Performance Improvement of Generative Adversarial Networks to Generate Digital Color Images of Skin Diseases

     The main task of creating new digital images of different skin diseases is to increase the resolution of the specific textures and colors of each skin disease. In this paper, the performance of generative adversarial networks has been optimized to generate multicolor and histological color digital images of a variety of skin diseases (melanoma, birthmarks, and basal cell carcinomas). Two architectures for generative adversarial networks were built using two models: the first is a model for generating new images of dermatology through training processes, and the second is a discrimination model whose main task is to identify the generated digital images as either real or fake. The gray wolf swarm algorithm and the whale swarm algorithm were relied on to generate values ​​that improve the performance of GANs and insert them into the generator instead of random values, which in turn worked to reduce the loss values ​​for the generated images. Loss values ​​were adopted as a measure of optimizations for each epoch, and the fastest access time to actual digital images for each skin disease was adopted. Before the optimization operations, 50% accurate images of skin diseases were obtained; after the optimization operations, 98% accurate images of skin diseases were obtained.

Automatic Diagnosis of Coronavirus Using Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (CGAN)

     A global pandemic has emerged as a result of the widespread coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Deep learning (DL) techniques are used to diagnose COVID-19 based on many chest X-ray. Due to the scarcity of available X-ray images, the performance of DL for COVID-19 detection is lagging, underdeveloped, and suffering from overfitting. Overfitting happens when a network trains a function with an  incredibly high variance to represent the training data perfectly. Consequently, medical images lack the availability of large labeled datasets, and the annotation of medical images is expensive and time-consuming for experts. As the COVID-19 virus is an infectious disease, these datasets are scarce, and it is difficult to get large datasets

Generative Adversarial Network for Imitation Learning from Single Demonstration

Imitation learning is an effective method for training an autonomous agent to accomplish a task by imitating expert behaviors in their demonstrations. However, traditional imitation learning methods require a large number of expert demonstrations in order to learn a complex behavior. Such a disadvantage has limited the potential of imitation learning in complex tasks where the expert demonstrations are not sufficient. In order to address the problem, we propose a Generative Adversarial Network-based model which is designed to learn optimal policies using only a single demonstration. The proposed model is evaluated on two simulated tasks in comparison with other methods. The results show that our proposed model is capable of completing co

Performance Improvement for Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, we prove that our proposed localization algorithm named Improved
Accuracy Distribution localization for wireless sensor networks (IADLoc) [1] is the
best when it is compared with the other localization algorithms by introducing many
cases of studies. The IADLoc is used to minimize the error rate of localization
without any additional cost and minimum energy consumption and also
decentralized implementation. The IADLoc is a range free and also range based
localization algorithm that uses both type of antenna (directional and omnidirectional)
it allows sensors to determine their location based on the region of
intersection (ROI) when the beacon nodes send the information to the sink node and

Utilization of GIS to Generate a Digital Geotechnical Map of Baghdad City
Abstract<p>The Geographic Information System (GIS) is considered one of the most prominent programs used to collect, analyze, display, process, and produce geographic information maps for a specific purpose. It is also considered one of the modern database programs. Additionally, we can perform statistical analysis within GIS on predefined data to produce quantitative results. In this study, data was collected from more than 80 engineering projects established in Baghdad City from soil investigation reports for the projects. Geographic information systems were used to produce objective maps showing the variation in the bearing capacity of shallow foundations in the soil of Baghdad Governorate. I</p> ... Show More

Diagnosis of Malaria Infected Blood Cell Digital Images using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

     Automated medical diagnosis is an important topic, especially in detection and classification of diseases. Malaria is one of the most widespread diseases, with more than 200 million cases, according to the 2016 WHO report. Malaria is usually diagnosed using thin and thick blood smears under a microscope. However, proper diagnosis is difficult, especially in poor countries where the disease is most widespread. Therefore, automatic diagnostics helps in identifying the disease through images of red blood cells, with the use of machine learning techniques and digital image processing. This paper presents an accurate model using a Deep Convolutional Neural Network build from scratch. The paper also proposed three CNN

Optimal Color Model for Information Hidingin Color Images

In present work the effort has been put in finding the most suitable color model for the application of information hiding in color images. We test the most commonly used color models; RGB, YIQ, YUV, YCbCr1 and YCbCr2. The same procedures of embedding, detection and evaluation were applied to find which color model is most appropriate for information hiding. The new in this work, we take into consideration the value of errors that generated during transformations among color models. The results show YUV and YIQ color models are the best for information hiding in color images.

DeepFake Detection Improvement for Images Based on a Proposed Method for Local Binary Pattern of the Multiple-Channel Color Space

DeepFake is a concern for celebrities and everyone because it is simple to create. DeepFake images, especially high-quality ones, are difficult to detect using people, local descriptors, and current approaches. On the other hand, video manipulation detection is more accessible than an image, which many state-of-the-art systems offer. Moreover, the detection of video manipulation depends entirely on its detection through images. Many worked on DeepFake detection in images, but they had complex mathematical calculations in preprocessing steps, and many limitations, including that the face must be in front, the eyes have to be open, and the mouth should be open with the appearance of teeth, etc. Also, the accuracy of their counterfeit detectio

Prevalence of common skin diseases among outpatients clinic of Baghdad hospital

Abstract. Healthy skin is an important layer that gives appearance and self-confidence. The skin is affected by internal and external factors that surrounding the body. The problem of skin diseases is considered as one of the widespread diseases. The occurrence of these diseases varies from place to place depending on the nature of climate, the culture of the people, and their economic condition. A cross-sectional study of skin diseases was conducted at the dermatology centre for outpatient clinic of Baghdad hospital. The study is based on 7555 patients of all ages who are attended to this hospital in order to determine the prevalence of skin diseases. The study shows that the most prevalence skin diseases were infectious diseases with
