Across the globe, heart diseases rank as the top cause of death, with their incidence steadily rising. However, early detection before a cardiac event (e.g., cardiac arrest) remains a significant challenge. Although the healthcare sector possesses extensive data on heart disease, the effective use of this data for timely detection is essential to protect from such events. This paper proposes an innovative approach using fuzzy logic (FL), convolutional neural network (CNN) models, and feature selection to more accurately assess the risk of heart attacks. Our study also emphasizes the importance of data preprocessing, including data transformation, cleaning, and normalization, to facilitate th... More >

Cataracts are a leading cause of blindness in Pakistan, contributing to more than 54% of cases due to poor living condition, nutritional deficiencies, and limited healthcare access. Early detection is critical to avoid invasive treatments,but current diagnostic approaches often identify cataracts at advanced stages. This paper presents an advanced,automated cataract detection system using deep learning specifically the ResNet-50 architecture, to address this gap. The model processes fundus retinal images curated from diverse datasets, classified by ophthalmologic experts through a rigorous three-stage process. By leveraging the ResNet-50 model, cataracts are categorized into normal,moderate,... More >
