Abstract

Highlights: NIH chest X-ray image dataset is gathered through Kaggle repository to diagnose the lung disease. Chests X-ray images are pre-processed by using the contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization filtering method. In the feature extraction process, the empirical wavelet transform method is used. These extracted features are given into Self-Attention based Generative Adversarial Capsule classifier for detecting the lung disease. The hyper parameters of SA-Caps GAN classifier is optimized using Sun flower Optimization Algorithm. Abstract: Lung cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in one or both lungs. This is one of the dangerous diseases. A lot of feature extraction with classification methods were discussed previously regarding this disease, but none of the methods give sufficient results, not only that, those methods have high over fitting problem, as a result, the detection accuracy was minimizing. Therefore, to overcome these issues, a Lung Disease Detection using Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Capsule Network optimized with Sun flower Optimization Algorithm (SA-Caps GAN-SFOA-LDC) is proposed in this manuscript. Initially, NIH chest X-ray image dataset is gathered through Kaggle repository to diagnose the lung disease. Then, the chests X-ray images are pre-processed by using the contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) filtering method to eliminate the noise and to enhance the image quality. These pre-processed outputs are fed to feature extraction process. In the feature extraction process, the empirical wavelet transform method is used. These extracted features are given into Self-Attention based Generative Adversarial Capsule classifier for detecting the lung disease. The hyper parameters of SA-Caps GAN classifier is optimized using Sun flower Optimization Algorithm. The simulation is implemented in MATLAB. The proposed SA-Caps GAN-SFOA-LDC method attains higher accuracy 21.05%, 33.28%, 30.27%, 29.68%, 32.57% and 44.28%, Higher Precision 30.24%, 35.68%, 32.08%, 41.27%, 28.57% and 34.20%, Higher F-Score 32.05%, 31.05%, 36.24%, 30.27%, 37.59% and 22.05% analyzed with the existing methods, SVM-SMO-LDC, CNN-MOSHO-LDC, XGboost-PSO-LDC respectively.
