In recent days, study on retinal image remains a significant area for analysis. Several retinal diseases are identified by examining the differences occurring in the retina. Anyhow, the major shortcoming between these analyses was that the identification accuracy is not satisfactory. The adopted framework includes two phases namely; (i) feature extraction and (ii) classification. Initially, the input fundus image is subjected to the feature extraction process, where the features like Local Binary Pattern (LBP), Local Vector Pattern (LVP) and Local Tetra Patterns (LTrP) are extracted. These extracted features are subjected to the classification process, where the Deep Belief Network (DBN) is used as the classifier. In addition, to improve the accuracy, the activation function and hidden neurons of DBN are optimally tuned by means of the Self Improved Grey Wolf Optimization (SI-GWO). Finally, the performance of implemented work is compared and proved over the conventional models.

In this research paper, an incremental clustering approach-enabled MapReduce framework is implemented that include two phases, mapper and reducer phase. In the mapper phase, there are two processes, pre-processing and feature extraction. Once the input data is pre-processed, the feature extraction is done using wordnet features. Then, the features are fed to the reducer phase, where the features are selected using entropy function. Then, the automatic incremental clustering is done using bat-grey wolf optimizer (BAGWO). BAGWO is the integration of bat algorithm (BA) into grey wolf optimization (GWO) for generating various clusters of text documents. Upon the arrival of the incremental data, the mapping of the new data with respect to the centroids is done to obtain the effective cluster. For mapping, kernel-based deep point distance and for centroid update, fuzzy concept is used. The performance of the proposed framework outperformed the existing techniques using rand coefficient, Jaccard coefficient, and clustering accuracy with maximal values 0.921, 0.920, and 0.95, respectively.

With more and more malicious traffic using TLS protocol encryption, efficient identification of TLS malicious traffic has become an increasingly important task in network security management in order to ensure communication security and privacy. Most of the traditional traffic identification methods on TLS malicious encryption only adopt the common characteristics of ordinary traffic, which results in the increase of coupling among features and then the low identification accuracy. In addition, most of the previous work related to malicious traffic identification extracted features directly from the data flow without recording the extraction process, making it difficult for subsequent traceability. Therefore, this paper implements an efficient feature extraction method with structural correlation for TLS malicious encrypted traffic. The traffic feature extraction process is logged in modules, and the index is used to establish relevant information links, so as to analyse the context and facilitate subsequent feature analysis and problem traceability. Finally, Random Forest is used to realize efficient TLS malicious traffic identification with an accuracy of up to 99.38%.

Number of malware detection models has been proposed recently, which still poses major limitations in terms of detection rate. Hence, to overcome this, this paper introduces a new malware detection model with three stages: Feature Extraction, Feature selection and Classification. In feature extraction phase, the Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) and Information gain (IG) features are extracted. More importantly, the IG feature is subjected with the Holoentropy evaluation. Following the feature extraction phase feature selection is performed using Principle Component Analysis (PCA). Finally, to do the classification process, Deep Belief Network (DBN) is used with optimized activation function. To work out this optimization scenario, this paper intends to propose a new hybrid algorithm that combines the concept of Lion Algorithm (LA) and Glowworm Swarm Algorithm (GSO). The performance of proposed Lion Updated GSO (LU-GSO) is compared over other conventional models with respect to various evaluation measures and proves the betterments over others. Through the performance analysis, it was observed that the proposed model attains high accuracy, which is 10.21%, 10.04%, 9.18% and 6.42% better than LA, GSO, GWO and PSO, respectively.

Abstract Background Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) has increased in awareness considerably over the last two decades and is acknowledged as a serious problem in epilepsy. However, the scientific community remains unclear on the reason or possible bio markers that can discern potentially fatal seizures from other non-fatal seizures. The duration of postictal generalized EEG suppression (PGES) is a promising candidate to aid in identifying SUDEP risk. The length of time a patient experiences PGES after a seizure may be used to infer the risk a patient may have of SUDEP later in life. However, the problem becomes identifying the duration, or marking the end, of PGES (Tomson et al. in Lancet Neurol 7(11):1021–1031, 2008; Nashef in Epilepsia 38:6–8, 1997). Methods This work addresses the problem of marking the end to PGES in EEG data, extracted from patients during a clinically supervised seizure. This work proposes a sensitivity analysis on EEG window size/delay, feature extraction and classifiers along with associated hyperparameters. The resulting sensitivity analysis includes the Gradient Boosted Decision Trees and Random Forest classifiers trained on 10 extracted features rooted in fundamental EEG behavior using an EEG specific feature extraction process (pyEEG) and 5 different window sizes or delays (Bao et al. in Comput Intell Neurosci 2011:1687–5265, 2011). Results The machine learning architecture described above scored a maximum AUC score of 76.02% with the Random Forest classifier trained on all extracted features. The highest performing features included SVD Entropy, Petrosan Fractal Dimension and Power Spectral Intensity. Conclusion The methods described are effective in automatically marking the end to PGES. Future work should include integration of these methods into the clinical setting and using the results to be able to predict a patient’s SUDEP risk.

Recently, deep learning (DL) has been successfully applied in automatic target recognition (ATR) tasks of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. However, limited by the lack of SAR image target datasets and the high cost of labeling, these existing DL based approaches can only accurately recognize the target in the training dataset. Therefore, high precision identification of unknown SAR targets in practical applications is one of the important capabilities that the SAR–ATR system should equip. To this end, we propose a novel DL based identification method for unknown SAR targets with joint discrimination. First of all, the feature extraction network (FEN) trained on a limited dataset is used to extract the SAR target features, and then the unknown targets are roughly identified from the known targets by computing the Kullback–Leibler divergence (KLD) of the target feature vectors. For the targets that cannot be distinguished by KLD, their feature vectors perform t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) dimensionality reduction processing to calculate the relative position angle (RPA). Finally, the known and unknown targets are finely identified based on RPA. Experimental results conducted on the MSTAR dataset demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve higher identification accuracy of unknown SAR targets than existing methods while maintaining high recognition accuracy of known targets.

“Image Captioning is the process of generating a textual description of an image”. It deploys both computer vision and natural language processing for caption generation. However, the majority of the image captioning systems offer unclear depictions regarding the objects like “man”, “woman”, “group of people”, “building”, etc. Hence, this paper intends to develop an intelligent-based image captioning model. The adopted model comprises of few steps like word generation, sentence formation, and caption generation. Initially, the input image is subjected to the Deep learning classifier called Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Since the classifier is already trained in the relevant words that are related to all images, it can easily classify the associated words of the given image. Further, a set of sentences is formed with the generated words using Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) model. The likelihood of the formed sentences is computed using the Maximum Likelihood (ML) function, and the sentences with higher probability are taken, which is further used for generating the visual representation of the scene in terms of image caption. As a major novelty, this paper aims to enhance the performance of CNN by optimally tuning its weight and activation function. This paper introduces a new enhanced optimization algorithm Rider with Randomized Bypass and Over-taker update (RR-BOU) for this optimal selection. In the proposed RR-BOU is the enhanced version of the Rider Optimization Algorithm (ROA). Finally, the performance of the proposed captioning model is compared over other conventional models with respect to statistical analysis.

<p><span lang="EN-GB">In this paper, different feature extraction and feature normalization methods are investigated for speaker recognition. With a view to give a good representation of acoustic speech signals, Power Normalized Cepstral Coefficients (PNCCs) and Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) are employed for feature extraction. Then, to mitigate the effect of linear channel, Cepstral Mean-Variance Normalization (CMVN) and feature warping are utilized. The current paper investigates Text-independent speaker identification system by using 16 coefficients from both the MFCCs and PNCCs features. Eight different speakers are selected from the GRID-Audiovisual database with two females and six males. The speakers are modeled using the coupling between the Universal Background Model and Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM-UBM) in order to get a fast scoring technique and better performance. The system shows 100% in terms of speaker identification accuracy. The results illustrated that PNCCs features have better performance compared to the MFCCs features to identify females compared to male speakers. Furthermore, feature wrapping reported better performance compared to the CMVN method. </span></p>

Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is extensively used technique for image retrieval from large image databases. However, users are not satisfied with the conventional image retrieval techniques. In addition, the advent of web development and transmission networks, the number of images available to users continues to increase. Therefore, a permanent and considerable digital image production in many areas takes place. Quick access to the similar images of a given query image from this extensive collection of images pose great challenges and require proficient techniques. From query by image to retrieval of relevant images, CBIR has key phases such as feature extraction, similarity measurement, and retrieval of relevant images. However, extracting the features of the images is one of the important steps. Recently Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) shows good results in the field of computer vision due to the ability of feature extraction from the images. Alex Net is a classical Deep CNN for image feature extraction. We have modified the Alex Net Architecture with a few changes and proposed a novel framework to improve its ability for feature extraction and for similarity measurement. The proposal approach optimizes Alex Net in the aspect of pooling layer. In particular, average pooling is replaced by max-avg pooling and the non-linear activation function Maxout is used after every Convolution layer for better feature extraction. This paper introduces CNN for features extraction from images in CBIR system and also presents Euclidean distance along with the Comprehensive Values for better results. The proposed framework goes beyond image retrieval, including the large-scale database. The performance of the proposed work is evaluated using precision. The proposed work show better results than existing works.
