  • A hybrid deep learning approach integrating CNN and transformer for lung cancer classification using CT scans
    Samia Nawaz Yousafzai, Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Sahar Mansour, Noha Negm, Asma A. Alhashmi, Mohannad A. Alharbi, Eunchan Kim
    Scientific Reports, 2026
    Lung cancer is an extremely fatal kind of cancer, resulting in the deaths of almost 7.6 million individuals annually around the globe. Nevertheless, a timely diagnosis is a crucial necessity for enhancing the likelihood of human survival. Regarding tumor identification, CT scans are normally used to identify affected areas. Nevertheless, CT imaging face significant problems such as poor visibility of tumor locations and high false negative rates. The small dataset size of medical imaging makes it challenging to capture local lesion features by iterative training, considering all input features equally. This work integrates Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Improved Swin Transformer (C-Swin), a deep learning model that extracts and integrates fine-grained local and global features. C-Swin has Transformer encoder and a CNN module. The CNN module extracts local features, whereas the Transformer module captures global features. The Transformer encoder uses a hybrid shifted window attention method to focus on a spatial region of the CT image, reducing background semantic information and improving local feature capture accuracy. The proposed method is validated using the publicly accessible Kaggle dataset namely IQ-OTH/NCCD with three classes. the proposed C-Swin model achieved average accuracy of 96.26%, precision of 97.48%, recall of 96.39% and F1-score of 97.42%. The numerical findings unequivocally demonstrate that our proposed method surpasses various existing methods with an increase in accuracy ranging from 2.31% to 6.81%. The C-Swin model is capable of extracting detailed local lesion features, resulting in improved classification performance.

  • Multimodal Deep Learning with Attention-Based Fusion for Skin Cancer Diagnosis
    Wiem Abdelbaki, Hend Alshaya, Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Sara Tehsin, Wided Bouchelligua
    Bioengineering, 2026
    The diagnosis of skin cancer remains a growing challenge because of its high variability as a result of the varying imaging conditions in clinical settings. This paper proposes a multimodal deep learning framework to address these challenges by combining the auxiliary clinical information with dermoscopic image features. This proposed architecture uses an attention-based feature encoder with a structured multimodal fusion approach to utilize the integrated feature representation across all channels. Evaluations of the proposed architecture were conducted across a range of benchmark datasets, including ISIC 2019, ISIC 2020, and HAM10000, using a unified experimental approach. This proposed model achieved accuracies of 90.5%, 88.7%, and 91.8% and AUCs of 95.8%, 94.6%, and 96.3%, respectively, on the selected datasets. For the baseline models, ResNet50 and EfficientNet-B4, our approach increased the AUC by 6.5% and the F1 score by 8.0%. Furthermore, across various datasets, the model achieved an AUC of 90.9%, proposing strong generalization. From the ablation analysis results, the attention and multimodal fusion mechanisms showed a 4.1% decrease in AUC when key components were removed, confirming their effectiveness. With 34.7 million parameters and an average of 19.3 Ms., the model has adequate intensity to deploy in a real clinical setting without affecting its performance. Additionally, the improvements to the model were statistically significant across all evaluation metrics (p = 0.01). The proposed multimodal framework demonstrates strong performance and robustness across multiple benchmark datasets.
  • Transformer-Based Deep Learning for Population-Scale Retinal Image Screening of Ophthalmic Disorders
    Wiem Abdelbaki, Wided Bouchelligua, Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Sara Tehsin, Hend Alshaya
    Bioengineering, 2026
    To perform screening of the retina on a population scale, an automated procedure is required that incorporates accurate, reproducible, interpretable, and computationally costeffective models. Existing approaches using convolutional or transformer architectures typically do not adequately represent both fine-grained pathology and large-scale retinal context simultaneously, which could adversely affect their reliability if used for large-scale applications in clinical practice. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical transformer-based screening framework for retinal fundus images that incorporates patch-based tokenization, global transformer encoding, and hierarchical aggregation of contextual information. We also developed a lightweight prediction head that supports screening for both single and multiple diseases. The framework has been evaluated using standard screening metrics, robustness, and cross-dataset generalization analyses on two eye retinopathy image databases: EyePACS and RFMiD. With regard to screening for a binary outcome of diabetic retinopathy, our method provided an accuracy of 89.4% and an area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve of 93.6% on EyePACS and attained an accuracy of 95.2% and a macro-averaged F1 score of 82.7% on RFMiD. Our hierarchical transformer achieved improved robustness to degraded images and increased generalizability across datasets compared with all current state-of-the-art models. The proposed hierarchical transformer demonstrates strong potential for large-scale retinal screening and provides a promising foundation for future clinically validated deployment.

  • Transformer-Based Foundation Learning for Robust and Data-Efficient Skin Disease Imaging
    Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Hend Alshaya, Sara Tehsin, Wided Bouchelligua
    Diagnostics, 2026
    Background/Objectives: Accurate and reliable automated dermoscopic lesion classification remains challenging. This is due to pronounced dataset bias, limited expert-annotated data, and poor cross-dataset generalization of conventional supervised deep learning models. In clinical dermatology, these limitations restrict the deployment of data-driven diagnostic systems across diverse acquisition settings and patient populations. Methods: Motivated by these challenges, this study proposes a transformer-based, dermatology-specific foundation model. The model learns transferable visual representations from large collections of unlabeled dermoscopic images via self-supervised pretraining. It integrates large-scale dermatology-oriented self-supervised learning with a hierarchical vision transformer backbone. This enables effective capture of both fine-grained lesion textures and global morphological patterns. The evaluation is conducted across three publicly available dermoscopic datasets: ISIC 2018, HAM10000, and PH2. The study assesses in-dataset, cross-dataset, limited-label, ablation, and computational-efficiency settings. Results: The proposed approach achieves in-dataset classification accuracies of 94.87%, 97.32%, and 98.17% on ISIC 2018, HAM10000, and PH2, respectively. It outperforms strong transformer and hybrid baselines. Cross-dataset transfer experiments show consistent performance gains of 3.5–5.8% over supervised counterparts. This indicates improved robustness to domain shift. Furthermore, when fine-tuned with only 10% of the labeled training data, the model achieves performance comparable to fully supervised baselines. Conclusions: This highlights strong data efficiency. These results demonstrate that dermatology-specific foundation learning offers a principled and practical solution for robust dermoscopic lesion classification under realistic clinical constraints.
  • CausaOne-sign: Causal explainable one-shot signature verification with lightweight cross-modality fusion
    Sara Tehsin, Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Ali Hassan, Farhan Riaz
    Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2026
    Background: Offline handwritten signature verification remains a difficult biometrics problem due to large intra-writer variability; skilled forgers; the limited number of reference samples available; and the black-box nature of many current deep learning based decision-making methodologies. Objective: To develop an interpretable, efficient one-shot learning framework that can perform offline signature verification for individuals who have never been seen before using as few reference signatures as possible. Materials and Methods: The proposed CausaOne-Sign model uses stroke aware graph encoding, transformer based reasoning, and prototypical embeddings, along with a causal attribution model to provide an explanation of how signature verification works. Experiments have been conducted using CEDAR, SigComp2011 UTSig, and BHSig260 datasets. Results: CausaOne-Sign achieved up to 97.4% accuracy and 99.1% area under the curve (AUC), with low ERR (1.8%), outperforming or matching state-of-the-art methods. Conclusion CausaOne-Sign offers a robust, interpretable, and resource-efficient solution for OSV, suitable for forensic and mobile applications.
  • Cross-view remote sensing and street-level data fusion for intelligent traffic congestion analysis

    Aims Mathematics, 2026
    The issue of urban traffic congestion is a persistent problem for the sustainable management of cities through transportation systems, as there is a need for models that integrate and analyze heterogeneous sources to yield accurate, interpretable outcomes. This paper introduces the cross-view fusion network (CVF-Net), a new multimodal deep learning framework for analyzing congestion across entire cities by combining remote-sensing imagery (drone aerial views), street-view camera images, and graph-structured sensor data into a single model. This model is introduced through a very novel architecture that includes a hierarchical attention fusion transformer (HAFT), which fuses cross-view attention (CVA) between the aerial and ground view, a temporal graph neural network (TGNN) that uses a spatio-temporal dynamic, and a graph refinement (GR) network for consistency relative to the graph topology. Extensive experiments across three benchmarks (CityFlowV2, METR-LA, PEMS-BAY) demonstrate that CVF-Net consistently outperforms other recent state-of-the-art methods, reducing forecasting error (MAE) by 9.3% and increasing tracking continuity (IDF1) by 7.0%. Ablation studies suggest that hierarchical fusion and temporal modeling improve accuracy and stability, while sensitivity analyses show that attention maps capture congestion and causal temporal patterns, which are real symptoms of congestion. The model also shows strong cross-dataset generalizability and robustness to sensor noise, which extends its performance in the real world. Unlike existing spatio-temporal GNNs and multimodal Transformers that rely on flat feature aggregation or implicitly assume cross-view alignment, the proposed framework introduces a hierarchical, alignment-aware fusion strategy that explicitly integrates aerial visual context with graph-temporal traffic dynamics.
  • Mamba-RSI: a state-space deep learning framework for efficient land-use and land-cover classification in remote sensing imagery
    Wiem Abdelbaki, , Wided Bouchelligua, Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Sara Tehsin, Hend Alshaya, , , and
    Aims Mathematics, 2026
    Accurate and efficient land-use and land-cover (LULC) classification from remote sensing imagery remains challenging. This is because it requires capturing long-range spatial dependencies while maintaining computational scalability. Recent transformer-based models improve global context modeling. However, they suffer from quadratic complexity and are limited in applicability to high-resolution imagery. We introduce Mamba-RSI: a linear-time, state-space deep learning framework using selective recursion, hierarchical multi-scale feature extraction, and lightweight global representations. Mamba-RSI captures both fine-grained spectral/texture information and coarse structural patterns with significantly less computational overhead than existing quadratic self-attention transformers. Extensive experimentation on EuroSAT and NWPU-RESISC45 demonstrated that Mamba-RSI achieves state-of-the-art performance. It achieved 99.72% accuracy on EuroSAT and 96.84% on RESISC45. This represents a +0.40% improvement over the strongest transformer baseline, ATMformer, on EuroSAT, a +0.29% improvement on RESISC45, and more than +0.53% over ViT-B on EuroSAT. Robustness tests under severe Gaussian noise ($ \sigma = 0.10 $) showed that Mamba-RSI maintains 97.43% accuracy. MaxViT, by comparison, maintains 94.01% in the same setting. Mamba-RSI also preserves 91.15% accuracy under 30% patch occlusion, outperforming ViT-B by +7.41%. Mamba-RSI provides an attractive blend of accuracy, robustness, and efficiency. It serves as a scalable foundation for new insights into remote sensing analytics and LULC mapping systems.
  • Domain-Adaptive MRI Learning Model for Precision Diagnosis of CNS Tumors
    Wiem Abdelbaki, Hend Alshaya, Inzamam Mashood Nasir, Sara Tehsin, Salwa Said, Wided Bouchelligua
    Biomedicines, 2026
    Background: Diagnosing CNS tumors through MRI is limited by significant variability in scanner hardware, acquisition protocols, and intensity characteristics at clinical centers, resulting in substantial domain shifts that lead to diminished reliability for automated models. Methods: We present a Domain-Adaptive MRI Learning Model (DA-MLM) consisting of an adversarially aligned hybrid 3D CNN–transformer encoder with contrastive regularization and covariance-based feature harmonization. Varying sequence MRI inputs (T1, T1ce, T2, and FLAIR) were inputted to multi-scale convolutional layers followed by global self-attention to effectively capture localized tumor structure and long-range spatial context, with domain adaptation that harmonizes feature distribution across datasets. Results: On the BraTS 2020 dataset, we found DA-MLM achieved 94.8% accuracy, 93.6% macro-F1, and 96.2% AUC, improving upon previously established benchmarks by 2–4%. DA-MLM also attained Dice score segmentation of 93.1% (WT), 91.4% (TC), and 89.5% (ET), improving upon 2–3.5% for CNN and transformer methods. On the REMBRANDT dataset, DA-MLM achieved 92.3% accuracy with segmentation improvements of 3–7% over existing U-Net and expert annotations. Robustness testing indicated 40–60% less degradation under noise, contrast shift, and motion artifacts, and synthetic shifts in scanner location showed negligible performance impairment (<0.06). Cross-domain evaluation also demonstrated 5–11% less degradation than existing methods. Conclusions: In summary, DA-MLM demonstrates improved accuracy, segmentation fidelity, and robustness to perturbations, as well as strong cross-domain generalization indicating the suitability for deployment in multicenter MRI applications where variation in imaging performance is unavoidable.
