GIT-Net: An Ensemble Deep Learning-Based GI Tract Classification of Endoscopic Images.

This paper presents an ensemble of pre-trained models for the accurate classification of endoscopic images associated with Gastrointestinal (GI) diseases and illnesses. In this paper, we propose a weighted average ensemble model called GIT-NET to classify GI-tract diseases. We evaluated the model on a KVASIR v2 dataset with eight classes. When individual models are used for classification, they are often prone to misclassification since they may not be able to learn the characteristics of all the classes adequately. This is due to the fact that each model may learn the characteristics of specific classes more efficiently than the other classes. We propose an ensemble model that leverages the predictions of three pre-trained models, DenseNet201, InceptionV3, and ResNet50 with accuracies of 94.54%, 88.38%, and 90.58%, respectively. The predictions of the base learners are combined using two methods: model averaging and weighted averaging. The performances of the models are evaluated, and the model averaging ensemble has an accuracy of 92.96% whereas the weighted average ensemble has an accuracy of 95.00%. The weighted average ensemble outperforms the model average ensemble and all individual models. The results from the evaluation demonstrate that utilizing an ensemble of base learners can successfully classify features that were incorrectly learned by individual base learners.

Analysis of DNA Sequence Classification Using CNN and Hybrid Models.

In a general computational context for biomedical data analysis, DNA sequence classification is a crucial challenge. Several machine learning techniques have used to complete this task in recent years successfully. Identification and classification of viruses are essential to avoid an outbreak like COVID-19. Regardless, the feature selection process remains the most challenging aspect of the issue. The most commonly used representations worsen the case of high dimensionality, and sequences lack explicit features. It also helps in detecting the effect of viruses and drug design. In recent days, deep learning (DL) models can automatically extract the features from the input. In this work, we employed CNN, CNN-LSTM, and CNN-Bidirectional LSTM architectures using Label and K-mer encoding for DNA sequence classification. The models are evaluated on different classification metrics. From the experimental results, the CNN and CNN-Bidirectional LSTM with K-mer encoding offers high accuracy with 93.16% and 93.13%, respectively, on testing data.
