Aircraft type recognition plays an important role in remote sensing image interpretation. Traditional methods suffer from bad generalization performance, while deep learning methods require large amounts of data with type labels, which are quite expensive and time-consuming to obtain. To overcome the aforementioned problems, in this paper, we propose an aircraft type recognition framework based on conditional generative adversarial networks (GANs). First, we design a new method to precisely detect aircrafts’ keypoints, which are used to generate aircraft masks and locate the positions of the aircrafts. Second, a conditional GAN with a region of interest (ROI)-weighted loss function is trained on unlabeled aircraft images and their corresponding masks. Third, an ROI feature extraction method is carefully designed to extract multi-scale features from the GAN in the regions of aircrafts. After that, a linear support vector machine (SVM) classifier is adopted to classify each sample using their features. Benefiting from the GAN, we can learn features which are strong enough to represent aircrafts based on a large unlabeled dataset. Additionally, the ROI-weighted loss function and the ROI feature extraction method make the features more related to the aircrafts rather than the background, which improves the quality of features and increases the recognition accuracy significantly. Thorough experiments were conducted on a challenging dataset, and the results prove the effectiveness of the proposed aircraft type recognition framework.

This paper proposes a new feature extraction method for off-line recognition of Myanmar printed documents. One of the most important factors to achieve high recognition performance in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system is the selection of the feature extraction methods. Different types of existing OCR systems used various feature extraction methods because of the diversity of the scripts’ natures. One major contribution of the work in this paper is the design of logically rigorous coding based features. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, this paper assumed the documents are successfully segmented into characters and extracted features from these isolated Myanmar characters. These features are extracted using structural analysis of the Myanmar scripts. The experimental results have been carried out using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier and compare the pervious proposed feature extraction method.

The field of biometrics has evolved tremendously for over the last century. Yet scientists are still continuing to come up with precise and efficient algorithms to facilitate automatic fingerprint recognition systems. Like other applications, an efficient feature extraction method plays an important role in fingerprint based recognition systems. This paper proposes a novel feature extraction method using minutiae points of a fingerprint image and their intersections. In this method, initially, it calculates the ridge ends and ridge bifurcations of each fingerprint image. And then, it estimates the minutiae points for the intersection of each ridge end and ridge bifurcation. In the experimental evaluation, we tested the extracted features of our proposed model using a support vector machine (SVM) classifier and experimental results show that the proposed method can accurately classify different fingerprint images.

The identification of drug-target interactions (DTIs) plays a crucial role in drug discovery. However, the traditional high-throughput techniques based on clinical trials are costly, cumbersome, and time-consuming for identifying DTIs. Hence, new intelligent computational methods are urgently needed to surmount these defects in predicting DTIs. In this paper, we propose a novel computational method that combines position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM), elastic net based sparse features extraction, and rotation forest (RF) classifier. Specifically, we converted each protein primary sequence into PSSM, which contains biological evolutionary information. Then we extract the hidden sparse feature descriptors in PSSM by elastic net based sparse feature extraction method (ESFE). After that, we fuse them with the features of drug, which are represented by molecular fingerprints. Finally, rotation forest classifier works on detecting the potential drug-target interactions. When performing the proposed method by the experiments of fivefold cross validation (CV) on enzyme, ion channel, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and nuclear receptor datasets, this method achieves average accuracies of 90.32%, 88.91%, 80.65%, and 79.73%, respectively. We also compared the proposed model with the state-of-the-art support vector machine (SVM) classifier and other effective methods on the same datasets. The comparison results distinctly indicate that the proposed model possesses the efficient and robust ability to predict DTIs. We expect that the new model will be able to take effects on predicting massive DTIs.

Brain tumors Analysis is problematic somewhat due to varied size, shape, location of tumor and the appearance and presence of brain tumor. Clinicians and radiologist have difficulty in identifying the tumor type. An efficient hybrid feature extraction method to classify the type of tumor accurately as meningioma, gliomas and pituitary tumor using SVM (support vector machine) classifier is proposed. The modified Non-Local Means (NLM) filter may be effectively used to get the pure image. The NLM filter is compared with common filters like median and wiener. From the denoised image the classification is done by training SVM using the texture features from the hybrid and efficient feature extraction technique.The accuracy of the classification is calculated and the SVM classifier training individual type of texture features and also with combined texture features and the performance is analyzed.

Hot strip tail flick is an abnormal production phenomenon, which brings many damages. To recognize the tail flick signals from all throwing steel strip signals, a feature extraction method based on morphological pattern spectrum is proposed in this paper. The area between signal curves after multiscale opening operation and the horizontal axis is computed as the pattern spectrum value and it reflects the geometric information differences. Then, support vector machine is used as the classifier. Experimental results show that the total correct rate based on pattern spectrum feature reached 96.5%. Compared with wavelet packet energy feature, the total correct rate is 92.1%. So, the feasibility and availability of this new feature extraction method are verified.

To evaluate the discrimination capacity, some experiments were achieved using three gases: ozone, ethanol, acetone and a mixture of ozone and ethanol via four WO3 sensors. Design/methodology/approach To improve the classification accuracy and enhance selectivity, some combined features that were configured through the principal component analysis were used. First, evaluate the discrimination capacity; some experiments were performed using three gases: ozone, ethanol, acetone and a mixture of ozone and ethanol, via four WO3 sensors. To this end, three features that are derivate, integral and the time corresponding to the peak derivate have been extracted from each transient sensor response according to four WO3 gas sensors used. Then these extracted parameters were used in a combined array. Findings The results show that the proposed feature extraction method could extract robust information. The Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) was used to identify the studied gases. In addition, ELM was compared with the Support Vector Machine (SVM). The experimental results prove the superiority of the combined features method in our E-nose application, as this method achieves the highest classification rate of 90% using the ELM and 93.03% using the SVM based on Radial Basis Kernel Function SVM-RBF.
