Computer Simulation for the Study of CNC Feed Drives Dynamic Behavior and Accuracy
2007
In the application of CNC feed drives it is desirable to predict the servo performance. By using computer simulation techniques it is possible to construct an accurate model of the servo drive. This simulation procedure makes it possible to anticipate machine design problems and correct them. This paper deals with a model of a feed drive, which consists of a motion control system driven by a DC motor. Both position and velocity feedback loops are present in the structure of the system. By means of MATLAB & Simulink software, simulation diagrams were built in order to test the behaviour of the system. Experimental data are also presented in order to confirm the accuracy of the theoretical mo…
Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory Network for Multitemporal Cloud Detection Over Landmarks
2019
In this work, we propose to exploit both the temporal and spatial correlations in Earth observation satellite images through deep learning methods. In particular, the combination of a U-Net convolutional neural network together with a convolutional long short-term memory (LSTM) layer is proposed. This model is applied for cloud detection on MSG/SEVIRI image time series over selected landmarks. Implementation details are provided and our proposal is compared against a standard SVM and a U-Net without the convolutional LSTM layer but including temporal information too. Experimental results show that this combination of networks exploits both the spatial and temporal dependence and provides st…
Combination Of Handcrafted And Deep Learning-Based Features For 3d Mesh Quality Assessment
2020
We propose in this paper a novel objective method to evaluate the perceived visual quality of 3D meshes. The proposed method in no-reference, it relies only on the distorted mesh for the quality estimation. It is based on a pre-trained convolutional neural network (i.e VGG to extract features from the distorted mesh) and handcrafted features extracted directly from the 3D mesh (i.e curvature and dihedral angle). A General Regression Neural Network (GRNN) is used to learn the statistical parameters of the feature vectors and estimate the quality score. Experimental results from for subjective databases (LIRIS masking, LIRIS/EPFL generalpurpose, UWB compression and LEETA simplification) and c…
No-reference mesh visual quality assessment via ensemble of convolutional neural networks and compact multi-linear pooling
2020
Abstract Blind or No reference quality evaluation is a challenging issue since it is done without access to the original content. In this work, we propose a method based on deep learning for the mesh visual quality assessment without reference. For a given 3D model, we first compute its mesh saliency. Then, we extract views from the 3D mesh and the corresponding mesh saliency. After that, the views are split into small patches that are filtered using a saliency threshold. Only the salient patches are selected and used as input data. After that, three pre-trained deep convolutional neural networks are employed for feature learning: VGG, AlexNet, and ResNet. Each network is fine-tuned and pro…
Distance-based relevance feedback using a hybrid interactive genetic algorithm for image retrieval
2011
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems aim to provide a means to find pictures in large repositories without using any other information except the own content of the images, which is usually represented as a feature vector extracted from low-level descriptors. This paper describes a CBIR algorithm which combines relevance feedback, evolutionary computation concepts and distance-based learning in an attempt to reduce the existing gap between the high level semantic content of the images and the information provided by their low-level descriptors. In particular, a framework which is independent from the particular features used is presented. The effect of different crossover strategies…
Local dimensionality reduction within natural clusters for medical data analysis
2005
Inductive learning systems have been successfully applied in a number of medical domains. Nevertheless, the effective use of these systems requires data preprocessing before applying a learning algorithm. Especially it is important for multidimensional heterogeneous data, presented by a large number of features of different types. Dimensionality reduction is one commonly applied approach. The goal of this paper is to study the impact of natural clustering on dimensionality reduction for classification. We compare several data mining strategies that apply dimensionality reduction by means of feature extraction or feature selection for subsequent classification. We show experimentally on micr…
A one class classifier for Signal identification: a biological case study
2008
The paper describes an application of a one-class KNN to identify different signal patterns embedded in a noise structured background. The problem become harder whenever only one pattern is well represented in the signal, in such cases one class classifier techniques are more indicated. The classification phase is applied after a preprocessing phase based on a Multi Layer Model (MLM) that provides a preliminary signal segmentation in an interval feature space. The one-class KNN has been tested on synthetic data that simulate microarray data for the identification of nucleosomes and linker regions across DNA. Results have shown a good recognition rate on synthetic data for nucleosome and lin…
Extracting information from support vector machines for pattern-based classification
2014
Statistical machine learning algorithms building on patterns found by pattern mining algorithms have to cope with large solution sets and thus the high dimensionality of the feature space. Vice versa, pattern mining algorithms are frequently applied to irrelevant instances, thus causing noise in the output. Solution sets of pattern mining algorithms also typically grow with increasing input datasets. The paper proposes an approach to overcome these limitations. The approach extracts information from trained support vector machines, in particular their support vectors and their relevance according to their coefficients. It uses the support vectors along with their coefficients as input to pa…
Improving distance based image retrieval using non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm
2015
Image retrieval is formulated as a multiobjective optimization problem.A multiobjective genetic algorithm is hybridized with distance based search.A parameter balances exploration (genetic search) or exploitation (nearest neighbors).Extensive comparative experimentation illustrate and assess the proposed methodology. Relevance feedback has been adopted as a standard in Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). One major difficulty that algorithms have to face is to achieve and adequate balance between the exploitation of already known areas of interest and the exploration of the feature space to find other relevant areas. In this paper, we evaluate different ways to combine two existing relevan…
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…
