Abstract: Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a serious eye condition that is caused by a common complication of diabetes mellitus and one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. Common risk factors include the duration of diabetes, poor glycemic control, high blood pressure, smoking, high cholesterol and kidney disease. Early detection is important as it reduces the risk of vision loss, improved quality of life and cost savings. The treatments available for DR are medical, surgical, or laser procedures depending on the severity of the case. Improving awareness of the disease, expanding access to care, and reducing cost barriers can help to increase early detection rates and improve outcomes for patients with DR.

The project's primary objective is to find coconut palm disease and coconut maturity, with the objective of improving the quality of the product yield. It is difficult for a farmer to manually monitor coconut palm disease and maturity, which can take an extended period of time. Coconut palm diseases include seeding disease, white fungal disease, and spotting disease. The proposed system aids in the identification of coconut palm disease and coconut maturity, as well as to provide remedies for the disease and determining coconut maturity, which is the project's primary objective. Currently, solutions are found through image-processing techniques involving the identification of coconut maturity stages. As a matter of fact, an improved convolutional neural network model for order to detect two important coconut maturity stages, mature and immature, is proposed. Because of the complexity of the environment and the similarity between coconuts and their backgrounds, ability to detect the maturation stages of coconuts for harvesting without human intervention presents a challenge. To solve the problem, CNN model with Densenet architecture was employed for Coconut palm disease prediction and Resnet architecture was put to use for coconut maturity analysis. The final output will be easily obtained by using these architectures.

 Abstract

This proposed system is about automated techniques and methods to detect fracture. X-ray images are studied manually, but it is time-consuming and flat to errors. As X-ray images are more susceptible to noise, we used many preprocessing steps to remove noise and blur from the image. Thus, the system is able to spot fractures more accurately. The system detects fractures based on the type of fracture. The image is cleaned of noise and transformed into a clearer image so that the system can easily detect fracture. We used image processing methodologies to track bones. All unwanted objects, as well as smaller objects, are removed by the system. Finally, based on the connected component, the system detects a fracture. The system displays a bounding box around the fracture. Based on types of fracture images, preprocessing steps, and what a fracture detection system involves. The proposed system is able to detect bone dislocation with an 80% success rate, major bone fractures with 60-70% accuracy, and minor fractures with 50-60% accuracy.

 Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women. Many studies on the diagnosis and detection of breast cancer have been conducted using various image processing and classification techniques. Despite this, the disease remains one of the deadliest. Having given birth to one out of every six women in her lifetime. Early detection of breast cancer tumours is the only way to cure it. The most efficient and simple way to diagnose breast cancer is to use CAD (Computer Aided Diagnosis) on mammographic images. Accurate discovery can significantly reduce the mortality rate caused by mamma cancer. Clusters of masses and microcalcifications are important early symptoms of breast cancer. They can aid in the early detection of breast cancer. This paper quantifies the image analysis methods used for tumour detection. These tumours are extracted from the mammogram ROI using FCM to classify the microcalcifications as harmless, ordinary, or dangerous. These images are compared further and run through CNN to gain a better understanding of the cancer pattern in the mammography image.

 Abstract

The clients who were diagnosed to have diabetic neuropathy pain were gathered and seated in mallapalli village in Tiruppattur distict. A brief introduction of self and explanation of the purpose of the study was given. The clients were allotted into experimental and control group using simple random sampling technique by lottery method. At first demographic details were obtained through questionnaire for 5 minutes. It took10 minutes to assess the pretest level of neuropathy pain using Galer neuropathy pain scale. The researcher faced difficulty in explaining the components of the pain scale in the regional language. The control group were underwent the hospital routine whereas the experimental group were subjected to the contrast bath in addition to hospital routine. Clients in the experimental group were taken into the intervention in one by one for the contrast bath. The investigator used 2 basins with water (one for hot water and one for cold water). The temperature of hot water was 100-105 degree F and for cold water 60-70 degree F. the clients foot was immersed fully in hot water basin for 3 minutes followed by cold water basin for 1 minute. Then it was repeated for 5 times with the total duration of 20 minutes. The temperature of the water was maintained constant throughout the procedure by frequently adding hot or cold water. Immediately after the intervention, within 5-10 minutes, post test level of neuropathy pain was assessed using Galer neuropathy pain scale which took 5 minutes. The clients in the control group were asked to report to the diabetic outpatient department after hospital routine for assessing post test level of neuropathy pain using Galer neuropathy pain scale. It took 5 minutes for each person. Then the clients were taught about contrast bath and were encouraged to practice it frequently at home.
