The performance of neural networks is one of the most important topics in the field of computer vision. In this work, we analyze the speed of object detection using the well-known YOLOv3 neural network architecture in different frameworks under different hardware requirements. We obtain results, which allow us to formulate preliminary qualitative conclusions about the feasibility of various hardware scenarios to solve tasks in real-time environments.

В статье рассмотрены технологии компьютерного зрения на основе глубоких свёрточных нейронных сетей. Применение нейронных сетей особенно эффективно для решения трудно формализуемых задач. Разработана архитектура свёрточной нейронной сети применительно к задаче распознавания и классификации морских объектов на изображениях. В ходе исследования выполнен ретроспективный анализ технологий компьютерного зрения и выявлен ряд проблем, связанных с применением нейронных сетей: «исчезающий» градиент, переобучение и вычислительная сложность. При разработке архитектуры нейросети предложено использовать функцию активации RELU, обучение некоторых случайно выбранных нейронов и нормализацию с целью упрощения архитектуры нейросети. Сравнение используемых в нейросети функций активации ReLU, LeakyReLU, Exponential ReLU и SOFTMAX выполнено в среде Matlab R2020a. На основе свёрточной нейронной сети разработана программа на языке программирования Visual C# в среде MS Visual Studio для распознавания морских объектов. Программапредназначена для автоматизированной идентификации морских объектов, производит детектирование (нахождение объектов на изображении) и распознавание объектов с высокой вероятностью обнаружения. The article considers computer vision technologies based on deep convolutional neural networks. Application of neural networks is particularly effective for solving difficult formalized problems. As a result convolutional neural network architecture to the problem of recognition and classification of marine objects on images is implemented. In the research process a retrospective analysis of computer vision technologies was performed and a number of problems associated with the use of neural networks were identified: vanishing gradient, overfitting and computational complexity. To solve these problems in neural network architecture development, it was proposed to use RELU activation function, training some randomly selected neurons and normalization for simplification of neural network architecture.

The proliferation of info-entertainment systems in nowadays vehicles has provided a really cheap and easy-to-deploy platform with the ability to gather information about the vehicle under analysis. With the purpose to provide an architecture to increase safety and security in automotive context, in this paper we propose a fully connected neural network architecture considering position-based features aimed to detect in real-time: (i) the driver, (ii) the driving style and (iii) the path. The experimental analysis performed on real-world data shows that the proposed method obtains encouraging results.

The classification and description of the tasks solved using computer vision technologies are given. The use of neural networks to create systems for selecting objects in an image stream is considered in more detail. It also explains what is meant by training a neural network and discusses in detail the main stages of machine learning. The features of the application of convolutional neural networks for the segmentation of image objects, i.e., the selection of objects in the image, are indicated. The choice of the neural network architecture has been made, which has the property of extracting basic information from the image. The characteristics of the segmentation problem and the basic principles of computer vision are given. Conclusions are given on the possible application of the developed neural network model for solving various applied problems.

Artificial neural networks have become the go-to solution for computer vision tasks, including problems of the security domain. One such example comes in the form of reidentification, where deep learning can be part of the surveillance pipeline. The use case necessitates considering an adversarial setting—and neural networks have been shown to be vulnerable to a range of attacks. In this paper, the preprocessing defences against adversarial attacks are evaluated, including block-matching convolutional neural network for image denoising used as an adversarial defence. The benefit of using preprocessing defences comes from the fact that it does not require the effort of retraining the classifier, which, in computer vision problems, is a computationally heavy task. The defences are tested in a real-life-like scenario of using a pre-trained, widely available neural network architecture adapted to a specific task with the use of transfer learning. Multiple preprocessing pipelines are tested and the results are promising.

The problem of applying neural networks to calculate ratings used in banking in the decision-making process on granting or not granting loans to borrowers is considered. The task is to determine the rating function of the borrower based on a set of statistical data on the effectiveness of loans provided by the bank. When constructing a regression model to calculate the rating function, it is necessary to know its general form. If so, the task is to calculate the parameters that are included in the expression for the rating function. In contrast to this approach, in the case of using neural networks, there is no need to specify the general form for the rating function. Instead, certain neural network architecture is chosen and parameters are calculated for it on the basis of statistical data. Importantly, the same neural network architecture can be used to process different sets of statistical data. The disadvantages of using neural networks include the need to calculate a large number of parameters. There is also no universal algorithm that would determine the optimal neural network architecture. As an example of the use of neural networks to determine the borrower's rating, a model system is considered, in which the borrower's rating is determined by a known non-analytical rating function. A neural network with two inner layers, which contain, respectively, three and two neurons and have a sigmoid activation function, is used for modeling. It is shown that the use of the neural network allows restoring the borrower's rating function with quite acceptable accuracy.

There exists significant demand for improved Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) turbulence models that are informed by and can represent a richer set of turbulence physics. This paper presents a method of using deep neural networks to learn a model for the Reynolds stress anisotropy tensor from high-fidelity simulation data. A novel neural network architecture is proposed which uses a multiplicative layer with an invariant tensor basis to embed Galilean invariance into the predicted anisotropy tensor. It is demonstrated that this neural network architecture provides improved prediction accuracy compared with a generic neural network architecture that does not embed this invariance property. The Reynolds stress anisotropy predictions of this invariant neural network are propagated through to the velocity field for two test cases. For both test cases, significant improvement versus baseline RANS linear eddy viscosity and nonlinear eddy viscosity models is demonstrated.

This work proposes a neural network architecture that learns policies for multiple agent classes in a heterogeneous multi-agent reinforcement setting. The proposed network uses directed labeled graph representations for states, encodes feature vectors of different sizes for different entity classes, uses relational graph convolution layers to model different communication channels between entity types and learns distinct policies for different agent classes, sharing parameters wherever possible. Results have shown that specializing the communication channels between entity classes is a promising step to achieve higher performance in environments composed of heterogeneous entities.

Benefiting from the booming of deep learning, the state-of-the-art models achieved great progress. But they are huge in terms of parameters and floating point operations, which makes it hard to apply them to real-time applications. In this paper, we propose a novel deep neural network architecture, named MPDNet, for fast and efficient semantic segmentation under resource constraints. First, we use a light-weight classification model pretrained on ImageNet as the encoder. Second, we use a cost-effective upsampling datapath to restore prediction resolution and convert features for classification into features for segmentation. Finally, we propose to use a multi-path decoder to extract different types of features, which are not ideal to process inside only one convolutional neural network. The experimental results of our model outperform other models aiming at real-time semantic segmentation on Cityscapes. Based on our proposed MPDNet, we achieve 76.7% mean IoU on Cityscapes test set with only 118.84GFLOPs and achieves 37.6 Hz on 768 × 1536 images on a standard GPU.
