Intelligent System for Skin Disease Detection of Dogs with Ontology Based Clinical Information Extraction
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022-10-29) Rathnayaka, R. M. N. A; Anuththara, K. G. S. N; Wickramasinghe, R.J.P; Gimhana, P. S; Weerasinghe, L; Wimalaratne, G
The largest organ in dogs, the epidermis, is crucial in supplying immunological responses. Skin will preserve all the nutrients and safeguard the cells while warding off harmful or pathogenic substances. Most dog owners today are not aware that their pet dog has a skin condition. Although they were aware of these ailments, they had no notion of how to cure them. In such a situation, the dog may experience pain and an aggravation of the condition. Owners should therefore take their dogs to the vet, even if the skin condition is minor. It can, however, be a costly procedure. There aren't many forums where dog owners may get advice from professionals and ask inquiries regarding their pets. The solution suggests a fully functional mobile application which is a combination of disease identification feature, disease severity level detection feature, domain specific knowledge base with semantic web development and a domain specific AI based chat-bot to the dog owners to overcome this problem using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and natural language processing (NLP).System will extract the necessary features from the images of the lesion to classify the skin condition and Severity level of the disease. The results obtained show disease type classification is within the accuracy range of 77.78% to 100% which tested again 4 CNN base models. As for the severity level identification accuracy situated around 99.62%.

Arogya -An Intelligent Ayurvedic Herb Management Platform
(IEEE, 2020-11-04) Pathiranage, N; Nilfa, N; Nithmali, M; Kumari, N; Weerasinghe, L; Weerathunga, I
Ayurvedic means a science of life and well-being with its unique approaches to social and spiritual life. Especially in Sri Lanka we have our own set of rare Ayurvedic herbs which have been utilized by generations as medicinal treatments for a variety of diseases. Absence of specialists in this area makes proper identification as well as classification of valuable herbal plants a tedious task, which is essential for better treatment. Hence, a fully automated system for herb detection and classification, information visualization regarding them is highly desirable. There are existing applications which can identify plants with low prediction accuracies, as well as to give information regarding them. However, these applications are based on foreign plant data sets that do not include valuable herbs and shrubs with medicinal qualities. Hence this research proposes an application unique to medicinal plants, which can perform all these functionalities in both online and offline approach. Here, a new Ayurvedic plant dataset prepared from scratch, and preliminary results for classification of 5 types of herbs, compared with several deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models based on transfer learning are presented. Experimental results indicate Marker-based Watershed algorithm as the best object detection algorithm in a complex background, VGG-16 as the best deep CNN classification model which reached a promising testing accuracy of 99.53%, and Seq2Seq LSTM model as the best deep learning model with optimum accuracy in abstractive information summarization.
