Precision Detection of Salt Stress in Soybean Seedlings Based on Deep Learning and Chlorophyll Fluorescence Imaging.

Soil salinization poses a critical challenge to global food security, impacting plant growth, development, and crop yield. This study investigates the efficacy of deep learning techniques alongside chlorophyll fluorescence (ChlF) imaging technology for discerning varying levels of salt stress in soybean seedlings. Traditional methods for stress identification in plants are often laborious and time-intensive, prompting the exploration of more efficient approaches. A total of six classic convolutional neural network (CNN) models-AlexNet, GoogLeNet, ResNet50, ShuffleNet, SqueezeNet, and MobileNetv2-are evaluated for salt stress recognition based on three types of ChlF images. Results indicate that ResNet50 outperforms other models in classifying salt stress levels across three types of ChlF images. Furthermore, feature fusion after extracting three types of ChlF image features in the average pooling layer of ResNet50 significantly enhanced classification accuracy, achieving the highest accuracy of 98.61% in particular when fusing features from three types of ChlF images. UMAP dimensionality reduction analysis confirms the discriminative power of fused features in distinguishing salt stress levels. These findings underscore the efficacy of deep learning and ChlF imaging technologies in elucidating plant responses to salt stress, offering insights for precision agriculture and crop management. Overall, this study demonstrates the potential of integrating deep learning with ChlF imaging for precise and efficient crop stress detection, offering a robust tool for advancing precision agriculture. The findings contribute to enhancing agricultural sustainability and addressing global food security challenges by enabling more effective crop stress management.

Integrating Clinical Data and Radiomics and Deep Learning Features for End-to-End Delayed Cerebral Ischemia Prediction on Noncontrast CT.

Delayed cerebral ischemia is hard to diagnose early due to gradual, symptomless development. This study aimed to develop an automated model for predicting delayed cerebral ischemia following aneurysmal SAH on NCCT. This retrospective study included 400 patients with aneurysmal SAH (156 with delayed cerebral ischemia) who underwent NCCT. The study used ATT-Deeplabv3+ for automatically segmenting hemorrhagic regions using semisupervised learning. Principal component analysis was used for reducing the dimensionality of deep learning features extracted from the average pooling layer of ATT-DeepLabv3+. The classification model integrated clinical data, radiomics, and deep learning features to predict delayed cerebral ischemia. Feature selection involved Pearson correlation coefficients, least absolute shrinkage, and selection operator regression. We developed models based on clinical features, clinical-radiomics, and a combination of clinical, radiomics, and deep learning. The study selected logistic regression, Naive Bayes, Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost), and multilayer perceptron as classifiers. The performance of segmentation and classification models was evaluated on their testing sets using the Dice similarity coefficient for segmentation, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and calibration curves for classification. The segmentation process achieved a Dice similarity coefficient of 0.91 and the average time of 0.037 s/image. Seventeen features were selected to calculate the radiomics score. The clinical-radiomics-deep learning model with multilayer perceptron achieved the highest AUC of 0.84 (95% CI, 0.72-0.97), which outperformed the clinical-radiomics model (P = .002) and the clinical features model (P = .001) with multilayer perceptron. The performance of clinical-radiomics-deep learning model using AdaBoost was significantly superior to its clinical-radiomics model (P = .027). The performance of the clinical-radiomics-deep learning model and the clinical-radiomics model with logistic regression notably exceeded that of the model based solely on clinical features (P = .028; P = .046). The AUC of the clinical-radiomics-deep learning model with multilayer perceptron (P < .001) and the clinical-radiomics model with logistic regression (P = .046) were significantly higher than the clinical model with logistic regression. Of all models, the clinical-radiomics-deep learning model with multilayer perceptron showed best calibration. The proposed 2-stage end-to-end model not only achieves rapid and accurate segmentation but also demonstrates superior diagnostic performance with high AUC values and good calibration in the clinical-radiomics-deep learning model, suggesting its potential to enhance delayed cerebral ischemia detection and treatment strategies.

The proposed model is a ten-layered CNN that contains a max pooling layer, a Global Average Pooling layer, four convolution layers, two dropout layers for overfitting prevention, and two fully connected layers. The efficiency of the suggested method was assessed using the ten-fold-cross validation technique and the EEG records of 14 healthy subjects and 14 SZ patients. The obtained mean accuracy score was 99.18 %. To confirm the high mean accuracy attained, we tested the model on unseen data with a near-perfect accuracy score (almost 100 %). In addition, the results we obtained outperform numerous other comparable works.

Globally, it accounts for 60–80% of dementia cases, thereby raising the need for an accurate and effective early classification. The proposed work used a healthy aging dataset from the USA and focused on three transfer learning approaches: VGG16, VGG19, and Alex Net. This work leveraged how the convolutional model and pooling layers work to improve and reduce overfitting, despite challenges in training the numerical dataset. VGG was preferably chosen as a hidden layer as it has a more diverse, deeper, and simpler architecture with better performance when dealing with larger datasets. It consumes less memory and training time. A comparative analysis was performed using machine learning and neural network algorithm techniques. Performance metrics such as accuracy, error rate, precision, recall, F1 score, sensitivity, specificity, kappa statistics, ROC, and RMSE were experimented with and compared. The accuracy was 100% for VGG16 and VGG19 and 98.20% for Alex Net. The precision was 99.9% for VGG16, 96.6% for VGG19, and 100% for Alex Net; the recall values were 99.9% for all three cases of VGG16, VGG19, and Alex Net; and the sensitivity metric was 96.8% for VGG16, 97.9% for VGG19, and 98.7% for Alex Net, which has outperformed when compared with the existing approaches for the classification of Alzheimer’s disease. This research contributes to the advancement of predictive knowledge, leading to future empirical evaluation, experimentation, and testing in the biomedical field.

Specifically, in the computer vision, numerous deep learning models have been proposed, leading to a competition between transformers and convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Since the introduction of Vision Transformers (ViT), many transformer models have been advocated for computer vision, often overshadowing CNNs.

Incremental-based YoloV3 model with hyper-parameter optimization for product image classification in E-commerce sector

Over the past few years, the E-commerce industry has grown tremendously for selling products to consumers. Here, the consumer can easily purchase the products from their residing seats and gets the products at the door step. Also, the image quality is suggested and also the image classification is intruded to meet the consumer prerequisite. Most of the image classification models are developed by machine learning approaches to improve the reliability, scalability, and accuracy level. Due to the heterogeneous nature of images, it restricts the features and lengthy dimensions for datasets which it degrades the performance whereas the classification of products becomes a cumbersome situation. In order to resolve the problem raised by existing methods, a novel product image classification model is proposed for the fashion E-commerce sector. The prime aspect of the proposed model is to build an effective E-commerce sector for a layman, where every individual can purchase the products appropriately. Initially, the dataset is constructed with diverse product images that are obtained from different E-commerce fields with various classes. Consequently, a novel Incremental-based Improved YoloV3 with Hyper-parameter Optimization (II-Yolov3-HO) model is introduced to enhance the classification performance. In the proposed model, some of the hyper parameters like convolution and pooling layers are replaced with the Visual Geometry Group16 (VGG16) model, the remaining convolutional layers are enhanced by the atrous convolution operation, and pooling layers are modified with Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP). In entire architecture, the weight factor is optimized using Predator-based Squirrel Search Algorithm (PDP-SSA) algorithm. Thus, the new E-commerce sector becomes free to categorize the products, and if it deals with a new product, it is declared as unknown data, which is then trained again in the proposed model. Hence, the concept of classification score matching with the threshold value is accomplished to deal the untrained product and the training weight is updated optimally using the proposed PDP-SSA. Finally, the enhanced model is compared over the state-of-the-art classification, provides the expected result for significantly classifying the multiple classes of products. The developed PDP-SSA-II-YoloV3-HO model is also able to perform recommendations in E-commerce sites even when the input is given as images other than text for searching the items. These uploaded images are analyzed in the developed II-Yolov3-HO model for providing the relevant items to the customer based on their features. The developed PDP-SSA-II-YoloV3-HO model achieves 99.46 % regarding accuracy. Throughout the validation, the developed model outperforms enhanced and reliable performance than the existing approaches.

Here, the main objective of the developed algorithm helps to maximize accuracy in ID.FindingsThroughout the experimental findings, the developed model provides 86% of accuracy. Thus, the finding of the developed model shows less detecting time and higher detection efficiency.

Short-term wind power forecasting based on multi-scale receptive field-mixer and conditional mixture copula

Integrating renewable wind power (WP) into the grid exacerbates variability and challenges reliability. Establishing an effective forecasting system is crucial for risk avoidance, but achieving effective, interpretable, and accurate predictions remains an obstacle due to the high volatility and uncertainty of WP. This study proposes an innovative and trustworthy wind power forecasting system combined with point and interval predictions. Specifically, the adaptive multi-scale convolutional receptive field (AMSCF) combined with gated recurrent unit (GRU) for WP point prediction is proposed to capture the spatiotemporal dependencies of WP generation. This AMSCF method uses different size receptive fields, fuses them using channel dimension concatenation, operates pooling layer and adaptive fusion through field attention, which extracts hierarchical features for WP forecasting. Then conditional mixture Copula (Con-mCopula) function integrated with multiobjective optimizer is established for WP interval prediction, which reduces the WP interval prediction accuracy error as some information neglected. The wind power cluster dataset from Germany was selected for experiments. Based on the results, for both datasets, the designed prediction system can achieve better point and interval prediction performance resulting in a reduction of mean absolute error (MAE) by approximately 40 % compared to other existing components in the market. This study deconstructs the “Black Box” in deep network for energy forecasting through interpretability analysis, which accelerates the development of AI technology in WP forecasting system and provides decision-makers with trustworthy WP forecasting assistance.

A Robust Deep Learning Framework Based on Spectrograms for Heart Sound Classification.

Heart sound analysis plays an important role in early detecting heart disease. However, manual detection requires doctors with extensive clinical experience, which increases uncertainty for the task, especially in medically underdeveloped areas. This paper proposes a robust neural network structure with an improved attention module for automatic classification of heart sound wave. In the preprocessing stage, noise removal with Butterworth bandpass filter is first adopted, and then heart sound recordings are converted into time-frequency spectrum by short-time Fourier transform (STFT). The model is driven by STFT spectrum. It automatically extracts features through four down sample blocks with different filters. Subsequently, an improved attention module based on Squeeze-and-Excitation module and coordinate attention module is developed for feature fusion. Finally, the neural network will give a category for heart sound waves based on the learned features. The global average pooling layer is adopted for reducing the model's weight and avoiding overfitting, while focal loss is further introduced as the loss function to minimize the data imbalance problem. Validation experiments have been conducted on two publicly available datasets, and the results well demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of our method.

A Divide-and-Rule Combined Learning Method for Truly Multivariate Time Series Prediction

Multivariate time series prediction is a significant research area that aims to forecast future values based on past observations. Deep learning models with attention mechanisms have shown good predictive performance by emphasizing optimal-related sequences in the target series. However, these models ignore mutation information of nontarget sequences and the long short-term dependencies. To this end, a divide-and-rule combined learning method is proposed to address these limitations, which uses differentiated feature extractors to process different implicit features. First, we design a spatial and temporal information extractor to extract the time-dimensional feature information in the separation stage. Then, a multivariate mutation information extractor is constructed by convolution and maximum pooling layer to capture mutation information of nontarget sequences. Subsequently, the decoder component of the encoder-decoder model extracts long short-term dependencies while preserving the information of the target sequence to be predicted. Finally, in the cooperation stage, a feature fusion method based on a point attention mechanism is proposed, which can assign individual weights to each feature point and enhance the ability to focus on local areas. Experimental results on five real datasets in different domains show that the proposed method has better predictive performance compared to other baseline models.

Operational risk assessment of hydropower units based on PSSCA-VMD-CNN-GBiLSTM and multi-feature fusion

Hydroelectric units are an essential part of hydropower plants nowadays, and assessing and predicting the operating conditions of hydroelectric units is of great significance for the reliable operation of hydropower plants. Firstly, an optimization method based on polynomial regression with Pearson and Spearman fusion and Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) algorithm (PSSCA) is proposed to optimize the parameters in the variational modal decomposition (VMD), so as to suppress the influence of noise on the vibration signals of hydroelectric units. Then, the sample entropy and root-mean-square fusion of the VMD decomposed modal functions are reconstructed into a hybrid feature vector set so that this vector set can maximally contain the feature information of the vibration signals of the hydroelectric units. Finally, the CNN-GBiLSTM assessment model is constructed by combining the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, the Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) model, and the global average pooling layer, which is used to predict the upper and lower limits of the healthy vibration of the hydropower unit, and to construct the risk indicator of the hydropower unit operation by combining the values of the upper and lower limits. The results of simulation and comparative experiments show that the method proposed in this study can visually represent the three operational risk scenarios of a hydropower unit: low risk, medium risk, and high risk. It can effectively accomplish the operational risk assessment of hydropower units and improve the assessment accuracy and assessment speed, thus proving the effectiveness and superiority of the method.

Polyp-LVT: Polyp segmentation with lightweight vision transformers

Automatic segmentation of polyps in endoscopic images is crucial for early diagnosis and surgical planning of colorectal cancer. However, polyps closely resemble surrounding mucosal tissue in both texture and indistinct borders and vary in size, appearance, and location which possess great challenge to polyp segmentation. Although some recent attempts have been made to apply Vision Transformer (ViT) to polyp segmentation and achieved promising performance, their application in clinical scenarios is still limited by high computational complexity, large model size, redundant dependencies, and significant training costs. To address these limitations, we propose a novel ViT-based approach named Polyp-LVT, strategically replacing the attention layer in the encoder with a global max pooling layer, which significantly reduces the model’s parameter count and computational cost while keeping the performance undegraded. Furthermore, we introduce a network block, named Inter-block Feature Fusion Module (IFFM), into the decoder, aiming to offer a streamlined yet highly efficient feature extraction. We conduct extensive experiments on three public polyp image benchmarks to evaluate our method. The experimental results show that compared with the baseline models, our Polyp-LVT network achieves a nearly 44% reduction in model parameters while gaining comparable segmentation performance.

Improved Convolutional Neural Network for Wideband Space-Time Beamforming

Wideband beamforming technology is an effective solution in millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to compensate for severe path loss through beamforming gain. However, traditional adaptive wideband digital beamforming (AWDBF) algorithms suffer from serious performance degradation when there are insufficient signal snapshots, and the training process of the existing neural network-based wideband beamforming network is slow and unstable. To address the above issues, an AWDBF method based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) structure, the improved wideband beamforming prediction network (IWBPNet), is proposed. The proposed method increases the network’s feature extraction capability for array signals through deep convolutional layers, thus alleviating the problem of insufficient network feature extraction capabilities. In addition, the pooling layers are introduced into the IWBPNet to solve the problem that the fully connected layer of the existing neural network-based wideband beamforming algorithm is too large, resulting in slow network training, and the pooling operation increases the generalization ability of the network. Furthermore, the IWBPNet has good wideband beamforming performance with low signal snapshots, including beam pattern performance and output signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) performance. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has superior performance compared with the traditional wideband beamformer with low signal snapshots. Compared with the wideband beamforming algorithm based on the neural network, the training time of IWBPNet is only 10.6% of the original neural network-based wideband beamformer, while the beamforming performance is slightly improved. Simulations and numerical analyses demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed wideband beamformer.

Furthermore, the classification test of 10 types of PQDs sampled on a hardware platform demonstrates an average accuracy of 99.66 %, further validating the reliability of the proposed method.

Automated character recognition is currently highly popular due to its wide range of applications. Bengali handwritten character recognition (BHCR) is an extremely difficult issue because of the nature of the script. Very few handwritten character recognition (HCR) models are capable of accurately classifying all different sorts of Bangla characters. Recently, image recognition, video analytics, and natural language processing have all found great success using convolutional neural network (CNN) due to its ability to extract and classify features in novel ways. In this paper, we introduce a VashaNet model for recognizing Bangla handwritten basic characters.

The experiment was performed over 2 datasets consisting of a primary dataset of 5750 images, CMATERdb 3.1.2 for the purpose of training and evaluating the model. The suggested character recognition model worked very well, with test accuracy rates of 94.60% for the primary dataset, 94.43% for CMATERdb 3.1.2 dataset. These remarkable outcomes demonstrate that the proposed VashaNet outperforms other existing methods and offers improved suitability in different character recognition tasks. The proposed approach is a viable candidate for the high efficient practical automatic BHCR system. The proposed approach is a more powerful candidate for the development of an automatic BHCR system for use in practical settings.

A Novel Feature Selection Approach-Based Sampling Theory on Grapevine Images Using Convolutional Neural Networks

AbstractFeature selection, reducing number of input variables to develop classification model, is an important process to reduce computational and modeling complexity and affects the performance of image process. In this paper, we have proposed new statistical approaches for feature selection based on sample selection. We have applied our new approaches to grapevine leaves data that possess properties of shape, thickness, featheriness, and slickness that are investigated in images. To analyze such kind of data by using image process, thousands of features are created and selection of features plays important role to predict the outcome properly. In our numerical study, convolutional neural networks have been used as feature extractors and then obtained features from the last average pooling layer to detect the type of grapevine leaves from images. These features have been reduced by using our suggested four statistical methods: simple random sampling, ranked set sampling, extreme ranked set sampling, moving extreme ranked set sampling. Then, selected features have been classified with artificial neural network and we obtained the best accuracy of 97.33% with our proposed approaches. Based on our empirical analysis, it has been determined that the proposed approach exhibits efficacy in the classification of grapevine leaf types. Furthermore, it possesses the potential for integration into various computational devices.
