In this paper, based on the improved convolutional neural network, in-depth analysis of the CT image of the new coronary pneumonia, using the U-Net series of deep neural networks to semantically segment the CT image of the new coronary pneumonia, to obtain the new coronary pneumonia area as the foreground and the remaining areas as the background of the binary image, provides a basis for subsequent image diagnosis. Secondly, the target-detection framework Faster RCNN extracts features from the CT image of the new coronary pneumonia tumor, obtains a higher-level abstract representation of the data, determines the lesion location of the new coronary pneumonia tumor, and gives its bounding box in the image. By generating an adversarial network to diagnose the lesion area of the CT image of the new coronary pneumonia tumor, obtaining a complete image of the new coronary pneumonia, achieving the effect of the CT image diagnosis of the new coronary pneumonia tumor, and three-dimensionally reconstructing the complete new coronary pneumonia model, filling the current the gap in this aspect, provide a basis to produce new coronary pneumonia prosthesis and improve the accuracy of diagnosis.

The recognition of human emotions is one of the most relevant and dynamically developing areas of modern speech technologies, and the recognition of emotions in speech (RER) is the most demanded part of them. In this paper, we propose a computer model of emotion recognition based on an ensemble of bidirectional recurrent neural network with LSTM memory cell and deep convolutional neural network ResNet18. In this paper, computer studies of the RAVDESS database containing emotional speech of a person are carried out. RAVDESS-a data set containing 7356 files. Entries contain the following emotions: 0 – neutral, 1 – calm, 2 – happiness, 3 – sadness, 4 – anger, 5 – fear, 6 – disgust, 7 – surprise. In total, the database contains 16 classes (8 emotions divided into male and female) for a total of 1440 samples (speech only). To train machine learning algorithms and deep neural networks to recognize emotions, existing audio recordings must be pre-processed in such a way as to extract the main characteristic features of certain emotions. This was done using Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients, chroma coefficients, as well as the characteristics of the frequency spectrum of audio recordings. In this paper, computer studies of various models of neural networks for emotion recognition are carried out on the example of the data described above. In addition, machine learning algorithms were used for comparative analysis. Thus, the following models were trained during the experiments: logistic regression (LR), classifier based on the support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), gradient boosting over trees – XGBoost, convolutional neural network CNN, recurrent neural network RNN (ResNet18), as well as an ensemble of convolutional and recurrent networks Stacked CNN-RNN. The results show that neural networks showed much higher accuracy in recognizing and classifying emotions than the machine learning algorithms used. Of the three neural network models presented, the CNN + BLSTM ensemble showed higher accuracy.

This article presents an analysis of the effectiveness of object detection in digital images with the application of a limited quantity of input. The possibility of using a limited set of learning data was achieved by developing a detailed scenario of the task, which strictly defined the conditions of detector operation in the considered case of a convolutional neural network. The described solution utilizes known architectures of deep neural networks in the process of learning and object detection. The article presents comparisons of results from detecting the most popular deep neural networks while maintaining a limited training set composed of a specific number of selected images from diagnostic video. The analyzed input material was recorded during an inspection flight conducted along high-voltage lines. The object detector was built for a power insulator. The main contribution of the presented papier is the evidence that a limited training set (in our case, just 60 training frames) could be used for object detection, assuming an outdoor scenario with low variability of environmental conditions. The decision of which network will generate the best result for such a limited training set is not a trivial task. Conducted research suggests that the deep neural networks will achieve different levels of effectiveness depending on the amount of training data. The most beneficial results were obtained for two convolutional neural networks: the faster region-convolutional neural network (faster R-CNN) and the region-based fully convolutional network (R-FCN). Faster R-CNN reached the highest AP (average precision) at a level of 0.8 for 60 frames. The R-FCN model gained a worse AP result; however, it can be noted that the relationship between the number of input samples and the obtained results has a significantly lower influence than in the case of other CNN models, which, in the authors’ assessment, is a desired feature in the case of a limited training set.


Neural Networks (ANN) has evolved through many stages in the last three decades with many researchers contributing in this challenging field. With the power of math complex problems can also be solved by ANNs. ANNs like Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Deep Neural network, Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) network, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), Ordinary Differential Network etc., are playing promising roles in many MNCs and IT industries for their predictions and accuracy. In this paper, Convolutional Neural Network is used for prediction of Beep sounds in high noise levels. Based on Supervised Learning, the research is developed the best CNN architecture for Beep sound recognition in noisy situations. The proposed method gives better results with an accuracy of 96%. The prototype is tested with few architectures for the training and test data out of which a two layer CNN classifier predictions were the best.

Abstract Composite materials have enormous applications in various fields. Thus, it is important to have an efficient damage detection method to avoid catastrophic failures. Due to the existence of multiple damage modes and the availability of data in different formats, it is important to employ efficient techniques to consider all the types of damage. Deep neural networks were seen to exhibit the ability to address similar complex problems. The research question in this work is ‘Can data fusion improve damage classification using the convolutional neural network?’ The specific aims developed were to 1) assess the performance of image encoding algorithms, 2) classify the damage using data from separate experimental coupons, and 3) classify the damage using mixed data from multiple experimental coupons. Two different experimental measurements were taken from NASA Ames Prognostic Repository for Carbon Fiber Reinforced polymer. To use data fusion, the piezoelectric signals were converted into images using Gramian Angular Field (GAF) and Markov Transition Field. Using data fusion techniques, the input dataset was created for a convolutional neural network with three hidden layers to determine the damage states. The accuracies of all the image encoding algorithms were compared. The analysis showed that data fusion provided better results as it contained more information on the damages modes that occur in composite materials. Additionally, GAF was shown to perform the best. Thus, the combination of data fusion and deep neural network techniques provides an efficient method for damage detection of composite materials.

Object classification problem is essential in many applications nowadays. Human can easily classify objects in unconstrained environments easily. Classical classification techniques were far away from human performance. Thus, researchers try to mimic the human visual system till they reached the deep neural networks. This chapter gives a review and analysis in the field of the deep convolutional neural network usage in object classification under constrained and unconstrained environment. The chapter gives a brief review on the classical techniques of object classification and the development of bio-inspired computational models from neuroscience till the creation of deep neural networks. A review is given on the constrained environment issues: the hardware computing resources and memory, the object appearance and background, and the training and processing time. Datasets that are used to test the performance are analyzed according to the images environmental conditions, besides the dataset biasing is discussed.
