In this work, we propose an efficient technique to utilize pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures to extract powerful features from images for object recognition purposes. We have built on the existing concept of extending the learning from pre-trained CNNs to new databases through activations by proposing to consider multiple deep layers. We have exploited the progressive learning that happens at the various intermediate layers of the CNNs to construct Deep Multi-Layer (DM-L) based Feature Extraction vectors to achieve excellent object recognition performance. Two popular pre-trained CNN architecture models i.e. the VGG_16 and VGG_19 have been used in this work to extract the feature sets from 3 deep fully connected multiple layers namely “fc6”, “fc7” and “fc8” from inside the models for object recognition purposes. Using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique, the Dimensionality of the DM-L feature vectors has been reduced to form powerful feature vectors that have been fed to an external Classifier Ensemble for classification instead of the Softmax based classification layers of the two original pre-trained CNN models. The proposed DM-L technique has been applied to the Benchmark Caltech-101 object recognition database. Conventional wisdom may suggest that feature extractions based on the deepest layer i.e. “fc8” compared to “fc6” will result in the best recognition performance but our results have proved it otherwise for the two considered models. Our experiments have revealed that for the two models under consideration, the “fc6” based feature vectors have achieved the best recognition performance. State-of-the-Art recognition performances of 91.17% and 91.35% have been achieved by utilizing the “fc6” based feature vectors for the VGG_16 and VGG_19 models respectively. The recognition performance has been achieved by considering 30 sample images per class whereas the proposed system is capable of achieving improved performance by considering all sample images per class. Our research shows that for feature extraction based on CNNs, multiple layers should be considered and then the best layer can be selected that maximizes the recognition performance.展开更多

N...Recent advances in convolution neural network (CNN) have fostered the progress in object recognition and semantic segmentation, which in turn has improved the performance of hyperspectral image (HSI) classification. Nevertheless, the difficulty of high dimensional feature extraction and the shortage of small training samples seriously hinder the future development of HSI classification. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for HSI classification based on three-dimensional (3D) CNN and a feature pyramid network (FPN), called 3D-FPN. The framework contains a principle component analysis, a feature extraction structure and a logistic regression. Specifically, the FPN built with 3D convolutions not only retains the advantages of 3D convolution to fully extract the spectral-spatial feature maps, but also concentrates on more detailed information and performs multi-scale feature fusion. This method avoids the excessive complexity of the model and is suitable for small sample hyperspectral classification with varying categories and spatial resolutions. In order to test the performance of our proposed 3D-FPN method, rigorous experimental analysis was performed on three public hyperspectral data sets and hyperspectral data of GF-5 satellite. Quantitative and qualitative results indicated that our proposed method attained the best performance among other current state-of-the-art end-to-end deep learning-based methods.展开更多

The greatest challenge in the fight to eradicate this pandemic remains its early detection. Traditional methods of swollen shoot detection are mostly based on visual observations, leading to late detection and/or diagnostic errors. The use of machine learning algorithms is now an alternative for effective plant disease detection. It is therefore crucial to provide efficient solutions to farmers’ cooperatives. In our study, we built a database of healthy and diseased cocoa leaves. We then explored the power of feature extractors based on convolutional neural networks such as VGG 19, Inception V3, DenseNet 201, and a custom CNN, combining their strengths with the XGBOOST classifier. The results of our experiments showed that this fusion of methods with XGBOOST yielded highly promising scores, outperforming the results of algorithms using the sigmoid function. These results were further consolidated by the use of evaluation metrics such as accuracy, mean squared error, F score, recall, and Matthews’s correlation coefficient. The proposed approach, combining state of the art feature extractors and the XGBOOST classifier, offers an efficient and reliable solution for the early detection of swollen shoot. Its implementation could significantly assist West African cocoa farmers in combating this devastating disease and preserving their crops.展开更多

文摘Hematoxylin and Eosin(H&E)images,popularly used in the field of digital pathology,often pose challenges due to their limited color richness,hindering the differentiation of subtle cell features crucial for accurate classification.Enhancing the visibility of these elusive cell features helps train robust deep-learning models.However,the selection and application of image processing techniques for such enhancement have not been systematically explored in the research community.To address this challenge,we introduce Salient Features Guided Augmentation(SFGA),an approach that strategically integrates machine learning and image processing.SFGA utilizes machine learning algorithms to identify crucial features within cell images,subsequently mapping these features to appropriate image processing techniques to enhance training images.By emphasizing salient features and aligning them with corresponding image processing methods,SFGA is designed to enhance the discriminating power of deep learning models in cell classification tasks.Our research undertakes a series of experiments,each exploring the performance of different datasets and data enhancement techniques in classifying cell types,highlighting the significance of data quality and enhancement in mitigating overfitting and distinguishing cell characteristics.Specifically,SFGA focuses on identifying tumor cells from tissue for extranodal extension detection,with the SFGA-enhanced dataset showing notable advantages in accuracy.We conducted a preliminary study of five experiments,among which the accuracy of the pleomorphism experiment improved significantly from 50.81%to 95.15%.The accuracy of the other four experiments also increased,with improvements ranging from 3 to 43 percentage points.Our preliminary study shows the possibilities to enhance the diagnostic accuracy of deep learning models and proposes a systematic approach that could enhance cancer diagnosis,contributing as a first step in using SFGA in medical image enhancement.
文摘Photovoltaic(PV)boards are a perfect way to create eco-friendly power from daylight.The defects in the PV panels are caused by various conditions;such defective PV panels need continuous monitoring.The recent development of PV panel monitoring systems provides a modest and viable approach to monitoring and managing the condition of the PV plants.In general,conventional procedures are used to identify the faulty modules earlier and to avoid declines in power generation.The existing deep learning architectures provide the required output to predict the faulty PV panels with less accuracy and a more time-consuming process.To increase the accuracy and to reduce the processing time,a new Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)architecture is required.Hence,in the present work,a new Real-time Multi Variant Deep learning Model(RMVDM)architecture is proposed,and it extracts the image features and classifies the defects in PV panels quickly with high accuracy.The defects that arise in the PV panels are identified by the CNN based RMVDM using RGB images.The biggest difference between CNN and its predecessors is that CNN automatically extracts the image features without any help from a person.The technique is quantitatively assessed and compared with existing faulty PV board identification approaches on the large real-time dataset.The results show that 98%of the accuracy and recall values in the fault detection and classification process.
文摘This paper proposes a novel open set recognition method,the Spatial Distribution Feature Extraction Network(SDFEN),to address the problem of electromagnetic signal recognition in an open environment.The spatial distribution feature extraction layer in SDFEN replaces convolutional output neural networks with the spatial distribution features that focus more on inter-sample information by incorporating class center vectors.The designed hybrid loss function considers both intra-class distance and inter-class distance,thereby enhancing the similarity among samples of the same class and increasing the dissimilarity between samples of different classes during training.Consequently,this method allows unknown classes to occupy a larger space in the feature space.This reduces the possibility of overlap with known class samples and makes the boundaries between known and unknown samples more distinct.Additionally,the feature comparator threshold can be used to reject unknown samples.For signal open set recognition,seven methods,including the proposed method,are applied to two kinds of electromagnetic signal data:modulation signal and real-world emitter.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the other six methods overall in a simulated open environment.Specifically,compared to the state-of-the-art Openmax method,the novel method achieves up to 8.87%and 5.25%higher micro-F-measures,respectively.

文摘The prediction of particles less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter(PM2.5)in fog and haze has been paid more and more attention,but the prediction accuracy of the results is not ideal.Haze prediction algorithms based on traditional numerical and statistical prediction have poor effects on nonlinear data prediction of haze.In order to improve the effects of prediction,this paper proposes a haze feature extraction and pollution level identification pre-warning algorithm based on feature selection and integrated learning.Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance method is used to extract low-level features of haze,and deep confidence network is utilized to extract high-level features.eXtreme Gradient Boosting algorithm is adopted to fuse low-level and high-level features,as well as predict haze.Establish PM2.5 concentration pollution grade classification index,and grade the forecast data.The expert experience knowledge is utilized to assist the optimization of the pre-warning results.The experiment results show the presented algorithm can get better prediction effects than the results of Support Vector Machine(SVM)and Back Propagation(BP)widely used at present,the accuracy has greatly improved compared with SVM and BP.

文摘Machine learning tasks such as image classification need to select the features that can describe the image well.The image has individual features and common features,and they are interdependent.If only the individual features of the image are emphasized,the neural network is prone to overfitting.If only the common features of images are emphasized,neural networks will not be able to adapt to diversified learning environments.In order to better integrate individual features and common features,based on skeleton and edge individual features extraction,this paper designed a mixed feature extraction method based on reso-nancefiltering,named resonance layer.Resonance layer is in front of the neural network input layer,using K3M algorithm to extract image skeleton,using the Canny algorithm to extract image border,using resonancefiltering to reconstruct training image byfiltering image noise,through the common features of the images in the training set and efficient expression of individual characteristics to improve the efficiency of feature extraction of neural network,so as to improve the accuracy of neural network prediction.Taking the fully connected neural net-work and LeNet-5 neural networks for example,the experiment on handwritten digits database shows that the proposed mixed feature extraction method can improve the accuracy of training whilefiltering out part of image noise data.
文摘Deep Learning is a powerful technique that is widely applied to Image Recognition and Natural Language Processing tasks amongst many other tasks. In this work, we propose an efficient technique to utilize pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures to extract powerful features from images for object recognition purposes. We have built on the existing concept of extending the learning from pre-trained CNNs to new databases through activations by proposing to consider multiple deep layers. We have exploited the progressive learning that happens at the various intermediate layers of the CNNs to construct Deep Multi-Layer (DM-L) based Feature Extraction vectors to achieve excellent object recognition performance. Two popular pre-trained CNN architecture models i.e. the VGG_16 and VGG_19 have been used in this work to extract the feature sets from 3 deep fully connected multiple layers namely “fc6”, “fc7” and “fc8” from inside the models for object recognition purposes. Using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique, the Dimensionality of the DM-L feature vectors has been reduced to form powerful feature vectors that have been fed to an external Classifier Ensemble for classification instead of the Softmax based classification layers of the two original pre-trained CNN models. The proposed DM-L technique has been applied to the Benchmark Caltech-101 object recognition database. Conventional wisdom may suggest that feature extractions based on the deepest layer i.e. “fc8” compared to “fc6” will result in the best recognition performance but our results have proved it otherwise for the two considered models. Our experiments have revealed that for the two models under consideration, the “fc6” based feature vectors have achieved the best recognition performance. State-of-the-Art recognition performances of 91.17% and 91.35% have been achieved by utilizing the “fc6” based feature vectors for the VGG_16 and VGG_19 models respectively. The recognition performance has been achieved by considering 30 sample images per class whereas the proposed system is capable of achieving improved performance by considering all sample images per class. Our research shows that for feature extraction based on CNNs, multiple layers should be considered and then the best layer can be selected that maximizes the recognition performance.

文摘Considering that the algorithm accuracy of the traditional sparse representation models is not high under the influence of multiple complex environmental factors,this study focuses on the improvement of feature extraction and model construction.Firstly,the convolutional neural network(CNN)features of the face are extracted by the trained deep learning network.Next,the steady-state and dynamic classifiers for face recognition are constructed based on the CNN features and Haar features respectively,with two-stage sparse representation introduced in the process of constructing the steady-state classifier and the feature templates with high reliability are dynamically selected as alternative templates from the sparse representation template dictionary constructed using the CNN features.Finally,the results of face recognition are given based on the classification results of the steady-state classifier and the dynamic classifier together.Based on this,the feature weights of the steady-state classifier template are adjusted in real time and the dictionary set is dynamically updated to reduce the probability of irrelevant features entering the dictionary set.The average recognition accuracy of this method is 94.45%on the CMU PIE face database and 96.58%on the AR face database,which is significantly improved compared with that of the traditional face recognition methods.

文摘Recent advances in convolution neural network (CNN) have fostered the progress in object recognition and semantic segmentation, which in turn has improved the performance of hyperspectral image (HSI) classification. Nevertheless, the difficulty of high dimensional feature extraction and the shortage of small training samples seriously hinder the future development of HSI classification. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for HSI classification based on three-dimensional (3D) CNN and a feature pyramid network (FPN), called 3D-FPN. The framework contains a principle component analysis, a feature extraction structure and a logistic regression. Specifically, the FPN built with 3D convolutions not only retains the advantages of 3D convolution to fully extract the spectral-spatial feature maps, but also concentrates on more detailed information and performs multi-scale feature fusion. This method avoids the excessive complexity of the model and is suitable for small sample hyperspectral classification with varying categories and spatial resolutions. In order to test the performance of our proposed 3D-FPN method, rigorous experimental analysis was performed on three public hyperspectral data sets and hyperspectral data of GF-5 satellite. Quantitative and qualitative results indicated that our proposed method attained the best performance among other current state-of-the-art end-to-end deep learning-based methods.
文摘Among all the plagues threatening cocoa cultivation in general, and particularly in West Africa, the swollen shoot viral disease is currently the most dangerous. The greatest challenge in the fight to eradicate this pandemic remains its early detection. Traditional methods of swollen shoot detection are mostly based on visual observations, leading to late detection and/or diagnostic errors. The use of machine learning algorithms is now an alternative for effective plant disease detection. It is therefore crucial to provide efficient solutions to farmers’ cooperatives. In our study, we built a database of healthy and diseased cocoa leaves. We then explored the power of feature extractors based on convolutional neural networks such as VGG 19, Inception V3, DenseNet 201, and a custom CNN, combining their strengths with the XGBOOST classifier. The results of our experiments showed that this fusion of methods with XGBOOST yielded highly promising scores, outperforming the results of algorithms using the sigmoid function. These results were further consolidated by the use of evaluation metrics such as accuracy, mean squared error, F score, recall, and Matthews’s correlation coefficient. The proposed approach, combining state of the art feature extractors and the XGBOOST classifier, offers an efficient and reliable solution for the early detection of swollen shoot. Its implementation could significantly assist West African cocoa farmers in combating this devastating disease and preserving their crops.
