Mobile Imaging Solutions for Medical Diagnosis: Trends and Applications

Advances in processing power, camera technologies, and mobile image analysis have made smartphones and other mobile devices, such as laptops, increasingly suitable for medical diagnosis and healthcare applications. Researchers have developed low-cost solutions for the early detection and monitoring of various health conditions, including eye and ENT diseases, malnutrition, heart rate variability, skin and oral conditions, and injuries, using images captured by non-medical devices such as smartphones and webcams. This survey examines existing research on mobile image-based medical diagnosis, with an emphasis on its potential to enable low-cost and accessible healthcare. We comparatively analyze state-of-the-art solutions across different healthcare application categories, examining their advantages and limitations. Based on this analysis, we identify desirable characteristics of mobile image-based diagnostic tools and highlight areas where existing approaches have made progress as well as areas requiring further research. We also discuss application-specific and common challenges and outline directions for future research. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive overview of mobile image-based healthcare solutions and their potential to support low-cost disease diagnosis and monitoring, particularly for underserved populations in remote and resource-constrained settings.

3D-FFS: Faster 3D object detection with Focused Frustum Search in sensor fusion based networks

In this work we propose 3D-FFS, a novel approach to make sensor fusion based 3D object detection networks significantly faster using a class of computationally inexpensive heuristics. Existing sensor fusion based networks generate 3D region proposals by leveraging inferences from 2D object detectors. However, as images have no depth information, these networks rely on extracting semantic features of points from the entire scene to locate the object. By leveraging aggregated intrinsic properties (e.g. point density) of point cloud data, 3D-FFS can substantially constrain the 3D search space and thereby significantly reduce training time, inference time and memory consumption without sacrificing accuracy. To demonstrate the efficacy of 3D-FFS, we have integrated it with Frustum ConvNet (F-ConvNet), a prominent sensor fusion based 3D object detection model. We assess the performance of 3D-FFS on the KITTI dataset. Compared to F-ConvNet, we achieve improvements in training and inference times by up to 62.80% and 58.96%, respectively, while reducing the memory usage by up to 58.53%. Additionally, we achieve 0.36%, 0.59% and 2.19% improvements in accuracy for the Car, Pedestrian and Cyclist classes, respectively. 3D-FFS shows a lot of promise in domains with limited computing power, such as autonomous vehicles, drones and robotics where LiDAR-Camera based sensor fusion perception systems are widely used.
