AI Driven Detection and Remediation of Diabetic Foot Ulcer(DFU)

Manoj Prabhu M.*

Abstract

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) represent a major health issue in India, affecting a significant portion of diabetic patients. If not promptly addressed, these ulcers can lead to severe complications such as infection, gangrene, amputation, and chronic wounds. With 72% of DFU patients testing positive for multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), the risk of complications is notably elevated. Early detection is crucial for preventing these severe outcomes. This prototype employs artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning techniques, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), to detect and assess DFUs. By analysing annotated medical images, the system precisely measures the size and depth of ulcers using CNNs. AI facilitates early diagnosis, allowing for timely and tailored treatments, which enhances clinical decision-making and reduces the risks associated with advanced DFUs. The system utilizes an ESP32 camera to capture real-time images of the ulcers. Following image capture, the CNN algorithm performs image masking to isolate the ulcer region. The contours of the wound are displayed on a terminal, and the severity percentage of the ulcer is calculated along with recommended interventions based on the wound&'s stage. This approach not only reduces healthcare costs but also improves patient outcomes by preventing severe complications. The study underscores the importance of early diagnosis and highlights AI's potential in effective DFU management.

Advancements in Image Processing: Towards Near-Reversible Data Hiding and Enhanced Dehazing Using Deep Learning

Chinnam Sabitha*

Abstract

In this era of digital transformation, image processing techniques play a crucial role in various applications, from security to entertainment. This article explores two significant advancements in the field: near-reversible data hiding schemes and deep learning-based single image dehazing techniques. Near-reversible data hiding focuses on embedding secret information into digital images with minimal distortion, ensuring that the original image can be almost perfectly recovered. On the other hand, deep learning-based single image dehazing aims to enhance the quality and robustness of images affected by atmospheric haze using reference images and advanced neural network architectures. This article delves into the principles, methodologies, and applications of these cutting-edge techniques, shedding light on their potential impact on the future of image processing.
