Purpose: Paper-based artifacts hold significant cultural and social values. However, paper is intrinsically fragile to microorganisms, such as mold, due to its cellulose composition, which can serve as a microorganisms' nutrient source. Mold not only can damage papers' structural integrity and pose significant challenges to conservation works but also may subject individuals attending the contaminated artifacts to health risks. Current approaches for strain identification usually require extensive training, prolonged time for analysis, expensive operation costs, and higher risks of secondary damage due to sampling. Thus, in current conservation practices with mold-contaminated artifacts, little pre-screening or strain identification was performed before mold removal, and the cleaning techniques are usually broad-spectrum rather than strain-specific. With deep learning showing promising applications across various domains, this study investigated the feasibility of using a convolutional neural network (CNN) for fast in-situ recognition and classification of mold on paper. Methods: Molds were first non-invasively sampled from ancient Xuan Paper-based Chinese books from the Qing and Ming dynasties. Strains were identified using molecular biology methods and the four most prevalent strains were inoculated on Xuan paper to create mockups for image collection. Microscopic images of the molds as well as their stains situated on paper were collected using a compound microscope and commercial microscope lens for cell phone cameras, which were then used for training CNN models with a transfer learning scheme to perform the classification of mold. To enable involvement and contribution from the research community, a web interface that actuates the process while providing interactive features for users to learn about the information of the classified strain was constructed. Moreover, a feedback functionality in the web interface was embedded for catching potential classification errors, adding additional training images, or introducing new strains, all to refine the generalizability and robustness of the model. Results & Conclusion: In the study, we have constructed a suite of high-confidence classification CNN models for the diagnostic process for mold contamination in conservation. At the same time, a web interface was constructed that allows recurrently refining the model with human feedback through engaging the research community. Overall, the proposed framework opens new avenues for effective and timely identification of mold, thus enabling proactive and targeted mold remediation strategies in conservation.

In high-voltage transmission lines, the tension tower needs to withstand the tension load of the overhead power line for a long time, which is prone to damage, and it is an important part of the inspection in the circuit inspection. In the modern circuit inspection process, operation and maintenance personnel mostly use unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to photograph various parts of the tension tower, obtain inspection images, and manually classify and name the massive inspection images, which is low in accuracy and efficiency. Based on the above problems, this paper collects a large number of real-life UAV inspection images of various parts of a tension tower, and proposes the Stower-13 inspection image dataset, which is used to train the classification model to achieve automatic classification and naming of inspection images. Based on this dataset, this paper also proposes an improved MobileViT model, in which the Scale-Correlated Pyramid Convolution Block Attention Block (SCPCbam) module is introduced, which adds the Convolution Block Attention Module (CBAM) to the four branches of the original Scale-Correlated Pyramid Convolution (SCPC) module, so as to strengthen the ability of image multi-scale information extraction and improve the classification accuracy. This paper discusses a number of experiments on the model, and the experimental results show that the dataset proposed in this paper helps the model to understand the feature information. At the same time, the improved MobileViT model has a strong ability to extract image spatial feature information, the classification accuracy is higher than that of other models of the same type, so it is able to cope with a wide range of problems that arise in the course of practice, and it meets the practical needs of automatically naming transmission line inspection images.

Starting from the current need for the safety of energy systems, in which power transformers play a key role, the study of the health of power transformers in service is a difficult and complex task, since the assessment consists of identifying indicators that can provide accurate data on the extent of degradation of transformer components and subcomponents, in order to establish a model for predicting the remaining life of transformers. Therefore, this paper proposes a model for assessing the remaining service life by diagnosing the condition of the transformer based on the health index (HI) obtained from a multi-parameter analysis. To determine the condition of power transformers, a number of methods are presented based on the combination of the combined Duval pentagon (PDC) method and ethylene concentration (C2H4) to determine the fault condition, the combination of the degree of polymerisation (DP) and moisture to determine the condition of the cellulose insulation and the use of the oil quality index (OQIN) to determine the condition of the oil. For each of the classification methods presented, applications based on machine learning (ML), in particular support vector machine (SVM), have been implemented for automatic classification using the Matlab development environment. The global algorithmic approach presented in this paper subscribes to the idea of event-based maintenance. Two case studies are also presented to validate SVM-based classification methods and algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cotton plant (Gossypium herbaceum), is one of the significant fiber crop grown worldwide. However, the crop is quite prone to leaves diseases, for which deep learning (DL) techniques can be utilized for early disease prediction and prevent stakeholders from losing the harvest. The objective of this paper is to develop a novel ensemble based deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model developed on two base pretrained models named: VGG16 and InceptionV3 for early detection of cotton leaves diseases. The proposed ensemble model trained on cotton leaves dataset reports higher training and testing prediction accuracies as compared to the base pretrained models. Given that, deep learning architectures have hyper-parameters, this paper presents exhaustive experimental evaluations on ensemble model to tune hyper-parameters named learning rate, optimizer and no of epochs. The suggested hyper-parameter settings can be directly utilized while employing the ensemble model for cotton plant leaves disease detection and prediction. With suggested hyper-parameters settings of learning rate 0.0001, 20 epochs and stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimizer, ensemble model reported training and testing accuracies of 98% and 95% respectively, which was higher than the training and testing accuracies of VGG16 and InceptionV3 pretrained DCNN models.

Further, achieves better accuracy in classifying MS lesion types compared to standard MS lesion type classification models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Many blue and white porcelain are unearthed in Jingdezhen every year. The patterns on the sherds have important research significance. At present, the classification of porcelain shards is mainly based on manual work, which has the disadvantages of large workload. The use of automatic classification methods also faces complex patterns and sample sizes. In order to solve these problems, this paper proposes a new automatic recognition method based on deep learning, including data preprocessing method combined with color segmentation algorithm, a new data augmentation method FCutMix for regions of interest, a new integration strategy and the redesigned deep network model FFCNet that integrates multiple features. After experiments, the data preprocessing method, feature fusion method and integration strategy proposed in the paper can effectively improve the performance of the model by removing redundant information and adding effective features. The FCutMix method can also obtain more accurate mixed samples than the traditional CutMix. The method proposed in this paper improves the accuracy of tasks in 14 categories from 71.7% to 83.2% in a dataset containing only 373 images of porcelain sherds. In the future, this research will further design the network structure and multi-level feature fusion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Using deep learning models to deal with the classification tasks in network traffic offers a new approach to address the imbalanced Internet of Things malicious traffic classification problems. However, the employment difficulty of these models may be immense due to their high resource consumption and inadequate interpretability. Fortunately, the effectiveness of sampling methods based on the statistical principles in imbalance data distribution indicates the path. In this paper, we address these challenges by proposing a hybrid sampling method, termed HSS, which integrates undersampling and oversampling techniques. Our approach not only mitigates the imbalance in malicious traffic but also fine-tunes the sampling threshold to optimize performance, as substantiated through validation tests. Employed across three distinct classification tasks, this method furnishes simplified yet representative samples, enhancing the baseline models' classification capabilities by a minimum of 6.02% and a maximum of 182.66%. Moreover, it notably reduces resource consumption, with sample numbers diminishing to a ratio of at least 83.53%. This investigation serves as a foundation, demonstrating the efficacy of HSS in bolstering security measures in IoT networks, potentially guiding the development of more adept and resource-efficient solutions.

Zero-shot event detection aims to involve the automatic discovery and classification of new events within unstructured text. Current zero-shot event detection methods have not considered addressing the problem more effectively from the perspective of improving event representations. In this paper, we propose dual-contrastive prompting (COPE) model for learning event representations to address zero-shot event detection, which leverages prompts to assist in generating event embeddings using a pretrained language model, and employs a contrastive fusion approach to capture complex interaction information between trigger representations and sentence embeddings to obtain enhanced event representations. Firstly, we introduce a sample generator to create ordered contrastive sample sequences with varying degrees of similarity for each event instance, aiding the model in better distinguishing different types of events. Secondly, we design two distinct prompts to obtain trigger representations and event sentence embeddings separately. Thirdly, we employ a contrastive fusion module, where trigger representations and event sentence embeddings interactively fuse in vector space to generate the final event representations. Experiments show that our model is more effective than the most advanced methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a new approach to classify and evaluate defects in concrete structures automatically. To overcome the limitations of defect detection methods that traditionally relied on expert visual observation, the reflection signal of electromagnetic pulses is extracted as time-series data and used to analyze the propagation characteristics of each defect. This study uses deep learning models to analyze these time-series data and classify defects. Since anomaly detection data has more normal data than anomaly data, data augmentation methods such as Time Warping, Noise Injection, Smoothing, Trend Shifting, etc., were applied to solve the problem of data imbalance and overfitting. Among them, Noise Injection showed the best performance. The generalization performance of the proposed method was evaluated through performance evaluation using LSTM, GRU, and TCN models, and LSTM models showed the highest performance. The study results show that the proposed method effectively classifies defect types in concrete structures and can solve the limitations of existing methods by automatic classification through deep learning models. In addition, it was confirmed that the model's performance could be improved by improving the amount and diversity of data by selecting and applying appropriate data augmentation methods. The contribution of the research is to present a new approach that automates the defect detection and classification task of concrete structures and provides high accuracy and efficiency.

In the era of the first Industrial Revolution, many buildings were built with red bricks, and the heritage buildings built at that time are more than 100 years old. In these old heritage buildings, damage is bound to occur due to chemical and physical effects. Technologies such as automatic damage detection can effectively manage damage, but they can be affected by other categories present in heritage buildings. Therefore, this paper proposes a CNN algorithm that can automatically detect cracks and damage that occur in heritage buildings, as well as multi-label classification, such as doors, windows, arches, artwork, brick walls, stonewalls, and vents. A total of 2400 thermal infrared images are collected for 8 categories and automatic classification was performed using the CNN algorithm. The average precision and average sensitivity for the eight categories of heritage buildings are 97.72% and 97.43%, respectively. This paper defines the causes of misclassification as the following two causes: misclassification by multiple objects and misclassification by the perception of the CNN algorithm.

Garbage is an underutilized resource, and garbage classification is one of the effective ways to make full use of these resources. In order to realize the automation of garbage classification, some deep learning models are used for garbage images recognition. A novel garbage image recognition model Garbage Classification Net (GCNet) based on transfer learning and model fusion is proposed in this paper. After extracting garbage image features, EfficientNetv2, Vision Transformer, and DenseNet, respectively, are combined to construct the neural network model of GCNet. Data augmentation is used to expand the dataset and 41,650 garbage images are contained in the new dataset. Compared with other models through experiments, the results show that the proposed model has good convergence, high recall rate and accuracy, and short recognition time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As a carrier of history, culture, religion and art, grotto temples are an important part of China's splendid cultural heritage. Among them, there are many grotto statues with similar shapes and scattered on the grotto temples, which have high artistic value. It is of great significance to classify them.The existing classification methods of grotto temple statues are mainly based on traditional manual classification and machine learning classification, which often consumes a lot of labor costs and time costs. To solve these problems, this paper improves the PointNet network and applies it to the classification of statues in grottoes, which greatly improves the automation of the classification of statues. And the point cloud data set of the grotto temple is made for experiment. The results show that the overall accuracy of the method in this paper reaches 89.73%, the average intersection and combination ratio reaches 68.9%, and the accuracy is increased by 5.47% and 4.3% respectively compared with the random forest classification method. It is of great significance to the value research, status assessment and virtual restoration of the subsequent grotto temples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cervical cancer (CC) has become one of the serious and deadly diseases in women around the world. Predicting a CC is at risk because testing is not possible at the early stage. Doctors predict the types of cancer by collecting cervical cells and by intervening in person. This approach affects the level of prediction due to human negligence, high cost, and is time consuming. In this paper, we propose the automatic cancer classification using deep neural network to overcome this problem. The proposed work has four stages namely, pre-processing, outlier elimination, dimensionality reduction, and classification. Initially, the missing test data should be removed. Second, the inconsistent data are eliminated based on identical values. Third, principal component analysis (PCA) is used to overcome the limitations caused by high-volume data. Finally, enter the reduced size database in the proposed neural network (DNN) classifier and classify the input data as normal or abnormal. We implement the suggested method using Python and we inspect the performance in terms of different metrics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes an automatic air-to-ground (A2G) channel model selection method based on machine learning (ML) using digital surface model (DSM) terrain data. In order to verify whether a communication network for a new non-terrestrial user service such as Urban Air Mobility (UAM) satisfies the required performance, it is necessary to perform a simulation reflecting the characteristics of the corresponding terrain environments as accurately as possible. For this simulation, A2G channel models corresponding to various terrain environments and a method of automatically classifying the terrain type of the simulation area must be provided. Many A2G channel models based on actual measurement results exist, but the practical automatic topography classification method still needs to be developed. This paper proposes the first practical automatic topography classification method using a two-step neural network-based classifier utilizing various geographic feature data as input. Since there is no open topography dataset to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed method, we built a new dataset for five topography classes that reflect the characteristics of Korea's topography, which is also a contribution of our study. The simulation results using the new data set show that the proposed ML-based method could increase the selection accuracy compared to the technique for direct classification by humans or the existing cross-correlation-based classification method. Since the proposed method utilizes the DSM data, open to the public, it can easily reflect the different terrain characteristics of each country. Therefore, the proposed method can be effectively used in the realistic performance evaluation of new non-terrestrial communication networks utilizing vast airspace such as UAM or 6G mobile communications.

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted communication based on automatic modulation classification (AMC) technology is considered an effective solution to improve the transmission efficiency of wireless communication systems, as it can adaptively select the most suitable modulation method according to the current communication environment. However, many existing deep learning (DL)-based AMC methods cannot be directly applied to UAV platform with limited computing power and storage space, because of the contradiction between accuracy and efficiency. This paper mainly studies the lightweight of DL-based AMC networks to improve adaptability in resource-constrained scenarios. To address this challenge, we propose an ultra-lightweight neural network (ULNN). This network incorporates a lightweight convolutional structure, attention mechanism, and cross-channel feature fusion technique. Additionally, we introduce data augmentation (DA) based on signal phase offsets during the model training process, aimed at improving the model's generalization ability and preventing overfitting. Through experimental validation on the public dataset RML2016.10 A, the ULNN we proposed achieves an average precision of 62.83% with only 8815 parameters and reaches a peak classification accuracy of 92.11% at SNR = 10 dB. The experimental results show that ULNN can achieve high recognition accuracy while keeping the model lightweight, and is suitable for UAV platform with limited resources. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Many species of fishes around the world are soniferous. The types of sounds fishes produce vary among species and regions but consist typically of low-frequency (< 1.5 kHz) pulses and grunts. These sounds can potentially be used to monitor fishes non-intrusively and could complement traditional monitoring techniques. However, the significant time required for human analysts to manually label fish sounds in acoustic recordings does not yet allow passive acoustics to be used as a viable tool for monitoring fishes. In this paper, we compare two different approaches to automatically detect fish sounds. One is a more traditional machine learning technique based on the detection of acoustic transients in the spectrogram and the classification using Random Forest (RF). The other is using a deep learning approach and is based on the classification of overlapping segments (0.2 s) of spectrogram using a ResNet18 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Both algorithms were trained using 21,950 manually annotated fish and non-fish sounds collected from 2014 to 2019 at five different locations in the Strait of Georgia, British Columbia, Canada. The performance of the detectors was tested on part of the data from the Strait of Georgia that was withheld from the training phase, data from Barkley Sound, British Columbia, and data collected in the Port of Miami, Florida, United States. The CNN performed up to 1.9 times better than the RF (F1 score: 0.82 vs. 0.43). In some cases, the CNN was able to find more faint fish sounds than the analyst and performed well in environments different from the one it was trained in (Miami F1 score: 0.88). Noise analysis in the 20--1,000 Hz frequency band shows that the CNN is still reliable in noise levels greater than 130 dB re 1 μPa in the Port of Miami but becomes less reliable in Barkley Sound past 100 dB re 1 μPa due to mooring noise. The proposed approach can efficiently monitor (unidentified) fish sounds in a variety of environments and can also facilitate the development of species-specific detectors. We provide the software FishSound Finder, an easy-to-use open-source implementation of the CNN detector with detailed documentation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Automatic classification of buildings within port areas from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images is crucial for effective port monitoring and planning. Yet, the unique challenges of SAR imaging, such as side-looking geometry, multi-bouncing scattering, and the compact arrangement of structures, often lead to incomplete building structures and blurred boundaries in classification results. To address these issues, this paper introduces SPformer, an efficient and lightweight pyramid transformer model tailored for semantic segmentation. The SPformer utilizes a pyramid transformer encoder with spatially separable self-attention (SSSA) to refine both local and global spatial information and to process multi-scale features, enhancing the accuracy of building structure delineation. It also integrates a lightweight all multi-layer perceptron (ALL-MLP) decoder to consolidate multi-scale information across various depths and attention scopes, refining detail processing. Experimental results on the Gaofen-3 (GF-3) 1 m port building classification dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of SPformer, achieving competitive performance compared to state-of-the-art models, with mean intersection over union (mIoU) and mean F1-score (mF1) reaching 77.14% and 87.04%, respectively, while maintaining a compact model size and lower computational requirements. Experiments conducted on the entire scene of SAR images covering port area also show the good capabilities of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Automatic modulation classification plays a critical role in the intelligent reception of unknown wireless signals. In practice, the dynamic wireless environment brings a great challenge, and the actual test model is inconsistent with the training model. Therefore, aiming at the problem of noise mismatch, this paper proposes a new modulation classification method based on KD-GoogLeNet and Squeeze-Excitation (KD-GSENet). Using the k-dimensional tree, the complex wireless signals are converted into color images rather than normal constellations, which can enhance the classification features. Considering the attention block has the inherent advantage of assigning more weights to important features, this paper further uses it to improve the GoogLeNet. Finally, extensive experiments are presented including Gaussian noise, non-Gaussian noise, and the scenarios of noise mismatch. Numerical results verify the superior classification performance of the proposed KD-GSENet under different scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Visibility graph methods allow time series to mine non‐Euclidean spatial features of sequences by using graph neural network algorithms. Unlike the traditional fixed‐rule‐based univariate time series visibility graph methods, a symmetric adaptive visibility graph method is proposed using orthogonal signals, a method applicable to in‐phase and quadrature (I/Q) orthogonal signals for adaptive graph mapping for radio modulated signals in automatic modulation classification tasks. The method directly models the intra‐channel and inter‐channel graph relations of I/Q signals using two different types of convolutional kernels. It captures non‐Euclidean spatial feature information of I/Q signals using a graph neural network combining graph sampling aggregation and graph differentiable pooling as a feature extractor. Extensive experimental results on two benchmark datasets and a simulated dataset containing channel fading show that the proposed Quadrature Signal Symmetric Adaptive Visibility Graph (QSSAVG) method in this paper outperforms the benchmark method in terms of classification accuracy and is also more robust against channel fading and noise variations.

Sleep, as the basis for regular body functioning, can affect human health. Poor sleep conditions can lead to various physical ailments, such as poor immunity, memory loss, slow cognitive development, and cardiovascular diseases. Along the increasing stress in society comes with a growing surge in conditions associated with sleep disorders. Studies have shown that sleep stages are essential for the body's memory, immune system, and brain functioning. Therefore, automatic sleep stage classification is of great medical practice importance as a basis for monitoring sleep conditions. Although previous research into the classification of sleep stages has been promising, several challenges remain to be addressed: (1) The EEG signal is a non-smooth signal with harrowing feature extraction and high requirements for model accuracy. (2) Some existing network models suffer from overfitting and gradient descent. (3) Correlation between long time sequences is challenging to capture. This paper proposes NAMRTNet, a deep model architecture based on the original single-channel EEG signal to address these challenges. The model uses a modified ResNet network to extract features from sub-epochs of individual epochs, a lightweight attention mechanism normalization-based attention module (NAM) to suppress insignificant features, and a temporal convolutional network (TCN) network to capture dependencies between features of long time series. The recognition rate of 20-fold cross-validation with the NAMRTNet model for Fpz-cz channel data in the public sleep dataset Sleep-EDF was 86.2%. The experimental results demonstrate the network's superiority in this paper, surpassing some state-of-the-art techniques in different evaluation metrics. Furthermore, the total time to train the network was 5.1 h, which was much less than the training time of other models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Auditory brainstem response (ABR) is the response of the brain stem through the auditory nerve. The ABR test is a method of testing for loss of hearing through electrical signals. Basically, the test is conducted on patients such as the elderly, the disabled, and infants who have difficulty in communication. This test has the advantage of being able to determine the presence or absence of objective hearing loss by brain stem reactions only, without any communication. This paper proposes the image preprocessing process required to construct an efficient graph image data set for deep learning models using auditory brainstem response data. To improve the performance of the deep learning model, we standardized the ABR image data measured on various devices with different forms. In addition, we applied the VGG16 model, a CNN-based deep learning network model developed by a research team at the University of Oxford, using preprocessed ABR data to classify the presence or absence of hearing loss and analyzed the accuracy of the proposed method. This experimental test was performed using 10,000 preprocessed data, and the model was tested with various weights to verify classification learning. Based on the learning results, we believe it is possible to help set the criteria for preprocessing and the learning process in medical graph data, including ABR graph data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Construction sites remain one of the most hazardous workplaces globally. To improve workplace safety in the construction industry and reduce the personal injuries and socioeconomic impacts resulting from workplace accidents, tacit knowledge containing fundamental causes of accidents or specific contextual factors can be extracted from past accident narrative reports. However, manually analyzing unstructured or semistructured textual data stored in records is a daunting task, and requires the use of automated and intelligent technologies to achieve rapid and accurate knowledge acquisition. Therefore, this paper proposes a text self-classification model based on deep learning natural language processing (NLP) technology for automated classification of construction site accident cases by accident type. First, combined with two statistical measures, mutual information and information entropy, the preprocessed text data were subjected to phrase segmentation to identify more complete and accurate accident precursor information without human intervention. Then a complete multilayer and multisize convolutional neural network (CNN) model was constructed using pretrained Word2Vec word embeddings for text self-classification tasks. Finally, the test results of the CNN classification algorithm were compared with the practical application results of three shallow learning algorithms, and the performance of different types of classification algorithms was evaluated. The results showed that the CNN-based deep learning algorithm developed in this paper demonstrated excellent feature extraction and learning abilities in the task of automatic text classification in the field of NLP. This not only demonstrated that reliable accident prevention knowledge could be obtained from the textual descriptions of construction accidents, but also provided a novel model reference for document archiving and information retrieval.

Rice is one of the fundamental food items that comes in many varieties with their associated benefits. It can be sub-categorized based on its visual features like texture, color, and shape. Using these features, the automatic classification of rice varieties has been studied using various machine learning approaches for marketing and industrial use. Due to the outstanding performance of deep learning, several models have been proposed to assist in vision tasks like classification and detection. Regardless of their best results on accuracy metrics, they have been observed as overly excessive for computational resources and expert supervision. To address these challenges, this paper proposes three deep learning models that offer similar performance with 10% lighter computational overhead in comparison to existing best models. Moreover, they have been trained for end-to-end flow to demonstrate minimum expert supervision for pre-processing and feature engineering sub-tasks. The results can be observed as promising for classifying rice among five varieties, namely Arborio, Basmati, Ipsala, Jasmine, and Karacadag. The process and performance of the trained models can be extended for edge and mobile devices for field-specific tasks autonomously. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With the continuous development of communication technology, computer technology, and network technology, a large amount of information such as images, videos, and audios has grown exponentially, and people have started to be exposed to massive multimedia contents, which can easily and quickly access the increasingly rich music resources, so new technologies are urgently needed for their effective management, and automatic classification of audio signals has become the focus of engineering and academic attention. Currently, music retrieval can be achieved by selecting song titles and singer names, but as people's living standards continue to improve, the spiritual realm is also enriched. People want to be able to select music with different types of emotional expressions with their emotions. It mainly includes the basic principles of audio classification, the analysis and extraction of music emotion features, and the selection of the best classifier. Two classification algorithms, hybrid Gaussian model and AdaBoost, are used to classify music emotions, and the two classifiers are combined. In this paper, we propose the Discrete Harmonic Transform (DHT), a sparse transform based on harmonic frequencies. This paper derives and proves the formula of Discrete Harmonic Transform and further analyzes the harmonic structure of musical tone signal and the accuracy of harmonic structure. Since the timbre of musical instruments depends on the harmonic structure, and similar instruments have similar harmonic structures, the discrete harmonic transform coefficients can be defined as objective indicators corresponding to the timbre of musical instruments, and thus the concept of timbre expression spectrum is proposed, and a specific construction algorithm is given in this paper. In the application of musical instrument recognition, the 53-dimensional combined features of LPCC, MFCC, and timbre expression spectrum are selected, and a nonlinear support vector machine is used as the classifier. The classification recognition rate is improved by reducing the number of feature dimensions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ancient Buddhist architecture plays an important role in the development of Chinese architectural culture. Under the background of multiculturalism, the ancient Buddhist architectural style has also been influenced to varying degrees. In order to realize automatic classification of ancient Buddhist architecture under multi-cultural background, this paper proposes an automatic classification algorithm based on local feature learning. Firstly, the ancient Buddhist architecture images are gridded, so that the backbone network can obtain relatively flat ancient Buddhist architecture image blocks. At the same time, the backbone network can learn more local details. Then, the grid reconstruction module is designed to strengthen the connection between the features of each block and highlight the distinguishing detail features. The accuracy of ancient Buddhist architecture classification can be effectively improved through image meshing and mesh reconstruction. Experiment and analysis are carried out by using the dataset of ancient Buddhist architecture images on the Internet. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has better recognition accuracy and robustness than other comparison algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a text classification algorithm based on the attention mechanism of headline and body text according to the characteristics of education policy and introduces this algorithm in detail through a model diagram. The experimental comparison with existing classification algorithms verifies the superiority of the algorithm in the classification method of education policy text classification information.

COVID-19 has seriously affected normal life as well as public safety. It is extremely transmissible and has now infected millions of people worldwide. To obtain more image features of the lungs, Computed Tomography (CT) scans are widely used. However, manual examination of CT images for abnormal areas of COVID-19 disease can be time-consuming, and it is highly subjective to determine whether they are infected. To rapidly screen patients, Machine Learning (ML) can be used to determine whether patients have the disease. In this paper, a hybrid extraction technique is used to extract feature vectors from CT images, which is a mixture of a histogram of orientation gradients (HOG) extraction technique and a local binary pattern (LBP) extraction technique. In this experiment, 960 NON-COVID-19 and 960 COVID-19 were adopted to train the model, and 240 NON-COVID-19 and 240 COVID-19 were used to test the model. And the CT images were scaled to a uniform size. After obtaining the feature vectors using HOG and LBP feature extraction methods, The CT images were classified using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier optimised by Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO).

In the field of face biometrics, finding the identity of a person in an image is most researched, but there are other, soft biometric information that are equally as important, such as age, gender, ethnicity or emotion. Nowadays, ethnicity classification has a wide application area and is a prolific area of research. This paper gives an overview of recent advances in ethnicity classification with focus on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and proposes a new ethnicity classification method using only the middle part of the face and CNN. The paper also compares the differences in results of CNN with and without plotted landmarks. The proposed model was tested using holdout testing method on UTKFace dataset and FairFace dataset. The accuracy of the model was 80.34% for classification into five classes and 61.74% for classification into seven classes, which is slightly better than state-of-the-art, but it is also important to note that results in this paper are obtained by using only the middle part of the face which reduces the time and resources necessary.

Kolkata, renowned as the City of Joy, boasts a rich tapestry of cultural heritage spanning centuries. Despite the significance of its architectural marvels, accessing comprehensive visual documentation of Kolkata's heritage sites remains a challenge. In online searches, limited imagery often fails to provide a detailed understanding of these historical landmarks. To address this gap, this paper introduces MonuNet, a high-performance deep-learning network specifically designed for the classification of heritage images from Kolkata. The development of MonuNet addresses the critical need for efficient and accurate identification of Kolkata's architectural marvels, which are significant tangible cultural heritages. The dataset used to train MonuNet is organized by heritage sites, each category within the dataset represents distinct sites. It includes images from 13 prominent heritage sites in Kolkata. For each of these sites, there are 50 images, making it a structured collection where each category (heritage site) is equally represented. The proposed network utilizes a unique architecture incorporating a Dense channel attention module and a Parallel-spatial channel attention module to capture intricate architectural details and spatial relationships within the images. Experimental evaluations demonstrate the superior performance of MonuNet in classifying Kolkata heritage images with an accuracy of 89%, Precision of 87.77%, and Recall of 86.61%. The successful deployment of MonuNet holds significant implications for cultural preservation, tourism enhancement, and urban planning in Kolkata, aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for sustainable city development. By providing a robust tool for the automatic identification and classification of heritage images, MonuNet promises to enrich online repositories with detailed visual documentation, thereby enhancing accessibility to Kolkata's cultural heritage for researchers, tourists, and urban planners alike.

In the globalization trend, China's cultural heritage is in danger of gradually disappearing. The protection and inheritance of these precious cultural resources has become a critical task. This paper focuses on the Miao batik culture in Guizhou Province, China, and explores the application of knowledge graphs, natural language processing, and deep learning techniques in the promotion and protection of batik culture. We propose a dual-channel mechanism that integrates semantic and visual information, aiming to connect batik pattern features with cultural connotations. First, we use natural language processing techniques to automatically extract batik-related entities and relationships from the literature, and construct and visualize a structured batik pattern knowledge graph. Based on this knowledge graph, users can textually search and understand the images, meanings, taboos, and other cultural information of specific patterns. Second, for the batik pattern classification, we propose an improved ResNet34 model. By embedding average pooling and convolutional operations into the residual blocks and introducing long-range residual connections, the classification performance is enhanced. By inputting pattern images into this model, their categories can be accurately identified, and then the underlying cultural connotations can be understood. Experimental results show that our model outperforms other mainstream models in evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score, achieving 94.46%, 94.47%, 93.62%, and 93.8%, respectively. This research provides new ideas for the digital protection of batik culture and demonstrates the great potential of artificial intelligence technology in cultural heritage protection.

With the rapid development of modern communication technology, it has become a core problem in the field of communication to find new ways to effectively modulate signals and to classify and recognize the results of automatic modulation. To further improve the communication quality and system processing efficiency, this study combines two different neural network algorithms to optimize the traditional signal automatic modulation classification method. In this paper, the basic technology involved in the communication process, including automatic signal modulation technology and signal classification technology, is discussed. Then, combining parallel convolution and simple cyclic unit network, three different connection paths of automatic signal modulation classification model are constructed. The performance test results show that the classification model can achieve a stable training and verification state when the two networks are connected. After 20 and 29 iterations, the loss values are 0.13 and 0.18, respectively. In addition, when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is 25dB, the classification accuracy of parallel convolutional neural network and simple cyclic unit network model is as high as 0.99. Finally, the classification models of parallel convolutional neural networks and simple cyclic unit networks have stable correct classification probabilities when Doppler shift conditions are introduced as interference in practical application environment. In summary, the neural network fusion classification model designed can significantly improve the shortcomings of traditional automatic modulation classification methods, and further improve the classification accuracy of modulated signals.

Predictive maintenance (PdM) is implemented to efficiently manage maintenance schedules of machinery and equipment in manufacturing by predicting potential faults with advanced technologies such as sensors, data analysis, and machine learning algorithms. This paper introduces a study of different methodologies for automatically classifying the failures in PdM data. We first present the performance evaluation of fault classification performed by shallow machine learning (SML) methods such as Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, k-Nearest Neighbors, and one-dimensional deep learning (DL) techniques like 1D-LeNet, 1D-AlexNet, and 1D-VGG16. Then, we apply normalization, which is a scaling technique in which features are shifted and rescaled in the dataset. We reapply classification algorithms to the normalized dataset and present the performance tables in comparison with the first results we obtained. Moreover, in contrast to existing studies in the literature, we generate balanced dataset groups by randomly selecting normal data and all faulty data for all fault types from the original dataset. The dataset groups are generated with 100 different repetitions, recording performance scores for each one and presenting the maximum scores. All methods utilized in the study are similarly employed on these groups. From these scores, the use of 1D-LeNet deep learning classifiers and feature normalization resulted in achieving the highest overall accuracy and F1-score performance of 98.50% and 98.32%, respectively. As a result, the goal of this study was to develop an efficient approach for automatic fault classification, leveraging data balance, and additionally, to provide an analysis of one-dimensional deep learning and shallow machine learning-based classification methods. In light of the experimentation and comparative analysis, this study successfully achieves its stated goal by demonstrating that one-dimensional deep learning and data balance collectively emerge as the optimal approach, offering good prediction accuracy.

Transfer learning (TL) techniques have proven useful in a wide variety of applications traditionally dominated by machine learning (ML), such as natural language processing, computer vision, and computer-aided design. Recent extrapolations of TL to the radio frequency (RF) domain are being used to increase the potential applicability of RFML algorithms, seeking to improve the portability of models for spectrum situational awareness and transmission source identification. Unlike most of the computer vision and natural language processing applications of TL, applications within the RF modality must contend with inherent hardware distortions and channel condition variations. This paper seeks to evaluate the feasibility and performance trade-offs when transferring learned behaviors from functional RFML classification algorithms, specifically those designed for automatic modulation classification (AMC) and specific emitter identification (SEI), between homogeneous radios of similar construction and quality and heterogeneous radios of different construction and quality. Results derived from both synthetic data and over-the-air experimental collection show promising performance benefits from the application of TL to the RFML algorithms of SEI and AMC.

Deep learning has become a powerful tool for automatically classifying modulations in received radio signals, a task traditionally reliant on manual expertise. However, the effectiveness of deep learning models hinges on the availability of substantial data. Limited training data often results in overfitting, which significantly impacts classification accuracy. Traditional signal augmentation methods like rotation and flipping have been employed to mitigate this issue, but their effectiveness in enriching datasets is somewhat limited. This paper introduces the Diffusion-based Radio Signal Augmentation algorithm (DiRSA), a novel signal augmentation method that significantly enhances dataset scale without compromising signal integrity. Utilizing prompt words for precise signal generation, DiRSA allows for flexible modulation control and significantly expands the training dataset beyond the original scale. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that DiRSA outperforms traditional signal augmentation techniques such as rotation and flipping. Specifically, when applied with the LSTM model in small dataset scenarios, DiRSA enhances modulation classification performance at SNRs above 0 dB by 6%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

One of the central aspects of science is systematic problem-solving. Therefore, problem and solution statements are an integral component of the scientific discourse. The scientific analysis would be more successful if the problem–solution claims in scientific texts were automatically classified. It would help in knowledge mining, idea generation, and information classification from scientific texts. It would also help to compare scientific papers and automatically generate review articles in a given field. However, computational research on problem–solution patterns has been scarce. The linguistic analysis, instructional-design research, theory, and empirical methods have not paid enough attention to the study of problem–solution patterns. This paper tries to solve this issue by applying the computational techniques of machine learning classifiers and neural networks to a set of features to intelligently classify a problem phrase from a non-problem phrase and a solution phrase from a non-solution phrase. Our analysis shows that deep learning networks outperform machine learning classifiers. Our best model was able to classify a problem phrase from a non-problem phrase with an accuracy of 90.0% and a solution phrase from a non-solution phrase with an accuracy of 86.0%.

In recent years, smart learning environments have become central to modern education and support students and instructors through tools based on prediction and recommendation models. These methods often use learning material metadata, such as the knowledge contained in an exercise which is usually labeled by domain experts and is costly and difficult to scale. It recognizes that automated labeling eases the workload on experts, as seen in previous studies using automatic classification algorithms for research papers and Japanese mathematical exercises. However, these studies didn't delve into fine-grained labeling. In addition to that, as the use of materials in the system becomes more widespread, paper materials are transformed into PDF formats, which can lead to incomplete extraction. However, there is less emphasis on labeling incomplete mathematical sentences to tackle this problem in the previous research. This study aims to achieve precise automated classification even from incomplete text inputs. To tackle these challenges, we propose a mathematical exercise labeling algorithm that can handle detailed labels, even for incomplete sentences, using word n-grams, compared to the state-of-the-art word embedding method. The results of the experiment show that mono-gram features with Random Forest models achieved the best performance with a macro F-measure of 92.50%, 61.28% for 24-class labeling and 297-class labeling tasks, respectively. The contribution of this research is showing that the proposed method based on traditional simple n-grams has the ability to find context-independent similarities in incomplete sentences and outperforms state-of-the-art word embedding methods in specific tasks like classifying short and incomplete texts.

Efficient and accurate classification of the microseismic data obtained in coal mine production is of great significance for the guidance of coal mine production safety, disaster prevention and early warning. In the early stage, the classification of microseismic events relies on human experiences, which is not only inefficient but also often causes some misclassifications. In recent years, the neural network-based classification method has become more favored by people because of its advantages in modeling procedures. A microseismic signal is a kind of time-series signal and the application of the classification method is widely optimistic. The number and the balance of the training data samples have an important impact on the accuracy of the classification result. However, the quality of the training data set obtained from the production cannot be guaranteed. A long short-term memory (LSTM) network can analyze the time-series input data, where the image classification at the pixel level can be achieved by the fully convolutional network (FCN). The two structures in the network can not only use the advantages of the FCN for extracting signal details but also use the characteristics of LSTM for conveying and expressing the long time-series information effectively. In this paper, a time-series data enhancement combination process is proposed for the actual poor microseismic data. A hybrid FCN-LSTM network structure was built, the optimal network parameters were obtained by experiments, and finally a reasonable microseismic data classifier was obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Existing research on automatic river network classification methods has difficulty scientifically quantifying and determining feature threshold settings and evaluating weights when calculating multi-indicator features of the local and overall structures of river reaches. In order to further improve the accuracy of river network classification and evaluate the feature weight, this paper proposes an automatic grading method for river networks based on ensemble learning in CatBoost. First, the graded river network based on expert knowledge is taken as the case; with the support of the existing case results, a total of eight features from the semantic, geometric, and topological aspects of the river network were selected for calculation. Second, the classification model, obtained through learning and training, was used to calculate the classification results of the main stream and tributaries of the river reach to be classified. Furthermore, the main stream river reaches were connected, and the main stream rivers at different levels were hierarchized to achieve river network classification. Finally, the Shapley Additive explanation (SHAP) framework for interpreting machine learning models was introduced to test the influence of feature terms on the classification results from the global and local aspects, so as to improve the interpretability and transparency of the model. Performance evaluation can determine the advantages and disadvantages of the classifier, improve the classification effect and practicability of the classifier, and improve the accuracy and reliability of river network classification. The experiment demonstrates that the proposed method achieves expert-level imitation and has higher accuracy for identifying the main stream and tributaries of river networks. Compared with other classification algorithms, the accuracy was improved by 0.85–5.94%, the precision was improved by 1.82–9.84%, and the F1_Score was improved by 0.8–5.74%. In this paper, CatBoost is used for river network classification for the first time, and SHAP is used to explain the influence of characteristics, which improves the accuracy of river network classification and enhances the interpretability of the classification method. By constructing a reasonable hierarchy, a better grading effect can be achieved, and the intelligence level of automatic grading of river networks can be further improved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The detection and classification of insect species represent challenging computer vision tasks that have significant applications in zoology and agriculture. Fortunately, biologists and taxonomists have developed a systematic approach to organizing organisms, which results in a hierarchical classification system. Insect classification employs a hierarchical structure that includes object detection at the order level, family classification, and species classification. However, the conventional insect identification method is time-consuming and requires the expertise of highly skilled taxonomists to identify insects accurately based on morphological characteristics. This paper presents a pioneering study on the automatic detection and classification of Arthropod Taxonomy Orders using an enhanced variant of the You Only Look Once (YOLOX) framework along with the Arthropod Taxonomy Orders Object Detection (ArTaxOr) Dataset. The proposed ArTaxOr dataset encompasses diverse arthropod species such as insects, spiders, crustaceans, centipedes, millipedes, and isopods. Moreover, some images within this dataset depict multiple species with varying sizes, shapes, and colors. Accordingly, all images are resized to 640 × 640 to ensure compliance with the requisite input image size for YOLOX. Further, mosaic augmentation is employed to enhance the model's accuracy in recognizing small objects. Inspite of natural complexity in a majority of dataset images, the proposed YOLOX-based model attained superior mean average precision. The outcomes of this study could act as a standard against which forthcoming research in this domain could be compared or judged. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the blockchain environment, smart contracts are computer programs that run on the blockchain platform. However, the development of smart contracts is a major challenge for developers, since blockchain platforms are still evolving. Owing to the inherited nature of blockchain, developing smart contracts without introducing vulnerabilities is not an easy task, as the deployed code is immutable and can be invoked by anyone with access to the network. Smart contracts have proved to be error-prone in practice due to the complexity of programming. Additionally, non-functional requirements, such as service cost, security, performance, authorization, and authentication, should be well implemented and defined in computer systems. In this paper, we aim to present a systematic literature review to outline in detail different approaches of smart contracts generation. Furthermore, we present a comparison of the existing approaches based on a classification according to automation paradigm and a set of defined criteria. Finally, we discuss the gaps in the literature, as well as identify a set of potential challenges which can significantly strengthen the existing work. The study shows that the examined works focused only on a limited number of specific features, such as authorization, asset control, and security. Additionally, formal verification of smart contracts and data privacy are poorly addressed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Deep learning-based Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) has achieved excellent classification accuracy. However, most deep learning-based AMC methods have an inherent drawback. They exhibit a strong dependency on massive labeled samples, which is precisely difficult to obtain in real-world scenarios. This paper presents a few-shot AMC approach that integrates signal transformation and meta-learning. The former enhances class separability, while the latter addresses challenges posed by limited sample sizes. The results of simulation experiments conducted on the RadioML.2018.01a dataset demonstrate that the proposed technique achieves a classification accuracy of 74.21% when using one sample per class and increases to 82.27% when using five samples. The few-shot AMC efficacy of this proposed approach exhibits an outperformance over the classical deep learning methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Topic discovery involves identifying the main ideas within large volumes of textual data. It indicates recurring topics in documents, providing an overview of the text. Current topic discovery models receive the text, with or without pre-processing, including stop word removal, text cleaning, and normalization (lowercase conversion). A topic discovery process that receives general domain text with or without processing generates general topics. General topics do not offer detailed overviews of the input text, and manual text categorization is tedious and time-consuming. Extracting topics from text with an automatic classification task is necessary to generate specific topics enriched with top words that maintain semantic relationships among them. Therefore, this paper presents an approach that integrates text classification for topic discovery from large amounts of English textual data, such as 20-Newsgroups and Reuters Corpora. We rely on integrating automatic text classification before the topic discovery process to obtain specific topics for each class with relevant semantic relationships between top words. Text classification performs a word analysis that makes up a document to decide what class or category to identify; then, the proposed integration provides latent and specific topics depicted by top words with high coherence from each obtained class. Text classification accomplishes this with a convolutional neural network (CNN), incorporating an embedding model based on semantic relationships. Topic discovery over categorized text is realized with latent Dirichlet analysis (LDA), probabilistic latent semantic analysis (PLSA), and latent semantic analysis (LSA) algorithms. An evaluation process for topic discovery over categorized text was performed based on the normalized topic coherence metric. The 20-Newsgroups corpus was classified, and twenty topics with the ten top words were identified for each class. The normalized topic coherence obtained was 0.1723 with LDA, 0.1622 with LSA, and 0.1716 with PLSA. The Reuters Corpus was also classified, and twenty and fifty topics were identified. A normalized topic coherence of 0.1441 was achieved when applying the LDA algorithm, obtaining 20 topics for each class; with LSA, the coherence was 0.1360, and with PLSA, it was 0.1436.

Many IP (intellectual property) will also be infringed, and it will become more and more serious, causing huge economic losses to people or groups who own IP. If punitive damages can be made for intentional but intentional infringement of IP, it will help to stop intentional infringement of IP, and it can also give due compensation to the obligee's loss. Based on this, this paper analyzes the introduction and implementation of punitive damages in IP law. In this paper, a relatively efficient text classification method is realized by using the method of deep learning and model design. Similar texts in the training set are grouped into a group, and each group is considered as a common text vector. Then, a threshold is set to deal with clusters higher than the threshold, and the training set is reformed. Through the experimental results, the feature extraction effect of this model is improved, the classification accuracy is constantly improved, and the final convergence rate of this model reaches 95%. It has been verified that the system can realize the automatic classification of basic Chinese patent texts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Automatic classification of videos is a basic task of content archiving and video scene understanding for broadcasters. And the time series modeling is the key to video classification. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new video classification method based on temporal difference networks (TDN), which focuses on capturing multiscale time information for effective action classification. The core idea of TDN is to design an effective time module by clearly using the time difference operator and systematically evaluate its impact on short-term and long-term motion modeling. In order to fully capture the time information of the entire video, TDN has established a two-level difference model. For local motion modeling, the time difference in consecutive frames is used to provide a more refined motion mode for convolutional neural network (CNN). For global motion modeling, the time difference of the segments is combined to capture the remote structure for the extraction of the motion feature. The experimental results on two public video anomaly detection data sets, namely, UCF sports data set and SVW field sports data set, prove that the performance of the proposed method is better than some existing methods.

Cloud-induced atmospheric extinction and occlusion significantly affect the effectiveness and quality of telescope observations. Real-time cloud-cover distribution and long-term statistical data are essential for astronomical siting and telescope operations. Visual inspection is currently the primary approach for analyzing cloud distribution at ground-based astronomical sites. However, the main disadvantages of manual observation methods are human subjectivity, heavy workloads, and poor real-time performance. Therefore, a real-time automatic cloud image classification method is desperately needed. This paper presents a novel cloud identification method named the PSO+XGBoost model, which combines eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) with particle-swarm optimization (PSO). The entire cloud image is divided into 37 sub-regions to identify the distribution of the clouds more precisely. Nineteen features, including the sky background, star density, lighting conditions, and subregion grayscale values, are extracted. The experimental results have shown that the overall classification accuracy is 96.91%, and our model can outperform several state-of-the-art baseline methods. Our approach achieves high accuracy in comparison with the manual observation methods. Moreover, this method meets telescope real-time scheduling requirements. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
