Deep Learning for Biomedical Data Analysis

Abstract

Content-based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system uses the visual information and features present within an image, to find the most analogous images from any gigantic digital image data-set effectively and efficiently, as per the users requirements. Nowadays, the immense advancements in the field of Digital Imaging have exponentially increased the real-time applications of the CBIR techniques. Researchers around the globe are using different CBIR techniques in the field of education, defense, agriculture, remote sensing, satellite imaging, biomedical research, clinical care, and medical imaging. The Major objectives of this chapter are to provide a brief introduction to the different CBIR techniques and their applications on medical image retrieval. This chapter mainly focuses on the current Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) techniques to address the different issues and limitations of the traditional retrieval systems. Initially, we have discussed the different hand-crafted image features based retrieval systems to understand the perspectives of this research field. Here, we aim to congregate the weaknesses and constraints of the conventional retrieval systems and respective solutions with the help of the advanced DL algorithms. Researchers have suggested several CBIR techniques to improve the efficiency of the retrieval of medical images. In this chapter, a review of some state-of-the-art retrieval techniques and respective future research directions are provided.
