Such predictions are used to identify defective modules before the testing and to minimize the time and cost. The software with defects negatively impacts operational costs and finally affects customer satisfaction. Numerous approaches exist to predict software defects. However, the timely and accurate software bugs are the major challenging issues. To improve the timely and accurate software defect prediction, a novel technique called Nonparametric Statistical feature scaled QuAdratic regressive convolution Deep nEural Network (SQADEN) is introduced. The proposed SQADEN technique mainly includes two major processes namely metric or feature selection and classification. First, the SQADEN uses the nonparametric statistical Torgerson–Gower scaling technique for identifying the relevant software metrics by measuring the similarity using the dice coefficient. The feature selection process is used to minimize the time complexity of software fault prediction. With the selected metrics, software fault perdition with the help of the Quadratic Censored regressive convolution deep neural network-based classification. The deep learning classifier analyzes the training and testing samples using the contingency correlation coefficient. The softstep activation function is used to provide the final fault prediction results. To minimize the error, the Nelder–Mead method is applied to solve non-linear least-squares problems. Finally, accurate classification results with a minimum error are obtained at the output layer. Experimental evaluation is carried out with different quantitative metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure, and time complexity. The analyzed results demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed SQADEN technique with maximum accuracy, sensitivity and specificity by 3%, 3%, 2% and 3% and minimum time and space by 13% and 15% when compared with the two state-of-the-art methods.展开更多

In particular, autonomous vehicles, must have a reliable vision of their workspace to robustly accomplish driving functions. Speaking of machine vision, deep learning techniques, and specifically convolutional neural networks, have been proven to be the state of the art technology in the field. As these networks typically involve millions of parameters and elements, designing an optimal architecture for deep learning structures is a difficult task which is globally under investigation by researchers. This study experimentally evaluates the impact of three major architectural properties of convolutional networks, including the number of layers, filters, and filter size on their performance. In this study, several models with different properties are developed,equally trained, and then applied to an autonomous car in a realistic simulation environment. A new ensemble approach is also proposed to calculate and update weights for the models regarding their mean squared error values. Based on design properties,performance results are reported and compared for further investigations. Surprisingly, the number of filters itself does not largely affect the performance efficiency. As a result, proper allocation of filters with different kernel sizes through the layers introduces a considerable improvement in the performance.Achievements of this study will provide the researchers with a clear clue and direction in designing optimal network architectures for deep learning purposes.展开更多

In this paper, in order to take advantage of deep convolutional neural network and multispectral data, we model multispectral ship recognition task into a convolutional feature fusion problem, and propose a feature fusion architecture called Hybrid Fusion. We fine-tune the VGG-16 model pre-trained on ImageNet through three channels single spectral image and four channels multispectral images, and use existing regularization techniques to avoid over-fitting problem. Hybrid Fusion as well as the other three feature fusion architectures is investigated. Each fusion architecture consists of visible image and infrared image feature extraction branches, in which the pre-trained and fine-tuned VGG-16 models are taken as feature extractor. In each fusion architecture, image features of two branches are firstly extracted from the same layer or different layers of VGG-16 model. Subsequently, the features extracted from the two branches are flattened and concatenated to produce a multispectral feature vector, which is finally fed into a classifier to achieve ship recognition task. Furthermore, based on these fusion architectures, we also evaluate recognition performance of a feature vector normalization method and three combinations of feature extractors. Experimental results on the visible and infrared ship (VAIS) dataset show that the best Hybrid Fusion achieves 89.6% mean per-class recognition accuracy on daytime paired images and 64.9% on nighttime infrared images, and outperforms the state-of-the-art method by 1.4% and 3.9%, respectively.展开更多

The software with defects negatively impacts operational costs and finally affects customer satisfaction. Numerous approaches exist to predict software defects. However, the timely and accurate software bugs are the major challenging issues. To improve the timely and accurate software defect prediction, a novel technique called Nonparametric Statistical feature scaled QuAdratic regressive convolution Deep nEural Network (SQADEN) is introduced. The proposed SQADEN technique mainly includes two major processes namely metric or feature selection and classification. First, the SQADEN uses the nonparametric statistical Torgerson–Gower scaling technique for identifying the relevant software metrics by measuring the similarity using the dice coefficient. The feature selection process is used to minimize the time complexity of software fault prediction. With the selected metrics, software fault perdition with the help of the Quadratic Censored regressive convolution deep neural network-based classification. The deep learning classifier analyzes the training and testing samples using the contingency correlation coefficient. The softstep activation function is used to provide the final fault prediction results. To minimize the error, the Nelder–Mead method is applied to solve non-linear least-squares problems. Finally, accurate classification results with a minimum error are obtained at the output layer. Experimental evaluation is carried out with different quantitative metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure, and time complexity. The analyzed results demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed SQADEN technique with maximum accuracy, sensitivity and specificity by 3%, 3%, 2% and 3% and minimum time and space by 13% and 15% when compared with the two state-of-the-art methods.

文摘Skin lesions are in a category of disease that is both common in humans and a major cause of death.The classification accuracy of skin lesions is a crucial determinant of the success rate of curing lethal diseases.Deep Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs)are now the most prevalent computer algorithms for the purpose of disease classification.As with all algorithms,CNNs are sensitive to noise from imaging devices,which often contaminates the quality of the images that are fed into them.In this paper,a deep CNN(Inception-v3)is used to study the effect of image noise on the classification of skin lesions.Gaussian noise,impulse noise,and noise made up of a compound of the two are added to an image dataset,namely the Dermofit Image Library from the University of Edinburgh.Evaluations,based on t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding(t-SNE)visualization,Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC)analysis,and saliency maps,demonstrate the reliability of the Inception-v3 deep CNN in classifying noisy skin lesion images.
文摘Providing autonomous systems with an effective quantity and quality of information from a desired task is challenging. In particular, autonomous vehicles, must have a reliable vision of their workspace to robustly accomplish driving functions. Speaking of machine vision, deep learning techniques, and specifically convolutional neural networks, have been proven to be the state of the art technology in the field. As these networks typically involve millions of parameters and elements, designing an optimal architecture for deep learning structures is a difficult task which is globally under investigation by researchers. This study experimentally evaluates the impact of three major architectural properties of convolutional networks, including the number of layers, filters, and filter size on their performance. In this study, several models with different properties are developed,equally trained, and then applied to an autonomous car in a realistic simulation environment. A new ensemble approach is also proposed to calculate and update weights for the models regarding their mean squared error values. Based on design properties,performance results are reported and compared for further investigations. Surprisingly, the number of filters itself does not largely affect the performance efficiency. As a result, proper allocation of filters with different kernel sizes through the layers introduces a considerable improvement in the performance.Achievements of this study will provide the researchers with a clear clue and direction in designing optimal network architectures for deep learning purposes.

文摘In this study,we examined the efficacy of a deep convolutional neural network(DCNN)in recognizing concrete surface images and predicting the compressive strength of concrete.A digital single-lens reflex(DSLR)camera and microscope were simultaneously used to obtain concrete surface images used as the input data for the DCNN.Thereafter,training,validation,and testing of the DCNNs were performed based on the DSLR camera and microscope image data.Results of the analysis indicated that the DCNN employing DSLR image data achieved a relatively higher accuracy.The accuracy of the DSLR-derived image data was attributed to the relatively wider range of the DSLR camera,which was beneficial for extracting a larger number of features.Moreover,the DSLR camera procured more realistic images than the microscope.Thus,when the compressive strength of concrete was evaluated using the DCNN employing a DSLR camera,time and cost were reduced,whereas the usefulness increased.Furthermore,an indirect comparison of the accuracy of the DCNN with that of existing non-destructive methods for evaluating the strength of concrete proved the reliability of DCNN-derived concrete strength predictions.In addition,it was determined that the DCNN used for concrete strength evaluations in this study can be further expanded to detect and evaluate various deteriorative factors that affect the durability of structures,such as salt damage,carbonation,sulfation,corrosion,and freezing-thawing.

文摘Deep Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs)have achieved high accuracy in image classification tasks,however,most existing models are trained on high-quality images that are not subject to image degradation.In practice,images are often affected by various types of degradation which can significantly impact the performance of CNNs.In this work,we investigate the influence of image degradation on three typical image classification CNNs and propose a Degradation Type Adaptive Image Classification Model(DTA-ICM)to improve the existing CNNs’classification accuracy on degraded images.The proposed DTA-ICM comprises two key components:a Degradation Type Predictor(DTP)and a Degradation Type Specified Image Classifier(DTS-IC)set,which is trained on existing CNNs for specified types of degradation.The DTP predicts the degradation type of a test image,and the corresponding DTS-IC is then selected to classify the image.We evaluate the performance of both the proposed DTP and the DTA-ICMon the Caltech 101 database.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed DTP achieves an average accuracy of 99.70%.Moreover,the proposed DTA-ICM,based on AlexNet,VGG19,and ResNet152,exhibits an average accuracy improvement of 20.63%,18.22%,and 12.9%,respectively,compared with the original CNNs in classifying degraded images.It suggests that the proposed DTA-ICM can effectively improve the classification performance of existing CNNs on degraded images,which has important practical implications.

文摘As an important component of load transfer,various fatigue damages occur in the track as the rail service life and train traffic increase gradually,such as rail corrugation,rail joint damage,uneven thermite welds,rail squats fas-tener defects,etc.Real-time recognition of track defects plays a vital role in ensuring the safe and stable operation of rail transit.In this paper,an intelligent and innovative method is proposed to detect the track defects by using axle-box vibration acceleration and deep learning network,and the coexistence of the above-mentioned typical track defects in the track system is considered.Firstly,the dynamic relationship between the track defects(using the example of the fastening defects)and the axle-box vibration acceleration(ABVA)is investigated using the dynamic vehicle-track model.Then,a simulation model for the coupled dynamics of the vehicle and track with different track defects is established,and the wavelet power spectrum(WPS)analysis is performed for the vibra-tion acceleration signals of the axle box to extract the characteristic response.Lastly,using wavelet spectrum photos as input,an automatic detection technique based on the deep convolution neural network(DCNN)is sug-gested to realize the real-time intelligent detection and identification of various track problems.Thefindings demonstrate that the suggested approach achieves a 96.72%classification accuracy.
文摘Early diagnosis and detection are important tasks in controlling the spread of COVID-19.A number of Deep Learning techniques has been established by researchers to detect the presence of COVID-19 using CT scan images and X-rays.However,these methods suffer from biased results and inaccurate detection of the disease.So,the current research article developed Oppositional-based Chimp Optimization Algorithm and Deep Dense Convolutional Neural Network(OCOA-DDCNN)for COVID-19 prediction using CT images in IoT environment.The proposed methodology works on the basis of two stages such as pre-processing and prediction.Initially,CT scan images generated from prospective COVID-19 are collected from open-source system using IoT devices.The collected images are then preprocessed using Gaussian filter.Gaussian filter can be utilized in the removal of unwanted noise from the collected CT scan images.Afterwards,the preprocessed images are sent to prediction phase.In this phase,Deep Dense Convolutional Neural Network(DDCNN)is applied upon the pre-processed images.The proposed classifier is optimally designed with the consideration of Oppositional-basedChimp Optimization Algorithm(OCOA).This algorithm is utilized in the selection of optimal parameters for the proposed classifier.Finally,the proposed technique is used in the prediction of COVID-19 and classify the results as either COVID-19 or non-COVID-19.The projected method was implemented in MATLAB and the performances were evaluated through statistical measurements.The proposed method was contrasted with conventional techniques such as Convolutional Neural Network-Firefly Algorithm(CNN-FA),Emperor Penguin Optimization(CNN-EPO)respectively.The results established the supremacy of the proposed model.
文摘Offensive messages on social media,have recently been frequently used to harass and criticize people.In recent studies,many promising algorithms have been developed to identify offensive texts.Most algorithms analyze text in a unidirectional manner,where a bidirectional method can maximize performance results and capture semantic and contextual information in sentences.In addition,there are many separate models for identifying offensive texts based on monolin-gual and multilingual,but there are a few models that can detect both monolingual and multilingual-based offensive texts.In this study,a detection system has been developed for both monolingual and multilingual offensive texts by combining deep convolutional neural network and bidirectional encoder representations from transformers(Deep-BERT)to identify offensive posts on social media that are used to harass others.This paper explores a variety of ways to deal with multilin-gualism,including collaborative multilingual and translation-based approaches.Then,the Deep-BERT is tested on the Bengali and English datasets,including the different bidirectional encoder representations from transformers(BERT)pre-trained word-embedding techniques,and found that the proposed Deep-BERT’s efficacy outperformed all existing offensive text classification algorithms reaching an accuracy of 91.83%.The proposed model is a state-of-the-art model that can classify both monolingual-based and multilingual-based offensive texts.
文摘Combining both visible and infrared object information, multispectral data is a promising source data for automatic maritime ship recognition. In this paper, in order to take advantage of deep convolutional neural network and multispectral data, we model multispectral ship recognition task into a convolutional feature fusion problem, and propose a feature fusion architecture called Hybrid Fusion. We fine-tune the VGG-16 model pre-trained on ImageNet through three channels single spectral image and four channels multispectral images, and use existing regularization techniques to avoid over-fitting problem. Hybrid Fusion as well as the other three feature fusion architectures is investigated. Each fusion architecture consists of visible image and infrared image feature extraction branches, in which the pre-trained and fine-tuned VGG-16 models are taken as feature extractor. In each fusion architecture, image features of two branches are firstly extracted from the same layer or different layers of VGG-16 model. Subsequently, the features extracted from the two branches are flattened and concatenated to produce a multispectral feature vector, which is finally fed into a classifier to achieve ship recognition task. Furthermore, based on these fusion architectures, we also evaluate recognition performance of a feature vector normalization method and three combinations of feature extractors. Experimental results on the visible and infrared ship (VAIS) dataset show that the best Hybrid Fusion achieves 89.6% mean per-class recognition accuracy on daytime paired images and 64.9% on nighttime infrared images, and outperforms the state-of-the-art method by 1.4% and 3.9%, respectively.
文摘Complex proteins are needed for many biological activities.Folding amino acid chains reveals their properties and functions.They support healthy tissue structure,physiology,and homeostasis.Precision medicine and treatments require quantitative protein identification and function.Despite technical advances and protein sequence data exploration,bioinformatics’“basic structure”problem—the automatic deduction of a protein’s properties from its amino acid sequence—remains unsolved.Protein function inference from amino acid sequences is the main biological data challenge.This study analyzes whether raw sequencing can characterize biological facts.A massive corpus of protein sequences and the Globin-like superfamily’s related protein families generate a solid vector representation.A coding technique for each sequence in each family was devised using two representations to identify each amino acid precisely.A bispectral analysis converts encoded protein numerical sequences into images for better protein sequence and family discrimination.Training and validation employed 70%of the dataset,while 30%was used for testing.This paper examined the performance of multistage deep learning models for differentiating between sixteen protein families after encoding and representing each encoded sequence by a higher spectral representation image(Bispectrum).Cascading minimized false positive and negative cases in all phases.The initial stage focused on two classes(six groups and ten groups).The subsequent stages focused on the few classes almost accurately separated in the first stage and decreased the overlapping cases between families that appeared in single-stage deep learning classification.The single-stage technique had 64.2%+/-22.8%accuracy,63.3%+/-17.1%precision,and a 63.2%+/19.4%F1-score.The two-stage technique yielded 92.2%+/-4.9%accuracy,92.7%+/-7.0%precision,and a 92.3%+/-5.0%F1-score.This work provides balanced,reliable,and precise forecasts for all families in all measures.It ensured that the new model was resilient to family variances and provided high-scoring results.
文摘Proteins are essential for many biological functions.For example,folding amino acid chains reveals their functionalities by maintaining tissue structure,physiology,and homeostasis.Note that quantifiable protein characteristics are vital for improving therapies and precision medicine.The automatic inference of a protein’s properties from its amino acid sequence is called“basic structure”.Nevertheless,it remains a critical unsolved challenge in bioinformatics,although with recent technological advances and the investigation of protein sequence data.Inferring protein function from amino acid sequences is crucial in biology.This study considers using raw sequencing to explain biological facts using a large corpus of protein sequences and the Globin-like superfamily to generate a vector representation.The power of two representations was used to identify each amino acid,and a coding technique was established for each sequence family.Subsequently,the encoded protein numerical sequences are transformed into an image using bispectral analysis to identify essential characteristics for discriminating between protein sequences and their families.A deep Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)classifies the resulting images and developed non-normalized and normalized encoding techniques.Initially,the dataset was split 70/30 for training and testing.Correspondingly,the dataset was utilized for 70%training,15%validation,and 15%testing.The suggested methods are evaluated using accuracy,precision,and recall.The non-normalized method had 70%accuracy,72%precision,and 71%recall.68%accuracy,67%precision,and 67%recall after validation.Meanwhile,the normalized approach without validation had 92.4%accuracy,94.3%precision,and 91.1%recall.Validation showed 90%accuracy,91.2%precision,and 89.7%recall.Note that both algorithms outperform the rest.The paper presents that bispectrum-based nonlinear analysis using deep learning models outperforms standard machine learning methods and other deep learning methods based on convolutional architecture.They offered the best inference performance as the proposed approach improves categorization and prediction.Several instances show successful multi-class prediction in molecular biology’s massive data.

文摘With the development of Deep Convolutional Neural Networks(DCNNs),the extracted features for image recognition tasks have shifted from low-level features to the high-level semantic features of DCNNs.Previous studies have shown that the deeper the network is,the more abstract the features are.However,the recognition ability of deep features would be limited by insufficient training samples.To address this problem,this paper derives an improved Deep Fusion Convolutional Neural Network(DF-Net)which can make full use of the differences and complementarities during network learning and enhance feature expression under the condition of limited datasets.Specifically,DF-Net organizes two identical subnets to extract features from the input image in parallel,and then a well-designed fusion module is introduced to the deep layer of DF-Net to fuse the subnet’s features in multi-scale.Thus,the more complex mappings are created and the more abundant and accurate fusion features can be extracted to improve recognition accuracy.Furthermore,a corresponding training strategy is also proposed to speed up the convergence and reduce the computation overhead of network training.Finally,DF-Nets based on the well-known ResNet,DenseNet and MobileNetV2 are evaluated on CIFAR100,Stanford Dogs,and UECFOOD-100.Theoretical analysis and experimental results strongly demonstrate that DF-Net enhances the performance of DCNNs and increases the accuracy of image recognition.
