Abstract. RPAs (Remotely Piloted Aircrafts) have been used in many Remote Sensing applications, featuring high-quality imaging sensors. In some situations, the images are interpreted in an automated fashion using object-oriented classification. In this case, the first step is segmentation. However, the setting of segmentation parameters such as scale, shape, and compactness may yield too many different segmentations, thus it is necessary to understand the influence of those parameters on the final output. This paper compares 24 segmentation parameter sets by taking into account classification scores. The results indicate that the segmentation parameters exert influence on both classification accuracy and processing time.

The spectral characteristic to classify the remote sensing image classification methods based on pixels of tradition, and the object oriented classification method besides the spectral information, texture feature, also includes the spatial structure of images and other information, so the classification accuracy is very high. In this paper, the remote sensing image based on object oriented classification, puts forward the classification of remote sensing image segmentation based on multiple information combination. Experiments show that, this method can overcome the pixel maximum likelihood classification based on frequent pepper phenomenon of tradition, greatly improves the classification accuracy and reliability. and has better visual effect.


The remote sensing satellite products: multispectral and panchromatic imagery are characterized by different levels of spatio-spectral resolutions. The fusion of these two images (provided, they are acquired for same geographic scenario) is also known as ‘Pansharpening’. This produces a composite image featuring simultaneous high levels of spatio-spectral resolutions to meet the demand of the most of remote sensing applications. Thus, different approaches for such fusion and further its quality assessment are continuously researched. The modulation transfer function is unique to the imaging sensors. In this paper, the sensor relationship of the input imagery is optimized to produce the efficient pansharpened/fused image. The performance measurement is carried out on two real datasets made available by WorldView-2 and WorldView-3 satellite sensors using two assessment techniques. The results of optimization approach are further compared to nine different most recent fusion algorithms

Fracture of a dental implant (DI) is a rare mechanical complication that is a critical cause of DI failure and explantation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of a three different deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) architectures (VGGNet-19, GoogLeNet Inception-v3, and automated DCNN) for the detection and classification of fractured DI using panoramic and periapical radiographic images. A total of 21,398 DIs were reviewed at two dental hospitals, and 251 intact and 194 fractured DI radiographic images were identified and included as the dataset in this study. All three DCNN architectures achieved a fractured DI detection and classification accuracy of over 0.80 AUC. In particular, automated DCNN architecture using periapical images showed the highest and most reliable detection (AUC = 0.984, 95% CI = 0.900–1.000) and classification (AUC = 0.869, 95% CI = 0.778–0.929) accuracy performance compared to fine-tuned and pre-trained VGGNet-19 and GoogLeNet Inception-v3 architectures. The three DCNN architectures showed acceptable accuracy in the detection and classification of fractured DIs, with the best accuracy performance achieved by the automated DCNN architecture using only periapical images.

The cell cycle is an important process in cellular life. In recent years, some image processing methods have been developed to determine the cell cycle stages of individual cells. However, in most of these methods, cells have to be segmented, and their features need to be extracted. During feature extraction, some important information may be lost, resulting in lower classification accuracy. Thus, we used a deep learning method to retain all cell features. In order to solve the problems surrounding insufficient numbers of original images and the imbalanced distribution of original images, we used the Wasserstein generative adversarial network-gradient penalty (WGAN-GP) for data augmentation. At the same time, a residual network (ResNet) was used for image classification. ResNet is one of the most used deep learning classification networks. The classification accuracy of cell cycle images was achieved more effectively with our method, reaching 83.88%. Compared with an accuracy of 79.40% in previous experiments, our accuracy increased by 4.48%. Another dataset was used to verify the effect of our model and, compared with the accuracy from previous results, our accuracy increased by 12.52%. The results showed that our new cell cycle image classification system based on WGAN-GP and ResNet is useful for the classification of imbalanced images. Moreover, our method could potentially solve the low classification accuracy in biomedical images caused by insufficient numbers of original images and the imbalanced distribution of original images.

Aroma plays a significant role in the quality of citrus fruits and processed products. The detection and analysis of citrus volatiles can be measured by an electronic nose (E-nose); in this paper, an E-nose is employed to classify the juice which is stored for different days. Feature extraction and classification are two important requirements for an E-nose. During the training process, a classifier can optimize its own parameters to achieve a better classification accuracy but cannot decide its input data which is treated by feature extraction methods, so the classification result is not always ideal. Label consistent KSVD (L-KSVD) is a novel technique which can extract the feature and classify the data at the same time, and such an operation can improve the classification accuracy. We propose an enhanced L-KSVD called E-LCKSVD for E-nose in this paper. During E-LCKSVD, we introduce a kernel function to the traditional L-KSVD and present a new initialization technique of its dictionary; finally, the weighted coefficients of different parts of its object function is studied, and enhanced quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (EQPSO) is employed to optimize these coefficients. During the experimental section, we firstly find the classification accuracy of KSVD, and L-KSVD is improved with the help of the kernel function; this can prove that their ability of dealing nonlinear data is improved. Then, we compare the results of different dictionary initialization techniques and prove our proposed method is better. Finally, we find the optimal value of the weighted coefficients of the object function of E-LCKSVD that can make E-nose reach a better performance.
