Abstract Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a complication of diabetes that can lead to reduced vision or even blindness if left untreated. Therefore, early and accurate detection of this disease is crucial for diabetic patients to prevent vision loss. This study aims to develop a deep-learning approach for the early and precise diagnosis of DR, as manual detection can be time-consuming, costly, and prone to human error. The classification task is divided into two groups for binary classification: patients with DR (diagnoses 1–4) and those without DR (diagnosis 0). For multi-class classification, the categories are no DR,… More >

Abstract To accurately diagnose misfire faults in automotive engines, we propose a Channel Attention Convolutional Model, specifically the Squeeze-and-Excitation Networks (SENET), for classifying engine vibration signals and precisely pinpointing misfire faults. In the experiment, we established a total of 11 distinct states, encompassing the engine’s normal state, single-cylinder misfire faults, and dual-cylinder misfire faults for different cylinders. Data collection was facilitated by a highly sensitive acceleration signal collector with a high sampling rate of 20,840 Hz. The collected data were methodically divided into training and testing sets based on different experimental groups to ensure generalization and… More >

Abstract Human beings are often affected by a wide range of skin diseases, which can be attributed to genetic factors and environmental influences, such as exposure to sunshine with ultraviolet (UV) rays. If left untreated, these diseases can have severe consequences and spread, especially among children. Early detection is crucial to prevent their spread and improve a patient’s chances of recovery. Dermatology, the branch of medicine dealing with skin diseases, faces challenges in accurately diagnosing these conditions due to the difficulty in identifying and distinguishing between different diseases based on their appearance, type of skin, and… More >

Abstract In the rapidly evolving urban landscape, outdoor parking lots have become an indispensable part of the city’s transportation system. The growth of parking lots has raised the likelihood of spontaneous vehicle combustion, a significant safety hazard, making smoke detection an essential preventative step. However, the complex environment of outdoor parking lots presents additional challenges for smoke detection, which necessitates the development of more advanced and reliable smoke detection technologies. This paper addresses this concern and presents a novel smoke detection technique designed for the demanding environment of outdoor parking lots. First, we develop a novel… More >

Abstract Handwritten character recognition (HCR) involves identifying characters in images, documents, and various sources such as forms surveys, questionnaires, and signatures, and transforming them into a machine-readable format for subsequent processing. Successfully recognizing complex and intricately shaped handwritten characters remains a significant obstacle. The use of convolutional neural network (CNN) in recent developments has notably advanced HCR, leveraging the ability to extract discriminative features from extensive sets of raw data. Because of the absence of pre-existing datasets in the Kurdish language, we created a Kurdish handwritten dataset called (KurdSet). The dataset consists of Kurdish characters, digits,… More >

Abstract On the transmission line, the invasion of foreign objects such as kites, plastic bags, and balloons and the damage to electronic components are common transmission line faults. Detecting these faults is of great significance for the safe operation of power systems. Therefore, a YOLOv5 target detection method based on a deep convolution neural network is proposed. In this paper, Mobilenetv2 is used to replace Cross Stage Partial (CSP)-Darknet53 as the backbone. The structure uses depth-wise separable convolution toreduce the amount of calculation and parameters; improve the detection rate. At the same time, to compensate for… More >

Abstract Convolution neural networks in deep learning can solve the problem of damage identification based on vibration acceleration. By combining multiple 1D DenseNet submodels, a new ensemble learning method is proposed to improve identification accuracy. 1D DenseNet is built using standard 1D CNN and DenseNet basic blocks, and the acceleration data obtained from multiple sampling points is brought into the 1D DenseNet training to generate submodels after offset sampling. When using submodels for damage identification, the voting method ideas in ensemble learning are used to vote on the results of each submodel, and then vote centrally. More >

Abstract It can be said that the automatic classification of musical genres plays a very important role in the current digital technology world in which the creation, distribution, and enjoyment of musical works have undergone huge changes. As the number of music products increases daily and the music genres are extremely rich, storing, classifying, and searching these works manually becomes difficult, if not impossible. Automatic classification of musical genres will contribute to making this possible. The research presented in this paper proposes an appropriate deep learning model along with an effective data augmentation method to achieve… More >

Abstract Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease that impairs knee function and causes pain. Currently, studies on the detection of knee OA mainly focus on X-ray images, but X-ray images are insensitive to the changes in knee OA in the early stage. Since magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can observe the early features of knee OA, the knee OA detection algorithm based on MR image is innovatively proposed to judge whether knee OA is suffered. Firstly, the knee MR images are preprocessed before training, including a region of interest clipping, slice selection, and data augmentation. Then… More >

Abstract Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computer Vision (CV) advancements have led to many useful methodologies in recent years, particularly to help visually-challenged people. Object detection includes a variety of challenges, for example, handling multiple class images, images that get augmented when captured by a camera and so on. The test images include all these variants as well. These detection models alert them about their surroundings when they want to walk independently. This study compares four CNN-based pre-trained models: Residual Network (ResNet-50), Inception v3, Dense Convolutional Network (DenseNet-121), and SqueezeNet, predominantly used in image recognition applications.
