Abstract Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being increasingly used for diagnosing Vision-Threatening Diabetic Retinopathy (VTDR), which is a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness worldwide. However, previous automated VTDR detection methods have mainly relied on manual feature extraction and classification, leading to errors. This paper proposes a novel VTDR detection and classification model that combines different models through majority voting. Our proposed methodology involves preprocessing, data augmentation, feature extraction, and classification stages. We use a hybrid convolutional neural network-singular value decomposition (CNN-SVD) model for feature extraction and selection and an improved SVM-RBF with a Decision Tree (DT) and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN)… More >

Abstract What causes object detection in video to be less accurate than it is in still images? Because some video frames have degraded in appearance from fast movement, out-of-focus camera shots, and changes in posture. These reasons have made video object detection (VID) a growing area of research in recent years. Video object detection can be used for various healthcare applications, such as detecting and tracking tumors in medical imaging, monitoring the movement of patients in hospitals and long-term care facilities, and analyzing videos of surgeries to improve technique and training. Additionally, it can be used in telemedicine to help diagnose… More >

Abstract Deep learning (DL) plays a critical role in processing and converting data into knowledge and decisions. DL technologies have been applied in a variety of applications, including image, video, and genome sequence analysis. In deep learning the most widely utilized architecture is Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are taught discriminatory traits in a supervised environment. In comparison to other classic neural networks, CNN makes use of a limited number of artificial neurons, therefore it is ideal for the recognition and processing of wheat gene sequences. Wheat is an essential crop of cereals for people around the world. Wheat Genotypes identification has… More >

Abstract Recently, the coronavirus disease 2019 has shown excellent attention in the global community regarding health and the economy. World Health Organization (WHO) and many others advised controlling Corona Virus Disease in 2019. The limited treatment resources, medical resources, and unawareness of immunity is an essential horizon to unfold. Among all resources, wearing a mask is the primary non-pharmaceutical intervention to stop the spreading of the virus caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) droplets. All countries made masks mandatory to prevent infection. For such enforcement, automatic and effective face detection systems are crucial. This study presents a face… More >

Abstract Angular contact ball bearings have been widely used in machine tool spindles, and the bearing preload plays an important role in the performance of the spindle. In order to solve the problems of the traditional optimal preload prediction method limited by actual conditions and uncertainties, a roller bearing preload test method based on the improved D-S evidence theory multi-sensor fusion method was proposed. First, a novel controllable preload system is proposed and evaluated. Subsequently, multiple sensors are employed to collect data on the bearing parameters during preload application. Finally, a multisensor fusion algorithm is used to make predictions, and a… More >

Abstract Diagnosing multi-stage diseases typically requires doctors to consider multiple data sources, including clinical symptoms, physical signs, biochemical test results, imaging findings, pathological examination data, and even genetic data. When applying machine learning modeling to predict and diagnose multi-stage diseases, several challenges need to be addressed. Firstly, the model needs to handle multimodal data, as the data used by doctors for diagnosis includes image data, natural language data, and structured data. Secondly, privacy of patients’ data needs to be protected, as these data contain the most sensitive and private information. Lastly, considering the practicality of the model, the computational requirements should… More >

Abstract Transfer learning could reduce the time and resources required by the training of new models and be therefore important for generalized applications of the trained machine learning algorithms. In this study, a transfer learning-enhanced convolutional neural network (CNN) was proposed to identify the gross weight and the axle weight of moving vehicles on the bridge. The proposed transfer learning-enhanced CNN model was expected to weigh different bridges based on a small amount of training datasets and provide high identification accuracy. First of all, a CNN algorithm for bridge weigh-in-motion (B-WIM) technology was proposed to identify the axle weight and the… More >

Abstract Social robot accounts controlled by artificial intelligence or humans are active in social networks, bringing negative impacts to network security and social life. Existing social robot detection methods based on graph neural networks suffer from the problem of many social network nodes and complex relationships, which makes it difficult to accurately describe the difference between the topological relations of nodes, resulting in low detection accuracy of social robots. This paper proposes a social robot detection method with the use of an improved neural network. First, social relationship subgraphs are constructed by leveraging the user’s social network to disentangle intricate social… More >
