Full Reference Mesh Visual Quality Assessment Using Pre-Trained Deep Network and Quality Indices
2019
In this paper, we propose an objective quality metric to evaluate the perceived visual quality of 3D meshes. Our method relies on pre-trained convolutional neural network i.e VGG to extract features from the distorted mesh and its reference. Quality indices from well-known mesh visual quality metrics are concatenated with the extracted features resulting a global feature vector. this latter is used to learn the support vector regression (SVR) to predict the final quality score. Experimental results from two subjective databases (LIRIS masking database and LIRIS/EPFL general-purpose database) and comparisons with seven objective metrics cited in the state-of-the-art demonstrate the effective…
Automatic Detection of Infantile Hemangioma using Convolutional Neural Network Approach
2020
Infantile hemangioma is the most common tumor of childhood. This study proposes an automatic detection as a preliminary step for a further accurate monitoring tool to evaluate the clinical status of hemangioma. For the detection of hemangioma pixels, a convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained on patches of two classes (hemangioma and nonhemangioma) from the train dataset, and then it was used to classify all the pixels of the region of interest from the test dataset. In order to evaluate the results of segmentation obtained with CNN, the region of interest of the test dataset was also segmented using two classical methods of segmentation: fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) and segmentatio…
A Sentiment Enhanced Deep Collaborative Filtering Recommender System
2021
Recommender systems use advanced analytic and learning techniques to select relevant information from massive data and inform users’ smart decision-making on their daily needs. Numerous works exploiting user’s sentiments on products to enhance recommendations have been introduced. However, there has been relatively less work exploring higher-order user-item features interactions for sentiment enhanced recommender system. In this paper, a novel Sentiment Enhanced Deep Collaborative Filtering Recommender System (SE-DCF) is developed. The architecture is based on a Neural Attention network component aggregated with the output predictions of a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) recommender. Speci…
Reduced Reference Mesh Visual Quality Assessment Based on Convolutional Neural Network
2018
3D meshes are usually affected by various visual distortions during their transmission and geometric processing. In this paper we propose a reduced reference method for mesh visual quality assessment. The method compares features extracted from the distorted mesh and the original one using a convolutional neural network in order to estimate the visual quality score. The perceptual distance between two meshes is computed as the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the two sets of feature vectors. Experimental results from two subjective databases (LIRIS masking database and LIRIS/EPFL general purpose database) and comparisons with seven objective metrics cited in the state-of-the-art demonstr…
Deep learning model deploying on embedded skin cancer diagnostic device
2020
The number of research papers, where neural networks are applied in medical image analysis is growing. There is a proof that Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are able to differentiate skin cancer from nevi with greater accuracy than experienced specialists on average (sensitivity 82% and 73% accordingly).1 Team's latest research2 allows achieving even greater accuracy, by using specific narrow-band illumination. Nevertheless, the overall probability of early skin cancer detection depends on the availability of diagnostic tools. If screening tools will be available to a high number of general practices, the chance of disease detection will increase. The previous research3 shows that scala…
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…
One and Two Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks for Seizure Detection Using EEG Signals
2021
Deep learning for the automated detection of epileptic seizures has received much attention during recent years. In this work, one dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) and two dimensional convolutional neural network (2D-CNN) are simultaneously used on electroencephalogram (EEG) data for seizure detection. Firstly, using sliding windows without overlap on raw EEG to obtain the definite one-dimension time EEG segments (1D-T), and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) for 1D-T signals to obtain the two-dimension time-frequency representations (2D-TF). Then, 1D-CNN and 2D-CNN model architectures are used on 1D-T and 2D-TF signals for automatic classification, respectively. Finally, t…
Shared feature representations of LiDAR and optical images: Trading sparsity for semantic discrimination
2015
This paper studies the level of complementary information conveyed by extremely high resolution LiDAR and optical images. We pursue this goal following an indirect approach via unsupervised spatial-spectral feature extraction. We used a recently presented unsupervised convolutional neural network trained to enforce both population and lifetime spar-sity in the feature representation. We derived independent and joint feature representations, and analyzed the sparsity scores and the discriminative power. Interestingly, the obtained results revealed that the RGB+LiDAR representation is no longer sparse, and the derived basis functions merge color and elevation yielding a set of more expressive…
Emulating the Effects of Radiation-Induced Soft-Errors for the Reliability Assessment of Neural Networks
2021
International audience; Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are currently one of the most widely used predictive models in machine learning. Recent studies have demonstrated that hardware faults induced by radiation fields, including cosmic rays, may significantly impact the CNN inference leading to wrong predictions. Therefore, ensuring the reliability of CNNs is crucial, especially for safety-critical systems. In the literature, several works propose reliability assessments of CNNs mainly based on statistically injected faults. This work presents a software emulator capable of injecting real faults retrieved from radiation tests. Specifically, from the device characterisation of a DRAM m…
Farm-Scale Crop Yield Prediction from Multi-Temporal Data Using Deep Hybrid Neural Networks
2021
Farm-scale crop yield prediction is a natural development of sustainable agriculture, producing a rich amount of food without depleting and polluting environmental resources. Recent studies on crop yield production are limited to regional-scale predictions. The regional-scale crop yield predictions usually face challenges in capturing local yield variations based on farm management decisions and the condition of the field. For this research, we identified the need to create a large and reusable farm-scale crop yield production dataset, which could provide precise farm-scale ground-truth prediction targets. Therefore, we utilise multi-temporal data, such as Sentinel-2 satellite images, weath…
