As a prerequisite for autonomous driving, scene understanding has attracted extensive research. With the rise of the convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning technique, research on scene understanding has achieved significant progress. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive survey of deep learning-based approaches for scene understanding in autonomous driving. We categorize these works into four work streams, including object detection, full scene semantic segmentation, instance segmentation, and lane line segmentation. We discuss and analyze these works according to their characteristics, advantages and disadvantages, and basic frameworks. We also summarize the benchmark datasets and evaluation criteria used in the research community and make a performance comparison of some of the latest works. Lastly, we summarize the review work and provide a discussion on the future challenges of the research domain.

With the emergence of deep learning, computer vision has witnessed extensive advancement and has seen immense applications in multiple domains. Specifically, image captioning has become an attractive focal direction for most machine learning experts, which includes the prerequisite of object identification, location, and semantic understanding. In this paper, semantic segmentation and image captioning are comprehensively investigated based on traditional and state-of-the-art methodologies. In this survey, we deliberate on the use of deep learning techniques on the segmentation analysis of both 2D and 3D images using a fully convolutional network and other high-level hierarchical feature extraction methods. First, each domain’s preliminaries and concept are described, and then semantic segmentation is discussed alongside its relevant features, available datasets, and evaluation criteria. Also, the semantic information capturing of objects and their attributes is presented in relation to their annotation generation. Finally, analysis of the existing methods, their contributions, and relevance are highlighted, informing the importance of these methods and illuminating a possible research continuation for the application of semantic image segmentation and image captioning approaches.

AbstractIn recent years, the success of deep learning in natural scene image processing boosted its application in the analysis of remote sensing images. In this paper, we applied Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) on the semantic segmentation of remote sensing images. We improve the Encoder- Decoder CNN structure SegNet with index pooling and U-net to make them suitable for multi-targets semantic segmentation of remote sensing images. The results show that these two models have their own advantages and disadvantages on the segmentation of different objects. In addition, we propose an integrated algorithm that integrates these two models. Experimental results show that the presented integrated algorithm can exploite the advantages of both the models for multi-target segmentation and achieve a better segmentation compared to these two models.

The benefits of early detection and classification of epileptic seizures in analysis, monitoring and diagnosis for the realization and actualization of computer-aided devices and recent internet of medical things (IoMT) devices can never be overemphasized. The success of these applications largely depends on the accuracy of the detection and classification techniques employed. Several methods have been investigated, proposed and developed over the years. This paper investigates various seizure detection algorithms and classifications in the last decade, including conventional techniques and recent deep learning algorithms. It also discusses epileptiform detection as one of the steps towards advanced diagnoses of disorders of consciousness (DOCs) and their understanding. A performance comparison was carried out on the different algorithms investigated, and their advantages and disadvantages were explored. From our survey, much attention has recently been paid to exploring the efficacy of deep learning algorithms in seizure detection and classification, which are employed in other areas such as image processing and classification. Hybrid deep learning has also been explored, with CNN-RNN being the most popular.

The electroencephalogram (EEG) is the most promising and efficient technique to study epilepsy and record all the electrical activity going in our brain. Automated screening of epilepsy through data-driven algorithms reduces the manual workload of doctors to diagnose epilepsy. New algorithms are biased either towards signal processing or deep learning, which holds subjective advantages and disadvantages. The proposed pipeline is an end-to-end automated seizure prediction framework with a Fourier transform feature extraction and deep learning-based transformer model, a blend of signal processing and deep learning — this imbibes the potential features to automatically identify the attentive regions in EEG signals for effective screening. The proposed pipeline has demonstrated superior performance on the benchmark dataset with average sensitivity and false-positive rate per hour (FPR/h) as 98.46%, 94.83% and 0.12439, 0, respectively. The proposed work shows great results on the benchmark datasets and a big potential for clinics as a support system with medical experts monitoring the patients.

Benchmark datasets are essential for developing and evaluating remote sensing image retrieval (RSIR) approaches. However, most of the existing datasets are single-labeled, with each image in these datasets being annotated by a single label representing the most significant semantic content of the image. This is sufficient for simple problems, such as distinguishing between a building and a beach, but multiple labels and sometimes even dense (pixel) labels are required for more complex problems, such as RSIR and semantic segmentation.We therefore extended the existing multi-labeled dataset collected for multi-label RSIR and presented a dense labeling remote sensing dataset termed "DLRSD". DLRSD contained a total of 17 classes, and the pixels of each image were assigned with 17 pre-defined labels. We used DLRSD to evaluate the performance of RSIR methods ranging from traditional handcrafted feature-based methods to deep learning-based ones. More specifically, we evaluated the performances of RSIR methods from both single-label and multi-label perspectives. These results demonstrated the advantages of multiple labels over single labels for interpreting complex remote sensing images. DLRSD provided the literature a benchmark for RSIR and other pixel-based problems such as semantic segmentation.

Drug discovery based on artificial intelligence has been in the spotlight recently as it significantly reduces the time and cost required for developing novel drugs. With the advancement of deep learning (DL) technology and the growth of drug-related data, numerous deep-learning-based methodologies are emerging at all steps of drug development processes. In particular, pharmaceutical chemists have faced significant issues with regard to selecting and designing potential drugs for a target of interest to enter preclinical testing. The two major challenges are prediction of interactions between drugs and druggable targets and generation of novel molecular structures suitable for a target of interest. Therefore, we reviewed recent deep-learning applications in drug–target interaction (DTI) prediction and de novo drug design. In addition, we introduce a comprehensive summary of a variety of drug and protein representations, DL models, and commonly used benchmark datasets or tools for model training and testing. Finally, we present the remaining challenges for the promising future of DL-based DTI prediction and de novo drug design.

As the techniques of autonomous driving become increasingly valued and universal, real-time semantic segmentation has become very popular and challenging in the field of deep learning and computer vision in recent years. However, in order to apply the deep learning model to edge devices accompanying sensors on vehicles, we need to design a structure that has the best trade-off between accuracy and inference time. In previous works, several methods sacrificed accuracy to obtain a faster inference time, while others aimed to find the best accuracy under the condition of real time. Nevertheless, the accuracies of previous real-time semantic segmentation methods still have a large gap compared to general semantic segmentation methods. As a result, we propose a network architecture based on a dual encoder and a self-attention mechanism. Compared with preceding works, we achieved a 78.6% mIoU with a speed of 39.4 FPS with a 1024 × 2048 resolution on a Cityscapes test submission.

In computer vision, object detection is a very important, exciting and mind-blowing study. Object detection work in numerous fields such as observing security, independently/autonomous driving and etc. Deep-learning based object detection techniques have developed at a very fast pace and have attracted the attention of many researchers. The main focus of the 21st century is the development of the object-detection framework, comprehensively and genuinely. In this investigation, we initially investigate and evaluate the various object detection approaches and designate the benchmark datasets. We also delivered the wide-ranging general idea of object detection approaches in an organized way. We covered the first and second stage detectors of object detection methods. And lastly, we consider the construction of these object detection approaches to give dimensions for further research.
