Abstract Three recent breakthroughs due to AI in arts and science serve as motivation: An award winning digital image, protein folding, fast matrix multiplication. Many recent developments in artificial neural networks, particularly deep learning (DL), applied and relevant to computational mechanics (solid, fluids, finite-element technology) are reviewed in detail. Both hybrid and pure machine learning (ML) methods are discussed. Hybrid methods combine traditional PDE discretizations with ML methods either (1) to help model complex nonlinear constitutive relations, (2) to nonlinearly reduce the model order for efficient simulation (turbulence), or (3) to accelerate the simulation by predicting certain components in the traditional… More >

Abstract In medical image segmentation task, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are difficult to capture long-range dependencies, but transformers can model the long-range dependencies effectively. However, transformers have a flexible structure and seldom assume the structural bias of input data, so it is difficult for transformers to learn positional encoding of the medical images when using fewer images for training. To solve these problems, a dual branch structure is proposed. In one branch, Mix-Feed-Forward Network (Mix-FFN) and axial attention are adopted to capture long-range dependencies and keep the translation invariance of the model. Mix-FFN whose depth-wise convolutions can provide position information is… More >

Abstract With the increasing popularity of artificial intelligence applications, machine learning is also playing an increasingly important role in the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). As an essential part of the IoV, smart transportation relies heavily on information obtained from images. However, inclement weather, such as snowy weather, negatively impacts the process and can hinder the regular operation of imaging equipment and the acquisition of conventional image information. Not only that, but the snow also makes intelligent transportation systems make the wrong judgment of road conditions and the entire system of the Internet of Vehicles adverse.… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract In the field of traffic sign recognition, traffic signs usually occupy very small areas in the input image. Most object detection algorithms directly reduce the original image to a specific size for the input model during the detection process, which leads to the loss of small object information. Additionally, classification tasks are more sensitive to information loss than localization tasks. This paper proposes a novel traffic sign recognition approach, in which a lightweight pre-locator network and a refined classification network are incorporated. The pre-locator network locates the sub-regions of the traffic signs from the original image, and the refined classification… More >

Abstract Healthcare organizations rely on patients’ feedback and experiences to evaluate their performance and services, thereby allowing such organizations to improve inadequate services and address any shortcomings. According to the literature, social networks and particularly Twitter are effective platforms for gathering public opinions. Moreover, recent studies have used natural language processing to measure sentiments in text segments collected from Twitter to capture public opinions about various sectors, including healthcare. The present study aimed to analyze Arabic Twitter-based patient experience sentiments and to introduce an Arabic patient experience corpus. The authors collected 12,400 tweets from Arabic patients discussing patient experiences related to… More >

Abstract Log anomaly detection is an important paradigm for system troubleshooting. Existing log anomaly detection based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks is time-consuming to handle long sequences. Transformer model is introduced to promote efficiency. However, most existing Transformer-based log anomaly detection methods convert unstructured log messages into structured templates by log parsing, which introduces parsing errors. They only extract simple semantic feature, which ignores other features, and are generally supervised, relying on the amount of labeled data. To overcome the limitations of existing methods, this paper proposes a novel unsupervised log anomaly detection method based on multi-feature (UMFLog). UMFLog includes… More >

Abstract Power transformer is one of the most crucial devices in power grid. It is significant to determine incipient faults of power transformers fast and accurately. Input features play critical roles in fault diagnosis accuracy. In order to further improve the fault diagnosis performance of power transformers, a random forest feature selection method coupled with optimized kernel extreme learning machine is presented in this study. Firstly, the random forest feature selection approach is adopted to rank 42 related input features derived from gas concentration, gas ratio and energy-weighted dissolved gas analysis. Afterwards, a kernel extreme learning machine tuned by the Aquila… More >

Abstract In the past few years, social media and online news platforms have played an essential role in distributing news content rapidly. Consequently. verification of the authenticity of news has become a major challenge. During the COVID-19 outbreak, misinformation and fake news were major sources of confusion and insecurity among the general public. In the first quarter of the year 2020, around 800 people died due to fake news relevant to COVID-19. The major goal of this research was to discover the best learning model for achieving high accuracy and performance. A novel case study of the Fake News Classification using… More >

Abstract Traffic characterization (e.g., chat, video) and application identification (e.g., FTP, Facebook) are two of the more crucial jobs in encrypted network traffic classification. These two activities are typically carried out separately by existing systems using separate models, significantly adding to the difficulty of network administration. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Transformer are deep learning-based approaches for network traffic classification. CNN is good at extracting local features while ignoring long-distance information from the network traffic sequence, and Transformer can capture long-distance feature dependencies while ignoring local details. Based on these characteristics, a multi-task learning model that combines Transformer and 1D-CNN for… More >

Abstract Existing image captioning models usually build the relation between visual information and words to generate captions, which lack spatial information and object classes. To address the issue, we propose a novel Position-Class Awareness Transformer (PCAT) network which can serve as a bridge between the visual features and captions by embedding spatial information and awareness of object classes. In our proposal, we construct our PCAT network by proposing a novel Grid Mapping Position Encoding (GMPE) method and refining the encoder-decoder framework. First, GMPE includes mapping the regions of objects to grids, calculating the relative distance among objects and quantization. Meanwhile, we… More >
