Male infertility contributes substantially to the global infertility burden, and sperm analysis remains central to diagnosis, treatment planning, and assisted reproductive technology. Conventional semen evaluation, however, is labor-intensive, operator-dependent, and limited by inter- and intra-observer variability, motivating the development of objective and reproducible computational approaches.

STA‑Net is a lightweight neural network designed for plant disease classification on edge devices. It combines a training‑free neural architecture search (DeepMAD) to build an efficient backbone with a novel Shape‑Texture Attention Module (STAM) that separates shape and texture processing using deformable convolutions and a Gabor filter bank. On the CCMT plant disease dataset, STA‑Net achieved 89.00% accuracy and 88.96% F1 score with only 401K parameters and 51.1M FLOPs.

The paper introduces an attention‑guided fusion framework that combines global and lesion‑focused local information for image classification. Using a three‑branch architecture built on DenseNet‑121, the model generates attention maps with Grad‑CAM, refines local features with CBAM, and adaptively fuses the two representations. Experiments on synthetic and real datasets, including skin, guava leaf, and grape leaf images, show that the fusion branch outperforms individual branches, achieving up to 97.75% accuracy on skin lesions and 99.64% on guava leaves.
