Around the world, brain tumors are becoming the leading cause of mortality. The inability to undertake a timely tumor diagnosis is the primary cause of this pandemic. Brain cancer diagnosis is a crucial procedure that relies on the expertise and experience of the doctor. Radiologists must use an automated tumor classification model to find brain cancers. The current model’s accuracy has to be improved to get suitable therapies. Radiologists can consult various computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) models in the literature on medical imaging to assist them with their patients. Previous research has widely used CNN models for tumor detection and classification, which typically require large datasets. This research proposed the Caps-VGGNet hybrid model, which integrates the CapsNet model with the VGGNet model by adding the layers of VGGNet. The presented model addresses the challenge of requiring large datasets by automatically extracting and classifying features. The suggested algorithm’s effectiveness was assessed using the Brats-2020 and Brats-2019 dataset, which contains high-quality images of brain tumors. Compared to other conventional and hybrid models, the empirical outcomes of the suggested model indicate that it exhibited the highest level of effectiveness and superior efficacy in terms of accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity. Specifically, the presented hybrid model attained an accuracy of 0.99, a specificity of 0.99, and a sensitivity of 0.98 on the Brats20 dataset.

Alzheimer’s disease is an incurable neurological disorder that leads to a gradual decline in cognitive abilities, but early detection can significantly mitigate symptoms. The automatic diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease is more important due to the shortage of expert medical staff, because it reduces the burden on medical staff and enhances the results of diagnosis. A detailed analysis of specific brain disorder tissues is required to accurately diagnose the disease via segmented magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Several studies have used the traditional machine-learning approaches to diagnose the disease from MRI, but manual extracted features are more complex, time-consuming, and require a huge amount of involvement from expert medical staff. The traditional approach does not provide an accurate diagnosis. Deep learning has automatic extraction features and optimizes the training process. The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Alzheimer’s disease dataset consists of four classes: mild demented (896 images), moderate demented (64 images), non-demented (3200 images), and very mild demented (2240 images). The dataset is highly imbalanced. Therefore, we used the adaptive synthetic oversampling technique to address this issue. After applying this technique, the dataset was balanced. The ensemble of VGG16 and EfficientNet was used to detect Alzheimer’s disease on both imbalanced and balanced datasets to validate the performance of the models. The proposed method combined the predictions of multiple models to make an ensemble model that learned complex and nuanced patterns from the data. The input and output of both models were concatenated to make an ensemble model and then added to other layers to make a more robust model. In this study, we proposed an ensemble of EfficientNet-B2 and VGG-16 to diagnose the disease at an early stage with the highest accuracy. Experiments were performed on two publicly available datasets. The experimental results showed that the proposed method achieved 97.35% accuracy and 99.64% AUC for multiclass datasets and 97.09% accuracy and 99.59% AUC for binary-class datasets. We evaluated that the proposed method was extremely efficient and provided superior performance on both datasets as compared to previous methods.

Parkinson’s disease is the second-most common cause of death and disability as well as the most prevalent neurological disorder. In the last 15 years, the number of cases of PD has doubled. The accurate detection of PD in the early stages is one of the most challenging tasks to ensure individuals can continue to live with as little interference as possible. Yet there are not enough trained neurologists around the world to detect Parkinson’s disease in its early stages. Machine learning methods based on Artificial intelligence have acquired a lot of popularity over the past few decades in medical disease detection. However, these methods do not provide an accurate and timely diagnosis. The overall detection accuracy of machine learning-related models is inadequate. This study collected data from 31 male and female patients, including 195 voices. Approximately six recordings were created per patient, with the length of each recording extending from 1 to 36 s. These voices were recorded in a soundproof studio using an Industrial Acoustics Company (IAC) AKG-C420 head-mounted microphone. The data set was collected to investigate the diagnostic significance of speech and voice abnormalities caused by Parkinson’s disease. An imbalanced dataset is the main contributor of model overfitting and generalization errors, and hence one class has the majority of samples and the other class has minority samples. This problem is addressed in this study by utilizing the three sampling techniques. After balancing the datasets, each class has the same number of samples, which has proven valuable in improving the model’s performance and reducing the overfitting problem. Four performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall and f1 score are used to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid model. Experiments demonstrated that the proposed model achieved 100% accuracy, recall and f1 score using the balanced dataset with the random oversampling technique and 100% precision, 97% recall, 99% AUC score and 91% f1 score with the SMOTE technique.

Color information is useless for distinguishing significant edges and features in numerous applications. In image processing, a gray image discards much-unrequired data in a color image. The primary drawback of colour-to-grey conversion is eliminating the visually significant image pixels. A current proposal is a novel approach for transforming an RGB image into a grayscale image based on singular value decomposition (SVD). A specific factor magnifies one of the color channels (Red, Green, and Blue). A vector of three values (Red, Green, Blue) of each pixel in an image is decomposed using SVD into three matrices. The norm of the diagonal matrix was determined and then divided by a specific factor to obtain the grey value of the corresponding pixel. The contribution of the proposed method gives the user high flexibility to produce many versions of gray images with varying contrasts, which is very helpful in many applications. Furthermore, SVD allows for image reconstruction by combining the weighting of each channel with the singular value matrix. This results in a grayscale image that more accurately captures the actual intensity values of the image and preserves more color information than traditional grayscale conversion methods, resulting in loss of color information. The proposed method was compared with a similar method (converting the color image into grayscale) and was found to be the most efficient.

In today’s world, services are improved and advanced in every field of life. Especially in the health sector, information technology (IT) plays a vigorous role in electronic health (e-health). To achieve benefits from e-health, its cloud-based implementation is necessary. With this environment’s multiple benefits, privacy and security loopholes exist. As the number of users grows, the Electronic Healthcare System’s (EHS) response time becomes slower. This study presented a trust mechanism for access control (AC) known as role-based access control (RBAC) to address this issue. This method observes the user’s behavior and assigns roles based on it. The AC module has been implemented using SQL Server, and an administrator develops controls for users with roles and access to multiple EHS modules. To validate the user’s trust value, A .net-based framework has been introduced. The framework of e-health proposed in this research ensures that users can protect their data from intruders and other security threats.
