General Method

Automatic extraction of ground objects is fundamental for many applications of remote sensing. It is valuable to extract different kinds of ground objects effectively by using a general method. We propose such a method, JointNet, which is a novel neural network to meet extraction requirements for both roads and buildings. The proposed method makes three contributions to road and building extraction: (1) in addition to the accurate extraction of small objects, it can extract large objects with a wide receptive field. By switching the loss function, the network can effectively extract multi-type ground objects, from road centerlines to large-scale buildings. (2) This network module combines the dense connectivity with the atrous convolution layers, maintaining the efficiency of the dense connection connectivity pattern and reaching a large receptive field. (3) The proposed method utilizes the focal loss function to improve road extraction. The proposed method is designed to be effective on both road and building extraction tasks. Experimental results on three datasets verified the effectiveness of JointNet in information extraction of road and building objects.

Interaction Extraction

Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) may bring huge health risks and dangerous effects to a patient’s body when taking two or more drugs at the same time or within a certain period of time. Therefore, the automatic extraction of unknown DDIs has great potential for the development of pharmaceutical agents and the safety of drug use. In this article, we propose a novel recurrent hybrid convolutional neural network (RHCNN) for DDI extraction from biomedical literature. In the embedding layer, the texts mentioning two entities are represented as a sequence of semantic embeddings and position embeddings. In particular, the complete semantic embedding is obtained by the information fusion between a word embedding and its contextual information which is learnt by recurrent structure. After that, the hybrid convolutional neural network is employed to learn the sentence-level features which consist of the local context features from consecutive words and the dependency features between separated words for DDI extraction. Lastly but most significantly, in order to make up for the defects of the traditional cross-entropy loss function when dealing with class imbalanced data, we apply an improved focal loss function to mitigate against this problem when using the DDIExtraction 2013 dataset. In our experiments, we achieve DDI automatic extraction with a micro F-score of 75.48% on the DDIExtraction 2013 dataset, outperforming the state-of-the-art approach by 2.49%.

Detection Speed

The collapse of buildings caused by the earthquake seriously threatened human lives and safety. So, the quick detection of collapsed buildings from post-earthquake images is essential for disaster relief and disaster damage assessment. Compared with the traditional building extraction methods, the methods based on convolutional neural networks perform better because it can automatically extract high-dimensional abstract features from images. However, there are still many problems with deep learning in the extraction of collapsed buildings. For example, due to the complex scenes after the earthquake, the collapsed buildings are easily confused with the background, so it is difficult to fully use the multiple features extracted by collapsed buildings, which leads to time consumption and low accuracy of collapsed buildings extraction when training the model. In addition, model training is prone to overfitting, which reduces the performance of model migration. This paper proposes to use the improved classic version of the you only look once model (YOLOv4) to detect collapsed buildings from the post-earthquake aerial images. Specifically, the k-means algorithm is used to optimally select the number and size of anchors from the image. We replace the Resblock in CSPDarkNet53 in YOLOv4 with the ResNext block to improve the backbone’s ability and the performance of classification. Furthermore, to replace the loss function of YOLOv4 with the Focal-EOIU loss function. The result shows that compared with the original YOLOv4 model, our proposed method can extract collapsed buildings more accurately. The AP (average precision) increased from 88.23% to 93.76%. The detection speed reached 32.7 f/s. Our method not only improves the accuracy but also enhances the detection speed of the collapsed buildings. Moreover, providing a basis for the detection of large-scale collapsed buildings in the future.

Under the influence of COVID-19, the economic benefits of shale gas development are greatly affected. With the large-scale development and utilization of shale gas in China, it is increasingly important to assess the economic impact of shale gas development. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for predicting the production of shale gas reservoirs, and uses back propagation (BP) neural network to nonlinearly fit reservoir reconstruction data to obtain shale gas well production forecasting models. Experiments show that compared with the traditional BP neural network, the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy and stability of the prediction. There is a nonlinear correlation between reservoir reconstruction data and gas well production, which does not apply to traditional linear prediction methods

Blind Image

Image deconvolution has been an important issue recently. It has two kinds of approaches: non-blind and blind. Non-blind deconvolution is a classic problem of image deblurring, which assumes that the PSF is known and does not change universally in space. Recently, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been used for non-blind deconvolution. Though CNNs can deal with complex changes for unknown images, some CNN-based conventional methods can only handle small PSFs and does not consider the use of large PSFs in the real world. In this paper we propose a non-blind deconvolution framework based on a CNN that can remove large scale ringing in a deblurred image. Our method has three key points. The first is that our network architecture is able to preserve both large and small features in the image. The second is that the training dataset is created to preserve the details. The third is that we extend the images to minimize the effects of large ringing on the image borders. In our experiments, we used three kinds of large PSFs and were able to observe high-precision results from our method both quantitatively and qualitatively.

<div>Tailoring the structure and chemistry of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) enables the manipulation of their adsorption properties to suit specific energy and environmental applications. As there are millions of possible MOFs (with tens of thousands already synthesized), molecular simulation, such as grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC), has frequently been used to rapidly evaluate the adsorption performance of a large set of MOFs. This allows subsequent experiments to focus only on a small subset of the most promising MOFs. In many instances, however, even molecular simulation becomes prohibitively time consuming, underscoring the need for alternative screening methods, such as machine learning, to precede molecular simulation efforts. In this study, as a proof of concept, we trained a neural network as the first example of a machine learning model capable of predicting full adsorption isotherms of different molecules not included in the training of the model. To achieve this, we trained our neural network only on alchemical species, represented only by their geometry and force field parameters, and used this neural network to predict the loadings of real adsorbates. We focused on predicting room temperature adsorption of small (one- and two-atom) molecules relevant to chemical separations. Namely, argon, krypton, xenon, methane, ethane, and nitrogen. However, we also observed surprisingly promising predictions for more complex molecules, whose properties are outside the range spanned by the alchemical adsorbates. Prediction accuracies suitable for large-scale screening were achieved using simple MOF (e.g. geometric properties and chemical moieties), and adsorbate (e.g. forcefield parameters and geometry) descriptors. Our results illustrate a new philosophy of training that opens the path towards development of machine learning models that can predict the adsorption loading of any new adsorbate at any new operating conditions in any new MOF.</div>

Landslide recognition is widely used in natural disaster risk management. Traditional landslide recognition is mainly conducted by geologists, which is accurate but inefficient. This article introduces multiple instance learning (MIL) to perform automatic landslide recognition. An end-to-end deep convolutional neural network is proposed, referred to as Multiple Instance Learning–based Landslide classification (MILL). First, MILL uses a large-scale remote sensing image classification dataset to build pre-train networks for landslide feature extraction. Second, MILL extracts instances and assign instance labels without pixel-level annotations. Third, MILL uses a new channel attention–based MIL pooling function to map instance-level labels to bag-level label. We apply MIL to detect landslides in a loess area. Experimental results demonstrate that MILL is effective in identifying landslides in remote sensing images.
