In this study, we develop a method for detecting the motions performed on a trampoline using an accelerometer mounted on a smartwatch. This method will lead to a system that can be used to promote trampoline exercise using a home trampoline by detecting motions on the trampoline using a smartwatch. We proposed a method based on the convolutional neural network to detect the motions on a trampoline. As a result of the performance evaluation by leave-one-subject-out cross-validation on eight subjects, our method achieves 78.8% estimation accuracy, which is the best estimation accuracy compared to the baseline methods. We also evaluate the inference time and the battery consumption when the model is actually running on a smartwatch. Our method is effective for on-device prediction.

Leukemia is a disorder that affects the bone marrow, causing uncontrolled production of leukocytes, impairing the transport of oxygen and causing blood coagulation problems. In this article, we propose a new computational tool, named LeukNet, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture based on the VGG-16 convolutional blocks, to facilitate the leukemia diagnosis from blood smear images. We evaluated different architectures and fine-tuning methods using 18 datasets containing 3536 images with distinct characteristics of color, texture, contrast, and resolution. Additionally, data augmentation operations were applied to increase the training set by up to 20 times. The k-fold cross-validation (k = 5) results achieved 98.28% of accuracy. A cross-dataset validation technique, named LeaveOne-Dataset-Out Cross-Validation (LODOCV), is also proposed to evaluate the developed model’s generalization capability. The accuracy of using LODOCV on the ALL-IDB 1, ALL-IDB 2, and UFG datasets was 97.04%, 82.46%, and 70.24%, respectively, overcoming the current state-of-the-art results and offering new guidelines for image-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems in this area.

<span lang="EN-US">Fine-tuning of a model is a method that is most often required to cater to the users’ explicit requirements. But the question remains whether the model is accurate enough to be used for a certain application. This paper strives to present the metrics used for performance evaluation of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model. The evaluation is based on the training process which provides us with intermediate models after every 1000 iterations. While 1000 iterations are not substantial enough over the range of 490k iterations, the groups are sized with 100k iterations each. Now, the intention was to compare the recorded metrics to evaluate the model in terms of accuracy. The training model used the set of specific categories chosen from the Microsoft Common Objects in Context (MS COCO) dataset while allowing the users to use their externally available images to test the model’s accuracy. Our trained model ensured that all the objects are detected that are present in the image to depict the effect of precision.</span>

The classification of brain tumors is performed by biopsy, which is not usually conducted before definitive brain surgery. The improvement of technology and machine learning can help radiologists in tumor diagnostics without invasive measures. A machine-learning algorithm that has achieved substantial results in image segmentation and classification is the convolutional neural network (CNN). We present a new CNN architecture for brain tumor classification of three tumor types. The developed network is simpler than already-existing pre-trained networks, and it was tested on T1-weighted contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images. The performance of the network was evaluated using four approaches: combinations of two 10-fold cross-validation methods and two databases. The generalization capability of the network was tested with one of the 10-fold methods, subject-wise cross-validation, and the improvement was tested by using an augmented image database. The best result for the 10-fold cross-validation method was obtained for the record-wise cross-validation for the augmented data set, and, in that case, the accuracy was 96.56%. With good generalization capability and good execution speed, the new developed CNN architecture could be used as an effective decision-support tool for radiologists in medical diagnostics.

The automatic classification of various types of cardiomyopathies is desirable but has never been performed using a convolutional neural network (CNN). The purpose of this study was to evaluate currently available CNN models to classify cine magnetic resonance (cine-MR) images of cardiomyopathies. Method: Diastolic and systolic frames of 1200 cine-MR sequences of three categories of subjects (395 normal, 411 hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and 394 dilated cardiomyopathy) were selected, preprocessed, and labeled. Pretrained, fine-tuned deep learning models (VGG) were used for image classification (sixfold cross-validation and double split testing with hold-out data). The heat activation map algorithm (Grad-CAM) was applied to reveal salient pixel areas leading to the classification. Results: The diastolic–systolic dual-input concatenated VGG model cross-validation accuracy was 0.982 ± 0.009. Summed confusion matrices showed that, for the 1200 inputs, the VGG model led to 22 errors. The classification of a 227-input validation group, carried out by an experienced radiologist and cardiologist, led to a similar number of discrepancies. The image preparation process led to 5% accuracy improvement as compared to nonprepared images. Grad-CAM heat activation maps showed that most misclassifications occurred when extracardiac location caught the attention of the network. Conclusions: CNN networks are very well suited and are 98% accurate for the classification of cardiomyopathies, regardless of the imaging plane, when both diastolic and systolic frames are incorporated. Misclassification is in the same range as inter-observer discrepancies in experienced human readers.

Accurate capacity estimation can ensure the safe and reliable operation of lithium-ion batteries in practical applications. Recently, deep learning-based capacity estimation methods have demonstrated impressive advances. However, such methods suffer from limited labeled data for training, i.e., the capacity ground-truth of lithium-ion batteries. A capacity estimation method is proposed based on a semi-supervised convolutional neural network (SS-CNN). This method can automatically extract features from battery partial-charge information for capacity estimation. Furthermore, a semi-supervised training strategy is developed to take advantage of the extra unlabeled sample, which can improve the generalization of the model and the accuracy of capacity estimation even in the presence of limited labeled data. Compared with artificial neural networks and convolutional neural networks, the proposed method is demonstrated to improve capacity estimation accuracy.

Semantic segmentation and depth estimation are two important tasks in computer vision, and many methods have been developed to tackle them. Commonly these two tasks are addressed independently, but recently the idea of merging these two problems into a sole framework has been studied under the assumption that integrating two highly correlated tasks may benefit each other to improve the estimation accuracy. In this paper, depth estimation and semantic segmentation are jointly addressed using a single RGB input image under a unified convolutional neural network. We analyze two different architectures to evaluate which features are more relevant when shared by the two tasks and which features should be kept separated to achieve a mutual improvement. Likewise, our approaches are evaluated under two different scenarios designed to review our results versus single-task and multi-task methods. Qualitative and quantitative experiments demonstrate that the performance of our methodology outperforms the state of the art on single-task approaches, while obtaining competitive results compared with other multi-task methods.

Mitochondrial proteins are physiologically active in different compartments, and their abnormal location will trigger the pathogenesis of human mitochondrial pathologies. Correctly identifying submitochondrial locations can provide information for disease pathogenesis and drug design. A mitochondrion has four submitochondrial compartments, the matrix, the outer membrane, the inner membrane, and the intermembrane space, but various existing studies ignored the intermembrane space. The majority of researchers used traditional machine learning methods for predicting mitochondrial protein localization. Those predictors required expert-level knowledge of biology to be encoded as features rather than allowing the underlying predictor to extract features through a data-driven procedure. Besides, few researchers have considered the imbalance in datasets. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end predictor employing deep neural networks, DeepPred-SubMito, for protein submitochondrial location prediction. First, we utilize random over-sampling to decrease the influence caused by unbalanced datasets. Next, we train a multi-channel bilayer convolutional neural network for multiple subsequences to learn high-level features. Third, the prediction result is outputted through the fully connected layer. The performance of the predictor is measured by 10-fold cross-validation and 5-fold cross-validation on the SM424-18 dataset and the SubMitoPred dataset, respectively. Experimental results show that the predictor outperforms state-of-the-art predictors. In addition, the prediction of results in the M983 dataset also confirmed its effectiveness in predicting submitochondrial locations.
