It successfully tracked 30 cycles of a protrusive excursion, left lateral excursion, and 40 mm of jaw opening on a semi-adjustable articulator. The standard error of the tracking accuracy was reported as 0.1377 mm, 0.0449 mm, and 0.9196 mm, with corresponding r2 values of 0.98, 1.00, and 1.00, respectively.

While dysplasia has been recognised in practically all canine breeds, it is much more common and of concern in medium and large dog breeds with rapid development. Dysplasia in predisposed breeds, particularly the German Shepherd, is the object of screening based on systematic radiological control in some countries. Our collected dataset comprises 507 X-ray images of dogs affected by hip dysplasia (HD). These images were meticulously evaluated using six Deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models. Following an extensive analysis of the top-performing models, VGG16 emerged as the leader, achieving remarkable accuracy, recall, and precision scores of 98.32%, 98.35%, and 98.44%, respectively.

The colouration model could modify to enhance the colour of lesions observed in diabetic retinopathy (DR). The proposed algorithm could improve the effect of cataracts on fundus images and provided good results when the density of the cataract was less than grade 2.

Three feature selection methods, namely the Genetic Algorithm (GA), t-test, and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are used. In the classification phase, three machine learning algorithms (kNN, multiSVM, and Naive Bayes) are explored. Evaluation metrics like accuracy, AUC, precision, recall, F1-score, MCC, Dice coefficient, and Jaccard coefficient are used for performance assessment. Training and testing accuracy are assessed for the three classes. The system is evaluated using nine algorithm combinations, producing the following AUC values: GA+kNN (0.93), GA+multiSVM (0.88), GA+NB (0.91), t-test+kNN (0.91), t-test+multiSVM (0.86), t-test+NB (0.89), PSO+kNN (0.89), PSO+multiSVM (0.85), and PSO+NB (0.86).

It is characterised by the progressive impairment to the blood vessels with the increase of glucose level in the blood. The grading efficiency still finds challenging because of the existence of intra-class variations and imbalanced data distributions on the retinal images. Traditional machine learning techniques utilise hand-engineered features for classification of the affected retinal images. As convolutional neural network produces better image classification accuracy in many medical images, this work utilises the CNN-based feature extraction method. This feature has been used to build Gaussian mixture model (GMM) for each class that maps the CNN features to log-likelihood dimensional vector spaces. Since the Gaussian mixture model can be realised as a mixture of both parametric and nonparametric density models and has their flexibility in capturing different data distributions, probabilistic outputs, interpretability, efficient parameter estimation, and robustness to outliers, the proposed model aimed to obtain and provide a smooth approximation of the underlying distribution of features for training the model. Then these vector spaces are trained by the SVM classifier. Experimental results illustrate the efficacy of the proposed model with accuracy 86.3% and 89.1%, respectively.KEYWORDS: Retinal imagesCNN feature extractionsupport vector machineGaussian mixture model Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationNotes on contributorsR.

Here, we propose a generalised lightweight solution that exploits super-resolution and scalable vector graphics and uses a small-scale UNet as the baseline framework to segment different organs in MR and CT data. We selected the UNet since many researchers use it as the baseline, modify it in their proposal, and perform an ablation study to show the effectiveness of the proposed modification. First, we downsample the input 2D CT slices by bicubic interpolation. Using the architecture of the conventional UNet, we reduce the size of the network’s input, and the number of layers and filters to construct a lightweight UNet. The network segments the low-resolution images and prepares the mask of an organ. Then, we upscale the boundary of the output mask by the Support Vector Graphics technique to obtain the final border. This design reduces the number of parameters and the run-time by a factor of two. We segmented several tissues to prove the stability of our method to the type of organ.
