ODD-Net: a hybrid deep learning architecture for image dehazing.

Haze can significantly reduce visibility and contrast of images captured outdoors, necessitating the enhancement of images. This degradation in image quality can adversely affect various applications, including autonomous driving, object detection, and surveillance, where poor visibility may lead to navigation errors and obscure crucial details. Existing dehazing techniques face several challenges: spatial methods tend to be computationally heavy, transform methods often fall short in quality, hybrid methods can be intricate and demanding, and deep learning methods require extensive datasets and computational power.

A Cross-sectional Study on the Aetiology and Predisposing Factors of Hoarseness of Voice.

The primary objective of the study was to find out the aetiology of hoarseness and analyse people with hoarseness based on socio-demographic profile like age, gender, occupation and socio-economic status. Secondary objective was to find out the predisposing factors of hoarseness and to see their association between benign and malignant causes of hoarseness. The study was conducted for a period of one and half years in 178 patients who were above the age of 18 years of age and presented with hoarseness lasting for more than 2 weeks to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology.
