the main goal of the study is to discover and diagnose knee osteoarthritis from X-ray scanned knee pictures. Examining knee joint health using X-ray pictures is a frequent and reasonably priced approach; the research aims to use those pix precisely for osteoarthritis detection. Accuracy and precision of current image processing-based technologies for knee osteoarthritis detection present difficulties. The research aims to overcome the limitations of current methods by means of a unique and tailored methodology for greater detection and type of knee osteoarthritis, therefore addressing their deficiencies. The suggested method develops a state-of- the-art object identification architecture, a customised CenterNet. This CenterNet is designed with a pixel-wise voting system, which lets one extract features at a very best stage. This approach of customising the CenterNet seeks to improve the accuracy and dependability of knee osteoarthritis diagnosis. DenseNet 201 is included into the model as the feature extracting base network. DenseNet's highly linked layers—which encourage feature reuse and help to reduce gradient-related problems. Using DenseNet 201, the version seeks to maximise the most representative features from knee samples, hence strengthening the feature extraction process's robustness. The main purpose of the proposed model is to identify correct knee staining arthritis in X-ray images. Furthermore, the model uses Kelglen and Lawrence (KL) incremental methods to determine the degree of osteoarthritis and thus overcome detection. This all-encompassing approach guarantees a sophisticated knowledge of the condition, so supporting more efficient diagnosis and treatment planning. The project suggests an integrated strategy comprising efficient object detection strategies (YOLOv5, YOLOv8), powerful type models (Xception, InceptionV3), and a user-pleasant front end created with the Flask framework. This method seeks to apply the blessings of advanced type and detection models together with offering an ideal and secure testing environment.
