Computer Vision Malaria Diagnostic Systems—Progress and Prospects

Accurate malaria diagnosis is critical to prevent malaria fatalities, curb overuse of antimalarial drugs, and promote appropriate management of other causes of fever. While several diagnostic tests exist, the need for a rapid and highly acc...

Up-to-Date Scoping Review of Object Detection Methods for Macro Marine Debris

Being able to accurately identify litter in a marine environment is crucial to cleaning up our seas and oceans. Research into object detection techniques to support this identification has been underway for over two decades. However, there ...

Backhand-Approach-Based American Sign Language Words Recognition Using Spatial-Temporal Body Parts and Hand Relationship Patterns

Most of the existing methods focus mainly on the extraction of shape-based, rotation-based, and motion-based features, usually neglecting the relationship between hands and body parts, which can provide significant information to address th...

Robot Comedy Lab: Experimenting with the Social Dynamics of Live Performance

The success of live comedy depends on a performer's ability to 'work' an audience. Ethnographic studies suggest that this involves the co-ordinated use of subtle social signals such as body orientation, gesture, gaze by both performers and ...

Integrating Computer Vision: Advancements in Fire and Smoke Detection Using CNNs

Conventional fire detection systems, which depend on smoke and fire sensors, frequently have problems with calibration, susceptibility to environmental changes, and the requirement for ongoing maintenance. These flaws can result in unfavora...

Data Efficient Vision Transformer Based Model for Brain Tumor Classification in MRI

Accurate detection of brain tumors at early stages is crucial for clinical diagnosis and treatment planning. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the most popular method due to its soft-tissue contrast and spatial resolution. However, manual...

DualSight: multi-stage instance segmentation framework for improved precision

Abstract Powder properties, particularly their morphology (which includes size, shape, surface roughness, etc.), play a critical role in the quality of cold spray additively manufactured materials. A change in feedstock powder morphology ca...
