A new methodology to automatically extract features from mammograms and classify them is presented. It relies on a hybrid processing system that sequentially uses the discrete cosine transform (DCT) to obtain the high frequency component of the mammogram and then applies the Radon transform to the obtained DCT image in order to extract its directional features. The features are subsequently fed to a support vector machine for classification. The approach was tested on a database of one hundred images and shows improved classification accuracy in comparison to using the discrete cosine transform or the Radon transform alone, as done in others works.

This study proposes an automated system for assessing lung damage severity in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients using computed tomography (CT) images. These preprocessed CT images identify the extent of pulmonary parenchyma (PP) and ground-glass opacity and pulmonary infiltrates (GGO-PIs). Two types of images-saliency () image and discrete cosine transform (DCT) energy image-were generated from these images.

In the era of the Internet of Things (IoT), the transmission of medical reports in the form of scan images for collaborative diagnosis is vital for any telemedicine network. In this context, ensuring secure transmission and communication is necessary to protect medical data to maintain privacy. To address such privacy concerns and secure medical images against cyberattacks, this research presents a robust hybrid encryption framework that integrates quantum, and classical cryptographic methods.

Generating high quality histopathology images like immunohistochemistry (IHC) stained images is essential for precise diagnosis and the advancement of computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) systems. Producing IHC images in laboratory is quite expensive and time consuming. Recently, some attempts have been made based on artificial intelligence techniques (particularly, deep learning) to generate IHC images.

Viruses are submicroscopic agents that can infect other lifeforms and use their hosts' cells to replicate themselves. Despite having simplistic genetic structures among all living beings, viruses are highly adaptable, resilient, and capable of causing severe complications in their hosts' bodies. Due to their multiple transmission pathways, high contagion rate, and lethality, viruses pose the biggest biological threat both animal and plant species face.

In recent years, the introduction of memristors in discrete chaotic map has attracted much attention due to its enhancement of the complexity and controllability of chaotic maps, especially in the fields of secure communication and random number generation, which have shown promising applications. In this work, a three-dimensional discrete memristive hyperchaotic map (3D-DMCHM) based on cosine memristor is constructed. First, we analyze the fixed points of the map and their stability, showing that the map can either have a linear fixed point or none at all, and the stability depends on the parameters and initial state of the map.
