A melanoma is the deadliest skin cancer, so early diagnosis can provide a positive prognosis for treatment. Modern methods for early detecting melanoma on the image of the tumor are considered, and their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. The article demonstrates a prototype of a mobile application for the detection of melanoma on the image of a mole based on a convolutional neural network, which is developed for the Android operating system. The mobile application contains melanoma detection functions, history of the previous examinations and a gallery with images of the previous examinations grouped by the location of the lesion. The HAM10000-based training dataset has been supplemented with the images of melanoma from the archive of The International Skin Imaging Collaboration to eliminate class imbalances and improve network accuracy. The search for existing neural networks that provide high accuracy was conducted, and VGG16, MobileNet, and NASNetMobile neural networks have been selected for research. Transfer learning and fine-tuning has been applied to the given neural networks to adapt the networks for the task of skin lesion classification. It is established that the use of these techniques allows to obtain high accuracy of the neural network for this task. The process of converting a convolutional neural network to an optimized Flatbuffer format using TensorFlow Lite for placement and use on a mobile device is described. The performance characteristics of the selected neural networks on the mobile device are evaluated according to the classification time on the CPU and GPU and the amount of memory occupied by the file of a single network is compared. The neural network file size was compared before and after conversion. It has been shown that the use of the TensorFlow Lite converter significantly reduces the file size of the neural network without affecting its accuracy by using an optimized format. The results of the study indicate a high speed of application and compactness of networks on the device, and the use of graphical acceleration can significantly decrease the image classification time of the tumor. According to the analyzed parameters, NASNetMobile was selected as the optimal neural network to be used in the mobile application of melanoma detection.

In this paper, we propose a multiresidual module convolutional neural network-based method for athlete pose estimation in sports game videos. The network firstly designs an improved residual module based on the traditional residual module. Firstly, a large perceptual field residual module is designed to learn the correlation between the athlete components in the sports game video within a large perceptual field. A multiscale residual module is designed in the paper to better solve the inaccuracy of the pose estimation due to the problem of scale change of the athlete components in the sports game video. Secondly, these three residual modules are used as the building blocks of the convolutional neural network. When the resolution is high, the large perceptual field residual module and the multiscale residual module are used to capture information in a larger range as well as at each scale, and when the resolution is low, only the improved residual module is used. Finally, four multiresidual module convolutional neural networks are used to form the final multiresidual module stacked convolutional neural network. The neural network model proposed in this paper achieves high accuracy of 89.5% and 88.2% on the upper arm and lower arm, respectively, so the method in this paper reduces the influence of occlusion on the athlete’s posture estimation to a certain extent. Through the experiments, it can be seen that the proposed multiresidual module stacked convolutional neural network-based method for athlete pose estimation in sports game videos further improves the accuracy of athlete pose estimation in sports game videos.

In this paper, we present a case study on approximate multipliers for MNIST Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). We apply approximate multipliers with different bit-width to the convolution layer in MNIST CNN, evaluate the accuracy of MNIST classification, and analyze the trade-off between approximate multiplier’s area, critical path delay and the accuracy. Based on the results of the evaluation and analysis, we propose a design methodology for approximate multipliers. The approximate multipliers consist of some partial products, which are carefully selected according to the CNN input. With this methodology, we further reduce the area and the delay of the multipliers with keeping high accuracy of the MNIST classification.

In this paper, the structure of a separable convolutional neural network that consists of an embedding layer, separable convolutional layers, convolutional layer and global average pooling is represented for binary and multiclass text classifications. The advantage of the proposed structure is the absence of multiple fully connected layers, which is used to increase the classification accuracy but raises the computational cost. The combination of low-cost separable convolutional layers and a convolutional layer is proposed to gain high accuracy and, simultaneously, to reduce the complexity of neural classifiers. Advantages are demonstrated at binary and multiclass classifications of written texts by means of the proposed networks under the sigmoid and Softmax activation functions in convolutional layer. At binary and multiclass classifications, the accuracy obtained by separable convolutional neural networks is higher in comparison with some investigated types of recurrent neural networks and fully connected networks.

Abstract In this paper, I proposed an iris recognition system by using deep learning via neural networks (CNN). Although CNN is used for machine learning, the recognition is achieved by building a non-trained CNN network with multiple layers. The main objective of the code the test pictures’ category (aka person name) with a high accuracy rate after having extracted enough features from training pictures of the same category which are obtained from a that I added to the code. I used IITD iris which included 10 iris pictures for 223 people.

Object classification with use of neural networks is extremely current today. YOLO is one of the most often used frameworks for object classification. It produces high accuracy but the processing speed is not high enough especially in conditions of limited performance of a computer. This article researches use of a framework called NVIDIA TensorRT to optimize YOLO with the aim of increasing the image processing speed. Saving efficiency and quality of the neural network work TensorRT allows us to increase the processing speed using an optimization of the architecture and an optimization of calculations on a GPU.

In this paper, the use of artificial neural networks for the myocardial infarction diagnosis is investigated. For the analysis, 169 ECG records were taken from the database of the Massachusetts University of Technology, of which 80 correspond to healthy patients and 89 correspond to patients who have a myocardial infarction. Each signal has been preprocessed. The result of preprocessing each signal is a common segment consisting of 1000 samples. To detect myocardial infarction, a convolutional neural network consisting of two convolutional layers was used. For accuracy of the neural network leave-one-out crossvalidation was used. The best results of the experiments are obtained with the neural network for leads V1, V2, AVF.
