Classification of Microscopic Malaria Parasitized Images Using Deep Learning Feature Fusion

An infectious disease that causes a chronic and potentially life-threatening infection caused by microorganisms of the Plasmodium class, is malaria, or malarial disease. It is critical to detect the presence of Malaria parasites as early as possible to ensure that antimalarial treatment is adequate to cure the particular type of Plasmodium. This is to reduce death rates and to focus on various infections in the event of an adverse outcome. The purpose of this study was to develop an artificial intelligence approach capable of separating parasitized erythrocytes from normal basophilic erythrocytes as well as platelets overlying the red blood cells to overcome the high cost of Ma-laria diagnostic equipment. The tone and texture characteristics of erythrocyte images were extracted using histo-gram thresholds and watershed methods, and then fused with Squeeze Net and ShuffleNet algorithms. The measures included planning, preparing, approving, and testing Deep Convolution Neural Network Segmentation without preparation using a graphic processor unit. A total of 96 percent accuracy and specificity was obtained for the position of malaria in red blood cells based on the results of all of the tests. It has been demonstrated that deep learning can be effective in the field of clinical pathology. This provides new directions for development as well as increasing awareness of researchers in this field.
