ABSTRACT

With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution, data-driven decision making has also become an integral part of decision making. At the same time, deep learning is one of the core technologies of the fourth industrial revolution that have become vital in decision making. However, in the era of epidemics and big data, the volume of data has increased dramatically while the sources have become progressively more complex, making data distribution highly susceptible to change. These situations can easily lead to concept drift, which directly affects the effectiveness of prediction models. How to cope with such complex situations and make timely and accurate decisions from multiple perspectives is a challenging research issue. To address this challenge, we summarize concept drift adaptation methods under the deep learning framework, which is beneficial to help decision makers make better decisions and analyze the causes of concept drift. First, we provide an overall introduction to concept drift, including the definition, causes, types, and process of concept drift adaptation methods under the deep learning framework. Second, we summarize concept drift adaptation methods in terms of discriminative learning, generative learning, hybrid learning, and others. For each aspect, we elaborate on the update modes, detection modes, and adaptation drift types of concept drift adaptation methods. In addition, we briefly describe the characteristics and application fields of deep learning algorithms using concept drift adaptation methods. Finally, we summarize common datasets and evaluation metrics and present future directions.

ABSTRACT

The European Centre of Disease Prevention & Control's analytical statistics show that the new corona virus (Covid-19) is rapidly spreading amongst millions of people & causing the deaths of thousands of them. Despite the daily increase in cases, there are still a finite quantity of Covid-19 test kits available. The use of an automatic recognition system is crucial for the diagnosis and control of Covid-19. Three important Inception-ResNetV2, InceptionV3, & ResNet50 models of convolutional neural networks are utilized to detect the Corona Virus in lung X-ray radiography. The ResNet50 version has the best result & accuracy rate of the present system. As compared to the current models, a novel procedures and ensuring on the CNN model delivers better specific, sensitivities, and precision. By using confusion matrix and ROC assessment, fivefold validation data is utilized to analyze the current models and compare them to the proposed system. © 2023 IEEE.

ABSTRACT

Identification of COVID-19 may help the community and patient to prevent the disease containment and plan to attend disease in right time. Deep neural network models widely used to analyze the medical images of COVID-19 for automatic detection and give the decision support for radiologists to summarize the accurate remarks. This paper proposed deep transfer learning for chest CT scan images to detection and diagnosis of COVID-19. VGG19, InceptionRestNetV3, InceptionV3 and DenseNet201 neural network used for automatic detection of COVID-19 disease form CT scan images (SARS-CoV-2 CT scan Dataset). Four deep transfer learning models were developed, tested and compared. The main objective of this paper is to use pre-trained features and converge pre-trained features with targeted features to improve the classification accuracy. It is observed that DenseNet201 noted the best performance and the classification accuracy is 99.98% for 300 epochs. The findings of the experiments show that the deeper networks struggle to train adequately and give less consistency when there is limited data. The DenseNet201 model adopted for COVID-19 identification from lung CT scans has been intensively optimized with optimal hyper parameters and performs at noteworthy levels with precision 99.2%, recall 100%, specificity 99.2%, and F1 score 99.2%.

ABSTRACT

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has an enormous impact on the daily lives and health of people residing in more than 200 nations. This article proposes a deep learning-based system for the rapid diagnosis of COVID-19. Chest x-ray radiograph images were used because recent findings revealed that these images contain salient features about COVID-19 disease. Transfer learning was performed using different pre-trained convolutional neural networks models for binary (normal and COVID-19) and triple (normal, COVID-19 and viral pneumonia) class problems. Deep features were extracted from a fully connected layer of the ResNET50v2 model and feature dimension was reduced through feature reduction methods. Feature fusion of feature sets reduced through analysis of variance (ANOVA) and mutual information feature selection (MIFS) was fed to Fine K-nearest neighbour to perform binary classification. Similarly, serial feature fusion of MIFS and chi-square features were utilized to train Medium Gaussian Support Vector Machines to distinguish normal, COVID-19 and viral pneumonia cases. The proposed framework yielded accuracies of 99.5% for binary and 95.5% for triple class experiments. The proposed model shows better performance than the existing methods, and this research has the potential to assist medical professionals to enhance the diagnostic ability to detect coronavirus disease.

ABSTRACT

The use of online courses is growing worldwide that has opened the door for the interested students to learn comfortably from their locations especially, during Covid-19 pandemic. However, an important aspect of traditional classroom is real-time students' feedback for content delivery and interactive sessions, which is missing in online courses. The aim of this work is to bridge this gap by providing an automatic recognition system for engagement level of the students during online courses using deep transfer learning. In this paper, a CNN based method is proposed to predict the level of engagement while watching online class sessions. The CNN based method consists of two different modalities including: (1) pre-trained network based transfer learning for feature extraction from image data, (2) support vector machine (SVM) classifier for classification. Ten different pre-trained networks are used in the proposed method. The superiority of the method is evaluated on the dataset created using images of graduate students. Of all pre-trained networks, Resnet50 and VGG16 achieved highest classification accuracy of 72.34% and 71.77% using the proposed approach respectively. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

ABSTRACT

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019 and until now, patients overrun hospitals and health care emergency units to check up on their health status. The health care systems were burdened by the increased number of patients and there was a need to speed up the diagnoses process of detecting this disease by using computer algorithms. In this paper, an integrated model based on deep and machine learning for covid-19 x-rays classification will be presented. The integration is built-up open two phases. The first phase is features extraction using deep transfer models such as Alexnet, Resnet18, VGG16, and VGG19. The second phase is the classification using machine learning algorithms such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Trees, and Ensemble algorithm. The dataset selected consists of three classes (COVID-19, Viral pneumonia, and Normal) class and the dataset is available online under the name COVID-19 Radiography database. More than 30 experiments are conducted to select the optimal integration between machine and deep learning models. The integration of VGG19 and SVM achieved the highest accuracy possible with 98.61%. The performance indicators such as Recall, Precision, and F1 Score support this finding. The proposed model consumes less time and resources in the training process if it is compared to deep transfer models. Comparative results are con-ducted at the end of the research, and the proposed model overcomes related works which used the same dataset in terms of testing accuracy. © 2023, Modern Education and Computer Science Press.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The heterogeneity of COVID-19 spread dynamics is determined by complex spatiotemporal transmission patterns at a fine scale, especially in densely populated regions. In this study, we aim to discover such fine-scale transmission patterns via deep learning. METHODS: We introduce the notion of TransCode to characterize fine-scale spatiotemporal transmission patterns of COVID-19 caused by metapopulation mobility and contact behaviors. First, in Hong Kong, China, we construct the mobility trajectories of confirmed cases using their visiting records. Then we estimate the transmissibility of individual cases in different locations based on their temporal infectiousness distribution. Integrating the spatial and temporal information, we represent the TransCode via spatiotemporal transmission networks. Further, we propose a deep transfer learning model to adapt the TransCode of Hong Kong, China to achieve fine-scale transmission characterization and risk prediction in six densely populated metropolises: New York City, San Francisco, Toronto, London, Berlin, and Tokyo, where fine-scale data are limited. All the data used in this study are publicly available. RESULTS: The TransCode of Hong Kong, China derived from the spatial transmission information and temporal infectiousness distribution of individual cases reveals the transmission patterns (e.g., the imported and exported transmission intensities) at the district and constituency levels during different COVID-19 outbreaks waves. By adapting the TransCode of Hong Kong, China to other data-limited densely populated metropolises, the proposed method outperforms other representative methods by more than 10% in terms of the prediction accuracy of the disease dynamics (i.e., the trend of case numbers), and the fine-scale spatiotemporal transmission patterns in these metropolises could also be well captured due to some shared intrinsically common patterns of human mobility and contact behaviors at the metapopulation level. CONCLUSIONS: The fine-scale transmission patterns due to the metapopulation level mobility (e.g., travel across different districts) and contact behaviors (e.g., gathering in social-economic centers) are one of the main contributors to the rapid spread of the virus. Characterization of the fine-scale transmission patterns using the TransCode will facilitate the development of tailor-made intervention strategies to effectively contain disease transmission in the targeted regions.

ABSTRACT

Due to the augmented rise of COVID-19, clinical specialists are looking for fast faultless diagnosis strategies to restrict Covid spread while attempting to lessen the computational complexity. In this way, swift diagnosis techniques for COVID-19 with high precision can offer valuable aid to clinical specialists. RT- PCR test is an expensive and tedious COVID diagnosis technique in practice. Medical imaging is feasible to diagnose COVID-19 by X-ray chest radiography to get around the shortcomings of RT-PCR. Through a variety of Deep Transfer-learning models, this research investigates the potential of Artificial Intelligence -based early diagnosis of COVID-19 via X-ray chest radiographs. With 10,192 normal and 3616 Covid X-ray chest radiographs, the deep transfer-learning models are optimized to further the accurate diagnosis. The x-ray chest radiographs undergo a data augmentation phase before developing a modified dataset to train the Deep Transfer-learning models. The Deep Transfer-learning architectures are trained using the extracted features from the Feature Extraction stage. During training, the classification of X-ray Chest radiographs based on feature extraction algorithm values is converted into a feature label set containing the classified image data with a feature string value representing the number of edges detected after edge detection. The feature label set is further tested with the SVM, KNN, NN, Naive Bayes and Logistic Regression classifiers to audit the quality metrics of the proposed model. The quality metrics include accuracy, precision, F1 score, recall and AUC. The Inception-V3 dominates the six Deep Transfer-learning models, according to the assessment results, with a training accuracy of 84.79% and a loss function of 2.4%. The performance of Cubic SVM was superior to that of the other SVM classifiers, with an AUC score of 0.99, precision of 0.983, recall of 0.8977, accuracy of 95.8%, and F1 score of 0.9384. Cosine KNN fared better than the other KNN classifiers with an AUC score of 0.95, precision of 0.974, recall of 0.777, accuracy of 90.8%, and F1 score of 0.864. Wide NN fared better than the other NN classifiers with an AUC score of 0.98, precision of 0.975, recall of 0.907, accuracy of 95.5%, and F1 score of 0.939. According to the findings, SVM classifiers topped other classifiers in terms of performance indicators like accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC. The SVM classifiers reported better mean optimal scores compared to other classifiers. The performance assessment metrics uncover that the proposed methodology can aid in preliminary COVID diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Currently, COVID-19 is circulating in crowded places as an infectious disease. COVID-19 can be prevented from spreading rapidly in crowded areas by implementing multiple strategies. The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as sensing devices can be useful in detecting overcrowding events. Accordingly, in this article, we introduce a real-time system for identifying overcrowding due to events such as congestion and abnormal behavior. For the first time, a monitoring approach is proposed to detect overcrowding through the UAV and social monitoring system (SMS). We have significantly improved identification by selecting the best features from the water cycle algorithm (WCA) and making decisions based on deep transfer learning. According to the analysis of the UAV videos, the average accuracy is estimated at 96.55%. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach is capable of detecting overcrowding based on UAV videos' frames and SMS's communication even in challenging conditions. © 2005-2012 IEEE.

ABSTRACT

Humankind is facing another deadliest pandemic of all times in history, caused by COVID-19. Apart from this challenging pandemic, World Health Organization (WHO) considers tuberculosis (TB) as a preeminent infectious disease due to its high infection rate. Generally, both TB and COVID-19 severely affect the lungs, thus hardening the job of medical practitioners who can often misidentify these diseases in the current situation. Therefore, the time of need calls for an immediate and meticulous automatic diagnostic tool that can accurately discriminate both diseases. As one of the preliminary smart health systems that examine three clinical states (COVID-19, TB, and normal cases), this study proposes an amalgam of image filtering, data-augmentation technique, transfer learning-based approach, and advanced deep-learning classifiers to effectively segregate these diseases. It first employed a generative adversarial network (GAN) and Crimmins speckle removal filter on X-ray images to overcome the issue of limited data and noise. Each pre-processed image is then converted into red, green, and blue (RGB) and Commission Internationale de l'Elcairage (CIE) color spaces from which deep fused features are formed by extracting relevant features using DenseNet121 and ResNet50. Each feature extractor extracts 1000 most useful features which are then fused and finally fed to two variants of recurrent neural network (RNN) classifiers for precise discrimination of three-clinical states. Comparative analysis showed that the proposed Bi-directional long-short-term-memory (Bi-LSTM) model dominated the long-short-term-memory (LSTM) network by attaining an overall accuracy of 98.22% for the three-class classification task, whereas LSTM hardly achieved 94.22% accuracy on the test dataset. © 2023 Tech Science Press.

ABSTRACT

Combating the COVID-19 epidemic has emerged as one of the most promising healthcare the world's challenges have ever seen. COVID-19 cases must be accurately and quickly diagnosed to receive proper medical treatment and limit the pandemic. Imaging approaches for chest radiography have been proven in order to be more successful in detecting coronavirus than the (RT-PCR) approach. Transfer knowledge is more suited to categorize patterns in medical pictures since the number of available medical images is limited. This paper illustrates a convolutional neural network (CNN) and recurrent neural network (RNN) hybrid architecture for the diagnosis of COVID-19 from chest X-rays. The deep transfer methods used were VGG19, DenseNet121, InceptionV3, and Inception-ResNetV2. RNN was used to classify data after extracting complicated characteristics from them using CNN. The VGG19-RNN design had the greatest accuracy of all of the networks with 97.8% accuracy. Gradient-weighted the class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) method was then used to show the decision-making areas of pictures that are distinctive to each class. In comparison to other current systems, the system produced promising findings, and it may be confirmed as additional samples become available in the future. For medical personnel, the examination revealed an excellent alternative way of diagnosing COVID-19. © 2023 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved.

ABSTRACT

COVID-19 is a virus that causes upper respiratory tract and lung infections. The number of cases and deaths increased daily during the pandemic. Once it is vital to diagnose such a disease in a timely manner, the researchers have focused on computer-aided diagnosis systems. Chest X-rays have helped monitor various lung diseases consisting COVID-19. In this study, we proposed a deep transfer learning approach with novel fine-tuning mechanisms to classify COVID-19 from chest X-ray images. We presented one classical and two new fine-tuning mechanisms to increase the model's performance. Two publicly available databases were combined and used for the study, which included 3616 COVID-19 and 1576 normal (healthy) and 4265 pneumonia X-ray images. The models achieved average accuracy rates of 95.62%, 96.10%, and 97.61%, respectively, for 3-class cases with fivefold cross-validation. Numerical results show that the third model reduced 81.92% of the total fine-tuning operations and achieved better results. The proposed approach is quite efficient compared with other state-of-the-art methods of detecting COVID-19.

ABSTRACT

The efforts to inoculate majority of the population have been slower than expected and this is especially true for lower income countries. This problem has caused a lot of worries and further accentuates the importance of timely and effective mass testing considering the emergence of newer variants. The RT-PCR is still the gold standard diagnostic test for COVID-19 detection, but its limitations has led researchers and scientists to explore supplementary screening methods. One effective tool to consider is Chest X-Ray (CXR) imaging and combining it with deep learning has piqued attention from the artificial intelligence (AI) community. To further contribute to this research area, this work focuses on creating, evaluating, and comparing lightweight and mobile-phone-suitable COVID-detecting models. These transfer learning models together with their corresponding dynamic-range quantized versions are first tested according to their classification performance. Afterwards, the models are pushed in a low-tier phone to measure their resource consumption and inference timings. Results show that the utilization of EfficientNetB0 and MobileNetV3 (Small & Large) architectures for transfer learning without any quantization can produce at least 91 % overall average accuracy for 3-class classification scheme. For systems requiring more efficient models, using the quantized versions of the transfer learning models particularly with EfficientNetB0 and MobileNetV3Large as foundation can render at most 0.79 % accuracy loss but still show more than 95% f1-scores for the COVID-19 class. © 2022 IEEE.

ABSTRACT

The COVID-19 coronavirus is one of the devastating viruses according to the world health organization. This novel virus leads to pneumonia, which is an infection that inflames the lungs’ air sacs of a human. One of the methods to detect those inflames is by using x-rays for the chest. In this paper, a pneumonia chest x-ray detection based on generative adversarial networks (GAN) with a fine-tuned deep transfer learning for a limited dataset will be presented. The use of GAN positively affects the proposed model robustness and made it immune to the overfitting problem and helps in generating more images from the dataset. The dataset used in this research consists of 5863 X-ray images with two categories: Normal and Pneumonia. This research uses only 10% of the dataset for training data and generates 90% of images using GAN to prove the efficiency of the proposed model. Through the paper, AlexNet, GoogLeNet, Squeeznet, and Resnet18 are selected as deep transfer learning models to detect the pneumonia from chest x-rays. Those models are selected based on their small number of layers on their architectures, which will reflect in reducing the complexity of the models and the consumed memory and time. Using a combination of GAN and deep transfer models proved it is efficiency according to testing accuracy measurement. The research concludes that the Resnet18 is the most appropriate deep transfer model according to testing accuracy measurement and achieved 99% with the other performance metrics such as precision, recall, and F1 score while using GAN as an image augmenter. Finally, a comparison result was carried out at the end of the research with related work which used the same dataset except that this research used only 10% of original dataset. The presented work achieved a superior result than the related work in terms of testing accuracy. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

ABSTRACT

A continuing outbreak of pneumonia-related disease novel, Coronavirus has been recorded worldwide and has become a global health problem. This research aims to generate a constructive training data set for a neural network to detect COVID-19 from X-ray images. The creation of medical images is an issue in the field of deep learning. Medical image datasets are frequently unbalanced; using such datasets to train a deep neural network model to correctly classify medical conditions typically leads to over-fitting the data on majority class samples. Data augmentation is commonly used in training data to expand the dataset. Data augmentation may not be beneficial in medical domains with limited data. This paper proposed a data generation model using a Deep Convolutional Generative adversarial network (DCGAN), which generates fake instances with comparable properties to the original data. The model's Fréchet Distance of Inception (FID) was 23.78, close to the original data. Deep transfer learning-based models VGG-16, Inceptionv3 and MobilNet, were chosen as the backbone for COVID-19 detection. The present study aims to increase the dataset using the DCGAN data augmentation technique to improve classifier performance.

ABSTRACT

There is a huge the spread of Covid-19 pandemic (Corona) in large areas of the country, including modern and rural areas, and due to the scarcity of medical tools and supplies, especially in rural areas. Therefore, artificial intelligence researchers are using technologies to help detect disease early by using chest X-rays to classify whether or not the disease is present. Note that doctors have agreed in more than one scientific article that the initial examination to detect this disease is carried out through chest x-rays, the devices of which are available in most places.Because the Internet is available in most rural areas and in order to reduce the spread of this pandemic, in this paper we built a project by deep transfer learning using an application in Keras called "InceptionV3" on cloud, this model trained and tested 10 thousand images of people with the disease and others where the data distribution was equal to avoid From imbalanced data, and this model will be used across the cloud by web framework so that we can get proactive decisions and avoid spread. This model has been applied in the Department of Respiratory Medicine at Dr. ShankarraoChavan Government Hospital, Nanded, under the supervision of a medical staff headed by Dr. V. R. Kapse, associate professor and head of the department of pulmonary, we have obtained results after training and evaluating the model are training accuracy 97.6%, testing accuracy 97.5%, precision 97.8%, sensitivity 100% and specificity 99.9%.
