Abstract Significant advancements have been witnessed in visual tracking applications leveraging ViT in recent years, mainly due to the formidable modeling capabilities of Vision Transformer (ViT). However, the strong performance of such trackers heavily relies on ViT models pretrained for long periods, limiting more flexible model designs for tracking tasks. To address this issue, we propose an efficient unsupervised ViT pretraining method for the tracking task based on masked autoencoders, called TrackMAE. During pretraining, we employ two shared-parameter ViTs, serving as the appearance encoder and motion encoder, respectively. The appearance encoder encodes randomly masked image data,… More >

Abstract The widespread usage of Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) generates a vast volume of time series data, and precisely determining anomalies in the data is critical for practical production. Autoencoder is the mainstream method for time series anomaly detection, and the anomaly is judged by reconstruction error. However, due to the strong generalization ability of neural networks, some abnormal samples close to normal samples may be judged as normal, which fails to detect the abnormality. In addition, the dataset rarely provides sufficient anomaly labels. This research proposes an unsupervised anomaly detection approach based on adversarial memory… More >

Abstract Visual motion segmentation (VMS) is an important and key part of many intelligent crowd systems. It can be used to figure out the flow behavior through a crowd and to spot unusual life-threatening incidents like crowd stampedes and crashes, which pose a serious risk to public safety and have resulted in numerous fatalities over the past few decades. Trajectory clustering has become one of the most popular methods in VMS. However, complex data, such as a large number of samples and parameters, makes it difficult for trajectory clustering to work well with accurate motion segmentation… More >

Abstract Contemporary attackers, mainly motivated by financial gain, consistently devise sophisticated penetration techniques to access important information or data. The growing use of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in the contemporary convergence environment to connect to corporate networks and cloud-based applications only worsens this situation, as it facilitates multiple new attack vectors to emerge effortlessly. As such, existing intrusion detection systems suffer from performance degradation mainly because of insufficient considerations and poorly modeled detection systems. To address this problem, we designed a blended threat detection approach, considering the possible impact and dimensionality of new attack surfaces… More >

Abstract Gender analysis of Twitter could reveal significant socio-cultural differences between female and male users. Efforts had been made to analyze and automatically infer gender formerly for more commonly spoken languages’ content, but, as we now know that limited work is being undertaken for Arabic. Most of the research works are done mainly for English and least amount of effort for non-English language. The study for Arabic demographic inference like gender is relatively uncommon for social networking users, especially for Twitter. Therefore, this study aims to design an optimal marginalized stacked denoising autoencoder for gender identification… More >

Abstract In modern industry, process monitoring plays a significant role in improving the quality of process conduct. With the higher dimensional of the industrial data, the monitoring methods based on the latent variables have been widely applied in order to decrease the wasting of the industrial database. Nevertheless, these latent variables do not usually follow the Gaussian distribution and thus perform unsuitable when applying some statistics indices, especially the T2 on them. Variational AutoEncoders (VAE), an unsupervised deep learning algorithm using the hierarchy study method, has the ability to make the latent variables follow the Gaussian More >

Abstract Tea plant cultivation plays a significant role in the Indian economy. The Tea board of India supports tea farmers to increase tea production by preventing various diseases in Tea Plant. Various climatic factors and other parameters cause these diseases. In this paper, the image retrieval model is developed to identify whether the given input tea leaf image has a disease or is healthy. Automation in image retrieval is a hot topic in the industry as it doesn’t require any form of metadata related to the images for storing or retrieval. Deep Hashing with Integrated Autoencoders… More >

Abstract Cancer is one of the most critical diseases that has caused several deaths in today’s world. In most cases, doctors and practitioners are only able to diagnose cancer in its later stages. In the later stages, planning cancer treatment and increasing the patient’s survival rate becomes a very challenging task. Therefore, it becomes the need of the hour to detect cancer in the early stages for appropriate treatment and surgery planning. Analysis and interpretation of medical images such as MRI and CT scans help doctors and practitioners diagnose many diseases, including cancer disease. However, manual… More >

Abstract With the advancement of human-computer interaction and artificial intelligence, emotion recognition has received significant research attention. The most commonly used technique for emotion recognition is EEG, which is directly associated with the central nervous system and contains strong emotional features. However, there are some disadvantages to using EEG signals. They require high dimensionality, diverse and complex processing procedures which make real-time computation difficult. In addition, there are problems in data acquisition and interpretation due to body movement or reduced concentration of the experimenter. In this paper, we used photoplethysmography (PPG) and electromyography (EMG) to record… More >

Abstract Invoice document digitization is crucial for efficient management in industries. The scanned invoice image is often noisy due to various reasons. This affects the OCR (optical character recognition) detection accuracy. In this paper, letter data obtained from images of invoices are denoised using a modified autoencoder based deep learning method. A stacked denoising autoencoder (SDAE) is implemented with two hidden layers each in encoder network and decoder network. In order to capture the most salient features of training samples, a undercomplete autoencoder is designed with non-linear encoder and decoder function. This autoencoder is regularized for… More >
