DE-striping Augmented Images of Blood Cells using Deep Convolutional Neural Network

Abstract

The aim of this biomedical image processing-based research paper is to use augmented images of blood sample and Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) for the purpose of de-striping on Hyperion data to de-stripe on multicore platforms GPU. In order to reach our goal, we have started by analyzing the challenges associated with de-striping, Hyperion data and DCNN. A novel implementation pipeline of training, validating and evaluating stating from input an augmented blood image sample with the help analyzing the Hyperion data leading to the de-striping of augmented image blood sample by removing all the kernel black. What is clear is the high importance of applying the adequate pre-processing on Hyperion data because of low signal-to-noise ratio. By comparing the known layers of DCNN model for de-striping augmented images. The results obtained by applying the mentioned methods, it is revealed that all the higher stripes in an image as well as black color has been reduced and entirely associated with the Hyperion data alteration, and in contrast, the Hyperion imagery successfully corresponds to the de-striping of augmented image with an accuracy of 91.89% using DCNN model. The proposed DCNN is capable of reaching high accuracy within 150s after the launch of the evaluation phase and never reaches low accuracy. The pre-trained DCNN model approach would be an adequate solution considering de-striping as its high inference time is lower compared existing available methods which are not as efficient for de-striping.
