Article Citation - WoS: 1Motion Artifact Detection in Colonoscopy Images(Sciendo, 2018-07-01) Kacmaz, Rukiye Nur; Yilmaz, Bulent; Dundar, Mehmet Sait; Dogan, SerkanComputer-aided detection is an integral part of medical image evaluation process because examination of each image takes a long time and generally experts' do not have enough time for the elimination of images with motion artifact (blurred images). Computer-aided detection is required for both increasing accuracy rate and saving experts' time. Large intestine does not have straight structure thus camera of the colonoscopy should be moved continuously to examine inside of the large intestine and this movement causes motion artifact on colonoscopy images. In this study, images were selected from open-source colonoscopy videos and obtained at Kayseri Training and Research Hospital. Totally 100 images were analyzed half of which were clear. Firstly, a modified version of histogram equalization was applied in the pre-processing step to all images in our dataset, and then, used Laplacian, wavelet transform (WT), and discrete cosine transform-based (DCT) approaches to extract features for the discrimination of images with no artifact (clear) and images with motion artifact. The Laplacian-based feature extraction method was used for the first time in the literature on colonoscopy images. The comparison between Laplacian-based features and previously used methods such as WT and DCT has been performed. In the classification phase of our study, support vector machines (SVM), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and k nearest neighbors (k-NN) were used as the classifiers. The results showed that Laplacian-based features were more successful in the detection of images with motion artifact when compared to popular methods used in the literature. As a result, a combination of features extracted using already existing approaches (WT and DCT) and the Laplacian-based methods reached 85% accuracy levels with SVM classification approach.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Comparison of Deep Learning and Conventional Machine Learning Methods for Classification of Colon Polyp Types(Sciendo, 2021-01-01) Dogan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, BulentDetermination of polyp types requires tissue biopsy during colonoscopy and then histopathological examination of the microscopic images which tremendously time-consuming and costly. The first aim of this study was to design a computer-aided diagnosis system to classify polyp types using colonoscopy images (optical biopsy) without the need for tissue biopsy. For this purpose, two different approaches were designed based on conventional machine learning (ML) and deep learning. Firstly, classification was performed using random forest approach by means of the features obtained from the histogram of gradients descriptor. Secondly, simple convolutional neural networks (CNN) based architecture was built to train with the colonoscopy images containing colon polyps. The performances of these approaches on two (adenoma & serrated vs. hyperplastic) or three (adenoma vs. hyperplastic vs. serrated) category classifications were investigated. Furthermore, the effect of imaging modality on the classification was also examined using white-light and narrow band imaging systems. The performance of these approaches was compared with the results obtained by 3 novice and 4 expert doctors. Two-category classification results showed that conventional ML approach achieved significantly better than the simple CNN based approach did in both narrow band and white-light imaging modalities. The accuracy reached almost 95% for white-light imaging. This performance surpassed the correct classification rate of all 7 doctors. Additionally, the second task (three-category) results indicated that the simple CNN architecture outperformed both conventional ML based approaches and the doctors. This study shows the feasibility of using conventional machine learning or deep learning based approaches in automatic classification of colon types on colonoscopy images.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Examining Tongue Movement Intentions in EEG-Based BCI With Machine and Deep Learning: An Approach for Dysphagia Rehabilitation(Sciendo, 2024) Aslan, Sevgi Gokce; Yilmaz, BulentDysphagia, a common swallowing disorder particularly prevalent among older adults and often associated with neurological conditions, significantly affects individuals' quality of life by negatively impacting their eating habits, physical health, and social interactions. This study investigates the potential of brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies in dysphagia rehabilitation, focusing specifically on motor imagery paradigms based on EEG signals and integration with machine learning and deep learning methods for tongue movement. Traditional machine learning classifiers, such as K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Naive Bayes, Random Forest, AdaBoost, Bagging, and Kernel were employed in discrimination of rest and imagination phases of EEG signals obtained from 30 healthy subjects. Scalogram images obtained using continuous wavelet transform of EEG signals corresponding to the rest and imagination phases of the experiment were used as the input images to the CNN architecture. As a result, KNN (79.4%) and SVM (63.4%) exhibited lower accuracy rates compared to ensemble methods like AdaBoost, Bagging, and Random Forest, all achieving high accuracy rates of 99.8%. These ensemble techniques proved to be highly effective in handling complex EEG datasets, particularly in distinguishing between rest and imagination phases. Furthermore, the deep learning approach, utilizing CNN and Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), achieved an accuracy of 83%, highlighting its potential in analyzing motor imagery data. Overall, this study demonstrates the promising role of BCI technologies and advanced machine learning techniques, especially ensemble and deep learning methods, in improving outcomes for dysphagia rehabilitation.
