High-dimensional Bayesian variable selection problems are often solved using computationally expensive Markov Chain Montle Carlo (MCMC) techniques. Recently, a Bayesian variable selection technique was developed for continuous data using…

The incidence rate for skin cancer has been steadily increasing throughout the world, leading to it being a serious issue. Diagnosis at an early stage has the potential to drastically reduce the harm caused by the disease, however, the…

A new tool providing material contrast control in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is demonstrated. The approach is based on deep-UV illumination during SEM imaging and delivers a novel material based contrast as well as higher resolution…

Foreground segmentation algorithms aim segmenting moving objects from the background in a robust way under various challenging scenarios. Encoder-decoder type deep neural networks that are used in this domain recently perform impressive…

Environmental Sound Classification (ESC) is an important and challenging problem, and feature representation is a critical and even decisive factor in ESC. Feature representation ability directly affects the accuracy of sound…

Due to its inferior characteristics, an observed (noisy) image's direct use gives rise to poor segmentation results. Intuitively, using its noise-free image can favorably impact image segmentation. Hence, the accurate estimation of the…

Skin tone as a demographic bias and inconsistent human labeling poses challenges in dermatology AI. We take another angle to investigate color contrast's impact, beyond skin tones, on malignancy detection in skin disease datasets: We…

Compressing and expanding (companding) HDR computerized tomography (CT) images to a single LDR image is still a relevant challenge. Besides the general need for simplification of the window setting method for the purpose of diagnosis, there…

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a technique used to analyze and diagnose the problem defined by images like cancer or tumor in a brain. Physicians require good contrast images for better treatment purpose as it contains maximum…

Expectation Maximization (EM) is the standard method to learn Gaussian mixtures. Yet its classic, centralized form is often infeasible, due to privacy concerns and computational and communication bottlenecks. Prior work dealt with data…

The rising incidence of skin cancer, coupled with limited public awareness and a shortfall in clinical expertise, underscores an urgent need for advanced diagnostic aids. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a promising tool in this…

Despite the rapid development of computational hardware, the treatment of large and high dimensional data sets is still a challenging problem. This paper provides a twofold contribution to the topic. First, we propose a Gaussian Mixture…

We report resolution enhancement in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images using a generative adversarial network. We demonstrate the veracity of this deep learning-based super-resolution technique by inferring unresolved features in…

In this paper, the effectiveness and capability of convolutional neural networks have been studied in the classification of 8 skin diseases. Different pre-trained state-of-the-art architectures (DenseNet 201, ResNet 152, Inception v3,…

Skin lesion segmentation is one of the crucial steps for an efficient non-invasive computer-aided early diagnosis of melanoma. This paper investigates how color information, besides saliency, can be used to determine the pigmented lesion…

Targeted color-dots with varying shapes and sizes in images are first exhaustively identified, and then their multiscale 2D geometric patterns are extracted for testing spatial uniformness in a progressive fashion. Based on color theory in…

Contrast enhancement (CE) forensics has always been ofconcern to image forensics community. It can provide aneffective tool for recovering image history and identifyingtampered images. Although several CE forensic algorithmshave been…

This paper presents a novel approach for background/foreground segmentation of RGBD data with the Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM). We first start by the background subtraction from the colour and depth images separately. The foregrounds…

Deep learning models have achieved great success in automating skin lesion diagnosis. However, the ethnic disparity in these models' predictions, where lesions on darker skin types are usually underrepresented and have lower diagnosis…

Skin lesion segmentation is key for early skin cancer detection. Challenges in automatic segmentation from dermoscopic images include variations in color, texture, and artifacts of indistinct lesion boundaries. Deep learning methods like…
