Initial diagnosis using blood smear pictures (BSP) is crucial b ut challenging due to the similar indications and symptoms of ALL, often leading to misdiagnoses. This study presents a custom approach using Con v oluti onal Neural Netw orks (CNNs) to detect all cases and cate gorize subtypes. Utilizing publicly a v ailable databases, the study includes 3562 blood smear images from 89 patients. The in- no v ati v e combination of U-Net for se gmentation and v arious CNN architectures (U-Net, MobileNetV2, InceptionV3, ResNet50, N ASNet) for feature e xtraction, with DenseNet201 being the most ef fecti v e, forms the core of this method. The U-Net model achie v ed a se gmentation ac curac y of 98% by recognizing patterns within blood smear images. F ollo wing se gmentation, CNN architectures e x- tracted high-le v el features, with DenseNet201 pro ving the most ef fecti v e in di- agnostic and classication tasks. Our proposed custom CNN model achie v ed a test accurac y of 98%, wi th a training accurac y of 99.31% and v alidation ac- curac y of 97.09%. This approach enables an accurate distinction between ALL and non-pathologic cases. This is an open access article under the CC BY -SA license .

INTR ODUCTION Acute lymphoblastic leuk emia (ALL) is a highly common type of cancer that requires careful and sometimes in v asi v e diagnostic methods to identify it accurately . Precise identication of ALL especially dur - ing its initial phases, is crucial for prompt interv ention and ef cient treatment. Peripheral blood smear (PBS) [1] images are highly important diagnostic tools that pro vide v aluable information about cellular abnormalities that indicate the presence of leukaemia. The manual reading of PBS [2] images to e xplore decided disease issues is af fected by the v ast problems related to the risk of wrong diagnosis that may result from the lo w and ambiguous features of the patient’ s signs. Bad interpretations could cause patients to appear too often, leading to misdiagnosis and less ef fecti v e treatments, xing the w ors t-case situations and increasing the b urden on the healthcare system. Here with proposed is an approach to creating a cutting-edge tool which will enable the classication and precis e diagnosis of all breakpoints and ALL subtypes e xploiting cutting-edge deep learning approaches. This project aims to apply ALL detecti on to PBS pictures more automatically and to di vide the J ournal homepage: http://ijeecs.iaescor e .com Evaluation Warning : The document was created with Spire.PDF for Python.

The whole project goal is to de v elop a thorough and easily man- ageable dataset that contains pictures from people diagnosed with ALL [4], acute lymphoid leukaemia. This dataset presents dif ferent types of scenarios including those that are considered harmless from the population haematogone syndrome as wel l as the conrmed occurrence of the ALL subtypes [5], which i n turn gi v es a chance for an ef fecti v e assessment of the training model and e v aluation. In addition to that, the grouping of PBS [6] images using dif ferent hue threshold techniques in the HSV colour space, percei v ed as the preliminary step for the meticulous feature e xtraction, lays the foundat ion for a high le v el of accurac y in the prediction. This research mak es a comparati v e study of CNN architectures that are cataloged as the best ones, that is, U-Net, MobileNetV2, InceptionV3, ResNet50 and V iT and N ASNet. The results demonstrate the best of Dens eNet201 performance (diagnosis and classication tasks) that is e vidently superior to the others. The k e y contrib utions of this study are: Introduce a no v el approach for ALL diagnoses by con v olutional neural netw orks (CNNs) for precise classication. Utilization of PBS images for reducing the risk of misdiagnosis associated with manual interpretation.

RELA TION W ORK ALL classication using CNN and transfer learning has sho wn promising results in impro ving ef - cienc y and accurac y in identifying leuk emia cells. Khuzaie et al. [7] discusses using a V GG19-based CNN model for detecting ALL cells. The paper focuses on de v eloping an ef cient V GG19-based model for detect- ing ALL. Deep learning t echniques can streamline the identication of leukaemia cells and impro v e patient outcomes. Das et al. [8] proposes a model for classifying and detecting ALL using transfer learning and an orthogonal SoftMax layer (OSL)-based classication. Demonstrates superior performance on ALLIDB1, AL- LIDB2, and CNMC2019 datasets.The paper proposes a model for detecting and classifying acute leuk emia. The model combines ResNet18 with an orthogonal SoftMax layer for impro v ed performance. Ahammed et al. [9] proposes an ef cient transfer -learning-based CNN model using Inception-V3 architecture to classify ALL from microscopic images. Also, Hau et al. [10] proposes a h ybrid transfer learning eXtreme gradient boosting (HTL-XGB) algorithm for the classication and detection of ALL using CNNs and transfer learning. Object detection methodology using image processing techniques with HTL-XGB architecture. Gautam et al. [11] introduced a classication method for WBCs that combines the Nai v e Bayes classier with morphological fea- tures. The characteristics the researchers emplo yed to train their system included area, perimeter , eccentricity , and circularity . The accurac y of the proposed method w as made up of 80.88 percent. The process of manually classifying acute lymphoblastic leuk emia is laborious and t ime-intensi v e. The proposed procedure emplo ying Mask R-CNN attains a classication accurac y of 83.72%. Se gmentation of instances utilizing mask R-CNN Method for enhancing contrast in an image dataset [12]. Recent in v estig ations into classifying malignancies ha v e relied hea vily on computer vision me thods [13]-[16]. The predominant algorithm ut ilized in this methodology comprises multiple e v aluations that fol- lo w image pre-processing, clustering, morphological ltering, se gmentation, feature e xtraction or selection, and classication [17]. These are rigid phases. Due to the diagnostic importance of blood cell classication, numerous algorithms for classifying blood cells ha v e been proposed by scientists. Sinha and Ramakrishnan V OLUME XX, 2018 classied cells with a 94.1% recognition rate using SVM in [18]. The researchers con- ducted the identical e xperiments using one hundred images. The researchers em plo yed the method with the smallest error rate to classify the se gmented cells using an adapti v e contour and automatic threshold. The resulting recogniti on rate w as 96%. The researchers put the KNN algorithm to use. Ne v ertheless, the KNN algorithm struggles to process unbalanced samples. Dif culties may arise when the sample capacity of one class is substantial, while that of other classes is relati v ely limited.

Deep con v ol utional neural netw ork w as used to detect acute lymphoblastic leuk emia and classify its subtypes into four classes: L1, L2, L3, and Nor - mal, which were disre g arded in prior studies. Instead of training from scratch, we used pre-trained Ale xNet [20] ne-tuned on our data set.

The Zeiss microscope at 100x magnication w as used to capture blood smear images, which were sa v ed in JPG format. T o mak e it adaptable for the deep learning model, we ha v e standardized images into 224x224 pix els through preprocessing techniques. This preprocessing included applying rotation, contrast adjustment, and se gmentation in the HSV colour space. After the pre- processing data, we implemented the deep learning models and e v aluated the result on the e v aluation metrics. This section also pro vides the dataset description, a concise analysis of the deep learning models, and an e v aluation of the proposed system’ s performance.

Dataset pr e-pr ocessing After completi o n of datas et selection and import for the implementation, we maintain the origi nal ratio, and achie ving consistent data distrib ution through normalization is crucial during the pre-processing stage of image data. T o ac hie v e this, we establish a x ed tar get size parameter of 224x224 pix els, ensuring that all images loaded into the deep-learning model are resized to this size. This is essential since deep-learning models typically require data of a specic size. By standardizing the image shape, we enable the model to process the data ef ciently and with precision. The pre-processing techniques emplo yed in our res earch includes rotation, contrast, ipping, cropping, cutout and brightness pre-processing. 3.3. Deep lear ning models 3.3.1. Customized CNN ar chitectur e The deep learning model designed for image recognition tasks has a customized CNN architec ture. The model includes an input layer specically for RGB images of size 224x224 in Figure 2. It also has con- v olutional layers for feature e xtraction, pooling layers for dimensionality reduction, dropout layers to pre v ent o v ertting, and dense layers for classication. The ReLU acti v ation, batch normalization, and dropout tech- niques are emplo yed in the model’ s architecture to impro v e its performance and generalization. Input layer: (224, 224, 3). The model has a model card that e xpects an image of resoluti on 224x224 with 3 channels (RGB). Con v olutional layers: the model consists of a con v olutional layer of four layers arranged in the sequence and with the ReLU acti v ation function which introduces non-linearity . There are 200 lters in the rst con v olutional layer , 150 lters in the second con v olutional layer , and so on do wn to 50 lters in the fourth con v olutional layer with each layer 3x3 k ernel sizes. The idea of this structure allo ws the netw ork to e xtract characteristics of the image at dif ferent de grees of abstraction. Pooling layers: the rst and second layers are max-pooling layers with a pool size of (4,4). Dropout layers: applied twice with a rate of 0.8, after the rst and third con v olutional layers to pre v ent o v ertting. Flatten layer: this layer transforms the 2D arrays from the pre vious layers into a 1D array , preparing it for the fully connected layers. Fully connected (Dense) layers: after the con v olutional layers, the architecture includes a dense layer with 256 units and ReLU acti v ation, follo wed by batch normalization for stabilized acti v ation and a dropout rate of 0.8 to reduce o v ertting.

The contracting passage looks lik e a simple CNN architectural design that comprises se v eral con v olutional and pooling layers. Each contracting path block, lik e all the others, generally has tw o 3x3 con v olutions, follo wed by a rectied linear unit (ReLU ) acti v ation function and max- pooling with W indo ws sub-sampling size 2x2. This helps capture conte xt and reduce the spatial dimensions sho wn in Figure 3. Figure 3.

It uses up-con v olutional layers (transposed con v olutions or decon v olutions) to boost spatial resolution. Concatenation of contracting and e xpansi v e path feature maps pro vides e xtensi v e localization information. Final layer: the last layer is the most important layer as follo ws: it consists of a 1x1 con v olutional layer and a soft-max acti v ation function with an output of the se gmentation mask composed of pix el-wise classication probabilities from each class.

956 ISSN: 2502-4752 4.1.2. Deep lear ning model classication r esults Precision, recall, and F-score metrics are three approaches to measuring the accurac y of the class ier . Precision estimates the classier’ s ability to nd correct positi v e cases from the real ones. This is calculated by comparing the number of genuine positi v es with the e xpected number of positi v es. The ability of the classier is judged by ho w man y of true-positi v e cases of the actual positi v e class are identied correctly by it and it is called as recall. The estimator of recall is the v alue obtained after di viding the number of the true positi v es by the total number of the actual positi v e cases. Quantifying true positi v e rate for capturing all positi v e samples is mark ed as a performance metric of the classier . The F 1-score, computed as the harmonic mean of precision and recall, which is well-balanced between the performance of each model, is the measure used. 4.2. Results analysis T able 4 sho ws a comparati v e model-by-model analysis which is focused on each model performance across dif ferent metrics, e.g. training accurac y , v alidation accurac y , precision, recall and F1 score. The tailored CNN and ResNet50 are no w the most promising, ha ving attained the highest classication scores ef fecti v e in real-life applications. In addition to MobileNet V2’ s ef fecti v eness, its computational ef cienc y should be mentioned e xplicitly .
