This paper plans to develop a novel image compression model with four major phases. (i) Segmentation (ii) Feature Extraction (iii) ROI classification (iv) Compression. The image is segmented into two regions by Adaptive ACM. The result of ACM is the production of two regions, this model enables separate ROI classification phase. For performing this, the features corresponding to GLCM are extracted from the segmented parts. Further, they are subjected to classification via NN, in which new training algorithm is adopted. As a main novelty JA and WOA are merged together to form J-WOA with the aim of tuning the ACM (weighting factor and maximum iteration), and training algorithm of NN, where the weights are optimized. This model is referred as J-WOA-NN. This classification model exactly classifies the ROI regions. During the compression process, the ROI regions are handled by JPEG-LS algorithm and the non-ROI region are handled by wavelet-based lossy compression algorithm. Finally, the decompression model is carried out by adopting the same reverse process.

Abstract Big data in medical diagnosis can provide abundant value for clinical diagnosis, decision support and many other applications, but obtaining a large number of labeled medical data will take a lot of time and manpower. In this paper, a classification model based on semi-supervised learning algorithm using both labeled and unlabeled data is proposed to process big data in medical diagnosis, which includes structured, semi-structured and unstructured data. For the medical laboratory data, this paper proposes a self-training algorithm based on repeated labeling strategy to solve the problem that mislabeled samples weaken the performance of classifiers. Aiming at medical record data, this paper extracts features with high correlation of classification results based on domain expert knowledge base first, and then chooses the unlabeled medical record data with the highest confidence to expand the training set and optimizes the performance of the classifiers of tri-training algorithm, which uses supervised learning algorithm to train three basic classifiers. The experimental results show that the proposed medical diagnosis data classification model based on semi-supervised learning algorithm has good performance.

The existing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image target detection methods based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved remarkable performance, but these methods require a large number of target-level labeled training samples to train the network. Moreover, some clutter is very similar to targets in SAR images with complex scenes, making the target detection task very difficult. Therefore, a SAR target detection network based on a semi-supervised learning and attention mechanism is proposed in this paper. Since the image-level label simply marks whether the image contains the target of interest or not, which is easier to be labeled than the target-level label, the proposed method uses a small number of target-level labeled training samples and a large number of image-level labeled training samples to train the network with a semi-supervised learning algorithm. The proposed network consists of a detection branch and a scene recognition branch with a feature extraction module and an attention module shared between these two branches. The feature extraction module can extract the deep features of the input SAR images, and the attention module can guide the network to focus on the target of interest while suppressing the clutter. During the semi-supervised learning process, the target-level labeled training samples will pass through the detection branch, while the image-level labeled training samples will pass through the scene recognition branch. During the test process, considering the help of global scene information in SAR images for detection, a novel coarse-to-fine detection procedure is proposed. After the coarse scene recognition determining whether the input SAR image contains the target of interest or not, the fine target detection is performed on the image that may contain the target. The experimental results based on the measured SAR dataset demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better performance than the existing methods.

Recently, the rapid development of multispectral imaging technology has received great attention from many fields, which inevitably involves the image transmission and storage problem. To solve this issue, a novel end-to-end multispectral image compression method based on spectral–spatial feature partitioned extraction is proposed. The whole multispectral image compression framework is based on a convolutional neural network (CNN), whose innovation lies in the feature extraction module that is divided into two parallel parts, one is for spectral and the other is for spatial. Firstly, the spectral feature extraction module is used to extract spectral features independently, and the spatial feature extraction module is operated to obtain the separated spatial features. After feature extraction, the spectral and spatial features are fused element-by-element, followed by downsampling, which can reduce the size of the feature maps. Then, the data are converted to bit-stream through quantization and lossless entropy encoding. To make the data more compact, a rate-distortion optimizer is added to the network. The decoder is a relatively inverse process of the encoder. For comparison, the proposed method is tested along with JPEG2000, 3D-SPIHT and ResConv, another CNN-based algorithm on datasets from Landsat-8 and WorldView-3 satellites. The result shows the proposed algorithm outperforms other methods at the same bit rate.

With the always increasing amount of image data, it has become a necessity to automatically look for and process information in these images. As fashion is captured in images, the fashion sector provides the perfect foundation to be supported by the integration of a service or application that is built on an image classification model. In this article, the state of the art for image classification is analyzed and discussed. Based on the elaborated knowledge, four different approaches will be implemented to successfully extract features out of fashion data. For this purpose, a human-worn fashion dataset with 2567 images was created, but it was significantly enlarged by the performed image operations. The results show that convolutional neural networks are the undisputed standard for classifying images, and that TensorFlow is the best library to build them. Moreover, through the introduction of dropout layers, data augmentation and transfer learning, model overfitting was successfully prevented, and it was possible to incrementally improve the validation accuracy of the created dataset from an initial 69% to a final validation accuracy of 84%. More distinct apparel like trousers, shoes and hats were better classified than other upper body clothes.

Fractal image compression is a lossy compression technique developed in the early 1990s. It makes use of the local self-similarity property existing in an image and finds a contractive mapping affine transformation (fractal transform) T, such that the fixed point of T is close to the given image in a suitable metric. It has generated much interest due to its promise of high compression ratios with good decompression quality. Image encoding based on fractal block-coding method relies on assumption that image redundancy can be efficiently exploited through block-self transformability. It has shown promise in producing high fidelity, resolution independent images. The low complexity of decoding process also suggested use in real time applications. The high encoding time, in combination with patents on technology have unfortunately discouraged results. In this paper, we have proposed efficient domain search technique using feature extraction for the encoding of fractal image which reduces encoding-decoding time and proposed technique improves quality of compressed image.

Semi-supervised learning algorithms have become a topic of significant research as an alternative to traditional classification methods which exhibit remarkable performance over labeled data but lack the ability to be applied on large amounts of unlabeled data. In this work, we propose a new semi-supervised learning algorithm that dynamically selects the most promising learner for a classification problem from a pool of classifiers based on a self-training philosophy. Our experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms its component semi-supervised learning algorithms in terms of accuracy, leading to more efficient, stable and robust predictive models.

Alert classifiers built with the supervised classification technique require large amounts of labeled training alerts. Preparing for such training data is very difficult and expensive. Thus accuracy and feasibility of current classifiers are greatly restricted. This paper employs semi-supervised learning to build alert classification model to reduce the number of needed labeled training alerts. Alert context properties are also introduced to improve the classification performance. Experiments have demonstrated the accuracy and feasibility of our approach.
