Cervical cancer is the fourth most common category of cancer, affecting more than 500,000 women annually, owing to the slow detection procedure. Early diagnosis can help in treating and even curing cancer, but the tedious, time-consuming testing process makes it impossible to conduct population-wise screening. To aid the pathologists in efficient and reliable detection, in this paper, we propose a fully automated computer-aided diagnosis tool for classifying single-cell and slide images of cervical cancer. The main concern in developing an automatic detection tool for biomedical image classification is the low availability of publicly accessible data. Ensemble Learning is a popular approach for image classification, but simplistic approaches that leverage pre-determined weights to classifiers fail to perform satisfactorily. In this research, we use the Sugeno Fuzzy Integral to ensemble the decision scores from three popular pretrained deep learning models, namely, Inception v3, DenseNet-161 and ResNet-34. The proposed Fuzzy fusion is capable of taking into consideration the confidence scores of the classifiers for each sample, and thus adaptively changing the importance given to each classifier, capturing the complementary information supplied by each, thus leading to superior classification performance. We evaluated the proposed method on three publicly available datasets, the Mendeley Liquid Based Cytology (LBC) dataset, the SIPaKMeD Whole Slide Image (WSI) dataset, and the SIPaKMeD Single Cell Image (SCI) dataset, and the results thus yielded are promising. Analysis of the approach using GradCAM-based visual representations and statistical tests, and comparison of the method with existing and baseline models in literature justify the efficacy of the approach.
Cervical cancer is one of the most deadly and common diseases among women worldwide. It is completely curable if diagnosed in an early stage, but the tedious and costly detection procedure makes it unviable to conduct population-wise screening. Thus,
Liquid-based cytology (LBC) is a reliable automated technique for the screening of Papanicolaou (Pap) smear data. It is an effective technique for collecting a majority of the cervical cells and aiding cytopathologists in locating abnormal cells. Mos
This paper presents an automated classification method of infective and non-infective diseases from anterior eye images. Treatments for cases of infective and non-infective diseases are different. Distinguishing them from anterior eye images is impor
We conduct an in-depth exploration of different strategies for doing event detection in videos using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) trained for image classification. We study different ways of performing spatial and temporal pooling, feature no
Softmax loss is arguably one of the most popular losses to train CNN models for image classification. However, recent works have exposed its limitation on feature discriminability. This paper casts a new viewpoint on the weakness of softmax loss. On
