Deep learning-driven diagnosis: A multi-task approach for segmenting stroke and Bell's palsy.

• The study uses cutting-edge deep learning algorithms for recognizing facial asymmetry, a key stroke symptom. • Our method significantly improves existing stroke detection techniques by providing automated, real-time assessment of potential stroke victims. • The research incorporates the latest findings in the field of pattern recognition, ensuring that our system is current and relevant. • We present a unique system that does not require any specialized equipment for detection, potentially improving the accessibility of stroke detection. • The paper demonstrates how this automated detection system could be a crucial first step in stroke segmentation, thus contributing to the early intervention and treatment of stroke. Strong efforts have been undertaken to enhance the diagnosis and identification of diseases that cause facial paralysis, such as Bell's palsy and stroke, because of their detrimental social effects. Stroke is one of the most serious and potentially fatal conditions among the major cardiovascular disorders. We are introducing a deep-learning-based method for early diagnosis of facial paralysis diseases such as stroke and Bell's palsy. Recognizing the costs associated with traditional diagnostic techniques like magnetic resonance tomography (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scan images, our model employs a multi-task network, integrating face parsing, facial asymmetry parsing, and category enhancement. Spatial inconsistencies are addressed via a depth-map estimation module that leverages an instance-specific kernel approach. To clarify the boundaries of facial components, we use category edge detection with a foreground attention module, generating generic geometric structures and detailed semantic cues. Our model is trained on two datasets, comprising individuals with regular smiles and those with one-sided facial weakness. This cost-effective, easily accessible solution can streamline the diagnostic process, minimizing data gaps, and reducing needless rescreening and intervention costs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
