Background: The identification of infection in diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) is challenging due to variability within classes, visual similarity between classes, reduced contrast with healthy skin, and presence of artifacts. Existing studies focus on visual characteristics and tissue classification rather than infection detection, critical for assessing DFUs and predicting amputation risk.

Objective: To address these challenges, this study proposes a deep learning model using a hybrid CNN and Swin Transformer architecture for infection classification in DFU images.

In this paper, a new approach for Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has been addressed by extracting colour, gray, advanced texture, and shape features for input query images. Contour-based shape feature extraction methods and image moment extraction techniques are used to extract the shape features and shape invariant features. The informative features are selected from extracted features and combined colour, gray, texture, and shape features by using PSO.

Wireless capsule endoscopy is a noninvasive wireless imaging technology that becomes increasingly popular in recent years. One of the major drawbacks of this technology is that it generates a large number of photos that must be analyzed by medical personnel, which takes time. Various research groups have proposed different image processing and machine learning techniques to classify gastrointestinal tract diseases in recent years.

Traditional screening of cervical cancer type classification majorly depends on the pathologist's experience, which also has less accuracy. Colposcopy is a critical component of cervical cancer prevention. In conjunction with precancer screening and treatment, colposcopy has played an essential role in lowering the incidence and mortality from cervical cancer over the last 50 years.
