Nowadays, many studies have been conducted to assess driver fatigue, as it has become one of the leading causes of traffic crashes. However, with the use of advanced features and machine learning approaches, EEG signals may be processed in an effective way, allowing fatigue to be detected promptly and efficiently. An optimal channel selection approach and a competent classification algorithm might be viewed as a critical aspect of efficient fatigue detection by the driver. In the present framework, a new channel selection algorithm based on correlation coefficients and an ensemble classifier based on random subspace k-nearest neighbour (k-NN) has been presented to enhance the classification performance of EEG data for driver fatigue detection. Moreover, power spectral density (PSD) was used to extract the feature, confirming the presented method's robustness. Additionally, to make the fatigue detection system faster, we conducted the experiment in three different time windows, including 0.5s, 0.75s, and 1s. It was found that the proposed method attained classification accuracy of 99.99% in a 0.5 second time window to identify driver fatigue by means of EEG. The outstanding performance of the presented framework can be used effectively in EEGbased driver fatigue detection.

<p>Breast cancer is one of the most common diseases diagnosed among female cancer patients. Early detection of breast cancer is needed to reduce the risk of fatality of this disease as no cure has been found yet for this illness. This research is conducted to improve the Gradient Vector Flow (GVF) Snake Active Contour segmentation technique in mammography segmentation. Segmentation of the mammogram image is done to segment lesions existence using Chan-Vese Active Contour and Localized Active Contour. Besides that, the effectiveness of these both methods are then compared and chosen to be the best method. Digital Database of Screening Mammograms (DDSM) is used for the purpose of screening. First, the images undergo pre-processing process using the Gaussian Low Pass Filter to remove unwanted noise. After that, contrast enhancement applied to the images. Segmentation of mammograms is then conducted by using Chan-Vese Active Contour and Localized Active Contour method. The result shows that Chan-Vese technique outperforms Localized Active Contour with 90% accuracy.</p>
