Skin tumour detection plays a key factor in medical research. Nowadays, tumour detection process is of crucial importance as the number of persons affected is increasing substantially. The aim of this research work is to develop a new approach for efficient image enhancement and tumour detection from other unaffected regions on computed tomographic skin images. This work is mainly related to medical application methods on computed tomography (CT) skin tumour images that have been designed and implemented efficiently. The initial method, which was based on the quality of image, enhanced the medical image performance. Normally, these images are very noise sensitive and create difficulty in handling procedures. Proper care has to be taken which involves the introduction of pre-processing algorithms like enhancement techniques and filters. According to this, Anisotropic Diffusion Filtering (ADF) followed by Recursive Mean Separate Histogram Equalization (RMSHE) algorithm was introduced to improve the contrast of tumour images. In the second method, Public Contour Metric Based Segmentation (PCMBS) Mapping and Prioritized Patch Based Region Segmentation (PPBRS) Algorithm is proposed for skin tumour segmentation. These techniques are performed in CT skin tumour image which are benign or malignant. Overall accuracy of 98.5% and 95.4% is obtained for various benign and malignant tumours, respectively, in MATLAB 2018a software.

Linearization of transducer characteristic plays a vital role in electronic instrumentation because all transducers have outputs nonlinearly related to the physical variables they sense. If the transducer output is nonlinear, it will produce a whole assortment of problems. Transducers rarely possess a perfectly linear transfer characteristic, but always have some degree of non-linearity over their range of operation. Attempts have been made by many researchers to increase the range of linearity of transducers. This paper presents a method to compensate nonlinearity of Linear Variable Displacement Transducer (LVDT) based on Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) method, Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) trained by Genetic Algorithm (GA). Because of the mechanism structure, LVDT often exhibit inherent nonlinear input-output characteristics. The best approximation capability of optimized ANN technique is beneficial to this. The use of this proposed method is demonstrated through computer simulation with the experimental data of two different LVDTs. The results reveal that the proposed method compensated the presence of nonlinearity in the displacement transducer with very low training time, lowest Mean Square Error (MSE) value and better linearity. This research work involves less computational complexity and it behaves a good performance for nonlinearity compensation for LVDT and has good application prospect.
