The level of automated unmanned surface vehicle is always dependent on human interactions. An automated collision avoidance approach is proposed which is based on the visual system in order to improve it. Deep convolutional neural network (CNN) is a popular deep neural network for pattern recognition. Three types of encounter scenes are created and recorded which are used as the CNN training samples...
It is a simple task for humans to visually identify objects. However, computer-based image recognition remains challenging. In this paper we describe an approach for image recognition with specific focus on automated recognition of plants and flowers. The approach taken utilizes deep learning capabilities and unlike other approaches that focus on static images for feature classification, we utilize...
This paper presents a novel approach to launch and defend against the causative and evasion attacks on machine learning classifiers. As the preliminary step, the adversary starts with an exploratory attack based on deep learning (DL) and builds a functionally equivalent classifier by polling the online target classifier with input data and observing the returned labels. Using this inferred classifier,...
With the ability to reconstruct signals from a highly incomplete number of samples, Compressive Sensing (CS) has been proposed in bandwidth-constrained scenarios like remote sensing, where signals exist some degree of redundancy. In CS, reconstruction approaches are of great importance. However, current reconstruction approaches are of highly computational complexity because they use greedy or convex...
In this paper, we explore the use of recent conditional generative adversarial network framework for image to image translation applied to the domain of heterogeneous face sketch synthesis. Since the inception of the adversarial framework in 2014, great success has been noted with several variants till date. Further, we introduce a new dataset for composite sketch images. In particular we explore...
Anomaly detection is the process of identifying unusual signals in a set of observations. This is a vital task in a variety of fields including cybersecurity and the battlefield. In many scenarios, observations are gathered from a set of distributed mobile or small form factor devices. Traditionally, the observations are sent to centralized servers where large-scale systems perform analytics on the...
Deep learning (deep structured learning, hierarchical learning or deep machine learning) is a branch of machine learning based on a set of algorithms that attempt to model high-level abstractions in data by using multiple processing layers with complex structures or otherwise composed of multiple non-linear transformations. In this paper, we present the results of testing neural networks architectures...
Market research shows that one of the most intolerable issues in the pack of cigarettes is the cigarette missing. This issue makes substantial adverse effects on a company which needs to be avoided completely. Existing research uses a weight detection method to identity packages with issues. However, the accuracy of weight detection methods is low due to instrument error and complex workshop environment...
In this work, we adopt the use of deep learning method for no-reference image quality assessment. With the development of deep neural networks technology, foundational and deep features of images could be captured without much prior knowledge. So a sparse autoencoder (SAE) was trained to express a 32 × 32 pixels image into a feature vector. Then the original images were cut into serial sub-images...
Stacked auto-encoder is mainly used for image classification and it can extract valid information from data through unsupervised pre-training and supervised fine-tuning. This paper is intended to improve the accuracy of image classification, we constructed a 6-layer stacked convolution neural network (CNN) based on stacked auto-encoders. The constructed CNN can extract effective features for image...
In this paper, a system to aid the visually impaired by providing contextual information of the surroundings using 360° view camera combined with deep learning is proposed. The system uses a 360° view camera with a mobile device to capture surrounding scene information and provide contextual information to the user in the form of audio. The scene information from the spherical camera feed is classified...
Acoustic classification of frogs has received increasing attention for its promising application in ecological studies. Various studies have been proposed for classifying frog species, but most recordings are assumed to have only a single species. In this study, a method to classify multiple frog species in an audio clip is presented. To be specific, continuous frog recordings are first cropped into...
The contribution of this paper is to bridge the gap on understanding the mathematical structure and the computational implementation of a convolutional neural network using a minimal model. The proposed minimal convolutional neural network is presented using a layering approach. This approach provides a clear understanding of the main mathematical operations in a convolutional neural network. Hence,...
Human posture analysis is a task of utmost importance for several disciplines. For ergonomists, extracting postural information such as joint angles is necessary to evaluating ergonomie assessment metrics.

In this paper, we present a holistic...
Automated Planning focuses on plan search. Traditionally, it aimed at domain-independent methods with handcrafted domain models. However, automated domain model acquisition, especially the action model acquisition is difficult. On the other hand, many problem specific search space pruning techniques were proposed. Therefore, we combine the automated domain model acquisition and problem specific search...
In this paper, a fast, transparent, self-evolving, deep learning fuzzy rule-based (DLFRB) image classifier is proposed. This new classifier is a cascade of the recently introduced DLFRB classifier called MICE and an auxiliary SVM. The DLFRB classifier serves as the main engine and can identify a number of human interpretable fuzzy rules through a very short, transparent, highly parallelizable training...
We propose a method that uses kernel method-based algorithms to implement an autoencoder. Deep learning-based algorithms have two characteristics, one is the high level data abstraction, the other is the multiple level data transformations and representations. The kernel method is one of the approaches that can be used in linear and non-linear transformations. It should be one of the implementations...

Therefore, this paper proposes a new framework, called DeepFood which not only extracts rich and effective features...
We present a neural network model that learns to produce music scores directly from audio signals. Instead of employing commonplace processing steps, such as frequency transform front-ends, harmonicity and scale priors, or temporal pitch smoothing, we show that a neural network can learn such steps on its own when presented with the appropriate training data. We show how such a network can perform...
