Deep Learning (DL) has attracted a lot of attention for its ability to reach state-of-the-art performance in many machine learning tasks. The core principle of DL methods consists of training composite architectures in an end-to-end fashion, where inputs are associated with outputs trained to optimize an objective function. Because of their compositional nature, DL architectures naturally exhibit several intermediate representations of the inputs, which belong to so-called latent spaces. When treated individually, these intermediate representations are most of the time unconstrained during the learning process, as it is unclear which properties should be favored. However, when processing a batch of inputs concurrently, the corresponding set of intermediate representations exhibit relations (what we call a geometry) on which desired properties can be sought. In this work, we show that it is possible to introduce constraints on these latent geometries to address various problems. In more detail, we propose to represent geometries by constructing similarity graphs from the intermediate representations obtained when processing a batch of inputs. By constraining these Latent Geometry Graphs (LGGs), we address the three following problems: (i) reproducing the behavior of a teacher architecture is achieved by mimicking its geometry, (ii) designing efficient embeddings for classification is achieved by targeting specific geometries, and (iii) robustness to deviations on inputs is achieved via enforcing smooth variation of geometry between consecutive latent spaces. Using standard vision benchmarks, we demonstrate the ability of the proposed geometry-based methods in solving the considered problems.

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images have been used in many studies for ship detection because they can be captured without being affected by time and weather. In recent years, the development of deep learning techniques has facilitated studies on ship detection in SAR images using deep learning techniques. However, because the noise from SAR images can negatively affect the learning of the deep learning model, it is necessary to reduce the noise through preprocessing. In this study, deep learning vessel detection was performed using preprocessed SAR images, and the effects of the preprocessing of the images on deep learning vessel detection were compared and analyzed. Through the preprocessing of SAR images, (1) intensity images, (2) decibel images, and (3) intensity difference and texture images were generated. The M2Det object detection model was used for the deep learning process and preprocessed SAR images. After the object detection model was trained, ship detection was performed using test images. The test results are presented in terms of precision, recall, and average precision (AP), which were 93.18%, 91.11%, and 89.78% for the intensity images, respectively, 94.16%, 94.16%, and 92.34% for the decibel images, respectively, and 97.40%, 94.94%, and 95.55% for the intensity difference and texture images, respectively. From the results, it can be found that the preprocessing of the SAR images can facilitate the deep learning process and improve the ship detection performance. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of deep learning-based ship detection techniques in SAR images in the future.

Flipped teaching is a trend within higher education. Through flipped teaching the learning environment can be altered by moving the lecture out of the classroom through online recordings, while in-classroom sessions focus on active learning and engaging students in their own learning process. In this paper, we used focus groups comprised of male students in a qualitative research course with the aim of understanding the ways in which we might improve active student engagement and motivation within the flipped classroom. The findings indicated that, within the flipped classroom, students mix surface and deep-learning approaches. The online recordings, which students interact with through a surface approach, can function as a stepping stone toward a deep-learning approach to in-class activities, but only if students come to class prepared. The findings therefore suggest that students must be made aware of the importance of preparation prior to flipped classroom in-class activities to ensure the active learning process is successful. By not listening to the recordings (e.g., due to technological failure, as was the case in this study), students can result in only employing a surface approach.

Groundnut is one of the most important and popular oilseed foods in the agricultural field, and its botanical name is Arachis hypogaea L. Approximately, the pod of mature groundnut contains 1–5 seeds with 57% of oil and 25% of protein content. Groundnut cultivation is affected by different kinds of diseases such as fungi, viruses, and bacteria. Hence, these diseases affect the leaf, root, and stem of the groundnut plant and it leads to heavy loss in yield. Moreover, the enlarger number of diseases affects the leaf and root-like Alternaria, Pestalotiopsis, Bud necrosis, tikka, Phyllosticta, Rust, Pepper spot, Choanephora, early and late leaf spot. To overcome these issues, we introduce an efficient method of convolutional neural network (CNN) because it automatically detects the important features without any human supervision. The proposed methodology can deeply detect plant disease by using a deep learning process. Ultimately, the groundnut disease classification with its overall performance of the proposed methodology provides 96% accuracy.

The study location of landslide is in Hokkaido, Japan which occurred due to the Iburi Earthquake 2018. In this study the landslide has been estimated by the fully Polarimetric SAR (Pol-SAR) technique based on ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 data using the Yamaguchi’s decomposition. The Yamaguchi's decomposition is proposed by Yoshio Yamaguchi et.al. The data has been analyzed using the deep learning process with SegNet architecture with color composite. In this research, the performance of SegNet is fast and efficient in memory usage. However, the result is not good, based on the Intersection over Union (IoU) evaluation obtained the lowest value is 0.0515 and the highest value is 0.1483. That is because of difficulty to make training datasets and of a small number of datasets. The greater difference between accuracy and loss graph along with higher epochs represents overfitting. The overfitting can be caused by the limited amount of training data and failure of the network to generalize the feature set over the training images.

The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a principal signal employed to automatically diagnose cardiovascular disease in shallow and deep learning models. However, ECG feature extraction is required and this may reduce diagnosis accuracy in traditional shallow learning models, while backward propagation (BP) algorithm used by the traditional deep learning models has the disadvantages of local minimization and slow convergence rate. To solve these problems, a new deep learning algorithm called deep kernel extreme learning machine (DKELM) is proposed by combining the extreme learning machine auto-encoder (ELM-AE) and kernel ELM (KELM). In the new DKELM architecture with [Formula: see text] hidden layers, ELM-AEs are employed by the front [Formula: see text] hidden layers for feature extraction in the unsupervised learning process, which can effectively extract abstract features from the original ECG signal. To overcome the “dimension disaster” problem, the kernel function is introduced into ELM to act as classifier by the [Formula: see text]th hidden layer in the supervised learning process. The experiments demonstrate that DKELM outperforms the BP neural network, support vector machine (SVM), extreme learning machine (ELM), deep auto-encoder (DAE), deep belief network (DBN) in classification accuracy. Though the accuracy of convolutional neural network (CNN) is almost the same as DKELM, the computing time of CNN is much longer than DKELM.
