Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images have been used in many studies for ship detection because they can be captured without being affected by time and weather. In recent years, the development of deep learning techniques has facilitated studies on ship detection in SAR images using deep learning techniques. However, because the noise from SAR images can negatively affect the learning of the deep learning model, it is necessary to reduce the noise through preprocessing. In this study, deep learning vessel detection was performed using preprocessed SAR images, and the effects of the preprocessing of the images on deep learning vessel detection were compared and analyzed. Through the preprocessing of SAR images, (1) intensity images, (2) decibel images, and (3) intensity difference and texture images were generated. The M2Det object detection model was used for the deep learning process and preprocessed SAR images. After the object detection model was trained, ship detection was performed using test images. The test results are presented in terms of precision, recall, and average precision (AP), which were 93.18%, 91.11%, and 89.78% for the intensity images, respectively, 94.16%, 94.16%, and 92.34% for the decibel images, respectively, and 97.40%, 94.94%, and 95.55% for the intensity difference and texture images, respectively. From the results, it can be found that the preprocessing of the SAR images can facilitate the deep learning process and improve the ship detection performance. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of deep learning-based ship detection techniques in SAR images in the future.

Over the last few decades, reliability analysis has gained more and more attention as it can be beneficial in lowering the maintenance cost. Time between failures (TBF) is an essential topic in reliability analysis. If the TBF can be accurately predicted, preventive maintenance can be scheduled in advance in order to avoid critical failures. The purpose of this paper is to research the TBF using deep learning techniques. Deep learning, as a tool capable of capturing the highly complex and nonlinearly patterns, can be a useful tool for TBF prediction. The general principle of how to design deep learning model was introduced. By using a sizeable amount of automobile TBF dataset, we conduct an experiential study on TBF prediction by deep learning and several data mining approaches. The empirical results show the merits of deep learning in performance but comes with cost of high computational load.

Spam posts in web forum discussions cause user inconvenience and lower the value of the web forum as an open source of user opinion. In this regard, as the importance of a web post is evaluated in terms of the number of involved authors, noise distorts the analysis results by adding unnecessary data to the opinion analysis. Here, in this work, an automatic detection model for spam posts in web forums using both conventional machine learning and deep learning is proposed. To automatically differentiate between normal posts and spam, evaluators were asked to recognize spam posts in advance. To construct the machine learning-based model, text features from posted content using text mining techniques from the perspective of linguistics were extracted, and supervised learning was performed to distinguish content noise from normal posts. For the deep learning model, raw text including and excluding special characters was utilized. A comparison analysis on deep neural networks using the two different recurrent neural network (RNN) models of the simple RNN and long short-term memory (LSTM) network was also performed. Furthermore, the proposed model was applied to two web forums. The experimental results indicate that the deep learning model affords significant improvements over the accuracy of conventional machine learning associated with text features. The accuracy of the proposed model using LSTM reaches 98.56%, and the precision and recall of the noise class reach 99% and 99.53%, respectively.

Tomato Detection

Automatic detection of intact tomatoes on plants is highly expected for low-cost and optimal management in tomato farming. Mature tomato detection has been wildly studied, while immature tomato detection, especially when occluded with leaves, is difficult to perform using traditional image analysis, which is more important for long-term yield prediction. Therefore, tomato detection that can generalize well in real tomato cultivation scenes and is robust to issues such as fruit occlusion and variable lighting conditions is highly desired. In this study, we build a tomato detection model to automatically detect intact green tomatoes regardless of occlusions or fruit growth stage using deep learning approaches. The tomato detection model used faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN) with Resnet-101 and transfer learned from the Common Objects in Context (COCO) dataset. The detection on test dataset achieved high average precision of 87.83% (intersection over union ≥ 0.5) and showed a high accuracy of tomato counting (R2 = 0.87). In addition, all the detected boxes were merged into one image to compile the tomato location map and estimate their size along one row in the greenhouse. By tomato detection, counting, location and size estimation, this method shows great potential for ripeness and yield prediction.

Deep Learning Model

The prediction of cyberattacks has been a major concern in cybersecurity. This is due to the huge financial and resource losses incurred by organisations after a cyberattack. The emergence of new applications and disruptive technologies has come with new vulnerabilities, most of which are novel – with no immediate remediation available. Recent attacks signatures are becoming evasive, deploying very complex techniques and algorithms to infiltrate a network, leading to unauthorized access and modification of system parameters and classified data. Although there exists several approaches to mitigating attacks, challenges of using known attack signatures and modeled behavioural profiles of network environments still linger. Consequently, this paper discusses the use of unsupervised statistical and supervised deep learning techniques to predict attacks by mapping hyper-alerts to class labels of attacks. This enhances the processes of feature extraction and transformation, as a means of giving structured interpretation of the dynamic profiles of a network.Keywords: Alert correlation, Cyberattack prediction, Cybersecurity, Deep learning, Cyberattacks, Supervised and Unsupervised LearningVol. 26 No 1, June 2019
