Abstract
The oral maintenance of patients with periodontal disease mainly depends on clinical examination. However, insufficient number of medical workers cannot carry out detailed oral health education for a large number of patients within limited time and provide these patients with proper and effective oral health nursing methods. In this research, our study put forward a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) based method to diagnose chronic gingivitis, which is based on multichannel gray-levelco-occurrence matrix (MGLCM) and particle swarm optimization neural network(PSONN). Meanwhile, different training algorithms were used as comparison groups. The data set contains 800 images: 400 chronic gingivitis images and 400 healthy gingiva images. The results certify that the specificity, sensitivity, precision, accuracy and F1 Score of MGLCM (PSONN as a classifier) method is 78.17%, 78.23%, 78.24% ,78.20%and 78.17%, respectively. The association of MGLCM and PSONN is more accurate and efficient than approaches: NBC, WN+SVM,ELM and CLAHE+ELM.
