Illustration of the framework of the proposed method. In the first stage, an adversarial image is processed with multiscale analysis: the image will be downsampled by a factor of 1/2 and 1/4, respectively, and upsampled by a factor of 2. Then in the second stage, we design and insert 𝑁 diffusive and denoising aggregation mechanism (DDA) blocks sequentially. Each DDA block involves a diffusive process (Section 3.2), a denoising process (Section 3.3), and an aggregation process (Section 3.4). The output samples from the last DDA block will be inversely processed to the original scale and smoothed to obtain the reversed image.

Skin Cancer AI Combats Adversarial Attacks with MDDA

In recent years, deep learning has revolutionized dermatology by automating skin cancer diagnosis with impressive accuracy. AI-powered systems like convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can now detect melanoma and other lesions with expert-level precision. However, alongside these advancements arises a critical vulnerability: adversarial attacks. These are subtle, often imperceptible image perturbations that can mislead even the […]

LungCT-NET: Revolutionizing Lung Cancer Diagnosis with AI

Introduction: The Urgent Need for Early Lung Cancer Detection Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, accounting for 1.8 million fatalities in 2020 alone. Its deadliness is largely due to late diagnosis, as early-stage symptoms are often indistinct. Detecting malignant lung nodules from CT scans early can significantly improve survival rates. However,
