Abstract

Gastrointestinal (GI) tract diseases occur due to abnormalities affecting different regions of the digestive system. Diagnosing GI tract diseases typically involves methods such as endoscopy, imaging examinations, biopsy analysis, and clinical assessments. The severity and stage of the disease play a crucial role in determining the appropriate treatment plan. Medical imaging techniques are used to identify abnormal regions and assess the progression of diseases. The categorization of GI tract diseases, including ulcerative lesions, polyps, bleeding regions, inflammatory conditions, and normal tissues, is crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning. Recently, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based Deep Learning (DL) models have received greater attention due to their accuracy and flexibility. In this work, a threefold DL model is suggested to classify GI tract disease types. An improved ResNet, called Channel-Spatial Context Gating ResNet (CSCG-ResNet), is proposed for efficient feature extraction. Then, a modified Mountain Gazelle Optimizer (MGO) is proposed for feature optimization. Finally, the Quantum-inspired TabNet is proposed for multi-class categorization. The performance of the model is validated using the Kvasir dataset. The model achieves an overall accuracy of 96.75% when compared to previously proposed models.

An Explainable CBAM Enhanced DenseNet121 Framework for Multi-Class Lung Cancer Classification Using CT Scans

Due to its late identification and challenging diagnosis, lung cancer continues to be one of the top causes of death for cancer patients globally, positioning it as one of the most critical concerns. Timely identification of cancerous nodules is essential for enhancing the patient’s survival likelihood CT image analysis by hand is not very productive and significantly relies on a specialist’s expertise. In this study, we offer an autonomous lung cancer classification method based on explainable deep learning. The popular DenseNet121 network serves as the foundation for our deep learning model, which is enhanced by the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM). To improve feature extraction of significant spatial and channel properties of input data, attention techniques are added. Furthermore, our method is interpretable because the Grad-CAM technique makes it possible to explain the choices made by a machine learning system. A database of CT scans, comprising 4,598 pictures categorized by large cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and healthy lungs, was utilized. Our evaluations show the model’s effectiveness with an accuracy rate of 94.6\%.

An information bottleneck-based optimal transport network for automated diagnosis of spinal diseases.

Spinal diseases are common and widely impactful health issues in modern society. With the advancement of computer vision and medical image analysis, image-based automatic recognition and classification of spinal diseases have become research hotspots. However, existing methods often show limited performance in recognizing spinal diseases from complex or low-quality X-ray images. Their performance is easily affected by noise and exposure variations, leading to the extraction of pseudo-features unrelated to the disease. In addition, discrepancies among data sources and imaging conditions result in poor model generalization, making it difficult to adapt to cross-domain variations in clinical applications. To address these challenges, this study proposes an Information Bottleneck-based Optimal Transport Network (IBOTSpine) for automated diagnosis of spinal diseases. The IBOTSpine model introduces an information bottleneck-constrained feature extraction module that effectively captures disease-relevant structural information while suppressing irrelevant noise. Moreover, by incorporating an optimal transport mechanism, the model learns domain-invariant features, thereby reducing the distribution discrepancy between training and testing data and enhancing robustness and generalization across multi-source datasets. Specifically, the model employs a Swin Transformer as the backbone network and jointly optimizes the information bottleneck and optimal transport losses to achieve synergistic improvement in feature extraction, domain adaptation, and classification performance. Experimental results on real spinal X-ray dataset demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms existing methods in classification accuracy, generalization capability, and feature discriminability, validating its effectiveness and application potential in intelligent spinal image diagnosis.
