This paper proposes a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) -based technique for the detection of micro defects on metal screw surfaces. The defects we consider include surface damage, surface dirt, and stripped screws. Images of metal screws with different types of defects are collected using industrial cameras, which are then employed to train the designed deep CNN. To enable efficient detection, we first locate screw surfaces in the pictures captured by the cameras, so that the images of screw surfaces can be extracted, which are then input to the CNN-based defect detector. Experiment results show that the proposed technique can achieve a detection accuracy of 98%; the average detection time per picture is 1.2 s. Comparisons with traditional machine vision techniques, e.g., template matching-based techniques, demonstrate the superiority of the proposed deep CNN-based one.

Traditional Approaches

Vision-based vehicle detection plays an important role in intelligent transportation systems. With the fast development of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), vision-based vehicle detection approaches have achieved significant improvements compared to traditional approaches. However, due to large vehicle scale variation, heavy occlusion, or truncation of the vehicle in an image, recent deep CNN-based object detectors still showed a limited performance. This paper proposes an improved framework based on Faster R-CNN for fast vehicle detection. Firstly, MobileNet architecture is adopted to build the base convolution layer in Faster R-CNN. Then, NMS algorithm after the region proposal network in the original Faster R-CNN is replaced by the soft-NMS algorithm to solve the issue of duplicate proposals. Next, context-aware RoI pooling layer is adopted to adjust the proposals to the specified size without sacrificing important contextual information. Finally, the structure of depthwise separable convolution in MobileNet architecture is adopted to build the classifier at the final stage of the Faster R-CNN framework to classify proposals and adjust the bounding box for each of the detected vehicle. Experimental results on the KITTI vehicle dataset and LSVH dataset show that the proposed approach achieved better performance compared to original Faster R-CNN in both detection accuracy and inference time. More specific, the performance of the proposed method is improved comparing with the original Faster R-CNN framework by 4% on the KITTI test set and 24.5% on the LSVH test set.

Detecting gait events from video data accurately would be a challenging problem. However, most detection methods for gait events are currently based on wearable sensors, which need high cooperation from users and power consumption restriction. This study presents a novel algorithm for achieving accurate detection of toe-off events using a single 2D vision camera without the cooperation of participants. First, a set of novel feature, namely consecutive silhouettes difference maps (CSD-maps), is proposed to represent gait pattern. A CSD-map can encode several consecutive pedestrian silhouettes extracted from video frames into a map. And different number of consecutive pedestrian silhouettes will result in different types of CSD-maps, which can provide significant features for toe-off events detection. Convolutional neural network is then employed to reduce feature dimensions and classify toe-off events. Experiments on a public database demonstrate that the proposed method achieves good detection accuracy.

Using image processing technology to extract important information, such as isoline and weather system of the meteorological facsimile chart, is conducive to integration with other information, and has important practical value in navigation operations, marine weather forecasting, target recognition, and image retrieval. In meteorological facsimile charts, there are many types of medium-value lines, dense lines in some areas, superimposition and presence of multiple information, such as isolines and isoline characters, intersection of specific weather system symbols, etc. For different types of contours, numeric characters, weather system symbols and other object characteristics, the corresponding object extraction and recognition methods are proposed: Remove the latitude and longitude lines and coastline in the meteorological facsimile map by basemap matching; According to the position and shape features of the figure box, extract the meteorological fax figure box, separate and remove the different character tagging information; On the basis of identifying triangles and semicircles in weather symbols of the frontal system, the frontal symbols are extracted based on the circumscribed triangles and template matching. First the contour character on the fax image is expanded into a block connected region. Determine the position of the character information by judging the number of pixels in the connected region, and then use rotation and template matching to identify the numeric character. Using the meteorological facsimile maps of the US Meteorological Center and the Japan Meteorological Center for the main information extraction, experiments show that the method of this paper has a good effect on the complete and accurate symbol extraction of frontal weather systems, and reduces the computational complexity of contour detection, isoline extraction and numerical recognition. The methods can detect some information from weather charts properly and the error rate is very low.

Multimedia digital data include medical record and financial documents, which are not guaranteed with security. The concerns for security of multimedia digital data is been a widespread issue in the field of cybernetics. With increasing malwares in video payloads, the proposed study aims to reduce the embedding of malwares using Pseudo Arbitrary Permutation based Cellular Automata Encryption (PAP-CAE) System in video payloads. This method reduces the malware attacks and distortion rate by permuting the secret keys with Pseudo arbitrary permutation. Before the application of PAP-CAE, 2D wavelet transform is applied on the multimedia files that compresses the complex files into different scales and position to be transmitted via a network with reduced size. Simultaneously, it performs the process of decryption and decompression to retrieve the original files. The proposed method is evaluated against existing methods to test its efficacy in terms of detection accuracy, detection time of malwares and false positive rate. The result shows that the proposed method is effective against the detection of malwares in multimedia video files.

Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) show remarkable performance in many areas. However, most of the applications require huge computational costs and massive memory, which are hard to obtain in devices with a relatively weak performance like embedded devices. To reduce the computational cost, and meantime, to preserve the performance of the trained deep CNN, we propose a new filter pruning method using an additional dataset derived by downsampling the original dataset. Our method takes advantage of the fact that information in high-resolution images is lost in the downsampling process. Each trained convolutional filter reacts differently to this information loss. Based on this, the importance of the filter is evaluated by comparing the gradient obtained from two different resolution images. We validate the superiority of our filter evaluation method using a VGG-16 model trained on CIFAR-10 and CUB-200-2011 datasets. The pruned network with our method shows an average of 2.66% higher accuracy in the latter dataset, compared to existing pruning methods when about 75% of the parameters are removed.

Finger-vein identification, a biometric technology that uses vein patterns in the human finger to identify people. In recent years, it has received increasing attention due to its tremendous advantages compared to fingerprint characteristics. Moreover, Deep-Convolutional Neural Networks (Deep-CNN) appeared to be highly successful for feature extraction in the finger-vein area, and most of the proposed works focus on new Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models, which require huge databases for training, a solution that may be more practicable in real world applications, is to reuse pretrained Deep-CNN models. In this paper, a finger-vein identification system is proposed, which uses Squeezenet pretrained Deep-CNN model as feature extractor from the left and the right finger vein patterns. Then, combines this Deep-based features by using a feature-level Discriminant Correlation Analysis (DCA) to reduce feature dimensions and to give the most relevant features. Finally, these composite feature vectors are used as input data for a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier, in an identification stage. This method is tested on two widely available finger vein databases, namely SDUMLA-HMT and FV-USM. Experimental results show that the proposed finger vein identification system achieves significant high mean accuracy rates.

It is a must to bring the fall detection system in to use with the increasing number of elder people in the world, because the most of them tend live voluntarily and at risk of injuries. Falls are dangerous in a few cases and could even lead to deadly injuries. A very robust fall detection system must be built in order to counter this problem. Here, we establish fall detection and recognition of daily live behavior through machine learning system. In order to detect different types of activities, including the detection of falls and day to-day activities, We use 2 shared archives for the accelerating and lateral speed data during this development. Logistic regression is used to determine motions such as drop, walk, climb, sit, stand and lie bases on the accelerating data and data on angular velocities. More specifically, the triaxial acceleration average value is used to achieve fall detection accuracy.

Template matching is an approach for signal pattern recognition, often used for biomedical signals including electroencephalogram (EEG). Since EEG is often severely contaminated by various physiological or pathological artifacts, identification and rejection of these artifacts with improved template matching algorithms would enhance the overall quality of EEG signals. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to improve the accuracy of conventional template matching methods by adopting the dynamic positional warping (DPW) technique, developed recently for handwriting pattern analysis. To validate the feasibility and superiority of the proposed method, eye-blink artifacts in the EEG signals were detected, and the results were then compared to those from conventional methods. DPW was found to outperform the conventional methods in terms of artifact detection accuracy, demonstrating the power of DPW in identifying specific one-dimensional data patterns.

Face verification for unrestricted faces in the wild is a challenging task. This paper proposes a method based on two deep convolutional neural networks(CNN) for face verification. In this work, we explore to use identification signal to supervise one CNN and the combination of semi-verification and identification to train the other one. In order to estimate semi-verification loss at a low computation cost, a circle, which is composed of all faces, is used for selecting face pairs from pairwise samples. In the process of face normalization, we propose to use different landmarks of faces to solve the problems caused by poses. And the final face representation is formed by the concatenating feature of each deep CNN after PCA reduction. What's more, each feature is a combination of multi-scale representations through making use of auxiliary classifiers. For the final verification, we only adopt the face representation of one region and one resolution of a face jointing Joint Bayesian classifier. Experiments show that our method can extract effective face representation with a small training dataset and our algorithm achieves 99.71% verification accuracy on LFW dataset.
