In this work, we propose a multi-task learning-based approach towards the localization of optic disc and fovea from human retinal fundus images using a deep learning-based approach. Formulating the task as an image-based regression problem, we propose a Densenet121-based architecture through an extensive set of experiments with a variety of CNN architectures. Our proposed approach achieved an average mean absolute error of only 13pixels (0.04%), mean squared error of 11 pixels (0.005%), and a root mean square error of only 0.02 (13%) on the IDRiD dataset.

The optical disc in the human retina can reveal important information about a person's health and well-being. We propose a deep learning-based approach to automatically identify the region in human retinal images that corresponds to the optical disc. We formulated the task as an image segmentation problem that leverages multiple public-domain datasets of human retinal fundus images. Using an attention-based residual U-Net, we showed that the optical disc in a human retina image can be detected with more than 99% pixel-level accuracy and around 95% in Matthew's Correlation Coefficient. A comparison with variants of UNet with different encoder CNN architectures ascertains the superiority of the proposed approach across multiple metrics.

Subcellular localization of messenger RNA (mRNAs) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of gene expression, cell migration as well as in cellular adaptation. Experiment techniques for pinpointing the subcellular localization of mRNAs are laborious, time-consuming and expensive. Therefore, in silico approaches for this purpose are attaining great attention in the RNA community.

Winning football matches is the major goal of all football clubs in the world. Football being the most popular game in the world, many studies have been conducted to analyze and predict match winners based on players’ physical and technical performance. In this study, we analyzed the matches from the professional football league of Qatar Stars League (QSL) covering the matches held in the last ten seasons. We incorporated the highest number of professional matches from the last ten seasons covering from 2011 up to 2022 and proposed SoccerNet, a Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU)-based deep learning-based model to predict match winners with over 80% accuracy. We considered match- and player-related information captured by STATS platform in a time slot of 15 minutes. Then we analyzed players’ performance at different positions on the field at different stages of the match. Our results indicated that in QSL, the defenders’ role in matches is more dominant than midfielders and forwarders. Moreover, our analysis suggests that the last 15–30 minutes of match segments of the matches from QSL have a more significant impact on the match result than other match segments. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed model is the first DL-based model in predicting match winners from any professional football leagues in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. We believe the results will support the coaching staff and team management for QSL in designing game strategies and improve the overall quality of performance of the players.

More than half a billion people worldwide are affected by diabetes, which is a prevalent non-communicable disease that can lead to critical health conditions, including vision loss. Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) is a primary cause of vision impairment and can eventually lead to blindness in diabetic patients. Early detection of DME and proper health management are crucial to controlling the disease. Retinal image-based AI-enabled diabetes diagnosis has gained significant attention as a non-invasive, fast, and reasonably accurate method for diagnosing DME. To make this technology accessible to underserved communities or areas lacking proper clinical facilities, a mobile application-based solution could have a significant impact. In this article, we describe how we transformed our previously published AI-enabled model into an Android-based mobile application, which is part of a two-phase research study. In the first phase, we developed a deep learning-based model that predicts DME grading using retinal images. In the second phase, we built a mobile application DMEgrader to make our model accessible via a mobile device. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first article to demonstrate necessary steps and code snippets to support developers in transforming deep learning models into Android based mobile applications for DME grading prediction. © 2023 IEEE.
