Objectives: The purpose of this study was to automatically diagnose odontogenic cysts and tumors of both jaws on panoramic radiographs using deep learning. We proposed a novel framework of deep convolution neural network (CNN) with data augmentation for detection and classification of the multiple diseases. Methods: We developed a deep CNN modified from YOLOv3 for detecting and classifying odontogenic cysts and tumors of both jaws. Our data set of 1282 panoramic radiographs comprised 350 dentigerous cysts (DCs), 302 periapical cysts (PCs), 300 odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs), 230 ameloblastomas (ABs), and 100 normal jaws with no disease. In addition, the number of radiographs was augmented 12-fold by flip, rotation, and intensity changes. We evaluated the classification performance of the developed CNN by calculating sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) for diseases of both jaws. Results: The overall classification performance for the diseases improved from 78.2% sensitivity, 93.9% specificity,91.3% accuracy, and 0.86 AUC using the CNN with unaugmented data set to 88.9% sensitivity, 97.2% specificity, 95.6% accuracy, and 0.94 AUC using the CNN with augmented data set. CNN using augmented data set had the following sensitivities, specificities, accuracies, and AUCs: 91.4%, 99.2%, 97.8%, and 0.96 for DCs, 82.8%, 99.2%, 96.2%, and 0.92 for PCs, 98.4%,92.3%,94.0%, and 0.97 for OKCs, 71.7%, 100%, 94.3%, and 0.86 for ABs, and 100.0%, 95.1%, 96.0%, and 0.97 for normal jaws, respectively. Conclusion: The CNN method we developed for automatically diagnosing odontogenic cysts and tumors of both jaws on panoramic radiographs using data augmentation showed high sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and AUC despite the limited number of panoramic images involved.

Processing Framework

Classification algorithms for automatically detecting sea surface oil spills from spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radars (SARs) can usually be regarded as part of a three-step processing framework, which briefly includes image segmentation, feature extraction, and target classification. A Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN), named the Oil Spill Convolutional Network (OSCNet), is proposed in this paper for SAR oil spill detection, which can do the latter two steps of the three-step processing framework. Based on VGG-16, the OSCNet is obtained by designing the architecture and adjusting hyperparameters with the data set of SAR dark patches. With the help of the big data set containing more than 20,000 SAR dark patches and data augmentation, the OSCNet can have as many as 12 weight layers. It is a relatively deep Deep Learning (DL) network for SAR oil spill detection. It is shown by the experiments based on the same data set that the classification performance of OSCNet has been significantly improved compared to that of traditional machine learning (ML). The accuracy, recall, and precision are improved from 92.50%, 81.40%, and 80.95% to 94.01%, 83.51%, and 85.70%, respectively. An important reason for this improvement is that the distinguishability of the features learned by OSCNet itself from the data set is significantly higher than that of the hand-crafted features needed by traditional ML algorithms. In addition, experiments show that data augmentation plays an important role in avoiding over-fitting and hence improves the classification performance. OSCNet has also been compared with other DL classifiers for SAR oil spill detection. Due to the huge differences in the data sets, only their similarities and differences are discussed at the principle level.

Alcohol can act quickly in the human body and alter mood and behavior. If alcohol is consumed in excess, it will accumulate in the organs of the body, especially in the liver and brain. To a certain extent, the symptoms of alcoholism will appear. So far, the main method of diagnosis of alcoholic brain injury is through MRI images by radiologists. However, this is a very subjective diagnosis. Radiologists may be affected by external factors, such as physical discomfort, lack of rest, inattention, etc., resulting in diagnostic errors. In this paper, we proposed a novel 8-layer customized deep convolution neural network for alcoholic brain injury detection, which contains five convolution layers, five pooling layers, and three fully connected layers. There are three improvements in this paper, (i) Based on deep learning, we proposed a method for automatic diagnosis of alcoholic brain injury; (ii) We introduced Dropout to the proposed structure to improve robustness; (iii) Compared with other state-of-the-art approaches, the proposed structure is more efficient. The experimental results showed that the sensitivity, specificity, precision, accuracy, F1, MCC and FMI were 96.14±1.99, 96.20±1.47, 95.98±1.54, 96.17±1.55, 96.05±1.62, 93.34±3.11, 96.06±1.62 respectively. According to comparison results, our method performed the best. The proposed model is effective in detecting alcoholic brain injury based on MRI images.

<p>As an important research achievement in the field of brain like computing, deep convolution neural network has been widely used in many fields such as computer vision, natural language processing, information retrieval, speech recognition, semantic understanding and so on. It has set off a wave of neural network research in industry and academia and promoted the development of artificial intelligence. At present, the deep convolution neural network mainly simulates the complex hierarchical cognitive laws of the human brain by increasing the number of layers of the network, using a larger training data set, and improving the network structure or training learning algorithm of the existing neural network, so as to narrow the gap with the visual system of the human brain and enable the machine to acquire the capability of "abstract concepts". Deep convolution neural network has achieved great success in many computer vision tasks such as image classification, target detection, face recognition, pedestrian recognition, etc. Firstly, this paper reviews the development history of convolutional neural networks. Then, the working principle of the deep convolution neural network is analyzed in detail.

In the development of high-tech industries, graphite has become increasingly more important. The world has gradually entered the graphite era from the silicon era. In order to make good use of high-quality graphite resources, a graphite classification and recognition algorithm based on an improved convolution neural network is proposed in this paper. Based on the self-built initial data set, the offline expansion and online enhancement of the data set can effectively expand the data set and reduce the risk of deep convolution neural network overfitting. Based on the visual geometry group 16 (VGG16), residual net 34 (ResNet34), and mobile net Vision 2 (MobileNet V2), a new output module is redesigned and loaded into the full connection layer. The improved migration network enhances the generalization ability and robustness of the model; moreover, combined with the focal loss function, the superparameters of the model are modified and trained on the basis of the graphite data set. The simulation results illustrate that the recognition accuracy of the proposed method is significantly improved, the convergence speed is accelerated, and the model is more stable, which proves the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Background: Alcoholism is caused by excessive alcohol into the human body. Alcohol primarily damages the central nervous system of the human body and causes the nervous system function disorder and inhibition. Severe addiction can lead to respiratory circulation center inhibition, paralysis and even death. So far, the diagnosis of alcoholism is done by radiologist's manual CT examination. However, the diagnosis process is time-consuming, subjective and boring for doctors. External factors, such as extreme fatigue, lack of sleep and mental concentration, can easily affect the diagnosis process.Methods: In order to solve this problem, this paper proposed a new neural network based on computer vision, which used deep convolution neural network to diagnose alcoholism automatically. A total of 216 brain images were collected. In the 6-layer customized deep convolution neural network structure, there were four convolution layers and two fully connected layers, and each convolution layer was connected with a pooling layer.Results: The results showed that the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, F1, MCC and FMI were 95.96%±1.44%, 95.96%±1.66%, 95.95%±1.67%, 95.73%±1.72%, 95.84%±1.48%, 91.92%±2.87% and 95.84%±1.48% respectively.Conclusion: It can be concluded from comparison results that the proposed neural network structure is more effective than four state-of-the-art approaches. The proposed method has high accuracy and can be used as a diagnostic method for alcoholism.

Diagnostic Time

Nowadays, Coronavirus (COVID-19) considered one of the most critical pandemics in the earth. This is due its ability to spread rapidly between humans as well as animals. COVID_19 expected to outbreak around the world, around 70 % of the earth population might infected with COVID-19 in the incoming years. Therefore, an accurate and efficient diagnostic tool is highly required, which the main objective of our study. Manual classification was mainly used to detect different diseases, but it took too much time in addition to the probability of human errors. Automatic image classification reduces doctors diagnostic time, which could save human’s life. We propose an automatic classification architecture based on deep neural network called Worried Deep Neural Network (WDNN) model with transfer learning. Comparative analysis reveals that the proposed WDNN model outperforms by using three pre-training models: InceptionV3, ResNet50, and VGG19 in terms of various performance metrics. Due to the shortage of COVID-19 data set, data augmentation was used to increase the number of images in the positive class, then normalization used to make all images have the same size. Experimentation is done on COVID-19 dataset collected from different cases with total 2623 where (1573 training,524 validation,524 test). Our proposed model achieved 99,046, 98,684, 99,119, 98,90 In terms of Accuracy, precision, Recall, F-score, respectively. The results are compared with both the traditional machine learning methods and those using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The results demonstrate the ability of our classification model to use as an alternative of the current diagnostic tool.

Useful Life

The rolling bearing is the crucial component in the rotating machinery. The degradation process monitoring and remaining useful life prediction of the bearing are necessary for the condition-based maintenance. The commonly used deep learning methods use the raw or processed time domain data as the input. However, the feature extracted by these approaches is insufficient and incomprehensive. To tackle this problem, this paper proposed an improved Deep Convolution Neural Network with the dual-channel input from the time and frequency domain in parallel. The proposed methodology consists of two stages: the incipient failure identification and the degradation process fitting. To verify the effectiveness of the method, the IEEE PHM 2012 dataset is adopted to compare the proposed method and other commonly used approaches. The results show that the improved Deep Convolution Neural Network can effectively describe the degradation process for the rolling bearing.
