Many image-processing applications heavily depend on the quality of medical images. Due to the unpredictable variation in the captured images, medical images frequently have problems with noise or low contrast; therefore, improving medical imaging is a challenging task. For better treatment, physicians need images with good contrast to provide the most detailed picture of the disease.

The exponential growth in computer technology throughout the past two decades has facilitated the development of advanced image analysis techniques which aid the field of medical imaging. CT is a widely used medical screening method used to obtain high resolution images of the human body. CT has been proven useful in the screening of the virus that is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic by allowing physicians to rule out suspected infections based on the appearance of the lungs from the CT scan.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how advancements in image manipulation tools have led to increased concerns over digital image forgery, specifically focusing on image splicing, which merges parts of different images.
  • It highlights the limitations of existing detection algorithms that often struggle with high-dimensional feature vectors and aims to enhance detection accuracy using low-dimensional vectors.
  • The research introduces an approximated Machado fractional entropy (AMFE) combined with discrete wavelet transform (DWT) to capture image splicing artifacts effectively, demonstrating improved accuracy in detection through testing on the CASIA v2 dataset.

This paper describes an approach for improving the accuracy of memory-based collaborative filtering, based on the technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method. Recommender systems are used to filter the huge amount of data available online based on user-defined preferences. Collaborative filtering (CF) is a commonly used recommendation approach that generates recommendations based on correlations among user preferences.
