Cloud radio access network (CRAN) is a prominent framework in the 5G mobile network to meet the above requirements by deploying low-cost and intelligent multiple distributed antennas known as remote radio heads (RRHs). However, achieving the optimal resource allocation (RA) in CRAN using the traditional approach is still challenging due to the complex structure. In this paper, we introduce the convolutional neural network-based deep Q-network (CNN-DQN) to balance the energy consumption and guarantee the user quality of service (QoS) demand in downlink CRAN. We first formulate the Markov decision process (MDP) for energy efficiency (EE) and build up a 3-layer CNN to capture the environment feature as an input state space. We then use DQN to turn on/off the RRHs dynamically based on the user QoS demand and energy consumption in the CRAN. Finally, we solve the RA problem based on the user constraint and transmit power to guarantee the user QoS demand and maximize the EE with a minimum number of active RRHs. In the end, we conduct the simulation to compare our proposed scheme with nature DQN and the traditional approach.展开更多

In this paper, the objective evaluation system of fabric flatness based on 3D scanner and convolutional neural network (CNN) is constructed by using the height data of AATCC flatness template. The 3D scanner is responsible for the collection of the height value data of the sample. The effect of different sub-sample cutting sizes, cutting offsets, and network model depths on the objective evaluation coincidence rate of multiple flatness level was studied. The experimental results show that the coincidence rate of the system reaches 98.9% when the collected sample data are cut into subsamples of 20 pixel × 20 pixel with 12 pixel cutting offsets and the 11-layer network model is selected. Finally, this scheme is used to evaluate the flatness of four real fabrics with different colors and textures. The result shows that all of the samples can achieve a higher coincidence rate, which further verifies the adaptability and stability of the objective evaluation system constructed in this paper for fabric flatness evaluation.展开更多

Globally, cancer is the second leading cause ofdeath and among over a hundred types of cancer;lung cancer is the secondmost common type of cancer as well as the leading cause of cancer-relateddeaths. Anyhow, an accurate lung cancer diagnosis in a timely manner canelevate the likelihood of survival by a noticeable margin and medical imagingis a prevalent manner of cancer diagnosis since it is easily accessible to peoplearound the globe. Nonetheless, this is not eminently efficacious consideringhuman inspection of medical images can yield a high false positive rate. Ineffectiveand inefficient diagnosis is a crucial reason for such a high mortalityrate for this malady. However, the conspicuous advancements in deep learningand artificial intelligence have stimulated the development of exceedinglyprecise diagnosis systems. The development and performance of these systemsrely prominently on the data that is used to train these systems. A standardproblem witnessed in publicly available medical image datasets is the severeimbalance of data between different classes. This grave imbalance of data canmake a deep learning model biased towards the dominant class and unableto generalize. This study aims to present an end-to-end convolutional neuralnetwork that can accurately differentiate lung nodules from non-nodules andreduce the false positive rate to a bare minimum. To tackle the problem ofdata imbalance, we oversampled the data by transforming available images inthe minority class. The average false positive rate in the proposed method isa mere 1.5 percent. However, the average false negative rate is 31.76 percent.The proposed neural network has 68.66 percent sensitivity and 98.42 percentspecificity.展开更多

文摘The analysis of Android malware shows that this threat is constantly increasing and is a real threat to mobile devices since traditional approaches,such as signature-based detection,are no longer effective due to the continuously advancing level of sophistication.To resolve this problem,efficient and flexible malware detection tools are needed.This work examines the possibility of employing deep CNNs to detect Android malware by transforming network traffic into image data representations.Moreover,the dataset used in this study is the CIC-AndMal2017,which contains 20,000 instances of network traffic across five distinct malware categories:a.Trojan,b.Adware,c.Ransomware,d.Spyware,e.Worm.These network traffic features are then converted to image formats for deep learning,which is applied in a CNN framework,including the VGG16 pre-trained model.In addition,our approach yielded high performance,yielding an accuracy of 0.92,accuracy of 99.1%,precision of 98.2%,recall of 99.5%,and F1 score of 98.7%.Subsequent improvements to the classification model through changes within the VGG19 framework improved the classification rate to 99.25%.Through the results obtained,it is clear that CNNs are a very effective way to classify Android malware,providing greater accuracy than conventional techniques.The success of this approach also shows the applicability of deep learning in mobile security along with the direction for the future advancement of the real-time detection system and other deeper learning techniques to counter the increasing number of threats emerging in the future.

文摘Underwater target recognition is a key technology for underwater acoustic countermeasure.How to classify and recognize underwater targets according to the noise information of underwater targets has been a hot topic in the field of underwater acoustic signals.In this paper,the deep learning model is applied to underwater target recognition.Improved anti-noise Power-Normalized Cepstral Coefficients(ia-PNCC)is proposed,based on PNCC applied to underwater noises.Multitaper and normalized Gammatone filter banks are applied to improve the anti-noise capacity.The method is combined with a convolutional neural network in order to recognize the underwater target.Experiment results show that the acoustic feature presented by ia-PNCC has lower noise and are wellsuited to underwater target recognition using a convolutional neural network.Compared with the combination of convolutional neural network with single acoustic feature,such as MFCC(Mel-scale Frequency Cepstral Coefficients)or LPCC(Linear Prediction Cepstral Coefficients),the combination of the ia-PNCC with a convolutional neural network offers better accuracy for underwater target recognition.

文摘The remaining useful life(RUL)estimation of bearings is critical for ensuring the reliability of mechanical systems.Owing to the rapid development of deep learning methods,a multitude of data-driven RUL estimation approaches have been proposed recently.However,the following problems remain in existing methods:1)Most network models use raw data or statistical features as input,which renders it difficult to extract complex fault-related information hidden in signals;2)for current observations,the dependence between current states is emphasized,but their complex dependence on previous states is often disregarded;3)the output of neural networks is directly used as the estimated RUL in most studies,resulting in extremely volatile prediction results that lack robustness.Hence,a novel prognostics approach is proposed based on a time-frequency representation(TFR)subsequence,three-dimensional convolutional neural network(3DCNN),and Gaussian process regression(GPR).The approach primarily comprises two aspects:construction of a health indicator(HI)using the TFR-subsequence-3DCNN model,and RUL estimation based on the GPR model.The raw signals of the bearings are converted into TFR-subsequences by continuous wavelet transform and a dislocated overlapping strategy.Subsequently,the 3DCNN is applied to extract the hidden spatiotemporal features from the TFR-subsequences and construct HIs.Finally,the RUL of the bearings is estimated using the GPR model,which can also define the probability distribution of the potential function and prediction confidence.Experiments on the PRONOSTIA platform demonstrate the superiority of the proposed TFR-subsequence-3DCNN-GPR approach.The use of degradation-related spatiotemporal features in signals is proposed herein to achieve a highly accurate bearing RUL prediction with uncertainty quantification.

文摘Oscillation detection has been a hot research topic in industries due to the high incidence of oscillation loops and their negative impact on plant profitability.Although numerous automatic detection techniques have been proposed,most of them can only address part of the practical difficulties.An oscillation is heuristically defined as a visually apparent periodic variation.However,manual visual inspection is labor-intensive and prone to missed detection.Convolutional neural networks(CNNs),inspired by animal visual systems,have been raised with powerful feature extraction capabilities.In this work,an exploration of the typical CNN models for visual oscillation detection is performed.Specifically,we tested MobileNet-V1,ShuffleNet-V2,Efficient Net-B0,and GhostNet models,and found that such a visual framework is well-suited for oscillation detection.The feasibility and validity of this framework are verified utilizing extensive numerical and industrial cases.Compared with state-of-theart oscillation detectors,the suggested framework is more straightforward and more robust to noise and mean-nonstationarity.In addition,this framework generalizes well and is capable of handling features that are not present in the training data,such as multiple oscillations and outliers.

文摘In intelligent perception and diagnosis of medical equipment,the visual and morphological changes in retinal vessels are closely related to the severity of cardiovascular diseases(e.g.,diabetes and hypertension).Intelligent auxiliary diagnosis of these diseases depends on the accuracy of the retinal vascular segmentation results.To address this challenge,we design a Dual-Branch-UNet framework,which comprises a Dual-Branch encoder structure for feature extraction based on the traditional U-Net model for medical image segmentation.To be more explicit,we utilize a novel parallel encoder made up of various convolutional modules to enhance the encoder portion of the original U-Net.Then,image features are combined at each layer to produce richer semantic data and the model’s capacity is adjusted to various input images.Meanwhile,in the lower sampling section,we give up pooling and conduct the lower sampling by convolution operation to control step size for information fusion.We also employ an attentionmodule in the decoder stage to filter the image noises so as to lessen the response of irrelevant features.Experiments are verified and compared on the DRIVE and ARIA datasets for retinal vessels segmentation.The proposed Dual-Branch-UNet has proved to be superior to other five typical state-of-the-art methods.

文摘The recent surge of mobile subscribers and user data traffic has accelerated the telecommunication sector towards the adoption of the fifth-generation (5G) mobile networks. Cloud radio access network (CRAN) is a prominent framework in the 5G mobile network to meet the above requirements by deploying low-cost and intelligent multiple distributed antennas known as remote radio heads (RRHs). However, achieving the optimal resource allocation (RA) in CRAN using the traditional approach is still challenging due to the complex structure. In this paper, we introduce the convolutional neural network-based deep Q-network (CNN-DQN) to balance the energy consumption and guarantee the user quality of service (QoS) demand in downlink CRAN. We first formulate the Markov decision process (MDP) for energy efficiency (EE) and build up a 3-layer CNN to capture the environment feature as an input state space. We then use DQN to turn on/off the RRHs dynamically based on the user QoS demand and energy consumption in the CRAN. Finally, we solve the RA problem based on the user constraint and transmit power to guarantee the user QoS demand and maximize the EE with a minimum number of active RRHs. In the end, we conduct the simulation to compare our proposed scheme with nature DQN and the traditional approach.

文摘Deep learning has been widely used in the field of mammographic image classification owing to its superiority in automatic feature extraction.However,general deep learning models cannot achieve very satisfactory classification results on mammographic images because these models are not specifically designed for mammographic images and do not take the specific traits of these images into account.To exploit the essential discriminant information of mammographic images,we propose a novel classification method based on a convolutional neural network.Specifically,the proposed method designs two branches to extract the discriminative features from mammographic images from the mediolateral oblique and craniocaudal(CC)mammographic views.The features extracted from the two-view mammographic images contain complementary information that enables breast cancer to be more easily distinguished.Moreover,the attention block is introduced to capture the channel-wise information by adjusting the weight of each feature map,which is beneficial to emphasising the important features of mammographic images.Furthermore,we add a penalty term based on the fuzzy cluster algorithm to the cross-entropy function,which improves the generalisation ability of the classification model by maximising the interclass distance and minimising the intraclass distance of the samples.The experimental results on The Digital database for Screening Mammography INbreast and MIAS mammography databases illustrate that the proposed method achieves the best classification performance and is more robust than the compared state-ofthe-art classification methods.

文摘As an important indicator for the appearance and intrinsic quality of textiles, fabric flatness is the immediate cause affecting the aesthetic appearance and performance of textiles. In this paper, the objective evaluation system of fabric flatness based on 3D scanner and convolutional neural network (CNN) is constructed by using the height data of AATCC flatness template. The 3D scanner is responsible for the collection of the height value data of the sample. The effect of different sub-sample cutting sizes, cutting offsets, and network model depths on the objective evaluation coincidence rate of multiple flatness level was studied. The experimental results show that the coincidence rate of the system reaches 98.9% when the collected sample data are cut into subsamples of 20 pixel × 20 pixel with 12 pixel cutting offsets and the 11-layer network model is selected. Finally, this scheme is used to evaluate the flatness of four real fabrics with different colors and textures. The result shows that all of the samples can achieve a higher coincidence rate, which further verifies the adaptability and stability of the objective evaluation system constructed in this paper for fabric flatness evaluation.
文摘The concept of classification through deep learning is to build a model that skillfully separates closely-related images dataset into different classes because of diminutive but continuous variations that took place in physical systems over time and effect substantially.This study has made ozone depletion identification through classification using Faster Region-Based Convolutional Neural Network(F-RCNN).The main advantage of F-RCNN is to accumulate the bounding boxes on images to differentiate the depleted and non-depleted regions.Furthermore,image classification’s primary goal is to accurately predict each minutely varied case’s targeted classes in the dataset based on ozone saturation.The permanent changes in climate are of serious concern.The leading causes beyond these destructive variations are ozone layer depletion,greenhouse gas release,deforestation,pollution,water resources contamination,and UV radiation.This research focuses on the prediction by identifying the ozone layer depletion because it causes many health issues,e.g.,skin cancer,damage to marine life,crops damage,and impacts on living being’s immune systems.We have tried to classify the ozone images dataset into two major classes,depleted and non-depleted regions,to extract the required persuading features through F-RCNN.Furthermore,CNN has been used for feature extraction in the existing literature,and those extricated diverse RoIs are passed on to the CNN for grouping purposes.It is difficult to manage and differentiate those RoIs after grouping that negatively affects the gathered results.The classification outcomes through F-RCNN approach are proficient and demonstrate that general accuracy lies between 91%to 93%in identifying climate variation through ozone concentration classification,whether the region in the image under consideration is depleted or non-depleted.Our proposed model presented 93%accuracy,and it outperforms the prevailing techniques.
文摘One of the fast-growing disease affecting women’s health seriously is breast cancer.It is highly essential to identify and detect breast cancer in the earlier stage.This paper used a novel advanced methodology than machine learning algorithms such as Deep learning algorithms to classify breast cancer accurately.Deep learning algorithms are fully automatic in learning,extracting,and classifying the features and are highly suitable for any image,from natural to medical images.Existing methods focused on using various conventional and machine learning methods for processing natural and medical images.It is inadequate for the image where the coarse structure matters most.Most of the input images are downscaled,where it is impossible to fetch all the hidden details to reach accuracy in classification.Whereas deep learning algorithms are high efficiency,fully automatic,have more learning capability using more hidden layers,fetch as much as possible hidden information from the input images,and provide an accurate prediction.Hence this paper uses AlexNet from a deep convolution neural network for classifying breast cancer in mammogram images.The performance of the proposed convolution network structure is evaluated by comparing it with the existing algorithms.
文摘A significant advantage of medical image processing is that it allows non-invasive exploration of internal anatomy in great detail.It is possible to create and study 3D models of anatomical structures to improve treatment outcomes,develop more effective medical devices,or arrive at a more accurate diagnosis.This paper aims to present a fused evolutionary algorithm that takes advantage of both whale optimization and bacterial foraging optimization to optimize feature extraction.The classification process was conducted with the aid of a convolu-tional neural network(CNN)with dual graphs.Evaluation of the performance of the fused model is carried out with various methods.In the initial input Com-puter Tomography(CT)image,150 images are pre-processed and segmented to identify cancerous and non-cancerous nodules.The geometrical,statistical,struc-tural,and texture features are extracted from the preprocessed segmented image using various methods such as Gray-level co-occurrence matrix(GLCM),Histo-gram-oriented gradient features(HOG),and Gray-level dependence matrix(GLDM).To select the optimal features,a novel fusion approach known as Whale-Bacterial Foraging Optimization is proposed.For the classification of lung cancer,dual graph convolutional neural networks have been employed.A com-parison of classification algorithms and optimization algorithms has been con-ducted.According to the evaluated results,the proposed fused algorithm is successful with an accuracy of 98.72%in predicting lung tumors,and it outper-forms other conventional approaches.

文摘The extent of the peril associated with cancer can be perceivedfrom the lack of treatment, ineffective early diagnosis techniques, and mostimportantly its fatality rate. Globally, cancer is the second leading cause ofdeath and among over a hundred types of cancer;lung cancer is the secondmost common type of cancer as well as the leading cause of cancer-relateddeaths. Anyhow, an accurate lung cancer diagnosis in a timely manner canelevate the likelihood of survival by a noticeable margin and medical imagingis a prevalent manner of cancer diagnosis since it is easily accessible to peoplearound the globe. Nonetheless, this is not eminently efficacious consideringhuman inspection of medical images can yield a high false positive rate. Ineffectiveand inefficient diagnosis is a crucial reason for such a high mortalityrate for this malady. However, the conspicuous advancements in deep learningand artificial intelligence have stimulated the development of exceedinglyprecise diagnosis systems. The development and performance of these systemsrely prominently on the data that is used to train these systems. A standardproblem witnessed in publicly available medical image datasets is the severeimbalance of data between different classes. This grave imbalance of data canmake a deep learning model biased towards the dominant class and unableto generalize. This study aims to present an end-to-end convolutional neuralnetwork that can accurately differentiate lung nodules from non-nodules andreduce the false positive rate to a bare minimum. To tackle the problem ofdata imbalance, we oversampled the data by transforming available images inthe minority class. The average false positive rate in the proposed method isa mere 1.5 percent. However, the average false negative rate is 31.76 percent.The proposed neural network has 68.66 percent sensitivity and 98.42 percentspecificity.

文摘Skin lesions detection and classification is a prominent issue and difficult even for extremely skilled dermatologists and pathologists.Skin disease is the most common disorder triggered by fungus,viruses,bacteria,allergies,etc.Skin diseases are most dangerous and may be the cause of serious damage.Therefore,it requires to diagnose it at an earlier stage,but the diagnosis therapy itself is complex and needs advanced laser and photonic therapy.This advance therapy involvesfinancial burden and some other ill effects.Therefore,it must use artificial intelligence techniques to detect and diagnose it accurately at an earlier stage.Several techniques have been proposed to detect skin disease at an earlier stage but fail to get accuracy.Therefore,the primary goal of this paper is to classify,detect and provide accurate information about skin diseases.This paper deals with the same issue by proposing a high-performance Convolution neural network(CNN)to classify and detect skin disease at an earlier stage.The complete meth-odology is explained in different folds:firstly,the skin diseases images are pre-processed with processing techniques,and secondly,the important feature of the skin images are extracted.Thirdly,the pre-processed images are analyzed at different stages using a Deep Convolution Neural Network(DCNN).The approach proposed in this paper is simple,fast,and shows accurate results up to 98%and used to detect six different disease types.

文摘This paper develops a deep learning tool based on neural processes(NPs)called the Peri-Net-Pro,to predict the crack patterns in a moving disk and classifies them according to the classification modes with quantified uncertainties.In particular,image classification and regression studies are conducted by means of convolutional neural networks(CNNs)and NPs.First,the amount and quality of the data are enhanced by using peridynamics to theoretically compensate for the problems of the finite element method(FEM)in generating crack pattern images.Second,case studies are conducted with the prototype microelastic brittle(PMB),linear peridynamic solid(LPS),and viscoelastic solid(VES)models obtained by using the peridynamic theory.The case studies are performed to classify the images by using CNNs and determine the suitability of the PMB,LBS,and VES models.Finally,a regression analysis is performed on the crack pattern images with NPs to predict the crack patterns.The regression analysis results confirm that the variance decreases when the number of epochs increases by using the NPs.The training results gradually improve,and the variance ranges decrease to less than 0.035.The main finding of this study is that the NPs enable accurate predictions,even with missing or insufficient training data.The results demonstrate that if the context points are set to the 10th,100th,300th,and 784th,the training information is deliberately omitted for the context points of the 10th,100th,and 300th,and the predictions are different when the context points are significantly lower.However,the comparison of the results of the 100th and 784th context points shows that the predicted results are similar because of the Gaussian processes in the NPs.Therefore,if the NPs are employed for training,the missing information of the training data can be supplemented to predict the results.

文摘Big health data collection and storing for further analysis is a challenging task because this knowledge is big and has many features.Several cloud-based IoT health providers have been described in the literature previously.Furthermore,there are a number of issues related to time consumed and overall network performance when it comes to big data information.In the existing method,less performed optimization algorithms were used for optimizing the data.In the proposed method,the Chaotic Cuckoo Optimization algorithm was used for feature selection,and Convolutional Support Vector Machine(CSVM)was used.The research presents a method for analyzing healthcare information that uses in future prediction.The major goal is to take a variety of data while improving efficiency and minimizing process time.The suggested method employs a hybrid method that is divided into two stages.In the first stage,it reduces the features by using the Chaotic Cuckoo Optimization algorithm with Levy flight,opposition-based learning,and distributor operator.In the second stage,CSVM is used which combines the benefits of convolutional neural network(CNN)and SVM.The CSVM modifies CNN’s convolution product to learn hidden deep inside data sources.For improved economic flexibility,greater protection,greater analytics with confidentiality,and lower operating cost,the suggested approach is built on fog computing.Overall results of the experiments show that the suggested method can minimize the number of features in the datasets,enhances the accuracy by 82%,and decrease the time of the process.

文摘The network infrastructure has evolved rapidly due to the everincreasing volume of users and data.The massive number of online devices and users has forced the network to transform and facilitate the operational necessities of consumers.Among these necessities,network security is of prime significance.Network intrusion detection systems(NIDS)are among the most suitable approaches to detect anomalies and assaults on a network.However,keeping up with the network security requirements is quite challenging due to the constant mutation in attack patterns by the intruders.This paper presents an effective and prevalent framework for NIDS by merging image processing with convolution neural networks(CNN).The proposed framework first converts non-image data from network traffic into images and then further enhances those images by using the Gabor filter.The images are then classified using a CNN classifier.To assess the efficacy of the recommended method,four benchmark datasets i.e.,CSE-CIC-IDS2018,CIC-IDS-2017,ISCX-IDS 2012,and NSL-KDD were used.The proposed approach showed higher precision in contrast with the recent work on the mentioned datasets.Further,the proposed method is compared with the recent well-known image processing methods for NIDS.

文摘In this study,an artificial intelligence-based machine vision system was developed for in-line particle size analysis during the pellet layering process.Drug-layered pellets were produced by coating microcrystalline cellulose cores with an ibuprofen-containing layering liquid until the target drug content was achieved.Drug content increases with pellet size;therefore,particle size monitoring can ensure product safety and quality.The direct imaging system,consisting of a rigid endoscope,a light source,and a high-speed camera,provides real-time information about pellet size and layer uniformity,enabling timely intervention in the case of out-of-spec products.A convolutional neural network-based instance segmentation algorithm was employed to detect particles in focus,ensuring that pellet size could be accurately determined despite the dense flow of the particles.After training the model,the performance of the developed system was assessed by analysing the particle size distribution of pellet cores with variable sizes within the 250 e850 mm size range.The endoscopic system was tested in-line at a larger scale during the drug layering of inert pellet cores.The particle size data acquired in real time with the endoscopic imaging system corresponded with the reference methods,demonstrating the feasibility of the proposed machine vision-based method as a process analytical technology tool for in-line process monitoring.
