Crop monitoring is highly important in terms of the efficient and stable performance of tasks such as planting, spraying, and harvesting, and for this reason, several studies are being conducted to develop and improve crop monitoring robots. In addition, the applications of deep learning algorithms are increasing in the development of agricultural robots since deep learning algorithms that use convolutional neural networks have been proven to show outstanding performance in image classification, segmentation, and object detection. However, most of these applications are focused on the development of harvesting robots, and thus, there are only a few studies that improve and develop monitoring robots through the use of deep learning. For this reason, we aimed to develop a real-time robot monitoring system for the generative growth of tomatoes. The presented method detects tomato fruits grown in hydroponic greenhouses using the Faster R-CNN (region-based convolutional neural network). In addition, we sought to select a color model that was robust to external light, and we used hue values to develop an image-based maturity standard for tomato fruits; furthermore, the developed maturity standard was verified through comparison with expert classification. Finally, the number of tomatoes was counted using a centroid-based tracking algorithm. We trained the detection model using an open dataset and tested the whole system in real-time in a hydroponic greenhouse. A total of 53 tomato fruits were used to verify the developed system, and the developed system achieved 88.6% detection accuracy when completely obscured fruits not captured by the camera were included. When excluding obscured fruits, the system’s accuracy was 90.2%. For the maturity classification, we conducted qualitative evaluations with the assistance of experts.

Network Intrusion

The Controller Area Network (CAN) bus works as an important protocol in the real-time In-Vehicle Network (IVN) systems for its simple, suitable, and robust architecture. The risk of IVN devices has still been insecure and vulnerable due to the complex data-intensive architectures which greatly increase the accessibility to unauthorized networks and the possibility of various types of cyberattacks. Therefore, the detection of cyberattacks in IVN devices has become a growing interest. With the rapid development of IVNs and evolving threat types, the traditional machine learning-based IDS has to update to cope with the security requirements of the current environment. Nowadays, the progression of deep learning, deep transfer learning, and its impactful outcome in several areas has guided as an effective solution for network intrusion detection. This manuscript proposes a deep transfer learning-based IDS model for IVN along with improved performance in comparison to several other existing models. The unique contributions include effective attribute selection which is best suited to identify malicious CAN messages and accurately detect the normal and abnormal activities, designing a deep transfer learning-based LeNet model, and evaluating considering real-world data. To this end, an extensive experimental performance evaluation has been conducted. The architecture along with empirical analyses shows that the proposed IDS greatly improves the detection accuracy over the mainstream machine learning, deep learning, and benchmark deep transfer learning models and has demonstrated better performance for real-time IVN security.

There are several malware detection techniques available that are based on a signature-based approach. This approach can detect known malware very effectively but sometimes may fail to detect unknown or zero-day attacks. In this article, the authors have proposed a malware detection model that uses operation codes of malicious and benign executables as the feature. The proposed model uses opcode extract and count (OPEC) algorithm to prepare the opcode feature vector for the experiment. Most relevant features are selected using extra tree classifier feature selection technique and then passed through several supervised learning algorithms like support vector machine, naive bayes, decision tree, random forest, logistic regression, and k-nearest neighbour to build classification models for malware detection. The proposed model has achieved a detection accuracy of 98.7%, which makes this model better than many of the similar works discussed in the literature.

Due to the limitation of energy consumption and power consumption, the embedded platform cannot meet the real-time requirements of the far-infrared image pedestrian detection algorithm. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new real-time infrared pedestrian detection algorithm (RepVGG-YOLOv4, Rep-YOLO), which uses RepVGG to reconstruct the YOLOv4 backbone network, reduces the amount of model parameters and calculations, and improves the speed of target detection; using space spatial pyramid pooling (SPP) obtains different receptive field information to improve the accuracy of model detection; using the channel pruning compression method reduces redundant parameters, model size, and computational complexity. The experimental results show that compared with the YOLOv4 target detection algorithm, the Rep-YOLO algorithm reduces the model volume by 90%, the floating-point calculation is reduced by 93.4%, the reasoning speed is increased by 4 times, and the model detection accuracy after compression reaches 93.25%.

Abstract. Automatic building change detection has become a topical issue owing to its wide range of applications, such as updating building maps. However, accurate building change detection remains challenging, particularly in urban areas. Thus far, there has been limited research on the use of the outdated building map (the building map before the update, referred to herein as the old-map) to increase the accuracy of building change detection. This paper presents a novel deep-learning-based method for building change detection using bitemporal aerial images containing RGB bands, bitemporal digital surface models (DSMs), and an old-map. The aerial images have two types of spatial resolutions, 12.5 cm or 16 cm, and the cell size of the DSMs is 50 cm × 50 cm. The bitemporal aerial images, the height variations calculated using the differences between the bitemporal DSMs, and the old-map were fed into a network architecture to build an automatic building change detection model. The performance of the model was quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated for an urban area that covered approximately 10 km2 and contained over 21,000 buildings. The results indicate that it can detect the building changes with optimum accuracy as compared to other methods that use inputs such as i) bitemporal aerial images only, ii) bitemporal aerial images and bitemporal DSMs, and iii) bitemporal aerial images and an old-map. The proposed method achieved recall rates of 89.3%, 88.8%, and 99.5% for new, demolished, and other buildings, respectively. The results also demonstrate that the old-map is an effective data source for increasing building change detection accuracy.

Smart Surveillance

The crime rates today can inevitably put a civilian's life in danger. While consistent efforts are being made to alleviate crime, there is also a dire need to create a smart and proactive surveillance system. Our project implements a smart surveillance system that would alert the authorities in real-time when a crime is being committed. During armed robberies and hostage situations, most often, the police cannot reach the place on time to prevent it from happening, owing to the lag in communication between the informants of the crime scene and the police. We propose an object detection model that implements deep learning algorithms to detect objects of violence such as pistols, knives, rifles from video surveillance footage, and in turn send real-time alerts to the authorities. There are a number of object detection algorithms being developed, each being evaluated under the performance metric mAP. On implementing Faster R-CNN with ResNet 101 architecture we found the mAP score to be about 91%. However, the downside to this is the excessive training and inferencing time it incurs. On the other hand, YOLOv5 architecture resulted in a model that performed very well in terms of speed. Its training speed was found to be 0.012 s / image during training but naturally, the accuracy was not as high as Faster R-CNN. With good computer architecture, it can run at about 40 fps. Thus, there is a tradeoff between speed and accuracy and it's important to strike a balance. We use transfer learning to improve accuracy by training the model on our custom dataset. This project can be deployed on any generic CCTV camera by setting up a live RTSP (real-time streaming protocol) and streaming the footage on a laptop or desktop where the deep learning model is being run.

Several pedestrian navigation solutions have been proposed to date, and most of them are based on smartphones. Real-time recognition of pedestrian mode and smartphone posture is a key issue in navigation. Traditional ML (Machine Learning) classification methods have drawbacks, such as insufficient recognition accuracy and poor timing. This paper presents a real-time recognition scheme for comprehensive human activities, and this scheme combines deep learning algorithms and MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) sensors’ measurements. In this study, we performed four main experiments, namely pedestrian motion mode recognition, smartphone posture recognition, real-time comprehensive pedestrian activity recognition, and pedestrian navigation. In the procedure of recognition, we designed and trained deep learning models using LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) and CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) networks based on Tensorflow framework. The accuracy of traditional ML classification methods was also used for comparison. Test results show that the accuracy of motion mode recognition was improved from 89.9 % , which was the highest accuracy and obtained by SVM (Support Vector Machine), to 90.74 % (LSTM) and 91.92 % (CNN); the accuracy of smartphone posture recognition was improved from 81.60 % , which is the highest accuracy and obtained by NN (Neural Network), to 93.69 % (LSTM) and 95.55 % (CNN). We give a model transformation procedure based on the trained CNN network model, and then obtain the converted . t f l i t e model, which can be run in Android devices for real-time recognition. Real-time recognition experiments were performed in multiple scenes, a recognition model trained by the CNN network was deployed in a Huawei Mate20 smartphone, and the five most used pedestrian activities were designed and verified. The overall accuracy was up to 89.39 % . Overall, the improvement of recognition capability based on deep learning algorithms was significant. Therefore, the solution was helpful to recognize comprehensive pedestrian activities during navigation. On the basis of the trained model, a navigation test was performed; mean bias was reduced by more than 1.1 m. Accordingly, the positioning accuracy was improved obviously, which is meaningful to apply DL in the area of pedestrian navigation to make improvements.

Computer-based technologies play a central role in the dentistry field, as they present many methods for diagnosing and detecting various diseases, such as periodontitis. The current study aimed to develop and evaluate the state-of-the-art object detection and recognition techniques and deep learning algorithms for the automatic detection of periodontal disease in orthodontic patients using intraoral images. In this study, a total of 134 intraoral images were divided into a training dataset (n = 107 [80%]) and a test dataset (n = 27 [20%]). Two Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (R-CNN) models using ResNet-50 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) were developed. The first model detects the teeth to locate the region of interest (ROI), while the second model detects gingival inflammation. The detection accuracy, precision, recall, and mean average precision (mAP) were calculated to verify the significance of the proposed model. The teeth detection model achieved an accuracy, precision, recall, and mAP of 100 %, 100%, 51.85%, and 100%, respectively. The inflammation detection model achieved an accuracy, precision, recall, and mAP of 77.12%, 88.02%, 41.75%, and 68.19%, respectively. This study proved the viability of deep learning models for the detection and diagnosis of gingivitis in intraoral images. Hence, this highlights its potential usability in the field of dentistry and aiding in reducing the severity of periodontal disease globally through preemptive non-invasive diagnosis.

Vehicle detection is essential for driverless systems. However, the current single sensor detection mode is no longer sufficient in complex and changing traffic environments. Therefore, this paper combines camera and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) to build a vehicle-detection framework that has the characteristics of multi adaptability, high real-time capacity, and robustness. First, a multi-adaptive high-precision depth-completion method was proposed to convert the 2D LiDAR sparse depth map into a dense depth map, so that the two sensors are aligned with each other at the data level. Then, the You Only Look Once Version 3 (YOLOv3) real-time object detection model was used to detect the color image and the dense depth map. Finally, a decision-level fusion method based on bounding box fusion and improved Dempster–Shafer (D–S) evidence theory was proposed to merge the two results of the previous step and obtain the final vehicle position and distance information, which not only improves the detection accuracy but also improves the robustness of the whole framework. We evaluated our method using the KITTI dataset and the Waymo Open Dataset, and the results show the effectiveness of the proposed depth completion method and multi-sensor fusion strategy.
