Abstract

Stroke is a main risk to life and fitness in current society, particularly in the aging population. Also, the stroke is recognized as a cerebrovascular accident. It contains a nervous illness, which can result from haemorrhage or ischemia of the brain veins, and regular mains to assorted motor and cognitive damages that cooperate with functionality. Screening for stroke comprises physical examination, history taking, and valuation of risk features like age or certain cardiovascular illnesses. Symptoms and signs of stroke include facial weakness. Even though computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are standard diagnosis techniques, artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been constructed based on these methods, which deliver fast detection. AI is gaining high attention and is being combined into numerous areas with medicine to enhance the accuracy of analysis and the quality of patient care. This paper proposes an enhancing neurological disease diagnostics fusion of transfer learning for acute brain stroke prediction using facial images (ENDDFTL-ABSPFI) method. The proposed ENDDFTL-ABSPFI method aims to enhance brain stroke detection and classification models using facial imaging. Initially, the image pre-processing stage applies the fuzzy-based median filter (FMF) model to eliminate the noise in input image data. Furthermore, fusion models such as Inception-V3 and EfficientNet-B0 perform the feature extraction. Moreover, the hybrid of convolutional neural network and bidirectional long short-term memory (CNN-BiLSTM) model is employed for the brain stroke classification process. Finally, the multi-objective sailfish optimization (MOSFO)-based hyperparameter selection process is carried out to optimize the classification outcomes of the CNN-BiLSTM model. The simulation validation of the ENDDFTL-ABSPFI technique is investigated under the Kaggle dataset concerning various measures. The comparative evaluation of the ENDDFTL-ABSPFI technique portrayed a superior accuracy value of 98.60% over existing methods.
