This paper presents a low cost, robust, portable and automated cataract detection system which can detect the presence of cataract from the colored digital eye images and grade their severity. Ophthalmologists detect cataract through visual screening using ophthalmoscope and slit lamps. Conventionally a patient has to visit an ophthalmologist for eye screening and treatment follows the course. Developing countries lack the proper health infrastructure and face huge scarcity of trained medical professionals as well as technicians. The condition is not very satisfactory with the rural and remote areas of developed nations. To bridge this barrier between the patient and the availability of resources, current work focuses on the development of portable low-cost, robust cataract screening and grading system. Similar works use fundus and retinal images which use costly imaging modules and image based detection algorithms which use much complex neural network models. Current work derives its benefit from the advancements in digital image processing techniques. A set of preprocessing has been done on the colored eye image and later texture information in form of mean intensity, uniformity, standard deviation and randomness has been calculated and mapped with the diagnostic opinion of doctor for cataract screening of over 200 patients. For different grades of cataract severity edge
Today Micro-blogging has become a popular Internet-user communication tool. Millions of users exchange views on different aspects of their lives. Thus micro blogging websites are a rich source of opinion mining data or Sentiment Analysis (SA) information. Due to the recent emergence of micro blogging, there are a few research works devoted to this subject. We concentrate in our paper on Twitter, one of the prominent micro blogging sites to analyze sentiment of the public. We'll demonstrate, how to gather real-time twitter data for sentiment analysis or opinion mining purposes, and employed algorithms like Term Frequency - Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF), Bag of Words (BOW) and Multinomial Naive Bayes ( MNB). We are able to determine positive and negative sentiments for the real-time twitter data using the above chosen algorithms. Experimental evaluations below shows that the algorithms used are efficient and it can be used as a application in detection of the depression of the people. We worked with English in this article, but for any other language it can be used.
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.
