Purpose: Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness, affecting over 93 million people. An automated clinical retinal screening process would be highly beneficial and provide a valuable second opinion for doctors worldwide. A computer-aided system to detect and grade the retinal images would enhance the workflow of endocrinologists. Approach: For this research, we make use of a publicly available dataset comprised of 3662 images. We present a hybrid machine learning architecture to detect and grade the level of diabetic retinopathy (DR) severity. We also present and compare simple transfer learning-based approaches using established networks such as AlexNet, VGG16, ResNet, …

Approximately two million pediatric deaths occur every year due to Pneumonia. Detection and diagnosis of Pneumonia plays an important role in reducing these deaths. Chest radiography is one of the most commonly used modalities to detect pneumonia. In this paper, we propose a novel two-stage deep learning architecture to detect pneumonia and classify its type in chest radiographs. This architecture contains one network to classify images as either normal or pneumonic, and another deep learning network to classify the type as either bacterial or viral. In this paper, we study and compare the performance of various stage one networks such …

In long-range imaging regimes, atmospheric turbulence degrades image quality. In addition to blurring, the turbulence causes geometric distortion effects that introduce apparent motion in acquired video. This is problematic for image processing tasks, including image enhancement and restoration (e.g., superresolution) and aided target recognition (e.g., vehicle trackers). To mitigate these warping effects from turbulence, it is necessary to distinguish between actual in-scene motion and apparent motion caused by atmospheric turbulence. Previously, the current authors generated a synthetic video by injecting moving objects into a static scene and then applying a well-validated anisoplanatic atmospheric optical turbulence simulator. With known per-pixel truth …
