Ultrasonic imaging is convenient and safe for cardiovascular disease diagnosis. Speckle tracking can obtain accurate myocardial movement data and provide important information for the diagnosis of cardiac function. Block matching method and optical flow method are the most commonly used speckle tracking methods. However, the accuracy of these methods cannot meet the needs of clinical application. Deep learning is applied to speckle tracking technology. Based on the correlation filters given to the deep convolution network, the migration learning method is introduced to obtain the feature mapping on the convolution layer on the pre-trained ImageNet VGG19 network. The feature mapping is used as the training data of correlation filters, and the tracking results obtained from convolution layers with different depths are filtered frame by frame, giving different weights to obtain the optimal tracking position within a certain search range. Then the correlation filter is updated to track the myocardial motion. The proposed deep learning based method has better accuracy for myocardial motion tracking, which indicates that the target tracking method based on convolutional neural network has potential advantages in this field.

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.

Image deconvolution has been an important issue recently. It has two kinds of approaches: non-blind and blind. Non-blind deconvolution is a classic problem of image deblurring, which assumes that the PSF is known and does not change universally in space. Recently, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been used for non-blind deconvolution. Though CNNs can deal with complex changes for unknown images, some CNN-based conventional methods can only handle small PSFs and does not consider the use of large PSFs in the real world. In this paper we propose a non-blind deconvolution framework based on a CNN that can remove large scale ringing in a deblurred image. Our method has three key points. The first is that our network architecture is able to preserve both large and small features in the image. The second is that the training dataset is created to preserve the details. The third is that we extend the images to minimize the effects of large ringing on the image borders. In our experiments, we used three kinds of large PSFs and were able to observe high-precision results from our method both quantitatively and qualitatively.
