After bilinear interpolation reduces the original image to a suitable size, an improved novel enhanced quantum representation(INEQR) is used to encode it into quantum states as the input of the HQDNN. Multi-layer parameterized quantum circuits are used as the main structure to implement feature extraction and classification. The output results of parameterized quantum circuits are converted into classical data through quantum measurements and then optimized on a classical computer. To verify the performance of the HQDNN, we conduct binary classification and three classification experiments on the MNIST(Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology) data set. In the first binary classification, the accuracy of 0 and 4 exceeds98%. Then we compare the performance of three classification with other algorithms, the results on two datasets show that the classification accuracy is higher than that of quantum deep neural network and general quantum convolutional neural network.展开更多

Initially, a nonpaxametric Probability Density Function （PDF） estimate method is introduced, to describe the scene of SAR images. And then under the Maxkov context, both the determinate PDF and the kernel estimate method axe adopted respectively, to form a primary classification. Next, the primary classification results are fused using the evidence theory in an unsupervised way to get the scene classification. Finally, a regularization step is used, in which an iterated maximum selecting approach is introduced to control the fragments and modify the errors of the classification. Use of the kernel estimate and evidence theory can describe the complicated scenes with little prior knowledge and eliminate the ambiguities of the primary classification results. Experimental results on real SAR images illustrate a rather impressive performance.展开更多

This paper presents a novel approach, named multi-level max-margin analysis （M 3 DA） for semantic classification for high-resolution satellite images. In our M 3 DA model, the maximum entropy discrimination latent Dirichlet allocation （MedLDA） model is applied to learn the topic-level features first, and then based on a bag-of-words repre- sentation of low-level local image features, the large margin nearest neighbor （LMNN） classifier is used to optimize a multiple soft label composed of word-level features （generated by SVM classifier） and topic-level features. The categorization performances on 21-class land-use dataset have demonstrated that the proposed model in multi-level max-margin scheme can distinguish different categories of land-use scenes reasonably.展开更多

Classification of Glaucoma has been an active fieldof research for the past ten years. Several approaches for Glaucoma classification areestablished, beginning with conventional segmentation methods and feature-extraction to deep-learning techniques such as Convolution Neural Networks (CNN). Incontrast, CNN classifies the input images directly using tuned parameters of convolution and pooling layers by extracting features. But, the volume of training datasetsdetermines the performance of the CNN;the model trained with small datasets,overfit issues arise. CNN has therefore developed with transfer learning. The primary aim of this study is to explore the potential of EfficientNet with transfer learning for the classification of Glaucoma. The performance of the current workcompares with other models, namely VGG16, InceptionV3, and Xception usingpublic datasets such as RIM-ONEV2 & V3, ORIGA, DRISHTI-GS1, HRF, andACRIMA. The dataset has split into training, validation, and testing with the ratioof 70:15:15. The assessment of the test dataset shows that the pre-trained EfficientNetB4 has achieved the highest performance value compared to other models listedabove. The proposed method achieved 99.38% accuracy and also better results forother metrics, such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, F1_score, Kappa score, andArea Under Curve (AUC) compared to other models.展开更多

Brain tumors can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Conventional diagnosis of a brain tumor by the radiologist is done by examining a set of images produced by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Many computer-aided detection (CAD) systems have been developed in order to help the radiologists reach their goal of correctly classifying the MRI image. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used in the classification of medical images. This paper presents a novel CAD technique for the classification of brain tumors in MRI images. The proposed system extracts features from the brain MRI images by utilizing the strong energy compactness property exhibited by the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The Wavelet features are then applied to a CNN to classify the input MRI image. Experimental results indicate that the proposed approach outperforms other commonly used methods and gives an overall accuracy of 99.3%.展开更多

文摘Skin diseases affect millions worldwide.Early detection is key to preventing disfigurement,lifelong disability,or death.Dermoscopic images acquired in primary-care settings show high intra-class visual similarity and severe class imbalance,and occasional imaging artifacts can create ambiguity for state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks(CNNs).We frame skin lesion recognition as graph-based reasoning and,to ensure fair evaluation and avoid data leakage,adopt a strict lesion-level partitioning strategy.Each image is first over-segmented using SLIC(Simple Linear Iterative Clustering)to produce perceptually homogeneous superpixels.These superpixels form the nodes of a region-adjacency graph whose edges encode spatial continuity.Node attributes are 1280-dimensional embeddings extracted with a lightweight yet expressive EfficientNet-B0 backbone,providing strong representational power at modest computational cost.The resulting graphs are processed by a five-layer Graph Attention Network(GAT)that learns to weight inter-node relationships dynamically and aggregates multi-hop context before classifying lesions into seven classes with a log-softmax output.Extensive experiments on the DermaMNIST benchmark show the proposed pipeline achieves 88.35%accuracy and 98.04%AUC,outperforming contemporary CNNs,AutoML approaches,and alternative graph neural networks.An ablation study indicates EfficientNet-B0 produces superior node descriptors compared with ResNet-18 and DenseNet,and that roughly five GAT layers strike a good balance between being too shallow and over-deep while avoiding oversmoothing.The method requires no data augmentation or external metadata,making it a drop-in upgrade for clinical computer-aided diagnosis systems.

文摘Recently,the convolutional neural network(CNN)has been dom-inant in studies on interpreting remote sensing images(RSI).However,it appears that training optimization strategies have received less attention in relevant research.To evaluate this problem,the author proposes a novel algo-rithm named the Fast Training CNN(FST-CNN).To verify the algorithm’s effectiveness,twenty methods,including six classic models and thirty archi-tectures from previous studies,are included in a performance comparison.The overall accuracy(OA)trained by the FST-CNN algorithm on the same model architecture and dataset is treated as an evaluation baseline.Results show that there is a maximal OA gap of 8.35%between the FST-CNN and those methods in the literature,which means a 10%margin in performance.Meanwhile,all those complex roadmaps,e.g.,deep feature fusion,model combination,model ensembles,and human feature engineering,are not as effective as expected.It reveals that there was systemic suboptimal perfor-mance in the previous studies.Most of the CNN-based methods proposed in the previous studies show a consistent mistake,which has made the model’s accuracy lower than its potential value.The most important reasons seem to be the inappropriate training strategy and the shift in data distribution introduced by data augmentation(DA).As a result,most of the performance evaluation was conducted based on an inaccurate,suboptimal,and unfair result.It has made most of the previous research findings questionable to some extent.However,all these confusing results also exactly demonstrate the effectiveness of FST-CNN.This novel algorithm is model-agnostic and can be employed on any image classification model to potentially boost performance.In addition,the results also show that a standardized training strategy is indeed very meaningful for the research tasks of the RSI-SC.
文摘The results of the development of the new fast-speed method of classification images using a structural approach are presented.The method is based on the system of hierarchical features,based on the bitwise data distribution for the set of descriptors of image description.The article also proposes the use of the spatial data processing apparatus,which simplifies and accelerates the classification process.Experiments have shown that the time of calculation of the relevance for two descriptions according to their distributions is about 1000 times less than for the traditional voting procedure,for which the sets of descriptors are compared.The introduction of the system of hierarchical features allows to further reduce the calculation time by 2–3 times while ensuring high efficiency of classification.The noise immunity of the method to additive noise has been experimentally studied.According to the results of the research,the marginal degree of the hierarchy of features for reliable classification with the standard deviation of noise less than 30 is the 8-bit distribution.Computing costs increase proportionally with decreasing bit distribution.The method can be used for application tasks where object identification time is critical.
文摘Total shoulder arthroplasty is a standard restorative procedure practiced by orthopedists to diagnose shoulder arthritis in which a prosthesis replaces the whole joint or a part of the joint.It is often challenging for doctors to identify the exact model and manufacturer of the prosthesis when it is unknown.This paper proposes a transfer learning-based class imbalance-aware prosthesis detection method to detect the implant’s manufacturer automatically from shoulder X-ray images.The framework of the method proposes a novel training approach and a new set of batch-normalization,dropout,and fully convolutional layers in the head network.It employs cyclical learning rates and weighting-based loss calculation mechanism.These modifications aid in faster convergence,avoid local-minima stagnation,and remove the training bias caused by imbalanced dataset.The proposed method is evaluated using seven well-known pre-trained models of VGGNet,ResNet,and DenseNet families.Experimentation is performed on a shoulder implant benchmark dataset consisting of 597 shoulder X-ray images.The proposed method improves the classification performance of all pre-trained models by 10–12%.The DenseNet-201-based variant has achieved the highest classification accuracy of 89.5%,which is 10%higher than existing methods.Further,to validate and generalize the proposed method,the existing baseline dataset is supplemented to six classes,including samples of two more implant manufacturers.Experimental results have shown average accuracy of 86.7%for the extended dataset and show the preeminence of the proposed method.

文摘In blood or bone marrow,leukemia is a form of cancer.A person with leukemia has an expansion of white blood cells(WBCs).It primarily affects children and rarely affects adults.Treatment depends on the type of leukemia and the extent to which cancer has established throughout the body.Identifying leukemia in the initial stage is vital to providing timely patient care.Medical image-analysis-related approaches grant safer,quicker,and less costly solutions while ignoring the difficulties of these invasive processes.It can be simple to generalize Computer vision(CV)-based and image-processing techniques and eradicate human error.Many researchers have implemented computer-aided diagnosticmethods andmachine learning(ML)for laboratory image analysis,hopefully overcoming the limitations of late leukemia detection and determining its subgroups.This study establishes a Marine Predators Algorithm with Deep Learning Leukemia Cancer Classification(MPADL-LCC)algorithm onMedical Images.The projectedMPADL-LCC system uses a bilateral filtering(BF)technique to pre-process medical images.The MPADL-LCC system uses Faster SqueezeNet withMarine Predators Algorithm(MPA)as a hyperparameter optimizer for feature extraction.Lastly,the denoising autoencoder(DAE)methodology can be executed to accurately detect and classify leukemia cancer.The hyperparameter tuning process using MPA helps enhance leukemia cancer classification performance.Simulation results are compared with other recent approaches concerning various measurements and the MPADL-LCC algorithm exhibits the best results over other recent approaches.

文摘The performance of scene classification of satellite images strongly relies on the discriminative power of the low-level and mid-level feature representation. This paper presents a novel approach, named multi-level max-margin analysis （M 3 DA） for semantic classification for high-resolution satellite images. In our M 3 DA model, the maximum entropy discrimination latent Dirichlet allocation （MedLDA） model is applied to learn the topic-level features first, and then based on a bag-of-words repre- sentation of low-level local image features, the large margin nearest neighbor （LMNN） classifier is used to optimize a multiple soft label composed of word-level features （generated by SVM classifier） and topic-level features. The categorization performances on 21-class land-use dataset have demonstrated that the proposed model in multi-level max-margin scheme can distinguish different categories of land-use scenes reasonably.
文摘Today, many eye diseases jeopardize our everyday lives, such as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), and Glaucoma.Glaucoma is an incurable and unavoidable eye disease that damages the vision ofoptic nerves and quality of life. Classification of Glaucoma has been an active fieldof research for the past ten years. Several approaches for Glaucoma classification areestablished, beginning with conventional segmentation methods and feature-extraction to deep-learning techniques such as Convolution Neural Networks (CNN). Incontrast, CNN classifies the input images directly using tuned parameters of convolution and pooling layers by extracting features. But, the volume of training datasetsdetermines the performance of the CNN;the model trained with small datasets,overfit issues arise. CNN has therefore developed with transfer learning. The primary aim of this study is to explore the potential of EfficientNet with transfer learning for the classification of Glaucoma. The performance of the current workcompares with other models, namely VGG16, InceptionV3, and Xception usingpublic datasets such as RIM-ONEV2 & V3, ORIGA, DRISHTI-GS1, HRF, andACRIMA. The dataset has split into training, validation, and testing with the ratioof 70:15:15. The assessment of the test dataset shows that the pre-trained EfficientNetB4 has achieved the highest performance value compared to other models listedabove. The proposed method achieved 99.38% accuracy and also better results forother metrics, such as sensitivity, specificity, precision, F1_score, Kappa score, andArea Under Curve (AUC) compared to other models.
文摘A brain tumor is a mass of abnormal cells in the brain. Brain tumors can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Conventional diagnosis of a brain tumor by the radiologist is done by examining a set of images produced by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Many computer-aided detection (CAD) systems have been developed in order to help the radiologists reach their goal of correctly classifying the MRI image. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used in the classification of medical images. This paper presents a novel CAD technique for the classification of brain tumors in MRI images. The proposed system extracts features from the brain MRI images by utilizing the strong energy compactness property exhibited by the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). The Wavelet features are then applied to a CNN to classify the input MRI image. Experimental results indicate that the proposed approach outperforms other commonly used methods and gives an overall accuracy of 99.3%.

文摘In the domain ofmedical imaging,the accurate detection and classification of brain tumors is very important.This study introduces an advanced method for identifying camouflaged brain tumors within images.Our proposed model consists of three steps:Feature extraction,feature fusion,and then classification.The core of this model revolves around a feature extraction framework that combines color-transformed images with deep learning techniques,using the ResNet50 Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)architecture.So the focus is to extract robust feature fromMRI images,particularly emphasizingweighted average features extracted fromthe first convolutional layer renowned for their discriminative power.To enhance model robustness,we introduced a novel feature fusion technique based on the Marine Predator Algorithm(MPA),inspired by the hunting behavior of marine predators and has shown promise in optimizing complex problems.The proposed methodology can accurately classify and detect brain tumors in camouflage images by combining the power of color transformations,deep learning,and feature fusion via MPA,and achieved an accuracy of 98.72%on a more complex dataset surpassing the existing state-of-the-art methods,highlighting the effectiveness of the proposed model.The importance of this research is in its potential to advance the field ofmedical image analysis,particularly in brain tumor diagnosis,where diagnoses early,and accurate classification are critical for improved patient results.

文摘Machine learning(ML)is increasingly applied for medical image processing with appropriate learning paradigms.These applications include analyzing images of various organs,such as the brain,lung,eye,etc.,to identify specific flaws/diseases for diagnosis.The primary concern of ML applications is the precise selection of flexible image features for pattern detection and region classification.Most of the extracted image features are irrelevant and lead to an increase in computation time.Therefore,this article uses an analytical learning paradigm to design a Congruent Feature Selection Method to select the most relevant image features.This process trains the learning paradigm using similarity and correlation-based features over different textural intensities and pixel distributions.The similarity between the pixels over the various distribution patterns with high indexes is recommended for disease diagnosis.Later,the correlation based on intensity and distribution is analyzed to improve the feature selection congruency.Therefore,the more congruent pixels are sorted in the descending order of the selection,which identifies better regions than the distribution.Now,the learning paradigm is trained using intensity and region-based similarity to maximize the chances of selection.Therefore,the probability of feature selection,regardless of the textures and medical image patterns,is improved.This process enhances the performance of ML applications for different medical image processing.The proposed method improves the accuracy,precision,and training rate by 13.19%,10.69%,and 11.06%,respectively,compared to other models for the selected dataset.The mean error and selection time is also reduced by 12.56%and 13.56%,respectively,compared to the same models and dataset.
文摘There is a widespread agreement that lung cancer is one of the deadliest types of cancer,affecting both women and men.As a result,detecting lung cancer at an early stage is crucial to create an accurate treatment plan and forecasting the reaction of the patient to the adopted treatment.For this reason,the development of convolutional neural networks(CNNs)for the task of lung cancer classification has recently seen a trend in attention.CNNs have great potential,but they need a lot of training data and struggle with input alterations.To address these limitations of CNNs,a novel machine-learning architecture of capsule networks has been presented,and it has the potential to completely transform the areas of deep learning.Capsule networks,which are the focus of this work,are interesting because they can withstand rotation and affine translation with relatively little training data.This research optimizes the performance of CapsNets by designing a new architecture that allows them to perform better on the challenge of lung cancer classification.The findings demonstrate that the proposed capsule network method outperforms CNNs on the lung cancer classification challenge.CapsNet with a single convolution layer and 32 features(CN-1-32),CapsNet with a single convolution layer and 64 features(CN-1-64),and CapsNet with a double convolution layer and 64 features(CN-2-64)are the three capsulel networks developed in this research for lung cancer classification.Lung nodules,both benign and malignant,are classified using these networks using CT images.The LIDC-IDRI database was utilized to assess the performance of those networks.Based on the testing results,CN-2-64 network performed better out of the three networks tested,with a specificity of 98.37%,sensitivity of 97.47%and an accuracy of 97.92%.

文摘In this paper,we propose hierarchical attention dual network(DNet)for fine-grained image classification.The DNet can randomly select pairs of inputs from the dataset and compare the differences between them through hierarchical attention feature learning,which are used simultaneously to remove noise and retain salient features.In the loss function,it considers the losses of difference in paired images according to the intra-variance and inter-variance.In addition,we also collect the disaster scene dataset from remote sensing images and apply the proposed method to disaster scene classification,which contains complex scenes and multiple types of disasters.Compared to other methods,experimental results show that the DNet with hierarchical attention is robust to different datasets and performs better.

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.
