Abstract
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a brain injury that is caused by improper oxygen/blood flow. None of the existing works have concentrated on detecting HIE based on the sub-acute injury in the brain.
To enhance the accuracy and specificity of HIE detection, a comprehensive approach that includes SAI identification, BGT segmentation, and volume calculation will be utilized.
This study addresses the critical challenge of detecting hypoxic-schemic encephalopathy (HIE) through advanced image processing techniques applied to brain MRI data. The primary research questions focus on the effectiveness of the proposed CO-GW-RNN method in accurately identifying HIE and the impact of incorporating segmentation and clustering processes on detection performance.
The proposed method achieved remarkable results, demonstrating an accuracy of 98.98% and a specificity of 98.17%, significantly outperforming existing techniques such as the RUB classifier (84.6% accuracy) and the DTL method (94.00% accuracy).
These findings validate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology in improving HIE detection in brain MRI images.
