Summary
Self‐attention based progressive generative adversarial network optimized with arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA) is proposed in this manuscript for kidney stone detection. Initially, the input kidney stone images are gathered via CT kidney dataset. Then, the input image is preprocessed by utilizing APPDRC filtering approach. Also, the preprocessed images are given to the multi‐level thresholding segmentation technique for segmented the image. Then the segmented images are given to the TF‐IDF feature extraction method for extracting the features. Then the extracted features are fed to feature selection using Weibull distributive generalized multidimensional scaling methods for selecting the features. Then the selected features are SPGGAN classification method for kidney stone detection. Generally, SPGGAN not reveal any adoption of optimization methods compute optimum parameters for assuring correct kidney stone detection. Thus, AOA is used for optimizing the weight parameters of SPGGAN and it is implemented in python, its performance is examined under certain performances metrics, such as accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, F‐measure, computational time, and ROC. The proposed SPGGAN‐AOA‐KSD method attains 54.78%, 34.89%, and 20.96% higher accuracy and 3.45%, 4.08%, and 5.06% greater AUC compared with existing methods, such as a ANN‐OGGA‐KSD, HMANN‐BPA‐KSD, and ANN‐CSOA‐KSD respectively.
