In recent years, driver fatigue has become one of the main causes of road accidents. As a result, fatigue detection systems have been developed to warn drivers, and, among the available methods, EEG signal analysis is recognized as the most reliable method for detecting driver fatigue. This study presents an automated system for a two-stage classification of driver fatigue, using a combination of compressed sensing (CS) theory and deep neural networks (DNNs), that is based on EEG signals. First, CS theory is used to compress the recorded EEG data in order to reduce the computational load. Then, the compressed EEG data is fed into the proposed deep convolutional neural network for automatic feature extraction/selection and classification purposes. The proposed network architecture includes seven convolutional layers together with three long short-term memory (LSTM) layers. For compression rates of 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90, the simulation results for a single-channel recording show accuracies of 95, 94.8, 94.6, 94.4, 94.4, and 92%, respectively. Furthermore, by comparing the results to previous methods, the accuracy of the proposed method for the two-stage classification of driver fatigue has been improved and can be used to effectively detect driver fatigue.

In recent years, detecting driver fatigue has been a significant practical necessity and issue. Even though several investigations have been undertaken to examine driver fatigue, there are relatively few standard datasets on identifying driver fatigue. For earlier investigations, conventional methods relying on manual characteristics were utilized to assess driver fatigue. In any case study, such approaches need previous information for feature extraction, which could raise computing complexity. The current work proposes a driver fatigue detection system, which is a fundamental necessity to minimize road accidents. Data from 11 people are gathered for this purpose, resulting in a comprehensive dataset. The dataset is prepared in accordance with previously published criteria. A deep convolutional neural network–long short-time memory (CNN–LSTM) network is conceived and evolved to extract characteristics from raw EEG data corresponding to the six active areas A, B, C, D, E (based on a single channel), and F. The study’s findings reveal that the suggested deep CNN–LSTM network could learn features hierarchically from raw EEG data and attain a greater precision rate than previous comparative approaches for two-stage driver fatigue categorization. The suggested approach may be utilized to construct automatic fatigue detection systems because of their precision and high speed.

Segmenting the liver and liver tumors in computed tomography (CT) images is an important step toward quantifiable biomarkers for a computer-aided decision-making system and precise medical diagnosis. Radiologists and specialized physicians use CT images to diagnose and classify liver organs and tumors. Because these organs have similar characteristics in form, texture, and light intensity values, other internal organs such as the heart, spleen, stomach, and kidneys confuse visual recognition of the liver and tumor division. Furthermore, visual identification of liver tumors is time-consuming, complicated, and error-prone, and incorrect diagnosis and segmentation can hurt the patient’s life. Many automatic and semi-automatic methods based on machine learning algorithms have recently been suggested for liver organ recognition and tumor segmentation. However, there are still difficulties due to poor recognition precision and speed and a lack of dependability. This paper presents a novel deep learning-based technique for segmenting liver tumors and identifying liver organs in computed tomography maps. Based on the LiTS17 database, the suggested technique comprises four Chebyshev graph convolution layers and a fully connected layer that can accurately segment the liver and liver tumors. Thus, the accuracy, Dice coefficient, mean IoU, sensitivity, precision, and recall obtained based on the proposed method according to the LiTS17 dataset are around 99.1%, 91.1%, 90.8%, 99.4%, 99.4%, and 91.2%, respectively. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method was evaluated in a noisy environment, and the proposed network could withstand a wide range of environmental signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). Thus, at SNR = −4 dB, the accuracy of the proposed method for liver organ segmentation remained around 90%. The proposed model has obtained satisfactory and favorable results compared to previous research. According to the positive results, the proposed model is expected to be used to assist radiologists and specialist doctors in the near future.

Reaching out the function of the brain in perceiving input data from the outside world is one of the great targets of neuroscience. Neural decoding helps us to model the connection between brain activities and the visual stimulation. The reconstruction of images from brain activity can be achieved through this modelling. Recent studies have shown that brain activity is impressed by visual saliency, the important parts of an image stimuli. In this paper, a deep model is proposed to reconstruct the image stimuli from electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings via visual saliency. To this end, the proposed geometric deep network-based generative adversarial network (GDN-GAN) is trained to map the EEG signals to the visual saliency maps corresponding to each image. The first part of the proposed GDN-GAN consists of Chebyshev graph convolutional layers. The input of the GDN part of the proposed network is the functional connectivity-based graph representation of the EEG channels. The output of the GDN is imposed to the GAN part of the proposed network to reconstruct the image saliency. The proposed GDN-GAN is trained using the Google Colaboratory Pro platform. The saliency metrics validate the viability and efficiency of the proposed saliency reconstruction network. The weights of the trained network are used as initial weights to reconstruct the grayscale image stimuli. The proposed network realizes the image reconstruction from EEG signals.

Images of brain tumors may only show up in a small subset of scans, so important details may be missed. Further, because labeling is typically a labor-intensive and time-consuming task, there are typically only a small number of medical imaging datasets available for analysis. The focus of this research is on the MRI images of the human brain, and an attempt has been made to propose a method for the accurate segmentation of these images to identify the correct location of tumors. In this study, GAN is utilized as a classification network to detect and segment of 3D MRI images. The 3D GAN network model provides dense connectivity, followed by rapid network convergence and improved information extraction. Mutual training in a generative adversarial network can bring the segmentation results closer to the labeled data to improve image segmentation. The BraTS 2021 dataset of 3D images was used to compare two experimental models.
