Pests are major threat to economic growth of a country. Application of pesticide is the easiest way to control the pest infection. However, excessive utilization of pesticide is hazardous to environment. The recent advances in deep learning have paved the way for early detection and improved classification of pest in tomato plants which will benefit the farmers. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of 11 state-of-the-art deep convolutional neural network (CNN) models with three configurations: transfers learning, fine-tuning and scratch learning. The training in transfer learning and fine tuning initiates from pre-trained weights whereas random weights are used in case of scratch learning. In addition, the concept of data augmentation has been explored to improve the performance. Our dataset consists of 859 tomato pest images from 10 categories. The results demonstrate that the highest classification accuracy of 94.87% has been achieved in the transfer learning approach by DenseNet201 model with data augmentation.

More than 35 million patients are suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and this number is growing, which puts a heavy burden on countries around the world. Early detection is of benefit, in which the deep learning can aid AD identification effectively and gain ideal results. A novel eight-layer convolutional neural network with batch normalization and dropout techniques for classification of Alzheimer’s disease was proposed. After data augmentation, the training dataset contained 7399 AD patient and 7399 HC subjects. Our eight-layer CNN-BN-DO-DA method yielded a sensitivity of 97.77%, a specificity of 97.76%, a precision of 97.79%, an accuracy of 97.76%, a F1 of 97.76%, and a MCC of 95.56% on the test set, which achieved the best performance in seven state-of-the-art approaches. The results strongly demonstrate that this method can effectively assist the clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.

This paper investigates the classification of radiographic images with eleven convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures (GoogleNet, VGG-19, AlexNet, SqueezeNet, ResNet-18, Inception-v3, ResNet-50, VGG-16, ResNet-101, DenseNet-201 and Inception-ResNet-v2). The CNNs were used to classify a series of wrist radiographs from the Stanford Musculoskeletal Radiographs (MURA) dataset into two classes - normal and abnormal. The architectures were compared for different hyper-parameters against accuracy and Cohen's kappa coefficient. The best two results were then explored with data augmentation. Without the use of augmentation, the best results were provided by Inception-Resnet-v2 (Mean accuracy = 0.723, Mean kappa = 0.506). These were significantly improved with augmentation to Inception-Resnet-v2 (Mean accuracy = 0.857, Mean kappa = 0.703). Finally, Class Activation Mapping was applied to interpret activation of the network against the location of an anomaly in the radiographs.

Indonesia is one of the countries which have the best Gambier quality in the world. Those are a few areas in Indonesia which have best gambier quality such as Aceh, Riau, North Sumatera, Bengkulu, South Sumatera and West Sumatra. Kabupaten 50 Kota is one of the regencies in west Sumatra that supplies gambier in Indonesia. The gambier leaf selection is mostly done by manual inspection or conventional method. The leaf color, thickness and structure are the important parameters in selecting gambier leaf quality. Farmers usually classify the quality of gambier leaves into good and bad. Computer Vision can help farmers to classify gambier leaves automatically. To realize this proposed method, gambier leaves are collected to create a dataset for training and testing processes. The gambier image leaves is captured by using DLSR camera at Kabupaten 50 Koto manually. 60 images were collected in this research which separated into 30 images with good and 30 images with bad quality. Furthermore, the gambier leaves image is processed by using digital image processing and coded by using python programming language. Both TensorFlow and Keras were implemented as frameworks in this research. To get a faster processing time, Ubuntu 18.04 Linux is selected as an operating system. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is the basis of image classification and object detection. In this research, the miniVGGNet architecture was used to perform the model creation. A quantity of dataset images was increased by applying data augmentation methods. The result of image augmentation for good quality gambier produced 3000 images. The same method was applied to poor quality images, the same results were obtained as many as 3000 images, with a total of 6000 images. The classification of gambier leaves produced by the Convolutional Neural Network method using miniVGGNet architecture obtained an accuracy rate of 0.979 or 98%. This method can be used to classify the quality of Gambier leaves very well.
