In computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems, the automatic classification of the different types of the human epithelial type 2 (HEp-2) cells represents one of the critical steps in the diagnosis procedure of autoimmune diseases. Most of the methods prefer to tackle this task using the supervised learning paradigm. However, the necessity of having thousands of manually annotated examples constitutes a serious concern for the state-of-the-art HEp-2 cells classification methods. We present in this work a method that uses active learning in order to minimize the necessity of annotating the majority of the examples in the dataset. For this purpose, we use cross-modal transfer learning coupled with parallel deep residual networks. First, the parallel networks, which take simultaneously different wavelet coefficients as inputs, are trained in a fully supervised way by using a very small and already annotated dataset. Then, the trained networks are utilized on the targeted dataset, which is quite larger compared to the first one, using active learning techniques in order to only select the images that really need to be annotated among all the examples. The obtained results show that active learning, when mixed with an efficient transfer learning technique, can allow one to achieve a quite pleasant discrimination performance with only a few annotated examples in hands. This will help in building CAD systems by simplifying the burdensome task of labeling images while maintaining a similar performance with the state-of-the-art methods.

Text classification has grown into more significant in managing and organizing the text data due to tremendous growth of online information. It does classification of documents in to fixed number of predefined categories. Rule based approach and Machine learning approach are the two ways of text classification. In rule based approach, classification of documents is done based on manually defined rules. In Machine learning based approach, classification rules or classifier are defined automatically using example documents. It has higher recall and quick process. This paper shows an investigation on text classification utilizing different machine learning techniques.

Natural disasters not only disturb the human ecological system but also destroy the properties and critical infrastructures of human societies and even lead to permanent change in the ecosystem. Disaster can be caused by naturally occurring events such as earthquakes, cyclones, floods, and wildfires. Many deep learning techniques have been applied by various researchers to detect and classify natural disasters to overcome losses in ecosystems, but detection of natural disasters still faces issues due to the complex and imbalanced structures of images. To tackle this problem, we propose a multilayered deep convolutional neural network. The proposed model works in two blocks: Block-I convolutional neural network (B-I CNN), for detection and occurrence of disasters, and Block-II convolutional neural network (B-II CNN), for classification of natural disaster intensity types with different filters and parameters. The model is tested on 4428 natural images and performance is calculated and expressed as different statistical values: sensitivity (SE), 97.54%; specificity (SP), 98.22%; accuracy rate (AR), 99.92%; precision (PRE), 97.79%; and F1-score (F1), 97.97%. The overall accuracy for the whole model is 99.92%, which is competitive and comparable with state-of-the-art algorithms.
