Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a chronic and progressive neurological disease that mostly shakes and compromises the motor system of the human brain. Patients with PD can face resting tremors, loss of balance, bradykinesia, and rigidity problems. Complex patterns of PD, i.e., with relevance to other neurological diseases and minor changes in brain structure, make the diagnosis of this disease a challenge and cause inaccuracy of about 25% in the diagnostics. The research community utilizes different machine learning techniques for diagnosis using handcrafted features. This paper proposes a computer-aided diagnostic system using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to diagnose PD. CNN is one of the most suitable models to extract and learn the essential features of a problem. The dataset is obtained from Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), which provides different datasets (benchmarks), such as T2-weighted MRI for PD and other healthy controls (HC). The mid slices are collected from each MRI. Further, these slices are registered for alignment. Since the PD can be found in substantia nigra (i.e., the midbrain), the midbrain region of the registered T2-weighted MRI slice is selected using the freehand region of interest technique with a 33 × 33 sized window. Several experiments have been carried out to ensure the validity of the CNN. The standard measures, such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve, are used to evaluate the proposed system. The evaluation results show that CNN provides better accuracy than machine learning techniques, such as naive Bayes, decision tree, support vector machine, and artificial neural network.

Abstract: The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has revolutionized Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) by interconnecting smart medical devices. These devices generate a large amount of data without human intervention. Learning-based sophisticated models are required to extract meaningful information from this massive surge of data. In this context, Deep Neural Network (DNN) has been proven to be a powerful tool for disease detection. Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is considered the leading cause of death disease, with a death toll of 180,000 per year in the US alone. It appears due to a blood clot in pulmonary arteries, which blocks the blood supply to the lungs or a part of the lung. An early diagnosis and treatment of PE could reduce the mortality rate. Doctors and radiologists prefer Computed Tomography (CT) scans as a first-hand tool, which contain 200 to 300 images of a single study for diagnosis. Most of the time, it becomes difficult for a doctor and radiologist to maintain concentration going through all the scans and giving the correct diagnosis, resulting in a misdiagnosis or false diagnosis. Given this, there is a need for an automatic Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system to assist doctors and radiologists in decision-making. To develop such a system, in this paper, we proposed a deep learning framework based on DenseNet201 to classify PE into nine classes in CT scans. We utilized DenseNet201 as a feature extractor and customized fully connected decision-making layers. The model was trained on the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA)-Pulmonary Embolism Detection Challenge (2020) Kaggle dataset and achieved promising results of 88%, 88%, 89%, and 90% in terms of the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and Area Under the Curve (AUC), respectively.
