Automated landmark-based cat facial analysis and its applications.

Facial landmarks, widely studied in human affective computing, are beginning to gain interest in the animal domain. Specifically, landmark-based geometric morphometric methods have been used to objectively assess facial expressions in cats, focusing on pain recognition and the impact of breed-specific morphology on facial signaling. These methods employed a 48-landmark scheme grounded in cat facia...

Securing healthcare medical image information using advance morphological component analysis, information hiding systems, and hybrid convolutional neural networks on IoMT.

Health care images contain a variety of imaging information that has specific features, which can make it challenging to assess and decide on the methods necessitated to safeguard the highly classified visuals from unauthorized exposure during transmission in a communication channel. As a result, this proposed approach utilizes a variety of techniques that will enhance the quality of textual healt...
