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.
The problem of identifying a seed set composed of K nodes that increase influence spread over a social network is known as influence maximization (IM). Past works showed this problem to be NP-hard and an optimal solution to this problem using greedy algorithms achieved only 63% of spread. However, this approach is expensive and suffered from performance issues like high computational cost. Furthermore, in a network with communities, IM spread is not always certain. In this paper, heterogeneous influence maximization through community detection (HIMCD) algorithm is proposed. This approach addresses initial seed nodes selection in communities using various centrality measures, and these seed nodes act as sources for influence spread. A parallel influence maximization is applied with the aid of seed node set contained in each group. In this approach, graph is partitioned and IM computations are done in a distributed manner. Extensive experiments with two real-world datasets reveals that HCDIM achieves substantial performance improvement over state-of-the-art techniques.
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.
