Artificial intelligence technologies and robot vision systems are core technologies in smart factories. Currently, there is scholarly interest in automatic data feature extraction in smart factories using deep learning networks. However, sufficient training data are required to train these networks. In addition, barely perceptible noise can affect classification accuracy. Therefore, to increase the amount of training data and achieve robustness against noise attacks, a data augmentation method implemented using the adaptive inverse peak signal-to-noise ratio was developed in this study to consider the influence of the color characteristics of the training images. This method was used to automatically determine the optimal perturbation range of the color perturbation method for generating images using weights based on the characteristics of the training images. The experimental results showed that the proposed method could generate new training images from original images, classify noisy images with greater accuracy, and generally improve the classification accuracy. This demonstrates that the proposed method is effective and robust to noise, even when the training data are deficient.

Background Deep learning using convolutional neural networks (CNN) has achieved significant results in various fields that use images. Deep learning can automatically extract features from data, and CNN extracts image features by convolution processing. We assumed that increasing the image size using interpolation methods would result in an effective feature extraction. To investigate how interpolation methods change as the number of data increases, we examined and compared the effectiveness of data augmentation by inversion or rotation with image augmentation by interpolation when the image data for training were small. Further, we clarified whether image augmentation by interpolation was useful for CNN training. To examine the usefulness of interpolation methods in medical images, we used a Gender01 data set, which is a sex classification data set, on chest radiographs. For comparison of image enlargement using an interpolation method with data augmentation by inversion and rotation, we examined the results of two- and four-fold enlargement using a Bilinear method. Results The average classification accuracy improved by expanding the image size using the interpolation method. The biggest improvement was noted when the number of training data was 100, and the average classification accuracy of the training model with the original data was 0.563. However, upon increasing the image size by four times using the interpolation method, the average classification accuracy significantly improved to 0.715. Compared with the data augmentation by inversion and rotation, the model trained using the Bilinear method showed an improvement in the average classification accuracy by 0.095 with 100 training data and 0.015 with 50,000 training data. Comparisons of the average classification accuracy of the chest X-ray images showed a stable and high-average classification accuracy using the interpolation method. Conclusion Training the CNN by increasing the image size using the interpolation method is a useful method. In the future, we aim to conduct additional verifications using various medical images to further clarify the reason why image size is important.

Abstract SARS-CoV-2 or severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is considered to be the cause of Coronavirus (COVID-19) which is a viral disease. The rapid spread of COVID-19 is having a detrimental effect on the global economy and health. A chest X-ray of infected patients can be considered as a crucial step in the battle against COVID-19. On retrospections, it is found that abnormalities exist in chest X-rays of patients suggestive of COVID-19. This sparked the introduction of a variety of deep learning systems and studies which have shown that the accuracy of COVID-19 patient detection through the use of chest X-rays is strongly optimistic. Although there are certain shortcomings like deep learning networks like convolutional neural networks (CNNs) need a substantial amount of training data but the outbreak is recent, so it is large datasets of radiographic images of the COVID-19 infected patients are not available in such a short time. Here, in this research, we present a method to generate synthetic chest X-ray (CXR) images by developing a Deep Convolution Generative Adversarial Network-based model. In addition, we demonstrate that the synthetic images produced from DCGAN can be utilized to enhance the performance of CNN for COVID-19 detection. Classification using CNN alone yielded 85% accuracy. Although there are several models available, we chose MobileNet as it is a lightweight deep neural network, with fewer parameters and higher classification accuracy. Here we are using a deep neural network-based model to diagnose COVID-19 infected patients through radiological imaging of 5,859 Chest X-Ray images. We are using a Deep Convolutional Neural Network and a pre-trained model “DenseNet 121” for two new label classes (COVID-19 and Normal). To improve the classification accuracy, in our work we have further reduced the number of network parameters by introducing dense blocks that are proposed in DenseNets into MobileNet. By adding synthetic images produced by DCGAN, the accuracy increased to 97%. Our goal is to use this method to speed up COVID-19 detection and lead to more robust systems of radiology.

Mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) and serous cystic neoplasms (SCN) account for a large portion of solitary pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCN). In this study we implemented a convolutional neural network (CNN) model using ResNet50 to differentiate between MCN and SCN. The training data were collected retrospectively from 59 MCN and 49 SCN patients from two different hospitals. Data augmentation was used to enhance the size and quality of training datasets. Fine-tuning training approaches were utilized by adopting the pre-trained model from transfer learning while training selected layers. Testing of the network was conducted by varying the endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) image sizes and positions to evaluate the network performance for differentiation. The proposed network model achieved up to 82.75% accuracy and a 0.88 (95% CI: 0.817–0.930) area under curve (AUC) score. The performance of the implemented deep learning networks in decision-making using only EUS images is comparable to that of traditional manual decision-making using EUS images along with supporting clinical information. Gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) confirmed that the network model learned the features from the cyst region accurately. This study proves the feasibility of diagnosing MCN and SCN using a deep learning network model. Further improvement using more datasets is needed.

The cell cycle is an important process in cellular life. In recent years, some image processing methods have been developed to determine the cell cycle stages of individual cells. However, in most of these methods, cells have to be segmented, and their features need to be extracted. During feature extraction, some important information may be lost, resulting in lower classification accuracy. Thus, we used a deep learning method to retain all cell features. In order to solve the problems surrounding insufficient numbers of original images and the imbalanced distribution of original images, we used the Wasserstein generative adversarial network-gradient penalty (WGAN-GP) for data augmentation. At the same time, a residual network (ResNet) was used for image classification. ResNet is one of the most used deep learning classification networks. The classification accuracy of cell cycle images was achieved more effectively with our method, reaching 83.88%. Compared with an accuracy of 79.40% in previous experiments, our accuracy increased by 4.48%. Another dataset was used to verify the effect of our model and, compared with the accuracy from previous results, our accuracy increased by 12.52%. The results showed that our new cell cycle image classification system based on WGAN-GP and ResNet is useful for the classification of imbalanced images. Moreover, our method could potentially solve the low classification accuracy in biomedical images caused by insufficient numbers of original images and the imbalanced distribution of original images.

Gradient Descent Algorithm

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are being widely utilized for various missions: in both civilian and military sectors. Many of these missions demand UAVs to acquire artificial intelligence about the environments they are navigating in. This perception can be realized by training a computing machine to classify objects in the environment. One of the well known machine training approaches is supervised deep learning, which enables a machine to classify objects. However, supervised deep learning comes with huge sacrifice in terms of time and computational resources. Collecting big input data, pre-training processes, such as labeling training data, and the need for a high performance computer for training are some of the challenges that supervised deep learning poses. To address these setbacks, this study proposes mission specific input data augmentation techniques and the design of light-weight deep neural network architecture that is capable of real-time object classification. Semi-direct visual odometry (SVO) data of augmented images are used to train the network for object classification. Ten classes of 10,000 different images in each class were used as input data where 80% were for training the network and the remaining 20% were used for network validation. For the optimization of the designed deep neural network, a sequential gradient descent algorithm was implemented. This algorithm has the advantage of handling redundancy in the data more efficiently than other algorithms.

Effective productivity estimates of fresh produced crops are very essential for efficient farming, commercial planning, and logistical support. In the past ten years, machine learning (ML) algorithms have been widely used for grading and classification of agricultural products in agriculture sector. However, the precise and accurate assessment of the maturity level of tomatoes using ML algorithms is still a quite challenging to achieve due to these algorithms being reliant on hand crafted features. Hence, in this paper we propose a deep learning based tomato maturity grading system that helps to increase the accuracy and adaptability of maturity grading tasks with less amount of training data. The performance of proposed system is assessed on the real tomato datasets collected from the open fields using Nikon D3500 CCD camera. The proposed approach achieved an average maturity classification accuracy of 99.8 % which seems to be quite promising in comparison to the other state of art methods.

Deep Learning Model

To unlock information present in clinical description, automatic medical text classification is highly useful in the arena of natural language processing (NLP). For medical text classification tasks, machine learning techniques seem to be quite effective; however, it requires extensive effort from human side, so that the labeled training data can be created. For clinical and translational research, a huge quantity of detailed patient information, such as disease status, lab tests, medication history, side effects, and treatment outcomes, has been collected in an electronic format, and it serves as a valuable data source for further analysis. Therefore, a huge quantity of detailed patient information is present in the medical text, and it is quite a huge challenge to process it efficiently. In this work, a medical text classification paradigm, using two novel deep learning architectures, is proposed to mitigate the human efforts. The first approach is that a quad channel hybrid long short-term memory (QC-LSTM) deep learning model is implemented utilizing four channels, and the second approach is that a hybrid bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU) deep learning model with multihead attention is developed and implemented successfully. The proposed methodology is validated on two medical text datasets, and a comprehensive analysis is conducted. The best results in terms of classification accuracy of 96.72% is obtained with the proposed QC-LSTM deep learning model, and a classification accuracy of 95.76% is obtained with the proposed hybrid BiGRU deep learning model.

Myocardial infarction (MI) may precipitate severe health damage and lead to irreversible death of the heart muscle, the result of prolonged lack of oxygen if it is not treated in a timely manner. Lack of accurate and early detection techniques for this heart disease has reduced the efficiency of MI diagnosis. In this paper, the design, and implementation of an efficient deep learning algorithm called Adaptive Recurrent neural network (ARNN) is proposed for the MI detection. The main objective of the proposed work is the accurate identification of MI disease using ECG signals. ECG signal denoising has been performed using the Multi-Notch filter, which removes the specified noise frequency range. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is utilized for performing the feature extraction that decomposes the ECG signal into varied scales with waveletfiltering bank. After the extraction of specific QRS features, classification of the defected and normal ECG arrhythmic beat has been performed using the deep learning-based ARNN classifier. The MIT-BIH database has been used for testing and training data. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated based on classification accuracy. Results that are attained include the classification accuracy of about 99.21%, 99% of sensitivity and 99.4% of specificity with PPV and NPV of about 99.4 and 99.01 values indicate the enhanced performance of our proposed work compared with the conventional LSTM-CAE and LSTM-CNN techniques.

Silicon wafer defect data collected from fabrication facilities is intrinsically imbalanced because of the variable frequencies of defect types. Frequently occurring types will have more influence on the classification predictions if a model gets trained on such skewed data. A fair classifier for such imbalanced data requires a mechanism to deal with type imbalance in order to avoid biased results. This study has proposed a convolutional neural network for wafer map defect classification, employing oversampling as an imbalance addressing technique. To have an equal participation of all classes in the classifier’s training, data augmentation has been employed, generating more samples in minor classes. The proposed deep learning method has been evaluated on a real wafer map defect dataset and its classification results on the test set returned a 97.91% accuracy. The results were compared with another deep learning based auto-encoder model demonstrating the proposed method, a potential approach for silicon wafer defect classification that needs to be investigated further for its robustness.

Scene Classification

Scene classification is an important aspect of image/video understanding and segmentation. However, remote-sensing scene classification is a challenging image recognition task, partly due to the limited training data, which causes deep-learning Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to overfit. Another difficulty is that images often have very different scales and orientation (viewing angle). Yet another is that the resulting networks may be very large, again making them prone to overfitting and unsuitable for deployment on memory- and energy-limited devices. We propose an efficient deep-learning approach to tackle these problems. We use transfer learning to compensate for the lack of data, and data augmentation to tackle varying scale and orientation. To reduce network size, we use a novel unsupervised learning approach based on k-means clustering, applied to all parts of the network: most network reduction methods use computationally expensive supervised learning methods, and apply only to the convolutional or fully connected layers, but not both. In experiments, we set new standards in classification accuracy on four remote-sensing and two scene-recognition image datasets.
