    LC-NPLA: Label and Community Information-Based Network Presentation Learning Algorithm

    Shihu Liu, Chunsheng Yang*, Yingjie Liu
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.38, No.3, pp. 203-223, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.040818

    Abstract Many network presentation learning algorithms (NPLA) have originated from the process of the random walk between nodes in recent years. Despite these algorithms can obtain great embedding results, there may be also some limitations. For instance, only the structural information of nodes is considered when these kinds of algorithms are constructed. Aiming at this issue, a label and community information-based network presentation learning algorithm (LC-NPLA) is proposed in this paper. First of all, by using the community information and the label information of nodes, the first-order neighbors of nodes are reconstructed. In the next, the random walk strategy is improved… More >

    Deep Learning-Based Digital Image Forgery Detection Using Transfer Learning

    Emad Ul Haq Qazi1,*, Tanveer Zia1, Muhammad Imran2, Muhammad Hamza Faheem1
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.38, No.3, pp. 225-240, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.041181
    Abstract Deep learning is considered one of the most efficient and reliable methods through which the legitimacy of a digital image can be verified. In the current cyber world where deepfakes have shaken the global community, confirming the legitimacy of a digital image is of great importance. With the advancements made in deep learning techniques, now we can efficiently train and develop state-of-the-art digital image forensic models. The most traditional and widely used method by researchers is convolution neural networks (CNN) for verification of image authenticity but it consumes a considerable number of resources and requires a large dataset for training.… More >

    Abstract Spammer detection is to identify and block malicious activities performing users. Such users should be identified and terminated from social media to keep the social media process organic and to maintain the integrity of online social spaces. Previous research aimed to find spammers based on hybrid approaches of graph mining, posted content, and metadata, using small and manually labeled datasets. However, such hybrid approaches are unscalable, not robust, particular dataset dependent, and require numerous parameters, complex graphs, and natural language processing (NLP) resources to make decisions, which makes spammer detection impractical for real-time detection. For example, graph mining requires neighbors’… More >

    Ash Detection of Coal Slime Flotation Tailings Based on Chromatographic Filter Paper Sampling and Multi-Scale Residual Network

    Wenbo Zhu1, Neng Liu1, Zhengjun Zhu2,*, Haibing Li1, Weijie Fu1, Zhongbo Zhang1, Xinghao Zhang1
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.38, No.3, pp. 259-273, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.041860
    Abstract The detection of ash content in coal slime flotation tailings using deep learning can be hindered by various factors such as foam, impurities, and changing lighting conditions that disrupt the collection of tailings images. To address this challenge, we present a method for ash content detection in coal slime flotation tailings. This method utilizes chromatographic filter paper sampling and a multi-scale residual network, which we refer to as MRCN. Initially, tailings are sampled using chromatographic filter paper to obtain static tailings images, effectively isolating interference factors at the flotation site. Subsequently, the MRCN, consisting of a multi-scale residual network, is… More >

    Deep Learning Model for News Quality Evaluation Based on Explicit and Implicit Information

    Guohui Song1,2, Yongbin Wang1,*, Jianfei Li1, Hongbin Hu1
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.38, No.3, pp. 275-295, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.041873

    Abstract Recommending high-quality news to users is vital in improving user stickiness and news platforms’ reputation. However, existing news quality evaluation methods, such as clickbait detection and popularity prediction, are challenging to reflect news quality comprehensively and concisely. This paper defines news quality as the ability of news articles to elicit clicks and comments from users, which represents whether the news article can attract widespread attention and discussion. Based on the above definition, this paper first presents a straightforward method to measure news quality based on the comments and clicks of news and defines four news quality indicators. Then, the dataset… More >

    A New Flower Pollination Algorithm Strategy for MPPT of Partially Shaded Photovoltaic Arrays

    Muhannad J. Alshareef*
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.38, No.3, pp. 297-313, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.046722

    Abstract Photovoltaic (PV) systems utilize maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controllers to optimize power output amidst varying environmental conditions. However, the presence of multiple peaks resulting from partial shading poses a challenge to the tracking operation. Under partial shade conditions, the global maximum power point (GMPP) may be missed by most traditional maximum power point tracker. The flower pollination algorithm (FPA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are two examples of metaheuristic techniques that can be used to solve the issue of failing to track the GMPP. This paper discusses and resolves all issues associated with using the standard FPA method as… More >

    Optimizing Deep Neural Networks for Face Recognition to Increase Training Speed and Improve Model Accuracy

    Mostafa Diba*, Hossein Khosravi
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.38, No.3, pp. 315-332, 2023, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2023.046590
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Deep Learning, IoT, and Blockchain in Medical Data Processing )
    Abstract Convolutional neural networks continually evolve to enhance accuracy in addressing various problems, leading to an increase in computational cost and model size. This paper introduces a novel approach for pruning face recognition models based on convolutional neural networks. The proposed method identifies and removes inefficient filters based on the information volume in feature maps. In each layer, some feature maps lack useful information, and there exists a correlation between certain feature maps. Filters associated with these two types of feature maps impose additional computational costs on the model. By eliminating filters related to these categories of feature maps, the reduction… More >
