scholarly journals Potato Leaf Disease Diagnosis and Detection System Based on Convolution Neural Network

For decades, agriculture has been an essential food source. According to related statics, over 60% of the total earth population mainly depend on agriculture’s sources for their primary feed. Unfortunately, one of the disaster problems that affect badly on agriculture production is plant diseases. There are about 25% of agriculture production lost annually because of plant diseases. Late and Early Blight diseases are one of the most destructive diseases that infect potato crop. Although, the late and inaccurate detection of plant diseases increases the losing percentage for the crop. The main approach of our proposed system is to detect early the plant diseases to decrease the plant’s production losses by using a diagnosis and detection system based on the Convolution Neural Network (CNN). We used CNN to extract the diseases features from the input images of the supported training dataset for classification purposes. For model training, 1700 of potato leaf images were used, then the testing process is done by using approximately 300 images and 100 images for fine tuning and parameters calibration against any biased data. Our proposed CNN architecture archives 98.2% accuracy, which is higher compared with other approaches run on the same dataset.

The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is spreading quickly and globally as a pandemic and is the biggest problem facing humanity nowadays. The medical resources have become insufficient in many areas. The importance of the fast diagnosis of the positive cases is increasing to prevent further spread of this pandemic. In this study, the deep learning technology for COVID-19 dataset expansion and detection model is proposed. In the first stage of proposed model, COVID-19 dataset as chest X-ray images were collected and pre-processed, followed by expanding the data using data augmentation, enhancement by image processing and histogram equalization techniuque. While in the second stage of this model, a new convolution neural network (CNN) architecture was built and trained to diagnose the COVID-19 dataset as a COVID-19 (infected) or normal (uninfected) case. Whereas, a graphical user interface (GUI) using with Tkinter was designed for the proposed COVID-19 detection model. Training simulations are carried out online on using Google colaboratory based graphics prossesing unit (GPU). The proposed model has successfully classified COVID-19 with accuracy of the training model is 93.8% for training dataset and 92.1% for validating dataset and reached to the targeted point with minimum epoch’s number to train this model with satisfying results.

Deep learning approaches have attracted a lot of attention in the automatic detection of Covid-19 and transfer learning is the most common approach. However, majority of the pre-trained models are trained on color images, which can cause inefficiencies when fine-tuning the models on Covid-19 images which are often grayscale. To address this issue, we propose a deep learning architecture called CovidNet which requires a relatively smaller number of parameters. CovidNet accepts grayscale images as inputs and is suitable for training with limited training dataset. Experimental results show that CovidNet outperforms other state-of-the-art deep learning models for Covid-19 detection.

Spoken language is fundamentally different from the written language in that it contains frequent disfluencies or parts of an utterance that are corrected by the speaker. Disfluency detection (removing these disfluencies) is desirable to clean the input for use in downstream NLP tasks. Most existing approaches to disfluency detection heavily rely on human-annotated data, which is scarce and expensive to obtain in practice. To tackle the training data bottleneck, in this work, we investigate methods for combining self-supervised learning and active learning for disfluency detection. First, we construct large-scale pseudo training data by randomly adding or deleting words from unlabeled data and propose two self-supervised pre-training tasks: (i) a tagging task to detect the added noisy words and (ii) sentence classification to distinguish original sentences from grammatically incorrect sentences. We then combine these two tasks to jointly pre-train a neural network. The pre-trained neural network is then fine-tuned using human-annotated disfluency detection training data. The self-supervised learning method can capture task-special knowledge for disfluency detection and achieve better performance when fine-tuning on a small annotated dataset compared to other supervised methods. However, limited in that the pseudo training data are generated based on simple heuristics and cannot fully cover all the disfluency patterns, there is still a performance gap compared to the supervised models trained on the full training dataset. We further explore how to bridge the performance gap by integrating active learning during the fine-tuning process. Active learning strives to reduce annotation costs by choosing the most critical examples to label and can address the weakness of self-supervised learning with a small annotated dataset. We show that by combining self-supervised learning with active learning, our model is able to match state-of-the-art performance with just about 10% of the original training data on both the commonly used English Switchboard test set and a set of in-house annotated Chinese data.

Intrusion detection is an emerging area of research in the computer security and net-works with the growing usage of internet in everyday life. Most intrusion detection systems (IDSs) mostly use a single classifier algorithm to classify the network traffic data as normal behavior or anomalous. However, these single classifier systems fail to provide the best possible attack detection rate with low false alarm rate. In this paper,we propose to use a hybrid intelligent approach using a combination of classifiers in order to make the decision intelligently, so that the overall performance of the resul-tant model is enhanced. The general procedure in this is to follow the supervised or un-supervised data filtering with classifier or cluster first on the whole training dataset and then the output are applied to another classifier to classify the data. In this re- search, we applied Neural Network with Supervised and Unsupervised Learning in order to implement the intrusion detection system. Moreover, in this project, we used the method of Parallelization with real time application of the system processors to detect the systems intrusions.Using this method enhanced the speed of the intrusion detection. In order to train and test the neural network, NSLKDD database was used. Creating some different intrusion detection systems, each of which considered as a single agent, we precisely proceeded with the signature-based intrusion detection of the network.In the proposed design, the attacks have been classified into 4 groups and each group is detected by an Agent equipped with intrusion detection system (IDS).These agents act independently and report the intrusion or non-intrusion in the system; the results achieved by the agents will be studied in the Final Analyst and at last the analyst reports that whether there has been an intrusion in the system or not.Keywords: Intrusion Detection, Multi-layer Perceptron, False Positives, Signature- based intrusion detection, Decision tree, Nave Bayes Classifier

Brain tumor is a mass that grows unevenly in the brain and directly affects human life. The mass occurs spontaneously because of the tissues surrounding the brain or the skull. There are two types of Brain tumor such as Benign and Malignant. Malignant brain tumors contain cancer cells and grow quickly and spread through to other brain and spine regions as well. Accurate and prompt diagnosis of brain tumors is essential for implementing an effective treatment of this disease. Brain images produced by the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technique are a rich source of data for brain tumor diagnosis and treatment in the medical field. Due to the existence of a large number of features compared to the other imaging types. The performance of existing methods is inadequate considering the medical significance of the classification problem. Earlier methods relied on manually delineated tumor regions, prior to classification. This prevented them from being fully automated. The automatic algorithms developed using CNN and its variants could not achieve an influential improvement in performance. In order to overcome such an issue, the proposed one is automatic brain tumor detection system, which is “ Enhanced Convolution Neural Network (CNN) Algorithm for MRI Images” for the detection of brain tumor is useful to detect and classify the Glioma part into low Glioma and high Glioma.
