Due to the complexity of the various waveforms of microseismic data, there are high requirements on the automatic multi-classification of such data; an accurate classification is conducive for further signal processing and stability analysis of surrounding rock masses. In this study, a microseismic multi-classification (MMC) model is proposed based on the short time Fourier transform (STFT) technology and convolutional neural network (CNN). The real and imaginary parts of the coefficients of microseismic data are inputted to the proposed model to generate three classes of targets. Compared with existing methods, the MMC has an optimal performance in multi-classification of microseismic data in terms of Precision, Recall, and F1-score, even when the waveform of a microseismic signal is similar to that of some special noise. Moreover, semisynthetic data constructed by clean microseismic data and noise are used to prove the low sensitivity of the MMC to noise. Microseismic data recorded under different geological conditions are also tested to prove the generality of the model, and a microseismic signal with Mw ≥ 0.2 can be detected with a high accuracy. The proposed method has great potential to be extended to the study of exploration seismology and earthquakes.

Natural disasters not only disturb the human ecological system but also destroy the properties and critical infrastructures of human societies and even lead to permanent change in the ecosystem. Disaster can be caused by naturally occurring events such as earthquakes, cyclones, floods, and wildfires. Many deep learning techniques have been applied by various researchers to detect and classify natural disasters to overcome losses in ecosystems, but detection of natural disasters still faces issues due to the complex and imbalanced structures of images. To tackle this problem, we propose a multilayered deep convolutional neural network. The proposed model works in two blocks: Block-I convolutional neural network (B-I CNN), for detection and occurrence of disasters, and Block-II convolutional neural network (B-II CNN), for classification of natural disaster intensity types with different filters and parameters. The model is tested on 4428 natural images and performance is calculated and expressed as different statistical values: sensitivity (SE), 97.54%; specificity (SP), 98.22%; accuracy rate (AR), 99.92%; precision (PRE), 97.79%; and F1-score (F1), 97.97%. The overall accuracy for the whole model is 99.92%, which is competitive and comparable with state-of-the-art algorithms.

Background: The effective classification of the melting curve is conducive to measure the specificity of the amplified products and the influence of invalid data on subsequent experiments is excluded. Objective: In this paper, a convolutional neural network (CNN) classification model based on dynamic filter is proposed, which can categorize the number of peaks in the melting curve image and distinguish the pollution data represented by the noise peaks. Method: The main advantage of the proposed model is that it adopts the filter which changes with the input and uses the dynamic filter to capture more information in the image, making the network learning more accurate. In addition, the residual module is used to extract the characteristics of the melting curve, and the pooling operation is replaced with an atrous convolution to prevent the loss of context information. Result: In order to train the proposed model, a novel melting curve dataset is created, which includes a balanced dataset and an unbalanced dataset. The proposed method uses six classification-based assessment criteria to compare with seven representative methods based on deep learning. Experimental results show that proposed method is not only markedly outperforms the other state-of-the-art methods in accuracy, but also has much less running time. Conclusion: It evidently proves that the proposed method is suitable for judging the specificity of amplification products according to the melting curve. Simultaneously, it overcomes the difficulties of manual selection with low efficiency and artificial bias.

Plants have a great role to play in biodiversity sustenance. These natural products not only push their demand for agricultural productivity, but also for the manufacturing of medical products, cosmetics and many more. Apple is one of the fruits that is known for its excellent nutritional properties and is therefore recommended for daily intake. However, due to various diseases in apple plants, farmers have to suffer from a huge loss. This not only causes severe effects on fruit’s health, but also decreases its overall productivity, quantity, and quality. A novel convolutional neural network (CNN) based model for recognition and classification of apple leaf diseases is proposed in this paper. The proposed model applies contrast stretching based pre-processing technique and fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm for the identification of plant diseases. These techniques help to improve the accuracy of CNN model even with lesser size of dataset. 400 image samples (200 healthy, 200 diseased) of apple leaves have been used to train and validate the performance of the proposed model. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 98%. To achieve this accuracy, it uses lesser data-set size as compared to other existing models, without compromising with the performance, which become possible due to use of contrast stretching pre-processing combined with FCM clustering algorithm.

Batik is one of the Indonesian cultural heritages that has been recognized by the global community. Indonesian batik has a vast diversity in motifs that illustrate the philosophy of life, the ancestral heritage and also reflects the origin of batik itself. Because of the manybatik motifs, problems arise in determining the type of batik itself. Therefore, we need a classification method that can classify various batik motifs automatically based on the batik images. The technique of image classification that is used widely now is deep learning method. This technique has been proven of its capacity in identifying images in high accuracy. Architecture that is widely used for the image data analysis is Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) because this architecture is able to detect and recognize objects in an image. This workproposes to use the method of CNN and VGG architecture that have been modified to overcome the problems of classification of the batik motifs. Experiments of using 2.448 batik images from 5 classes of batik motifs showed that the proposed model has successfully achieved an accuracy of 96.30%.

SUMMARY In this paper, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were used to distinguish between tectonic and non-tectonic seismicity. The proposed CNNs consisted of seven convolutional layers with small kernels and one fully connected layer, which only relied on the acoustic waveform without extracting features manually. For a single station, the accuracy of the model was 0.90, and the event accuracy could reach 0.93. The proposed model was tested using data from January 2019 to August 2019 in China. The event accuracy could reach 0.92, showing that the proposed model could distinguish between tectonic and non-tectonic seismicity.

Indian classical dance (ICD) classification is an interesting subject because of its complex body posture. It provides a stage to experiment with various computer vision and deep learning concepts. With a change in learning styles, automated teaching solutions have become inevitable in every field, from traditional to online platforms. Additionally, ICD forms an essential part of a rich cultural and intangible heritage, which at all costs must be modernized and preserved. In this paper, we have attempted an exhaustive classification of dance forms into eight categories. For classification, we have proposed a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model using ResNet50, which outperforms various state-of-the-art approaches.Additionally, to our surprise, the proposed model also surpassed a few recently published works in terms of performance evaluation. The input to the proposed network is initially pre-processed using image thresholding and sampling. Next, a truncated DCNN based on ResNet50 is applied to the pre-processed samples. The proposed model gives an accuracy score of 0.911.
