DeepWhaleNet: Climate Change-Aware FFT-Based Deep Neural Network for Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Climate change poses severe risks to the survival of many whale populations, whose habitats and migration patterns are affected by environmental changes. To detect these whales effectively, especially in deep-sea environments, we need to use AI-based techniques to handle the acoustic diversity and variability of different species. However, current methods for whale detection are based on pre- and post-processing steps that reduce their efficiency and generalizability. To address this issue, we present DeepWhaleNet, a novel deep-learning model that automates whale detection in Underwater Passive Acoustic Monitoring datasets. DeepWhaleNet simplifies the detection process by extracting relevant features from raw log-power spectrograms and helps protect these threatened species by supporting conservation efforts. Our model uses a larger short-time Fourier transform as input and a custom ResNet-18 architecture for classification, which enables it to separate whale sounds from noise and capture their temporal and spectral characteristics. We evaluate the performance of DeepWhaleNet and show that it surpasses state-of-the-art methods, achieving an 8.3% improvement in the F-1 score and 21% higher average precision of binary relevance than the baseline method. Moreover, our model demonstrates its versatility and suitability for species-specific retrieval problems through an ablation study on multi-label retrieval problems and a 99.1% recall for Blue Whales.

Automating cancer diagnosis using advanced deep learning techniques for multi-cancer image classification

Cancer detection poses a significant challenge for researchers and clinical experts due to its status as the leading cause of global mortality. Early detection is crucial, but traditional cancer detection methods often rely on invasive procedures and time-consuming analyses, creating a demand for more efficient and accurate solutions. This paper addresses these challenges by utilizing automated cancer detection through AI-based techniques, specifically focusing on deep learning models. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), including DenseNet121, DenseNet201, Xception, InceptionV3, MobileNetV2, NASNetLarge, NASNetMobile, InceptionResNetV2, VGG19, and ResNet152V2, are evaluated on image datasets for seven types of cancer: brain, oral, breast, kidney, Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, lung and colon, and cervical cancer. Initially, images undergo segmentation techniques, proceeded by contour feature extraction where parameters such as perimeter, area, and epsilon are computed. The models are rigorously evaluated, with DenseNet121 achieving the highest validation accuracy as 99.94%, 0.0017 as loss, and the lowest Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values as 0.036056 for training and 0.045826 for validation. These results revealed the capability of AI-based techniques in improving cancer detection accuracy, with DenseNet121 emerging as the most effective model in this study.

Artificial intelligence techniques for dynamic security assessments - a survey

The increasing uptake of converter-interfaced generation (CIG) is changing power system dynamics, rendering them extremely dependent on fast and complex control systems. Regularly assessing the stability of these systems across a wide range of operating conditions is thus a critical task for ensuring secure operation. However, the simultaneous simulation of both fast and slow (electromechanical) phenomena, along with an increased number of critical operating conditions, pushes traditional dynamic security assessments (DSA) to their limits. While DSA has served its purpose well, it will not be tenable in future electricity systems with thousands of power electronic devices at different voltage levels on the grid. Therefore, reducing both human and computational efforts required for stability studies is more critical than ever. In response to these challenges, several advanced simulation techniques leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) have been proposed in recent years. AI techniques can handle the increased uncertainty and complexity of power systems by capturing the non-linear relationships between the system’s operational conditions and their stability without solving the set of algebraic-differential equations that model the system. Once these relationships are established, system stability can be promptly and accurately evaluated for a wide range of scenarios. While hundreds of research articles confirm that AI techniques are paving the way for fast stability assessments, many questions and issues must still be addressed, especially regarding the pertinence of studying specific types of stability with the existing AI-based methods and their application in real-world scenarios. In this context, this article presents a comprehensive review of AI-based techniques for stability assessments in power systems. Different AI technical implementations, such as learning algorithms and the generation and treatment of input data, are widely discussed and contextualized. Their practical applications, considering the type of stability, system under study, and type of applications, are also addressed. We review the ongoing research efforts and the AI-based techniques put forward thus far for DSA, contextualizing and interrelating them. We also discuss the advantages, limitations, challenges, and future trends of AI techniques for stability studies.

A Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model for Metal Artifact Reduction in CT.

The presence of metal objects leads to corrupted CT projection measurements, resulting in metal artifacts in the reconstructed CT images. AI promises to offer improved solutions to estimate missing sinogram data for metal artifact reduction (MAR), as previously shown with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and generative adversarial networks (GANs). Recently, denoising diffusion probabilistic models (DDPM) have shown great promise in image generation tasks, potentially outperforming GANs. In this study, a DDPM-based approach is proposed for inpainting of missing sinogram data for improved MAR. The proposed model is unconditionally trained, free from information on metal objects, which can potentially enhance its generalization capabilities across different types of metal implants compared to conditionally trained approaches. The performance of the proposed technique was evaluated and compared to the state-of-the-art normalized MAR (NMAR) approach as well as to CNN-based and GAN-based MAR approaches. The DDPM-based approach provided significantly higher SSIM and PSNR, as compared to NMAR (SSIM: p [Formula: see text]; PSNR: p [Formula: see text]), the CNN (SSIM: p [Formula: see text]; PSNR: p [Formula: see text]) and the GAN (SSIM: p [Formula: see text]; PSNR: p <0.05) methods. The DDPM-MAR technique was further evaluated based on clinically relevant image quality metrics on clinical CT images with virtually introduced metal objects and metal artifacts, demonstrating superior quality relative to the other three models. In general, the AI-based techniques showed improved MAR performance compared to the non-AI-based NMAR approach. The proposed methodology shows promise in enhancing the effectiveness of MAR, and therefore improving the diagnostic accuracy of CT.

Artificial intelligence for cybersecurity monitoring of cyber-physical power electronic converters: a DC/DC power converter case study.

Power electronic converters are widely implemented in many types of power applications such as microgrids. Power converters can make a physical connection between the power resources and the power application. To control a power converter, required data such as the voltage and the current of that should be measured to be used in a control application. Therefore, a communication-based structure including sensors and communication links can be used to measure the desired data and transmit that to the controllers. So, a power converter-based system can be considered as a type of cyber-physical system, and it can be vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Then, it can strongly be recommended to use a strategy for a power converter-based system to monitor the system and identify the existence of cyber-attack in the system. In this study, artificial intelligence (AI) is deployed to calculate the value of the false data (i.e., constant false data, and time-varying false data) and detect false data injection cyber-attacks on power converters. Besides, to have a precise technical evaluation of the proposed methodology, that is evaluated under other issues, i.e., noise, and communication link delay. In the case of noise, the proposed strategy is examined under noises with different signal-to-noise ratios . Further, for the case of the communication delay, the system is examined under both symmetrical (i.e., same communication delay on all inputs) and unsymmetrical communication delays (i.e., different communication delay/delays on the inputs). In this work, artificial neural networks are implemented as the AI-based application, and two types of the networks, i.e., feedforward (as a basic type) and long short-term memory (LSTM)-based network as a more complex network are tested. Finally, three important AI-based techniques (regression, classification, and clustering) are examined. Based on the obtained results, this work can properly identify and calculate the false data in the system.

Fake speech detection using VGGish with attention block

While deep learning technologies have made remarkable progress in generating deepfakes, their misuse has become a well-known concern. As a result, the ubiquitous usage of deepfakes for increasing false information poses significant risks to the security and privacy of individuals. The primary objective of audio spoofing detection is to identify audio generated through numerous AI-based techniques. Several techniques for fake audio detection already exist using machine learning algorithms. However, they lack generalization and may not identify all types of AI-synthesized audios such as replay attacks, voice conversion, and text-to-speech (TTS). In this paper, a deep layered model, i.e., VGGish, along with an attention block, namely Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) for spoofing detection, is introduced. Our suggested model successfully classifies input audio into two classes: Fake and Real, converting them into mel-spectrograms, and extracting their most representative features due to the attention block. Our model is a significant technique to utilize for audio spoofing detection due to a simple layered architecture. It captures complex relationships in audio signals due to both spatial and channel features present in an attention module. To evaluate the effectiveness of our model, we have conducted in-depth testing using the ASVspoof 2019 dataset. The proposed technique achieved an EER of 0.52% for Physical Access (PA) attacks and 0.07 % for Logical Access (LA) attacks.

Leveraging radiomics and AI for precision diagnosis and prognostication of liver malignancies.

Liver tumors, whether primary or metastatic, have emerged as a growing concern with substantial global health implications. Timely identification and characterization of liver tumors are pivotal factors in order to provide optimum treatment. Imaging is a crucial part of the detection of liver tumors; however, conventional imaging has shortcomings in the proper characterization of these tumors which leads to the need for tissue biopsy. Artificial intelligence (AI) and radiomics have recently emerged as investigational opportunities with the potential to enhance the detection and characterization of liver lesions. These advancements offer opportunities for better diagnostic accuracy, prognostication, and thereby improving patient care. In particular, these techniques have the potential to predict the histopathology, genotype, and immunophenotype of tumors based on imaging data, hence providing guidance for personalized treatment of such tumors. In this review, we outline the progression and potential of AI in the field of liver oncology imaging, specifically emphasizing manual radiomic techniques and deep learning-based representations. We discuss how these tools can aid in clinical decision-making challenges. These challenges encompass a broad range of tasks, from prognosticating patient outcomes, differentiating benign treatment-related factors and actual disease progression, recognizing uncommon response patterns, and even predicting the genetic and molecular characteristics of the tumors.

Exploring explainable AI in the tax domain

AbstractThis paper analyses whether current explainable AI (XAI) techniques can help to address taxpayer concerns about the use of AI in taxation. As tax authorities around the world increase their use of AI-based techniques, taxpayers are increasingly at a loss about whether and how the ensuing decisions follow the procedures required by law and respect their substantive rights. The use of XAI has been proposed as a response to this issue, but it is still an open question whether current XAI techniques are enough to meet existing legal requirements. The paper approaches this question in the context of a case study: a prototype tax fraud detector trained on an anonymized dataset of real-world cases handled by the Buenos Aires (Argentina) tax authority. The decisions produced by this detector are explained through the use of various classification methods, and the outputs of these explanation models are evaluated on their explanatory power and on their compliance with the legal obligation that tax authorities provide the rationale behind their decision-making. We conclude the paper by suggesting technical and legal approaches for designing explanation mechanisms that meet the needs of legal explanation in the tax domain.

Using AI to identify left ventricular ejection fraction from the ECG: The SOLOMAX (SOciaL NetwOrk of MedicAl Experiences) project

Aim: The interest in machine learning-based algorithms in the cardiovascular field is rapidly growing, especially for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Recent evidence has demonstrated that certain electrocardiographic (ECG) parameters are predominantly associated with systolic function, estimated as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by echocardiography, albeit with still relatively low accuracy. Consequently, this study aims to develop an AI-based model capable of predicting LVEF from ECG data in an Italian population. Methods: Within the SOLOMAX project, we collected paired ECG-Echocardiography exams from 105 patients (64.82±16.02y;62.86%male). Precisely, we excluded patients with atrial fibrillation at the time of the ECG, PMK or electrostimulated rhythm, valve prostheses, previous cardiac surgery, O2 therapy or COPD, previous ablation or invasive electrophysiology procedures, currently hospitalized for Takotsubo or ACS, heart failure exacerbation, inotropic therapy, ACS over the last 3 months. We recorded anthropometric, clinical, biochemical, ECG, and Echocardiography parameters. The collected data was studied using AI-based techniques to create a new model to predict LVEF from ECG. Using an approach based on evolutionary algorithms, genetic programming was used. This approach solves a symbolic regression problem through genetic algorithms and provides a mathematical model of the relationship between ECG parameters and LVEF. The formula obtained was then used to build a simple explainable classifier, which provides a global interpretation of the link between ECG parameters and LVEF. Results: The performance of the proposed approach and the reliability of the results were assessed using the k-fold cross-validation method and by estimating standard metrics derived from the confusion matrix associated with a binary classifier, that is, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, and F-Measure. The proposed approach consistently demonstrated its ability to distinguish patients with preserved LVEF from those with reduced LVEF. Each metric averaged across all experiments scored approximately 95%. Furthermore, in the expression generated by the AI model, the axes of the P, QRS, and T waves play a prominent role, as they are likely to provide a better interpretation of the three-dimensional cardiac geometry and, consequently, cardiac function. Conclusions: AI applied to ECG data can be used to create cost-effective diagnostic and predictive tools for assessing LVEF. Indeed, the obtained formula highlights the relationship between ECG parameters and LVEF, as well as its complexity, which can aid in detecting heart diseases.
