Introduction:Saliency detection is a fundamental task of computer vision. Its ultimate aim is to localize the objects of interest that grab human visual attention with respect to the rest of the image. A great variety of saliency models based on different approaches was developed since 1990s. In recent years, the saliency detection has become one of actively studied topic in the theory of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Many original decisions using CNNs were proposed for salient object detection and, even, event detection.Purpose:A detailed survey of saliency detection methods in deep learning era allows to understand the current possibilities of CNN approach for visual analysis conducted by the human eyes’ tracking and digital image processing.Results:A survey reflects the recent advances in saliency detection using CNNs. Different models available in literature, such as static and dynamic 2D CNNs for salient object detection and 3D CNNs for salient event detection are discussed in the chronological order. It is worth noting that automatic salient event detection in durable videos became possible using the recently appeared 3D CNN combining with 2D CNN for salient audio detection. Also in this article, we have presented a short description of public image and video datasets with annotated salient objects or events, as well as the often used metrics for the results’ evaluation.Practical relevance:This survey is considered as a contribution in the study of rapidly developed deep learning methods with respect to the saliency detection in the images and videos.

Background: Backorders are an accepted abnormality affecting accumulation alternation and logistics, sales, chump service, and manufacturing, which generally leads to low sales and low chump satisfaction. A predictive archetypal can analyse which articles are best acceptable to acquaintance backorders giving the alignment advice and time to adjust, thereby demography accomplishes to aerate their profit. Objective: To address the issue of predicting backorders, this paper has proposed an un-supervised approach to backorder prediction using Deep Autoencoder. Method: In this paper, artificial intelligence paradigms are researched in order to introduce a predictive model for the present unbalanced data issues, where the number of products going on backorder is rare. Result: Un-supervised anomaly detection using deep auto encoders has shown better Area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic and precision-recall curves than supervised classification techniques employed with resampling techniques for imbalanced data problems. Conclusion: We demonstrated that Un-supervised anomaly detection methods specifically deep auto-encoders can be used to learn a good representation of the data. The method can be used as predictive model for inventory management and help to reduce bullwhip effect, raise customer satisfaction as well as improve operational management in the organization. This technology is expected to create the sentient supply chain of the future – able to feel, perceive and react to situations at an extraordinarily granular level

Human operators often diagnose industrial machinery via anomalous sounds. Given the new advances in the field of machine learning, automated acoustic anomaly detection can lead to reliable maintenance of machinery. However, deep learning-driven anomaly detection methods often require an extensive amount of computational resources prohibiting their deployment in factories. Here we explore a machine-driven design exploration strategy to create OutlierNets, a family of highly compact deep convolutional autoencoder network architectures featuring as few as 686 parameters, model sizes as small as 2.7 KB, and as low as 2.8 million FLOPs, with a detection accuracy matching or exceeding published architectures with as many as 4 million parameters. The architectures are deployed on an Intel Core i5 as well as a ARM Cortex A72 to assess performance on hardware that is likely to be used in industry. Experimental results on the model’s latency show that the OutlierNet architectures can achieve as much as 30x lower latency than published networks.

There is a growing interest in safety warning of underground mining due to the huge threat being faced by those working in underground mining. Data acquisition of sensors based on Internet of Things (IoT) is currently the main method, but the data anomaly detection and analysis of multi-sensors is a challenging task: firstly, the data that are collected by different sensors of underground mining are heterogeneous; secondly, real-time is required for the data anomaly detection of safety warning. Currently, there are many anomaly detection methods, such as traditional clustering methods K-means and C-means. Meanwhile, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is widely used in data analysis and prediction. However, K-means and C-means cannot directly process heterogeneous data, and AI algorithms require equipment with high computing and storage capabilities. IoT equipment of underground mining cannot perform complex calculation due to the limitation of energy consumption. Therefore, many existing methods cannot be directly used for IoT applications in underground mining. In this paper, a multi-sensors data anomaly detection method based on edge computing is proposed. Firstly, an edge computing model is designed, and according to the computing capabilities of different types of devices, anomaly detection tasks are migrated to different edge devices, which solve the problem of insufficient computing capabilities of the devices. Secondly, according to the requirements of different anomaly detection tasks, edge anomaly detection algorithms for sensor nodes and sink nodes are designed respectively. Lastly, an experimental platform is built for performance comparison analysis, and the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance in anomaly detection accuracy, delay, and energy consumption.

Owing to recent advancements in deep learning methods and relevant databases, it is becoming increasingly easier to recognize 3D objects using only RGB images from single viewpoints. This study investigates the major breakthroughs and current progress in deep learning-based monocular 3D object detection. For relatively low-cost data acquisition systems without depth sensors or cameras at multiple viewpoints, we first consider existing databases with 2D RGB photos and their relevant attributes. Based on this simple sensor modality for practical applications, deep learning-based monocular 3D object detection methods that overcome significant research challenges are categorized and summarized. We present the key concepts and detailed descriptions of representative single-stage and multiple-stage detection solutions. In addition, we discuss the effectiveness of the detection models on their baseline benchmarks. Finally, we explore several directions for future research on monocular 3D object detection.

Anomaly detection techniques can extract a wealth of information about unusual events. Unfortunately, these methods yield an abundance of findings that are not of interest, obscuring relevant anomalies. In this work, we improve upon traditional anomaly detection methods by introducing Isudra, an Indirectly Supervised Detector of Relevant Anomalies from time series data. Isudra employs Bayesian optimization to select time scales, features, base detector algorithms, and algorithm hyperparameters that increase true positive and decrease false positive detection. This optimization is driven by a small amount of example anomalies, driving an indirectly supervised approach to anomaly detection. Additionally, we enhance the approach by introducing a warm-start method that reduces optimization time between similar problems. We validate the feasibility of Isudra to detect clinically relevant behavior anomalies from over 2M sensor readings collected in five smart homes, reflecting 26 health events. Results indicate that indirectly supervised anomaly detection outperforms both supervised and unsupervised algorithms at detecting instances of health-related anomalies such as falls, nocturia, depression, and weakness.

Augmented reality is one of the fastest growing fields, receiving increased funding for the last few years as people realise the potential benefits of rendering virtual information in the real world. Most of today’s augmented reality marker-based applications use local feature detection and tracking techniques. The disadvantage of applying these techniques is that the markers must be modified to match the unique classified algorithms or they suffer from low detection accuracy. Machine learning is an ideal solution to overcome the current drawbacks of image processing in augmented reality applications. However, traditional data annotation requires extensive time and labour, as it is usually done manually. This study incorporates machine learning to detect and track augmented reality marker targets in an application using deep neural networks. We firstly implement the auto-generated dataset tool, which is used for the machine learning dataset preparation. The final iOS prototype application incorporates object detection, object tracking and augmented reality. The machine learning model is trained to recognise the differences between targets using one of YOLO’s most well-known object detection methods. The final product makes use of a valuable toolkit for developing augmented reality applications called ARKit.

An essential element for intelligent perception in mechatronic and robotic systems (M&RS) is the visual object detection algorithm. With the ever-increasing advance of artificial neural networks (ANN), researchers have proposed numerous ANN-based visual object detection methods that have proven to be effective. However, networks with cumbersome structures do not befit the real-time scenarios in M&RS, necessitating the techniques of model compression. In the paper, a novel approach to training light-weight visual object detection networks is developed by revisiting knowledge distillation. Traditional knowledge distillation methods are oriented towards image classification is not compatible with object detection. Therefore, a variant of knowledge distillation is developed and adapted to a state-of-the-art keypoint-based visual detection method. Two strategies named as positive sample retaining and early distribution softening are employed to yield a natural adaption. The mutual consistency between teacher model and student model is further promoted through a hint-based distillation. By extensive controlled experiments, the proposed method is testified to be effective in enhancing the light-weight network’s performance by a large margin.
