With the increasing popularity of artificial intelligence, deep learning has been applied to various fields, especially in computer vision. Since artificial intelligence is migrating from cloud to edge, deep learning nowadays should be edge-oriented and adaptive to complex environments. Aiming at these goals, this paper proposes an ICONet (illumination condition optimized network). Based on OTSU segmentation algorithm and fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm, the illumination condition classification subnet increases the environmental adaptivity of our network. The reduced time complexity and optimized size of our convolutional neural network (CNN) model enables the implementation of ICONet on edge devices. In the field of fatigue driving, we test the performance of ICONet on YawDD and self-collected datasets. Our network achieves a general accuracy of 98.56% and our models are about 590 kilobytes. Compared to other proposed networks, the ICONet shows significant success and superiority. Applying ICONet to fatigue driving detection is helpful to solve the symmetry of the needs of edge-oriented detection under complex illumination condition environments and the scarcity of related approaches.

Multi-modal image fusion techniques aid the medical experts in better disease diagnosis by providing adequate complementary information from multi-modal medical images. These techniques enhance the effectiveness of medical disorder analysis and classification of results. This study aims at proposing a novel technique using deep learning for the fusion of multi-modal medical images. The modified 2D Adaptive Bilateral Filters (M-2D-ABF) algorithm is used in the image pre-processing for filtering various types of noises. The contrast and brightness are improved by applying the proposed Energy-based CLAHE algorithm in order to preserve the high energy regions of the multimodal images. Images from two different modalities are first registered using mutual information and then registered images are fused to form a single image. In the proposed fusion scheme, images are fused using Siamese Neural Network and Entropy (SNNE)-based image fusion algorithm. Particularly, the medical images are fused by using Siamese convolutional neural network structure and the entropy of the images. Fusion is done on the basis of score of the SoftMax layer and the entropy of the image. The fused image is segmented using Fast Fuzzy C Means Clustering Algorithm (FFCMC) and Otsu Thresholding. Finally, various features are extracted from the segmented regions. Using the extracted features, classification is done using Logistic Regression classifier. Evaluation is performed using publicly available benchmark dataset. Experimental results using various pairs of multi-modal medical images reveal that the proposed multi-modal image fusion and classification techniques compete the existing state-of-the-art techniques reported in the literature.

Perception System

Environment perception is a basic and necessary technology for autonomous vehicles to ensure safety and reliable driving. A lot of studies have focused on the ideal environment, while much less work has been done on the perception of low-observable targets, features of which may not be obvious in a complex environment. However, it is inevitable for autonomous vehicles to drive in environmental conditions such as rain, snow and night-time, during which the features of the targets are not obvious and detection models trained by images with significant features fail to detect low-observable target. This article mainly studies the efficient and intelligent recognition algorithm of low-observable targets in complex environments, focuses on the development of engineering method to dual-modal image (color–infrared images) low-observable target recognition and explores the applications of infrared imaging and color imaging for an intelligent perception system in autonomous vehicles. A dual-modal deep neural network is established to fuse the color and infrared images and detect low-observable targets in dual-modal images. A manually labeled color–infrared image dataset of low-observable targets is built. The deep learning neural network is trained to optimize internal parameters to make the system capable for both pedestrians and vehicle recognition in complex environments. The experimental results indicate that the dual-modal deep neural network has a better performance on the low-observable target detection and recognition in complex environments than traditional methods.

Invasive plants are a major agent threatening biodiversity conservation and directly affecting our living environment. This study aims to evaluate the potential of deep learning, one of the fastest-growing trends in machine learning, to detect plant invasion in urban parks using high-resolution (0.1 m) aerial image time series. Capitalizing on a state-of-the-art, popular architecture residual neural network (ResNet), we examined key challenges applying deep learning to detect plant invasion: relatively limited training sample size (invasion often confirmed in the field) and high forest contextual variation in space (from one invaded park to another) and over time (caused by varying stages of invasion and the difference in illumination condition). To do so, our evaluations focused on a widespread exotic plant, autumn olive (Elaeagnus umbellate), that has invaded 20 urban parks across Mecklenburg County (1410 km2) in North Carolina, USA. The results demonstrate a promising spatial and temporal generalization capacity of deep learning to detect urban invasive plants. In particular, the performance of ResNet was consistently over 96.2% using training samples from 8 (out of 20) or more parks. The model trained by samples from only four parks still achieved an accuracy of 77.4%. ResNet was further found tolerant of high contextual variation caused by autumn olive’s progressive invasion and the difference in illumination condition over the years. Our findings shed light on prioritized mitigation actions for effectively managing urban invasive plants.

<p>The advancement of Artificial Intelligence & Deep Learning has catalyzed the field of technology. The progression in these fields is exponentially increasing, and the discoveries which were once just an imagination are now changed into reality. The evolution of cars each year has made a lot of difference in people travelling from one place to another. One such reform involving Artificial Intelligence & Deep Learning is the birth of a self-driving car. The future is here where one can reach their destination hassle-free safely without the fear of accidents. This paper introduces a practical model of the self-driving robotics car, which can travel from one position to another on different types of tracks. A Pi-camera module is attached with the help of Raspberry Pi, which sends series of image frames to the Convolutional neural network, which then foretells the car to move in a specific direction, i.e. right, left, forward and reverse direction. The outcome is the robotics car, which travels in the desired direction without any individual effort.<br></p>
