Artificial neural networks have found applications in various areas of medical diagnosis. The capability of neural networks to learn medical data, mining useful and complex relationships that exist between attributes has earned it a major domain in decision support systems. This paper proposes a fast automatic system for the diagnosis of disk herni...

There is an increase in death rate yearly as a result of heart diseases. One of the major factors that cause this increase is misdiagnoses on the part of medical doctors or ignorance on the part of the patient. Heart diseases can be described as any kind of disorder that affects the heart. In this research work, causes of heart diseases, the...

Mortality rate increases all over the world on a daily basis. The reason for this could be largely adduced to the increase in the number of patients with cardiovascular diseases. To worsen the case, many physicians have been known for misdiagnosis of patients reporting heart related ailment. In this paper, an intelligent system has been design whic...

There is a need for quality production at a very fast rate in food processing industry. Therefore, developing a system that can perform the visual perception of the human operator in making decisions at a very fast rate will be of great advantage. Such machine vision system will reduce human errors such as individual perception differences in deter...

The functionality of fats in food is determined by the total amount of fat crystals, measured as percent solid fat content (SFC). The SFC is a physical parameter conventionally evaluated by either nuclear magnetic resonance or differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), which is time-consuming. This study investigated the use of near-infrared (NIR) sp...

Meat quality has gained ample attention owing to increased consumer awareness and competition among poultry processors to deliver premium quality products. Nevertheless, chicken breast meat is susceptible to microbial spoilage resulting in economic and product losses. Conventional approaches such as organoleptic, aerobic plate count (APC), and mole...
Article
Beef marbling is primarily assessed in terms of the abundance and spatial distribution of visible fat flecks within Longissimus Dorsi (LD) muscle. Visual appraisal by trained professionals is the currently prevailing practice in beef marbling assessment, but it is subjective, labor-intensive, and time-consuming. Structured Illumination Reflectance...

Highlights Broiler breast meat with white striping (WS) was imaged under sinusoidally modulated structured illumination. Amplitude component (AC) images resolved better WS characteristics than direct component (DC) images. Models built on deep features classified meat samples into 2 and 3 classes according to WS severity. The AC images consistently...

Marbling is one of the most critical determinants of beef quality and primarily assessed in terms of the abundance and spatial distribution of visible fat flecks within the longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle. Visual appraisal by trained professionals is the currently prevailing practice in beef marbling assessment, but it suffers from the drawbacks of h...
Article
Volume is an important phenotype and shape descriptor of sweetpotato storage roots for postharvest quality assessment and breeding programs. The standard water displacement method for measuring fruit volume is laborious, subject to human observation errors, and often destructive. Three-dimensional (3D) imaging-based machine vision provides an alter...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
The global poultry industries have seen the prevalence of muscle myopathies including white striping (WS), woody breast, and spaghetti meat on broiler breast fillets. In the United States, the myopathies cause an estimated economic loss of hundreds of millions of dollars yearly, due to quality downgrading and low consumer acceptability. Visual insp...

In this study, we explore the use of chest X-ray data in training an optimized hybrid AI model based on a real-world dataset with limited sample size to screen patients with COVID-19. We develop a hybrid Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Random Forest (RF) model based on image features extracted through a CNN and EfficientNet B0 Transfer Learn...

Volume is an important phenotype and quality attribute of sweetpotato storage roots. Conventionally the volume of most agricultural products is measured by water displacement. This method, which requires submerging the products in a container of water and measuring the displacement of water in the container, is time-consuming and tedious. It would...
Article
Muscle myopathies or defects, such as white striping (WS), downgrade the quality of broiler meat, leading to the loss of millions of dollars annually for the U.S. poultry industry. Visual inspection is currently practiced for assessing myopathies in broiler meat, which is however prone to human evaluation error, labor-intensive, and costly. Imaging...

Muscle myopathies or defects such as white striping (WS), woody breasts (WB), and spaghetti meat, downgrade the quality of broiler meat, and cause loss of hundreds of millions of dollars annually for the United States poultry industry. Visual inspection is currently practiced for assessing myopathies in broiler meat. This method is however prone to...
Article
In agricultural image analysis, optimal model performance is keenly pursued for better fulfilling visual recognition tasks (e.g., image classification, segmentation, object detection and localization), in the presence of challenges with biological variability and unstructured environments. Large-scale, balanced and ground-truthed image datasets are...
Article
Background: Eye melanoma is deforming in the eye, growing and developing in tissues inside the middle layer of an eyeball, resulting in dark spots in the iris section of the eye, changes in size, the shape of the pupil, and vision. Objective: The current study aims to diagnose eye melanoma using a gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) for texture...

Low solar-electrical energy output conversion efficiency is a major limitation in the use of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems for power generation. This work aims at determining the degree of effectiveness of a unitary axis solar active tracker. In this work, a unitary axis solar active tracking system by which more energy from the sun can be harnes...

Iris nevus can be described as a growth commonly found on the iris, or regions surrounding the pupil. This growth is usually pigmented and non-cancerous, and therefore harmless; often requiring little medical attention. However, it has been established that there exists a relatively high risk of transformation of such growths into iris melanoma, wh...
