Cross-attention Based Text-image Transformer for Visual Question Answering

Background: Visual question answering (VQA) is a challenging task that requires multimodal reasoning and knowledge. The objective of VQA is to answer natural language questions based on corresponding present information in a given image. The challenge of VQA is to extract visual and textual features and pass them into a common space. However, the method faces the challenge of object detection being present in an image and finding the relationship between objects. Methods: In this study, we explored different methods of feature fusion for VQA, using pretrained models to encode the text and image features and then applying different attention mechanisms to fuse them. We evaluated our methods on the DAQUAR dataset. Results: We used three metrics to measure the performance of our methods: WUPS, Acc, and F1. We found that concatenating raw text and image features performs slightly better than selfattention for VQA. We also found that using text as query and image as key and value performs worse than other methods of cross-attention or self-attention for VQA because it might not capture the bidirectional interactions between the text and image modalities Conclusion: In this paper, we presented a comparative study of different feature fusion methods for VQA, using pre-trained models to encode the text and image features and then applying different attention mechanisms to fuse them. We showed that concatenating raw text and image features is a simple but effective method for VQA while using text as query and image as key and value is a suboptimal method for VQA. We also discussed the limitations and future directions of our work.

Design and analysis of face recognition system based on VGGFace-16 with various classifiers

This research presents a face recognition system based on different classifiers that deal with various face positions. The proposed system involves the extraction of features through the VGG-Face-16 deep neural network, which only extracts essential features of input images, leading to an improved recognition step and enhanced algorithm efficiency, while the recognition involves the radial basis function in support vector machine (SVM) classifier and evaluate the performance of the system. Also, the system is designed and implemented later by using other classifiers; they are K-neareste2 neighbour (KNN) classifiers, logistic regression (LR), gradient boosting (XGBoost), decision tree classifier (DT) and Naive Bayes classifier (NB). The proposed algorithm was tested with the four face databases: AT&T, PINs Face, linear friction welding (LFW) and real database. The database was divided into two groups: One contains a percentage of images that are used for training and the second contains a percentage of images (remainder) which was used for testing. The results show that the classification by RBF in SVM has the highest recognition rate in the case of using small, medium and large databases; it was 100% in AT&T and Real database, while its efficiency appears to be lower when using large-size databases whereas it is 96% in PINs database and 60.1% in LFW database.

MISP-Fuse: A progressive fusion network guided by Multi-Information supervision

The fusion of infrared and visible images aims to synthesize an image that combines the advantageous characteristics of both image sources. Nevertheless, existing image fusion algorithms often struggle to extract relevant feature information from the source images and find it challenging to balance the significance of different modality information within the source images. This leads to suboptimal fusion results and inadequately serve advanced downstream visual tasks. In order to confront this challenge, a novel image fusion algorithm, denoted as Multiple Information Supervised Progressive Fusion Network (MISP-Fuse), has been proposed. Specifically, MISP-Fuse employs an innovative and robust multi-stage encoder-decoder network called Full Scale Feature Residual network (FSFR) to extract spatial context and detailed feature information corresponding to infrared and visible images. Within this encoder-decoder network, source image feature information is progressively extracted at different stages, which are recombined at multiple scales and distilled for crucial information. Finally, the fusion image is generated through a spatial localization module named as Spatial Localization Network (SLNet). MISP-Fuse incorporates a multi-information supervision mechanism to establish a linkage between different modality information in the infrared and visible source images. It ensures that the resulting fused image not only aligns with human visual perception but also effectively serves advanced downstream visual tasks. The comparative experiments utilizing diverse image fusion benchmark datasets has been conducted. In comparison to other algorithms, MISP-Fuse demonstrated significant enhancements in comprehensive image fusion metrics, including Average Gradient (AG), Sum of Correlated Differences (SCD), and Correlation Coefficient (CC).

Enhanced Virtual Try on for Clothing using Deep learning

Abstract: An increasing number of individuals are shopping online, particularly for clothing. However, while purchasing online, actual try-ons are not allowed, which limits the customer’s ability to see how a garment would appear on them. To enable buyers to virtually try on the desired clothing from an online store, an imagebased try-on system was devised. The ability to practically put on several clothes has increased customer interest in shopping. Image Recognition and Feature Extraction was the important part of the model to get desired outcomes. And To address these problems, we implement the CP-VTON+ (Clothing shape and texture Preserving VTON), which performs substan- tially better than the most advanced in sense of both quantitative and qualitative evaluations. The CP-VTON+ model not only adapt to detangle clothes from the person, but also maintains the clothing’s details on the try-on outcomes.

Next, using the CNN's capacity to extract hierarchical features from raw pixel data, a custom deep CNN architecture is trained on this dataset to efficiently classify diverse food items and achieve high accuracy in differentiating between different dishes. Furthermore, we tackle the problem of calorie prediction by employing regression models that include features extracted from the CNN, which allows one to forecast the calorie content of a food item based on its visual attributes. Our technique intends to enable users to make more educated nutritional decisions and better control their caloric intake by fusing image categorization with calorie prediction. The suggested approach shows encouraging results in terms of food item classification accuracy and precision in calorie estimate. Its possible uses include promoting better eating practices and assisting individuals, dietitians, and the food industry with their dietary monitoring.

Performance Analysis: Object Detection System for Low Illumination

Abstract: Abnormal activity detection plays a very important role in surveillance applications. The existing research on surveillance for daytime has achieved better performance by detecting and tracking objects using deep learning algorithms. However, it is difficult to achieve the same performance for night vision mainly due to low illumination. Deep learning is a powerful machine learning technique in which the object detector automatically learns image features required for detection tasks. It is required to generate a model that detects objects under low illumination. The approach is to use thermal infrared images and detect external objects, if any, and classify whether it is human or animal in an isolation area. With the rapid growth of deep learning, more efficient techniques will be implemented to solve the problems of object detection using neural networks and deep learning

Detection and diagnosis of automated breast ultrasound in patients with BI-RADS category 4 microcalcifications: a retrospective study

BackgroundAutomated Breast Ultrasound (AB US) has shown good application value and prospects in breast disease screening and diagnosis. The aim of the study was to explore the ability of AB US to detect and diagnose mammographically Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 4 microcalcifications.Methods575 pathologically confirmed mammographically BI-RADS category 4 microcalcifications from January 2017 to June 2021 were included. All patients also completed AB US examinations. Based on the final pathological results, analyzed and summarized the AB US image features, and compared the evaluation results with mammography, to explore the detection and diagnostic ability of AB US for these suspicious microcalcifications.Results250 were finally confirmed as malignant and 325 were benign. Mammographic findings including microcalcifications morphology (61/80 with amorphous, coarse heterogeneous and fine pleomorphic, 13/14 with fine-linear or branching), calcification distribution (189/346 with grouped, 40/67 with linear and segmental), associated features (70/96 with asymmetric shadow), higher BI-RADS category with 4B (88/120) and 4 C (73/38) showed higher incidence in malignant lesions, and were the independent factors associated with malignant microcalcifications. 477 (477/575, 83.0%) microcalcifications were detected by AB US, including 223 malignant and 254 benign, with a significantly higher detection rate for malignant lesions (x2 = 12.20, P < 0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed microcalcifications with architectural distortion (odds ratio [OR] = 0.30, P = 0.014), with amorphous, coarse heterogeneous and fine pleomorphic morphology (OR = 3.15, P = 0.037), grouped (OR = 1.90, P = 0.017), liner and segmental distribution (OR = 8.93, P = 0.004) were the independent factors which could affect the detectability of AB US for microcalcifications. In AB US, malignant calcification was more frequent in a mass (104/154) or intraductal (20/32), and with ductal changes (30/41) or architectural distortion (58/68), especially with the both (12/12).

Malignant calcification is more common in a mass and intraductal in AB US, and tend to associated with architectural distortion or duct changes. Also, AB US has higher sensitivity than mammography to malignant microcalcification, which is expected to become an effective supplementary examination method for breast microcalcifications, especially in dense breasts.

Skin Cancer Segmentation using CNN

This groundbreaking research introduces a comprehensive strategy for advancing medical image segmentation, merging two pivotal concepts to significantly enhance both the accuracy and efficiency of the segmentation process. The first component of our approach involves the integration of polar transformations as a preprocessing step applied to the original dataset. This transformative technique is designed to address the challenges associated with segmenting single structures of elliptical shape in medical images, such as organs (e.g., heart and kidneys), skin lesions, polyps, and various abnormalities. By centering the polar transformation on the object's focal point, a reduction in dimensionality is achieved, coupled with a distinct separation of segmentation and localization tasks. Two distinct methodologies for selecting an optimal polar origin are proposed: one involving estimation through a segmentation neural network trained on non-polar images, and the other employing a dedicated neural network trained to pre dict the optimal origin. The second key element of our approach is around the integration of the DoubleU-Net architecture, a powerful encoder-decoder model specifically designed for the task of semantic image segmentation. DoubleU- Net is a group of two U-Net architectures, each with a specific purpose. The initial U-Net is pre-trained on VGG-19 as the encoder and uses features learned from ImageNet to provide efficient information transfer. In order to store more semantic information and content, a second U-Net was added to the base to enhance the capabilities of the network. Join Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP) to develop network data extraction content. The combination of DoubleU-Net architecture and joint transformation as a step forward shows good segmentation performance in different clinical tasks, including liver segmentation, polyp detection vision, skin segmentation, and epicardial fat tissue segmentation. It shows that various medical projects, including various diagnostic methods such as colonoscopy, dermoscopy, microscopy, have a positive impact on the plan. More importantly, the method performs well in difficult cases, such as the segmentation of small and flat polyps in CVC-ClinicDB and the 2015 subset of the MICCAI Automated Polyp Detection dataset. The results demonstrate the accuracy and generality of the combination, making it the best way to evaluate medical images in context; Our study has revealed a new method of skin cancer diagnosis that combines the power of deep learning with innovation. Advanced technology. The combination of dual U-Net architecture and polar coordinate transformation not only improves the accuracy of classification of lesions but also improves the robustness of the model to changes in image features. This study contributes to the development of computer-aided diagnostic systems for early diagnosis. Experimental results show that our method provides good accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in detecting malignant and benign tumors. Additionally, we are conducting ablation studies to determine the contribution of each presentation and treatment of skin cancer to ultimately benefit patients and determine these benefits. We also apply the transformation of the joint as the first step to improve the discrimination ability of the model. This mechanical change effectively reduces the impact caused by changes in wound size, shape, and direction by displaying the original image of the polar system. By standardizing the representation of skin diseases, polar transformation improves the model's ability to generalize across different data sets and improves overall performance.

ICC-BiFormer: A Deep-Learning Model for Near-Earth Asteroid Detection via Image Compression and Local Feature Extraction

Detecting near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is crucial for research in solar system and planetary science. In recent year, deep-learning methods have almost dominated the task. Since NEAs represent only one-thousandth of the pixels in images, we proposed an ICC-BiFormer model that includes an image compression and contrast enhancement block and a BiFormer model to capture local features in input images, which is different from previous models based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Furthermore, we utilize a larger input size of the model, which corresponds to the side length of the input image matrix, and design a cropping algorithm to prevent NEAs from being truncated and better divide NEAs and satellites. We apply our ICC-BiFormer model into a dataset of approximately 20,000 streak and 40,000 non-streak images to train a binary classification model. The ICC-BiFormer achieves 99.88% accuracy, which is superior to existing models. Focusing on local features has been proven effective in detecting NEAs.

Radiometric Infrared Thermography of Solar Photovoltaic Systems: An Explainable Predictive Maintenance Approach for Remote Aerial Diagnostic Monitoring

Solar photovoltaic (SPV) arrays are crucial components of clean and sustainable energy infrastructure. However, SPV panels are susceptible to thermal degradation defects that can impact their performance, thereby necessitating timely and accurate fault detection to maintain optimal energy generation. The considered case study focuses on an intelligent fault detection and diagnosis (IFDD) system for the analysis of radiometric infrared thermography (IRT) of SPV arrays in a predictive maintenance setting, enabling remote inspection and diagnostic monitoring of the SPV power plant sites. The proposed IFDD system employs a custom-developed deep learning approach which relies on convolutional neural networks for effective multiclass classification of defect types. The diagnosis of SPV panels is a challenging task for issues such as IRT data scarcity, defect-patterns’ complexity, and low thermal image acquisition quality due to noise and calibration issues. Hence, this research carefully prepares a customized high-quality but severely imbalanced six-class thermographic radiometric dataset of SPV panels. With respect to previous approaches, numerical temperature values in floating-point are used to train and validate the predictive models. The trained models display high accuracy for efficient thermal anomaly diagnosis. Finally, to create a trust in the IFDD system, the process underlying the classification model is investigated with perceptive explainability, for portraying the most discriminant image features, and mathematical-structure-based interpretability, to achieve multiclass feature clustering.

Classification of Caries Based on CBCT: A Deep Learning Network Interpretability Study.

This study aimed to create a caries classification scheme based on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and develop two deep learning models to improve caries classification accuracy. A total of 2713 axial slices were obtained from CBCT images of 204 carious teeth. Both classification models were trained and tested using the same pretrained classification networks on the dataset, including ResNet50_vd, MobileNetV3_large_ssld, and ResNet50_vd_ssld. The first model was used directly to classify the original images (direct classification model). The second model incorporated a presegmentation step for interpretation (interpretable classification model). Performance evaluation metrics including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score were calculated. The Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations (LIME) method was employed to elucidate the decision-making process of the two models. In addition, a minimum distance between caries and pulp was introduced for determining the treatment strategies for type II carious teeth. The direct model that utilized the ResNet50_vd_ssld network achieved top accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score of 0.700, 0.786, 0.606, and 0.616, respectively. Conversely, the interpretable model consistently yielded metrics surpassing 0.917, irrespective of the network employed. The LIME algorithm confirmed the interpretability of the classification models by identifying key image features for caries classification. Evaluation of treatment strategies for type II carious teeth revealed a significant negative correlation (p < 0.01) with the minimum distance. These results demonstrated that the CBCT-based caries classification scheme and the two classification models appeared to be acceptable tools for the diagnosis and categorization of dental caries.

A non-invasive preoperative prediction model for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer based on a machine learning approach: combining ultrasonographic parameters and breast gamma specific imaging features.

The most common route of breast cancer metastasis is through the mammary lymphatic network. An accurate assessment of the axillary lymph node (ALN) burden before surgery can avoid unnecessary axillary surgery, consequently preventing surgical complications. In this study, we aimed to develop a non-invasive prediction model incorporating breast specific gamma image (BSGI) features and ultrasonographic parameters to assess axillary lymph node status. Cohorts of breast cancer patients who underwent surgery between 2012 and 2021 were created (The training set included 1104 ultrasound images and 940 BSGI images from 235 patients, the test set included 568 ultrasound images and 296 BSGI images from 99 patients) for the development of the prediction model. six machine learning (ML) methods and recursive feature elimination were trained in the training set to create a strong prediction model. Based on the best-performing model, we created an online calculator that can make a linear predictor in patients easily accessible to clinicians. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and calibration curve are used to verify the model performance respectively and evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the model. Six ultrasonographic parameters (transverse diameter of tumour, longitudinal diameter of tumour, lymphatic echogenicity, transverse diameter of lymph nodes, longitudinal diameter of lymph nodes, lymphatic color Doppler flow imaging grade) and one BSGI features (axillary mass status) were selected based on the best-performing model. In the test set, the support vector machines' model showed the best predictive ability (AUC = 0.794, sensitivity = 0.641, specificity = 0.8, PPV = 0.676, NPV = 0.774 and accuracy = 0.737). An online calculator was established for clinicians to predict patients' risk of ALN metastasis ( https://wuqian.shinyapps.io/shinybsgi/ ). The result in ROC showed the model could benefit from incorporating BSGI feature. This study developed a non-invasive prediction model that incorporates variables using ML method and serves to clinically predict ALN metastasis and help in selection of the appropriate treatment option.

Interactive Surgical Training in Neuroendoscopy: Real-Time Anatomical Feature Localization using Natural Language Expressions.

This study addresses challenges in surgical education, particularly in neuroendoscopy, where the demand for optimized workflow conflicts with the need for trainees' active participation in surgeries. To overcome these challenges, we propose a framework that accurately identifies anatomical structures within images guided by language descriptions, facilitating authentic and interactive learning experiences in neuroendoscopy. Utilizing the encoder-decoder architecture of a conventional transformer, our framework processes multimodal inputs (images and language descriptions) to identify and localize features in neuroendoscopic images.

Utilizing evaluation metrics, including "R@n," "IoU= θ," "mIoU," and top-1 accuracy, we systematically benchmark our framework against state-of-the-art methodologies. The framework demonstrates excellent generalization, surpassing the compared methods with 93.67 % accuracy and 76.08 % mIoU on unseen data. It also exhibits better computational speed compared with other methods. Qualitative results affirms the framework's effectiveness in precise localization of referred anatomical features within neuroendoscopic images. The framework's adeptness at localizing anatomical features using language descriptions positions it as a valuable tool for integration into future interactive clinical learning systems, enhancing surgical training in neuroendoscopy. The exemplary performance reinforces the framework's potential in enhancing surgical education, leading to improved skills and outcomes for trainees in neuroendoscopy.

Exploring the Differences in Tree Species Classification between Typical Forest Regions in Northern and Southern China

Focusing on the trend of continuously seeking high-precision tree species classification results in small areas from the perspectives of sensors and classification algorithms. This study aimed to explore the effects of data sources, classifiers, and seasons on classification accuracy in regions with significant environmental variation, examining patterns of tree species classification to enhance the transferability of classification. Considering two typical forest distribution regions in the north and south of China, this study utilized the revisitation cycle and open-source advantages of Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8. Leveraging the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, this study captured spectral features, vegetation indices, and texture features for single seasonal and seasonal combination images. With the assistance of Sentinel-1A and SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) DEM (Digital Elevation Model), backscattering coefficient features and topographical features were extracted and input with features captured from Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 into three types of classifiers: random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and gradient tree boosting (GTB) for major tree species classification. In this research, we discovered that the best classification for single season in the northern study area was spring, whereas, for the southern study area, it was winter. Seasonal combination images effectively improved the classification accuracy of single seasonal images, with Sentinel-2 imagery displaying better classification performance compared to Landsat-8, and the optimal classifier differing between the north and the south. The inclusion of topographical or backscattering coefficient features in the four-season combination imagery contributed to improvements in classification accuracy, with topographical features significantly enhancing the classification performance in the topographically varied southern study area. The evaluation of feature importance indicated that elevation was the most critical feature for classification, while spectral features and vegetation indices were also significant. In the southern study area with large topographical discrepancies, subdividing into different terrain units led to improved tree species classification accuracy in medium-altitude, gentle slope areas. These findings provide insights into the regularity of enhancing tree species classification accuracy in environmentally diverse areas through the use of multi-source remote sensing data and multi-seasonal imagery. Consequently, the results offer a reference for the identification of tree species across large areas and the creation of spatial distribution maps.
