Deep Learning Model

Race recognition (RR), which has many applications such as in surveillance systems, image/video understanding, analysis, etc., is a difficult problem to solve completely. To contribute towards solving that problem, this article investigates using a deep learning model. An efficient Race Recognition Framework (RRF) is proposed that includes information collector (IC), face detection and preprocessing (FD&P), and RR modules. For the RR module, this study proposes two independent models. The first model is RR using a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) (the RR-CNN model). The second model (the RR-VGG model) is a fine-tuning model for RR based on VGG, the famous trained model for object recognition. In order to examine the performance of our proposed framework, we perform an experiment on our dataset named VNFaces, composed specifically of images collected from Facebook pages of Vietnamese people, to compare the accuracy between RR-CNN and RR-VGG. The experimental results show that for the VNFaces dataset, the RR-VGG model with augmented input images yields the best accuracy at 88.87% while RR-CNN, an independent and lightweight model, yields 88.64% accuracy. The extension experiments conducted prove that our proposed models could be applied to other race dataset problems such as Japanese, Chinese, or Brazilian with over 90% accuracy; the fine-tuning RR-VGG model achieved the best accuracy and is recommended for most scenarios.

Restoration Effect

In recent years, deep learning, as a very popular artificial intelligence method, can be said to be a small area in the field of image recognition. It is a type of machine learning, actually derived from artificial neural networks, and is a method used to learn the characteristics of sample data. It is a multilayer network, which can learn the information from the bottom to the top of the image through the multilayer network, so as to extract the characteristics of the sample, and then perform identification and classification. The purpose of deep learning is to make the machine have the same analytical and learning capabilities as the human brain. The ability of deep learning in data processing (including images) is unmatched by other methods, and its achievements in recent years have left other methods behind. This article comprehensively reviews the application research progress of deep convolutional neural networks in ancient Chinese pattern restoration and mainly focuses on the research based on deep convolutional neural networks. The main tasks are as follows: (1) a detailed and comprehensive introduction to the basic knowledge of deep convolutional neural and a summary of related algorithms along the three directions of text preprocessing, learning, and neural networks are provided. This article focuses on the related mechanism of traditional pattern repair based on deep convolutional neural network and analyzes the key structure and principle. (2) Research on image restoration models based on deep convolutional networks and adversarial neural networks is carried out. The model is mainly composed of four parts, namely, information masking, feature extraction, generating network, and discriminant network. The main functions of each part are independent and interdependent. (3) The method based on the deep convolutional neural network and the other two methods are tested on the same part of the Qinghai traditional embroidery image data set. From the final evaluation index of the experiment, the method in this paper has better evaluation index than the traditional image restoration method based on samples and the image restoration method based on deep learning. In addition, from the actual image restoration effect, the method in this paper has a better image restoration effect than the other two methods, and the restoration results produced are more in line with the habit of human observation with the naked eye.

Abstract Despite the rapid development of deep learning-based intelligent fault diagnosis methods on rotating machinery, the data-driven approach generally remains a "black box" to researchers, and its internal mechanism has not been sufficiently understood. The weak interpretability significantly impedes further development and applications of the effective deep neural network-based methods. This paper contributes efforts to understanding the mechanical signal processing of deep learning on the fault diagnosis problems. The diagnostic knowledge learned by the deep neural network is visualized using the neuron activation maximization and the saliency map methods. The discriminative features of different machine health conditions are intuitively observed. The relationship between the data-driven methods and the well-established conventional fault diagnosis knowledge is confirmed by the experimental investigations on two datasets. The results of this study can benefit researchers on understanding the complex neural networks, and increase the reliability of the data-driven fault diagnosis model in the real engineering cases.

The interaction between humans and an NAO robot using deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) is presented in this paper based on an innovative end-to-end pipeline method that applies two optimized CNNs, one for face recognition (FR) and another one for the facial expression recognition (FER) in order to obtain real-time inference speed for the entire process. Two different models for FR are considered, one known to be very accurate, but has low inference speed (faster region-based convolutional neural network), and one that is not as accurate but has high inference speed (single shot detector convolutional neural network). For emotion recognition transfer learning and fine-tuning of three CNN models (VGG, Inception V3 and ResNet) has been used. The overall results show that single shot detector convolutional neural network (SSD CNN) and faster region-based convolutional neural network (Faster R-CNN) models for face detection share almost the same accuracy: 97.8% for Faster R-CNN on PASCAL visual object classes (PASCAL VOCs) evaluation metrics and 97.42% for SSD Inception. In terms of FER, ResNet obtained the highest training accuracy (90.14%), while the visual geometry group (VGG) network had 87% accuracy and Inception V3 reached 81%. The results show improvements over 10% when using two serialized CNN, instead of using only the FER CNN, while the recent optimization model, called rectified adaptive moment optimization (RAdam), lead to a better generalization and accuracy improvement of 3%-4% on each emotion recognition CNN.

Background Pneumothorax can lead to a life-threatening emergency. The experienced radiologists can offer precise diagnosis according to the chest radiographs. The localization of the pneumothorax lesions will help to quickly diagnose, which will be benefit for the patients in the underdevelopment areas lack of the experienced radiologists. In recent years, with the development of large neural network architectures and medical imaging datasets, deep learning methods have become a methodology of choice for analyzing medical images. The objective of this study was to the construct convolutional neural networks to localize the pneumothorax lesions in chest radiographs. Methods and findings We developed a convolutional neural network, called CheXLocNet, for the segmentation of pneumothorax lesions. The SIIM-ACR Pneumothorax Segmentation dataset was used to train and validate CheXLocNets. The training dataset contained 2079 radiographs with the annotated lesion areas. We trained six CheXLocNets with various hyperparameters. Another 300 annotated radiographs were used to select parameters of these CheXLocNets as the validation set. We determined the optimal parameters by the AP50 (average precision at the intersection over union (IoU) equal to 0.50), a segmentation evaluation metric used by several well-known competitions. Then CheXLocNets were evaluated by a test set (1082 normal radiographs and 290 disease radiographs), based on the classification metrics: area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV); segmentation metrics: IoU and Dice score. For the classification, CheXLocNet with best sensitivity produced an AUC of 0.87, sensitivity of 0.78 (95% CI 0.73-0.83), and specificity of 0.78 (95% CI 0.76-0.81). CheXLocNet with best specificity produced an AUC of 0.79, sensitivity of 0.46 (95% CI 0.40-0.52), and specificity of 0.92 (95% CI 0.90-0.94). For the segmentation, CheXLocNet with best sensitivity produced an IoU of 0.69 and Dice score of 0.72. CheXLocNet with best specificity produced an IoU of 0.77 and Dice score of 0.79. We combined them to form an ensemble CheXLocNet. The ensemble CheXLocNet produced an IoU of 0.81 and Dice score of 0.82. Our CheXLocNet succeeded in automatically detecting pneumothorax lesions, without any human guidance. Conclusions In this study, we proposed a deep learning network, called, CheXLocNet, for the automatic segmentation of chest radiographs to detect pneumothorax. Our CheXLocNets generated accurate classification results and high-quality segmentation masks for the pneumothorax at the same time. This technology has the potential to improve healthcare delivery and increase access to chest radiograph expertise for the detection of diseases. Furthermore, the segmentation results can offer comprehensive geometric information of lesions, which can benefit monitoring the sequential development of lesions with high accuracy. Thus, CheXLocNets can be further extended to be a reliable clinical decision support tool. Although we used transfer learning in training CheXLocNet, the parameters of CheXLocNet was still large for the radiograph dataset. Further work is necessary to prune CheXLocNet suitable for the radiograph dataset.

Deep neural networks have witnessed great successes in various real applications, but it requires a large number of labeled data for training. In this paper, we propose tri-net, a deep neural network which is able to use massive unlabeled data to help learning with limited labeled data. We consider model initialization, diversity augmentation and pseudo-label editing simultaneously. In our work, we utilize output smearing to initialize modules, use fine-tuning on labeled data to augment diversity and eliminate unstable pseudo-labels to alleviate the influence of suspicious pseudo-labeled data. Experiments show that our method achieves the best performance in comparison with state-of-the-art semi-supervised deep learning methods. In particular, it achieves 8.30% error rate on CIFAR-10 by using only 4000 labeled examples.

Automatic logo recognition is gaining importance due to the increasing number of its applications. Unlike other object recognition tasks, logo recognition is more challenging because of the limited amount of the available original data. In this paper, the transfer leaning technique was applied to a Deep Convolutional Neural Network model to guarantee logo recognition using a small computational overhead. The proposed method was based on the Densely Connected Convolutional Networks (DenseNet). The experimental results show that for the FlickrLogos-32 logo recognition dataset, our proposed method performs comparably with state-of-the-art methods while using fewer parameters.

India accounts for the world’s largest number of cases in TB, with 2.8 million cases annually, and accounts for more than a quarter of the global TB burden. Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by the bacterium (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) which most commonly affects the lungs. TB is transmitted from person to person through the air. When people with TB cough, sneeze or spit, the germs are propelled into the air. This paper showcases a methodology which uses a Deep Learning Model (dCNN) for the detection of Tuberculosis in the lungs. The accuracy obtained by the methods for the model is desirable and dependable, which is increasingly productive in contrast to the accuracy shown by other neural networks.

Automatic garments design class identification for recommending the fashion trends is important nowadays because of the rapid growth of online shopping. By learning the properties of images efficiently, a machine can give better accuracy of classification. Several methods, based on Hand-Engineered feature coding exist for identifying garments design classes. But, most of the time, those methods do not help to achieve better results. Recently, Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have shown better performances for different object recognition. Deep CNN uses multiple levels of representation and abstraction that helps a machine to understand the types of data (images, sound, and text) more accurately. In this paper, we have applied deep CNN for identifying garments design classes. To evaluate the performances, we used two well-known CNN models AlexNet and VGGNet on two different datasets. We also propose a new CNN model based on AlexNet and found better results than existing state-of-the-art by a significant margin.

Deep neural networks, inspired by information processing in the brain, can achieve human-like performance for various tasks. However, research efforts to use these networks as models of the brain have primarily focused on modeling healthy brain function so far. In this work, we propose a paradigm for modeling neural diseases in silico with deep learning and demonstrate its use in modeling posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), an atypical form of Alzheimer’s disease affecting the visual cortex. We simulated PCA in deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) trained for visual object recognition by randomly injuring connections between artificial neurons. Results showed that injured networks progressively lost their object recognition capability. Simulated PCA impacted learned representations hierarchically, as networks lost object-level representations before category-level representations. Incorporating this paradigm in computational neuroscience will be essential for developing in silico models of the brain and neurological diseases. The paradigm can be expanded to incorporate elements of neural plasticity and to other cognitive domains such as motor control, auditory cognition, language processing, and decision making.
