Our review traces the evolution of CNN, emphasizing the adaptation and capabilities of the U-Net 3D model in automating seismic fault delineation with unprecedented accuracy. We find: 1) The transition from basic neural networks to sophisticated CNN has enabled remarkable advancements in image recognition, which are directly applicable to analyzing seismic data. The U-Net 3D model, with its innovative architecture, exemplifies this progress by providing a method for detailed and accurate fault detection with reduced manual interpretation bias. 2) The U-Net 3D model has demonstrated its superiority over traditional fault identification methods in several key areas: it has enhanced interpretation accuracy, increased operational efficiency, and reduced the subjectivity of manual methods. 3) Despite these achievements, challenges such as the need for effective data preprocessing, acquisition of high-quality annotated datasets, and achieving model generalization across different geological conditions remain. Future research should therefore focus on developing more complex network architectures and innovative training strategies to refine fault identification performance further. Our findings confirm the transformative potential of deep learning, particularly CNN like the U-Net 3D model, in geosciences, advocating for its broader integration to revolutionize geological exploration and seismic analysis.展开更多

Cloud radio access network (CRAN) is a prominent framework in the 5G mobile network to meet the above requirements by deploying low-cost and intelligent multiple distributed antennas known as remote radio heads (RRHs). However, achieving the optimal resource allocation (RA) in CRAN using the traditional approach is still challenging due to the complex structure. In this paper, we introduce the convolutional neural network-based deep Q-network (CNN-DQN) to balance the energy consumption and guarantee the user quality of service (QoS) demand in downlink CRAN. We first formulate the Markov decision process (MDP) for energy efficiency (EE) and build up a 3-layer CNN to capture the environment feature as an input state space. We then use DQN to turn on/off the RRHs dynamically based on the user QoS demand and energy consumption in the CRAN. Finally, we solve the RA problem based on the user constraint and transmit power to guarantee the user QoS demand and maximize the EE with a minimum number of active RRHs. In the end, we conduct the simulation to compare our proposed scheme with nature DQN and the traditional approach.展开更多

The fingerprints...With the rapid growth of the demand for indoor location-based services(LBS), Wi-Fi received signal strength(RSS) fingerprints database has attracted significant attention because it is easy to obtain. The fingerprints algorithm based on convolution neural network(CNN) is often used to improve indoor localization accuracy. However, the number of reference points used for position estimation has significant effects on the positioning accuracy. Meanwhile, it is always selected arbitraily without any guiding standards. As a result, a novel location estimation method based on Jenks natural breaks algorithm(JNBA), which can adaptively choose more reasonable reference points, is proposed in this paper. The output of CNN is processed by JNBA, which can select the number of reference points according to different environments. Then, the location is estimated by weighted K-nearest neighbors(WKNN). Experimental results show that the proposed method has higher positioning accuracy without sacrificing more time cost than the existing indoor localization methods based on CNN.展开更多

This paper reports the novel use and effectiveness of deep learning, in general, and convolutional neural networks (CNN), in particular, for automatic rather than hand-crafted feature extraction for robust face recognition across time lapse. A CNN architecture using the VGG-Face deep (neural network) learning is found to produce highly discriminative and interoperable features that are robust to aging variations even across a mix of biometric datasets. The features extracted show high inter-class and low intra-class variability leading to low generalization errors on aging datasets using ensembles of subspace discriminant classifiers. The classification results for the all-encompassing authentication methods proposed on the challenging FG-NET and MORPH datasets are competitive with state-of-the-art methods including commercial face recognition engines and are richer in functionality and interoperability than existing methods as it handles mixed biometric datasets, e.g., FG-NET and MORPH.展开更多

At present, most of the track correlation algorithms only use part of the target location, speed, and other information for correlation.In this paper, the artificial neural network method is used to establish the corresponding intelligent track correlation model and method according to the characteristics of swarm targets.Precisely, a route correlation method based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM)Neural network is designed. In this model, the CNN is used to extract the formation characteristics of UAV swarm and the spatial position characteristics of single UAV track in the formation,while the LSTM is used to extract the time characteristics of UAV swarm. Experimental results show that compared with the traditional algorithms, the algorithm based on CNN-LSTM neural network can make full use of multiple feature information of the target, and has better robustness and accuracy for swarm targets.展开更多

We first formulate the Markov decision process (MDP) for energy efficiency (EE) and build up a 3-layer CNN to capture the environment feature as an input state space. We then use DQN to turn on/off the RRHs dynamically based on the user QoS demand and energy consumption in the CRAN. Finally, we solve the RA problem based on the user constraint and transmit power to guarantee the user QoS demand and maximize the EE with a minimum number of active RRHs. In the end, we conduct the simulation to compare our proposed scheme with nature DQN and the traditional approach.

文摘Skin lesions detection and classification is a prominent issue and difficult even for extremely skilled dermatologists and pathologists.Skin disease is the most common disorder triggered by fungus,viruses,bacteria,allergies,etc.Skin diseases are most dangerous and may be the cause of serious damage.Therefore,it requires to diagnose it at an earlier stage,but the diagnosis therapy itself is complex and needs advanced laser and photonic therapy.This advance therapy involvesfinancial burden and some other ill effects.Therefore,it must use artificial intelligence techniques to detect and diagnose it accurately at an earlier stage.Several techniques have been proposed to detect skin disease at an earlier stage but fail to get accuracy.Therefore,the primary goal of this paper is to classify,detect and provide accurate information about skin diseases.This paper deals with the same issue by proposing a high-performance Convolution neural network(CNN)to classify and detect skin disease at an earlier stage.The complete meth-odology is explained in different folds:firstly,the skin diseases images are pre-processed with processing techniques,and secondly,the important feature of the skin images are extracted.Thirdly,the pre-processed images are analyzed at different stages using a Deep Convolution Neural Network(DCNN).The approach proposed in this paper is simple,fast,and shows accurate results up to 98%and used to detect six different disease types.
文摘Nowadays,the amount of wed data is increasing at a rapid speed,which presents a serious challenge to the web monitoring.Text sentiment analysis,an important research topic in the area of natural language processing,is a crucial task in the web monitoring area.The accuracy of traditional text sentiment analysis methods might be degraded in dealing with mass data.Deep learning is a hot research topic of the artificial intelligence in the recent years.By now,several research groups have studied the sentiment analysis of English texts using deep learning methods.In contrary,relatively few works have so far considered the Chinese text sentiment analysis toward this direction.In this paper,a method for analyzing the Chinese text sentiment is proposed based on the convolutional neural network(CNN)in deep learning in order to improve the analysis accuracy.The feature values of the CNN after the training process are nonuniformly distributed.In order to overcome this problem,a method for normalizing the feature values is proposed.Moreover,the dimensions of the text features are optimized through simulations.Finally,a method for updating the learning rate in the training process of the CNN is presented in order to achieve better performances.Experiment results on the typical datasets indicate that the accuracy of the proposed method can be improved compared with that of the traditional supervised machine learning methods,e.g.,the support vector machine method.
文摘Sleep apnea is a common health condition that can affect numerous aspects of life and may cause a lot of health problems especially in the middle-aged and elderly population.Polysomnography(PSG),as the gold standard,is an expensive and inconvenient way to diagnose sleep apnea.However,ballistocardiogram can be collected by devices embedded in the surrounding environment,enabling inperceptible sleep apnea detection.Moreover,to obtain the fine-grained apnea fragments,a multistage sleep apnea detection model has been proposed.This model firstly uses an improved convolution neural network(CNN)model to coarsely identify apnea events and then a U-Net based model is applied to finely segment apnea fragments.In the experiment,sleep data of 11 patients with apnea for about 70 h have been collected,including BCG data derived from 18 piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF)sensors embedded in the mattress and PSG data collected synchronously.The results show the accuracy of the classification model as good as 95.7%with 0.818 dice coefficient of the segmentation model,which indicates that the proposed model can almost match the performance of PSG in detecting apnea.

文摘With the rapid growth of the demand for indoor location-based services(LBS), Wi-Fi received signal strength(RSS) fingerprints database has attracted significant attention because it is easy to obtain. The fingerprints algorithm based on convolution neural network(CNN) is often used to improve indoor localization accuracy. However, the number of reference points used for position estimation has significant effects on the positioning accuracy. Meanwhile, it is always selected arbitraily without any guiding standards. As a result, a novel location estimation method based on Jenks natural breaks algorithm(JNBA), which can adaptively choose more reasonable reference points, is proposed in this paper. The output of CNN is processed by JNBA, which can select the number of reference points according to different environments. Then, the location is estimated by weighted K-nearest neighbors(WKNN). Experimental results show that the proposed method has higher positioning accuracy without sacrificing more time cost than the existing indoor localization methods based on CNN.

文摘Accurate remaining useful life(RUL)prediction is important in industrial systems.It prevents machines from working under failure conditions,and ensures that the industrial system works reliably and efficiently.Recently,many deep learning based methods have been proposed to predict RUL.Among these methods,recurrent neural network(RNN)based approaches show a strong capability of capturing sequential information.This allows RNN based methods to perform better than convolutional neural network(CNN)based approaches on the RUL prediction task.In this paper,we question this common paradigm and argue that existing CNN based approaches are not designed according to the classic principles of CNN,which reduces their performances.Additionally,the capacity of capturing sequential information is highly affected by the receptive field of CNN,which is neglected by existing CNN based methods.To solve these problems,we propose a series of new CNNs,which show competitive results to RNN based methods.Compared with RNN,CNN processes the input signals in parallel so that the temporal sequence is not easily determined.To alleviate this issue,a position encoding scheme is developed to enhance the sequential information encoded by a CNN.Hence,our proposed position encoding based CNN called PE-Net is further improved and even performs better than RNN based methods.Extensive experiments are conducted on the C-MAPSS dataset,where our PE-Net shows state-of-the-art performance.

文摘Quantum error correction technology is an important solution to solve the noise interference generated during the operation of quantum computers.In order to find the best syndrome of the stabilizer code in quantum error correction,we need to find a fast and close to the optimal threshold decoder.In this work,we build a convolutional neural network(CNN)decoder to correct errors in the toric code based on the system research of machine learning.We analyze and optimize various conditions that affect CNN,and use the RestNet network architecture to reduce the running time.It is shortened by 30%-40%,and we finally design an optimized algorithm for CNN decoder.In this way,the threshold accuracy of the neural network decoder is made to reach 10.8%,which is closer to the optimal threshold of about 11%.The previous threshold of 8.9%-10.3%has been slightly improved,and there is no need to verify the basic noise.

文摘Candlestick charts display the high,low,opening,and closing prices in a specific period.Candlestick patterns emerge because human actions and reactions are patterned and continuously replicate.These patterns capture information on the candles.According to Thomas Bulkowski’s Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts,there are 103 candlestick patterns.Traders use these patterns to determine when to enter and exit.Candlestick pattern classification approaches take the hard work out of visually identifying these patterns.To highlight its capabilities,we propose a two-steps approach to recognize candlestick patterns automatically.The first step uses the Gramian Angular Field(GAF)to encode the time series as different types of images.The second step uses the Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)with the GAF images to learn eight critical kinds of candlestick patterns.In this paper,we call the approach GAF-CNN.In the experiments,our approach can identify the eight types of candlestick patterns with 90.7%average accuracy automatically in real-world data,outperforming the LSTM model.

文摘The background pattern of patterned fabrics is complex,which has a great interference in the extraction of defect features.Traditional machine vision algorithms rely on artificially designed features,which are greatly affected by background patterns and are difficult to effectively extract flaw features.Therefore,a convolutional neural network(CNN)with automatic feature extraction is proposed.On the basis of the two-stage detection model Faster R-CNN,Resnet-50 is used as the backbone network,and the problem of flaws with extreme aspect ratio is solved by improving the initialization algorithm of the prior frame aspect ratio,and the improved multi-scale model is designed to improve detection of small defects.The cascade R-CNN is introduced to improve the accuracy of defect detection,and the online hard example mining(OHEM)algorithm is used to strengthen the learning of hard samples to reduce the interference of complex backgrounds on the defect detection of patterned fabrics,and construct the focal loss as a loss function to reduce the impact of sample imbalance.In order to verify the effectiveness of the improved algorithm,a defect detection comparison experiment was set up.The experimental results show that the accuracy of the defect detection algorithm of patterned fabrics in this paper can reach 95.7%,and it can accurately locate the defect location and meet the actual needs of the factory.
文摘Time lapse, characteristic of aging, is a complex process that affects the reliability and security of biometric face recognition systems. This paper reports the novel use and effectiveness of deep learning, in general, and convolutional neural networks (CNN), in particular, for automatic rather than hand-crafted feature extraction for robust face recognition across time lapse. A CNN architecture using the VGG-Face deep (neural network) learning is found to produce highly discriminative and interoperable features that are robust to aging variations even across a mix of biometric datasets. The features extracted show high inter-class and low intra-class variability leading to low generalization errors on aging datasets using ensembles of subspace discriminant classifiers. The classification results for the all-encompassing authentication methods proposed on the challenging FG-NET and MORPH datasets are competitive with state-of-the-art methods including commercial face recognition engines and are richer in functionality and interoperability than existing methods as it handles mixed biometric datasets, e.g., FG-NET and MORPH.
文摘The rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) swarm, a new type of aerial threat target, has brought great pressure to the air defense early warning system. At present, most of the track correlation algorithms only use part of the target location, speed, and other information for correlation.In this paper, the artificial neural network method is used to establish the corresponding intelligent track correlation model and method according to the characteristics of swarm targets.Precisely, a route correlation method based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM)Neural network is designed. In this model, the CNN is used to extract the formation characteristics of UAV swarm and the spatial position characteristics of single UAV track in the formation,while the LSTM is used to extract the time characteristics of UAV swarm. Experimental results show that compared with the traditional algorithms, the algorithm based on CNN-LSTM neural network can make full use of multiple feature information of the target, and has better robustness and accuracy for swarm targets.

文摘Pneumonia is part of the main diseases causing the death of children.It is generally diagnosed through chest Xray images.With the development of Deep Learning(DL),the diagnosis of pneumonia based on DL has received extensive attention.However,due to the small difference between pneumonia and normal images,the performance of DL methods could be improved.This research proposes a new fine-grained Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)for children’s pneumonia diagnosis(FG-CPD).Firstly,the fine-grainedCNNclassificationwhich can handle the slight difference in images is investigated.To obtain the raw images from the real-world chest X-ray data,the YOLOv4 algorithm is trained to detect and position the chest part in the raw images.Secondly,a novel attention network is proposed,named SGNet,which integrates the spatial information and channel information of the images to locate the discriminative parts in the chest image for expanding the difference between pneumonia and normal images.Thirdly,the automatic data augmentation method is adopted to increase the diversity of the images and avoid the overfitting of FG-CPD.The FG-CPD has been tested on the public Chest X-ray 2017 dataset,and the results show that it has achieved great effect.Then,the FG-CPD is tested on the real chest X-ray images from children aged 3–12 years ago from Tongji Hospital.The results show that FG-CPD has achieved up to 96.91%accuracy,which can validate the potential of the FG-CPD.

文摘In order to accomplish the task of object recognition in natural scenes,a new object recognition algorithm based on an improved convolutional neural network(CNN)is proposed.First,candidate object windows are extracted from the original image.Then,candidate object windows are input into the improved CNN model to obtain deep features.Finally,the deep features are input into the Softmax and the confidence scores of classes are obtained.The candidate object window with the highest confidence score is selected as the object recognition result.Based on AlexNet,Inception V1 is introduced into the improved CNN and the fully connected layer is replaced by the average pooling layer,which widens the network and deepens the network at the same time.Experimental results show that the improved object recognition algorithm can obtain better recognition results in multiple natural scene images,and has a higher degree of accuracy than the classical algorithms in the field of object recognition.
