The aerospace sector is one of the main economic drivers that strengthens our present, constitutes our future and is a source of competitiveness and innovation with great technological development capacity. In particular, the objective of manufacturers on assembly lines is to automate the entire process by using digital technologies as part of the transition toward Industry 4.0. In advanced manufacturing processes, artificial vision systems are interesting because their performance influences the liability and productivity of manufacturing processes. Therefore, developing and validating accurate, reliable and flexible vision systems in uncontrolled industrial environments is a critical issue. This research deals with the detection and classification of fasteners in a real, uncontrolled environment for an aeronautical manufacturing process, using machine learning techniques based on convolutional neural networks. Our system achieves 98.3% accuracy in a processing time of 0.8 ms per image. The results reveal that the machine learning paradigm based on a neural network in an industrial environment is capable of accurately and reliably estimating mechanical parameters to improve the performance and flexibility of advanced manufacturing processing of large parts with structural responsibility.

AbstractClassification of multispectral optical satellite data using machine learning techniques to derive land use/land cover thematic data is important for many applications. Comparing the latest algorithms, our research aims to determine the best option to classify land use/land cover with special focus on temporary inundated land in a flat area in the south of Hungary. These inundations disrupt agricultural practices and can cause large financial loss. Sentinel 2 data with a high temporal and medium spatial resolution is classified using open source implementations of a random forest, support vector machine and an artificial neural network. Each classification model is applied to the same data set and the results are compared qualitatively and quantitatively. The accuracy of the results is high for all methods and does not show large overall differences. A quantitative spatial comparison demonstrates that the neural network gives the best results, but that all models are strongly influenced by atmospheric disturbances in the image.

There are thousands of species of Mushrooms in the world; they are edible and non-edible being poisonous. It is difficult for non-expertise person to Identify poisonous and edible mushroom of all the species manually. So a computer aided system with software or algorithm is required to classify poisonous and nonpoisonous mushrooms. In this paper a literature review is presented on classification of poisonous and nonpoisonous mushrooms. Most of the research works to classify the type of mushroom have applied, machine learning techniques like Naïve Bayes, K-Neural Network, Support vector Machine(SVM), Artificial Neural Network(ANN), Decision Tree techniques. In this literature review, a summary and comparisons of all different techniques of mushroom classification in terms of its performance parameters, merits and demerits faced during the classification of mushrooms using machine learning techniques.


White blood cell (Leukocytes) is made up of bone marrow located in the blood and lymph tissue. They are portion of the human body’s immune system, thereby helping the body system to fight against infection and other related diseases. The number of leukocytes in the blood is usually part of a complete blood cell (CBC) test, which may be used to check for conditions such as infection, inflammation, allergies, and leukemia. Automation of variance count of leukocytes offers valuable information to medical pathologist to diagnose and treat of many blood based diseases. Early characterization and classification of blood sample is a major lacuna in the medical field, giving rise to lots of challenges for pathologist to adequately predict blood based disease. Several successful efforts have been made to address the aforementioned challenges with the use of machine learning generally and Convolution Neural Network in particular. However the processor configuration which can result in real time, and accurate classification of the high dimensional pattern is imminent, and a vast number of researchers are not explicit on the system configuration used to obtain the result in their report, which is the crux of this research. In this research,12,500 augment images of blood cells was obtained from the Kaggle Repository online. The leukocytes are contained in the blood smear image and categorized into five major types of their types: Neutrophil, Eosinophil, Basophil, Lymphocyte and Monocyte. The color, geometric and texture features are used by the pathologists to differentiate the leukocytes. The Simulation was done using python programing language and python libraries including Keras, pandas, sklearn, numpy, scipy and matplot for potting of graphs of results. The simulation was done on both CPU and GPU processor to compare the performance of the processors on CNNs based classification of the data. While CPU has faster clock speed GPU has more cores. Hence the evaluation metrics used which are precision, specificity, sensitivity, training accuracy and validation accuracy revealed that GPU processor outperforms CPU in terms of the stated metrics of comparison. Therefore a high configuration processor (GPU), which handles graphics better is recommended for processing image data that involves the use of machine learning techniques

Various techniques have been developed to detect railway defects. One of the popular techniques is machine learning. This unprecedented study applies deep learning, which is a branch of machine learning techniques, to detect and evaluate the severity of rail combined defects. The combined defects in the study are settlement and dipped joint. Features used to detect and evaluate the severity of combined defects are axle box accelerations simulated using a verified rolling stock dynamic behavior simulation called D-Track. A total of 1650 simulations are run to generate numerical data. Deep learning techniques used in the study are deep neural network (DNN), convolutional neural network (CNN), and recurrent neural network (RNN). Simulated data are used in two ways: simplified data and raw data. Simplified data are used to develop the DNN model, while raw data are used to develop the CNN and RNN model. For simplified data, features are extracted from raw data, which are the weight of rolling stock, the speed of rolling stock, and three peak and bottom accelerations from two wheels of rolling stock. In total, there are 14 features used as simplified data for developing the DNN model. For raw data, time-domain accelerations are used directly to develop the CNN and RNN models without processing and data extraction. Hyperparameter tuning is performed to ensure that the performance of each model is optimized. Grid search is used for performing hyperparameter tuning. To detect the combined defects, the study proposes two approaches. The first approach uses one model to detect settlement and dipped joint, and the second approach uses two models to detect settlement and dipped joint separately. The results show that the CNN models of both approaches provide the same accuracy of 99%, so one model is good enough to detect settlement and dipped joint. To evaluate the severity of the combined defects, the study applies classification and regression concepts. Classification is used to evaluate the severity by categorizing defects into light, medium, and severe classes, and regression is used to estimate the size of defects. From the study, the CNN model is suitable for evaluating dipped joint severity with an accuracy of 84% and mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.25 mm, and the RNN model is suitable for evaluating settlement severity with an accuracy of 99% and mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.58 mm.
