Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 9Image Processing and Cell Phone Microscopy to Analyze the Immunomagnetic Beads on Micro-Contact Printed Gratings(MDPI Ag, 2016-09-28) Icoz, KutayIn this paper we report an ultra-low-cost spherical ball lens based cell phone microscopy and image processing algorithms to analyze the amount of immunomagnetic beads on micro-contact printed gratings. The spherical ball lens provides approximately 100x magnification but the recorded images are not clear and are noisy. By using the image-processing algorithms, the noise can be reduced and the images can be enhanced to quantify the amount of immunomagnetic beads on micro-contact printed lines. This method, which is portable and low-cost, can be an alternative read out mechanism for biosensing applications using immunomagnetic beads on micro-contact printed surface receptors. Further, 0.0335 mg/mL was the lowest magnetic bead concentration that could be detected above the inherent noise level of the spherical ball lens.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 18Histopathology Image Classification: Highlighting the Gap Between Manual Analysis and AI Automation(Frontiers Media S.A., 2024-01-17) Dogan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, BulentThe field of histopathological image analysis has evolved significantly with the advent of digital pathology, leading to the development of automated models capable of classifying tissues and structures within diverse pathological images. Artificial intelligence algorithms, such as convolutional neural networks, have shown remarkable capabilities in pathology image analysis tasks, including tumor identification, metastasis detection, and patient prognosis assessment. However, traditional manual analysis methods have generally shown low accuracy in diagnosing colorectal cancer using histopathological images. This study investigates the use of AI in image classification and image analytics using histopathological images using the histogram of oriented gradients method. The study develops an AI-based architecture for image classification using histopathological images, aiming to achieve high performance with less complexity through specific parameters and layers. In this study, we investigate the complicated state of histopathological image classification, explicitly focusing on categorizing nine distinct tissue types. Our research used open-source multi-centered image datasets that included records of 100.000 non-overlapping images from 86 patients for training and 7180 non-overlapping images from 50 patients for testing. The study compares two distinct approaches, training artificial intelligence-based algorithms and manual machine learning models, to automate tissue classification. This research comprises two primary classification tasks: binary classification, distinguishing between normal and tumor tissues, and multi-classification, encompassing nine tissue types, including adipose, background, debris, stroma, lymphocytes, mucus, smooth muscle, normal colon mucosa, and tumor. Our findings show that artificial intelligence-based systems can achieve 0.91 and 0.97 accuracy in binary and multi-class classifications. In comparison, the histogram of directed gradient features and the Random Forest classifier achieved accuracy rates of 0.75 and 0.44 in binary and multi-class classifications, respectively. Our artificial intelligence-based methods are generalizable, allowing them to be integrated into histopathology diagnostics procedures and improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. The CNN model outperforms existing machine learning techniques, demonstrating its potential to improve the precision and effectiveness of histopathology image analysis. This research emphasizes the importance of maintaining data consistency and applying normalization methods during the data preparation stage for analysis. It particularly highlights the potential of artificial intelligence to assess histopathological images.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 5Effect of Interpolation on Specular Reflections in Texture-Based Automatic Colonic Polyp Detection(Wiley, 2020-06-26) Kacmaz, Rukiye Nur; Yilmaz, Bulent; Aydin, ZaferReflections of LED light cause unwanted noise effects called specular reflection (SR) on colonoscopic images. The aim of this study was to seek answers to the following two questions. (a) How are the texture features used in automatic detection of polyps affected by the interpolation on specular reflections? (b) If they are affected does it really affect the classification performance? In order to answer these questions, we used 610 colonoscopy images, and divided each image into tiles whose sizes were 32-by-32 pixels. From these tiles, we selected the ones without any specular reflection. We added different shape and size specular reflections cropped from real images onto the reflection-free tiles. We then used the nearest neighbors, bilinear and bicubic interpolation techniques on the tiles on which SRs were added. On these tiles we extracted 116 texture features using 3 second-order approaches, and 4 first-order statistics. First, we used paired samplettest. Second, we performed automatic classification of polyps and background using random forest and k nearest neighbors (k-NN) approaches using the texture features for different combinations of specular reflections added on the tiles from the polyp or background. The results showed that depending on the size of specular reflection, interpolation can cause a significant difference between the texture features that were coming from reflection-free tiles and the same tiles on which interpolation was performed. In addition, we note that bicubic interpolation may be preferred to eliminate specular reflection when texture features are used for background and polyp discrimination.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3A Comprehensive Study on Automatic Non-Informative Frame Detection in Colonoscopy Videos(Wiley, 2024-01) Kacmaz, Rukiye Nur; Dogan, Refika Sultan; Yilmaz, BuelentDespite today's developing healthcare technology, conventional colonoscopy is still a gold-standard method to detect colon abnormalities. Due to the folded structure of the intestine and visual disturbances caused by artifacts, it can be hard for specialists to detect abnormalities during the procedure. Frames that include artifacts such as specular reflection, improper contrast levels from insufficient or excessive illumination gastric juice, bubbles, or residuals should be detected to increase an accurate diagnosis rate. In this work, both conventional machine learning and transfer learning methods have been used to detect non-informative frames in colonoscopy videos. The conventional machine learning part consists of 5 different types of texture features, which are gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), gray level run length matrix (GLRLM), neighborhood gray-tone difference matrix (NGTDM), focus measure operators (FMOs), and first-order statistics. In addition to these methods, we utilized 8 different transfer learning models: AlexNet, SqueezeNet, GoogleNet, ShuffleNet, ResNet50, ResNet18, NasNetMobile, and MobileNet. The results showed that FMOs and decision tree combination gave the best accuracy and f-measure values with almost 89% and 0.79%, respectively, for the conventional machine learning part. When the transfer learning part is taken into account, AlexNet (99.85%) and SqueezeNet (98.80%) have the highest performance metric results. This study shows the potential of both transfer learning and conventional machine learning algorithms to provide fast and accurate non-informative frame detection to be used during a colonoscopy, which may be considered the initial step in identifying and classifying colon-related diseases automatically to help guide physicians.
