Abstract Learning

Abstract. “Learning algorithms” are a class of computational tool designed to infer information from a data set, and then apply that information predictively. They are particularly well suited to complex pattern recognition, or to situations where a mathematical relationship needs to be modelled but where the underlying processes are not well understood, are too expensive to compute, or where signals are over-printed by other effects. If a representative set of examples of the relationship can be constructed, a learning algorithm can assimilate its behaviour, and may then serve as an efficient, approximate computational implementation thereof. A wide range of applications in geomorphometry and Earth surface dynamics may be envisaged, ranging from classification of landforms through to prediction of erosion characteristics given input forces. Here, we provide a practical overview of the various approaches that lie within this general framework, review existing uses in geomorphology and related applications, and discuss some of the factors that determine whether a learning algorithm approach is suited to any given problem.

Abstract Automatic gaze estimation not based on commercial and expensive eye tracking hardware solutions can enable several applications in the fields of human computer interaction (HCI) and human behavior analysis. It is therefore not surprising that several related techniques and methods have been investigated in recent years. However, very few camera-based systems proposed in the literature are both real-time and robust. In this work, we propose a real-time user-calibration-free gaze estimation system that does not need person-dependent calibration, can deal with illumination changes and head pose variations, and can work with a wide range of distances from the camera. Our solution is based on a 3-D appearance-based method that processes the images from a built-in laptop camera. Real-time performance is obtained by combining head pose information with geometrical eye features to train a machine learning algorithm. Our method has been validated on a data set of images of users in natural environments, and shows promising results. The possibility of a real-time implementation, combined with the good quality of gaze tracking, make this system suitable for various HCI applications.

The Difference

Many attempts were made to classify the bees that is bumble bee or honey bee , there have been such a large amount of researches which were made to seek out the difference between them on the premise of various features like wing size , size of bee , color, life cycle and many more. But altogether the analysis there have been either that specialize in qualitative or quantitative , but to beat this issue , thus researchers came up with an answer which might be both qualitative and quantitative analysis made to classify them. And making use of machine learning algorithm to classify them gives a lift . Now the classification would take less time as these algorithms are pretty fast and accurate . By using machine learning work is made easy . Lots of photographs had to be collected and stored for data set. And by using these machine learning algorithms we would be getting information about the bees which might be employed by researchers in further classification of bees. Manipulation of images had to be done so as on prepare them in such a way that they will be applied to the algorithms and have feature extraction done. As there have been a lot of photographs(data set) which take a lot of space and also the area in which bees were present in these photographs were too small so to accommodate it dimension reduction was done , it might not consider other images like trees , leaves , flowers which were there present in the photograph which we elect as a data set.

The Internet Of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rising infrastructure of 21st century. The classification of traffic over IoT networks is attained significance importance due to rapid growth of users and devices. It is need of the hour to isolate the normal traffic from the malicious traffic and to assign the normal traffic to the proper destination to suffice the QoS requirements of the IoT users. Detection of malicious traffic can be done by continuously monitoring traffic for suspicious links, files, connection created and received, unrecognised protocol/port numbers, and suspicious Destination/Source IP combinations. A proficient classification mechanism in IoT environment should be capable enough to classify the heavy traffic in a fast manner, to deflect the malevolent traffic on time and to transmit the benign traffic to the designated nodes for serving the needs of the users. In this work, adaboost and Xgboost machine learning algorithms and Deep Neural Networks approach are proposed to separate the IoT traffic which eventually enhances the throughput of IoT networks and reduces the congestion over IoT channels. The result of experiment indicates a deep learning algorithm achieves higher accuracy compared to machine learning algorithms.

In the past years artificial intelligence has seen several improvements, which drove its usage to grow in various different areas and became the focus of many researches. This can be attributed to improvements made in the learning algorithms and Big Data techniques, which can provide tremendous amount of training. The goal of this paper is to summarize the current state of artificial intelligence. We present its history, introduce the terminology used, and show technological areas using artificial intelligence as a core part of their applications. The paper also introduces the security concerns related to artificial intelligence solutions but also highlights how the technology can be used to enhance security in different applications. Finally, we present future opportunities and possible improvements. The paper shows some general artificial intelligence applications that demonstrate the wide range usage of the technology. Many applications are built around artificial intelligence technologies and there are many services that a developer can use to achieve intelligent behavior. The foundation of different approaches is a well-designed learning algorithm, while the key to every learning algorithm is the quality of the data set that is used during the learning phase. There are applications that focus on image processing like face detection or other gesture detection to identify a person. Other solutions compare signatures while others are for object or plate number detection (for example the automatic parking system of an office building). Artificial intelligence and accurate data handling can be also used for anomaly detection in a real time system. For example, there are ongoing researches for anomaly detection at the ZalaZone autonomous car test field based on the collected sensor data. There are also more general applications like user profiling and automatic content recommendation by using behavior analysis techniques. However, the artificial intelligence technology also has security risks needed to be eliminated before applying an application publicly. One concern is the generation of fake contents. These must be detected with other algorithms that focus on small but noticeable differences. It is also essential to protect the data which is used by the learning algorithm and protect the logic flow of the solution. Network security can help to protect these applications. Artificial intelligence can also help strengthen the security of a solution as it is able to detect network anomalies and signs of a security issue. Therefore, the technology is widely used in IT security to prevent different type of attacks. As different BigData technologies, computational power, and storage capacity increase over time, there is space for improved artificial intelligence solution that can learn from large and real time data sets. The advancements in sensors can also help to give more precise data for different solutions. Finally, advanced natural language processing can help with communication between humans and computer based solutions.

Abstract Machine learning algorithms hold the promise of greatly improving live cell image analysis by way of (1) analyzing far more imagery than can be achieved by more traditional manual approaches and (2) by eliminating the subjective nature of researchers and diagnosticians selecting the cells or cell features to be included in the analyzed data set. Currently, however, even the most sophisticated model based or machine learning algorithms require user supervision, meaning the subjectivity problem is not removed but rather incorporated into the algorithm’s initial training steps and then repeatedly applied to the imagery. To address this roadblock, we have developed a self-supervised machine learning algorithm that recursively trains itself directly from the live cell imagery data, thus providing objective segmentation and quantification. The approach incorporates an optical flow algorithm component to self-label cell and background pixels for training, followed by the extraction of additional feature vectors for the automated generation of a cell/background classification model. Because it is self-trained, the software has no user-adjustable parameters and does not require curated training imagery. The algorithm was applied to automatically segment cells from their background for a variety of cell types and five commonly used imaging modalities - fluorescence, phase contrast, differential interference contrast (DIC), transmitted light and interference reflection microscopy (IRM). The approach is broadly applicable in that it enables completely automated cell segmentation for long-term live cell phenotyping applications, regardless of the input imagery’s optical modality, magnification or cell type.

<p>The growing digitization of fossil images has vastly improved and broadened the potential application of big data and machine learning, particularly computer vision, in paleontology. Recent studies show that machine learning is capable of approaching human abilities of classifying images, and with the increase in computational power and visual data, it stands to reason that it can match human ability but at much greater efficiency in the near future. Here we demonstrate this potential of using deep learning to identify skeletal grains at different levels of the Linnaean taxonomic hierarchy. Our approach was two-pronged. First, we built a database of skeletal grain images spanning a wide range of animal phyla and classes and used this database to train the model. We used a Python-based method to automate image recognition and extraction from published sources. Second, we developed a deep learning algorithm that can attach multiple labels to a single image. Conventionally, deep learning is used to predict a single class from an image; here, we adopted a Branch Convolutional Neural Network (B-CNN) technique to classify multiple taxonomic levels for a single skeletal grain image. Using this method, we achieved over 90% accuracy for both the coarse, phylum-level recognition and the fine, class-level recognition across diverse skeletal grains (6 phyla and 15 classes). Furthermore, we found that image augmentation improves the overall accuracy. This tool has potential applications in geology ranging from biostratigraphy to paleo-bathymetry, paleoecology, and microfacies analysis. Further improvement of the algorithm and expansion of the training dataset will continue to narrow the efficiency gap between human expertise and machine learning.</p>
