Abstract Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) is a useful tool to estimate the probability of landslide occurrence, providing a scientific basis for natural hazards prevention, land use planning, and economic development in landslide-prone areas. To date, a large number of machine learning methods have been applied to LSM, and recently the advanced Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been gradually adopted to enhance the prediction accuracy of LSM. The objective of this study is to introduce a CNN based model in LSM and systematically compare its overall performance with the conventional machine learning models of random forest, logistic regression, and support vector machine. Herein, we selected the Jiuzhaigou region in Sichuan Province, China as the study area. A total number of 710 landslides and 12 predisposing factors were stacked to form spatial datasets for LSM. The ROC analysis and several statistical metrics, such as accuracy, root mean square error (RMSE), Kappa coefficient, sensitivity, and specificity were used to evaluate the performance of the models in the training and validation datasets. Finally, the trained models were calculated and the landslide susceptibility zones were mapped. Results suggest that both CNN and conventional machine-learning based models have a satisfactory performance (AUC: 85.72% − 90.17%). The CNN based model exhibits excellent good-of-fit and prediction capability, and achieves the highest performance (AUC: 90.17%) but also significantly reduces the salt-of-pepper effect, which indicates its great potential of application to LSM.

Cotton is a significant economic crop. It is vulnerable to aphids (Aphis gossypii Glovers) during the growth period. Rapid and early detection has become an important means to deal with aphids in cotton. In this study, the visible/near-infrared (Vis/NIR) hyperspectral imaging system (376–1044 nm) and machine learning methods were used to identify aphid infection in cotton leaves. Both tall and short cotton plants (Lumianyan 24) were inoculated with aphids, and the corresponding plants without aphids were used as control. The hyperspectral images (HSIs) were acquired five times at an interval of 5 days. The healthy and infected leaves were used to establish the datasets, with each leaf as a sample. The spectra and RGB images of each cotton leaf were extracted from the hyperspectral images for one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) analysis. The hyperspectral images of each leaf were used for three-dimensional (3D) analysis. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) were used for identification and compared with conventional machine learning methods. For the extracted spectra, 1D CNN had a fine classification performance, and the classification accuracy could reach 98%. For RGB images, 2D CNN had a better classification performance. For HSIs, 3D CNN performed moderately and performed better than 2D CNN. On the whole, CNN performed relatively better than conventional machine learning methods. In the process of 1D, 2D, and 3D CNN visualization, the important wavelength ranges were analyzed in 1D and 3D CNN visualization, and the importance of wavelength ranges and spatial regions were analyzed in 2D and 3D CNN visualization. The overall results in this study illustrated the feasibility of using hyperspectral imaging combined with multi-dimensional CNN to detect aphid infection in cotton leaves, providing a new alternative for pest infection detection in plants.

Visible-near-infrared spectrum (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy technology is one of the most important methods for non-destructive and rapid detection of soil total nitrogen (STN) content. In order to find a practical way to build STN content prediction model, three conventional machine learning methods and one deep learning approach are investigated and their predictive performances are compared and analyzed by using a public dataset called LUCAS Soil (19,019 samples). The three conventional machine learning methods include ordinary least square estimation (OLSE), random forest (RF), and extreme learning machine (ELM), while for the deep learning method, three different structures of convolutional neural network (CNN) incorporated Inception module are constructed and investigated. In order to clarify effectiveness of different pre-treatments on predicting STN content, the three conventional machine learning methods are combined with four pre-processing approaches (including baseline correction, smoothing, dimensional reduction, and feature selection) are investigated, compared, and analyzed. The results indicate that the baseline-corrected and smoothed ELM model reaches practical precision (coefficient of determination (R2) = 0.89, root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) = 1.60 g/kg, and residual prediction deviation (RPD) = 2.34). While among three different structured CNN models, the one with more 1 × 1 convolutions preforms better (R2 = 0.93; RMSEP = 0.95 g/kg; and RPD = 3.85 in optimal case). In addition, in order to evaluate the influence of data set characteristics on the model, the LUCAS data set was divided into different data subsets according to dataset size, organic carbon (OC) content and countries, and the results show that the deep learning method is more effective and practical than conventional machine learning methods and, on the premise of enough data samples, it can be used to build a robust STN content prediction model with high accuracy for the same type of soil with similar agricultural treatment.

The emergence of deep-learning methods in different computer vision tasks has proved to offer increased detection, recognition or segmentation accuracy when large annotated image datasets are available. In the case of medical image processing and computer-aided diagnosis within ultrasound images, where the amount of available annotated data is smaller, a natural question arises: are deep-learning methods better than conventional machine-learning methods? How do the conventional machine-learning methods behave in comparison with deep-learning methods on the same dataset? Based on the study of various deep-learning architectures, a lightweight multi-resolution Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture is proposed. It is suitable for differentiating, within ultrasound images, between the Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), respectively the cirrhotic parenchyma (PAR) on which HCC had evolved. The proposed deep-learning model is compared with other CNN architectures that have been adapted by transfer learning for the ultrasound binary classification task, but also with conventional machine-learning (ML) solutions trained on textural features. The achieved results show that the deep-learning approach overcomes classical machine-learning solutions, by providing a higher classification performance.

The City

Government 2.0 activities have become very attractive and popular. Using the platforms to support the activities, anyone can anytime report issues in a city on the Web and share the reports with other people. Since a variety of reports are posted, officials in the city management section have to give priorities to the reports. However, it is not easy task for the officials to judge the importance of the reports because importance judgments vary depending on the officials, and consequently the agreement rate becomes low. To remedy the low agreement rate problem of human judgment, it is necessary to create an intelligent agent which supports finding reports with high priorities. Hirokawa et al. employed the Support Vector Machine (SVM) with a word Feature Selection method (SVM+FS) to detect signs of danger from posted reports because the signs of danger is one of high priority issues to be dealt with. However they did not compare the SVM+FS method with other conventional machine learning methods and it is not clear if the SVM+FS method has better performance than the other methods. This paper explores methods for detecting the signs of danger through comprehensive experiments to develop an intelligent agent which supports officials in the city management sections. We explores conventional machine learning methods: SVM, Random Forest, Naïve Bayse using conventional word vectors, an LDA-based document vector, and word embedding by Word2Vec and compared the best method with SVM+FS. Experimental results illustrate the superiority of SVM+FS and invoke the importance of using multiple data sets when evaluating the methods of detecting signs of danger.

Segmentation Approach

The principal intention of this work is to compare the performance of the supervised brain tumour segmentation methods. These segmentation methods are based on machine learning. First, the input MR brain image is denoised by employing the adaptive bilateral filter, and the image contrast is enhanced employing the histogram equalization. Then we retrieve the features from the pre-processed image. Among several feature extraction methods, this work uses the shape, intensity, and texture feature extractors. Subsequent to removing these three types of features, fragment the tumor dependent on these recovered segments. The supervised segmentation approach is used for this. Among several supervised segmentation methods, this work uses three machine learning methods, namely Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Convolution Neural Network (CNN). Finally, the retrieved features are feed into these machine learning methods to segment the brain tumour regions. To find out the best machine learning approach, the performance of these three supervised machines learning methods is evaluated by four performance metrics. Based on these evaluations, the best segmentation approach is discovered. Four execution boundaries are utilized, in particular, Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC), Positive Predictive Value (PPV), Jaccard list (JI), and Sensitivity (SEN) to analyze the presentation of the AI strategy. The experimental outputs exposed that the CNN makes greater than other methods.
