In the first step, AIS is used to segment the three main brain tissues white matter, gray matter, and cerebrospinal fluid. Then the features were extracted and SVM is applied to detect the multiple sclerosis lesions based on SMO training algorithm. The experiments conducted on 3D brain MR images produce satisfying results. KeywoRDS 3D Brain MRI, AIS, Detection, Lesions, Multiple Sclerosis, Segmentation, SMO, SVM INTRoDUCTIoN Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune chronic disease of the central nervous system especially the brain, the optic nerves and the spinal cord. The symptoms are very variable, numbness of a limb, blurred vision, loss of equilibrium...etc (Xavier et al, 2012). Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can accurately visualize and locate plaques in both the brain and spinal cord. Depending on the sequences used, they appear white (in technical terms, we speak of “hypersignals”) or black (“hyposignals”). In 2019, more than 2.4 million people suffer from multiple sclerosis .The research is focused on finding innovative treatments to relieve people with MS. The goal of this study is to detect abnormalities of gray matter and white matter in MS from 3D RM Image Many methods have been proposed to automatically segment lesions since manual segmentation requires expert knowledge, is time consuming and is subject to intraand interexpert variability (Vera-Olmos et al, 2016). Veronese et al (Veronese et al, 2013) proposed a fuzzy classification algorithm that uses spatial information for MS lesion segmentation. In addition to spatial information, standard deviation dependent filtering is incorporated into the algorithm to provide better noise immunity. Also, fuzzy logic is adjusted to be more selective on vertical elliptical objects instead of circular objects since most plates are in this form. Saba et al (Saba et al, 2018) presented a method of segmentation of MS lesions beginning with contour detection using the canny algorithm, and then a modified blurred mean c algorithm is applied International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence Volume 15 • Issue 2 • April-June 2021 98 to increase the accuracy of the diagnosis.

They used two generic configurable components: a central processing module that locates areas of the brain that may form MS lesions, and a postprocessing module that adds or removes these areas for more accurate data. Based on these configurable modules, single-view segmentation and multiple-section view pipelines are provided to address the limitations found in segmentation r","PeriodicalId":43637,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence","volume":"120 1","pages":"110-123"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76040338","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}

Usually, a motion trajectory consists of a set of coordinates, which is called a raw trajectory. In this paper, the authors first use vectors for some artificially constructed global features, such as the mean discrete curvature and standard deviation of acceleration, to represent the raw trajectory data, and then apply a multiset canonical correlation analysis method to extract latent features from the artificially constructed features. The performance of the latent features is then measured by evaluating the accuracy and F1 score of a gradient boosting decision tree model for different datasets, which include paired sample datasets and unpaired sample datasets. The experimental results show that the classifier performance for MCCA features is much better than that obtained for the artificially constructed features, such as that for the motion distance or mean velocity.","PeriodicalId":43637,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence","volume":"59 1","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79919082","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}

The growth organ of the tree is mapped into the coding of the tree growth algorithm, and the entire tree is formed by selecting the fastest growing individual to form the next level of the tree. When the tree growth reaches a certain level, the individual code of the shoot tip is added to enhance the search ability of the individual shoot tip in the growth space of the entire tree. This method achieves a near-optimal solution. The experimental results were compared with the optimization results of the genetic algorithm and the ant colony algorithm using the classic optimization function.

In CBIR the image is used as a query to find the most similar images. One of the biggest challenges in CBIR system is to fill up the “semantic gap,” which is the gap between low-level visual features and the high-level semantic concepts of an image. In this paper, the authors have proposed a saliency-based CBIR system that utilizes the semantic information of image and users search intention. In the proposed model, firstly a significant region is identified with the help of method structured matrix decomposition (SMD) using high-level priors that highlight the prominent area of the image. After that, a two-dimensional principal component analysis (2DPCA) is used as a feature, which is compact and effectively used for fast recognition. Experiment results are validated on different image dataset having an extensive collection of semantic classifications.","PeriodicalId":43637,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88956141","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}
