AbstractReliance on deep learning techniques has become an important trend in several science domains including biological science, due to its proven efficiency in manipulating big data that are often characterized by their non-linear processes and complicated relationships. In this study, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) has been recruited, as one of the deep learning techniques, to be used in classifying and predicting the biological activities of the essential oil-producing plant/s through their chemical compositions. The model is established based on the available chemical composition’s information of a set of endemic Egyptian plants and their biological activities. Another type of machine learning algorithms, Multiclass Neural Network (MNN), has been applied on the same Essential Oils (EO) dataset. This aims to fairly evaluate the performance of the proposed CNN model. The recorded accuracy in the testing process for both CNN and MNN is 98.13% and 81.88%, respectively. Finally, the CNN technique has been adopted as a reliable model for classifying and predicting the bioactivities of the Egyptian EO-containing plants. The overall accuracy for the final prediction process is reported as approximately 97%. Hereby, the proposed deep learning model could be utilized as an efficient model in predicting the bioactivities of, at least Egyptian, EOs-producing plants.

AbstractUrban area mapping is an important application of remote sensing which aims at both estimation and change in land cover under the urban area. A major challenge being faced while analyzing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) based remote sensing data is that there is a lot of similarity between highly vegetated urban areas and oriented urban targets with that of actual vegetation. This similarity between some urban areas and vegetation leads to misclassification of the urban area into forest cover. The present work is a precursor study for the dual-frequency L and S-band NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission and aims at minimizing the misclassification of such highly vegetated and oriented urban targets into vegetation class with the help of deep learning. In this study, three machine learning algorithms Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) have been implemented along with a deep learning model DeepLabv3+ for semantic segmentation of Polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) data. It is a general perception that a large dataset is required for the successful implementation of any deep learning model but in the field of SAR based remote sensing, a major issue is the unavailability of a large benchmark labeled dataset for the implementation of deep learning algorithms from scratch. In current work, it has been shown that a pre-trained deep learning model DeepLabv3+ outperforms the machine learning algorithms for land use and land cover (LULC) classification task even with a small dataset using transfer learning. The highest pixel accuracy of 87.78% and overall pixel accuracy of 85.65% have been achieved with DeepLabv3+ and Random Forest performs best among the machine learning algorithms with overall pixel accuracy of 77.91% while SVM and KNN trail with an overall accuracy of 77.01% and 76.47% respectively. The highest precision of 0.9228 is recorded for the urban class for semantic segmentation task with DeepLabv3+ while machine learning algorithms SVM and RF gave comparable results with a precision of 0.8977 and 0.8958 respectively.

BACKGROUND The functional MRI (fMRI) is an essential tool for the presurgical planning of brain tumor removal, allowing the identification of functional brain networks in order to preserve the patient’s neurological functions. One fMRI technique used to identify the functional brain network is the resting-state-fMRI (rsfMRI). However, this technique is not routinely used because of the necessity to have a expert reviewer to identify manually each functional networks. OBJECTIVE We aimed to automatize the detection of brain functional networks in rsfMRI data using deep learning and machine learning algorithms METHODS We used the rsfMRI data of 82 healthy patients to test the diagnostic performance of our proposed end-to-end deep learning model to the reference functional networks identified manually by 2 expert reviewers. RESULTS Experiment results show the best performance of 86% correct recognition rate obtained from the proposed deep learning architecture which shows its superiority over other machine learning algorithms that were equally tested for this classification task. CONCLUSIONS The proposed end-to-end deep learning model was the most performant machine learning algorithm. The use of this model to automatize the functional networks detection in rsfMRI may allow to broaden the use of the rsfMRI, allowing the presurgical identification of these networks and thus help to preserve the patient’s neurological status.

The clinical symptoms of prediabetes are mild and easy to overlook, but prediabetes may develop into diabetes if early intervention is not performed. In this study, a deep learning model—referred to as IGRNet—is developed to effectively detect and diagnose prediabetes in a non-invasive, real-time manner using a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) lasting 5 s. After searching for an appropriate activation function, we compared two mainstream deep neural networks (AlexNet and GoogLeNet) and three traditional machine learning algorithms to verify the superiority of our method. The diagnostic accuracy of IGRNet is 0.781, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) is 0.777 after testing on the independent test set including mixed group. Furthermore, the accuracy and AUC are 0.856 and 0.825, respectively, in the normal-weight-range test set. The experimental results indicate that IGRNet diagnoses prediabetes with high accuracy using ECGs, outperforming existing other machine learning methods; this suggests its potential for application in clinical practice as a non-invasive, prediabetes diagnosis technology.

The weave pattern (texture) of woven fabric is considered to be an important factor of the design and production of high-quality fabric. Traditionally, the recognition of woven fabric has a lot of challenges due to its manual visual inspection. Moreover, the approaches based on early machine learning algorithms directly depend on handcrafted features, which are time-consuming and error-prone processes. Hence, an automated system is needed for classification of woven fabric to improve productivity. In this paper, we propose a deep learning model based on data augmentation and transfer learning approach for the classification and recognition of woven fabrics. The model uses the residual network (ResNet), where the fabric texture features are extracted and classified automatically in an end-to-end fashion. We evaluated the results of our model using evaluation metrics such as accuracy, balanced accuracy, and F1-score. The experimental results show that the proposed model is robust and achieves state-of-the-art accuracy even when the physical properties of the fabric are changed. We compared our results with other baseline approaches and a pretrained VGGNet deep learning model which showed that the proposed method achieved higher accuracy when rotational orientations in fabric and proper lighting effects were considered.

In recent years, the number of malware on the Android platform has been increasing, and with the widespread use of code obfuscation technology, the accuracy of antivirus software and traditional detection algorithms is low. Current state-of-the-art research shows that researchers started applying deep learning methods for malware detection. We proposed an Android malware detection algorithm based on a hybrid deep learning model which combines deep belief network (DBN) and gate recurrent unit (GRU). First of all, analyze the Android malware; in addition to extracting static features, dynamic behavioral features with strong antiobfuscation ability are also extracted. Then, build a hybrid deep learning model for Android malware detection. Because the static features are relatively independent, the DBN is used to process the static features. Because the dynamic features have temporal correlation, the GRU is used to process the dynamic feature sequence. Finally, the training results of DBN and GRU are input into the BP neural network, and the final classification results are output. Experimental results show that, compared with the traditional machine learning algorithms, the Android malware detection model based on hybrid deep learning algorithms has a higher detection accuracy, and it also has a better detection effect on obfuscated malware.

The increased credit card defaulters have forced the companies to think carefully before the approval of credit applications. Credit card companies usually use their judgment to determine whether a credit card should be issued to the customer satisfying certain criteria. Some machine learning algorithms have also been used to support the decision. The main objective of this paper is to build a deep learning model based on the UCI (University of California, Irvine) data sets, which can support the credit card approval decision. Secondly, the performance of the built model is compared with the other two traditional machine learning algorithms: logistic regression (LR) and support vector machine (SVM). Our results show that the overall performance of our deep learning model is slightly better than that of the other two models.

Diabetes, caused by the rise in level of glucose in blood, has many latest devices to identify from blood samples. Diabetes, when unnoticed, may bring many serious diseases like heart attack, kidney disease. In this way, there is a requirement for solid research and learning model’s enhancement in the field of gestational diabetes identification and analysis. SVM is one of the powerful classification models in machine learning, and similarly, Deep Neural Network is powerful under deep learning models. In this work, we applied Enhanced Support Vector Machine and Deep Learning model Deep Neural Network for diabetes prediction and screening. The proposed method uses Deep Neural Network obtaining its input from the output of Enhanced Support Vector Machine, thus having a combined efficacy. The dataset we considered includes 768 patients’ data with eight major features and a target column with result “Positive” or “Negative”. Experiment is done with Python and the outcome of our demonstration shows that the deep Learning model gives more efficiency for diabetes prediction.

Deep learning has gained much popularity in the past years due to GPU advancements, cloud computing improvements, and its supremacy, considering the accuracy results when trained on massive datasets. As with machine learning, deep learning models may experience low performance when handled with imbalanced datasets. In this paper, we focus on the trajectory classification problem, and we examine deep learning techniques for coping with imbalanced class data. We extend a deep learning model, called DeepeST (Deep Learning for Sub-Trajectory classification), to predict the class or label for sub-trajectories from imbalanced datasets. DeepeST is the first deep learning model for trajectory classification that provides approaches for coping with imbalanced dataset problems from the authors' knowledge. In this paper, we perform the experiments with three real datasets from LBSN (Location-Based Social Network) trajectories to identify who is the user of a sub-trajectory (similar to the Trajectory-User Linking problem). We show that DeepeST outperforms other deep learning approaches from state-of-the-art concerning the accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.

Through the continued development of technology, applying deep learning to remote sensing scene classification tasks is quite mature. The keys to effective deep learning model training are model architecture, training strategies, and image quality. From previous studies of the author using explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), image cases that have been incorrectly classified can be improved when the model has adequate capacity to correct the classification after manual image quality correction; however, the manual image quality correction process takes a significant amount of time. Therefore, this research integrates technologies such as noise reduction, sharpening, partial color area equalization, and color channel adjustment to evaluate a set of automated strategies for enhancing image quality. These methods can enhance details, light and shadow, color, and other image features, which are beneficial for extracting image features from the deep learning model to further improve the classification efficiency. In this study, we demonstrate that the proposed image quality enhancement strategy and deep learning techniques can effectively improve the scene classification performance of remote sensing images and outperform previous state-of-the-art approaches.

AbstractDeep learning models are tools for data analysis suitable for approximating (non-linear) relationships among variables for the best prediction of an outcome. While these models can be used to answer many important questions, their utility is still harshly criticized, being extremely challenging to identify which data descriptors are the most adequate to represent a given specific phenomenon of interest. With a recent experience in the development of a deep learning model designed to detect failures in mechanical water meter devices, we have learnt that a sensible deterioration of the prediction accuracy can occur if one tries to train a deep learning model by adding specific device descriptors, based on categorical data. This can happen because of an excessive increase in the dimensions of the data, with a correspondent loss of statistical significance. After several unsuccessful experiments conducted with alternative methodologies that either permit to reduce the data space dimensionality or employ more traditional machine learning algorithms, we changed the training strategy, reconsidering that categorical data, in the light of a Pareto analysis. In essence, we used those categorical descriptors, not as an input on which to train our deep learning model, but as a tool to give a new shape to the dataset, based on the Pareto rule. With this data adjustment, we trained a more performative deep learning model able to detect defective water meter devices with a prediction accuracy in the range 87–90%, even in the presence of categorical descriptors.
