Fine-Grained Classification of Remote Sensing Ship Images Based on Improved VAN

The remote sensing ships’fine-grained classification technology makes it possible to identify certain ship types in remote sensing images,and it has broad application prospects in civil and military fields.However,the current model does not examine the properties of ship targets in remote sensing images with mixed multi-granularity features and a complicated backdrop.There is still an opportunity for future enhancement of the classification impact.To solve the challenges brought by the above characteristics,this paper proposes a Metaformer and Residual fusion network based on Visual Attention Network(VAN-MR)for fine-grained classification tasks.For the complex background of remote sensing images,the VAN-MR model adopts the parallel structure of large kernel attention and spatial attention to enhance the model’s feature extraction ability of interest targets and improve the classification performance of remote sensing ship targets.For the problem of multi-grained feature mixing in remote sensing images,the VAN-MR model uses a Metaformer structure and a parallel network of residual modules to extract ship features.The parallel network has different depths,considering both high-level and lowlevel semantic information.The model achieves better classification performance in remote sensing ship images with multi-granularity mixing.Finally,the model achieves 88.73%and 94.56%accuracy on the public fine-grained ship collection-23(FGSC-23)and FGSCR-42 datasets,respectively,while the parameter size is only 53.47 M,the floating point operations is 9.9 G.The experimental results show that the classification effect of VAN-MR is superior to that of traditional CNNs model and visual model with Transformer structure under the same parameter quantity.

Discussion on classification and naming scheme of fine-grained sedimentary rocks

Based on reviews and summaries of the naming schemes of fine-grained sedimentary rocks, and analysis of characteristics of fine-grained sedimentary rocks, the problems existing in the classification and naming of fine-grained sedimentary rocks are discussed. On this basis, following the principle of three-level nomenclature, a new scheme of rock classification and naming for fine-grained sedimentary rocks is determined from two perspectives: First, fine-grained sedimentary rocks are divided into 12 types in two major categories, mudstone and siltstone, according to particle size(sand, silt and mud). Second,fine-grained sedimentary rocks are divided into 18 types in four categories, carbonate rock, fine-grained felsic sedimentary rock,clay rock and mixed fine-grained sedimentary rock according to mineral composition(carbonate minerals, felsic detrital minerals and clay minerals as three end elements). Considering the importance of organic matter in unconventional oil and gas generation and evaluation, organic matter is taken as the fourth element in the scheme. Taking the organic matter contents of 0.5% and 2% as dividing points, fine grained sedimentary rocks are divided into three categories, organic-poor, organic-bearing,and organic-rich ones. The new scheme meets the requirement of unconventional oil and gas exploration and development today and solves the problem of conceptual confusion in fine-grained sedimentary rocks, providing a unified basic term system for the research of fine-grained sedimentology.

In order to solve the poor performance in text classification when using traditional formula of mutual information （MI） , a feature selection algorithm were proposed based on improved mutual information. The improved mutual information algorithm, which is on the basis of traditional improved mutual information methods that enbance the MI value of negative characteristics and feature＇ s frequency, supports the concept of concentration degree and dispersion degree.

The recycling of glass bottles can reduce the consumption of resources and contribute to environmental protection.At present,the classification of recycled glass bottles is difficult due to the many differences in specifications and models.This paper proposes a classification algorithm for glass bottles that is divided into two stages,namely the extraction of candidate regions and the classification of classifiers.In the candidate region extraction stage,aiming at the problem of the large time overhead caused by the use of the SIFT(scale-invariant feature transform)descriptor in SS(selective search),an improved feature of HLSN(Haar-like based on SPP-Net)is proposed.An integral graph is introduced to accelerate the process of forming an HBSN vector,which overcomes the problem of repeated texture feature calculation in overlapping regions by SS.In the classification stage,the improved SS algorithm is used to extract target regions.The target regions are merged using a non-maximum suppression algorithm according to the classification scores of the respective regions,and the merged regions are classified using the trained classifier.Experiments demonstrate that,compared with the original SS,the improved SS algorithm increases the calculation speed by 13.8%,and its classification accuracy is 89.4%.Additionally,the classification algorithm for glass bottles has a certain resistance to noise.

Multi-Branch Deepfake Detection Algorithm Based on Fine-Grained Features

With the rapid development of deepfake technology,the authenticity of various types of fake synthetic content is increasing rapidly,which brings potential security threats to people’s daily life and social stability.Currently,most algorithms define deepfake detection as a binary classification problem,i.e.,global features are first extracted using a backbone network and then fed into a binary classifier to discriminate true or false.However,the differences between real and fake samples are often subtle and local,and such global feature-based detection algorithms are not optimal in efficiency and accuracy.To this end,to enhance the extraction of forgery details in deep forgery samples,we propose a multi-branch deepfake detection algorithm based on fine-grained features from the perspective of fine-grained classification.First,to address the critical problem in locating discriminative feature regions in fine-grained classification tasks,we investigate a method for locating multiple different discriminative regions and design a lightweight feature localization module to obtain crucial feature representations by augmenting the most significant parts of the feature map.Second,using information complementation,we introduce a correlation-guided fusion module to enhance the discriminative feature information of different branches.Finally,we use the global attention module in the multi-branch model to improve the cross-dimensional interaction of spatial domain and channel domain information and increase the weights of crucial feature regions and feature channels.We conduct sufficient ablation experiments and comparative experiments.The experimental results show that the algorithm outperforms the detection accuracy and effectiveness on the FaceForensics++and Celeb-DF-v2 datasets compared with the representative detection algorithms in recent years,which can achieve better detection results.

A New Childhood Pneumonia Diagnosis Method Based on Fine-Grained Convolutional Neural Network

Pneumonia is part of the main diseases causing the death of children.It is generally diagnosed through chest Xray images.With the development of Deep Learning(DL),the diagnosis of pneumonia based on DL has received extensive attention.However,due to the small difference between pneumonia and normal images,the performance of DL methods could be improved.This research proposes a new fine-grained Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)for children’s pneumonia diagnosis(FG-CPD).Firstly,the fine-grainedCNNclassificationwhich can handle the slight difference in images is investigated.To obtain the raw images from the real-world chest X-ray data,the YOLOv4 algorithm is trained to detect and position the chest part in the raw images.Secondly,a novel attention network is proposed,named SGNet,which integrates the spatial information and channel information of the images to locate the discriminative parts in the chest image for expanding the difference between pneumonia and normal images.Thirdly,the automatic data augmentation method is adopted to increase the diversity of the images and avoid the overfitting of FG-CPD.The FG-CPD has been tested on the public Chest X-ray 2017 dataset,and the results show that it has achieved great effect.Then,the FG-CPD is tested on the real chest X-ray images from children aged 3–12 years ago from Tongji Hospital.The results show that FG-CPD has achieved up to 96.91%accuracy,which can validate the potential of the FG-CPD.

A Survey on Deep Learning-based Fine-grained Object Classification and Semantic Segmentation

The deep learning technology has shown impressive performance in various vision tasks such as image classification, object detection and semantic segmentation. In particular, recent advances of deep learning techniques bring encouraging performance to fine-grained image classification which aims to distinguish subordinate-level categories, such as bird species or dog breeds. This task is extremely challenging due to high intra-class and low inter-class variance. In this paper, we review four types of deep learning based fine-grained image classification approaches, including the general convolutional neural networks （CNNs）, part detection based, ensemble of networks based and visual attention based fine-grained image classification approaches. Besides, the deep learning based semantic segmentation approaches are also covered in this paper. The region proposal based and fully convolutional networks based approaches for semantic segmentation are introduced respectively.

Zero-shot Fine-grained Classification by Deep Feature Learning with Semantics

Fine-grained image classification, which aims to distinguish images with subtle distinctions, is a challenging task for two main reasons: lack of sufficient training data for every class and difficulty in learning discriminative features for representation. In this paper, to address the two issues, we propose a two-phase framework for recognizing images from unseen fine-grained classes, i.e., zeroshot fine-grained classification. In the first feature learning phase, we finetune deep convolutional neural networks using hierarchical semantic structure among fine-grained classes to extract discriminative deep visual features. Meanwhile, a domain adaptation structure is induced into deep convolutional neural networks to avoid domain shift from training data to test data. In the second label inference phase, a semantic directed graph is constructed over attributes of fine-grained classes. Based on this graph, we develop a label propagation algorithm to infer the labels of images in the unseen classes. Experimental results on two benchmark datasets demonstrate that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art zero-shot learning models. In addition, the features obtained by our feature learning model also yield significant gains when they are used by other zero-shot learning models, which shows the flexility of our model in zero-shot finegrained classification.

Classification of Hydrocarbon-Bearing Fine-Grained Sedimentary Rocks

Fine-grained sedimentary rocks are defined as rocks which mainly compose of fine grains（〈62.5 μm）. The detailed studies on these rocks have revealed the need of a more unified, comprehensive and inclusive classification. The study focuses on fine-grained rocks has turned from the differences of inorganic mineral components to the significance of organic matter and microorganisms. The proposed classification is based on mineral composition, and it is noted that organic matters have been taken as a very important parameter in this classification scheme. Thus, four parameters, the TOC content, silica（quartz plus feldspars）, clay minerals and carbonate minerals, are considered to divide the fine-grained sedimentary rocks into eight categories, and the further classification within every category is refined depending on subordinate mineral composition. The nomenclature consists of a root name preceded by a primary adjective. The root names reflect mineral constituent of the rock, including low organic（TOC〈2%）, middle organic（2%4%） claystone, siliceous mudstone, limestone, and mixed mudstone. Primary adjectives convey structure and organic content information, including massive or limanited. The lithofacies are closely related to the reservoir storage space, porosity, permeability, hydrocarbon potential and shale oil/gas sweet spot, and are the key factor for the shale oil and gas exploration. The classification helps to systematically and practicably describe variability within fine-grained sedimentary rocks, what＇s more, it helps to guide the hydrocarbon exploration.

Identification of Convective and Stratiform Clouds Based on the Improved DBSCAN Clustering Algorithm

A convective and stratiform cloud classification method for weather radar is proposed based on the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise(DBSCAN)algorithm.To identify convective and stratiform clouds in different developmental phases,two-dimensional(2D)and three-dimensional(3D)models are proposed by applying reflectivity factors at 0.5°and at 0.5°,1.5°,and 2.4°elevation angles,respectively.According to the thresholds of the algorithm,which include echo intensity,the echo top height of 35 dBZ(ET),density threshold,andεneighborhood,cloud clusters can be marked into four types:deep-convective cloud(DCC),shallow-convective cloud(SCC),hybrid convective-stratiform cloud(HCS),and stratiform cloud(SFC)types.Each cloud cluster type is further identified as a core area and boundary area,which can provide more abundant cloud structure information.The algorithm is verified using the volume scan data observed with new-generation S-band weather radars in Nanjing,Xuzhou,and Qingdao.The results show that cloud clusters can be intuitively identified as core and boundary points,which change in area continuously during the process of convective evolution,by the improved DBSCAN algorithm.Therefore,the occurrence and disappearance of convective weather can be estimated in advance by observing the changes of the classification.Because density thresholds are different and multiple elevations are utilized in the 3D model,the identified echo types and areas are dissimilar between the 2D and 3D models.The 3D model identifies larger convective and stratiform clouds than the 2D model.However,the developing convective clouds of small areas at lower heights cannot be identified with the 3D model because they are covered by thick stratiform clouds.In addition,the 3D model can avoid the influence of the melting layer and better suggest convective clouds in the developmental stage.

A new dataset of dog breed images and a benchmark for fine-grained classification

In this paper, we introduce an image dataset for fine-grained classification of dog breeds: the Tsinghua Dogs Dataset. It is currently the largest dataset for fine-grained classification of dogs, including 130 dog breeds and 70,428 real-world images. It has only one dog in each image and provides annotated bounding boxes for the whole body and head. In comparison to previous similar datasets, it contains more breeds and more carefully chosen images for each breed. The diversity within each breed is greater,with between 200 and 7000+ images for each breed.Annotation of the whole body and head makes the dataset not only suitable for the improvement of finegrained image classification models based on overall features, but also for those locating local informative parts. We show that dataset provides a tough challenge by benchmarking several state-of-the-art deep neural models. The dataset is available for academic purposes at https://cg.cs.tsinghua.edu.cn/ThuDogs/.

Fine-grained P2P traffic classification by simply counting flows

The continuous emerging of peer-to-peer(P2P) applications enriches resource sharing by networks, but it also brings about many challenges to network management. Therefore, P2 P applications monitoring, in particular,P2 P traffic classification, is becoming increasingly important. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for accurate P2 P traffic classification at a fine-grained level. Our approach relies only on counting some special flows that are appearing frequently and steadily in the traffic generated by specific P2 P applications. In contrast to existing methods, the main contribution of our approach can be summarized as the following two aspects. Firstly, it can achieve a high classification accuracy by exploiting only several generic properties of flows rather than complicated features and sophisticated techniques. Secondly, it can work well even if the classification target is running with other high bandwidth-consuming applications, outperforming most existing host-based approaches, which are incapable of dealing with this situation. We evaluated the performance of our approach on a real-world trace. Experimental results show that P2 P applications can be classified with a true positive rate higher than 97.22% and a false positive rate lower than 2.78%.

Fine-grained classification of grape leaves via a pyramid residual convolution neural network

The value of grape cultivars varies.The use of a mixture of cultivars can negate the benefits of improved cultivars and hamper the protection of genetic resources and the identification of new hybrid cultivars.Classifying cultivars based on their leaves is therefore highly practical.Transplanted grape seedlings take years to bear fruit,but leaves mature in months.Foliar morphology differs among cultivars,so identifying cultivars based on leaves is feasible.Different cultivars,however,can be bred from the same parents,so the leaves of some cultivars can have similar morphologies.In this work,a pyramid residual convolution neural network was developed to classify images of eleven grape cultivars.The model extracts multi-scale feature maps of the leaf images through the convolution layer and enters them into three residual convolution neural networks.Features are fused by adding the value of the convolution kernel feature matrix to enhance the attention on the edge and center regions of the leaves and classify the images.The results indicated that the average accuracy of the model was 92.26%for the proposed leaf dataset.The proposed model is superior to previous models and provides a reliable method for the fine-grained classification and identification of plant cultivars.
