DeepEva: A deep neural network architecture for assessing sentence complexity in Italian and English languages
2021
Abstract Automatic Text Complexity Evaluation (ATE) is a research field that aims at creating new methodologies to make autonomous the process of the text complexity evaluation, that is the study of the text-linguistic features (e.g., lexical, syntactical, morphological) to measure the grade of comprehensibility of a text. ATE can affect positively several different contexts such as Finance, Health, and Education. Moreover, it can support the research on Automatic Text Simplification (ATS), a research area that deals with the study of new methods for transforming a text by changing its lexicon and structure to meet specific reader needs. In this paper, we illustrate an ATE approach named De…
Exploiting deep learning algorithms and satellite image time series for deforestation prediction
2022
In recent years, we have witnessed the emergence of Deep Learning (DL) methods, which have led to enormous progress in various fields such as automotive driving, computer vision, medicine, finances, and remote sensing data analysis. The success of these machine learning methods is due to the ever-increasing availability of large amounts of information and the computational power of computers. In the field of remote sensing, we now have considerable volumes of satellite images thanks to the large number of Earth Observation (EO) satellites orbiting the planet. With the revisit time of satellites over an area becoming shorter and shorter, it will probably soon be possible to obtain daily imag…
Adaptive Continuous Feature Binarization for Tsetlin Machines Applied to Forecasting Dengue Incidences in the Philippines
2020
The Tsetlin Machine (TM) is a recent interpretable machine learning algorithm that requires relatively modest computational power, yet attains competitive accuracy in several benchmarks. TMs are inherently binary; however, many machine learning problems are continuous. While binarization of continuous data through brute-force thresholding has yielded promising accuracy, such an approach is computationally expensive and hinders extrapolation. In this paper, we address these limitations by standardizing features to support scale shifts in the transition from training data to real-world operation, typical for e.g. forecasting. For scalability, we employ sampling to reduce the number of binariz…
Automatic Myocardial Infarction Evaluation from Delayed-Enhancement Cardiac MRI Using Deep Convolutional Networks
2021
In this paper, we propose a new deep learning framework for an automatic myocardial infarction evaluation from clinical information and delayed enhancement-MRI (DE-MRI). The proposed framework addresses two tasks. The first task is automatic detection of myocardial contours, the infarcted area, the no-reflow area, and the left ventricular cavity from a short-axis DE-MRI series. It employs two segmentation neural networks. The first network is used to segment the anatomical structures such as the myocardium and left ventricular cavity. The second network is used to segment the pathological areas such as myocardial infarction, myocardial no-reflow, and normal myocardial region. The segmented …
Deep learning strategies for automatic fault diagnosis in photovoltaic systems by thermographic images
2021
Abstract Losses of electricity production in photovoltaic systems are mainly caused by the presence of faults that affect the efficiency of the systems. The identification of any overheating in a photovoltaic module, through the thermographic non-destructive test, may be essential to maintain the correct functioning of the photovoltaic system quickly and cost-effectively, without interrupting its normal operation. This work proposes a system for the automatic classification of thermographic images using a convolutional neural network, developed via open-source libraries. To reduce image noise, various pre-processing strategies were evaluated, including normalization and homogenization of pi…
The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Disaster Management - A Systematic Literature Review
2019
Whenever a disaster occurs, users in social media, sensors, cameras, satellites, and the like generate vast amounts of data. Emergency responders and victims use this data for situational awareness, decision-making, and safe evacuations. However, making sense of the generated information under time-bound situations is a challenging task as the amount of data can be significant, and there is a need for intelligent systems to analyze, process, and visualize it. With recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), numerous researchers have begun exploring AI, machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) techniques for big data analytics in managing disasters efficiently. This paper adopt…
Combining Auto-Encoder with LSTM for WiFi-Based Fingerprint Positioning
2021
Although indoor positioning has long been investigated by various means, its accuracy remains concern. Several recent studies have applied machine learning algorithms to explore wireless fidelity (WiFi)-based positioning. In this paper, we propose a novel deep learning model which concatenates an auto-encoder with a long short term memory (LSTM) network for the purpose of WiFi fingerprint positioning. We first employ an auto-encoder to extract representative latent codes of fingerprints. Such an extraction is proven to be more reliable than simply using a deep neural network to extract representative features since a latent code can be reverted back to its original input. Then, a sequence o…
ConvLSTM Neural Networks for seismic event prediction in Chile
2021
Predicting seismic risk is a challenging task in order to avoid catastrophic effects. In this work, two models based on Convolutional Network (CNN) and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks are proposed to predict the seismic risk in Chile. In particular, a ConvLSTM and a Multi-column ConvLSTM network are used for the prediction of the average number of seismic events greater than 2,8 magnitude on the Richter scale, in the Chilean regions of Coquimbo and Araucania between the years 2010 and 2017. For this model, the values of the intensity function estimated through an ETAS model and the accumulated displacement prior to a the seismic events are used as inputs. In particular, given the spa…
An Encrypted Traffic Classification Framework Based on Convolutional Neural Networks and Stacked Autoencoders
2020
In recent years, deep learning-based encrypted traffic classification has proven to be effective; especially, using neural networks to extract features from raw traffic to classify encrypted traffic. However, most of the neural networks need a fixed-sized input, so that the raw traffic need to be trimmed. This will cause the loss of some information; for example, we do not know the number of packets in a session. To solve these problems, a framework, which implements both a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a stacked autoencoder (SAE), is proposed in this paper. This framework uses a CNN to extract high-level features from raw network traffic and uses an SAE to encode the 26 statistica…

2020
The classification of HEp-2 images, conducted through Indirect ImmunoFluorescence (IIF) gold standard method, in the positive / negative classes, is the first step in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. Since the test is often difficult to interpret, the research world has been looking for technological features for this problem. In recent years the methods of deep learning have overcome the other machine learning techniques in their effectiveness and robustness, and now they prevail in artificial intelligence studies. In this context, CNNs have played a significant role especially in the biomedical field. In this work we analysed the capabilities of CNN for fluorescence classification of…
