In recent years, deep learning methods have been developed in order to solve the problems. These methods were effective in solving complex problems. Convolution is one of the learning methods. This method is applied in classifying and processing of images as well. Hybrid methods are another multi-component machine learning method. These methods are categorized into independent and dependent types. Ada-Boosting algorithm is one of these methods. Today, the classification of images has many applications. So far, several algorithms have been presented for binary and multi-class classification. Most of the above-mentioned methods have a high dependence on the data. The present study intends to use a combination of deep learning methods and associated hybrid methods to classify the images. It is presumed that this method is able to reduce the error rate in images classification. The proposed algorithm consists of the Ada-Boosting hybrid method and bi-layer convolutional learning method. The proposed method was analyzed after it was implemented on a multi-class Mnist data set and displayed the result of the error rate reduction. The results of this study indicate that the error rate of the proposed method is less than Ada-Boosting and convolution methods. Also, the network has more stability compared to the other methods.

Visible-near-infrared spectrum (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy technology is one of the most important methods for non-destructive and rapid detection of soil total nitrogen (STN) content. In order to find a practical way to build STN content prediction model, three conventional machine learning methods and one deep learning approach are investigated and their predictive performances are compared and analyzed by using a public dataset called LUCAS Soil (19,019 samples). The three conventional machine learning methods include ordinary least square estimation (OLSE), random forest (RF), and extreme learning machine (ELM), while for the deep learning method, three different structures of convolutional neural network (CNN) incorporated Inception module are constructed and investigated. In order to clarify effectiveness of different pre-treatments on predicting STN content, the three conventional machine learning methods are combined with four pre-processing approaches (including baseline correction, smoothing, dimensional reduction, and feature selection) are investigated, compared, and analyzed. The results indicate that the baseline-corrected and smoothed ELM model reaches practical precision (coefficient of determination (R2) = 0.89, root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) = 1.60 g/kg, and residual prediction deviation (RPD) = 2.34). While among three different structured CNN models, the one with more 1 × 1 convolutions preforms better (R2 = 0.93; RMSEP = 0.95 g/kg; and RPD = 3.85 in optimal case). In addition, in order to evaluate the influence of data set characteristics on the model, the LUCAS data set was divided into different data subsets according to dataset size, organic carbon (OC) content and countries, and the results show that the deep learning method is more effective and practical than conventional machine learning methods and, on the premise of enough data samples, it can be used to build a robust STN content prediction model with high accuracy for the same type of soil with similar agricultural treatment.

Objective: New psychoactive substances (NPS) have been rapidly developed to avoid legal entanglement. In 2013–2018, the number of cathinonederivedcompounds increased from 30 to 89. In 2016, of 56 NPS compounds, 21 were identified as cannabinoid-derived; only 43 were regulated inthe narcotics law. Artificial intelligence, such as machine and deep learning, is a method of data processing and object recognition, including humanposes and image classifications.Methods: Herein, the machine and deep learning methods for cathinone- and cannabinoid-derived compound classification were compared usingpharmacophore modeling as the reference method. For classifying cathinone-derived compounds, the structure was transformed into fingerprints,which was used as a learning parameter for the machine and deep learning methods. Contrarily, the physicochemical properties and fingerprint shapewere utilized as learning materials for the deep learning method to classify the cannabinoid-derived substances.Results: Consequently, in the cathinone-derived compound classification, the deep learning method produced the accuracy and Cohen kappa valuesof 0.9932 and 0.992, respectively. Furthermore, such values in the pharmacophore modeling method were higher than those in the machine learningmethod (0.911 and 0.708 vs. 0.718 and 0.673, respectively). In the cannabinoid-derived compound classification, the deep learning method with thefingerprint form had the highest accuracy and Cohen kappa values (0.9904 and 0.9876). Such values in this method with the descriptor form werehigher than those in the pharmacophore modeling method (0.8958 and 0.8622 vs. 0.68 and 0.396, respectively).Conclusion: The deep learning method has the potential in the NPS classification.

X-ray CT imaging provides a 3D view of a sample and is a powerful tool for investigating the internal features of porous rock. Reliable phase segmentation in these images is highly necessary but, like any other digital rock imaging technique, is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subjective. Combining 3D X-ray CT imaging with machine learning methods that can simultaneously consider several extracted features in addition to color attenuation, is a promising and powerful method for reliable phase segmentation. Machine learning-based phase segmentation of X-ray CT images enables faster data collection and interpretation than traditional methods. This study investigates the performance of several filtering techniques with three machine learning methods and a deep learning method to assess the potential for reliable feature extraction and pixel-level phase segmentation of X-ray CT images. Features were first extracted from images using well-known filters and from the second convolutional layer of the pre-trained VGG16 architecture. Then, K-means clustering, Random Forest, and Feed Forward Artificial Neural Network methods, as well as the modified U-Net model, were applied to the extracted input features. The models’ performances were then compared and contrasted to determine the influence of the machine learning method and input features on reliable phase segmentation. The results showed considering more dimensionality has promising results and all classification algorithms result in high accuracy ranging from 0.87 to 0.94. Feature-based Random Forest demonstrated the best performance among the machine learning models, with an accuracy of 0.88 for Mancos and 0.94 for Marcellus. The U-Net model with the linear combination of focal and dice loss also performed well with an accuracy of 0.91 and 0.93 for Mancos and Marcellus, respectively. In general, considering more features provided promising and reliable segmentation results that are valuable for analyzing the composition of dense samples, such as shales, which are significant unconventional reservoirs in oil recovery.

Purpose The latest 2019 coronavirus (COVID-2019), which first appeared in December 2019 in Wuhan's city in China, rapidly spread around the world and became a pandemic. It has had a devastating impact on daily lives, the public's health and the global economy. The positive cases must be identified as soon as possible to avoid further dissemination of this disease and swift care of patients affected. The need for supportive diagnostic instruments increased, as no specific automated toolkits are available. The latest results from radiology imaging techniques indicate that these photos provide valuable details on the virus COVID-19. User advanced artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and radiological imagery can help diagnose this condition accurately and help resolve the lack of specialist doctors in isolated areas. In this research, a new paradigm for automatic detection of COVID-19 with bare chest X-ray images is displayed. Images are presented. The proposed model DarkCovidNet is designed to provide correct binary classification diagnostics (COVID vs no detection) and multi-class (COVID vs no results vs pneumonia) classification. The implemented model computed the average precision for the binary and multi-class classification of 98.46% and 91.352%, respectively, and an average accuracy of 98.97% and 87.868%. The DarkNet model was used in this research as a classifier for a real-time object detection method only once. A total of 17 convolutionary layers and different filters on each layer have been implemented. This platform can be used by the radiologists to verify their initial application screening and can also be used for screening patients through the cloud. Design/methodology/approach This study also uses the CNN-based model named Darknet-19 model, and this model will act as a platform for the real-time object detection system. The architecture of this system is designed in such a way that they can be able to detect real-time objects. This study has developed the DarkCovidNet model based on Darknet architecture with few layers and filters. So before discussing the DarkCovidNet model, look at the concept of Darknet architecture with their functionality. Typically, the DarkNet architecture consists of 5 pool layers though the max pool and 19 convolution layers. Assume as a convolution layer, and as a pooling layer. Findings The work discussed in this paper is used to diagnose the various radiology images and to develop a model that can accurately predict or classify the disease. The data set used in this work is the images bases on COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 taken from the various sources. The deep learning model named DarkCovidNet is applied to the data set, and these have shown signification performance in the case of binary classification and multi-class classification. During the multi-class classification, the model has shown an average accuracy 98.97% for the detection of COVID-19, whereas in a multi-class classification model has achieved an average accuracy of 87.868% during the classification of COVID-19, no detection and Pneumonia. Research limitations/implications One of the significant limitations of this work is that a limited number of chest X-ray images were used. It is observed that patients related to COVID-19 are increasing rapidly. In the future, the model on the larger data set which can be generated from the local hospitals will be implemented, and how the model is performing on the same will be checked. Originality/value Deep learning technology has made significant changes in the field of AI by generating good results, especially in pattern recognition. A conventional CNN structure includes a convolution layer that extracts characteristics from the input using the filters it applies, a pooling layer that reduces calculation efficiency and the neural network's completely connected layer. A CNN model is created by integrating one or more of these layers, and its internal parameters are modified to accomplish a specific mission, such as classification or object recognition. A typical CNN structure has a convolution layer that extracts features from the input with the filters it applies, a pooling layer to reduce the size for computational performance and a fully connected layer, which is a neural network. A CNN model is created by combining one or more such layers, and its internal parameters are adjusted to accomplish a particular task, such as classification or object recognition.
