Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects millions of people worldwide, making early detection essential for effective intervention. This review paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the use of deep learning techniques, specifically convolutional neural networks (CNN) and vision transformers (ViT), for the classification of AD using brain imaging data. While previous reviews have covered similar topics, this paper offers a unique perspective by providing a detailed comparison of CNN and ViT for AD classification, highlighting the strengths and limitations of each approach. Additionally, the review presents an updated and thorough analysis of the most recent studies in the field, including the latest advancements in CNN and ViT architectures, training methods, and performance evaluation metrics. Furthermore, the paper discusses the ethical considerations and challenges associated with the use of deep learning models for AD classification, such as the need for interpretability and the potential for bias. By addressing these issues, this review aims to provide valuable insights for future research and clinical applications, ultimately advancing the field of AD classification using deep learning techniques.
COVID-19 has evolved into one of the most severe and acute illnesses. The number of deaths continues to climb despite the development of vaccines and new strains of the virus have appeared. The early and precise recognition of COVID-19 are key in viably treating patients and containing the pandemic on the whole. Deep learning technology has been shown to be a significant tool in diagnosing COVID-19 and in assisting radiologists to detect anomalies and numerous diseases during this epidemic. This research seeks to provide an overview of novel deep learning-based applications for medical imaging modalities, computer tomography (CT) and chest X-rays (CXR), for the detection and classification COVID-19. First, we give an overview of the taxonomy of medical imaging and present a summary of types of deep learning (DL) methods. Then, utilizing deep learning techniques, we present an overview of systems created for COVID-19 detection and classification. We also give a rundown of the most well-known databases used to train these networks. Finally, we explore the challenges of using deep learning algorithms to detect COVID-19, as well as future research prospects in this field.

Malaria is a huge public health concern around the world. The conventional method of diagnosing malaria is for qualified technicians to visually examine blood smears for parasite-infected red blood cells under a microscope. This procedure is ineffective. It takes time and requires the expertise of a skilled specialist. The diagnosis is dependent on the individual performing the examination’s experience and understanding. This article offers a new and robust deep learning model for automatically classifying malaria cells as infected or uninfected. This approach is based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). It improved by the regularization method on a publicly available dataset which contains 27, 558 cell images with equal instances of parasitized and uninfected cells from the National Institute of health. The performance of our proposed model is 99.70% of accuracy and 0.0476 loss value.
