The identification of plant leaf diseases is crucial in precision agriculture, playing a pivotal role in advancing the modernization of agriculture. Timely detection and diagnosis of leaf diseases for preventive measures significantly contribute to enhancing both the quantity and quality of agricultural products, thereby fostering the in-depth development of precision agriculture. However, despite the rapid development of research on plant leaf disease identification, it still faces challenges such as insufficient agricultural datasets and the problem of deep learning-based disease identification models having numerous training parameters and insufficient accuracy. This paper proposes a plant leaf disease identification method based on improved SinGAN and improved ResNet34 to address the aforementioned issues. Firstly, an improved SinGAN called Reconstruction-Based Single Image Generation Network (ReSinGN) is proposed for image enhancement. This network accelerates model training speed by using an autoencoder to replace the GAN in the SinGAN and incorporates a Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) into the autoencoder to more accurately capture important features and structural information in the images. Random pixel Shuffling are introduced in ReSinGN to enable the model to learn richer data representations, further enhancing the quality of generated images. Secondly, an improved ResNet34 is proposed for plant leaf disease identification. This involves adding CBAM modules to the ResNet34 to alleviate the limitations of parameter sharing, replacing the ReLU activation function with LeakyReLU activation function to address the problem of neuron death, and utilizing transfer learning-based training methods to accelerate network training speed. This paper takes tomato leaf diseases as the experimental subject, and the experimental results demonstrate that: (1) ReSinGN generates high-quality images at least 44.6 times faster in training speed compared to SinGAN. (2) The Tenengrad score of images generated by the ReSinGN model is 67.3, which is improved by 30.2 compared to the SinGAN, resulting in clearer images. (3) ReSinGN model with random pixel Shuffling outperforms SinGAN in both image clarity and distortion, achieving the optimal balance between image clarity and distortion. (4) The improved ResNet34 achieved an average recognition accuracy, recognition precision, recognition accuracy (redundant as it\'s similar to precision), recall, and F1 score of 98.57, 96.57, 98.68, 97.7, and 98.17%, respectively, for tomato leaf disease identification. Compared to the original ResNet34, this represents enhancements of 3.65, 4.66, 0.88, 4.1, and 2.47%, respectively.

Brain cancer is a life-threatening disease requiring close attention. Early and accurate diagnosis using non-invasive medical imaging is critical for successful treatment and patient survival. However, manual diagnosis by radiologist experts is time-consuming and has limitations in processing large datasets efficiently. Therefore, efficient systems capable of analyzing vast amounts of medical data for early tumor detection are urgently needed. Deep learning (DL) with deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) emerges as a promising tool for understanding diseases like brain cancer through medical imaging modalities, especially MRI, which provides detailed soft tissue contrast for visualizing tumors and organs. DL techniques have become more and more popular in current research on brain tumor detection. Unlike traditional machine learning methods requiring manual feature extraction, DL models are adept at handling complex data like MRIs and excel in classification tasks, making them well-suited for medical image analysis applications. This study presents a novel Dual DCNN model that can accurately classify cancerous and non-cancerous MRI samples. Our Dual DCNN model uses two well-performed DL models, i.e., inceptionV3 and denseNet121. Features are extracted from these models by appending a global max pooling layer. The extracted features are then utilized to train the model with the addition of five fully connected layers and finally accurately classify MRI samples as cancerous or non-cancerous. The fully connected layers are retrained to learn the extracted features for better accuracy. The technique achieves 99%, 99%, 98%, and 99% of accuracy, precision, recall, and f1-scores, respectively. Furthermore, this study compares the Dual DCNN\'s performance against various well-known DL models, including DenseNet121, InceptionV3, ResNet architectures, EfficientNetB2, SqueezeNet, VGG16, AlexNet, and LeNet-5, with different learning rates. This study indicates that our proposed approach outperforms these established models in terms of performance.

A lot of underdeveloped nations particularly in Africa struggle with cancer-related, deadly diseases. Particularly in women, the incidence of breast cancer is rising daily because of ignorance and delayed diagnosis. Only by correctly identifying and diagnosing cancer in its very early stages of development can be effectively treated. The classification of cancer can be accelerated and automated with the aid of computer-aided diagnosis and medical image analysis techniques. This research provides the use of transfer learning from a Residual Network 18 (ResNet18) and Residual Network 34 (ResNet34) architectures to detect breast cancer. The study examined how breast cancer can be identified in breast mammography pictures using transfer learning from ResNet18 and ResNet34, and developed a demo app for radiologists using the trained models with the best validation accuracy. 1, 200 datasets of breast x-ray mammography images from the National Radiological Society\'s (NRS) archives were employed in the study. The dataset was categorised as implant cancer negative, implant cancer positive, cancer negative and cancer positive in order to increase the consistency of x-ray mammography images classification and produce better features. For the multi-class classification of the images, the study gave an average accuracy for binary classification of benign or malignant cancer cases of 86.7% validation accuracy for ResNet34 and 92% validation accuracy for ResNet18. A prototype web application showcasing ResNet18 performance has been created. The acquired results show how transfer learning can improve the accuracy of breast cancer detection, providing invaluable assistance to medical professionals, particularly in an African scenario.

UNASSIGNED: Early-stage lung cancer is typically characterized clinically by the presence of isolated lung nodules. Thousands of cases are examined each year, and one case usually contains numerous lung CT slices. Detecting and classifying early microscopic lung nodules is demanding due to their diminutive dimensions and restricted characterization capabilities. Therefore, a lung nodule classification model that performs well and is sensitive to microscopic lung nodules is needed to accurately classify lung nodules.
UNASSIGNED: This paper uses the Resnet34 network as a basic classification model. A new cascade lung nodule classification method is proposed to classify lung nodules into 6 classes instead of the traditional 2 or 4 classes. It can effectively classify six different nodule types including ground-glass and solid nodules, benign and malignant nodules, and nodules with predominantly ground-glass or solid components.
UNASSIGNED: In this paper, the traditional multi-classification method and the cascade classification method proposed in this paper were tested using real lung nodule data collected in the clinic. The test results demonstrate that the cascade classification method in this study achieves an accuracy of 80.04%, outperforming the conventional multi-classification approach.
UNASSIGNED: Different from the existing methods for categorizing the benign and malignant nature of lung nodules, the approach presented in this paper can classify lung nodules into 6 categories more accurately. At the same time, This paper proposes a rapid, precise, and dependable approach for classifying six distinct categories of lung nodules, which increases the accuracy categorization compared with the traditional multivariate categorization method.

Quality of life is greatly affected by chronic wounds. It requires more intensive care than acute wounds. Schedule follow-up appointments with their doctor to track healing. Good wound treatment promotes healing and fewer problems. Wound care requires precise and reliable wound measurement to optimize patient treatment and outcomes according to evidence-based best practices. Images are used to objectively assess wound state by quantifying key healing parameters. Nevertheless, the robust segmentation of wound images is complex because of the high diversity of wound types and imaging conditions. This study proposes and evaluates a novel hybrid model developed for wound segmentation in medical images. The model combines advanced deep learning techniques with traditional image processing methods to improve the accuracy and reliability of wound segmentation. The main objective is to overcome the limitations of existing segmentation methods (UNet) by leveraging the combined advantages of both paradigms. In our investigation, we introduced a hybrid model architecture, wherein a ResNet34 is utilized as the encoder, and a UNet is employed as the decoder. The combination of ResNet34\'s deep representation learning and UNet\'s efficient feature extraction yields notable benefits. The architectural design successfully integrated high-level and low-level features, enabling the generation of segmentation maps with high precision and accuracy. Following the implementation of our model to the actual data, we were able to determine the following values for the Intersection over Union (IOU), Dice score, and accuracy: 0.973, 0.986, and 0.9736, respectively. According to the achieved results, the proposed method is more precise and accurate than the current state-of-the-art.

Since the global COVID-19 outbreak in the spring of 2020, online instruction has replaced traditional classroom instruction as the main method of educating students. Teaching physical education online can be challenging, as it may be difficult to teach students certain movements, accurate student mobility, and appropriate exercise assignments. This paper proposed an online teaching support system with sustainable development features that utilize several large data sets. The system is based on the deep learning image recognition algorithm ResNet34, which can analyze and correct student actions in real-time for gymnastics, dance, basketball, and other sports. By combining the attention mechanism module with the original ResNet34, the detection precision of the system can be enhanced. The sustainability of the system is evident from the fact that the data set can be expanded in response to the emergence of new sports categories and can be kept current in real-time. According to experiments, the target identification accuracy of the proposed system, which combines ResNet34 and the attention mechanism, is higher than that of several other methods currently in use. The proposed techniques outperform the original ResNet34 in terms of accuracy, precision, and recall by 4.1%, 2.8%, and 3.6%, respectively. The suggested approach significantly improves student action correction in virtual sports instruction.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become a common health problem of mankind, and the prevalence and mortality of CVD are rising on a year-to-year basis. Blood pressure (BP) is an important physiological parameter of the human body and also an important physiological indicator for the prevention and treatment of CVD. Existing intermittent measurement methods do not fully indicate the real BP status of the human body and cannot get rid of the restraining feeling of a cuff. Accordingly, this study proposed a deep learning network based on the ResNet34 framework for continuous prediction of BP using only the promising PPG signal. The high-quality PPG signals were first passed through a multi-scale feature extraction module after a series of pre-processing to expand the perceptive field and enhance the perception ability on features. Subsequently, useful feature information was then extracted by stacking multiple residual modules with channel attention to increase the accuracy of the model. Lastly, in the training stage, the Huber loss function was adopted to stabilize the iterative process and obtain the optimal solution of the model. On a subset of the MIMIC dataset, the errors of both SBP and DBP predicted by the model met the AAMI standards, while the accuracy of DBP reached Grade A of the BHS standard, and the accuracy of SBP almost reached Grade A of the BHS standard. The proposed method verifies the potential and feasibility of PPG signals combined with deep neural networks in the field of continuous BP monitoring. Furthermore, the method is easy to deploy in portable devices, and it is more consistent with the future trend of wearable blood-pressure-monitoring devices (e.g., smartphones and smartwatches).

In this work, a new method has been developed to detect adulterations in avocado oil by combining optical images and their treatment with deep learning algorithms. For this purpose, samples of avocado oil adulterated with refined olive oil at concentrations from 1 % to 15 % (v/v) were prepared. Two groups of images of the different samples were obtained, one in conditions considered as bright and the other as dark, obtaining a total of 1,800 photographs. To obtain these images under both conditions, the exposure or shutter speed of the camera was modified (1/30 s for light conditions and 1/500 s for dark conditions). A residual neural network (ResNet34) was used to process and classify the images obtained. A different model was developed for each condition, and during blind validation of the models, ∼95 % of the images were correctly classified.

OBJECTIVE: Tongue diagnosis is one of the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), but traditional tongue diagnosis is affected by many factors, and its differential diagnosis results are not widely recognized. The appearance of tongue diagnosis instruments is the product of the modernization of tongue diagnosis, and it has standard and objective advantages in clinical practice. In this study, based on standard tongue images, a tongue image dataset and detection model were constructed. And based on the deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm and visual question answering technology, a human-computer interaction intelligent health detector for tongue image recognition is constructed.
METHODS: In this research, 1420 tongue images were collected. After screening, experts judged them, and annotated the tongue images to form tongue image datasets. Then the artificial intelligence network framework based on deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN), that is, ResNet34, is applied to this dataset to automatically extract image features and realize tongue images classification. Finally, the VGG16 network framework is applied to the dataset to compare the classification model and compare with the classification effect.
RESULTS: In this paper, relevant datasets were formed by collating the tongue images collected by annotation, which verified that the ResNet34 architecture could better perform the task of tooth mark and tongue feature recognition. Compared with similar learning tasks in existing studies, the accuracy of the teeth-printed tongue recognition model proposed in this study is more than 10% higher, which indicates that the CNN algorithm can distinguish teeth-printed tongue more accurately and effectively. At the same time, using datasets and models combined with visual question and answer technology, an AI health detector for TCM tongue image identification is designed, which can make health assessments and give suggestions to users.
CONCLUSIONS: This study adopts a convolutional neural network model based on deep learning, which can reduce the extraction of tongue features more quickly and conveniently. At the same time, the model architecture has excellent performance and strong generalization ability and is more accurate in judging users\' health status.

An artificial intelligence-based method to rapidly detect adulterated lentil flour in real time is presented. Mathematical models based on convolutional neural networks and transfer learning (viz., ResNet34) have been trained to identify lentil flour samples that contain trace levels of wheat (gluten) or pistachios (nuts), aiding two relevant populations (people with celiac disease and with nut allergies, respectively). The technique is based on the analysis of photographs taken by a simple reflex camera and further classification into groups assigned to adulterant type and amount (up to 50 ppm). Two different algorithms were trained, one per adulterant, using a total of 2200 images for each neural network. Using blind sets of data (10% of the collected images; initially and randomly separated) to evaluate the performance of the models led to strong performances, as 99.1% of lentil flour samples containing ground pistachio were correctly classified, while 96.4% accuracy was reached to classify the samples containing wheat flour.
