Fusion Based Tongue Color Image Analysis Model for Biomedical Applications

Tongue diagnosis is a novel and non-invasive approach commonly employed to carry out the supplementary diagnosis over the globe.Recently,several deep learning(DL)based tongue color image analysis models have existed in the literature for the effective detection of diseases.This paper presents a fusion of handcrafted with deep features based tongue color image analysis(FHDF-TCIA)technique to biomedical applications.The proposed FDHF-TCIA technique aims to investigate the tongue images using fusion model,and thereby determines the existence of disease.Primarily,the FHDF-TCIA technique comprises Gaussian filtering based preprocessing to eradicate the noise.The proposed FHDF-TCIA model encompasses a fusion of handcrafted local binary patterns(LBP)withMobileNet based deep features for the generation of optimal feature vectors.In addition,the political optimizer based quantum neural network(PO-QNN)based classification technique has been utilized for determining the proper class labels for it.A detailed simulation outcomes analysis of the FHDF-TCIA technique reported the higher accuracy of 0.992.
