Edge Deep Learning in Computer Vision and Medical Diagnostics: A Comprehensive Survey

Edge deep learning, a paradigm change reconciling edge computing and deep learning, facilitates real-time decision making attuned to environmental factors through the close integration of computational resources and data sources. Here we provide a comprehensive review of the current state of the art in edge deep learning, focusing on computer vision applications, in particular medical diagnostics. An overview of the foundational principles and technical advantages of edge deep learning is presented, emphasising the capacity of this technology to revolutionise a wide range of domains. Furthermore, we present a novel categorisation of edge hardware platforms based on performance and usage scenarios, facilitating platform selection and operational effectiveness. Following this, we dive into approaches to effectively implement deep neural networks on edge devices, encompassing methods such as lightweight design and model compression. Reviewing practical applications in the fields of computer vision in general and medical diagnostics in particular, we demonstrate the profound impact edge-deployed deep learning models can have in real-life situations. Finally, we provide an analysis of potential future directions and obstacles to the adoption of edge deep learning, with the intention to stimulate further investigations and advancements of intelligent edge deep learning solutions. This survey provides researchers and practitioners with a comprehensive reference shedding light on the critical role deep learning plays in the advancement of edge computing applications.

Fully Elman Neural Network: A Novel Deep Recurrent Neural Network Optimized by an Improved Harris Hawks Algorithm for Classification of Pulmonary Arterial Wedge Pressure

Heart failure (HF) is one of the most prevalent life-threatening cardiovascular diseases in which 6.5 million people are suffering in the USA and more than 23 million worldwide. Mechanical circulatory support of HF patients can be achieved by implanting a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) into HF patients as a bridge to transplant, recovery or destination therapy and can be controlled by measurement of normal and abnormal pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (PAWP). While there are no commercial long-term implantable pressure sensors to measure PAWP, real-time non-invasive estimation of abnormal and normal PAWP becomes vital. In this work, first an improved Harris Hawks optimizer algorithm called HHO+ is presented and tested on 24 unimodal and multimodal benchmark functions. Second, a novel fully Elman neural network (FENN) is proposed to improve the classification performance. Finally, four novel 18-layer deep learning methods of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with multi-layer perceptron (CNN-MLP), CNN with Elman neural networks (CNN-ENN), CNN with fully Elman neural networks (CNN-FENN), and CNN with fully Elman neural networks optimized by HHO+ algorithm (CNN-FENN-HHO+) for classification of abnormal and normal PAWP using estimated HVAD pump flow were developed and compared. The estimated pump flow was derived by a non-invasive method embedded into the commercial HVAD controller. The proposed methods are evaluated on an imbalanced clinical dataset using 5-fold cross-validation. The proposed CNN-FENN-HHO+ method outperforms the proposed CNN-MLP, CNN-ENN and CNN-FENN methods and improved the classification performance metrics across 5-fold cross-validation. The proposed methods can reduce the likelihood of hazardous events like pulmonary congestion and ventricular suction for HF patients and notify identified abnormal cases to the hospital, clinician and cardiologist.
