Abstract Image fusion is a technique used to combine essential information from two or more source images into a single, more informative output image. The resulting fused image contains more meaningful details than any individual source image. This study focuses on multi-focus image fusion, a crucial area in image processing. Due to the limited depth of field of optical lenses, it is often challenging to capture an image where all areas are in focus simultaneously. As a result, multi-focus image fusion plays a key role in integrating and extracting the necessary details from different focal regions.… More >

Abstract Sonic Hedgehog Medulloblastoma (SHH-MB) is one of the four primary molecular subgroups of Medulloblastoma. It is estimated to be responsible for nearly one-third of all MB cases. Using transcriptomic and DNA methylation profiling techniques, new developments in this field determined four molecular subtypes for SHH-MB. SHH-MB subtypes show distinct DNA methylation patterns that allow their discrimination from overlapping subtypes and predict clinical outcomes. Class overlapping occurs when two or more classes share common features, making it difficult to distinguish them as separate. Using the DNA methylation dataset, a novel classification technique is presented to address… More >

Abstract Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being increasingly used for diagnosing Vision-Threatening Diabetic Retinopathy (VTDR), which is a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness worldwide. However, previous automated VTDR detection methods have mainly relied on manual feature extraction and classification, leading to errors. This paper proposes a novel VTDR detection and classification model that combines different models through majority voting. Our proposed methodology involves preprocessing, data augmentation, feature extraction, and classification stages. We use a hybrid convolutional neural network-singular value decomposition (CNN-SVD) model for feature extraction and selection and an improved SVM-RBF with a Decision Tree More >

Abstract This study aimed to deal with three challenges: robustness, imperceptibility, and capacity in the image watermarking field. To reach a high capacity, a novel similarity-based edge detection algorithm was developed that finds more edge points than traditional techniques. The colored watermark image was created by inserting a randomly generated message on the edge points detected by this algorithm. To ensure robustness and imperceptibility, watermark and cover images were combined in the high-frequency subbands using Discrete Wavelet Transform and Singular Value Decomposition. In the watermarking stage, the watermark image was weighted by the adaptive scaling factor More >

Abstract The security of digital images transmitted via the Internet or other public media is of the utmost importance. Image encryption is a method of keeping an image secure while it travels across a non-secure communication medium where it could be intercepted by unauthorized entities. This study provides an approach to color image encryption that could find practical use in various contexts. The proposed method, which combines four chaotic systems, employs singular value decomposition and a chaotic sequence, making it both secure and compression-friendly. The unified average change intensity, the number of pixels’ change rate, information More >

Abstract Today, securing devices connected to the internet is challenging as security threats are generated through various sources. The protection of cyber-physical systems from external attacks is a primary task. The presented method is planned on the prime motive of detecting cybersecurity attacks and their impacted parameters. The proposed architecture employs the LYSIS dataset and formulates Multi Variant Exploratory Data Analysis (MEDA) through Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) for the extraction of unique parameters.

Abstract The low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique has been used to probe the pore size distribution and the fluid composition in geophysical prospecting and related fields. However, the speed and accuracy of the existing numerical inversion methods are still challenging due to the ill-posed nature of the first kind Fredholm integral equation and the contamination of the noises. This paper proposes a novel inversion algorithm to accelerate the convergence and enhance the precision using empirical truncated singular value decompositions (TSVD) and the linearized Bregman iteration. The L1 penalty term is applied to construct the objective More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Securing medical data while transmission on the network is required because it is sensitive and life-dependent data. Many methods are used for protection, such as Steganography, Digital Signature, Cryptography, and Watermarking. This paper introduces a novel robust algorithm that combines discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and singular value decomposition (SVD) digital image-watermarking algorithms. The host image is decomposed using a two-dimensional DWT (2D-DWT) to approximate low-frequency sub-bands in the embedding process. Then the sub-band low-high (LH) is decomposed using 2D-DWT to four new sub-bands. The resulting sub-band low-high (LH₁) is decomposed using 2D-DWT… More >

Abstract Digital image steganography technique based on hiding the secret data behind of cover image in such a way that it is not detected by the human visual system. This paper presents an image scrambling method that is very useful for grayscale secret images. In this method, the secret image decomposes in three parts based on the pixel's threshold value. The division of the color image into three parts is very easy based on the color channel but in the grayscale image, it is difficult to implement. The proposed image scrambling method is implemented in image More >
