Early identification not only improves treatment options but also significantly improves survival rates. Our research introduces an innovative ensemble method that synergistically combines the strengths of four state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks (CNNs): EfficientNet, AlexNet, ResNet, and DenseNet. These networks were chosen for their architectural advances and proven efficacy in image classification tasks, particularly in medical imaging. Each network within our ensemble is uniquely optimized: EfficientNet is fine-tuned with customized scaling to address dataset specifics; AlexNet employs a variable dropout mechanism to reduce overfitting; ResNet benefits from learnable weighted skip connections for better gradient flow; and DenseNet uses selective connectivity to balance computational efficiency and feature extraction. This ensembling strategy combines the predictive output of multiple CNNs, each trained with an individually optimized network, to enhance the ensemble’s overall diagnostic performance. This provides higher precision and stability than any model and shows outstanding performance in the early stage of breast cancer with a precision of up to 94.6%, sensitivity of 92.4%, specificity of 96.1%, and area under the curve (AUC) of 98.0%. This ensemble framework indicated a leap in the early diagnosis of breast cancer as it is a powerful tool that combines several state-of-the-art techniques, hence providing better results.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14089,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Intelligent Systems","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/5564649","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142524707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method integrates an entropy-weighting mechanism for improved image quality and entropy, along with a reverse diffusion model to address the detail loss in total variation regularization and refine the enhancement process. Furthermore, we utilize long short-term memory networks for the learning reverse process and the simulation of image degradation, based on a thermodynamics-based nonlinear anisotropic diffusion model.

To address this issue, this study introduces a new English speech dataset specifically designed for emotion analysis and recognition. This dataset consists of 5503 voices from over 60 English speakers in different emotional states. Furthermore, to enhance emotion analysis and recognition, fast Fourier transform (FFT), short-time Fourier transform (STFT), mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) are employed for feature extraction from the speech data. Utilizing these algorithms, the spectrum images of the speeches are obtained, forming four datasets consisting of different speech feature images. Furthermore, to evaluate the dataset, 16 classification models and 19 detection algorithms are selected.

To address this issue, we propose a novel approach named TAE-RWP, wherein adversarial perturbations in AEs are treated as tools for IP verification. To enable the traceability of AEs, we introduce varying degrees of warping to the adversarial perturbations within the AEs of authorized users, utilizing the warping degree as a traceable feature. To further strengthen traceability, we adopt a technique named “random warping” to maintain the resilience of adversarial perturbations against distortions, and employ a strategy named “noise mode” to improve the verification model’s capacity to recognize distortion features.

The data come from the same task in multimodal learning, and thus, the inherent structures among all modalities should be hold, which is called the consistency principle. However, each modality contains unique information that can be used to repair the incompleteness of other modalities. It is called the complementarity principle. To follow the above two principles, we designed a multimodal graph–regularized term and a sparse projection matrix–regularized term. The former aims to preserve the within-modal structural and between-modal relationships, while the latter aims to richly use the complementarity information hidden in multimodal data. Further, we follow the multimodal subspace (MS) SVDD architecture and use two regularized terms to regularize SVDD. Consequently, a novel OCC method for multimodal data is proposed, called the consistency and complementarity jointly regularized subspace SVDD (CCS-SVDD).
