This paper presents a color image noise removal technique that employs a cellular neural network (CNN) based on hybrid linear matrix inequality (LMI) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). For designing templates of CNN, the Lyapunov stability theorem is applied to derive the criterion for the uniqueness and global asymptotic stability of the CNN’s equilibrium point. The template design is characterized as a standard LMI problem, and the parameters of templates are optimized by PSO. The input templates are obtained by employing the CNN’s property of saturation nonlinearity, which can be used to eliminate noise from arbitrary corrupted images. The demonstrated examples are compared favorably with other available methods, which illustrate the better performance of the proposed LMI-PSO-CNN methodology.

This paper proposes the median-type filters with an impulse noise detector using the decision tree and the particle swarm optimization, for the recovery of the corrupted gray-level images by impulse noises. It first utilizes an impulse noise detector to determine whether a pixel is corrupted or not. If yes, the filtering component in this method is triggered to filter it. Otherwise, the pixel is kept unchanged. In this work, the impulse noise detector is an adaptive hybrid detector which is constructed by integrating 10 impulse noise detectors based on the decision tree and the particle swarm optimization. Subsequently, the restoring process in this method respectively utilizes the median filter, the rank ordered mean filter, and the progressive noise-free ordered median filter to restore the corrupted pixel. Experimental results demonstrate that this method achieves high performance for detecting and restoring impulse noises, and outperforms the existing well-known methods.

Abstract The main objective of this study is to progress the structure and segment the images from hemorrhage recognition in retinal fundus images in ostensible. The abnormal bleeding of blood vessels in the retina which is the membrane in the back of the eye is called retinal hemorrhage. The image folders are deliberated, and the filter technique is utilized to decrease the images specifically adaptive median filter in our suggested proposal. Gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), grey level run length matrix (GLRLM) and Scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) feature skills are present after filtrating the feature withdrawal. After this, the organization technique is performed, specifically artificial neural network with fuzzy interface system (ANFIS) method; with the help of this organization, exaggerated and non-affected images are categorized. Affected hemorrhage images are transpired for segmentation procedure, and in this exertion, threshold optimization is measured with numerous optimization methods; on the basis of this, particle swarm optimization is accomplished in improved manner. Consequently, the segmented images are projected, and the sensitivity is great when associating with accurateness and specificity in the MATLAB platform.


Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common joint disorder which is debility seen in elderly & overweight people which affects the cartilage of bone joints like knee, feet, hip, and spine. In OA usually, cartilage is ruptured due to the kneading of bones with each other which will end up causing severe pain. In this condition, it is necessary to analyze the severity of OA which involves various medical imaging and clinical examination techniques. In this paper, automated analysis and detection of OA are proposed by calculating the thickness of cartilage which also helps to effectively detect and analyze the abnormalities in bone structures. Where we have considered various knee X-ray images. Initially, preprocessing and noise removal is performed. Further by implementing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) segmentation and thresholding, the specified knee region is cropped and analyzed to calculate the thickness of cartilage to detect the presence of OA.

The objective of this paper is to explore an expedient image segmentation algorithm for medical images to curtail the physicians’ interpretation of computer tomography (CT) scan images. Modern medical imaging modalities generate large images that are extremely grim to analyze manually. The consequences of segmentation algorithms rely on the exactitude and convergence time. At this moment, there is a compelling necessity to explore and implement new evolutionary algorithms to solve the problems associated with medical image segmentation. Lung cancer is the frequently diagnosed cancer across the world among men. Early detection of lung cancer navigates towards apposite treatment to save human lives. CT is one of the modest medical imaging methods to diagnose the lung cancer. In the present study, the performance of five optimization algorithms, namely, k-means clustering, k-median clustering, particle swarm optimization, inertia-weighted particle swarm optimization, and guaranteed convergence particle swarm optimization (GCPSO), to extract the tumor from the lung image has been implemented and analyzed. The performance of median, adaptive median, and average filters in the preprocessing stage was compared, and it was proved that the adaptive median filter is most suitable for medical CT images. Furthermore, the image contrast is enhanced by using adaptive histogram equalization. The preprocessed image with improved quality is subject to four algorithms. The practical results are verified for 20 sample images of the lung using MATLAB, and it was observed that the GCPSO has the highest accuracy of 95.89%.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a major cause of vision loss and it raises a major issue among diabetes people. DR considerably affect the financial condition of the society specially in medicinal sector. Once proper treatment is given to the DR patients, roughly 90% of patients can be saved from vision loss. So, it is needed to develop a DR classification model for classifying the stages and severity level of DR to offer better treatment. This article develops a novel Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm based Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Model called PSO-CNN model to detect and classify DR from the color fundus images. The proposed PSO-CNN model comprises three stages namely preprocessing, feature extraction and classification. Initially, preprocessing is carried out as a noise removal process to discard the noise present in the input image. Then, feature extraction process using PSO-CNN model is applied to extract the useful subset of features. Finally, the filtered features are given as input to the decision tree (DT) model for classifying the set of DR images. The simulation of the PSO-CNN model takes place using a benchmark DR database and the experimental outcome stated that the PSO-CNN model has outperformed all the compared methods in a significant way. The outcome of the simulation process indicated that the PSO-CNN model has offered maximum results.
