Glaucoma is an eye disease in which the retinal nerve fibers are irreversibly damaged. Early identification of glaucoma is essential because it may slow the progression of the illness. The clinical treatments and medical imaging methods that are currently available are all manual and require expert supervision. An automated glaucoma diagnosis system that is fast, accurate, and helps to reduce the load on professionals is necessary for mass screening. In our proposed work, a novel approach based on bit‐plane slicing (BPS), local binary pattern (LBP), and gray‐level co‐occurrence matrix (GLCM) is used. First, fundus images are separated into channels like red, green, and blue, and these separated channels are split into plans using BPS. Then, LBP images are obtained from selected green channel images. Second, we extract features based on GLCM from LBP images. Finally, using a least‐squares support vector machine classifier, the higher ranked features are employed to classify glaucoma stages. According to the findings of the experiments, our model outperformed state‐of‐the‐art approaches for glaucoma classification. Using 10‐fold cross‐validation, this model achieved an improved classification accuracy of 95.04%, specificity of 96.37%, and sensitivity of 93.77%. We conducted many relative experiments with deep learning and traditional machine learning‐based models to test our proposed methodology. Compared to existing glaucoma classification approaches, the new method has been shown to be more efficient.
COVID-19 is a deadly and fast-spreading disease that makes early death by affecting human organs, primarily the lungs. The detection of COVID in the early stages is crucial as it may help restrict the spread of the progress. The traditional and trending tools are manual, time-inefficient, and less accurate. Hence, an automated diagnosis of COVID is needed to detect COVID in the early stages. Recently, several methods for exploiting computed tomography (CT) scan pictures to detect COVID have been developed; however, none are effective in detecting COVID at the preliminary phase. We propose a method based on twodimensional variational mode decomposition in this work. This proposed approach decomposes pre-processed CT scan pictures into sub-bands. The texturebased Gabor filter bank extracts the relevant features, and the student's t-value is used to recognize robust traits. After that, linear discriminative analysis (LDA) reduces the dimensionality of features and provides ranks for robust features. Only the first 14 LDA features are qualified for classification. Finally, the least squaresupport vector machine (SVM) (radial basis function) classifier distinguishes between COVID and non-COVID CT lung images. The results of the trial showed that our model outperformed cutting-edge methods for COVID classification. Using tenfold cross-validation, this model achieved an improved classification accuracy of 93.96%, a specificity of 95.59%, and an F1 score of 93%. To validate our proposed methodology, we conducted different relative experiments with deep learning and traditional machine learning-based models like random forest, K-nearest neighbor, SVM, convolutional neural network, and recurrent neural network. The proposed model is ready to help radiologists identify diseases daily.
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.
