Abstract To solve the problems of low precision of weak feature extraction, heavy reliance on labor and low efficiency of weak feature extraction in X-ray weld detection image of ultra-high voltage (UHV) equipment key parts, an automatic feature extraction algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the original weld image is denoised while retaining the characteristic information of weak defects by the proposed monostable stochastic resonance method. Then, binarization is achieved by combining Laplacian edge detection and Otsu threshold segmentation. Finally, the automatic identification of weld defect area is realized based on the sequential traversal of binary tree. Several characteristic analysis dimensions are established… More >

Abstract Prevailing linguistic steganalysis approaches focus on learning sensitive features to distinguish a particular category of steganographic texts from non-steganographic texts, by performing binary classification. While it remains an unsolved problem and poses a significant threat to the security of cyberspace when various categories of non-steganographic or steganographic texts coexist. In this paper, we propose a general linguistic steganalysis framework named LS-MTL, which introduces the idea of multi-task learning to deal with the classification of various categories of steganographic and non-steganographic texts. LS-MTL captures sensitive linguistic features from multiple related linguistic steganalysis tasks and can concurrently handle diverse tasks with a… More >

Abstract Palmprint identification has been conducted over the last two decades in many biometric systems. High-dimensional data with many uncorrelated and duplicated features remains difficult due to several computational complexity issues. This paper presents an interactive authentication approach based on deep learning and feature selection that supports Palmprint authentication. The proposed model has two stages of learning; the first stage is to transfer pre-trained VGG-16 of ImageNet to specific features based on the extraction model. The second stage involves the VGG-16 Palmprint feature extraction in the Siamese network to learn Palmprint similarity. The proposed model achieves robust and reliable end-to-end Palmprint… More >

Abstract Deep learning (DL) models have been useful in many computer vision, speech recognition, and natural language processing tasks in recent years. These models seem a natural fit to handle the rising number of biometric recognition problems, from cellphone authentication to airport security systems. DL approaches have recently been utilized to improve the efficiency of various biometric recognition systems. Iris recognition was considered the more reliable and accurate biometric detection method accessible. Iris recognition has been an active research region in the last few decades due to its extensive applications, from security in airports to homeland security border control. This article… More >

Abstract Crop protection is a great obstacle to food safety, with crop diseases being one of the most serious issues. Plant diseases diminish the quality of crop yield. To detect disease spots on grape leaves, deep learning technology might be employed. On the other hand, the precision and efficiency of identification remain issues. The quantity of images of ill leaves taken from plants is often uneven. With an uneven collection and few images, spotting disease is hard. The plant leaves dataset needs to be expanded to detect illness accurately. A novel hybrid technique employing segmentation, augmentation, and a capsule neural network… More >

Abstract The field of object tracking has recently made significant progress. Particularly, the performance results in both deep learning and correlation filters, based trackers achieved effective tracking performance. Moreover, there are still some difficulties with object tracking for example illumination and deformation (DEF). The precision and accuracy of tracking algorithms suffer from the effects of such occurrences. For this situation, finding a solution is important. This research proposes a new tracking algorithm to handle this problem. The features are extracted by using Modified LeNet-5, and the precision and accuracy are improved by developing the Real-Time Cross-modality Correlation Filtering method (RCCF). In… More >

Abstract Women from middle age to old age are mostly screened positive for Breast cancer which leads to death. Times over the past decades, the overall survival rate in breast cancer has improved due to advancements in early-stage diagnosis and tailored therapy. Today all hospital brings high awareness and early detection technologies for breast cancer. This increases the survival rate of women. Though traditional breast cancer treatment takes so long, early cancer techniques require an automation system. This research provides a new methodology for classifying breast cancer using ultrasound pictures that use deep learning and the combination of the best characteristics.… More >

Abstract In recent years, biometric sensors are applicable for identifying important individual information and accessing the control using various identifiers by including the characteristics like a fingerprint, palm print, iris recognition, and so on. However, the precise identification of human features is still physically challenging in humans during their lifetime resulting in a variance in their appearance or features. In response to these challenges, a novel Multimodal Biometric Feature Extraction (MBFE) model is proposed to extract the features from the noisy sensor data using a modified Ranking-based Deep Convolution Neural Network (RDCNN). The proposed MBFE model enables the feature extraction from… More >

Abstract Globally, depression is perceived as the most recurrent and risky disorder among young people and adults under the age of 60. Depression has a strong influence on the usage of words which can be observed in the form of written texts or stories posted on social media. With the help of Natural Language Processing(NLP) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques, the depressive signs expressed by people can be identified at the earliest stage from their Social Media posts. The proposed work aims to introduce an efficacious depression detection model unifying an exemplary feature extraction scheme and a hybrid Long Short-Term Memory… More >
