Glaucoma is the second driving reason for partial or complete blindness among all the visual deficiencies which mainly occurs because of excessive pressure in the eye due to anxiety or depression which damages the optic nerve and creates complications in vision. Traditional glaucoma screening is a time-consuming process that necessitates the medical professionals' constant attention, and even so time to time due to the time constrains and pressure they fail to classify correctly that leads to wrong treatment. Numerous efforts have been made to automate the entire glaucoma classification procedure however, these existing models in general have a black box characteristics that prevents users from understanding the key reasons behind the prediction and thus medical practitioners generally can not rely on these system. In this article after comparing with various pre-trained models, we propose a transfer learning model that is able to classify Glaucoma with 94.71% accuracy. In addition, we have utilized Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations(LIME) that introduces explainability in our system. This improvement enables medical professionals obtain important and comprehensive information that aid them in making judgments. It also lessen the opacity and fragility of the traditional deep learning models.

The coronavirus epidemic has spread to virtually every country on the globe, inflicting enormous health, financial, and emotional devastation, as well as the collapse of healthcare systems in some countries. Any automated COVID detection system that allows for fast detection of the COVID-19 infection might be highly beneficial to the healthcare service and people around the world. Molecular or antigen testing along with radiology X-ray imaging is now utilized in clinics to diagnose COVID-19. Nonetheless, due to a spike in coronavirus and hospital doctors’ overwhelming workload, developing an AI-based auto-COVID detection system with high accuracy has become imperative. On X-ray images, the diagnosis of COVID-19, non-COVID-19 non-COVID viral pneumonia, and other lung opacity can be challenging. This research utilized artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver high-accuracy automated COVID-19 detection from normal chest X-ray images. Further, this study extended to differentiate COVID-19 from normal, lung opacity and non-COVID viral pneumonia images. We have employed three distinct pre-trained models that are Xception, VGG19, and ResNet50 on a benchmark dataset of 21,165 X-ray images. Initially, we formulated the COVID-19 detection problem as a binary classification problem to classify COVID-19 from normal X-ray images and gained 97.5%, 97.5%, and 93.3% accuracy for Xception, VGG19, and ResNet50 respectively. Later we focused on developing an efficient model for multi-class classification and gained an accuracy of 75% for ResNet50, 92% for VGG19, and finally 93% for Xception. Although Xception and VGG19’s performances were identical, Xception proved to be more efficient with its higher precision, recall, and f-1 scores. Finally, we have employed Explainable AI on each of our utilized model which adds interpretability to our study. Furthermore, we have conducted a comprehensive comparison of the model’s explanations and the study revealed that Xception is more precise in indicating the actual features that are responsible for a model’s predictions.This addition of explainable AI will benefit the medical professionals greatly as they will get to visualize how a model makes its prediction and won’t have to trust our developed machine-learning models blindly.

Being one of the most widely spoken language in the world, the use of Bangla has been increasing in the world of social media as well. Sarcasm is a positive statement or remark with an underlying negative motivation that is extensively employed in today's social media platforms. There has been a significant improvement in sarcasm detection in English over the previous many years, however the situation regarding Bangla sarcasm detection remains unchanged. As a result, it is still difficult to identify sarcasm in bangla, and a lack of high-quality data is a major contributing factor. This article proposes BanglaSarc, a dataset constructed specifically for bangla textual data sarcasm detection. This dataset contains of 5112 comments/status and contents collected from various online social platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, along with a few online blogs. Due to the limited amount of data collection of categorized comments in Bengali, this dataset will aid in the of study identifying sarcasm, recognizing people's emotion, detecting various types of Bengali expressions, and other domains. The dataset is publicly available at https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/sakibapon/banglasarc.

White Blood Cells (WBCs), or leukocytes, are essential components of the immune system that protect the body against infections and malignant disorders. Even minor fluctuations in leukocyte count can indicate serious pathological conditions, including life-threatening malignancies such as leukemia, lymphoma, and myelodysplastic syndromes. Conventional diagnosis through manual microscopic examination is time-consuming, subjective, and heavily dependent on the pathologist’s expertise. To overcome these challenges, this study introduces LeukocyteNet, a transfer–transformer fusion model designed for the automated classification of ten malignant leukocyte categories. The model integrates convolutional feature extraction from VGG19 with the Swin Transformer’s global attention mechanism, enabling robust representations of both local morphology and global spatial dependencies. The LeukocyteNet model was trained on three publicly available datasets “ALL-IDB, the American Society of Hematology Image Bank, and Tehran Taleqani Hospital” and achieved an overall accuracy of 97.34%, a macro-averaged F1-score of 0.95, and a recall of 0.93, outperforming all evaluated baseline models. Furthermore, the inclusion of explainable AI techniques Grad-CAM, LIME, and Saliency Map enhances explainability by visualizing class-specific decision regions, thereby increasing clinical transparency and reliability. These findings demonstrate that LeukocyteNet not only achieves state-of-the-art predictive performance but also provides interpretable insights critical for trustworthy medical diagnostics.
