Owing to its excellent performance in computer vision, deep learning has been applied to UAV inspection image processing tasks such as power line identification and insulator defect detection. Despite their excellent performance, electric power UAV inspection image processing models based on deep learning face several problems such as a small application scope, the need for constant retraining and optimization, and high R&D monetary and time costs due to the black-box and scene data-driven characteristics of deep learning. In this study, an automated deep learning system for electric power UAV inspection image analysis and processing is proposed as a solution to the aforementioned problems. This system design is based on the three critical design principles of generalizability, extensibility, and automation. Pre-trained models, fine-tuning (downstream task adaptation), and automated machine learning, which are closely related to these design principles, are reviewed. In addition, an automated deep learning system architecture for electric power UAV inspection image analysis and processing is presented. A prototype system was constructed and experiments were conducted on the two electric power UAV inspection image analysis and processing tasks of insulator self-detonation and bird nest recognition. The models constructed using the prototype system achieved 91.36% and 86.13% mAP for insulator self-detonation and bird nest recognition, respectively. This demonstrates that the system design concept is reasonable and the system architecture feasible .展开更多

文摘This study develops a novel cervical precancerous detection system by using texture analysis of field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM)images.The processing scheme adopted in the proposed system focused on two steps.The first step was to enhance cervical cell FE-SEM images in order to show the precancerous characterization indicator.A problem arises from the question of how to extract features which characterize cervical precancerous cells.For the first step,a preprocessing technique called intensity transformation and morphological operation(ITMO)algorithm used to enhance the quality of images was proposed.The algo-rithm consisted of contrast stretching and morphological opening operations.The second step was to characterize the cervical cells to three classes,namely normal,low grade intra-epithelial squamous lesion(LSIL),and high grade intra-epithelial squamous lesion(HSIL).To differen-tiate between normal and precancerous cells of the cervical cell FE-SEM images,human papillomavirus(HPV)contained in the surface of cells were used as indicators.In this paper,we investigated the use of texture as a tool in determining precancerous cell images based on the observation that cell images have a distinct visual texture.Gray level co-occurrences matrix(GLCM)technique was used to extract the texture features.To confirm the system's perfor-mance,the system was tested using 150 cervical cell FE-SEM images.The results showed that the accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of the proposed system are 95.7%,95.7%and 95.8%,respectively.

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.

In this system, we adopt two kinds of parallel structures controlled by RTOS for parallel processing of algorithms. The experimental results show that exploitive period of the system is short, and maintenance convenient. Thus it is suitable for real-time image processing and can get satisfactory effect of image recognition.
文摘In the period of Industries 4.0,cyber-physical systems(CPSs)were a major study area.Such systems frequently occur in manufacturing processes and people’s everyday lives,and they communicate intensely among physical elements and lead to inconsistency.Due to the magnitude and importance of the systems they support,the cyber quantum models must function effectively.In this paper,an image-processing-based anomalous mobility detecting approach is suggested that may be added to systems at any time.The expense of glitches,failures or destroyed products is decreased when anomalous activities are detected and unplanned scenarios are avoided.The presently offered techniques are not well suited to these operations,which necessitate information systems for issue treatment and classification at a degree of complexity that is distinct from technology.To overcome such challenges in industrial cyber-physical systems,the Image Processing aided Computer Vision Technology for Fault Detection System(IM-CVFD)is proposed in this research.The Uncertainty Management technique is introduced in addition to achieving optimum knowledge in terms of latency and effectiveness.A thorough simulation was performed in an appropriate processing facility.The study results suggest that the IM-CVFD has a high performance,low error frequency,low energy consumption,and low delay with a strategy that provides.In comparison to traditional approaches,the IM-CVFD produces a more efficient outcome.
文摘The Internet of Multimedia Things(IoMT)refers to a network of interconnected multimedia devices that communicate with each other over the Internet.Recently,smart healthcare has emerged as a significant application of the IoMT,particularly in the context of knowledge‐based learning systems.Smart healthcare systems leverage knowledge‐based learning to become more context‐aware,adaptable,and auditable while maintain-ing the ability to learn from historical data.In smart healthcare systems,devices capture images,such as X‐rays,Magnetic Resonance Imaging.The security and integrity of these images are crucial for the databases used in knowledge‐based learning systems to foster structured decision‐making and enhance the learning abilities of AI.Moreover,in knowledge‐driven systems,the storage and transmission of HD medical images exert a burden on the limited bandwidth of the communication channel,leading to data trans-mission delays.To address the security and latency concerns,this paper presents a lightweight medical image encryption scheme utilising bit‐plane decomposition and chaos theory.The results of the experiment yield entropy,energy,and correlation values of 7.999,0.0156,and 0.0001,respectively.This validates the effectiveness of the encryption system proposed in this paper,which offers high‐quality encryption,a large key space,key sensitivity,and resistance to statistical attacks.
