Histopathology images are very distinctive, and one image may contain thousands of objects.Transferring features from natural images to histopathology images may not provide impressive outcomes. In this study, we have proposed a novel modality-specific CBAM-VGGNet model for classifying H and E stained breast histopathology images. Instead of using pre-trained models on ImageNet, we have trained VGG16 and VGG19 models on the same domain cancerous histopathology datasets which are then used as fixed feature extractors. We have added GAP layer and Convolutional block attention module (CBAM) after the first convolutional layer of convolutional blocks. CBAM is an effective module for neural networks to focus on relevant features. We have implemented the VGG16 and VGG19 in a novel way following the configuration of state-of-the-art models with our own concatenated layers. The addition of the GAP layer in VGGNet has reduced the number of parameters and hence requiring less computational power. Both models are ensembled using the averaging ensemble technique. Features are extracted from the final ensembled model then passed to the feed-forward neural network. A hybrid pre-processing technique is proposed that first use median filter and afterwards contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE). Median filter is utilized to remove the highly significant noise and is directly related to image quality. CLAHE improve the local contrast present in an image and boost the weak boundary edges in each image pixel. The proposed CBAM ensemble model has outperformed state-of-the-art models with an accuracy of 98.96% and 97.95% F1-score on 400X data of BreakHis dataset.
In the context of ICCPR, the doctrine of the non-derogable rights is very significant in its nature keeping in view the concept of the civil and political rights. Further these tights are still available even during the time of public emergency which may threaten the life of the state parties. So the role of those bodies which have manifesto to ensure the implementation of such rights is very significant. In such scenario there is an issue that the states parties are bound to fulfill its obligations during that time of public emergency by fulfilling the conditions envisaged in the Article 4 of ICCPR. Although there are monitoring mechanism is there in the shape of the treaty bodies for the ensuring the implementation of the non-derogable rights. But not with standing that there is dire need of some cogent and effective mechanism to monitor and supervise its execution by internationally recognized bodies which are called treaty bodies in terms of ensuring its implementation in letter and spirit as per the scheme and objective of the International covenant on civil and political rights 1966.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
