  • Neural Architecture Search (NAS) is cutting-edge technology in the machine learning community. NAS Without Training (NASWOT) recently has been proposed to tackle the high demand of computational resources in NAS by leveraging some indicators to predict the performance of architectures before training. The advantage of these indicators is that they do not require any training. Thus, NASWOT reduces the searching time and computational cost significantly. However, NASWOT only considers high-performing networks which does not guarantee a fast inference speed on hardware devices. In this paper, we propose a multi objectives reward function, which considers the network's latency and the predicted performance, and incorporate it into the Reinforcement Learning approach to search for the best networks with low latency. Unlike other methods, which use FLOPs to measure the latency that does not reflect the actual latency, we obtain the network's latency from the hardware NAS bench. We conduct extensive experiments on NAS-Bench-201 using CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and ImageNet-16-120 datasets, and show that the proposed method is capable of generating the best network under latency constrained without training subnetworks.

  • The number of smart farms has increased to save labor in agricultural production as the subsidy become available from central and local governments. The number of illegal greenhouses has also increased, which causes serious issues for the local governments. In the present study, we developed Mask-RCNN model to detect greenhouses based on satellite images. Greenhouses in the satellite images were labeled for training and validation of the model. The Mask-RC NN model had the average precision (AP) of 75.6%. The average precision values for 50% and 75% of overlapping area were 91.1% and 81.8%, respectively. This results indicated that the Mask-RC NN model would be useful to detect the greenhouses recently built without proper permission using a periodical screening procedure based on satellite images. Furthermore, the model can be connected with GIS to establish unified management system for greenhouses. It can also be applied to the statistical analysis of the number and total area of greenhouses.
