  • Brain Tumor Segmentation using Osprey Optimization Assisted DeepLabV3+ Model
    Riya Jacob, J. Jenkin Winston
    Journal of Cancer Research Updates, 2025
    Brain tumors are among the frequently diagnosed malignant conditions across all age groups. Accurately determining their grade has a major challenge for radiologists in clinical assessments and automatic diagnostic systems. Identifying tumor types and implementing preventive measures remains one of the most complex processes of brain tumor classification. Various Deep Learning (DL) models are proposed in the existing approaches for enhancing the accuracy of brain tumor classification. But, the challenges like training time and complexity are occurred in these works. To tackle these issues, this work presents a Enhanced DeepLabV3+ to segment and categorize brain tumor. At first, non-local means (NLM) filtering is utilized for pre-processing for reducing noise and preserving essential structural details. Then, the Enhanced DeepLabV3+ is employed for segmentation, with AlexNet is the backbone for segmentation tasks. To further refine the segmentation process, hyperparameter optimization of the DeepLabV3 architecture is conducted using the Osprey Optimization Algorithm (OOA) approach and provide significant improvements in brain tumor segmentation performance. The evaluation is performed on the Brain TCIA and Figshare datasets and achieved better accuracies of 98.97% and 99.23% respectively.

  • A miniaturized uniplanar MIMO antenna for n79/n46/millimeter-wave applications

    International Journal of Communication Systems, 2023
    This research suggests a compact uniplanar multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) with four ports for n79/n46/millimeter‐wave (mm‐wave) applications. The size of the quad MIMO is only 30 × 30 × 0.8 mm3. MIMO system consists of four identical Z‐shaped radiators and common ground on the same plane and no decoupling structures are used for isolation. The system covers the bandwidth of 1.9 GHz (4.4–6.3 GHz) with a mid‐frequency of 5.6 GHz and also covers the high‐band frequencies ranging from 18 to 30 GHz with a bandwidth of 12 GHz. The suggested quad MIMO is fabricated on an FR‐4 board, and the measured outcomes are well in line with the simulated results. An isolation value of −11 dB has been achieved for mid‐band frequency and −24 dB has been attained for mm‐wave bands. Through the value of DG = 10 dB, ECC < 0.07, TARC < −3 dB, MEG < −5 dB, and the ratio of MEG = 1 dB, uniplanar quad MIMO shows acceptable MIMO diversity performance. The entire system was evaluated for the users' hand specific absorption rate (SAR) impacts and is within the limits. After the complete analysis of the miniature quad MIMO antenna, an 8‐port, and a 16‐port uniplanar MIMO are simulated for smartphone‐sized dielectric substrates and the performances were examined. The suggested MIMO system provides an efficient single‐layer MIMO antenna to 5G smartphones with high bandwidth and low SAR. The proposed quad MIMO systems are suitable for both the sub‐6 GHz band and the mm‐wave band.

    Icspc 2023 4th International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication, 2023
    Copy move forgery is a technique for altering digital images by copying and pasting contents from the original image into different parts of the same image. It is of great importance to detect tampering as the credibility of digital images are being lost. Keypoint based methods proved to be efficient in localizingforgery. The proposed method uses SURF for feature extractionand improved forgery localization method for efficiently localizing forgery. Finally, comparison with the existing keypoint based methods to prove the efficiency of forgery localization in digital images. The tampered image is displayed as binary image for better understanding. The proposed methods efficiently localize forgery even if the tampered region is rescaled, rotated or blurred. The performance is validated by TPR, FPR and F1 score and comparing the same with the existing methods.

  • Performance-enhanced modified self-organising map for iris data classification
    J. Jenkin Winston, D. Jude Hemanth
    Expert Systems, 2021
    Biometric systems are widely used in applications such as forensics and military. Biometric authentication is a challenging and complex task. These biometric systems must be accurate for practical applications. In this era of artificial intelligence, artificial neural network‐based classifiers are widely used in biometric‐based systems. However, most of the artificial neural network‐based classifiers are less accurate and computationally complex. In this work, two modified self‐organising map (SOM) networks are proposed for iris image classification to improve the performance measures. Particle swarm optimization technique is used in the training process of conventional SOM. The experiments are carried out with conventional and modified classifiers. The proposed modified classifiers provide better performance than the conventional SOM classifier.

    Annals of Emerging Technologies in Computing, 2021
    Surveillance is described as close observation; this term is used mostly when it comes to security observations and recording. Nowadays in our daily life we see the need of security rising up with the constant increase in the world of technology and features. On the other hand, the industries and firms continuously face threats and are pushed to a situation of seeking help for their safety. Also, that there are various blind spots in the regular security cam even the operator is not in a position to identify an emergency or any such need. This work is focused on providing clarity to such issues to the respective personal. It might be an industry, an office workspace, a supermarket or even a house. This concept deals with the enhancement of the surveillance system by infusing two different frames of Thermal and sRGB obtained input and give the output of noise reduced, enhanced and more visible image.
