Abstract
Malaria is a serious epidemic infectious disease caused by Plasmodium
falciparum. It is a fundamental human malaria parasite that can cause
serious illnesses, thus a delay in the precise treatment can lead to major
difficulties of severe malaria that includes coma or death. This research
develops deep capsule networks along with a modified routing strategy
that is fascinating due to their better performance for the classification
of blood images when compared with the other deep neural networks
and tested on malaria blood images. The experimental results of this
network show a better performance for classification of malaria parasite
and non-malaria from blood images to aid in improved diagnosis.
