Selecting important features in classifying wood defects remains a challenging issue to the automated visual inspection domain. This study aims to address the extraction and analysis of features based on statistical texture on images of wood defects. A series of procedures including feature extraction using the Grey Level Dependence Matrix (GLDM) and feature analysis were executed in order to investigate the appropriate displacement and quantisation parameters that could significantly classify wood defects. Samples were taken from the KembangSemangkuk (KSK), Meranti and Merbau wood species. Findings from visual analysis and classification accuracy measures suggest that the feature set with the displacement parameter, d=2, and quantisation level, q=128, shows the highest classification accuracy. However, to achieve less computational cost, the feature set with quantisation level, q=32, shows acceptable performance in terms of classification accuracy.

The automated visual inspection of homogeneous flat surface products is a challenging task that needs fast and accurate algorithms for defect detection and classification in real time. Multi-directional and Multi-scale approaches, such as Gabor Filter Banks and Wavelets, have high computational cost in addition to their average performance in defect characterization. This paper presents a novel implementation of a neighborhood-preserving approach for the fast and accurate inspection of fine-structured industrial products using a new neighborhood-preserving cross-correlation feature vector. The fast and noise immune Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) classifier has been found to be very suitable for defect detection in homogeneous non-patterned surfaces with acceptable slight variations, such as textile fabrics. A defect detection accuracy of 99.87% has been achieved with 99.29% recall/sensitivity and 99.91% specificity. The discriminant power shows how well the PNN classifier discriminates between normal and abnormal surfaces. The experimental results show that the proposed system outperforms the Gabor function-based techniques.

This study concern to characterize the pancreas areato head, body and tail using Gray Level Run Length Matrix (GLRLM) and extract classification features from CT images. The GLRLM techniques included eleven’s features. To find the gray level distribution in CT images it complements the GLRLM features extracted from CT images with runs of gray level in pixels and estimate the size distribution of thesubpatterns. analyzing the image with Interactive Data Language IDL software to measure the grey level distribution of images. The results show that the Gray Level Run Length Matrix and  features give classification accuracy of pancreashead 89.2%, body 93.6 and the tail classification accuracy 93.5%. The overall classification accuracy of pancreas area 92.0%.These relationships are stored in a Texture Dictionary that can be later used to automatically annotate new CT images with the appropriate pancreas area names.

Background: Sentiment analysis is a contextual mining of text which determines viewpoint of users with respect to some sentimental topics commonly present at social networking websites. Twitter is one of the social sites where people express their opinion about any topic in the form of tweets. These tweets can be examined using various sentiment classification methods to find the opinion of users. Traditional sentiment analysis methods use manually extracted features for opinion classification. The manual feature extraction process is a complicated task since it requires predefined sentiment lexicons. On the other hand, deep learning methods automatically extract relevant features from data hence; they provide better performance and richer representation competency than the traditional methods. Objective: The main aim of this paper is to enhance the sentiment classification accuracy and to reduce the computational cost. Method: To achieve the objective, a hybrid deep learning model, based on convolution neural network and bi-directional long-short term memory neural network has been introduced. Results: The proposed sentiment classification method achieves the highest accuracy for the most of the datasets. Further, from the statistical analysis efficacy of the proposed method has been validated. Conclusion: Sentiment classification accuracy can be improved by creating veracious hybrid models. Moreover, performance can also be enhanced by tuning the hyper parameters of deep leaning models.

There has been a recent surge in publications related to binarized neural networks (BNNs), which use binary values to represent both the weights and activations in deep neural networks (DNNs). Due to the bitwise nature of BNNs, there have been many efforts to implement BNNs on ASICs and FPGAs. While BNNs are excellent candidates for these kinds of resource-limited systems, most implementations still require very large FPGAs or CPU-FPGA co-processing systems. Our work focuses on reducing the computational cost of BNNs even further, making them more efficient to implement on FPGAs. We target embedded visual inspection tasks, like quality inspection sorting on manufactured parts and agricultural produce sorting. We propose a new binarized convolutional layer, called the neural jet features layer, that learns well-known classic computer vision kernels that are efficient to calculate as a group. We show that on visual inspection tasks, neural jet features perform comparably to standard BNN convolutional layers while using less computational resources. We also show that neural jet features tend to be more stable than BNN convolution layers when training small models.
