{"title":"Modified Anam-Net Based Lightweight Deep Learning Model for Retinal Vessel Segmentation","authors":"Syed Irtaza Haider, Khursheed Aurangzeb, Musaed A. Alhussein","doi":"10.32604/cmc.2022.025479","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.32604/cmc.2022.025479","url":null,"abstract":"The accurate segmentation of retinal vessels is a challenging task due to the presence of various pathologies as well as the low-contrast of thin vessels and non-uniform illumination. In recent years, encoder-decoder networks have achieved outstanding performance in retinal vessel segmentation at the cost of high computational complexity. To address the aforementioned challenges and to reduce the computational complexity, we propose a lightweight convolutional neural network (CNN)-based encoder-decoder deep learning model for accurate retinal vessels segmentation. The proposed deep learning model consists of encoder-decoder architecture along with bottleneck layers that consist of depth-wise squeezing, followed by full-convolution, and finally depth-wise stretching. The inspiration for the proposed model is taken from the recently developed Anam-Net model, which was tested on CT images for COVID-19 identification. For our lightweight model, we used a stack of two 3 x 3 convolution layers (without spatial pooling in between) instead of a single 3 x 3 convolution layer as proposed in Anam-Net to increase the receptive field and to reduce the trainable parameters. The proposed method includes fewer filters in all convolutional layers than the original Anam-Net and does not have an increasing number of filters for decreasing resolution. These modifications do not compromise on the segmentation accuracy, but they do make the architecture significantly lighter in terms of the number of trainable parameters and computation time. The proposed architecture has comparatively fewer parameters (1.01M) than Anam-Net (4.47M), U-Net (31.05M), SegNet (29.50M), and most of the other recent works. The proposed model does not require any problem-specific pre- or post-processing, nor does it rely on handcrafted features. In addition, the attribute of being efficient in terms of segmentation accuracy as well as lightweight makes the proposed method a suitable candidate to be used in the screening platforms at the point of care. We evaluated our proposed model on open-access datasets namely, DRIVE, STARE, and CHASE_DB. The experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms several state-of-the-art methods, such as U-Net and its variants, fully convolutional network (FCN), SegNet, CCNet, ResWNet, residual connection-based encoder-decoder network (RCED-Net), and scale-space approx. network (SSANet) in terms of {dice coefficient, sensitivity (SN), accuracy (ACC), and the area under the ROC curve (AUC)} with the scores of {0.8184, 0.8561, 0.9669, and 0.9868} on the DRIVE dataset, the scores of {0.8233, 0.8581, 0.9726, and 0.9901} on the STARE dataset, and the scores of {0.8138, 0.8604, 0.9752, and 0.9906} on the CHASE_DB dataset. Additionally, we perform cross-training experiments on the DRIVE and STARE datasets. The result of this experiment indicates the generalization ability and robustness of the proposed model.","PeriodicalId":329824,"journal":{"name":"Computers, Materials & Continua","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126567256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we focus on the development of public transportation system using Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) along with the limitation of personal vehicles using sharing economy model. The SUT Smart Transit is utilized as a major public transportation system, while MoreSai@SUT (electric motorcycle services) is a minor public transportation system in this work. They are called Multi-Mode Transportation system as a combination. Moreover, a Vehicle to Network (V2N) is used for developing the Multi-Mode Transportation system in the campus. Due to equipping vehicles with On Board Unit (OBU) and 4G LTE modules, the real time speed and locations are transmitted to the cloud. The data is then applied in the proposed mathematical model for the estimation of Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA). In terms of vehicle classifications and counts, we deployed CCTV cameras, and the recorded videos are analyzed by using You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm. The simulation and measurement results of SUT Smart Transit and MoreSai@SUT before the covid-19 pandemic are discussed. Contrary to the existing researches, the proposed system is implemented in the real environment. The final results unveil the attractiveness and satisfaction of users. Also, due to the proposed system, the CO2 gas gets reduced when Multi-Mode Transportation is implemented practically in the campus.","PeriodicalId":329824,"journal":{"name":"Computers, Materials & Continua","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115382237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
