Archimedes Optimization Algorithm With Deep Learning Assisted Content-Based Image Retrieval in Healthcare Sector

Abstract

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) in the healthcare field is an advanced technology that leverages the visual or content features of medical images to retrieve similar images from vast data. This technology has significant applications in healthcare, including medical diagnosis, research, and treatment planning. It is a diagnostic tool that enhances the explainability of computer-aided diagnoses (CAD) systems and provides decision-making support for healthcare professionals. A conventional way to CBIR is learning a distance metric by converting images into feature space where the distance between samples is a similarity measurement. CBIR systems can autonomously extract intricate features from medical images by leveraging convolutional neural networks (CNN) and other advanced deep learning techniques, enabling accurate and swift retrieval of relevant patient cases and diagnostic references. This manuscript designs an Archimedes Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning Assisted Content-Based Image Retrieval in Healthcare Sector (AOADL-CBIRH) technique. The AOADL-CBIRH technique intends to retrieve similar images based on query images in the healthcare sector. In the presented AOADL-CBIRH technique, image pre-processing is initially performed using an adaptive bilateral filtering (ABF) approach to enhance the image quality. For deep feature extraction, the AOADL-CBIRH method applies the Efficient Channel Spatial Model (ECSM) with the ResNet50 model. To improve the retrieval performance, the AOADL-CBIRH technique employs AOA-based hyperparameter tuning for the ECSM-ResNet50 model. Lastly, the Manhattan distance metric determines the similarity between the images and retrieves them. The experimental evaluation of the AOADL-CBIRH algorithm is tested by using benchmark image dataset. The stimulation values signified the enhanced retrieval results of the AOADL-CBIRH technique over other models.
