    Mitigation of H.264 and H.265 Video Compression for Reliable PRNU Estimation
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2020) Altinisik, Enes; Tasdemir, Kasim; Sencar, Husrev Taha
    The photo-response non-uniformity (PRNU) is a distinctive image sensor characteristic, and an imaging device inadvertently introduces its sensor's PRNU into all media it captures. Therefore, the PRNU can be regarded as a camera fingerprint and used for source attribution. The imaging pipeline in a camera, however, involves various processing steps that are detrimental to PRNU estimation. In the context of photographic images, these challenges are successfully addressed and the method for estimating a sensor's PRNU pattern is well established. However, various additional challenges related to generation of videos remain largely untackled. With this perspective, this work introduces methods to mitigate disruptive effects of widely deployed H.264 and H.265 video compression standards on PRNU estimation. Our approach involves an intervention in the decoding process to eliminate a filtering procedure applied at the decoder to reduce blockiness. It also utilizes decoding parameters to develop a weighting scheme and adjust the contribution of video frames at the macroblock level to PRNU estimation process. Results obtained on videos captured by 28 cameras show that our approach increases the PRNU matching metric up to more than five times over the conventional estimation method tailored for photos. Tests on a public dataset also verify that the proposed method improves the attribution performance by increasing the accuracy and allowing the use of smaller length videos to perform attribution.

    Deep Learning Based Semantic Segmentation and Quantification for MRD Biochip Images
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2022-08) Celebi, Fatma; Tasdemir, Kasim; Icoz, Kutay
    Microfluidic platforms offer prominent advantages for the early detection of cancer and monitoring the patient response to therapy. Numerous microfluidic platforms have been developed for capturing and quantifying the tumor cells integrating several readout methods. Earlier, we have developed a microfluidic platform (MRD Biochip) to capture and quantify leukemia cells. This is the first study which employs a deep learning-based segmentation to the MRD Biochip images consisting of leukemic cells, immunomagnetic beads and micropads. Implementing deep learning algorithms has two main contributions; firstly, the quantification performance of the readout method is improved for the unbalanced dataset. Secondly, unlike the previous classical computer vision -based method, it does not require any manual tuning of the parameters which resulted in a more generalized model against variations of objects in the image in terms of size, color, and noise. As a result of these benefits, the proposed system is promising for providing real time analysis for microfluidic systems. Moreover, we compare different deep learning based semantic segmentation algorithms on the image dataset which are acquired from the real patient samples using a bright-field microscopy. Without cell staining, hyper-parameter optimized, and modified U-Net semantic segmentation algorithm yields 98.7% global accuracy, 86.1% mean IoU, 92.2% mean precision, 92.2% mean recall and 92.2% mean F-1 score measure on the patient dataset. After segmentation, quantification result yields 89% average precision, 97% average recall on test images. By applying the deep learning algorithms, we are able to improve our previous results that employed conventional computer vision methods.

    BLSTM Based Night-Time Wildfire Detection From Video
    (Public Library Science, 2022-06-03) Agirman, Ahmet K.; Tasdemir, Kasim
    Distinguishing fire from non-fire objects in night videos is problematic if only spatial features are to be used. Those features are highly disrupted under low-lit environments because of several factors, such as the dynamic range limitations of the cameras. This makes the analysis of temporal behavior of night-time fire indispensable for classification. To this end, a BLSTM based night-time wildfire event detection from a video algorithm is proposed. It is shown in the experiments that the proposed algorithm attains 95.15% of accuracy when tested against a wide variety of actual recordings of night-time wildfire incidents and 23.7 ms per frame detection time. Moreover, to pave the way for more targeted solutions to this challenging problem, experiment-based thorough investigations of possible sources of incorrect predictions and discussion of the unique nature of night-time wildfire videos are presented in the paper.

    Automated Quantification of Immunomagnetic Beads and Leukemia Cells from Optical Microscope Images
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2019-03) Uslu, Fatma; Icoz, Kutay; Tasdemir, Kasim; Yilmaz, Bulent
    Quantification of tumor cells is crucial for early detection and monitoring the progress of cancer. Several methods have been developed for detecting tumor cells. However, automated quantification of cells in the presence of immunomagnetic beads has not been studied. In this study, we developed computer vision based algorithms to quantify the leukemia cells captured and separated by micron size immunomagnetic beads. Color, size based object identification and machine learning based methods were implemented to quantify targets in the images recorded by a bright field microscope. Images acquired by a 40x or a 20x objective were analyzed, the immunomagnetic beads were detected with an error rate of 0.0171 and 0.0384 respectively. Our results reveal that the proposed method attains 91.6% precision for the 40x objective and 79.7% for the 20x objective. This algorithm has the potential to be the signal readout mechanism of a biochip for cell detection. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    A Review of Mammographic Region of Interest Classification
    (Wiley Periodicals, inc, 2020-02-18) Yengec Tasdemir, Sena B.; Tasdemir, Kasim; Aydin, Zafer
    Early detection of breast cancer is important and highly valuable in clinical practice. X-ray mammography is broadly used for prescreening the breast and is also attractive due to its noninvasive nature. However, experts can misdiagnose a significant proportion of the cases, which may either cause redundant examinations or cancer. In order to reduce false positive and negative rates of mammography screening, computer-aided breast cancer detection has been studied for more than 30 years and many methods have been proposed by the researchers. In this review, region of interest (ROI) classification methods, which operate on a predefined or segmented ROIs with a focus on mass classification are surveyed. A total of 72 high quality journal and conference papers are selected from the Web of Science (WOS) database that meet several inclusion criteria. A comparative analysis is provided based on ROI extraction methods, data sets and machine learning techniques employed, the prediction accuracies, and usage frequency statistics. Based on the performances obtained on publicly available data sets, the ROI classification problem from mammogram images can be considered as approaching to be solved. Nonetheless, it can still be used as complementary information in breast cancer detection from the whole mammograms, which has room for improvement.
