Ice Leads

Despite accounting for a small fraction of the surface area in the Arctic, long and narrow sea ice fractures, known as “leads”, play a critical role in the energy flux between the ocean and atmosphere. As the volume of sea ice in the Arctic has declined over the past few decades, it is increasingly important to monitor the corresponding changes in sea ice leads. A novel approach has been developed using artificial intelligence (AI) to detect sea ice leads using satellite thermal infrared window data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS). In this new approach, a particular type of convolutional neural network, a U-Net, replaces a series of conventional image processing tests from our legacy algorithm. Results show the new approach has a high detection accuracy with F1 Scores on the order of 0.7. Compared to the legacy algorithm, the new algorithm shows improvement, with more true positives, fewer false positives, fewer false negatives, and better agreement between satellite instruments.

Current Inversion

Warm current has a strong impact on the melting of sea ice, so clarifying the current features plays a very important role in the Arctic sea ice coverage forecasting study field. Currently, Arctic acoustic tomography is the only feasible method for the large-range current measurement under the Arctic sea ice. Furthermore, affected by the high latitudes Coriolis force, small-scale variability greatly affects the accuracy of Arctic acoustic tomography. However, small-scale variability could not be measured by empirical parameters and resolved by Regularized Least Squares (RLS) in the inverse problem of Arctic acoustic tomography. In this paper, the convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed to enhance the prediction accuracy in the Arctic, and especially, Gaussian noise is added to reflect the disturbance of the Arctic environment. First, we use the finite element method to build the background ocean model. Then, the deep learning CNN method constructs the non-linear mapping relationship between the acoustic data and the corresponding flow velocity. Finally, the simulation result shows that the deep learning convolutional neural network method being applied to Arctic acoustic tomography could achieve 45.87% accurate improvement than the common RLS method in the current inversion.

Ice Leads

Sea ice leads (fractures) play a critical role in the exchange of mass and energy between the ocean and atmosphere in the polar regions. The thinning of Arctic sea ice over the last few decades will likely result in changes in lead distributions, so monitoring their characteristics is increasingly important. Here we present a methodology to detect and characterize sea ice leads using satellite imager thermal infrared window channels. A thermal contrast method is first used to identify possible sea ice lead pixels, then a number of geometric and image analysis tests are applied to build a subset of positively identified leads. Finally, characteristics such as width, length and orientation are derived. This methodology is applied to Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations for the months of January through April over the period of 2003 to 2018. The algorithm results are compared to other satellite estimates of lead distribution. Lead coverage maps and statistics over the Arctic illustrate spatial and temporal lead patterns.

The accurate knowledge of spatial and temporal variations of snow depth over sea ice in the Arctic basin is important for understanding the Arctic energy budget and retrieving sea ice thickness from satellite altimetry. In this study, we develop and validate a new method for retrieving snow depth over Arctic sea ice from brightness temperatures at different frequencies measured by passive microwave radiometers. We construct an ensemble-based deep neural network and use snow depth measured by sea ice mass balance buoys to train the network. First, the accuracy of the retrieved snow depth is validated with observations. The results show the derived snow depth is in good agreement with the observations, in terms of correlation, bias, root mean square error, and probability distribution. Our ensemble-based deep neural network can be used to extend the snow depth retrieval from first-year sea ice (FYI) to multi-year sea ice (MYI), as well as during the melting period. Second, the consistency and discrepancy of snow depth in the Arctic basin between our retrieval using the ensemble-based deep neural network and two other available retrievals using the empirical regression are examined. The results suggest that our snow depth retrieval outperforms these data sets.

Network Intrusion

To secure cloud computing and outsourced data while meeting the requirements of automation, many intrusion detection schemes based on deep learn ing are proposed. Though the detection rate of many network intrusion detection solutions can be quite high nowadays, their identification accuracy on imbalanced abnormal network traffic still remains low. Therefore, this paper proposes a ResNet &Inception-based convolutional neural network (RICNN) model to abnormal traffic classification. RICNN can learn more traffic features through the Inception unit, and the degradation problem of the network is eliminated through the direct map ping unit of ResNet, thus the improvement of the model?s generalization ability can be achievable. In addition, to simplify the network, an improved version of RICNN, which makes it possible to reduce the number of parameters that need to be learnt without degrading identification accuracy, is also proposed in this paper. The experimental results on the dataset CICIDS2017 show that RICNN not only achieves an overall accuracy of 99.386% but also has a high detection rate across different categories, especially for small samples. The comparison experiments show that the recognition rate of RICNN outperforms a variety of CNN models and RNN models, and the best detection accuracy can be achieved.

Grasp detection based on convolutional neural network has gained some achievements. However, overfitting of multilayer convolutional neural network still exists and leads to poor detection precision. To acquire high detection accuracy, a single target grasp detection network that generalizes the fitting of angle and position, based on the convolution neural network, is put forward here. The proposed network regards the image as input and grasping parameters including angle and position as output, with the detection manner of end-to-end. Particularly, preprocessing dataset is to achieve the full coverage to input of model and transfer learning is to avoid overfitting of network. Importantly, a series of experimental results indicate that, for single object grasping, our network has good detection results and high accuracy, which proves that the proposed network has strong generalization in direction and category.

The Impact

The computer ability to detect human being by computer vision is still being improved both in accuracy or computation time. In low-lighting condition, the detection accuracy is usually low. This research uses additional information, besides RGB channels, namely a depth map that shows objects’ distance relative to the camera. This research integrates Cascade Classifier (CC) to localize the potential object, the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) technique to identify the human and nonhuman image, and the Kalman filter technique to track human movement. For training and testing purposes, there are two kinds of RGB-D datasets used with different points of view and lighting conditions. Both datasets have been selected to remove images which contain a lot of noises and occlusions so that during the training process it will be more directed. Using these integrated techniques, detection and tracking accuracy reach 77.7%. The impact of using Kalman filter increases computation efficiency by 41%.

Detection Accuracy

Over the recent years, the term deep learning has been considered as one of the primary choice for handling huge amount of data. Having deeper hidden layers, it surpasses classical methods for detection of outlier in wireless sensor network. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a biologically inspired computational model which is one of the most popular deep learning approaches. It comprises neurons that self-optimize through learning. EEG generally known as Electroencephalography is a tool used for investigation of brain function and EEG signal gives time-series data as output. In this paper, we propose a state-of-the-art technique designed by processing the time-series data generated by the sensor nodes stored in a large dataset into discrete one-second frames and these frames are projected onto a 2D map images. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is then trained to classify these frames. The result improves detection accuracy and encouraging.
