paper, we focus on exploring the relationship between weave patterns and their mechanical properties in woven fiber composites through Machine Learning. Specifically, we explore the interactions between woven architectures and in-plane stiffness properties through Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). Our research is important for exploring how woven composite’s pattern is related to its mechanical properties and accelerating woven composite design as well as optimization. We focus on two tasks: (1) Stiffness prediction: Predicting in-plane stiffness properties for given weave patterns. Our DCNN extracts high-level features through several convolutional and fully connected layers to determine the final predictions. (2) Weave pattern prediction: Predicting weave patterns for target stiffness properties, which can be treated as the reverse task of the first one. Due to many-to-one mapping between weave patterns and the composite properties, we utilize a Decoder Neural Network as our baseline model and compare its performance with GAN and Genetic Algorithm. We represent the weave patterns as 2D checkerboard models and use finite element analysis (FEA) to determine in-plane stiffness properties, which serve as input data for our ML framework. We show that: (1) for stiffness prediction, DCNN can predict stiffness values for a given weave pattern with relatively high accuracy (above 93%); (2) for weave pattern prediction, the GAN model gives the best prediction accuracy (above 92%) while Decoder Neural Network has the best time efficiency.

Recently, researchers have been studying methods to introduce deep learning into automated optical inspection (AOI) systems to reduce labor costs. However, the integration of deep learning in the industry may encounter major challenges such as sample imbalance (defective products that only account for a small proportion). Therefore, in this study, an anomaly detection neural network, dual auto-encoder generative adversarial network (DAGAN), was developed to solve the problem of sample imbalance. With skip-connection and dual auto-encoder architecture, the proposed method exhibited excellent image reconstruction ability and training stability. Three datasets, namely public industrial detection training set, MVTec AD, with mobile phone screen glass and wood defect detection datasets, were used to verify the inspection ability of DAGAN. In addition, training with a limited amount of data was proposed to verify its detection ability. The results demonstrated that the areas under the curve (AUCs) of DAGAN were better than previous generative adversarial network-based anomaly detection models in 13 out of 17 categories in these datasets, especially in categories with high variability or noise. The maximum AUC improvement was 0.250 (toothbrush). Moreover, the proposed method exhibited better detection ability than the U-Net auto-encoder, which indicates the function of discriminator in this application. Furthermore, the proposed method had a high level of AUCs when using only a small amount of training data. DAGAN can significantly reduce the time and cost of collecting and labeling data when it is applied to industrial detection.

Borehole Image

Borehole image logs are used to identify the presence and orientation of fractures, both natural and induced, found in reservoir intervals. The contrast in electrical or acoustic properties of the rock matrix and fluid-filled fractures is sufficiently large enough that sub-resolution features can be detected by these image logging tools. The resolution of these image logs is based on the design and operation of the tools, and generally is in the millimeter per pixel range. Hence the quantitative measurement of actual width remains problematic. An artificial intelligence (AI) -based workflow combines the statistical information obtained from a Machine-Learning (ML) segmentation process with a multiple-layer neural network that defines a Deep Learning process that enhances fractures in a borehole image. These new images allow for a more robust analysis of fracture widths, especially those that are sub-resolution. The images from a BHTV log were first segmented into rock and fluid-filled fractures using a ML-segmentation tool that applied multiple image processing filters that captured information to describe patterns in fracture-rock distribution based on nearest-neighbor behavior. The robust ML analysis was trained by users to identify these two components over a short interval in the well, and then the regression model-based coefficients applied to the remaining log. Based on the training, each pixel was assigned a probability value between 1.0 (being a fracture) and 0.0 (pure rock), with most of the pixels assigned one of these two values. Intermediate probabilities represented pixels on the edge of rock-fracture interface or the presence of one or more sub-resolution fractures within the rock. The probability matrix produced a map or image of the distribution of probabilities that determined whether a given pixel in the image was a fracture or partially filled with a fracture. The Deep Learning neural network was based on a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (cGAN) approach where the probability map was first encoded and combined with a noise vector that acted as a seed for diverse feature generation. This combination was used to generate new images that represented the BHTV response. The second layer of the neural network, the adversarial or discriminator portion, determined whether the generated images were representative of the actual BHTV by comparing the generated images with actual images from the log and producing an output probability of whether it was real or fake. This probability was then used to train the generator and discriminator models that were then applied to the entire log. Several scenarios were run with different probability maps. The enhanced BHTV images brought out fractures observed in the core photos that were less obvious in the original BTHV log through enhanced continuity and improved resolution on fracture widths.

We propose a novel introspective model for variational neural machine translation (IntroVNMT) in this paper, inspired by the recent successful application of introspective variational autoencoder (IntroVAE) in high quality image synthesis. Different from the vanilla variational NMT model, IntroVNMT is capable of improving itself introspectively by evaluating the quality of the generated target sentences according to the high-level latent variables of the real and generated target sentences. As a consequence of introspective training, the proposed model is able to discriminate between the generated and real sentences of the target language via the latent variables generated by the encoder of the model. In this way, IntroVNMT is able to generate more realistic target sentences in practice. In the meantime, IntroVNMT inherits the advantages of the variational autoencoders (VAEs), and the model training process is more stable than the generative adversarial network (GAN) based models. Experimental results on different translation tasks demonstrate that the proposed model can achieve significant improvements over the vanilla variational NMT model.

Aiming at the problem of the difficulty of high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image acquisition and poor feature characterization ability of low-resolution SAR image, this paper proposes a method of an automatic target recognition method for SAR images based on a super-resolution generative adversarial network (SRGAN) and deep convolutional neural network (DCNN). First, the threshold segmentation is utilized to eliminate the SAR image background clutter and speckle noise and accurately extract target area of interest. Second, the low-resolution SAR image is enhanced through SRGAN to improve the visual resolution and the feature characterization ability of target in the SAR image. Third, the automatic classification and recognition for SAR image is realized by using DCNN with good generalization performance. Finally, the open data set, moving and stationary target acquisition and recognition, is utilized and good recognition results are obtained under standard operating condition and extended operating conditions, which verify the effectiveness, robustness, and good generalization performance of the proposed method.

Art Style

Convolutional Neural Network- (CNN-) based GAN models mainly suffer from problems such as data set limitation and rendering efficiency in the segmentation and rendering of painting art. In order to solve these problems, this paper uses the improved cycle generative adversarial network (CycleGAN) to render the current image style. This method replaces the deep residual network (ResNet) of the original network generator with a dense connected convolutional network (DenseNet) and uses the perceptual loss function for adversarial training. The painting art style rendering system built in this paper is based on perceptual adversarial network (PAN) for the improved CycleGAN that suppresses the limitation of the network model on paired samples. The proposed method also improves the quality of the image generated by the artistic style of painting and further improves the stability and speeds up the network convergence speed. Experiments were conducted on the painting art style rendering system based on the proposed model. Experimental results have shown that the image style rendering method based on the perceptual adversarial error to improve the CycleGAN + PAN model can achieve better results. The PSNR value of the generated image is increased by 6.27% on average, and the SSIM values are all increased by about 10%. Therefore, the improved CycleGAN + PAN image painting art style rendering method produces better painting art style images, which has strong application value.
