerged in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The key problem for healthcare professionals is early diagnosis. Medical organizations were confused in the early stages because there were no suitable medical tools or medications to detect COVID-19. Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction, a novel diagnostic technique, was released. The COVID-19 virus congregates in the patient's nose or throat, thus swab samples from those areas are collected. There are various accuracy and testing time restrictions with this method. Medical professionals advise using a different method called CT (Computerized Tomography), which can rapidly identify the infected lung regions and detect COVID-19 at an earlier stage. With the help of chest CT images, computer scientists created a number of deep learning models to recognize the COVID-19 condition. In this paper, a model for automatic COVID-19 recognition on chest CT images is presented that is based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and VGG16. A public dataset of 14320 CT scans was used in the experiment, and the findings revealed classification accuracy for CNN and VGG16 of 96.34% and 96.99%, respectively.Copyright © 2022, Anka Publishers.

Convolutional Neural Network Based Feature Hybridization For Ct Scan Images: Covid-19 Detection Perspective

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Early diagnosis is only the proactive process to resist against the unwanted death. However, machine vision-based diagnosis systems show unparalleled success with higher accuracy and low false diagnosis rate. Working with the proposed method, this research has found that Computed Tomography (CT) provides more satisfactory outcomes regarding all the performance metrics. The proposed method uses a feature hybridization technique of concatenating the textural features with neural features. The literature review suggests that medical experts recommended chest CT in covid diagnosis rather than chest X-ray as well as RT-PCR. It is found that chest CT is more effective in diagnosis for being low false-negative rate. Moreover, the proposed method has used segmentation technique to dig the potential region of interest and obtain accurate features. Compared with different CNN classifier, such as, VGG-16, AlexNet, VGG-19 or ResNet50 and scratch model also. To obtain the satisfactory performance VGG-19 was used in this study. The Proposed machine learning based fusion technique achieves superior performance according to COVID-19 positive or negative with the accuracy of 98.63%, specificity of 99.08% and sensitivity of 98.18%. © 2022 IEEE.

Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based deep learning techniques have recently demonstrated increased potential and effectiveness in image recognition applications, such as those involving medical images. Deep-learning models can recognize targets with performance comparable to radiologists when used with CXR. The primary goal of this research is to examine a deep learning technique used on the radiography dataset to detect COVID-19 in X-ray medical images. The proposed system consists of several stages, from pre-processing, passing through the feature reduction using more than one technique, to the classification stage based on a proposed model.

Fast Hybrid Deep Neural Network for Diagnosis of COVID-19 using Chest X-Ray Images

In the last three years, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic put healthcare systems worldwide under tremendous pressure. Imaging techniques, such as Chest X-Ray (CXR) images, play an essential role in diagnosing many diseases (for example, COVID-19). Recently, intelligent systems (Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL)) have been widely utilized to identify COVID-19 from other upper respiratory diseases (such as viral pneumonia and lung opacity). Nevertheless, identifying COVID-19 from the CXR images is challenging due to similar symptoms. To improve the diagnosis of COVID-19 using CXR images, this article proposes a new deep neural network model called Fast Hybrid Deep Neural Network (FHDNN). FHDNN consists of various convolutional layers and various dense layers. In the beginning, we preprocessed the dataset, extracted the best features, and expanded it. Then, we converted it from two dimensions to one dimension to reduce training speed and hardware requirements. The experimental results demonstrate that preprocessing and feature expansion before applying FHDNN lead to better detection accuracy and reduced speedy execution. Furthermore, the model FHDNN outperformed the counterparts by achieving an accuracy of 99.9%, recall of 99.9%, F1-Score has 99.9%, and precision of 99.9% for the detection and classification of COVID-19. Accordingly, FHDNN is more reliable and can be considered a robust and faster model in COVID-19 detection. © 2023,International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications.

Masked Face Detection and Recognition System Based on Deep Learning Algorithms

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and its several variants have developed new habits in our daily lives. For instance, people have begun covering their faces in public areas and tight quarters to restrict the spread of the disease. However, the usage of face masks has hampered the ability of facial recognition systems to determine people's identities for registration authentication and dependability purpose. This study proposes a new deep-learning-based system for detecting and recognizing masked faces and determining the identity and whether the face is properly masked or not using several face image datasets. The proposed system was trained using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with cross-validation and early stopping. First, a binary classification model was trained to discriminate between masked and unmasked faces, with the top model achieving a 99.77% accuracy. Then, a multi-class model was trained to classify the masked face images into three labels, i.e., correctly, incorrectly, and non-masked faces. The proposed model has achieved a high accuracy of 99.5%. Finally, the system recognizes the person's identity with an average accuracy of 97.98%. The visual assessment has proved that the proposed system succeeds in locating and matching faces. © 2023 by the authors.

Different Deep Learning Based Classification Models for COVID-19 CT-Scans and Lesion Segmentation Through the cGAN-UNet Hybrid Method

The new coronavirus, which emerged in early 2020, caused a major global health crisis in 7 continents. An essential step towards fighting this virus is computed tomography (CT) scans. CT scans are an effective radiological method to detecting the diagnosis in early stage, but have greatly increased the workload of radiologists. For this reason, there are systems needed that will reduce the duration of CT examinations and assist radiologists. In this study, a two-stage system has been proposed for COVID-19 detection. First, a hybrid method is proposed that can segment the infected region from CT images. The reason for this is that there is not always a reference image in the datasets used in the classification. For this purpose;UNet, UNet++, SegNet and PsPNet were used both separately and as hybrids with GAN, to automatically segment infected areas from chest CT slices. According to the segmentation results, cGAN-UNet hybrid system was selected as the most successful method. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves a segmentation success with a dice score of 92.32% and IoU score of 86.41%. In the second stage, three classifiers which include a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a PatchCNN and a Capsule Neural Network (CapsNet) were used to classify the generated masks as either COVID-19 or not, using the segmented images obtained from cGAN-UNet. Success of these classifiers was 99.20%, 92.55% and 73.84%, respectively. According to these results, the highest success was achieved in the system where cGAN-Unet and CNN are used together. © 2023 Lavoisier. All rights reserved.
