RNN- and LSTM-Based Soft Sensors Transferability for an Industrial Process
2021
The design and application of Soft Sensors (SSs) in the process industry is a growing research field, which needs to mediate problems of model accuracy with data availability and computational complexity. Black-box machine learning (ML) methods are often used as an efficient tool to implement SSs. Many efforts are, however, required to properly select input variables, model class, model order and the needed hyperparameters. The aim of this work was to investigate the possibility to transfer the knowledge acquired in the design of a SS for a given process to a similar one. This has been approached as a transfer learning problem from a source to a target domain. The implementation of a transf…
Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning for Simulating Pedestrian Navigation
2012
In this paper we introduce a Multi-agent system that uses Reinforcement Learning (RL) techniques to learn local navigational behaviors to simulate virtual pedestrian groups. The aim of the paper is to study empirically the validity of RL to learn agent-based navigation controllers and their transfer capabilities when they are used in simulation environments with a higher number of agents than in the learned scenario. Two RL algorithms which use Vector Quantization (VQ) as the generalization method for the space state are presented. Both strategies are focused on obtaining a good vector quantizier that generalizes adequately the state space of the agents. We empirically state the convergence…
Open Set Audio Classification Using Autoencoders Trained on Few Data.
2020
Open-set recognition (OSR) is a challenging machine learning problem that appears when classifiers are faced with test instances from classes not seen during training. It can be summarized as the problem of correctly identifying instances from a known class (seen during training) while rejecting any unknown or unwanted samples (those belonging to unseen classes). Another problem arising in practical scenarios is few-shot learning (FSL), which appears when there is no availability of a large number of positive samples for training a recognition system. Taking these two limitations into account, a new dataset for OSR and FSL for audio data was recently released to promote research on solution…
Transferability of Deep Learning Algorithms for Malignancy Detection in Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy Images from Different Anatomical Locations of t…
2019
Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) is the most common cancer type of the epithelium and is often detected at a late stage. Besides invasive diagnosis of SCC by means of biopsy and histo-pathologic assessment, Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) has emerged as noninvasive method that was successfully used to diagnose SCC in vivo. For interpretation of CLE images, however, extensive training is required, which limits its applicability and use in clinical practice of the method. To aid diagnosis of SCC in a broader scope, automatic detection methods have been proposed. This work compares two methods with regard to their applicability in a transfer learning sense, i.e. training on one tissue type (f…
Graph matching for efficient classifiers adaptation
2011
In this work we present an adaptation algorithm focused on the description of the measurement changes under different acquisition conditions. The adaptation is carried out by transforming the manifold in the first observation conditions into the corresponding manifold in the second. The eventually non-linear transform is based on vector quantization and graph matching. The transfer learning mapping is defined in an unsupervised manner. Once this mapping has been defined, the labeled samples in the first are projected into the second domain, thus allowing the application of any classifier in the transformed domain. Experiments on VHR series of images show the validity of the proposed method …
Study and Evaluation of Pre-trained CNN Networks for Cultural Heritage Image Classification
2021
The classification of digital images is an essential task during the restoration and preservation of cultural heritage (CH). In computer vision, cultural heritage classification relies on the classification of asset images regarding a certain task such as type, artist, genre, style identification, etc. CH classification is challenging as various CH asset images have similar colors, textures, and shapes. In this chapter, the aim is to study and evaluate the use of pre-trained deep convolutional neural networks such as VGG16, VGG-19, ResNet50, and Inception-V3 for cultural heritage images classification using transfer learning techniques. The main idea is to start with CNN models previously t…
Machine learning at the interface of structural health monitoring and non-destructive evaluation
2020
While both non-destructive evaluation (NDE) and structural health monitoring (SHM) share the objective of damage detection and identification in structures, they are distinct in many respects. This paper will discuss the differences and commonalities and consider ultrasonic/guided-wave inspection as a technology at the interface of the two methodologies. It will discuss how data-based/machine learning analysis provides a powerful approach to ultrasonic NDE/SHM in terms of the available algorithms, and more generally, how different techniques can accommodate the very substantial quantities of data that are provided by modern monitoring campaigns. Several machine learning methods will be illu…
Deep Learning Techniques for Depression Assessment
2018
Depression is a typical mood disorder, which affects a significant number of individuals worldwide at an increasing rate. Objective measures for early detection of signs related to depression could be beneficial for clinicians with regards to a decision support system. In this paper, assessment of depression is done by applying three deep learning techniques of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). These techniques are transfer learning using AlexNet, fine-tuning using AlexNet and building an end to end CNN. The inputs of the CNNs are a combination of Motion History Image, Landmark Motion History Image and Gabor Motion History Image, and have been generated on a depression dataset. Accuracy o…

Cross-Sensor Adversarial Domain Adaptation of Landsat-8 and Proba-V images for Cloud Detection
2021
The number of Earth observation satellites carrying optical sensors with similar characteristics is constantly growing. Despite their similarities and the potential synergies among them, derived satellite products are often developed for each sensor independently. Differences in retrieved radiances lead to significant drops in accuracy, which hampers knowledge and information sharing across sensors. This is particularly harmful for machine learning algorithms, since gathering new ground truth data to train models for each sensor is costly and requires experienced manpower. In this work, we propose a domain adaptation transformation to reduce the statistical differences between images of two…
