ABSTRACT
Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a problem worldwide, and prevention is crucial. The image segmentation analysis of DFU identification plays a significant role. This will produce different segmentation of the same idea, incomplete, imprecise, and other problems. To address these issues, a method of image segmentation analysis of DFU through internet of things with the technique of virtual sensing for semantically similar objects, the analysis of four levels of range segmentation (region-based, edge-based, image-based, and computer-aided design-based range segmentation) for deeper segmentation of images is implemented. In this study, the multimodal is compressed with the object co-segmentation for semantical segmentation. The result is predicting the better validity and reliability assessment. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model can efficiently perform segmentation analysis, with a lower error rate, than the existing methodologies. The findings on the multiple-image dataset show that DFU obtains an average segmentation score of 90.85% and 89.03% correspondingly in two types of labeled ratios before DFU with virtual sensing and after DFU without virtual sensing (i.e., 25% and 30%), which is an increase of 10.91% and 12.22% over the previous best results. In live DFU studies, our proposed system improved by 59.1% compared with existing deep segmentation-based techniques and its average image smart segmentation improvements over its contemporaries are 15.06%, 23.94%, and 45.41%, respectively. Proposed range-based segmentation achieves interobserver reliability by 73.9% on the positive test namely likelihood ratio test set with only a 0.25 million parameters at the pace of labeled data.
