In this paper, rough set classification (RSC), a modern learning algorithm, is used to rank the features extracted for detecting intrusions and generate intrusion detection models. Feature ranking is a very critical step when building the model. RSC performs feature ranking before generating rules, and converts the feature ranking to minimal hitting set problem addressed by using genetic algorithm (GA). This is done in classical approaches using Support Vector Machine (SVM) by executing many iterations, each of which removes one useless feature. Compared with those methods, our method can avoid many iterations. In addition, a hybrid genetic algorithm is proposed to increase the convergence speed and decrease the training time of RSC. The models generated by RSC take the form of'IF-THEN' rules, which have the advantage of explication. Tests and comparison of RSC with SVM on DARPA benchmark data showed that for Probe and DoS attacks both RSC and SVM yielded highly accurate results (greater than 99% accuracy on testing set).展开更多

We aim to develop a fully automatic system to detect and classify breast lesions using multiple contrast-enhanced mammography(CEM) images.Methods: In this study, a total of 1,903 females who underwent CEM examination from three hospitals were enrolled as the training set, internal testing set, pooled external testing set and prospective testing set. Here we developed a CEM-based multiprocess detection and classification system(MDCS) to perform the task of detection and classification of breast lesions. In this system, we introduced an innovative auxiliary feature fusion(AFF)algorithm that could intelligently incorporates multiple types of information from CEM images. The average freeresponse receiver operating characteristic score(AFROC-Score) was presented to validate system’s detection performance, and the performance of classification was evaluated by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC). Furthermore, we assessed the diagnostic value of MDCS through visual analysis of disputed cases,comparing its performance and efficiency with that of radiologists and exploring whether it could augment radiologists’ performance.Results: On the pooled external and prospective testing sets, MDCS always maintained a high standalone performance, with AFROC-Scores of 0.953 and 0.963 for detection task, and AUCs for classification were 0.909[95% confidence interval(95% CI): 0.822-0.996] and 0.912(95% CI: 0.840-0.985), respectively. It also achieved higher sensitivity than all senior radiologists and higher specificity than all junior radiologists on pooled external and prospective testing sets. Moreover, MDCS performed superior diagnostic efficiency with an average reading time of 5 seconds, compared to the radiologists’ average reading time of 3.2 min. The average performance of all radiologists was also improved to varying degrees with MDCS assistance.Conclusions: MDCS demonstrated excellent performance in the detection and classification of breast lesions,and greatly enhanced the overall performance of radiologists.展开更多

These approaches may be efficient but the parameter size and computation(Comp) have explosive growth. So we present a novel architecture called"DLA+", which could obtain the feature from the different stages, and by the newly designed convolution block, could achieve better accuracy, while also dropping the computation six times compared to the baseline. We design some experiments about classification and object detection. On the CIFAR10 and VOC data-sets, we get better precision and faster speed than other architecture. The lightweight network even allows us to deploy to some low-performance device like drone, laptop, etc.展开更多

文摘With recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence,the use of deep learning models achieved remarkable advances in computer vision,ecommerce,cybersecurity,and healthcare.Particularly,numerous applications provided efficient solutions to assist radiologists for medical imaging analysis.For instance,automatic lesion detection and classification in mammograms is still considered a crucial task that requires more accurate diagnosis and precise analysis of abnormal lesions.In this paper,we propose an end-to-end system,which is based on You-Only-Look-Once(YOLO)model,to simultaneously localize and classify suspicious breast lesions from entire mammograms.The proposed system first preprocesses the raw images,then recognizes abnormal regions as breast lesions and determines their pathology classification as either mass or calcification.We evaluated the model on two publicly available datasets,with 2907 mammograms from the Curated Breast Imaging Subset of Digital Database for Screening Mammography(CBIS-DDSM)and 235 mammograms from INbreast database.We also used a privately collected dataset with 487 mammograms.Furthermore,we suggested a fusion models approach to report more precise detection and accurate classification.Our best results reached a detection accuracy rate of 95.7%,98.1%and 98%for mass lesions and 74.4%,71.8%and 73.2%for calcification lesions,respectively on CBIS-DDSM,INbreast and the private dataset.

文摘Objective: Accurate detection and classification of breast lesions in early stage is crucial to timely formulate effective treatments for patients. We aim to develop a fully automatic system to detect and classify breast lesions using multiple contrast-enhanced mammography(CEM) images.Methods: In this study, a total of 1,903 females who underwent CEM examination from three hospitals were enrolled as the training set, internal testing set, pooled external testing set and prospective testing set. Here we developed a CEM-based multiprocess detection and classification system(MDCS) to perform the task of detection and classification of breast lesions. In this system, we introduced an innovative auxiliary feature fusion(AFF)algorithm that could intelligently incorporates multiple types of information from CEM images. The average freeresponse receiver operating characteristic score(AFROC-Score) was presented to validate system’s detection performance, and the performance of classification was evaluated by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC). Furthermore, we assessed the diagnostic value of MDCS through visual analysis of disputed cases,comparing its performance and efficiency with that of radiologists and exploring whether it could augment radiologists’ performance.Results: On the pooled external and prospective testing sets, MDCS always maintained a high standalone performance, with AFROC-Scores of 0.953 and 0.963 for detection task, and AUCs for classification were 0.909[95% confidence interval(95% CI): 0.822-0.996] and 0.912(95% CI: 0.840-0.985), respectively. It also achieved higher sensitivity than all senior radiologists and higher specificity than all junior radiologists on pooled external and prospective testing sets. Moreover, MDCS performed superior diagnostic efficiency with an average reading time of 5 seconds, compared to the radiologists’ average reading time of 3.2 min. The average performance of all radiologists was also improved to varying degrees with MDCS assistance.Conclusions: MDCS demonstrated excellent performance in the detection and classification of breast lesions,and greatly enhanced the overall performance of radiologists.

文摘Automatic road damage detection using image processing is an important aspect of road maintenance.It is also a challenging problem due to the inhomogeneity of road damage and complicated background in the road images.In recent years,deep convolutional neural network based methods have been used to address the challenges of road damage detection and classification.In this paper,we propose a new approach to address those challenges.This approach uses densely connected convolution networks as the backbone of the Mask R-CNN to effectively extract image feature,a feature pyramid network for combining multiple scales features,a region proposal network to generate the road damage region,and a fully convolutional neural network to classify the road damage region and refine the region bounding box.This method can not only detect and classify the road damage,but also create a mask of the road damage.Experimental results show that the proposed approach can achieve better results compared with other existing methods.

文摘Arrhythmia is ubiquitous worldwide and cardiologists tend to provide solutions from the recent advancements in medicine.Detecting arrhythmia from ECG signals is considered a standard approach and hence,automating this process would aid the diagnosis by providing fast,costefficient,and accurate solutions at scale.This is executed by extracting the definite properties from the individual patterns collected from Electrocardiography(ECG)signals causing arrhythmia.In this era of applied intelligence,automated detection and diagnostic solutions are widely used for their spontaneous and robust solutions.In this research,our contributions are two-fold.Firstly,the Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform(DT-CWT)method is implied to overhaul shift-invariance and aids signal reconstruction to extract significant features.Next,A neural attention mechanism is implied to capture temporal patterns from the extracted features of the ECG signal to discriminate distinct classes of arrhythmia and is trained end-to-end with the finest parameters.To ensure that the model’s generalizability,a set of five traintest variants are implied.The proposed model attains the highest accuracy of 98.5%for classifying 8 variants of arrhythmia on the MIT-BIH dataset.To test the resilience of the model,the unseen(test)samples are increased by 5x and the deviation in accuracy score and MSE was 0.12%and 0.1%respectively.Further,to assess the diagnostic model performance,AUC-ROC curves are plotted.At every test level,the proposed model is capable of generalizing new samples and leverages the advantage to develop a real-world application.As a note,this research is the first attempt to provide neural attention in arrhythmia classification using MIT-BIH ECG signals data with state-of-the-art performance.

文摘Oral cancer is the most commonly occurring‘head and neck cancers’across the globe.Most of the oral cancer cases are diagnosed at later stages due to absence of awareness among public.Since earlier identification of disease is essential for improved outcomes,Artificial Intelligence(AI)and Machine Learning(ML)models are used in this regard.In this background,the current study introduces Artificial Intelligence with Deep Transfer Learning driven Oral Cancer detection and Classification Model(AIDTLOCCM).The primary goal of the proposed AIDTL-OCCM model is to diagnose oral cancer using AI and image processing techniques.The proposed AIDTL-OCCM model involves fuzzy-based contrast enhancement approach to perform data pre-processing.Followed by,the densely-connected networks(DenseNet-169)model is employed to produce a useful set of deep features.Moreover,Chimp Optimization Algorithm(COA)with Autoencoder(AE)model is applied for oral cancer detection and classification.Furthermore,COA is employed to determine optimal parameters involved in AE model.A wide range of experimental analyses was conducted on benchmark datasets and the results were investigated under several aspects.The extensive experimental analysis outcomes established the enhanced performance of AIDTLOCCM model compared to other approaches with a maximum accuracy of 90.08%.
文摘Intrusion detection is a predominant task that monitors and protects the network infrastructure.Therefore,many datasets have been published and investigated by researchers to analyze and understand the problem of intrusion prediction and detection.In particular,the Network Security Laboratory-Knowledge Discovery in Databases(NSL-KDD)is an extensively used benchmark dataset for evaluating intrusion detection systems(IDSs)as it incorporates various network traffic attacks.It is worth mentioning that a large number of studies have tackled the problem of intrusion detection using machine learning models,but the performance of these models often decreases when evaluated on new attacks.This has led to the utilization of deep learning techniques,which have showcased significant potential for processing large datasets and therefore improving detection accuracy.For that reason,this paper focuses on the role of stacking deep learning models,including convolution neural network(CNN)and deep neural network(DNN)for improving the intrusion detection rate of the NSL-KDD dataset.Each base model is trained on the NSL-KDD dataset to extract significant features.Once the base models have been trained,the stacking process proceeds to the second stage,where a simple meta-model has been trained on the predictions generated from the proposed base models.The combination of the predictions allows the meta-model to distinguish different classes of attacks and increase the detection rate.Our experimental evaluations using the NSL-KDD dataset have shown the efficacy of stacking deep learning models for intrusion detection.The performance of the ensemble of base models,combined with the meta-model,exceeds the performance of individual models.Our stacking model has attained an accuracy of 99%and an average F1-score of 93%for the multi-classification scenario.Besides,the training time of the proposed ensemble model is lower than the training time of benchmark techniques,demonstrating its efficiency and robustness.

文摘An efficient convolution neural network(CNN) plays a crucial role in various visual tasks like object classification or detection, etc. The most common way to construct a CNN is stacking the same convolution block or complex connection. These approaches may be efficient but the parameter size and computation(Comp) have explosive growth. So we present a novel architecture called"DLA+", which could obtain the feature from the different stages, and by the newly designed convolution block, could achieve better accuracy, while also dropping the computation six times compared to the baseline. We design some experiments about classification and object detection. On the CIFAR10 and VOC data-sets, we get better precision and faster speed than other architecture. The lightweight network even allows us to deploy to some low-performance device like drone, laptop, etc.

文摘As the amount of online video content is increasing,consumers are becoming increasingly interested in various product names appearing in videos,particularly in cosmetic-product names in videos related to fashion,beauty,and style.Thus,the identification of such products by using image recognition technology may aid in the identification of current commercial trends.In this paper,we propose a two-stage deep-learning detection and classification method for cosmetic products.Specifically,variants of the YOLO network are used for detection,where the bounding box for each given input product is predicted and subsequently cropped for classification.We use four state-of-the-art classification networks,namely ResNet,InceptionResNetV2,DenseNet,and EfficientNet,and compare their performance.Furthermore,we employ dilated convolution in these networks to obtain better feature representations and improve performance.Extensive experiments demonstrate that YOLOv3 and its tiny version achieve higher speed and accuracy.Moreover,the dilated networks marginally outperform the base models,or achieve similar performance in the worst case.We conclude that the proposed method can effectively detect and classify cosmetic products.

文摘A new classification model for host intrusion detection based on the unidentified short sequences and RIPPER algorithm is proposed. The concepts of different short sequences on the system call traces are strictly defined on the basis of in-depth analysis of completeness and correctness of pattern databases. Labels of short sequences are predicted by learned RIPPER rule set and the nature of the unidentified short sequences is confirmed by statistical method. Experiment results indicate that the classification model increases clearly the deviation between the attack and the normal traces and improves detection capability against known and unknown attacks.
文摘Breast cancer is one of the deadly diseases prevailing in women.Earlier detection and diagnosis might prevent the death rate.Effective diagnosis of breast cancer remains a significant challenge,and early diagnosis is essential to avoid the most severe manifestations of the disease.The existing systems have computational complexity and classification accuracy problems over various breast cancer databases.In order to overcome the above-mentioned issues,this work introduces an efficient classification and segmentation process.Hence,there is a requirement for developing a fully automatic methodology for screening the cancer regions.This paper develops a fully automated method for breast cancer detection and segmenta-tion utilizing Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS)classification technique.This proposed technique comprises preprocessing,feature extraction,classifications,and segmentation stages.Here,the wavelet-based enhancement method has been employed as the preprocessing method.The texture and statistical features have been extracted from the enhanced image.Then,the ANFIS classification algorithm is used to classify the mammogram image into normal,benign,and malignant cases.Then,morphological processing is performed on malignant mam-mogram images to segment cancer regions.Performance analysis and comparisons are made with conventional methods.The experimental result proves that the pro-posed ANFIS algorithm provides better classification performance in terms of higher accuracy than the existing algorithms.

文摘Breast cancer detection heavily relies on medical imaging, particularly ultrasound, for early diagnosis and effectivetreatment. This research addresses the challenges associated with computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) of breastcancer fromultrasound images. The primary challenge is accurately distinguishing between malignant and benigntumors, complicated by factors such as speckle noise, variable image quality, and the need for precise segmentationand classification. The main objective of the research paper is to develop an advanced methodology for breastultrasound image classification, focusing on speckle noise reduction, precise segmentation, feature extraction, andmachine learning-based classification. A unique approach is introduced that combines Enhanced Speckle ReducedAnisotropic Diffusion (SRAD) filters for speckle noise reduction, U-NET-based segmentation, Genetic Algorithm(GA)-based feature selection, and Random Forest and Bagging Tree classifiers, resulting in a novel and efficientmodel. To test and validate the hybrid model, rigorous experimentations were performed and results state thatthe proposed hybrid model achieved accuracy rate of 99.9%, outperforming other existing techniques, and alsosignificantly reducing computational time. This enhanced accuracy, along with improved sensitivity and specificity,makes the proposed hybrid model a valuable addition to CAD systems in breast cancer diagnosis, ultimatelyenhancing diagnostic accuracy in clinical applications.
