The current outbreak of monkeypox (mpox) has become a major public health concern because of the quick spread of this disease across multiple countries. Early detection and diagnosis of mpox is crucial for effective treatment and management. Considering this, the purpose of this research was to detect and validate the best performing model for detecting mpox using deep learning approaches and classification models. To achieve this goal, we evaluated the performance of five common pretrained deep learning models (VGG19, VGG16, ResNet50, MobileNetV2, and EfficientNetB3) and compared their accuracy levels when detecting mpox. The performance of the models was assessed with metrics (i.e., the accuracy, recall, precision, and F1-score). Our experimental results demonstrate that the MobileNetV2 model had the best classification performance with an accuracy level of 98.16%, a recall of 0.96, a precision of 0.99, and an F1-score of 0.98. Additionally, validation of the model with different datasets showed that the highest accuracy of 0.94% was achieved using the MobileNetV2 model. Our findings indicate that the MobileNetV2 method outperforms previous models described in the literature in mpox image classification. These results are promising, as they show that machine learning techniques could be used for the early detection of mpox. Our algorithm was able to achieve a high level of accuracy in classifying mpox in both the training and test sets, making it a potentially valuable tool for quick and accurate diagnosis in clinical settings.

Brain tumors can be serious; consequently, rapid and accurate detection is crucial. Nevertheless, a variety of obstacles, such as poor imaging resolution, doubts over the accuracy of data, a lack of diverse tumor classes and stages, and the possibility of misunderstanding, present challenges to achieve an accurate and final diagnosis. Effective brain cancer detection is crucial for patients’ safety and health. Deep learning systems provide the capability to assist radiologists in quickly and accurately detecting diagnoses. This study presents an innovative deep learning approach that utilizes the Swin Transformer. The suggested method entails integrating the Swin Transformer with the pretrained deep learning model Resnet50V2, called (SwT+Resnet50V2). The objective of this modification is to decrease memory utilization, enhance classification accuracy, and reduce training complexity. The self-attention mechanism of the Swin Transformer identifies distant relationships and captures the overall context. Resnet 50V2 improves both accuracy and training speed by extracting adaptive features from the Swin Transformer’s dependencies. We evaluate the proposed framework using two publicly accessible brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) datasets, each including two and four distinct classes, respectively. Employing data augmentation and transfer learning techniques enhances model performance, leading to more dependable and cost-effective training. The suggested model achieves an impressive accuracy of 99.9% on the binary-labeled dataset and 96.8% on the four-labeled dataset, outperforming the VGG16, MobileNetV2, Resnet50V2, EfficientNetV2B3, ConvNeXtTiny, and convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithms used for comparison. This demonstrates that the Swin transducer, when combined with Resnet50V2, is capable of accurately diagnosing brain tumors. This method leverages the combination of SwT+Resnet50V2 to create an innovative diagnostic tool. Radiologists have the potential to accelerate and improve the detection of brain tumors, leading to improved patient outcomes and reduced risks.

Air writing is one of the essential fields that the world is turning to, which can benefit from the world of the metaverse, as well as the ease of communication between humans and machines. The research literature on air writing and its applications shows significant work in English and Chinese, while little research is conducted in other languages, such as Arabic. To fill this gap, we propose a hybrid model that combines feature extraction with deep learning models and then uses machine learning (ML) and optical character recognition (OCR) methods and applies grid and random search optimization algorithms to obtain the best model parameters and outcomes. Several machine learning methods (e.g., neural networks (NNs), random forest (RF), K-nearest neighbours (KNN), and support vector machine (SVM)) are applied to deep features extracted from deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), such as VGG16, VGG19, and SqueezeNet. Our study uses the AHAWP dataset, which consists of diverse writing styles and hand sign variations, to train and evaluate the models. Prepossessing schemes are applied to improve data quality by reducing bias. Furthermore, OCR character (OCR) methods are integrated into our model to isolate individual letters from continuous air-written gestures and improve recognition results. The results of this study showed that the proposed model achieved the best accuracy of 88.8% using NN with VGG16.

The intricate neuroinflammatory diseases multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica (NMO) often present similar clinical symptoms, creating challenges in their precise detection via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This challenge is further compounded when detecting the active and inactive states of MS. To address this diagnostic problem, we introduce an innovative framework that incorporates state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms applied to features culled from MRI scans by pre-trained deep learning models, VGG-NET and InceptionV3. To develop and test this methodology, we utilized a robust dataset obtained from the King Abdullah University Hospital in Jordan, encompassing cases diagnosed with both MS and NMO. We benchmarked thirteen distinct machine learning algorithms and discovered that support vector machine (SVM) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithms performed superiorly in our context. Our results demonstrated KNN’s exceptional performance in differentiating between MS and NMO, with precision, recall, F1-score, and accuracy values of 0.98, 0.99, 0.99, and 0.99, respectively, using leveraging features extracted from VGG16. In contrast, SVM excelled in classifying active versus inactive states of MS, achieving precision, recall, F1-score, and accuracy values of 0.99, 0.97, 0.98, and 0.98, respectively, using leveraging features extracted from VGG16 and VGG19. Our advanced methodology outshines previous studies, providing clinicians with a highly accurate, efficient tool for diagnosing these diseases. The immediate implication of our research is the potential to streamline treatment processes, thereby delivering timely, appropriate care to patients suffering from these complex diseases.
