Deep Motion Model for Pedestrian Tracking in 360 Degrees Videos
2019
This paper proposes a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for pedestrian tracking in 360◦ videos based on the target’s motion. The tracking algorithm takes advantage of a virtual Pan-Tilt-Zoom (vPTZ) camera simulated by means of the 360◦ video. The CNN takes in input a motion image, i.e. the difference of two images taken by using the vPTZ camera at different times by the same pan, tilt and zoom parameters. The CNN predicts the vPTZ camera parameter adjustments required to keep the target at the center of the vPTZ camera view. Experiments on a publicly available dataset performed in cross-validation demonstrate that the learned motion model generalizes, and that the proposed tracking algo…
Deep learning techniques for visual object tracking
2023
Visual object tracking plays a crucial role in various vision systems, including biometric analysis, medical imaging, smart traffic systems, and video surveillance. Despite notable advancements in visual object tracking over the past few decades, many tracking algorithms still face challenges due to factors like illumination changes, deformation, and scale variations. This thesis is divided into three parts. The first part introduces the visual object tracking problem and discusses the traditional approaches that have been used to study it. We then propose a novel method called Tracking by Iterative Multi-Refinements, which addresses the issue of locating the target by redefining the search…
McRock at SemEval-2022 Task 4: Patronizing and Condescending Language Detection using Multi-Channel CNN, Hybrid LSTM, DistilBERT and XLNet
2022
In this paper we propose four deep learning models for the task of detecting and classifying Patronizing and Condescending Language (PCL) using a corpus of over 13,000 annotated paragraphs in English. The task, hosted at SemEval-2022, consists of two different subtasks. The Subtask 1 is a binary classification problem. Namely, given a paragraph, a system must predict whether or not it contains any form of PCL. The Subtask 2 is a multi-label classification task. Given a paragraph, a system must identify which PCL categories express the condescension. A paragraph might contain one or more categories of PCL. To face with the first subtask we propose a multi-channel Convolutional Neural Network…
Biometric Fish Classification of Nordic Species Using Convolutional Neural Network with Squeeze-and-Excitation
2018
Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT590 - University of Agder 2018 Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) is a technique within convolutional neural networks (CNN) that can be applied to existing CNNs by applying fullyconnected layers between convolutional layers and merging the outputs. SE was the winning architecture of the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) in 2017. In this thesis, we propose a CNN using the SE architecture for classifying images of sh. Previous work in the eld relies on applying lters to the images to separate the sh from the background or sharpen the images by removing background noise. The images from the dataset are extracted fro…
Deep learning approach for prediction of impact peak appearance at ground reaction force signal of running activity
2020
Protruding impact peak is one of the features of vertical ground reaction force (GRF) that is related to injury risk while running. The present research is dedicated to predicting GRF impact peak appearance by setting a binary classification problem. Kinematic data, namely a number of raw signals in the sagittal plane, collected by the Vicon motion capture system (Oxford Metrics Group, UK) were employed as predictors. Therefore, the input data for the predictive model are presented as a multi-channel time series. Deep learning techniques, namely five convolutional neural network (CNN) models were applied to the binary classification analysis, based on a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) classifi…
Malware Detection in Internet of Things (IoT) Devices Using Deep Learning
2022
Internet of Things (IoT) devices usage is increasing exponentially with the spread of the internet. With the increasing capacity of data on IoT devices, these devices are becoming venerable to malware attacks; therefore, malware detection becomes an important issue in IoT devices. An effective, reliable, and time-efficient mechanism is required for the identification of sophisticated malware. Researchers have proposed multiple methods for malware detection in recent years, however, accurate detection remains a challenge. We propose a deep learning-based ensemble classification method for the detection of malware in IoT devices. It uses a three steps approach; in the first step, data is prep…
Towards visual urban scene understanding for autonomous vehicle path tracking using GPS positioning data.
2019
This PhD thesis focuses on developing a path tracking approach based on visual perception and localization in urban environments. The proposed approach comprises two systems. The first one concerns environment perception. This task is carried out using deep learning techniques to automatically extract 2D visual features and use them to learn in order to distinguish the different objects in the driving scenarios. Three deep learning techniques are adopted: semantic segmentation to assign each image pixel to a class, instance segmentation to identify separated instances of the same class and, image classification to further recognize the specific labels of the instances. Here our system segme…
Real-time implementation of counting people in a crowd on the embedded reconfigurable architecture on the unmanned aerial vehicle
2020
The crowd counting task is an important research problem. Now more and more people are concerned about safety issues. Considering the scenario of a crowded scene: a population density system analyzes the crowds and triggers a warning to divert the crowds when their population density exceeds a normal range. With such a system, the incident of the Shanghai New Year's stampede will not happen again. The most difficult problem of population counting at present: On the one hand, in the densely populated area, how to make the model distinguish human head features more finely, such as head overlap. The second aspect is to find a small-scale local head feature in an image with a wide range of popu…

One-Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks Combined with Channel Selection Strategy for Seizure Prediction Using Long-Term Intracranial EEG
2022
Seizure prediction using intracranial electroencephalogram (iEEG) has attracted an increasing attention during recent years. iEEG signals are commonly recorded in the form of multiple channels. Many previous studies generally used the iEEG signals of all channels to predict seizures, ignoring the consideration of channel selection. In this study, a method of one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1D-CNN) combined with channel selection strategy was proposed for seizure prediction. First, we used 30-s sliding windows to segment the raw iEEG signals. Then, the 30-s iEEG segments, which were in three channel forms (single channel, channels only from seizure onset or free zone and all c…
