Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a serious hazard that can result inirreversible blindness if not addressed in a timely manner. Hence, numeroustechniques have been proposed for the accurate and timely detection ofthis disease. Out of these, Deep Learning (DL) and computer Vision (CV)methods for multiclass categorization of color fundus images diagnosed withDiabetic Retinopathy have sparked considerable attention. In this paper,we attempt to develop an extended ResNet152V2 architecture-based DeepLearning model, named ResNet2.0 to aid the timely detection of DR. TheAPTOS-2019 datasetwas used to train the model. This consists of 3662 fundusimages belonging to five different stages of DR: no DR (Class 0), mild DR(Class 1), moderate DR (Class 2), severe DR (Class 3), and proliferativeDR (Class 4). The model was gauged based on ability to detect stage-wiseDR. The images were pre-processed using negative and positive weightedGaussian-based masks as feature engineering to further enhance the qualityof the fundus images by removing the noise and normalizing the images. Upsamplingand data augmentation methods were used to address the skewnessof the original dataset. The proposed model achieved an overall accuracyof 91% and an area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC)score of 95.1%, outperforming existing Deep Learning models by around 10%.Furthermore, the class-wise F1 score for No DR was 92%, Mild DR was 82%,Moderate DR was 66%, Severe was DR 89% and Proliferative DR was 80%.

Vehicle platooning has attracted growing attention for its potential to enhance traffic capacity and road safety. This paper proposes an innovative distributed Stochastic Model Predictive Control (SMPC) for a vehicle platoon system to enhance the robustness and safety of the vehicles in uncertain traffic environments. In particular, considering the similarity between the acceleration or deceleration behaviour of neighbouring vehicles and the spring-scale properties, we use a two-mass spring system for the first time to construct an uncertain dynamic model of a formation system. In the presence of uncertain perturbations with known distributional attributes (expectation, variance), we propose an objective function in the form of expectation along with probabilistic chance constraints. Subsequently, a state feedback control mechanism is devised accordingly. Under the cumulative probability distribution function of stochastic perturbations, we theoretically derive a computationally tractable equivalent of the SMPC model. Finally, simulation experiments are designed to validate the control performance of the SMPC platoon controllers, along with an analysis of the stability performance under varying probabilities. The experimental findings demonstrate that the model can be efficiently solved in real-time with appropriately chosen prediction horizon lengths, ensuring robust and safe longitudinal vehicle formation control.
