This study introduces a computationally efficient convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture enhanced with transfer learning for multi-cancer detection using biomedical images. The proposed lightweight CNN model is designed to reduce computational complexity while maintaining high classification performance, making it suitable for deployment in resource-constrained environments.
The paper presents a lightweight CNN‑integrated Compact Convolutional Transformer (CCT) designed for multi‑scale feature learning in breast cancer mammography. With only 250,435 parameters, the model achieved 99‑100% accuracy across three datasets using 5‑fold cross‑validation, demonstrating robust generalization. Explainable AI components were added to clarify the classification process, aiming to increase clinical trust in resource‑constrained settings.

The study evaluates lesion‑guided region‑of‑interest (ROI) deep learning for ovarian ultrasound classification, comparing it to global image, lesion contour, and contour‑based radiomics approaches across two public datasets. Using four deep‑learning architectures, the lesion‑guided ROI strategy achieved the highest accuracy (93.10% on MMOTU and 97.56% on OUD) with an AUC of 0.99, while requiring less annotation effort than contour‑based methods.

The article presents a comparative study of convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures for classifying COVID-19 from healthy lung images using CT and X‑ray scans. Multiple pre‑trained models—including VGG, DenseNet, ResNet, MobileNet, Xception, Inception, EfficientNet, and NasNet—were evaluated on two X‑ray and two CT datasets. ResNet and VGG achieved the highest accuracies, ranging from 95% to 98%, outperforming previous reports in the literature.

The study evaluates four deep‑learning segmentation architectures—Unet, PSPNet, Linknet, and FPN—paired with six pre‑trained encoders to predict COVID‑19 lesions in CT images. Experiments on three COVID‑19 CT datasets show high accuracy, achieving a maximum binary F1‑score of 98% and multi‑class F1‑scores of 75% and 77%. The work aims to provide a standardized performance benchmark for medical image segmentation and a reference for other imaging scenarios.

ProtoCAM is an explainable few‑shot learning framework for classifying breast lesions in ultrasound images. It combines mask‑guided feature encoding, prototypical metric learning, and gradient‑based visual explanations to leverage limited annotated data. Evaluated on the BUSI dataset, ProtoCAM achieved a macro F1‑score of 0.910 in a 3‑way 5‑shot setting, outperforming standard supervised CNNs, with ResNet18 reaching 91.65% under 15‑shot conditions.
