A Dataset-Centric Benchmark of Deep Learning Methods for Grape Leaf Disease Classification and Detection

The paper introduces a dataset‑centric benchmark for deep learning approaches to grape leaf disease classification and detection. It evaluates publicly available datasets on disease categories, annotations, acquisition conditions, and class distributions, and tests representative models across image‑level classification, region‑level classification, and object detection. Results reveal high accuracy on controlled datasets but significant performance drops on heterogeneous, real‑world data, especially in cross‑dataset transfer and object detection tasks.

Coarse to Fine: Iterative Adversarial Neural Cellular Automata for Medical Image Synthesis

The paper introduces StyleGANCA, a lightweight neural cellular automata (NCA) based generative adversarial network designed for medical image synthesis. By combining a StyleGAN-inspired mapping network with adaptive style modulation in a multi-scale NCA framework, the model achieves high-quality image generation with far fewer parameters than existing adversarial, variational, diffusion, and NCA baselines. Experiments on BloodMNIST and PathMNIST show competitive FID and KID scores, and the synthetic images preserve class-specific information, effectively supporting downstream multi-class classifier training.

Does DCGAN-Based Synthetic Augmentation Improve Brain Tumor MRI Classification? An Empirical Study

This study examined whether augmenting brain tumor MRI datasets with class‑specific DCGAN‑generated images improves classification performance. Using 7,200 scans across four tumor categories, a Swin Transformer classifier trained on real images alone achieved 96% accuracy, identical to the model trained with 500 synthetic images per class. Metrics such as macro F1 and ROC‑AUC showed no improvement, and FID scores indicated substantial distributional differences between real and synthetic images.
