As an important part of metal processing, welding is widely used in industrial manufacturing activities, and its application scenarios are very extensive. Due to technical limitations, the welding process always unavoidably leaves weld defects. Weld defects are extremely hazardous, and the work used must be guaranteed to be defect-free, regardless of the field. However, manual weld inspection has subjective factors such as inefficiency and easy missed detection, and although some automatic weld inspection methods have appeared, these traditional methods still do not meet actual demand in terms of detection time and detection accuracy. Therefore, there is a need for a higher quality weld image automatic detection method to replace the manual method and the traditional automatic detection method. In view of the above, this paper proposes a weld seam image recognition algorithm based on deep learning. The Adam adaptive moment estimation algorithm is chosen as the backpropagation optimization algorithm to accelerate the training of convolutional neural networks and design an independent adaptive learning rate. Through the simulation of the collected 4500 tube images, the adaptive threshold-based method is used for weld seam extraction. The algorithm proposed in this paper is compared with the weld seam recognition method based on image texture feature value distribution (ITFVD) and the SUSAN-based weld defect target detection method. The results show that the proposed method can identify weld defects in a short time on different sizes of weld images, and can further detect the type of weld defects. In addition, the method in this paper is better than the other two methods in the false detection rate, recall rate and overall recognition accuracy, which shows that the experimental results have achieved the expected results.

Abstract Background - Nondisplaced femoral neck fractures are sometimes misdiagnosed by radiographs. We developed an automatic detection method using deep learning networks to pinpoint femoral neck fractures on radiographs to assist the physicians in making accurate diagnosis in the first place. Results - A total of approximately 3,840 images of non-displaced Garden type I and II femoral neck fracture cases collected from the Radiology Information System (RIS) from the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) database between 2018 and 2020 from the China Medical University Hospital (CMUH). Two senior orthopedic surgeons from the China Medical University Hospital participated in independently labeling the femoral neck margin and fracture line on these images as the training dataset for the deep learning network. Our proposed accurate automatic detection method, called direction-aware fracture detection network (DAFDNet), consists of two steps, namely region of interest (ROI) segmentation and fracture detection. The first step removes the noise region and pinpoints the femoral neck region. The fracture detection step uses direction-aware deep learning algorithm to mark the exact femoral neck fracture location in the region detected in the first step.Conclusions - Our proposed DAFDNet demonstrated over 94.8% accuracy in differentiating non-displaced Garden type I and type II femoral neck fracture cases. Our DAFDNet method outperforms the diagnostic accuracy of general practitioners and orthopedic surgeons in accurately locating Garden type I and type II fractures locations. This study can determine the feasibility of applying artificial intelligence in a clinical setting and how the use of deep learning networks assist physicians in improving the correct diagnosis compared to current traditional orthopedic manual assessments.

Automatic detection of arrhythmia is of great significance for early prevention and diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. Traditional feature engineering methods based on expert knowledge lack multidimensional and multi-view information abstraction and data representation ability, so the traditional research on pattern recognition of arrhythmia detection cannot achieve satisfactory results. Recently, with the increase of deep learning technology, automatic feature extraction of ECG data based on deep neural networks has been widely discussed. In order to utilize the complementary strength between different schemes, in this paper, we propose an arrhythmia detection method based on the multi-resolution representation (MRR) of ECG signals. This method utilizes four different up to date deep neural networks as four channel models for ECG vector representations learning. The deep learning based representations, together with hand-crafted features of ECG, forms the MRR, which is the input of the downstream classification strategy. The experimental results of big ECG dataset multi-label classification confirm that the F1 score of the proposed method is 0.9238, which is 1.31%, 0.62%, 1.18% and 0.6% higher than that of each channel model. From the perspective of architecture, this proposed method is highly scalable and can be employed as an example for arrhythmia recognition.
