Particularly in recent years, the discovery of natural adversarial examples has posed significant challenges, as traditional defense methods against adversarial attacks have proven to be largely ineffective against these natural adversarial examples. This paper explores defenses against these natural adversarial examples from three perspectives: adversarial examples, model architecture, and dataset. First, it employs Class Activation Mapping (CAM) to visualize how models classify natural adversarial examples, identifying several typical attack patterns. Next, various common CNN models are analyzed to evaluate their susceptibility to these attacks, revealing that different architectures exhibit varying defensive capabilities. The study finds that as the depth of a network increases, its defenses against natural adversarial examples strengthen. Lastly, Finally, the impact of dataset class distribution on the defense capability of models is examined, focusing on two aspects: the number of classes in the training set and the number of predicted classes. This study investigates how these factors influence the model’s ability to defend against natural adversarial examples. Results indicate that reducing the number of training classes enhances the model’s defense against natural adversarial examples. Additionally, under a fixed number of training classes, some CNN models show an optimal range of predicted classes for achieving the best defense performance against these adversarial examples.展开更多

文摘Breast cancer is one of the major causes of deaths in women.However,the early diagnosis is important for screening and control the mortality rate.Thus for the diagnosis of breast cancer at the early stage,a computer-aided diagnosis system is highly required.Ultrasound is an important examination technique for breast cancer diagnosis due to its low cost.Recently,many learning-based techniques have been introduced to classify breast cancer using breast ultrasound imaging dataset(BUSI)datasets;however,the manual handling is not an easy process and time consuming.The authors propose an EfficientNet-integrated ResNet deep network and XAI-based framework for accurately classifying breast cancer(malignant and benign).In the initial step,data augmentation is performed to increase the number of training samples.For this purpose,three-pixel flip mathematical equations are introduced:horizontal,vertical,and 90°.Later,two pretrained deep learning models were employed,skipped some layers,and fine-tuned.Both fine-tuned models are later trained using a deep transfer learning process and extracted features from the deeper layer.Explainable artificial intelligence-based analysed the performance of trained models.After that,a new feature selection technique is proposed based on the cuckoo search algorithm called cuckoo search controlled standard error mean.This technique selects the best features and fuses using a new parallel zeropadding maximum correlated coefficient features.In the end,the selection algorithm is applied again to the fused feature vector and classified using machine learning algorithms.The experimental process of the proposed framework is conducted on a publicly available BUSI and obtained 98.4%and 98%accuracy in two different experiments.Comparing the proposed framework is also conducted with recent techniques and shows improved accuracy.In addition,the proposed framework was executed less than the original deep learning models.

文摘Accurate cloud classification plays a crucial role in aviation safety,climate monitoring,and localized weather forecasting.Current research has been focusing on machine learning techniques,particularly deep learning based model,for the types identification.However,traditional approaches such as convolutional neural networks(CNNs)encounter difficulties in capturing global contextual information.In addition,they are computationally expensive,which restricts their usability in resource-limited environments.To tackle these issues,we present the Cloud Vision Transformer(CloudViT),a lightweight model that integrates CNNs with Transformers.The integration enables an effective balance between local and global feature extraction.To be specific,CloudViT comprises two innovative modules:Feature Extraction(E_Module)and Downsampling(D_Module).These modules are able to significantly reduce the number of model parameters and computational complexity while maintaining translation invariance and enhancing contextual comprehension.Overall,the CloudViT includes 0.93×10^(6)parameters,which decreases more than ten times compared to the SOTA(State-of-the-Art)model CloudNet.Comprehensive evaluations conducted on the HBMCD and SWIMCAT datasets showcase the outstanding performance of CloudViT.It achieves classification accuracies of 98.45%and 100%,respectively.Moreover,the efficiency and scalability of CloudViT make it an ideal candidate for deployment inmobile cloud observation systems,enabling real-time cloud image classification.The proposed hybrid architecture of CloudViT offers a promising approach for advancing ground-based cloud image classification.It holds significant potential for both optimizing performance and facilitating practical deployment scenarios.

文摘Segmenting a breast ultrasound image is still challenging due to the presence of speckle noise,dependency on the operator,and the variation of image quality.This paper presents the UltraSegNet architecture that addresses these challenges through three key technical innovations:This work adds three things:(1)a changed ResNet-50 backbone with sequential 3×3 convolutions to keep fine anatomical details that are needed for finding lesion boundaries;(2)a computationally efficient regional attention mechanism that works on high-resolution features without using a transformer’s extra memory;and(3)an adaptive feature fusion strategy that changes local and global featuresbasedonhowthe image isbeing used.Extensive evaluation on two distinct datasets demonstrates UltraSegNet’s superior performance:On the BUSI dataset,it obtains a precision of 0.915,a recall of 0.908,and an F1 score of 0.911.In the UDAIT dataset,it achieves robust performance across the board,with a precision of 0.901 and recall of 0.894.Importantly,these improvements are achieved at clinically feasible computation times,taking 235 ms per image on standard GPU hardware.Notably,UltraSegNet does amazingly well on difficult small lesions(less than 10 mm),achieving a detection accuracy of 0.891.This is a huge improvement over traditional methods that have a hard time with small-scale features,as standard models can only achieve 0.63–0.71 accuracy.This improvement in small lesion detection is particularly crucial for early-stage breast cancer identification.Results from this work demonstrate that UltraSegNet can be practically deployable in clinical workflows to improve breast cancer screening accuracy.

文摘Optical and hybrid convolutional neural networks(CNNs)recently have become of increasing interest to achieve low-latency,low-power image classification,and computer-vision tasks.However,implementing optical nonlinearity is challenging,and omitting the nonlinear layers in a standard CNN comes with a significant reduction in accuracy.We use knowledge distillation to compress modified AlexNet to a single linear convolutional layer and an electronic backend(two fully connected layers).We obtain comparable performance with a purely electronic CNN with five convolutional layers and three fully connected layers.We implement the convolution optically via engineering the point spread function of an inverse-designed meta-optic.Using this hybrid approach,we estimate a reduction in multiply-accumulate operations from 17M in a conventional electronic modified AlexNet to only 86 K in the hybrid compressed network enabled by the optical front end.This constitutes over 2 orders of magnitude of reduction in latency and power consumption.Furthermore,we experimentally demonstrate that the classification accuracy of the system exceeds 93%on the MNIST dataset of handwritten digits.

文摘In hyperspectral image classification(HSIC),accurately extracting spatial and spectral information from hyperspectral images(HSI)is crucial for achieving precise classification.However,due to low spatial resolution and complex category boundary,mixed pixels containing features from multiple classes are inevitable in HSIs.Additionally,the spectral similarity among different classes challenge for extracting distinctive spectral features essential for HSIC.To address the impact of mixed pixels and spectral similarity for HSIC,we propose a central-pixel guiding sub-pixel and sub-channel convolution network(CP-SPSC)to extract more precise spatial and spectral features.Firstly,we designed spatial attention(CP-SPA)and spectral attention(CP-SPE)informed by the central pixel to effectively reduce spectral interference of irrelevant categories in the same patch.Furthermore,we use CP-SPA to guide 2D sub-pixel convolution(SPConv2d)to capture spatial features finer than the pixel level.Meanwhile,CP-SPE is also utilized to guide 1D sub-channel con-volution(SCConv1d)in selecting more precise spectral channels.For fusing spatial and spectral information at the feature-level,the spectral feature extension transformation module(SFET)adopts mirror-padding and snake permutation to transform 1D spectral information of the center pixel into 2D spectral features.Experiments on three popular datasets demonstrate that ours out-performs several state-of-the-art methods in accuracy.

文摘Multi-label image classification is a challenging task due to the diverse sizes and complex backgrounds of objects in images.Obtaining class-specific precise representations at different scales is a key aspect of feature representation.However,existing methods often rely on the single-scale deep feature,neglecting shallow and deeper layer features,which poses challenges when predicting objects of varying scales within the same image.Although some studies have explored multi-scale features,they rarely address the flow of information between scales or efficiently obtain class-specific precise representations for features at different scales.To address these issues,we propose a two-stage,three-branch Transformer-based framework.The first stage incorporates multi-scale image feature extraction and hierarchical scale attention.This design enables the model to consider objects at various scales while enhancing the flow of information across different feature scales,improving the model’s generalization to diverse object scales.The second stage includes a global feature enhancement module and a region selection module.The global feature enhancement module strengthens interconnections between different image regions,mitigating the issue of incomplete represen-tations,while the region selection module models the cross-modal relationships between image features and labels.Together,these components enable the efficient acquisition of class-specific precise feature representations.Extensive experiments on public datasets,including COCO2014,VOC2007,and VOC2012,demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.Our approach achieves consistent performance gains of 0.3%,0.4%,and 0.2%over state-of-the-art methods on the three datasets,respectively.These results validate the reliability and superiority of our approach for multi-label image classification.
文摘Skin cancer is among the most common malignancies worldwide,but its mortality burden is largely driven by aggressive subtypes such as melanoma,with outcomes varying across regions and healthcare settings.These variations emphasize the importance of reliable diagnostic technologies that support clinicians in detecting skin malignancies with higher accuracy.Traditional diagnostic methods often rely on subjective visual assessments,which can lead to misdiagnosis.This study addresses these challenges by developing HybridFusionNet,a novel model that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN)with 1D feature extraction techniques to enhance diagnostic accuracy.Utilizing two extensive datasets,BCN20000 and HAM10000,the methodology includes data preprocessing,application of Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique combined with Edited Nearest Neighbors(SMOTEENN)for data balancing,and optimization of feature selection using the Tree-based Pipeline Optimization Tool(TPOT).The results demonstrate significant performance improvements over traditional CNN models,achieving an accuracy of 0.9693 on the BCN20000 dataset and 0.9909 on the HAM10000 dataset.The HybridFusionNet model not only outperforms conventionalmethods but also effectively addresses class imbalance.To enhance transparency,it integrates post-hoc explanation techniques such as LIME,which highlight the features influencing predictions.These findings highlight the potential of HybridFusionNet to support real-world applications,including physician-assist systems,teledermatology,and large-scale skin cancer screening programs.By improving diagnostic efficiency and enabling access to expert-level analysis,the modelmay enhance patient outcomes and foster greater trust in artificial intelligence(AI)-assisted clinical decision-making.

文摘The multi-modal characteristics of mineral particles play a pivotal role in enhancing the classification accuracy,which is critical for obtaining a profound understanding of the Earth's composition and ensuring effective exploitation utilization of its resources.However,the existing methods for classifying mineral particles do not fully utilize these multi-modal features,thereby limiting the classification accuracy.Furthermore,when conventional multi-modal image classification methods are applied to planepolarized and cross-polarized sequence images of mineral particles,they encounter issues such as information loss,misaligned features,and challenges in spatiotemporal feature extraction.To address these challenges,we propose a multi-modal mineral particle polarization image classification network(MMGC-Net)for precise mineral particle classification.Initially,MMGC-Net employs a two-dimensional(2D)backbone network with shared parameters to extract features from two types of polarized images to ensure feature alignment.Subsequently,a cross-polarized intra-modal feature fusion module is designed to refine the spatiotemporal features from the extracted features of the cross-polarized sequence images.Ultimately,the inter-modal feature fusion module integrates the two types of modal features to enhance the classification precision.Quantitative and qualitative experimental results indicate that when compared with the current state-of-the-art multi-modal image classification methods,MMGC-Net demonstrates marked superiority in terms of mineral particle multi-modal feature learning and four classification evaluation metrics.It also demonstrates better stability than the existing models.

文摘At present,research on multi-label image classification mainly focuses on exploring the correlation between labels to improve the classification accuracy of multi-label images.However,in existing methods,label correlation is calculated based on the statistical information of the data.This label correlation is global and depends on the dataset,not suitable for all samples.In the process of extracting image features,the characteristic information of small objects in the image is easily lost,resulting in a low classification accuracy of small objects.To this end,this paper proposes a multi-label image classification model based on multiscale fusion and adaptive label correlation.The main idea is:first,the feature maps of multiple scales are fused to enhance the feature information of small objects.Semantic guidance decomposes the fusion feature map into feature vectors of each category,then adaptively mines the correlation between categories in the image through the self-attention mechanism of graph attention network,and obtains feature vectors containing category-related information for the final classification.The mean average precision of the model on the two public datasets of VOC 2007 and MS COCO 2014 reached 95.6% and 83.6%,respectively,and most of the indicators are better than those of the existing latest methods.
文摘In a context where urban satellite image processing technologies are undergoing rapid evolution,this article presents an innovative and rigorous approach to satellite image classification applied to urban planning.This research proposes an integrated methodological framework,based on the principles of model-driven engineering(MDE),to transform a generic meta-model into a meta-model specifically dedicated to urban satellite image classification.We implemented this transformation using the Atlas Transformation Language(ATL),guaranteeing a smooth and consistent transition from platform-independent model(PIM)to platform-specific model(PSM),according to the principles of model-driven architecture(MDA).The application of this IDM methodology enables advanced structuring of satellite data for targeted urban planning analyses,making it possible to classify various urban zones such as built-up,cultivated,arid and water areas.The novelty of this approach lies in the automation and standardization of the classification process,which significantly reduces the need for manual intervention,and thus improves the reliability,reproducibility and efficiency of urban data analysis.By adopting this method,decision-makers and urban planners are provided with a powerful tool for systematically and consistently analyzing and interpreting satellite images,facilitating decision-making in critical areas such as urban space management,infrastructure planning and environmental preservation.

文摘Carotid artery plaques represent a major contributor to the morbidity and mortality associated with cerebrovascular disease,and their clinical significance is largely determined by the risk linked to plaque vulnerability.Therefore,classifying plaque risk constitutes one of themost critical tasks in the clinicalmanagement of this condition.While classification models derived from individual medical centers have been extensively investigated,these singlecenter models often fail to generalize well to multi-center data due to variations in ultrasound images caused by differences in physician expertise and equipment.To address this limitation,a Dual-Classifier Label Correction Networkmodel(DCLCN)is proposed for the classification of carotid plaque ultrasound images acrossmultiplemedical centers.TheDCLCNdesigns amulti-center domain adaptationmodule that leverages a dual-classifier strategy to extract knowledge from both source and target centers,thereby reducing feature discrepancies through a domain adaptation layer.Additionally,to mitigate the impact of image noise,a label modeling and correction module is introduced to generate pseudo-labels for the target centers and iteratively refine them using an end-to-end correction mechanism.Experiments on the carotid plaque dataset collected fromthreemedical centers demonstrate that the DCLCN achieves commendable performance and robustness.
文摘Medical image classification is crucial in disease diagnosis,treatment planning,and clinical decisionmaking.We introduced a novel medical image classification approach that integrates Bayesian Random Semantic Data Augmentation(BSDA)with a Vision Mamba-based model for medical image classification(MedMamba),enhanced by residual connection blocks,we named the model BSDA-Mamba.BSDA augments medical image data semantically,enhancing the model’s generalization ability and classification performance.MedMamba,a deep learning-based state space model,excels in capturing long-range dependencies in medical images.By incorporating residual connections,BSDA-Mamba further improves feature extraction capabilities.Through comprehensive experiments on eight medical image datasets,we demonstrate that BSDA-Mamba outperforms existing models in accuracy,area under the curve,and F1-score.Our results highlight BSDA-Mamba’s potential as a reliable tool for medical image analysis,particularly in handling diverse imaging modalities from X-rays to MRI.The open-sourcing of our model’s code and datasets,will facilitate the reproduction and extension of our work.
文摘The emergence of adversarial examples has revealed the inadequacies in the robustness of image classification models based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Particularly in recent years, the discovery of natural adversarial examples has posed significant challenges, as traditional defense methods against adversarial attacks have proven to be largely ineffective against these natural adversarial examples. This paper explores defenses against these natural adversarial examples from three perspectives: adversarial examples, model architecture, and dataset. First, it employs Class Activation Mapping (CAM) to visualize how models classify natural adversarial examples, identifying several typical attack patterns. Next, various common CNN models are analyzed to evaluate their susceptibility to these attacks, revealing that different architectures exhibit varying defensive capabilities. The study finds that as the depth of a network increases, its defenses against natural adversarial examples strengthen. Lastly, Finally, the impact of dataset class distribution on the defense capability of models is examined, focusing on two aspects: the number of classes in the training set and the number of predicted classes. This study investigates how these factors influence the model’s ability to defend against natural adversarial examples. Results indicate that reducing the number of training classes enhances the model’s defense against natural adversarial examples. Additionally, under a fixed number of training classes, some CNN models show an optimal range of predicted classes for achieving the best defense performance against these adversarial examples.

文摘Mudflat vegetation plays a crucial role in the ecological function of wetland environment,and obtaining its fine spatial distri-bution is of great significance for wetland protection and management.Remote sensing techniques can realize the rapid extraction of wetland vegetation over a large area.However,the imaging of optical sensors is easily restricted by weather conditions,and the backs-cattered information reflected by Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR)images is easily disturbed by many factors.Although both data sources have been applied in wetland vegetation classification,there is a lack of comparative study on how the selection of data sources affects the classification effect.This study takes the vegetation of the tidal flat wetland in Chongming Island,Shanghai,China,in 2019,as the research subject.A total of 22 optical feature parameters and 11 SAR feature parameters were extracted from the optical data source(Sentinel-2)and SAR data source(Sentinel-1),respectively.The performance of optical and SAR data and their feature paramet-ers in wetland vegetation classification was quantitatively compared and analyzed by different feature combinations.Furthermore,by simulating the scenario of missing optical images,the impact of optical image missing on vegetation classification accuracy and the compensatory effect of integrating SAR data were revealed.Results show that:1)under the same classification algorithm,the Overall Accuracy(OA)of the combined use of optical and SAR images was the highest,reaching 95.50%.The OA of using only optical images was slightly lower,while using only SAR images yields the lowest accuracy,but still achieved 86.48%.2)Compared to using the spec-tral reflectance of optical data and the backscattering coefficient of SAR data directly,the constructed optical and SAR feature paramet-ers contributed to improving classification accuracy.The inclusion of optical(vegetation index,spatial texture,and phenology features)and SAR feature parameters(SAR index and SAR texture features)in the classification algorithm resulted in an OA improvement of 4.56%and 9.47%,respectively.SAR backscatter,SAR index,optical phenological features,and vegetation index were identified as the top-ranking important features.3)When the optical data were missing continuously for six months,the OA dropped to a minimum of 41.56%.However,when combined with SAR data,the OA could be improved to 71.62%.This indicates that the incorporation of SAR features can effectively compensate for the loss of accuracy caused by optical image missing,especially in regions with long-term cloud cover.

文摘The cleanliness of seed cotton plays a critical role in the pre-treatment of cotton textiles,and the removal of impurity during the harvesting process directly determines the quality and market value of cotton textiles.By fusing band combination optimization with deep learning,this study aims to achieve more efficient and accurate detection of film impurities in seed cotton on the production line.By applying hyperspectral imaging and a one-dimensional deep learning algorithm,we detect and classify impurities in seed cotton after harvest.The main categories detected include pure cotton,conveyor belt,film covering seed cotton,and film adhered to the conveyor belt.The proposed method achieves an impurity detection rate of 99.698%.To further ensure the feasibility and practical application potential of this strategy,we compare our results against existing mainstream methods.In addition,the model shows excellent recognition performance on pseudo-color images of real samples.With a processing time of 11.764μs per pixel from experimental data,it shows a much improved speed requirement while maintaining the accuracy of real production lines.This strategy provides an accurate and efficient method for removing impurities during cotton processing.
