The objective of the research work is to detect stroke using CT scan images. In the research work an analysis of 3D CNN method for stroke detection is presented. The work also presents a new method of stroke detection using semi-supervised Adversarial Networks (SGAN).3D CNN is the traditional approach to any type of image classification problem. But being data-hungry, it becomes difficult to use them when data is scarce. High-quality medical data is difficult to find and hence alternative approaches seem worth approaching. The relatively new GANs can generate images like the training images, and its SGAN variant can use these generated images for training the classifier. We investigate the usefulness of SGANs comparatively with CNNs in this paper. The proposed SGAN method is compared with state of art methods in literature using accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. The SGAN method demonstrates an accuracy of 93%, Sensitivity of 100% and Specificity of 90%. For small data sets in medical imaging the proposed SGAN method exhibit an encouraging performance as compared to other methods using large datasets. In the research paper, we propose methodologies for detecting strokes by using 2 approaches: 3D CNNs and SGANs. The relatively new GANs can generate images like the training images, and its SGAN variant can use these generated images for training the classifier. We investigate the usefulness of SGANs comparatively with CNNs in this paper.

This study explores hyperspectral image classification, particularly focusing on spectral unmixing techniques applied to the widely used "PaviaU" dataset. Nine distinct endmembers, representing materials such as Water, Trees, and Shadows, serve as the foundation for our investigation. Introducing a novel linear regression model meticulously tailored for hyperspectral image reconstruction, we aim to address the complexities inherent in such datasets. Our approach leverages a fusion of non-negative least squares (NNLS) and a sum-to-one constraint, employing the Sequential Least Squares Quadratic Programming (SLSQP) method to seek optimal coefficients. Through rigorous experimentation and analysis, our model achieves a mean reconstruction error of 1152.318. The efficacy of our approach lies in its seamless integration of NNLS and SLSQP, customizing a solution to the intricate nuances of hyperspectral data. By significantly reducing reconstruction errors, our method represents a substantial advancement in spectral unmixing techniques. Furthermore, this study produces nine abundance maps for each endmember using least squares with constraints, lasso, and averaging the squared differences between observed and reconstructed spectra for pixels with nonzero class labels to determine reconstruction error. Emphasizing the importance of abundance maps and reconstruction errors, we compare the results obtained through our proposed spectral unmixing methods with those of alternative approaches. This comprehensive analysis not only sheds light on the performance superiority of our proposed methods but also provides valuable insights for practitioners and researchers working with hyperspectral imaging data. By offering enhanced accuracy and efficiency in spectral unmixing, our approach holds significant promise for applications ranging from environmental monitoring to precision agriculture and beyond.
