Prior to the availability of digital cameras, the solar observational images are typically recorded on films, and the information such as date and time were stamped in the same frames on film. It is significant to extract the time stamp information on the film so that the researchers can efficiently use the image data. This paper introduces an intelligent method for extracting time stamp information, namely, the convolutional neural network (CNN), which is an algorithm in deep learning of multilayer neural network structures and can identify time stamp character in the scanned solar images. We carry out the time stamp decoding for the digitized data from the National Solar Observatory from 1963 to 2003. The experimental results show that the method is accurate and quick for this application. We finish the time stamp information extraction for more than 7 million images with the accuracy of 98%.

In order to realize the non-destructive intelligent identification of weld surface defects, an intelligent recognition method based on deep learning is proposed, which is mainly formed by convolutional neural network (CNN) and forest random. First, the high-level features are automatically learned through the CNN. Random forest is trained with extracted high-level features to predict the classification results. Secondly, the weld surface defects images are collected and preprocessed by image enhancement and threshold segmentation. A database of weld surface defects is established using pre-processed images. Finally, comparative experiments are performed on the weld surface defects database. The results show that the accuracy of the method combined with CNN and random forest can reach 0.9875, and it also demonstrates the method is effective and practical.

<div><div><div><p>Many algorithms and methods have been proposed for Computed Tomography (CT) image reconstruction, partic- ularly with the recent surge of interest in machine learning and deep learning methods. The majority of recently proposed methods are, however, limited to the image domain processing where deep learning is used to learn the mapping from a noisy image data set to a true image data set. While deep learning-based methods can produce higher quality images than conventional model-based post-processing algorithms, these methods have lim- itations. Deep learning-based methods used in the image domain are not sufficient for compensating for lost information during a forward and a backward projection in CT image reconstruction especially with a presence of high noise. In this paper, we propose a new Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) architecture for CT image reconstruction. We propose the Gated Momentum Unit (GMU) that has been extended from the Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) but it is specifically designed for image processing inverse problems. This new RNN cell performs an iterative optimization with an accelerated convergence. The GMU has a few gates to regulate information flow where the gates decide to keep important long-term information and discard insignificant short- term detail. Besides, the GMU has a likelihood term and a prior term analogous to the Iterative Reconstruction (IR). This helps ensure estimated images are consistent with observation data while the prior term makes sure the likelihood term does not overfit each individual observation data. We conducted a synthetic image study along with a real CT image study to demonstrate this proposed method achieved the highest level of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structure Similarity (SSIM). Also, we showed this algorithm converged faster than other well-known methods.</p></div></div></div>

The development of technology is growing rapidly; one of the most popular among the scientist is robotics technology. Recently, the robot was created to resemble the function of the human brain. Robots can make decisions without being helped by humans, known as AI (Artificial Intelligent). Now, this technology is being developed so that it can be used in wheeled vehicles, where these vehicles can run without any obstacles. Furthermore, of research, Nvidia introduced an autonomous vehicle named Nvidia Dave-2, which became popular. It showed an accuracy rate of 90%. The CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) method is used in the track recognition process with input in the form of a trajectory that has been taken from several angles. The data is trained using Jupiter's notebook, and then the training results can be used to automate the movement of the robot on the track where the data has been retrieved. The results obtained are then used by the robot to determine the path it will take. Many images that are taken as data, precise the results will be, but the time to train the image data will also be longer. From the data that has been obtained, the highest train loss on the first epoch is 1.829455, and the highest test loss on the third epoch is 30.90127. This indicates better steering control, which means better stability.

Batik is one of the Indonesian cultural heritages that has been recognized by the global community. Indonesian batik has a vast diversity in motifs that illustrate the philosophy of life, the ancestral heritage and also reflects the origin of batik itself. Because of the manybatik motifs, problems arise in determining the type of batik itself. Therefore, we need a classification method that can classify various batik motifs automatically based on the batik images. The technique of image classification that is used widely now is deep learning method. This technique has been proven of its capacity in identifying images in high accuracy. Architecture that is widely used for the image data analysis is Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) because this architecture is able to detect and recognize objects in an image. This workproposes to use the method of CNN and VGG architecture that have been modified to overcome the problems of classification of the batik motifs. Experiments of using 2.448 batik images from 5 classes of batik motifs showed that the proposed model has successfully achieved an accuracy of 96.30%.

This study aimed to explore the application value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images based on deep learning algorithms in the diagnosis of tibial plateau fractures combined with meniscus injuries. The original MRI image was input into the deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN), and the knee joint undersampled and fully sampled MRI image data were used for training to obtain a neural network model that can effectively remove the noise and blur of the undersampled image. Then, the image was reconstructed by the Regridding model to obtain an image with less noise and clearer structure. At the same time, all subjects underwent knee MRI examinations, and algorithms were used to analyze the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of their images. It was found that of 160 menisci from 80 cases of tibial plateau fractures, 64 were normal meniscus and 88 were injured menisci. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of optimized MRI in diagnosing fracture of tibial plateau combined with meniscus injury were 96.9%, 93.2%, and 95.3%, respectively. In conclusion, the restored MRI images have high sensitivity in the diagnosis of meniscus injury and high consistency with the intraoperative results. It suggests that the optimized MRI image is effective in the diagnosis of meniscus injury.

Background: Finding region of interest in an image and content-based image analysis has been a challenging task for last two decades. With the advancement in image processing, computer vision field and huge amount of image data generation, to manage this huge amount of data Content-Based Image Retrieval System (CBIR) has attracted several researchers as a common technique to manage this huge amount of data. It is an approach of searching user interest, based on visual information present in an image. The requirement of high computation power and huge memory limits deployment of CBIR technique in real-time scenarios. Objective: In this paper an advanced deep learning model is applied for CBIR on facial image data. We design a deep convolution neural network architecture where activation of convolution layer is used for feature representation and include max pooling as feature reduction technique. Furthermore, our model uses partial feature mapping as image descriptor to incorporate the property that facial image contains repeated information. Method: Existing CBIR approaches primarily consider colour, texture and low-level features for mapping and localizing image segments. While deep learning has shown high performance in numerous fields of research, its application in CBIR is still very limited. Human face contains significant information to be used in a content driven task and applicable to various applications of computer vision and multimedia systems. In this research work, a deep learning-based model has been discussed for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). In CBIR, there are two important things 1) classification and 2) retrieval of image based on similarity. For the classification purpose a four-convolution layer model has been proposed. For the calculation of the similarity Euclidian distance measure has been used between the images. Results: Proposed model is completely unsupervised, and it is fast and accurate in comparison to other deep learning models applied for CBIR over facial dataset. The proposed method provided satisfactory results from the experiment. It outperforms other CNN-based models and other unsupervised techniques used for CBIR. The proposed method provided satisfactory results from the experiment and it outperforms other CNN-based models such as VGG16, Inception V3, ResNet50 and MobileNet. Moreover, the performance of proposed model has been compared with pre-trained models in terms of accuracy, storage space and inference time.

Plant disease is one of the primary causes of crop yield reduction. With the development of computer vision and deep learning technology, autonomous detection of plant surface lesion images collected by optical sensors has become an important research direction for timely crop disease diagnosis. In this paper, an anthracnose lesion detection method based on deep learning is proposed. Firstly, for the problem of insufficient image data caused by the random occurrence of apple diseases, in addition to traditional image augmentation techniques, Cycle-Consistent Adversarial Network (CycleGAN) deep learning model is used in this paper to accomplish data augmentation. These methods effectively enrich the diversity of training data and provide a solid foundation for training the detection model. In this paper, on the basis of image data augmentation, densely connected neural network (DenseNet) is utilized to optimize feature layers of the YOLO-V3 model which have lower resolution. DenseNet greatly improves the utilization of features in the neural network and enhances the detection result of the YOLO-V3 model. It is verified in experiments that the improved model exceeds Faster R-CNN with VGG16 NET, the original YOLO-V3 model, and other three state-of-the-art networks in detection performance, and it can realize real-time detection. The proposed method can be well applied to the detection of anthracnose lesions on apple surfaces in orchards.

Many plant diseases have distinct visual symptoms which can be used to identify and classify them correctly. This paper presents a potato disease classification algorithm which leverages these distinct appearances and the recent advances in computer vision made possible by deep learning. The algorithm uses a deep convolutional neural network training it to classify the tubers into five classes, four diseases classes and a healthy potato class. The database of images used in this study, containing potatoes of different shapes, sizes and diseases, was acquired, classified, and labelled manually by experts. The models were trained over different train-test splits to better understand the amount of image data needed to apply deep learning for such classification tasks.

The purposes are to solve the isomorphism encountered while processing hyperspectral remote sensing data and improve the accuracy of hyperspectral remote sensing data in extracting and classifying lithological information. Taking rocks as the research object, Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) is introduced. After the hyperspectral image data are normalized, the lithological spectrum and spatial information are the feature extraction targets to construct a deep learning-based lithological information extraction model. The performance of the model is analyzed using specific instance data. Results demonstrate that the overall accuracy and the Kappa coefficient of the lithological information extraction and classification model based on deep learning were 90.58% and 0.8676, respectively. This model can precisely distinguish the properties of rock masses and provide better performance compared with the state of other analysis models. After introducing deep learning, the recognition accuracy and the Kappa coefficient of the proposed BPNN model increased by 8.5% and 0.12, respectively, compared with the traditional BPNN. The proposed extraction and classification model can provide some research values and practical significances for the hyperspectral rock and mineral classification.
