Transformer-CNN Fused Architecture for Enhanced Skin Lesion Segmentation

The segmentation of medical images is important for the improvement and creation of healthcare systems, particularly for early disease detection and treatment planning. In recent years, the use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and other state-of-the-art methods has greatly advanced medical image segmentation. However, CNNs have been found to struggle with learning long-range dependencies and capturing global context due to the limitations of convolution operations. In this paper, we explore the use of transformers and CNNs for medical image segmentation and propose a hybrid architecture that combines the ability of transformers to capture global dependencies with the ability of CNNs to capture low-level spatial details. We compare various architectures and configurations and conduct multiple experiments to evaluate their effectiveness.

A Discussion on Influence of Newspaper Headlines on Social Media

Newspaper headlines contribute severely and have an influence on the social media. This work studies the durability of impact of verbs and adjectives on headlines and determine the factors which are responsible for its nature of influence on the social media. Each headline has been categorized into positive, negative or neutral based on its sentiment score. Initial results show that intensity of a sentiment nature is positively correlated with the social media impression. Additionally, verbs and adjectives show a relation with the sentiment scores
