Prostate segmentation and lesions classification in CT images using Mask R-CNN

Purpose: Non-cancerous prostate lesions such as prostate calcification, prostate enlargement, and prostate inflammation cause too many problems for men’s health. This research proposes a novel approach, a combination of image processing techniques and deep learning methods for classification and segmentation of the prostate in CT-scan images by considering the experienced physicians’ reports. ...

Cascade R-CNN: Delving into High Quality Object Detection

In object detection, an intersection over union (IoU) threshold is required to define positives and negatives. An object detector, trained with low IoU threshold, e.g. 0.5, usually produces noisy detections. However, detection performance tends to degrade with increasing the IoU thresholds. Two main factors are responsible for this: 1) overfitting during training, due to exponentially vanishing...

Detecting Invasive Plants Using Hyperspectral and High Resolution Satellite Images

The rapid spread of nonnative plant species have caused considerable negative impact to the biodiversity and ecosystems in Taiwan. To better unders tand the status and to suppor t researchers and decision makers to develop strategies and remedies for this problem, it is necessary to obtain accurate spatial information and the progression about the invasions of foreign species into native ecocom...

Classification of Ultra-high Resolution Images using Soft Computing

The main objective of this paper is to use a computational intelligence algorithm for preparing a mapping map that categorizes different patterns of identification of infected areas and changes in radiation pollution. In this paper, the use of the fuzzy inference system has been proposed to determine the degree of radiation contamination in the regions. The study uses ultra-high resolution spec...
