For constructing three-dimensional (3D) spatial information occlusion region problem arises in the process of taking the texture of the building. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to investigate the automation method to automatically recognize the occlusion region, issue it, and automatically complement the texture. In fact there are occasions when it is possible to generate a very large number of structures and occlusion, so alternatives to overcome are being considered. In this study, we attempt to apply an approach to automatically create an occlusion region based on learning by patterning the blocked region using the recently emerging deep learning algorithm. Experiment to see the performance automatic detection of people, banners, vehicles, and traffic lights that cause occlusion in building walls using two advanced algorithms of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) technique, Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (R-CNN) and Mask R-CNN. And the results of the automatic detection by learning the banners in the pre-learned model of the Mask R-CNN method were found to be excellent.

The classification problem in the field of Natural Language Processing has been studied for a long time. Continuing forward with our previous research, which classifies large-scale text using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), we implemented Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Units (GRU). The experiment's result revealed that the performance of classification algorithms was Multinomial Naïve Bayesian Classifier < Support Vector Machine (SVM) < LSTM < CNN < GRU, in order. The result can be interpreted as follows: First, the result of CNN was better than LSTM. Therefore, the text classification problem might be related more to feature extraction problem than to natural language understanding problems. Second, judging from the results the GRU showed better performance in feature extraction than LSTM. Finally, the result that the GRU was better than CNN implies that text classification algorithms should consider feature extraction and sequential information. We presented the results of fine-tuning in deep neural networks to provide some intuition regard natural language processing to future researchers.

In this paper, we propose a filtering method that can improve the results of inverse tone-mapping using guided image filter. Inverse tone-mapping techniques have been proposed that convert LDR images to HDR. Recently, many algorithms have been studied to convert single LDR images into HDR images using CNN. Among them, there exists an algorithm for restoring pixel information using CNN which learned to restore saturated region. The algorithm does not suppress the noise in the non-saturation region and cannot restore the detail in the saturated region. The proposed algorithm suppresses the noise in the non-saturated region and restores the detail of the saturated region using a WGIF in the input image, and then applies it to the CNN to improve the quality of the final image. The proposed algorithm shows a higher quantitative image quality index than the existing algorithms when the HDR quantitative image quality index was measured.

We propose an efficient single convolutional neural network (CNN) for pedestrian detection on embedded GPUs. We first determine the optimal number of the convolutional layers and hyper-parameters for a lightweight CNN. Then, we employ a multi-scale approach to make the network robust to the sizes of the pedestrians in images. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is capable of real-time operation, while providing higher detection performance than conventional algorithms.

Core algorithm of deep learning Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) shows better performance than other machine learning algorithms. However, if there is not sufficient data, CNN can not achieve satisfactory performance even if the classifier is excellent. In this situation, it has been proven that the use of transfer learning can have a great effect. In this paper, we apply two transition learning methods(freezing, retraining) to three CNN models(ResNet-50, Inception-V3, DenseNet-121) and compare and analyze how the classification performance of CNN changes according to the methods. As a result of statistical significance test using various evaluation indicators, ResNet-50, Inception-V3, and DenseNet-121 differed by 1.18 times, 1.09 times, and 1.17 times, respectively. Based on this, we concluded that the retraining method may be more effective than the freezing method in case of transition learning in image classification problem.

Cracks in railway sleeper are an inevitable condition and has a significant influence on the safety of railway system. Although the technology of railway sleeper condition monitoring using machine learning (ML) models has been widely applied, the crack recognition accuracy is still in need of improvement. In this paper, a two-stage method using edge detection and convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed to reduce the burden of computing for detecting cracks in railway sleepers with high accuracy. In the first stage, the edge detection is carried out by using the 3×3 neighborhood range algorithm to find out the possible crack areas, and a series of mathematical morphology operations are further used to eliminate the influence of noise targets to the edge detection results. In the second stage, a CNN model is employed to classify the results of edge detection. Through the analysis of abundant images of sleepers with cracks, it is proved that the cracks detected by the neighborhood range algorithm are superior to those detected by Sobel and Canny algorithms, which can be classified by proposed CNN model with high accuracy.

We propose a single-shot high dynamic range (HDR) imaging algorithm using a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for row-wise varying exposures in a single image. The proposed algorithm restores missing information resulting from under- and/or over-exposed pixels in an input image and reconstructs the raw radiance map. The main contribution of this work is the development of a loss function for the CNN employing the human visual system (HVS) properties. Then, the HDR image is obtained by applying a demosaicing algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides higher-quality HDR images than conventional algorithms.

In this paper, a method to classify objects in outdoor CCTV images using Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) and background subtraction is proposed. Object candidates are extracted using background subtraction and they are classified with CNN to detect objects in the image. At the end, computation complexity is highly reduced in comparison to other object detection algorithms. A database is constructed by filming alleys and playgrounds, places where crime occurs mainly. In experiments, different image sizes and experimental settings are tested to construct a best classifier detecting person. And the final classification accuracy became 80% for same camera data and 67.5% for a different camera.

In this paper, we propose a CNN-based swimmer detection algorithm. Every year, water safety accidents have been occurred frequently, and accordingly, intelligent video surveillance systems are being developed to prevent accidents. Intelligent video surveillance system is a real-time system that detects objects which users want to do. It classifies or detects objects in real-time using algorithms such as GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model), HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients), and SVM (Support Vector Machine). However, HOG has a problem that it cannot accurately detect the swimmer in a complex and dynamic environment such as a beach. In other words, there are many false positives that detect swimmers as waves and false negatives that detect waves as swimmers. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose a swimmer detection algorithm using CNN (Convolutional Neural Network), specialized for small object sizes, in order to detect dynamic objects and swimmers more accurately and efficiently in complex environment. The proposed CNN sets the size of the input image and the size of the filter used in the convolution operation according to the size of objects. In addition, the aspect ratio of the input is adjusted according to the ratio of detected objects. As a result, experimental results show that the proposed CNN-based swimmer detection method performs better than conventional techniques.

This study investigates the possibility of coupling empirical mode decomposition (EMD) for runoff prediction from machine learning (ML) models. Here, support vector regression (SVR) and convolutional neural network (CNN) were considered for ML algorithms. Precipitation (P), minimum temperature (Tmin), maximum temperature (Tmax) and their intrinsic mode functions (IMF) values were used for input variables at a monthly scale from Jan. 1973 to Dec. 2020 in the Grand river basin, Canada. The support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) technique was applied for finding the best combination of predictors among input variables. The results show that the proposed method outperformed the individual performance of SVR and CNN during the training and testing periods in the study area. According to the correlation coefficient (R), the EMD-SVR model outperformed the EMD-CNN model in both training and testing even though the CNN indicated a better performance than the SVR before using IMF values. The EMD-SVR model showed higher improvement in R value (38.7%) than that from the EMD-CNN model (7.1%). It should be noted that the coupled models of EMD-SVR and EMD-CNN represented much higher accuracy in runoff prediction with respect to the considered evaluation indicators, including root mean square error (RMSE) and R values.
