In computer vision and medical image processing, object recognition is the primary concern today. Humans require only a few milliseconds for object recognition and visual stimulation. This led to the development of a computer-specific pattern recognition method in this study for identifying objects in medical images such as brain tumors. Initially, an adaptive median filter is used to remove the noise from MRI images. Thereafter, the contrast image enhancement technique is used to improve the quality of the image. To evaluate the wireframe model, the cellular logic array processing (CLAP)-based algorithm is then applied to images. The basic patterns of three-dimensional (3D) images are then identified from the input image by scanning the whole image. The frequency of these patterns is also used for object classification. A deep neural network is then utilized for the classification of brain tumor. In the proposed model, the syntactic pattern recognition technique is used to find the feature vector and 3D AlexNet is used for brain tumor classification. To evaluate the performance of the proposed work, three benchmark brain tumor datasets are used, i.e., Figshare, Brain MRI Kaggle, and Medical MRI datasets and BraTS 2019 dataset. The comparative analyses reveal that the proposed brain tumor classification model achieves significantly better performance than the existing models.

Diabetes is a very fast-growing disease in India, with currently more than 72 million patients. Prolonged diabetes (about almost 20 years) can cause serious loss to the tiny blood vessels and neurons in the patient eyes, called diabetic retinopathy (DR). This first causes occlusion and then rapid vision loss. The symptoms of the disease are not very conspicuous in its early stage. The disease is featured by the formation of bloated structures in the retinal area called microaneurysms. Because of negligence, the condition of the eye worsens into the generation of more severe blots and damage to retinal vessels causing complete loss of vision. Early screening and monitoring of DR can reduce the risk of vision loss in patients with high possibilities. But the diabetic retinopathy detection and its classification by a human, is a challenging and error-prone task, because of the complexity of the image captured by color fundus photography. Machine learning algorithms armed with some feature extraction techniques have been employed earlier to detect and classify the levels of DR. However, these techniques provide below-par accuracy. Now, with the advent of deep learning (DL) techniques in computer vision, it has become possible to achieve very high levels of accuracy. DL models are an abstraction of the human brain coupled with the eyes. To create a model from scratch and train it is a cumbersome task requiring a huge amount of images. This deficiency of the DL techniques can be patched up by employing another technique to a task called transfer learning. In this, a DL model is trained on image metadata, and to learn features it used hundreds of classes from the DR fundus images. This enables professionals to create models capable of classifying unseen images into a proper grade or level with acceptable accuracy. This paper proposed a DL model coupled with different classifiers to classify the fundus image into its correct class of severity. We have trained the model on IDRD images and it has proven to show very high accuracy.

Telehealth and remote patient monitoring (RPM) have been critical components that have received substantial attention and gained hold since the pandemic’s beginning. Telehealth and RPM allow easy access to patient data and help provide high-quality care to patients at a low cost. This article proposes an Intelligent Remote Patient Activity Tracking System system that can monitor patient activities and vitals during those activities based on the attached sensors. An Internet of Things- (IoT-) enabled health monitoring device is designed using machine learning models to track patient’s activities such as running, sleeping, walking, and exercising, the vitals during those activities such as body temperature and heart rate, and the patient’s breathing pattern during such activities. Machine learning models are used to identify different activities of the patient and analyze the patient’s respiratory health during various activities. Currently, the machine learning models are used to detect cough and healthy breathing only. A web application is also designed to track the data uploaded by the proposed devices.

Rapid technological advancements are altering people’s communication styles. With the growth of the Internet, social networks (Twitter, Facebook, Telegram, and Instagram) have become popular forums for people to share their thoughts, psychological behavior, and emotions. Psychological analysis analyzes text and extracts facts, features, and important information from the opinions of users. Researchers working on psychological analysis rely on social networks for the detection of depression-related behavior and activity. Social networks provide innumerable data on mindsets of a person’s onset of depression, such as low sociology and activities such as undergoing medical treatment, a primary emphasis on oneself, and a high rate of activity during the day and night. In this paper, we used five machine learning classifiers—decision trees, K-nearest neighbor, support vector machines, logistic regression, and LSTM—for depression detection in tweets. The dataset is collected in two forms—balanced and imbalanced—where the oversampling of techniques is studied technically. The results show that the LSTM classification model outperforms the other baseline models in the depression detection healthcare approach for both balanced and imbalanced data.

Educational Institutions attempts to gather feedback from students' to study their sentiments towards courses and instructors and to enhance the performance of the instructors. Basically, such feedbacks are gathered at the end of the semester with the use of survey forms. However, this technique is very tedious, slow and time consuming. With the advent of social media, especially Facebook, the collection of feedback become easier through Facebook pages and groups. But, analyzing those feedbacks is equally challenging. This paper addresses those problems and uncovers the best model for analyzing those feedbacks with the use of machine learning techniques such as Support Vector Machines (SVM), Maximum Entropy (ME), Naive Bayes (NB), and Complement Naive Bayes (CNB) and applying neutral class. And, found SVM as the highest performer with an accuracy of 97% by applying different preprocessing and feature extraction techniques and avoiding neutral class, which outperform state-of-art work by 2%.

Medical image captioning provides the visual information of medical images in the form of natural language. It requires an efficient approach to understand and evaluate the similarity between visual and textual elements and to generate a sequence of output words. A novel show, attend, and tell model (ATM) is implemented, which considers a visual attention approach using an encoder-decoder model. But the show, attend, and tell model is sensitive to its initial parameters. Therefore, a Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm-II (SPEA-II) is utilized to optimize the initial parameters of the ATM. Finally, experiments are considered using the benchmark data sets and competitive medical image captioning techniques. Performance analysis shows that the SPEA-II-based ATM performs significantly better as compared to the existing models.
