Abstract Turmeric Leaf diseases pose a major threat to turmeric cultivation, causing significant yield loss and economic impact. Early and accurate identification of these diseases is essential for effective crop management and timely intervention. This study proposes DenseSwinGNNNet, a hybrid deep learning framework that integrates DenseNet-121, the Swin Transformer, and a Graph Neural Network (GNN) to enhance the classification of turmeric leaf conditions. DenseNet121 extracts discriminative low-level features, the Swin Transformer captures long-range contextual relationships through hierarchical self-attention, and the GNN models inter-feature dependencies to refine the final representation.

Abstract The rapid and accurate assessment of structural damage following an earthquake is crucial for effective emergency response and post-disaster recovery. Traditional manual inspection methods are often slow, labor-intensive, and prone to human error. To address these challenges, this study proposes STPEIC (Swin Transformer-based Framework for Interpretable Post-Earthquake Structural Classification), an automated deep learning framework designed for analyzing post-earthquake images. STPEIC performs two key tasks: structural components classification and damage level classification. By leveraging the hierarchical attention mechanisms of the Swin Transformer (Shifted Window Transformer), the model achieves 85.4% accuracy in structural component classification and 85.1% More >

Abstract Earlier notification and fire detection methods provide safety information and fire prevention to blind and visually impaired (BVI) individuals in a limited timeframe in the event of emergencies, particularly in enclosed areas. Fire detection becomes crucial as it directly impacts human safety and the environment. While modern technology requires precise techniques for early detection to prevent damage and loss, few research has focused on artificial intelligence (AI)-based early fire alert systems for BVI individuals in indoor settings. To prevent such fire incidents, it is crucial to identify fires accurately and promptly, and alert BVI personnel… More >

Abstract Remote sensing plays a pivotal role in environmental monitoring, disaster relief, and urban planning, where accurate scene classification of aerial images is essential. However, conventional convolutional neural networks (CNNs) struggle with long-range dependencies and preserving high-resolution features, limiting their effectiveness in complex aerial image analysis. To address these challenges, we propose a Hybrid HRNet-Swin Transformer model that synergizes the strengths of HRNet-W48 for high-resolution segmentation and the Swin Transformer for global feature extraction. This hybrid architecture ensures robust multi-scale feature fusion, capturing fine-grained details and broader contextual relationships in aerial imagery. Our methodology begins with… More >

Abstract EEG signals are widely used in emotion recognition due to their ability to reflect involuntary physiological responses. However, the high dimensionality of EEG signals and their continuous variability in the time-frequency plane make their analysis challenging. Therefore, advanced deep learning methods are needed to extract meaningful features and improve classification performance. This study proposes a hybrid model that integrates the Swin Transformer and Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) mechanisms for EEG-based emotion recognition. EEG signals are first converted into scalogram images using Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), and classification is performed on these images. Swin Transformer is… More >

Abstract Network traffic classification is a crucial research area aimed at improving quality of service, simplifying network management, and enhancing network security. To address the growing complexity of cryptography, researchers have proposed various machine learning and deep learning approaches to tackle this challenge. However, existing mainstream methods face several general issues. On one hand, the widely used Transformer architecture exhibits high computational complexity, which negatively impacts its efficiency. On the other hand, traditional methods are often unreliable in traffic representation, frequently losing important byte information while retaining unnecessary biases.

Abstract In the field of automated fruit harvesting, precise and efficient fruit target recognition and localization play a pivotal role in enhancing the efficiency of harvesting robots. However, this domain faces two core challenges: firstly, the dynamic nature of the automatic picking process requires fruit target detection algorithms to adapt to multi-view characteristics, ensuring effective recognition of the same fruit from different perspectives. Secondly, fruits in natural environments often suffer from interference factors such as overlapping, occlusion, and illumination fluctuations, which increase the difficulty of image capture and recognition.
