    Classification of Canine Maturity and Bone Fracture Time Based on X-Ray Images of Long Bones
    (2021) Ergun, Gulnur Begum; Guney, Selda; 0000-0002-0573-1326; 0000-0001-8469-5484
    Veterinarians use X-rays for almost all examinations of clinical fractures to determine the appropriate treatment. Before treatment, vets need to know the date of the injury, type of the broken bone, and age of the dog. The maturity of the dog and the time of the fracture affects the approach to the fracture site, the surgical procedure and needed materials. This comprehensive study has three main goals: determining the maturity of the dogs (Task 1), dating fractures (Task 2), and finally, detecting fractures of the long bones in dogs (Task 3). The most popular deep neural networks are used: AlexNet, ResNet-50 and GoogLeNet. One of the most popular machine learning algorithms, support vector machines (SVM), is used for comparison. The performance of all sub-studies is evaluated using accuracy and F1 score. Each task has been successful with different network architecture. ResNet-50, AlexNet and GoogLeNet are the most successful algorithms for the three tasks, with F1 scores of 0.75, 0.80 and 0.88, respectively. Data augmentation is performed to make models more robust, and the F1 scores of the three tasks were 0.80, 0.81, and 0.89 using ResNet-50, which is the most successful model. This preliminary work can be developed into support tools for practicing veterinarians that will make a difference in the treatment of dogs with fractured bones. Considering the lack of work in this interdisciplinary field, this paper may lead to future studies.

    Automated Tuberculosis Detection Using Pre-Trained CNN and SVM
    (2021) Oltu, Burcu; Guney, Selda; Dengiz, Berna; Agildere, Muhtesem
    Tuberculosis (TB) is a dreadfully contagious and life-threatening disease if left untreated. Therefore, early and accurate diagnosis is critical for treatment. Today, invasive, expensive, or time-consuming tests are performed for diagnosis. Unfortunately, accurate TB diagnosis is still a major challenge. In the proposed study, a decision support system that can automatically separate normal and TB chest X-ray (CXR) images is presented for objective and accurate diagnosis. In the presented methodology, first various data augmentation methods were applied to the data set, then pre-trained networks (VGG16, MobileNet), were employed as feature extractors from augmented CXR's. Afterward, the extracted features for all images were fed into a support vector machine classifier. In training process, 5-fold cross-validation was applied. As a result of this classification, it was concluded that TB can be diagnosed with an accuracy of 96,6% and an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0,99.
