Fully automated real-time approach for human temperature prediction and COVID-19 detection-based thermal skin face extraction using deep semantic segmentation
Authors: Al-Azzawi Adil , Hussein Mohammed Khaleel 
Published: August 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the coronavirus has affected every country. The World Health Organization has declared it a global health emergency by 2020. Early intervention provides a more effective cure and relieves patients of unnecessary intensive care from hospitals and other healthcare facilities. However, that requires an accurate method for early disease detection. COVID-19 illness may eventually infect people, making it a severe condition. Research shows that COVID-19 pneumonia shares many clinical features with other forms of pneumonia, suggesting that COVID-19 can be a serious condition for those affected. The main symptom of the disease is high body temperature. Noncontact thermal imaging is one of the most important methods for measuring body temperature, although it has some performance limitations. Many of these thermal cameras are privately owned, not widely available, and are often owned by for-profit organizations. In this paper, we propose a real-time method for human temperature prediction and tracking based on facial skin temperature extraction for accurate COVID-19 case detection. The main idea of this paper is to use an automated deep-learning model for thermal skin temperature extraction. The optimization is based on using the deep semantic segmentation approach for fully automated thermal skin binary mask prediction using the thermal video only. The predicted mask is projected onto the original thermal video to extract the thermal skin mask, which is used to calculate the average thermal skin face temperature. The proposed deep semantic segmentation model is trained on the thermal skin binary mask dataset that is generated by using our first model a fully automated unsupervised learning approach for camera calibration and thermal skin binary mask extraction. The experimental results show that the proposed approach can automatically predict better binary skin-mak than our first model which leads to a very high-efficiency human temperature tracking using thermal videos only compared with the Ground Truth using the Speaking Faces thermal datasets.

Background: Presenilin 1 ( PSEN1) is one of the genes linked to the prevalence of early onset Alzheimer’s disease. In mice, inactivation of Psen1 leads to developmental defects, including vertebral malformation and neural development. However, little is known about the role of PSEN1 during the development in other species. Objective: To investigate the role of PSEN1 in vertebral development and the pathogenic mechanism of neurodegeneration using a pig model. Methods: CRISPR/Cas9 system was used to generate pigs with different mutations flanking exon 9 of PSEN1, including those with a deleted exon 9 (Δexon9). Vertebral malformations in PSEN1 mutant pigs were examined by X-ray, micro-CT and micro-MRI. Neuronal cells from the brains of PSEN1 mutant pigs were analyzed by immunoflourescence, followed by image analysis including morphometric evaluation via image J and 3D reconstruction. Results: Pigs with a PSEN1 null mutation (Δexon9-12) died shortly after birth and had significant axial skeletal defects, whereas pigs carrying at least one Δexon9 allele developed normally and remained healthy. Effects of the null mutation on abnormal skeletal development were also observed in fetuses at day 40 of gestation. Abnormal distribution of astrocytes and microglia in the brain was detected in two PSEN1 mutant pigs examined compared to age-matched control pigs. The founder pigs were bred to establish and age PSEN1 ΔE9/+ pigs to study their relevance to clinical Alzheimer’s diseases. Conclusions: PSEN1 has a critical role for normal vertebral development and PSEN1 mutant pigs serves as novel resources to study Alzheimer’s disease.

Background: Little is known about the associations of hearing loss, hippocampal volume, and motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR) in older adults. Objective: We aimed to investigate the associations of hearing loss with MCR and hippocampal volume; and the interaction of hearing loss with hippocampal volume on MCR. Methods: This population-based cross-sectional study included 2,540 dementia-free participants (age≥60 years; 56.5% women) in the baseline examination of the Multimodal Interventions to Delay Dementia and Disability in rural China. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews, clinical examination, and laboratory tests. Hearing function was assessed using pure tone audiometry test. In the subsample ( n = 661), hippocampal volume was assessed on structural magnetic resonance images. Data were analyzed with logistic regression models. Results: In the total sample, MCR was diagnosed in 246 persons (9.7%). High-frequency hearing loss was significantly associated with an increased likelihood of MCR and slow gait. In the subsample, the restricted cubic spline plots indicated an inverted U-shaped nonlinear relationship between high-frequency hearing performance and hippocampal volume. Moreover, greater hippocampal volume was significantly associated with a deduced likelihood of MCR and subjective cognitive decline (SCD). In addition, there were statistical interactions of high-frequency hearing loss with hippocampal volume on MCR and slow gait ( p for interaction < 0.05), such that the associations were statistically significant only among participants free of high-frequency hearing loss. Conclusions: High-frequency hearing loss was associated with an increased likelihood of MCR in older adults. The hippocampus might play a part in the relationship of high-frequency hearing loss and MCR.

Majority of farmers in Ketapang 1. Rantau Panjang District are accustomed to using inorganic chemical fertilizers and a few use organic fertilizers. Excessive use of chemical fertilizers will have a negative effect on soil fertility, physically, chemically and biologically. Infertile soil can cause the soil to become hard and cause plant roots to develop less well and disrupt nutrient absorption, so that the production of all plants will decrease, therefore to increase soil fertility you can use organic fertilizer enriched with Azospirillum bacteria (N-fixing bacteria from air) and phosphate and potassium solubilizing bacteria. This organic fertilizer enriched with bacteria more quickly contributes the NPK nutrients needed by plants. This activity was carried out in Ketapang 1 village, Rantau Panjang District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency, in the form of counseling and demonstration of the application of organic fertilizer enriched with bacteria. Knowledge about organic fertilizer enriched with bacteria is very beneficial to society to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers, to make the soil more loose and fertile and crop production can increase.

Two main currents of approaches to resolving intolerance trends: perspective and structural approaches. The first approach focuses on ideas, norms, and beliefs, while the second approach emphasizes policy change, institutionalization, and law enforcement. Based on the community service activity, this paper examines these two approaches that need to be integrated and combined so that intolerance resolution is more effective through “inclusive leadership strategies”. This strategy emphasizes changing the perspective of actors as well as strengthening the structure in the form of efforts to enact rules and policies and create supporting institutions. The Inclusive Leadership Training, which is the title of the community service as well as the core study of this paper, is aimed at building a new perspective on leadership and encouraging the improvement of rules and policies among youth groups. The results of this training show that changing the perspective of leadership and awareness of the need to build fair rules and policies has the opportunity to give birth to inclusive leadership candidates.

Abstrak Dua arus pendekatan utama dalam menyelesaikan tren intoleransi: pendekatan cara pandang dan struktur. Pendekatan pertama menitikberatkan pada ide, norma, dan keyakinan, sedang pendekatan kedua menekankan pada perubahan kebijakan, pelembagaan, dan penegakkan hukum. Berdasarkan kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat, tulisan ini menilai bahwa kedua pendekatan ini perlu diintegrasikan dan dikombinasikan sehingga penyelesaian intoleransi lebih efektif melalui “strategi kepemimpinan inklusif”. Strategi ini menekankan pada perubahan cara pandang aktor sekaligus penguatan struktur berupa usaha-usaha memperbaiki aturan dan kebijakan dan menciptakan lembagalembaga pendukung. Pelatihan Kepemimpinan Inklusif yang menjadi judul kegiatan pengabdian masyrakat dan juga menjadi judul studi dalam tulisan ini ditujukan untuk membangun cara pandang baru kepemimpinan dan dorongan perbaikan aturan dan kebijakan di kalangan anak muda. Hasil pelatihan ini memperlihatkan bahwa perubahan cara pandang kepemimpinan dan kesadaran tentang perlunya membangun aturan dan kebijakan yang adil berpeluang melahirkan calon pemimpin yang inklusif.
