Abstract
By carefully analyzing latent image properties, content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems are able to recover pertinent images without relying on text descriptions, natural language tags, or keywords related to the image. This search procedure makes it quite easy to automatically retrieve images in huge, well-balanced datasets. However, in the medical field, such datasets are usually not available. This study proposed an advanced DL technique to enhance the accuracy of image retrieval in complex medical datasets. The proposed model can be integrated into five stages, namely pre-processing, decomposing the images, feature extraction, dimensionality reduction, and classification with an image retrieval mechanism. The hybridized Wavelet-Hadamard Transform (HWHT) was utilized to obtain both low and high frequency detail for analysis. In order to extract the main characteristics, the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) was employed. Furthermore, to minimize feature complexity, Sine chaos based artificial rabbit optimization (SCARO) was utilized. By employing the Bhattacharyya Coefficient for improved similarity matching, the Bhattacharya Context performance aware global attention-based Transformer (BCGAT) improves classification accuracy. The experimental results proved that the COVID-19 Chest X-ray image dataset attained higher accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-Score of 99.5%, 97.1%, 97.1%, and 97.1%, 97.1%, respectively. However, the chest x-ray image (pneumonia) dataset has attained higher accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score values of 98.60%, 98.49%, 97.40%, and 98.50%, respectively. For the NIH chest X-ray dataset, the accuracy value is 99.67%.
