Whale Optimization-Driven Generative Convolutional Neural Network Framework for Anaemia Detection from Blood Smear Images

Anaemia is a frequent blood disorder marked by a reduction in the quantity of haemoglobin or the number of red blood cells in the blood. Quick and accurate anaemia detection is crucial for fast action and effective treatment. In this research, we provide a new structure called Whale Optimization-Driven Generative Convolutional Neural Network (WO-GCNN) for the detection of anaemia using blood smear pictures. To increase anaemia detection accuracy, the WO-GCNN system combines the strength of generative models and convolutional neural networks (CNNs). In order to create artificial blood smear images and learn the underlying data distribution, generative models, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), are used. Improve the functionality of the WO-GCNN system by applying the Whale Optimisation Algorithm (WOA), which is based on the hunting behaviours of humpback whales. To create the optimal set of CNN weights, the WOA effectively achieves a compromise between exploitation and exploration. The WO-GCNN framework accelerates convergence speed and increases overall performance of anaemia detection by incorporating the WOA into the training process. On a sizable dataset of blood smear pictures obtained from clinical settings, we assess the suggested WO-GCNN system. A highly accurate and effective approach for the early identification of anaemia is produced by combining generative models and CNNs with the WOA optimisation. By enabling early anaemia identification, the proposed WO-GCNN framework has the potential to have a substantial impact on the field of medical image analysis and enhance patient care. It can be a useful tool for medical personnel, supporting them in making decisions and giving anaemia patients urgent interventions.
