The speckle noise present in synthetic‐aperture radar (SAR) images is responsible for hindering the extraction of the exact information that needs to be utilized for potential remote sensing applications. Thus the quality of SAR images needs to be enhanced by removing speckle noise in an effective manner. In this paper, A Deep Neural Network‐based Speckle Noise Removal Technique (DNN‐SNRT) is proposed that utilizes the benefits of convolution and Long Short Term Memory‐based neural networks to enhance the quality of SAR images. The proposed DNN‐SNRT uses multiple radar intensity images that are archived from the specific area of interest to facilitate the self‐learning of the intensity features derived from the image patches. The proposed DNN‐SNRT incorporates a dual neural network to remove speckle noise and flexibly estimates the thresholds and weights to achieve an effective SAR image quality improvement. The proposed DNN‐SNRT is capable of automatically updating the intensity features of SAR images during the training process. Experimental investigation of the proposed DNN‐SNRT conducted based on TerraSAR‐X images confirmed the superior enhancement of image quality over comparable recent filters. The results of the DNN‐SNRT scheme were also proved that it is able to reduce noise and preserve edges during the image quality enhancement process.
The non-stationary ECG signals are used as a key tools in screening coronary diseases. ECG recording is collected from millions of cardiac cells' and depolarization and re-polarization conducted in a synchronized manner as: The P-wave occurs first, followed by the QRScomplex and the T-wave, which will repeat in each beat. The signal is altered in a cardiac beat period for different heart conditions. This change can be observed in order to diagnose the patient's heart status. There are life-threatening (critical) and non-life -threatening (noncritical) arrhythmia (abnormal Heart). Critical arrhythmia gives little time for surgery, whereas non-critical needs additional life-saving care. Simple naked eye diagnosis can mislead the detection. At that point, Computer Assisted Diagnosis (CAD) is therefore required. In this paper Dual Tree Wavelet Transform (DTWT) used as a feature extraction technique along with Convolution Neural Network (CNN) to detect abnormal Heart. The findings of this research and associated studies are without any cumbersome artificial environments. The CAD method proposed has high generalizability; it can help doctors efficiently identify diseases and decrease misdiagnosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
