A modified generative adversarial networks with Yolov5 for automated forest health diagnosis from aerial imagery and Tabu search algorithm.

Our environment has been significantly impacted by climate change. According to previous research, insect catastrophes induced by global climate change killed many trees, inevitably contributing to forest fires. The condition of the forest is an essential indicator of forest fires. Analysis of aerial images of a forest can detect deceased and living trees at an early stage. Automated forest health diagnostics are crucial for monitoring and preserving forest ecosystem health. Combining Modified Generative Adversarial Networks (MGANs) and YOLOv5 (You Only Look Once version 5) is presented in this paper as a novel method for assessing forest health using aerial images. We also employ the Tabu Search Algorithm (TSA) to enhance the process of identifying and categorizing unhealthy forest areas. The proposed model provides synthetic data to supplement the limited labeled dataset, thereby resolving the frequent issue of data scarcity in forest health diagnosis tasks. This improvement enhances the model's ability to generalize to previously unobserved data, thereby increasing the overall precision and robustness of the forest health evaluation. In addition, YOLOv5 integration enables real-time object identification, enabling the model to recognize and pinpoint numerous tree species and potential health issues with exceptional speed and accuracy. The efficient architecture of YOLOv5 enables it to be deployed on devices with limited resources, enabling forest-monitoring applications on-site. We use the TSA to enhance the identification of unhealthy forest areas. The TSA method effectively investigates the search space, ensuring the model converges to a near-optimal solution, improving disease detection precision and decreasing false positives. We evaluated our MGAN-YOLOv5 method using a large dataset of aerial images of diverse forest habitats. The experimental results demonstrated impressive performance in diagnosing forest health automatically, achieving a detection precision of 98.66%, recall of 99.99%, F1 score of 97.77%, accuracy of 99.99%, response time of 3.543 ms and computational time of 5.987 ms. Significantly, our method outperforms all the compared target detection methods showcasing a minimum improvement of 2% in mAP.

Design and Development of IoT and Deep Ensemble Learning Based Model for Disease Monitoring and Prediction.

With the rapidly increasing reliance on advances in IoT, we persist towards pushing technology to new heights. From ordering food online to gene editing-based personalized healthcare, disruptive technologies like ML and AI continue to grow beyond our wildest dreams. Early detection and treatment through AI-assisted diagnostic models have outperformed human intelligence. In many cases, these tools can act upon the structured data containing probable symptoms, offer medication schedules based on the appropriate code related to diagnosis conventions, and predict adverse drug effects, if any, in accordance with medications. Utilizing AI and IoT in healthcare has facilitated innumerable benefits like minimizing cost, reducing hospital-obtained infections, decreasing mortality and morbidity etc. DL algorithms have opened up several frontiers by contributing towards healthcare opportunities through their ability to understand and learn from different levels of demonstration and generalization, which is significant in data analysis and interpretation. In contrast to ML which relies more on structured, labeled data and domain expertise to facilitate feature extractions, DL employs human-like cognitive abilities to extract hidden relationships and patterns from uncategorized data. Through the efficient application of DL techniques on the medical dataset, precise prediction, and classification of infectious/rare diseases, avoiding surgeries that can be preventable, minimization of over-dosage of harmful contrast agents for scans and biopsies can be reduced to a greater extent in future. Our study is focused on deploying ensemble deep learning algorithms and IoT devices to design and develop a diagnostic model that can effectively analyze medical Big Data and diagnose diseases by identifying abnormalities in early stages through medical images provided as input. This AI-assisted diagnostic model based on Ensemble Deep learning aims to be a valuable tool for healthcare systems and patients through its ability to diagnose diseases in the initial stages and present valuable insights to facilitate personalized treatment by aggregating the prediction of each base model and generating a final prediction.
