    Abstract The development of generative architectures has resulted in numerous novel deep-learning models that generate images using text inputs. However, humans naturally use speech for visualization prompts. Therefore, this paper proposes an architecture that integrates speech prompts as input to image-generation Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) model, leveraging Speech-to-Text translation along with the CLIP + VQGAN model. The proposed method involves translating speech prompts into text, which is then used by the Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) + Vector Quantized Generative Adversarial Network (VQGAN) model to generate images. This paper outlines the steps required to implement such a… More >

    A Nature-Inspired AI Framework for Accurate Glaucoma Diagnosis

    Jahanzaib Latif , Ahsan Wajahat, Alishba Tahir, Anas Bilal, Mohammed Zakariah, Abeer Alnuaim
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.143, No.1, pp. 539-567, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.062301

    Abstract Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness, demands early detection for effective management. While AI-based diagnostic systems are gaining traction, their performance is often limited by challenges such as varying image backgrounds, pixel intensity inconsistencies, and object size variations. To address these limitations, we introduce an innovative, nature-inspired machine learning framework combining feature excitation-based dense segmentation networks (FEDS-Net) and an enhanced gray wolf optimization-supported support vector machine (IGWO-SVM). This dual-stage approach begins with FEDS-Net, which utilizes a fuzzy integral (FI) technique to accurately segment the optic cup (OC) and optic disk (OD) from retinal images, even More >

    Coupling the Power of YOLOv9 with Transformer for Small Object Detection in Remote-Sensing Images

    Mohammad Barr
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.143, No.1, pp. 593-616, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.062264
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Advances in AI-Driven Computational Modeling for Image Processing)
    Abstract Recent years have seen a surge in interest in object detection on remote sensing images for applications such as surveillance and management. However, challenges like small object detection, scale variation, and the presence of closely packed objects in these images hinder accurate detection. Additionally, the motion blur effect further complicates the identification of such objects. To address these issues, we propose enhanced YOLOv9 with a transformer head (YOLOv9-TH). The model introduces an additional prediction head for detecting objects of varying sizes and swaps the original prediction heads for transformer heads to leverage self-attention mechanisms.

    Anandhavalli Muniasamy, Ashwag Alasmari
    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.143, No.1, pp. 569-592, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.060484

    Abstract The effective and timely diagnosis and treatment of ocular diseases are key to the rapid recovery of patients. Today, the mass disease that needs attention in this context is cataracts. Although deep learning has significantly advanced the analysis of ocular disease images, there is a need for a probabilistic model to generate the distributions of potential outcomes and thus make decisions related to uncertainty quantification. Therefore, this study implements a Bayesian Convolutional Neural Networks (BCNN) model for predicting cataracts by assigning probability values to the predictions. It prepares convolutional neural network (CNN) and BCNN models. More >

    Abstract Lung cancer continues to be a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, emphasizing the critical need for improved diagnostic techniques. Early detection of lung tumors significantly increases the chances of successful treatment and survival. However, current diagnostic methods often fail to detect tumors at an early stage or to accurately pinpoint their location within the lung tissue. Single-model deep learning technologies for lung cancer detection, while beneficial, cannot capture the full range of features present in medical imaging data, leading to incomplete or inaccurate detection. Furthermore, it may not be robust enough to handle the… More >
