A Diagnostic Model for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Using Metaheuristics and Deep Learning Methods

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) severity is determined by the presence and ratios of blast cells (abnormal white blood cells) in both bone marrow and peripheral blood. Manual diagnosis of this disease is a tedious and time-consuming operation, making it difficult for professionals to accurately examine blast cell characteristics. To address this difficulty, researchers use deep learning and machine learning. In this paper, a ResNet-based feature extractor is utilized to detect ALL, along with a variety of feature selectors and classifiers. To get the best results, a variety of transfer learning models, including the Resnet, VGG, EfficientNet, and DensNet families, are used as deep feature extractors. Following extraction, different feature selectors are used, including Genetic algorithm, PCA, ANOVA, Random Forest, Univariate, Mutual information, Lasso, XGB, Variance, and Binary ant colony. After feature qualification, a variety of classifiers are used, with MLP outperforming the others. The recommended technique is used to categorize ALL and HEM in the selected dataset which is C-NMC 2019. This technique got an impressive 90.71% accuracy and 95.76% sensitivity for the relevant classifications, and its metrics on this dataset outperformed others.

Convergence Rates and Decoupling in Linear Stochastic Approximation Algorithms

Almost sure convergence rates for linear algorithms $h_{k+1} = h_k +\frac{1}{k^χ} (b_k-A_kh_k)$ are studied, where $χ\in(0,1)$, $\{A_{k}\}_{k=1}^\infty$ are symmetric, positive semidefinite random matrices and $\{b_{k}\}_{k=1}^\infty$ are random vectors. It is shown that $|h_n- A^{-1}b|=o(n^{-γ})$ a.s. for the $γ\in[0,χ)$, positive definite $A$ and vector $b$ such that $\frac{1}{n^{χ-γ}}\sum\limits_{k=1}^n (A_{k}- A)\to 0$ and $\frac{1}{n^{χ-γ}}\sum\limits_{k=1}^n (b_k-b)\to 0$ a.s. When $χ-γ\in\left(\frac12,1\right)$, these assumptions are implied by the Marcinkiewicz strong law of large numbers, which allows the $\{A_k\}$ and $\{b_k\}$ to have heavy-tails, long-range dependence or both. Finally, corroborating experimental outcomes and decreasing-gain design considerations are provided.

Marcinkiewicz Law of Large Numbers for Outer-products of Heavy-tailed, Long-range Dependent Data

The Marcinkiewicz Strong Law, $\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{n^{\frac1p}}\sum_{k=1}^n (D_{k}- D)=0$ a.s. with $p\in(1,2)$, is studied for outer products $D_k=X_k\overline{X}_k^T$, where $\{X_k\},\{\overline{X}_k\}$ are both two-sided (multivariate) linear processes ( with coefficient matrices $(C_l), (\overline{C}_l)$ and i.i.d.\ zero-mean innovations $\{Ξ\}$, $\{\overlineΞ\}$). Matrix sequences $C_l$ and $\overline{C}_l$ can decay slowly enough (as $|l|\to\infty$) that $\{X_k,\overline{X}_k\}$ have long-range dependence while $\{D_k\}$ can have heavy tails. In particular, the heavy-tail and long-range-dependence phenomena for $\{D_k\}$ are handled simultaneously and a new decoupling property is proved that shows the convergence rate is determined by the worst of the heavy-tails or the long-range dependence, but not the combination. The main result is applied to obtain Marcinkiewicz Strong Law of Large Numbers for stochastic approximation, non-linear functions forms and autocovariances.
