There is a growing interest in facial age estimation because many applications require age estimation techniques from facial images. In order to estimate the exact age of a face, a technique for extracting aging features from a face image and classifying the age according to the extracted features is required. Recently, the performance of various CNN-based deep learning models has been greatly improved in the image recognition field, and various CNN-based deep learning models are being used to improve performance in the field of facial age estimation. In this paper, age estimation performance was compared by learning facial features based on various CNN-based models such as AlexNet, VGG-16, VGG-19, ResNet-18, ResNet-34, ResNet-50, ResNet-101, ResNet-152. As a result of experiment, it was confirmed that the performance of the facial age estimation models using ResNet-34 was the best.

This paper proposes an image classification algorithm that transforms the number of convolution layers in the residual block of ResNet, CNN's representative method. The proposed method modified the structure of 34/50 layer of ResNet structure. First, we analyzed the performance of small and many convolution layers for the structure consisting of only shortcut and 3 × 3 convolution layers for 34 and 50 layers. And then the performance was analyzed in the case of small and many cases of convolutional layers for the bottleneck structure of 50 layers. By applying the results, the best classification method in the residual block was applied to construct a 34-layer simple structure and a 50-layer bottleneck image classification model. To evaluate the performance of the proposed image classification model, the results were analyzed by applying to the cifar10 dataset. The proposed 34-layer simple structure and 50-layer bottleneck showed improved performance over the ResNet-110 and Densnet-40 models.

A smart business card printing system that automatically prints business cards requested by customers online is being activated. What matters is that the business card submitted by the customer to the system may be abnormal. This paper deals with the problem of determining whether the image of a business card has been abnormally rotated by adopting artificial intelligence technology. It is assumed that the business card rotates 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees. Experiments were conducted by applying existing VGG, ResNet, and DenseNet artificial neural networks without designing special artificial neural networks, and they were able to distinguish image rotation with an accuracy of about 97%. DenseNet161 showed 97.9% accuracy and ResNet34 also showed 97.2% precision. This illustrates that if the problem is simple, it can produce sufficiently good results even if the neural network is not a complex one.

Digitalization due to COVID-19 has rapidly developed artificial intelligence-based voice recognition technology. However, this technology causes unfair social problems, such as race and gender discrimination if datasets are biased against some groups, and degrades the reliability and security of artificial intelligence services. In this work, we compare and analyze accuracy-based unfairness in biased data environments using VGGNet (Visual Geometry Group Network), ResNet (Residual Neural Network), and MobileNet, which are representative CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) models of artificial intelligence. Experimental results show that ResNet34 showed the highest accuracy for women and men at 91% and 89.9%in Top1-accuracy, while ResNet18 showed the slightest accuracy difference between genders at 1.8%. The difference in accuracy between genders by model causes differences in service quality and unfair results between men and women when using the service.

User interface for cancer classification system is a software application with clinician's friendly tools and functions to diagnose cancer from pathology images. Pathology evolved from manual diagnosis to computer-aided diagnosis with the help of Artificial Intelligence tools and algorithms. In this paper, we explained each block of the project life cycle for the implementation of automated breast cancer classification software using AI and machine learning algorithms to classify normal and invasive breast histology images. The system was designed to help the pathologists in an automatic and efficient diagnosis of breast cancer. To design the classification model, Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained breast histology images were obtained from the ICIAR Breast Cancer challenge. These images are stain normalized to minimize the error that can occur during model training due to pathological stains. The normalized dataset was fed into the ResNet-34 for the classification of normal and invasive breast cancer images. ResNet-34 gave 94% accuracy, 93% F Score, 95% of model Recall, and 91% precision.

The presence of abnormalities in the subgrade of roads poses safety risks to users and results in significant maintenance costs. In this study, we aimed to experimentally evaluate the temperature distributions in abnormal areas of subgrade materials using infrared cameras and analyze the data with machine learning techniques. The experimental site was configured as a cubic shape measuring 50 cm in width, length, and depth, with abnormal areas designated for water and air. Concrete blocks covered the upper part of the site to simulate the pavement layer. Temperature distribution was monitored over 23 h, from 4 PM to 3 PM the following day, resulting in image data and numerical temperature values extracted from the middle of the abnormal area. The temperature difference between the maximum and minimum values measured 34.8℃ for water, 34.2℃ for air, and 28.6℃ for the original subgrade. To classify conditions in the measured images, we employed the image analysis method of a convolutional neural network (CNN), utilizing ResNet-101 and SqueezeNet networks. The classification accuracies of ResNet-101 for water, air, and the original subgrade were 70%, 50%, and 80%, respectively. SqueezeNet achieved classification accuracies of 60% for water, 30% for air, and 70% for the original subgrade. This study highlights the effectiveness of CNN algorithms in analyzing subgrade properties and predicting subsurface conditions.

In this paper, we empirically compare the effectiveness of training models to recognize beauty-related skin disease using supervised deep learning algorithms. Recently, deep learning algorithms are being actively applied for various fields such as industry, education, and medical. For instance, in the medical field, the ability to diagnose cutaneous cancer using deep learning based artificial intelligence has improved to the experts level. However, there are still insufficient cases applied to disease related to skin beauty. This study experimentally compares the effectiveness of identifying beauty-related skin disease by applying deep learning algorithms, considering CNN, ResNet, and SE-ResNet. The experimental results using these training models show that the accuracy of CNN is 71.5% on average, ResNet is 90.6% on average, and SE-ResNet is 95.3% on average. In particular, the SE-ResNet-50 model, which is a SE-ResNet algorithm with 50 hierarchical structures, showed the most effective result for identifying beauty-related skin diseases with an average accuracy of 96.2%. The purpose of this paper is to study effective training and methods of deep learning algorithms in consideration of the identification for beauty-related skin disease. Thus, it will be able to contribute to the development of services used to treat and easy the skin disease.

In recent years, as the range of human activities has increased, the introduction of alien species has become frequent. Among them, raccoons have been designated as harmful animals since 2020. Raccoons are similar in size and shape to raccoon dogs, so they generally need to be distinguished in capturing them. To solve this problem, we use VGG19, ResNet152V2, InceptionV3, InceptionResNet and NASNet, which are CNN deep learning models specialized for image classification. The parameters to be used for learning are pre-trained with a large amount of data, ImageNet. In order to classify the raccoon and raccoon dog datasets as outward features of animals, the image was converted to grayscale and brightness was normalized. Augmentation methods were applied using left and right inversion, rotation, scaling, and shift to create sufficient data for transfer learning. The FCL consists of 1 layer for the non-augmented dataset while 4 layers for the augmented dataset. Comparing the accuracy of various augmented datasets, the performance increased as more augmentation methods were applied.

Grouping and classifying similar designs in design increase efficiency in terms of management and provide convenience in terms of use. Using artificial intelligence algorithms, this study attempted to classify textile designs into four categories: dots, flower patterns, stripes, and geometry. In particular, we explored whether it is possible to find and explain the regions of interest underlying classification from the perspective of artificial intelligence. We randomly extracted a total of 4,536 designs at a ratio of 8:2, comprising 3,629 for training and 907 for testing. The models used in the classification were VGG-16 and ResNet-34, both of which showed excellent classification performance with precision on flower pattern designs of 0.79%, 0.89% and recall of 0.95% and 0.38%. Analysis using the Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanation (LIME) technique has shown that geometry and flower-patterned designs derived shapes and petals from the region of interest on which classification was based.
