Radar emitter signal recognition method based on improved collaborative semi-supervised learning

Rare labeled data are difficult to recognize by using conventional methods in the process of radar emitter recogni-tion.To solve this problem,an optimized cooperative semi-supervised learning radar emitter recognition method based on a small amount of labeled data is developed.First,a small amount of labeled data are randomly sampled by using the bootstrap method,loss functions for three common deep learning net-works are improved,the uniform distribution and cross-entropy function are combined to reduce the overconfidence of softmax classification.Subsequently,the dataset obtained after sam-pling is adopted to train three improved networks so as to build the initial model.In addition,the unlabeled data are preliminarily screened through dynamic time warping(DTW)and then input into the initial model trained previously for judgment.If the judg-ment results of two or more networks are consistent,the unla-beled data are labeled and put into the labeled data set.Lastly,the three network models are input into the labeled dataset for training,and the final model is built.As revealed by the simula-tion results,the semi-supervised learning method adopted in this paper is capable of exploiting a small amount of labeled data and basically achieving the accuracy of labeled data recognition.

CoLM^(2)S:Contrastive self‐supervised learning on attributed multiplex graph network with multi‐scale information

Contrastive self‐supervised representation learning on attributed graph networks with Graph Neural Networks has attracted considerable research interest recently.However,there are still two challenges.First,most of the real‐word system are multiple relations,where entities are linked by different types of relations,and each relation is a view of the graph network.Second,the rich multi‐scale information(structure‐level and feature‐level)of the graph network can be seen as self‐supervised signals,which are not fully exploited.A novel contrastive self‐supervised representation learning framework on attributed multiplex graph networks with multi‐scale(named CoLM^(2)S)information is presented in this study.It mainly contains two components:intra‐relation contrast learning and interrelation contrastive learning.Specifically,the contrastive self‐supervised representation learning framework on attributed single‐layer graph networks with multi‐scale information(CoLMS)framework with the graph convolutional network as encoder to capture the intra‐relation information with multi‐scale structure‐level and feature‐level selfsupervised signals is introduced first.The structure‐level information includes the edge structure and sub‐graph structure,and the feature‐level information represents the output of different graph convolutional layer.Second,according to the consensus assumption among inter‐relations,the CoLM^(2)S framework is proposed to jointly learn various graph relations in attributed multiplex graph network to achieve global consensus node embedding.The proposed method can fully distil the graph information.Extensive experiments on unsupervised node clustering and graph visualisation tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods,and it outperforms existing competitive baselines.

Supervised Learning Algorithm on Unstructured Documents for the Classification of Job Offers: Case of Cameroun

Nowadays, in data science, supervised learning algorithms are frequently used to perform text classification. However, African textual data, in general, have been studied very little using these methods. This article notes the particularity of the data and measures the level of precision of predictions of naive Bayes algorithms, decision tree, and SVM (Support Vector Machine) on a corpus of computer jobs taken on the internet. This is due to the data imbalance problem in machine learning. However, this problem essentially focuses on the distribution of the number of documents in each class or subclass. Here, we delve deeper into the problem to the word count distribution in a set of documents. The results are compared with those obtained on a set of French IT offers. It appears that the precision of the classification varies between 88% and 90% for French offers against 67%, at most, for Cameroonian offers. The contribution of this study is twofold. Indeed, it clearly shows that, in a similar job category, job offers on the internet in Cameroon are more unstructured compared to those available in France, for example. Moreover, it makes it possible to emit a strong hypothesis according to which sets of texts having a symmetrical distribution of the number of words obtain better results with supervised learning algorithms.

Lexicalized Dependency Paths Based Supervised Learning for Relation Extraction

Log-linear models and more recently neural network models used forsupervised relation extraction requires substantial amounts of training data andtime, limiting the portability to new relations and domains. To this end, we propose a training representation based on the dependency paths between entities in adependency tree which we call lexicalized dependency paths (LDPs). We showthat this representation is fast, efficient and transparent. We further propose representations utilizing entity types and its subtypes to refine our model and alleviatethe data sparsity problem. We apply lexicalized dependency paths to supervisedlearning using the ACE corpus and show that it can achieve similar performancelevel to other state-of-the-art methods and even surpass them on severalcategories.

Physics-constrained indirect supervised learning

This study proposes a supervised learning method that does not rely on labels.We use variables associated with the label as indirect labels,and construct an indirect physics-constrained loss based on the physical mechanism to train the model.In the training process,the model prediction is mapped to the space of value that conforms to the physical mechanism through the projection matrix,and then the model is trained based on the indirect labels.The final prediction result of the model conforms to the physical mechanism between indirect label and label,and also meets the constraints of the indirect label.The present study also develops projection matrix normalization and prediction covariance analysis to ensure that the model can be fully trained.Finally,the effect of the physics-constrained indirect supervised learning is verified based on a well log generation problem.

New supervised learning classifiers for structural damage diagnosis using time series features from a new feature extraction technique

The motivation for this article is to propose new damage classifiers based on a supervised learning problem for locating and quantifying damage.A new feature extraction approach using time series analysis is introduced to extract damage-sensitive features from auto-regressive models.This approach sets out to improve current feature extraction techniques in the context of time series modeling.The coefficients and residuals of the AR model obtained from the proposed approach are selected as the main features and are applied to the proposed supervised learning classifiers that are categorized as coefficient-based and residual-based classifiers.These classifiers compute the relative errors in the extracted features between the undamaged and damaged states.Eventually,the abilities of the proposed methods to localize and quantify single and multiple damage scenarios are verified by applying experimental data for a laboratory frame and a four-story steel structure.Comparative analyses are performed to validate the superiority of the proposed methods over some existing techniques.Results show that the proposed classifiers,with the aid of extracted features from the proposed feature extraction approach,are able to locate and quantify damage;however,the residual-based classifiers yield better results than the coefficient-based classifiers.Moreover,these methods are superior to some classical techniques.

Instance reduction for supervised learning using input-output clustering method

A method that applies clustering technique to reduce the number of samples of large data sets using input-output clustering is proposed.The proposed method clusters the output data into groups and clusters the input data in accordance with the groups of output data.Then,a set of prototypes are selected from the clustered input data.The inessential data can be ultimately discarded from the data set.The proposed method can reduce the effect from outliers because only the prototypes are used.This method is applied to reduce the data set in regression problems.Two standard synthetic data sets and three standard real-world data sets are used for evaluation.The root-mean-square errors are compared from support vector regression models trained with the original data sets and the corresponding instance-reduced data sets.From the experiments,the proposed method provides good results on the reduction and the reconstruction of the standard synthetic and real-world data sets.The numbers of instances of the synthetic data sets are decreased by 25%-69%.The reduction rates for the real-world data sets of the automobile miles per gallon and the 1990 census in CA are 46% and 57%,respectively.The reduction rate of 96% is very good for the electrocardiogram(ECG) data set because of the redundant and periodic nature of ECG signals.For all of the data sets,the regression results are similar to those from the corresponding original data sets.Therefore,the regression performance of the proposed method is good while only a fraction of the data is needed in the training process.

Due to the dynamic nature and node mobility,assuring the security of Mobile Ad-hoc Networks(MANET)is one of the difficult and challenging tasks today.In MANET,the Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is crucial because it aids in the identification and detection of malicious attacks that impair the network’s regular operation.Different machine learning and deep learning methodologies are used for this purpose in the conventional works to ensure increased security of MANET.However,it still has significant flaws,including increased algorithmic complexity,lower system performance,and a higher rate of misclassification.Therefore,the goal of this paper is to create an intelligent IDS framework for significantly enhancing MANET security through the use of deep learning models.Here,the min-max normalization model is applied to preprocess the given cyber-attack datasets for normalizing the attributes or fields,which increases the overall intrusion detection performance of classifier.Then,a novel Adaptive Marine Predator Optimization Algorithm(AOMA)is implemented to choose the optimal features for improving the speed and intrusion detection performance of classifier.Moreover,the Deep Supervise Learning Classification(DSLC)mechanism is utilized to predict and categorize the type of intrusion based on proper learning and training operations.During evaluation,the performance and results of the proposed AOMA-DSLC based IDS methodology is validated and compared using various performance measures and benchmarking datasets.

A Hybrid Learning Algorithm for Breast Cancer Diagnosis

In many fields, particularly that of health, the diagnosis of diseases is a very difficult task to carry out. Therefore, early detection of diseases using artificial intelligence tools can be of paramount importance in the medical field. In this study, we proposed an intelligent system capable of performing diagnoses for radiologists. The support system is designed to evaluate mammographic images, thereby classifying normal and abnormal patients. The proposed method (DiagBC for Breast Cancer Diagnosis) combines two (2) intelligent unsupervised learning algorithms (the C-Means clustering algorithm and the Gaussian Mixture Model) for the segmentation of medical images and an algorithm for supervised learning (a modified DenseNet) for the diagnosis of breast images. Ultimately, a prototype of the proposed system was implemented for the Magori Polyclinic in Niamey (Niger) making it possible to diagnose (or classify) breast cancer into two (2) classes: the normal class and the abnormal class.

Supervised learning with probability interpretation in airfoil transition judgment

Transition prediction has always been a frontier issue in the field of aerodynamics.A supervised learning model with probability interpretation for transition judgment based on experimental data was developed in this paper.It solved the shortcomings of the point detection method in the experiment,that which was often only one transition point could be obtained,and comparison of multi-point data was necessary.First,the Variable-Interval Time Average(VITA)method was used to transform the fluctuating pressure signal measured on the airfoil surface into a sequence of states which was described by Markov chain model.Second,a feature vector consisting of one-step transition matrix and its stationary distribution was extracted.Then,the Hidden Markov Model(HMM)was used to pre-classify the feature vectors marked using the traditional Root Mean Square(RMS)criteria.Finally,a classification model with probability interpretation was established,and the cross-validation method was used for model validation.The research results show that the developed model is effective and reliable,and it has strong Reynolds number generalization ability.The developed model was theoretically analyzed in depth,and the effect of parameters on the model was studied in detail.Compared with the traditional RMS criterion,a reasonable transition zone can be obtained using the developed classification model.In addition,the developed model does not require comparison of multi-point data.The developed supervised learning model provides new ideas for the transition detection in flight experiments and other experiments.

Weakly Supervised Network with Scribble-Supervised and Edge-Mask for Road Extraction from High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images

Significant advancements have been achieved in road surface extraction based on high-resolution remote sensingimage processing. Most current methods rely on fully supervised learning, which necessitates enormous humaneffort to label the image. Within this field, other research endeavors utilize weakly supervised methods. Theseapproaches aim to reduce the expenses associated with annotation by leveraging sparsely annotated data, such asscribbles. This paper presents a novel technique called a weakly supervised network using scribble-supervised andedge-mask (WSSE-net). This network is a three-branch network architecture, whereby each branch is equippedwith a distinct decoder module dedicated to road extraction tasks. One of the branches is dedicated to generatingedge masks using edge detection algorithms and optimizing road edge details. The other two branches supervise themodel’s training by employing scribble labels and spreading scribble information throughout the image. To addressthe historical flaw that created pseudo-labels that are not updated with network training, we use mixup to blendprediction results dynamically and continually update new pseudo-labels to steer network training. Our solutiondemonstrates efficient operation by simultaneously considering both edge-mask aid and dynamic pseudo-labelsupport. The studies are conducted on three separate road datasets, which consist primarily of high-resolutionremote-sensing satellite photos and drone images. The experimental findings suggest that our methodologyperforms better than advanced scribble-supervised approaches and specific traditional fully supervised methods.

N-11-azaartemisinins potentially active against Plasmodium falciparum are designed by combining molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), ligand-receptor interaction, and models built with supervised machine learning methods (PCA, HCA, KNN, SIMCA, and SDA). The optimization of molecular structures was performed using the B3LYP/6-31G* approach. MEP maps and ligand-receptor interactions were used to investigate key structural features required for biological activities and likely interactions between N-11-azaartemisinins and heme, respectively. The supervised machine learning methods allowed the separation of the investigated compounds into two classes: cha and cla, with the properties εLUMO+1 (one level above lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy), d(C6-C5) (distance between C6 and C5 atoms in ligands), and TSA (total surface area) responsible for the classification. The insights extracted from the investigation developed and the chemical intuition enabled the design of sixteen new N-11-azaartemisinins (prediction set), moreover, models built with supervised machine learning methods were applied to this prediction set. The result of this application showed twelve new promising N-11-azaartemisinins for synthesis and biological evaluation.

Pre-training with asynchronous supervised learning for reinforcement learning based autonomous driving

Rule-based autonomous driving systems may suffer from increased complexity with large-scale intercoupled rules,so many researchers are exploring learning-based approaches.Reinforcement learning(RL)has been applied in designing autonomous driving systems because of its outstanding performance on a wide variety of sequential control problems.However,poor initial performance is a major challenge to the practical implementation of an RL-based autonomous driving system.RL training requires extensive training data before the model achieves reasonable performance,making an RL-based model inapplicable in a real-world setting,particularly when data are expensive.We propose an asynchronous supervised learning(ASL)method for the RL-based end-to-end autonomous driving model to address the problem of poor initial performance before training this RL-based model in real-world settings.Specifically,prior knowledge is introduced in the ASL pre-training stage by asynchronously executing multiple supervised learning processes in parallel,on multiple driving demonstration data sets.After pre-training,the model is deployed on a real vehicle to be further trained by RL to adapt to the real environment and continuously break the performance limit.The presented pre-training method is evaluated on the race car simulator,TORCS(The Open Racing Car Simulator),to verify that it can be sufficiently reliable in improving the initial performance and convergence speed of an end-to-end autonomous driving model in the RL training stage.In addition,a real-vehicle verification system is built to verify the feasibility of the proposed pre-training method in a real-vehicle deployment.Simulations results show that using some demonstrations during a supervised pre-training stage allows significant improvements in initial performance and convergence speed in the RL training stage.
