Brain tumor segmentation and classification is a crucial challenge in diagnosing, planning, and treating brain tumors. This article proposes an automatic method that categorizes the severity level of the tumors to render an effective diagnosis. The proposed fractional Jaya optimizer-deep convolutional neural network undergoes the severity classification based on the features obtained from the segments of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. The segments are obtained using the particle swarm optimization that ensures the optimal selection of the segments from the MRI image and yields the core tumor and the edema tumor regions. The experimentation using the BRATS database reveals that the proposed method acquired a maximal accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of 0.9414, 0.9429, and 0.9708, respectively. 相似文献

In recent days, providing security to data is a crucial and critical task in many image processing applications. Specifically, video security is an important and demanding concept. For this purpose, some of the embedding, encoding and decoding techniques are mentioned in existing works, but it has some drawbacks such as increased time complexity, computational complexity and memory consumption. Moreover, it does not provide high security during video transmission. To overcome all these issues, a new technique, namely, Zero Level Binary Mapping (ZLBM) is proposed in this paper for video embedding scheme. The motivation of this paper is to provide high security during video transformation by using the video steganography technique. At first, the cover and stego videos are given as the inputs and it will be converted into the video frames for further processing. Here, the Fuzzy Adaptive Median Filtering (FAMF) technique is employed to remove the impulse noise in the video frames. Then, the pixels in the filtered frames are grouped by using the block wise pixel grouping technique. After that, the frames are embedded with the help of ZLBM technique and encoded based on the patch wise code formation technique. On the receiver side, the inverse ZLBM and block wise pixel regrouping techniques are applied to get the original cover and stego videos. The novel concept of this paper is the use of ZLBM and patch wise code formation techniques for video embedding and compression. The main advantages of the proposed system are high security, good quality and reduced complexity. The experimental results evaluate the performance of the proposed video embedding technique in terms of Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Compression Ratio (CR), Bits Per Pixel (BPP) and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). 相似文献

This paper presents a novel approach in designing fractal antennas operating at 2.45 GHz. Mainly focuses on design and simulation of a combination of Koch and Sierpinski fractal antenna with jeans as substrate material with dielectric constant 1.6 up to 2nd iteration. The design of antenna presented here can radiate at 2.45 GHZ, 3.64 GHZ, and 4.06 GHz frequencies with a reflection coefficient less than ? 10 dB, VSWR between 1 and 2 and enhancement in bandwidth up to 200 MHz. This antenna has been simulated using CADFEKO software, fabricated and tested on VNA and has been observed that there is good conformity between simulation and experimental results. Besides that, Fractal antenna using jeans material as substrate for WiMAX/WSN Application at S and C frequency bands is small in size, flexible, less costly and low profile multiband antenna.
A study was conducted of blends of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) with a poly(methyl methacrylate co imide). The latter polymer was found to be miscible in PVC and to raise the glass transition temperature of the blend. Blends of all compositions could be oriented, but the processing temperature increased in proportion with Tg. For a given blend composition, orientation increased with increasing stretch ratio and strain rate and with decreasing stretch temperature. Increasing copolyimide content and increasing orientation generally lead to improved mechanical properties, though the blends containing high levels of copolyimide exhibited low ductilities. 相似文献
Both enzymatic and nonenzymatic PTMs of proteins involve chemical modifications. Some of these modifications are prerequisite for the normal functioning of cell, while other chemical modifications render the proteins as “neo-self” antigens, which are recognized as “non-self” leading to aberrant cellular and humoral immune responses. However, these modifications could be a secondary effect of autoimmune diseases, as in the case of type I diabetes, hyperglycemia leads to protein glycation. The enigma of chemical modifications and immune response is akin to the “chick-and-egg” paradox. Nevertheless, chemical modifications regulate immune response. In some of the well-known autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and multiple sclerosis, chemically modified proteins act as autoantigens forming immune complexes. In some instances, chemical modifications are also involved in regulating immune response during pathogen infection. Further, the usefulness of proteomic analysis of immune complexes is briefly discussed. 相似文献
A multi-step process that employs a Ni-modified mixed alkaline earth metal oxides (AEMO) has been developed for the selective conversion of hydrocarbons to C2H2 and CO. The initial process step is the catalytic decomposition of a gaseous hydrocarbon mixture at an elevated temperature (ca. 800 °C) over Ni/AEMO, generating H2, trace CO, carbon (C), and trace alkaline earth metal carbide (MC2). The Ni/AEMO/C/MC2 material is then heated to consume the remaining carbon, generate more MC2, and evolve CO. Then, Ni/AEMO/MC2 is cooled and reacted with excess H2O at a low temperature (20 < T (°C) < 80) to selectively generate C2H2 and Ni/AEM(OH)2·zH2O. In the final process step, Ni/AEM(OH)2·zH2O is decomposed to yield H2O and Ni/AEMO, which is recycled within the process. The most advanced Ni/AEMO materials developed thus far exhibit intrinsic production capacities exceeding 2000 μmoles of C2H2 per gram of Ni/AEMO per process cycle. 相似文献
