On the Robustness of Deep Features for Audio Event Classification in Adverse Environments
2018
Deep features, responses to complex input patterns learned within deep neural networks, have recently shown great performance in image recognition tasks, motivating their use for audio analysis tasks as well. These features provide multiple levels of abstraction which permit to select a sufficiently generalized layer to identify classes not seen during training. The generalization capability of such features is very useful due to the lack of complete labeled audio datasets. However, as opposed to classical hand-crafted features such as Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), the performance impact of having an acoustically adverse environment has not been evaluated in detail. In this p…
Toward Self-Supervised Feature Learning for Online Diagnosis of Multiple Faults in Electric Powertrains
2021
This article proposes a novel online fault diagnosis scheme for industrial powertrains without using historical faulty or labeled training data. The proposed method combines a one-class support vector machine (SVM) based anomaly detection and supervised convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithms to online detect multiple faults and fault severities under variable speeds and loads. The one-class SVM algorithm is to derive a score for defining faults or health classes in the first stage, and the resulting health classes are used as the training data for the CNN-based classifier in the second stage. Within this framework, the self-supervised learning of the proposed CNN algorithm allows the…
Gravitational-wave parameter inference using Deep Learning
2021
We explore machine learning methods to detect gravitational waves (GW) from binary black hole (BBH) mergers using deep learning (DL) algorithms. The DL networks are trained with gravitational waveforms obtained from BBH mergers with component masses randomly sampled in the range from 5 to 100 solar masses and luminosity distances from 100 Mpc to, at least, 2000 Mpc. The GW signal waveforms are injected in public data from the O2 run of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors, in time windows that do not coincide with those of known detected signals, and the data from each detector in the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo network is combined into a unique RGB image. We show that a clas…
Automatic Segmentation Using a Hybrid Dense Network Integrated With an 3D-Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling Module for Computed Tomography (CT) Imaging
2020
Computed tomography (CT) with a contrast-enhanced imaging technique is extensively proposed for the assessment and segmentation of multiple organs, especially organs at risk. It is an important factor involved in the decision making in clinical applications. Automatic segmentation and extraction of abdominal organs, such as thoracic organs at risk, from CT images are challenging tasks due to the low contrast of pixel values surrounding other organs. Various deep learning models based on 2D and 3D convolutional neural networks have been proposed for the segmentation of medical images because of their automatic feature extraction capability based on large labeled datasets. In this paper, we p…
Improving Irony and Stereotype Spreaders Detection using Data Augmentation and Convolutional Neural Network
2022
In this paper we describe a deep learning model based on a Data Augmentation (DA) layer followed by a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The proposed model was developed by our team for the Profiling Irony and Stereotype Spreaders (ISSs) task proposed by the PAN 2022 organizers. As a first step, to classify an author as ISS or not (nISS), we developed a DA layer that expands each sample in the dataset provided. Using this augmented dataset we trained the CNN. Then, to submit our predictions, we apply our DA layer on the samples within the unlabeled test set too. Finally we fed our trained CNN with the augmented test set to generate our final predictions. To develop and test our model we us…
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…
Fake News Spreaders Detection: Sometimes Attention Is Not All You Need
2022
Guided by a corpus linguistics approach, in this article we present a comparative evaluation of State-of-the-Art (SotA) models, with a special focus on Transformers, to address the task of Fake News Spreaders (i.e., users that share Fake News) detection. First, we explore the reference multilingual dataset for the considered task, exploiting corpus linguistics techniques, such as chi-square test, keywords and Word Sketch. Second, we perform experiments on several models for Natural Language Processing. Third, we perform a comparative evaluation using the most recent Transformer-based models (RoBERTa, DistilBERT, BERT, XLNet, ELECTRA, Longformer) and other deep and non-deep SotA models (CNN,…
Emergency Detection with Environment Sound Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
2020
In this paper, we propose a generic emergency detection system using only the sound produced in the environment. For this task, we employ multiple audio feature extraction techniques like the mel-frequency cepstral coefficients, gammatone frequency cepstral coefficients, constant Q-transform and chromagram. After feature extraction, a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) is used to classify an audio signal as a potential emergency situation or not. The entire model is based on our previous work that sets the new state of the art in the environment sound classification (ESC) task (Our paper is under review in the IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio, Speech and Language Processing and also avai…
Online Fault Diagnosis System for Electric Powertrains Using Advanced Signal Processing and Machine Learning
2018
Online condition monitoring and fault diagnosis systems are necessary to prevent unexpected downtimes in critical electric powertrains. The machine learning algorithms provide a better way to diagnose faults in complex cases, such as mixed faults and/or in variable speed conditions. Most of studies focus on training phases of the machine learning algorithms, but the development of the trained machine learning algorithms for an online diagnosis system is not detailed. In this study, a complete procedure of training and implementation of an online fault diagnosis system is presented and discussed. Aspects of the development of an online fault diagnosis based on machine learning algorithms are…
Deep learning algorithms for gravitational waves core-collapse supernova detection
2021
The detection of gravitational waves from core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosions is a challenging task, yet to be achieved, in which it is key the connection between multiple messengers, including neutrinos and electromagnetic signals. In this work, we present a method for detecting these kind of signals based on machine learning techniques. We tested its robustness by injecting signals in the real noise data taken by the Advanced LIGO-Virgo network during the second observation run, O2. We trained three newly developed convolutional neural networks using time-frequency images corresponding to injections of simulated phenomenological signals, which mimic the waveforms obtained in 3D nume…
