Abstract Deep learning (DL) has emerged as a powerful subset of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), outperforming traditional ML methods, especially in handling unstructured and large datasets. Its impact spans across various domains, including speech recognition, healthcare, autonomous vehicles, cybersecurity, predictive analytics, and more. However, the complexity and dynamic nature of real-world problems present challenges in designing effective deep learning models. Consequently, several deep learning models have been developed to address different problems and applications. In this article, we conduct a comprehensive survey of various deep learning models, including Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Recurrent… More >

Abstract Ransomware has emerged as a critical cybersecurity threat, characterized by its ability to encrypt user data or lock devices, demanding ransom for their release. Traditional ransomware detection methods face limitations due to their assumption of similar data distributions between training and testing phases, rendering them less effective against evolving ransomware families. This paper introduces TLERAD (Transfer Learning for Enhanced Ransomware Attack Detection), a novel approach that leverages unsupervised transfer learning and co-clustering techniques to bridge the gap between source and target domains, enabling robust detection of both known and unknown ransomware variants. The proposed method More >

Abstract Considering experimental testing data is costly, and sensor data is often sparse, while simulation analysis provides overall strength information with lower accuracy, a digital twin framework is proposed for full-field structural strength assessment and prediction. The framework is mainly divided into two stages. In the offline stage, the simulation model of the structure is established, and the sensor layouts are completed. Then, the DNN pre-training model is constructed based on the reduced simulation data. In the online stage, the experimentally measured data are predicted to obtain the time-series sensors data, and the traditional transfer learning… 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 Breast cancer diagnosis through mammography is a pivotal application within medical image-based diagnostics, integral for early detection and effective treatment. While deep learning has significantly advanced the analysis of mammographic images, challenges such as low contrast, image noise, and the high dimensionality of features often degrade model performance. Addressing these challenges, our study introduces a novel method integrating Genetic Algorithms (GA) with pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models to enhance feature selection and classification accuracy. Our approach involves a systematic process: first, we employ widely-used CNN architectures (VGG16, VGG19, MobileNet, and DenseNet) to extract a… More >

Abstract Cancer poses a significant threat due to its aggressive nature, potential for widespread metastasis, and inherent heterogeneity, which often leads to resistance to chemotherapy. Lung cancer ranks among the most prevalent forms of cancer worldwide, affecting individuals of all genders. Timely and accurate lung cancer detection is critical for improving cancer patients’ treatment outcomes and survival rates. Screening examinations for lung cancer detection, however, frequently fall short of detecting small polyps and cancers. To address these limitations, computer-aided techniques for lung cancer detection prove to be invaluable resources for both healthcare practitioners and patients alike.… More >

Abstract Diabetes is a serious health condition that can cause several issues in human body organs such as the heart and kidney as well as a serious eye disease called diabetic retinopathy (DR). Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent complete blindness or partial vision loss. Traditional detection methods, which involve ophthalmologists examining retinal fundus images, are subjective, expensive, and time-consuming. Therefore, this study employs artificial intelligence (AI) technology to perform faster and more accurate binary classifications and determine the presence of DR. In this regard, we employed three promising machine learning models namely, support… More >

Abstract Aiming at the limitations of the existing railway foreign object detection methods based on two-dimensional (2D) images, such as short detection distance, strong influence of environment and lack of distance information, we propose Rail-PillarNet, a three-dimensional (3D) LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) railway foreign object detection method based on the improvement of PointPillars. Firstly, the parallel attention pillar encoder (PAPE) is designed to fully extract the features of the pillars and alleviate the problem of local fine-grained information loss in PointPillars pillars encoder. Secondly, a fine backbone network is designed to improve the feature extraction… More >

Abstract Laboratory safety is a critical area of broad societal concern, particularly in the detection of abnormal actions. To enhance the efficiency and accuracy of detecting such actions, this paper introduces a novel method called TubeRAPT (Tubelet Transformer based on Adapter and Prefix Training Module). This method primarily comprises three key components: the TubeR network, an adaptive clustering attention mechanism, and a prefix training module. These components work in synergy to address the challenge of knowledge preservation in models pre-trained on large datasets while maintaining training efficiency. The TubeR network serves as the backbone for spatio-temporal… More >
