Recent improvements in current technology have had a significant impact on a wide range of image processing applications, including medical imaging. Classification, detection, and segmentation are all important aspects of medical imaging technology. An enormous need exists for the segmentation of diagnostic images, which can be applied to a wide variety of medical research applications. It is important to develop an effective segmentation technique based on deep learning algorithms for optimal identification of regions of interest and rapid segmentation. To cover this gap, a pipeline for image segmentation using traditional Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as well as introduced Swarm Intelligence (SI) for optimal identification of the desired area has been proposed. Fuzzy C-means (FCM), K-means, and improvisation of FCM with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), improvisation of K-means with PSO, improvisation of FCM with CNN, and improvisation of K-means with CNN are the six modules examined and evaluated. Experiments are carried out on various types of images such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for brain data analysis, dermoscopic for skin, microscopic for blood leukemia, and computed tomography (CT) scan images for lungs. After combining all of the datasets, we have constructed five subsets of data, each of which had a different number of images: 50, 100, 500, 1000, and 2000. Each of the models was executed and trained on the selected subset of the datasets. From the experimental analysis, it is observed that the performance of K-means with CNN is better than others and achieved 96.45 segmentation accuracy with an average time of 9.09seconds.

The abnormal growth of the skin cells is known as skin cancer. It is one of the main problems in the dermatology area. Skin lesions or malignancies have been a source of worry for many individuals in recent years. Irrespective of the skin tone, there exist three major classes of skin lesions, i.e., basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. The early diagnosis of these lesions is equally important for human life. In the proposed work, a secure IoMT‐Assisted framework is introduced that can help the patients to do the initial screening of skin lesions remotely. The initially proposed approach uses an IoMT‐based data collection device which is accessible by patients to capture skin lesions images. Next, the captured skin sample is encrypted and sent to the collected image toward cloud storage. Later, the received sample image is classified into appropriate class labels using an ensemble classifier. In the proposed framework, four CNN models were ensemble i.e., VGG‐16, DenseNet‐201, Inception‐V3, and Efficient‐B7. The framework has experimented with the “HAM10000” dataset having 7 different kinds of skin lesions data. Although DenseNet‐201 performed well, the ensemble model provides the highest accuracy with 87.22 percent as well as its test loss/error is lower than others with 0.4131. Moreover, the ensemble model’s classification ability is much higher with an AUC score of 0.9745. Moreover, A recommendation team has been assigned to assess the sample of the patient as well as suggest the patient according to classified results by the CAD.

Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease associated with changes in the skin's structure in which the immune system attacks the body. A recent meta-analysis has reported a high incidence of cancer prognosis including lung cancer (LC), leukemia (LK), and lymphoma (LP) in patients with SSc as comorbidity but its underlying mechanistic details are yet to be revealed. To address this research gap, bioinformatics methodologies were developed to explore the comorbidity interactions between a pair of diseases. Firstly, appropriate gene expression datasets from different repositories on SSc and its comorbidities were collected. Then the interconnection between SSc and its cancer comorbidities was identified by applying the developed pipelines. The pipeline was designed as a generic workflow to demonstrate a premise comorbid condition that integrate regarding gene expression data, tissue/organ meta-data, Gene Ontology (GO), Molecular pathways, and other online resources, and analyze them with Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), Pathway enrichment and Semantic Similarity (SS). The pipeline was implemented in R and can be accessed through our Github repository: https://github.com/hiddenntreasure/comorbidity. Our result suggests that SSc and its cancer comorbidities share differentially expressed genes, functional terms (gene ontology), and pathways. The findings have led to a better understanding of disease pathways and our developed methodologies may be applied to any set of diseases for finding any association between them. This research may be used by physicians, researchers, biologists, and others.

Expanding data suggest that glioblastoma is accountable for the growing prevalence of various forms of stroke formation, such as ischemic stroke and moyamoya disease. However, the underlying deterministic details are still unspecified. Bioinformatics approaches are designed to investigate the relationships between two pathogens as well as fill this study void. Glioblastoma is a form of cancer that typically occurs in the brain or spinal cord and is highly destructive. A stroke occurs when a brain region starts to lose blood circulation and prevents functioning. Moyamoya disorder is a recurrent and recurring arterial disorder of the brain. To begin, adequate gene expression datasets on glioblastoma, ischemic stroke, and moyamoya disease were gathered from various repositories. Then, the association between glioblastoma, ischemic stroke, and moyamoya was established using the existing pipelines. The framework was developed as a generalized workflow to allow for the aggregation of transcriptomic gene expression across specific tissue; Gene Ontology (GO) and biological pathway, as well as the validation of such data, are carried out using enrichment studies such as protein–protein interaction and gold benchmark databases. The results contribute to a more profound knowledge of the disease mechanisms and unveil the projected correlations among the diseases.

Sentiment analysis can largely influence the people to get the update of the current situation. Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a contagious illness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes severe respiratory symptoms. The lives of millions have continued to be affected by this pandemic, several countries have resorted to a full lockdown. During this lockdown, people have taken social networks to express their emotions to find a way to calm themselves down. People are spreading their sentiments through microblogging websites as one of the most preventive steps of this disease is the socialization to gain people’s awareness to stay home and keep their distance when they are outside home. Twitter is a popular online social media platform for exchanging ideas. People can post their different sentiments, which can be used to aware people. But, some people want to spread fake news to frighten the people. So, it is necessary to identify the positive, negative, and neutral thoughts so that the positive opinions can be delivered to the mass people for spreading awareness to the people. Moreover, a huge volume of data is floating on Twitter. So, it is also important to identify the context of the dataset. In this paper, we have analyzed the twitter dataset for evaluating the sentiment using several machine learning algorithms, where the random forest algorithm achieved the highest accuracy of 93%. Later, we have found out the context learning of the dataset based on the sentiments.

Construction of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is essential for elucidating the regulatory mechanisms underlying metabolic pathways, biological processes, and complex traits. In this study, we developed and evaluated machine learning, deep learning, and hybrid approaches for constructing GRNs by integrating prior knowledge and large-scale transcriptomic data from Arabidopsis thaliana, poplar, and maize. Among these, hybrid models that combined convolutional neural networks and machine learning consistently outperformed traditional machine learning and statistical methods, achieving over 95% accuracy on the holdout test datasets. These models not only identified a greater number of known transcription factors regulating the lignin biosynthesis pathway but also demonstrated higher precision in ranking key master regulators such as MYB46 and MYB83, as well as many upstream regulators, including members of the VND, NST, and SND families, at the top of candidate lists. To address the challenge of limited training data in non-model species, we implemented transfer learning, enabling cross-species GRN inference by applying models trained on well-characterized and data-rich species to another species with limited data. This strategy enhanced model performance and demonstrated the feasibility of knowledge transfer across species. Overall, our findings underscore the effectiveness of hybrid and transfer learning approaches in GRN prediction, offering a scalable framework for elucidating regulatory mechanisms in both model and non-model plant systems.
