The Next Chapter in Wound Analysis: Introducing a Hybrid Model for Improved Segmentation With the help of Deep Convolutional Neural Network

Abstract

Information on typical healing from wounds and the progressions related to chronic wounds have progressed fundamentally. Unmistakable attributes are distinguished through fundamental and clinical examinations found in non-healing wounds, including bacterial and development factor uneven characters, expanded provocative reactions, and proteolytic powers that influence the equilibrium toward tissue corruption instead of fix. A constant non-healing wound is regularly associated with comorbidities like diabetes, vascular shortages, hypertension, and ongoing kidney sickness. As a result, wound segmentation is crucial for wound monitoring and wound healing. Current image segmentation methods include those that depend on standard image processing as well as those based on deep neural networks. Among others, instead of using vast quantities of labelled data, traditional approaches use artificial picture characteristics to finish the work faster. Deep neural network techniques can extract picture characteristics without artificial design, so they require training data. To segregate wound areas from images, presented a proposed model (M- Vgg19-Unet) in this article. The focus of the model is to get intensive accuracy and collect a wound image dataset to train and test the model from a recent work that had 1109 images of foot ulcers. The proposed model achieved a 92.02% dice score which is higher than the using model of this study and some existing works.
