In this paper, we propose a deep propagation based image matting framework by introducing deep learning into learning an alpha matte propagation principal. Our deep learning architecture is a concatenation of a deep feature extraction module, an affinity learning module and a matte propagation module. These three modules are all differentiable and can be optimized jointly via an end-to-end training process. Our framework results in a semantic-level pairwise similarity of pixels for propagation by learning deep image representations adapted to matte propagation. It combines the power of deep learning and matte propagation and can therefore surpass prior state-of-the-art matting techniques in terms of both accuracy and training complexity, as validated by our experimental results from 243K images created based on two benchmark matting databases.

Deep Feature Extraction

Paddy is an essential nutrient worldwide. Rice gives 21% of worldwide human per capita energy and 15% of per capita protein. Asia represented 60% of the worldwide populace, about 92% of the world’s rice creation, and 90% of worldwide rice utilization. With the increase in population, the demand for rice is increased. So, the productivity of farming is needed to be enhanced by introducing new technology. Deep learning and IoT are hot topics for research in various fields. This paper suggested a setup comprising deep learning and IoT for monitoring of paddy field remotely. The vgg16 pre-trained network is considered for the identification of paddy leaf diseases and nitrogen status estimation. Here, two strategies are carried out to identify images: transfer learning and deep feature extraction. The deep feature extraction approach is combined with a support vector machine (SVM) to classify images. The transfer learning approach of vgg16 for identifying four types of leaf diseases and prediction of nitrogen status results in 79.86% and 84.88% accuracy. Again, the deep features of Vgg16 and SVM results for identifying four types of leaf diseases and prediction of nitrogen status have achieved an accuracy of 97.31% and 99.02%, respectively. Besides, a framework is suggested for monitoring of paddy field remotely based on IoT and deep learning. The suggested prototype’s superiority is that it controls temperature and humidity like the state-of-the-art and can monitor the additional two aspects, such as detecting nitrogen status and diseases.

Residual Useful Life (RUL) prediction is a key step of Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM). Deep learning-based techniques have shown wonderful prospects on RUL prediction, although their performances depend on heavy structures and parameter tuning strategies of these deep-learning models. In this paper, we propose a novel Deep Belief Network (DBN) model constructed by improved conditional Restrict Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) and apply it in RUL prediction for hydraulic pumps. DBN is a deep probabilistic digraph neural network that consists of multiple layers of RBMs. Since RBM is an undirected graph model and there is no communication among the nodes of the same layer, the deep feature extraction capability of the original DBN model can hardly ensure the accuracy of modeling continuous data. To address this issue, the DBN model is improved by replacing RBM with the Improved Conditional RBM (ICRBM) that adds timing linkage factors and constraint variables among the nodes of the same layers on the basis of RBM. The proposed model is applied to RUL prediction of hydraulic pumps, and the results show that the prediction model proposed in this paper has higher prediction accuracy compared with traditional DBNs, BP networks, support vector machines and modified DBNs such as DEBN and GC-DBN.

As the functions of mobile applications become more and more complex, the crowdsourcing testing puts higher demands on the professional skills of testers. Therefore, it is an important factor to ensure test quality how to effectively match test task requirements with test personnel's skill level and achieve accurate crowdsourcing test task recommendation. This paper proposes a crowdsourcing test task recommendation algorithm for mobile applications based on deep learning. Firstly, feature analysis is carried out for testing tasks and testers, and feature systems are designed respectively. Second, the resulting characteristic data is used as input data for the Stacked Marginalized Denoising Autoencoder (SMDA). The deep feature data learned from SMDA are combined as the input of Deep Neural Networks (DNN). Finally, the learning ability of DNN is used for prediction. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has obvious advantages in both performance and training time compared with CDL and AUTOSVD ++, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The proposed algorithm can recommend testing tasks to appropriate testers and improve the precision of the algorithm.

In the era of rapid growth of technologies, image matting plays a key role in image and video editing along with image composition. In many significant real-world applications such as film production, it has been widely used for visual effects, virtual zoom, image translation, image editing and video editing. With recent advancements in digital cameras, both professionals and consumers have become increasingly involved in matting techniques to facilitate image editing activities. Image matting plays an important role to estimate alpha matte in the unknown region to distinguish foreground from the background region of an image using an input image and the corresponding trimap of an image which represents a foreground and unknown region. Numerous image matting techniques have been proposed recently to extract high-quality matte from image and video sequences. This paper illustrates a systematic overview of the current image and video matting techniques mostly emphasis on the current and advanced algorithms proposed recently. In general, image matting techniques have been categorized according to their underlying approaches, namely, sampling-based, propagation-based, combination of sampling and propagation-based and deep learning-based algorithms. The traditional image matting algorithms depend primarily on color information to predict alpha matte such as sampling-based, propagation-based or combination of sampling and propagation-based algorithms. However, these techniques mostly use low-level features and suffer from high-level background which tends to produce unwanted artifacts when color is same or semi-transparent in the foreground object. Image matting techniques based on deep learning have recently introduced to address the shortcomings of traditional algorithms. Rather than simply depending on the color information, it uses deep learning mechanism to estimate the alpha matte using an input image and the trimap of an image. A comprehensive survey on recent image matting algorithms and in-depth comparative analysis of these algorithms has been thoroughly discussed in this paper.

Deep Feature Extraction

In this chapter, deep learning-based approaches, namely deep feature extraction, fine-tuning of pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNN), and end-to-end training of a developed CNN model, are used to classify the malignant and normal breast X-ray images. For deep feature extraction, pre-trained deep CNN models such as ResNet18, ResNet50, ResNet101, VGG16, and VGG19 are used. For classification of the deep features, the support vector machines (SVM) classifier is used with various kernel functions namely linear, quadratic, cubic, and Gaussian, respectively. The aforementioned pre-trained deep CNN models are also used in fine-tuning procedure. A new CNN model is also proposed in end-to-end training fashion. The classification accuracy is used as performance measurements. The experimental works show that the deep learning has potential in detection of the breast cancer from the X-ray images. The deep features that are extracted from the ResNet50 model and SVM classifier with linear kernel function produced 94.7% accuracy score which the highest among all obtained.
