With the characteristics of local connectivity, pooling and weight sharing,a six-layer CNNs structure is used to demodulate and eliminate ISI. The results showthat with the symbol rate of 1. 07 k Bd, the bandwidth of the band-pass filter（ BPF） in a transmitter of 1 k Hz and the changing number of carrier cycles in a symbol K = 5,10,15,28, the overall bit error ratio（ BER） performance of CNNs with single-symbol decision is superior to that with a doublesymbol united-decision. In addition, the BER performance of single-symbol decision is approximately 0. 5 d B better than that of the coherent demodulator while K equals the total number of carrier circles in a symbol, i. e., K = N = 28. With the symbol rate of 1. 07 k Bd, the bandwidth of BPF in a transmitter of 500 Hz and K = 5,10,15,28, the overall BER performance of CNNs with double-symbol united-decision is superior to those with single-symbol decision. Moreover, the double-symbol uniteddecision method is approximately 0. 5 to 1. 5 d B better than that of the coherent demodulator while K = N = 28. The demodulators based on CNNs successfully solve the serious ISI problems generated during the transmission of FTN rate bipolar EBPSK signals, which is beneficial for the improvement of spectrum efficiency.展开更多

文摘To enhance the inference efficiency of convolutional neural network(CNN),tensor parallelism is employed to improve the parallelism within operators.However,existing methods are customized to specific networks and hardware,limiting their generalizability.This paper proposes an approach called resource-adaptive tensor decomposition(RATD)for CNN operators,which aims to achieve an optimal match between computational resources and parallel computing tasks.Firstly,CNN is represented with fine-grained tensors at the lower graph level,thereby decoupling tensors that can be computed in parallel within operators.Secondly,the convolution and pooling operators are fused,and the decoupled tensor blocks are scheduled in parallel.Finally,a cost model is constructed,based on runtime and resource utilization,to iteratively refine the process of tensor block decomposition and automatically determine the optimal tensor decomposition.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed RATD improves the accuracy of the model by 11%.Compared with CUDA(compute unified device architecture)deep neural network library(cuDNN),RATD achieves an average speedup ratio of 1.21 times in inference time across various convolution kernels,along with a 12%increase in computational resource utilization.

文摘Breast Cancer(BC)remains a leadingmalignancy among women,resulting in highmortality rates.Early and accurate detection is crucial for improving patient outcomes.Traditional diagnostic tools,while effective,have limitations that reduce their accessibility and accuracy.This study investigates the use ofConvolutionalNeuralNetworks(CNNs)to enhance the diagnostic process of BC histopathology.Utilizing the BreakHis dataset,which contains thousands of histopathological images,we developed a CNN model designed to improve the speed and accuracy of image analysis.Our CNN architecture was designed with multiple convolutional layers,max-pooling layers,and a fully connected network optimized for feature extraction and classification.Hyperparameter tuning was conducted to identify the optimal learning rate,batch size,and number of epochs,ensuring robust model performance.The dataset was divided into training(80%),validation(10%),and testing(10%)subsets,with performance evaluated using accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score metrics.Our CNN model achieved a magnification-independent accuracy of 97.72%,with specific accuracies of 97.50%at 40×,97.61%at 100×,99.06%at 200×,and 97.25%at 400×magnification levels.These results demonstrate the model’s superior performance relative to existing methods.The integration of CNNs in diagnostic workflows can potentially reduce pathologist workload,minimize interpretation errors,and increase the availability of diagnostic testing,thereby improving BC management and patient survival rates.This study highlights the effectiveness of deep learning in automating BC histopathological classification and underscores the potential for AI-driven diagnostic solutions to improve patient care.

文摘Developing an accurate and efficient comprehensive water quality prediction model and its assessment method is crucial for the prevention and control of water pollution.Deep learning(DL),as one of the most promising technologies today,plays a crucial role in the effective assessment of water body health,which is essential for water resource management.This study models using both the original dataset and a dataset augmented with Generative Adversarial Networks(GAN).It integrates optimization algorithms(OA)with Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN)to propose a comprehensive water quality model evaluation method aiming at identifying the optimal models for different pollutants.Specifically,after preprocessing the spectral dataset,data augmentation was conducted to obtain two datasets.Then,six new models were developed on these datasets using particle swarm optimization(PSO),genetic algorithm(GA),and simulated annealing(SA)combined with CNN to simulate and forecast the concentrations of three water pollutants:Chemical Oxygen Demand(COD),Total Nitrogen(TN),and Total Phosphorus(TP).Finally,seven model evaluation methods,including uncertainty analysis,were used to evaluate the constructed models and select the optimal models for the three pollutants.The evaluation results indicate that the GPSCNN model performed best in predicting COD and TP concentrations,while the GGACNN model excelled in TN concentration prediction.Compared to existing technologies,the proposed models and evaluation methods provide a more comprehensive and rapid approach to water body prediction and assessment,offering new insights and methods for water pollution prevention and control.

文摘Background:Convolutional neural networks(CNN)have achieved remarkable success in medical image analysis.However,unlike some general-domain tasks where model accuracy is paramount,medical applications demand both accuracy and explainability due to the high stakes affecting patients'lives.Based on model explanations,clinicians can evaluate the diagnostic decisions suggested by CNN.Nevertheless,prior explainable artificial intelligence methods treat medical image tasks akin to general vision tasks,following end-to-end paradigms to generate explanations and frequently overlooking crucial clinical domain knowledge.Methods:We propose a plug-and-play module that explicitly integrates anatomic boundary information into the explanation process for CNN-based thoracopathy classifiers.To generate the anatomic boundary of the lung parenchyma,we utilize a lung segmentation model developed on external public datasets and deploy it on the unseen target dataset to constrain model ex-planations within the lung parenchyma for the clinical task of thoracopathy classification.Results:Assessed by the intersection over union and dice similarity coefficient between model-extracted explanations and expert-annotated lesion areas,our method consistently outperformed the baseline devoid of clinical domain knowledge in 71 out of 72 scenarios,encompassing 3 CNN architectures(VGG-11,ResNet-18,and AlexNet),2 classification settings(binary and multi-label),3 explanation methods(Saliency Map,Grad-CAM,and Integrated Gradients),and 4 co-occurred thoracic diseases(Atelectasis,Fracture,Mass,and Pneumothorax).Conclusions:We underscore the effectiveness of leveraging radiology knowledge in improving model explanations for CNN and envisage that it could inspire future efforts to integrate clinical domain knowledge into medical image analysis.
文摘Enabling high mobility applications in millimeter wave(mmWave)based systems opens up a slew of new possibilities,including vehicle communi-cations in addition to wireless virtual/augmented reality.The narrow beam usage in addition to the millimeter waves sensitivity might block the coverage along with the reliability of the mobile links.In this research work,the improvement in the quality of experience faced by the user for multimedia-related applications over the millimeter-wave band is investigated.The high attenuation loss in high frequencies is compensated with a massive array structure named Multiple Input and Multiple Output(MIMO)which is utilized in a hyperdense environment called heterogeneous networks(HetNet).The optimization problem which arises while maximizing the Mean Opinion Score(MOS)is analyzed along with the QoE(Quality of Experience)metric by considering the Base Station(BS)powers in addition to the needed Quality of Service(QoS).Most of the approaches related to wireless network communication are not suitable for the millimeter-wave band because of its problems due to high complexity and its dynamic nature.Hence a deep reinforcement learning framework is developed for tackling the same opti-mization problem.In this work,a Fuzzy-based Deep Convolutional Neural Net-work(FDCNN)is proposed in addition to a Deep Reinforcing Learning Framework(DRLF)for extracting the features of highly correlated data.The investigational results prove that the proposed method yields the highest satisfac-tion to the user by increasing the number of antennas in addition with the small-scale antennas at the base stations.The proposed work outperforms in terms of MOS with multiple antennas.

文摘A demodulator based on convolutional neural networks（ CNNs） is proposed to demodulate bipolar extended binary phase shifting keying（ EBPSK） signals transmitted at a faster-thanNyquist（ FTN） rate, solving the problem of severe inter symbol interference（ ISI） caused by FTN rate signals. With the characteristics of local connectivity, pooling and weight sharing,a six-layer CNNs structure is used to demodulate and eliminate ISI. The results showthat with the symbol rate of 1. 07 k Bd, the bandwidth of the band-pass filter（ BPF） in a transmitter of 1 k Hz and the changing number of carrier cycles in a symbol K = 5,10,15,28, the overall bit error ratio（ BER） performance of CNNs with single-symbol decision is superior to that with a doublesymbol united-decision. In addition, the BER performance of single-symbol decision is approximately 0. 5 d B better than that of the coherent demodulator while K equals the total number of carrier circles in a symbol, i. e., K = N = 28. With the symbol rate of 1. 07 k Bd, the bandwidth of BPF in a transmitter of 500 Hz and K = 5,10,15,28, the overall BER performance of CNNs with double-symbol united-decision is superior to those with single-symbol decision. Moreover, the double-symbol uniteddecision method is approximately 0. 5 to 1. 5 d B better than that of the coherent demodulator while K = N = 28. The demodulators based on CNNs successfully solve the serious ISI problems generated during the transmission of FTN rate bipolar EBPSK signals, which is beneficial for the improvement of spectrum efficiency.
文摘Nowadays,the amount of wed data is increasing at a rapid speed,which presents a serious challenge to the web monitoring.Text sentiment analysis,an important research topic in the area of natural language processing,is a crucial task in the web monitoring area.The accuracy of traditional text sentiment analysis methods might be degraded in dealing with mass data.Deep learning is a hot research topic of the artificial intelligence in the recent years.By now,several research groups have studied the sentiment analysis of English texts using deep learning methods.In contrary,relatively few works have so far considered the Chinese text sentiment analysis toward this direction.In this paper,a method for analyzing the Chinese text sentiment is proposed based on the convolutional neural network(CNN)in deep learning in order to improve the analysis accuracy.The feature values of the CNN after the training process are nonuniformly distributed.In order to overcome this problem,a method for normalizing the feature values is proposed.Moreover,the dimensions of the text features are optimized through simulations.Finally,a method for updating the learning rate in the training process of the CNN is presented in order to achieve better performances.Experiment results on the typical datasets indicate that the accuracy of the proposed method can be improved compared with that of the traditional supervised machine learning methods,e.g.,the support vector machine method.

文摘Fault diagnosis is vital in manufacturing system.However,the first step of the traditional fault diagnosis method is to process the signal,extract the features and then put the features into a selected classifier for classification.The process of feature extraction depends on the experimenters’experience,and the classification rate of the shallow diagnostic model does not achieve satisfactory results.In view of these problems,this paper proposes a method of converting raw signals into twodimensional images.This method can extract the features of the converted two-dimensional images and eliminate the impact of expert’s experience on the feature extraction process.And it follows by proposing an intelligent diagnosis algorithm based on Convolution Neural Network(CNN),which can automatically accomplish the process of the feature extraction and fault diagnosis.The effect of this method is verified by bearing data.The influence of different sample sizes and different load conditions on the diagnostic capability of this method is analyzed.The results show that the proposed method is effective and can meet the timeliness requirements of fault diagnosis.

文摘Palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition are two emerging biometrics technologies.In the past two decades,many traditional methods have been proposed for palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition,and have achieved impressive results.However,the research on deep learningbased palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition is still very preliminary.In this paper,in order to investigate the problem of deep learning based 2D and 3D palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition indepth,we conduct performance evaluation of seventeen representative and classic convolutional neural networks(CNNs)on one 3D palmprint database,five 2D palmprint databases and two palm vein databases.A lot of experiments have been carried out in the conditions of different network structures,different learning rates,and different numbers of network layers.We have also conducted experiments on both separate data mode and mixed data mode.Experimental results show that these classic CNNs can achieve promising recognition results,and the recognition performance of recently proposed CNNs is better.Particularly,among classic CNNs,one of the recently proposed classic CNNs,i.e.,EfficientNet achieves the best recognition accuracy.However,the recognition performance of classic CNNs is still slightly worse than that of some traditional recognition methods.
