Data augmentation is an efficient way to reduce overfitting on models and to improve a performance supplementing extra data for training. It is more important in deep learning based industrial machine vision. Because deep learning requires huge scale of learning data to learn a model, but acquisition of data can be limited in most of industrial applications. A very generic method for augmenting image data is to perform geometric transformations, such as cropping, rotating, translating and adjusting brightness of the image. The effectiveness of data augmentation in image classification has been reported, but it is rare in defect inspections. We explore and compare various basic augmenting operations for the metal surface defects. The experiments were executed for various types of defects and different CNN networks and analysed for performance improvements by the data augmentations.

As commercial drones have been widely used, concerns for collision accidents with people and invading secured properties are emerging. The detection of drone is a challenging problem. The deep learning based object detection techniques for detecting drones have been applied, but limited to the specific cases such as detection of drones from bird and/or background. We have tried not only detection of drones, but classification of different drones with an end-to-end model. YOLOv2 is used as an object detection model. In order to supplement insufficient data by shooting drones, data augmentation from collected images is executed. Also transfer learning from ImageNet for YOLOv2 darknet framework is performed. The experimental results for drone detection with average IoU and recall are compared and analysed.

This paper presents a multi-label lane detection method for autonomous vehicles based on deep learning. The proposed algorithm can detect two types of lanes: center lane and normal lane. The algorithm uses a convolution neural network with an encoder-decoder architecture to extract features from input images and produce a multi-label heatmap for predicting lane's label. This architecture has the potential to detect more diverse types of lanes in that it can add the number of labels by extending the heatmap's dimension. The proposed algorithm was tested on an OpenLane dataset and achieved 85 Frames Per Second (FPS) in end to-end inference time. The results demonstrate the usability and computational efficiency of the proposed algorithm for the lane detection in autonomous vehicles.

Recently, image analysis research has been actively conducted due to the accumulation of big image data and the development of deep learning. Image analytics research has different characteristics from other data such as data size, real-time, image quality diversity, structural complexity, and security issues. In addition, a large amount of data is required to effectively analyze images with deep-learning models. However, in many fields, the data that can be collected is limited, so there is a need for meta learning based image analysis technology that can effectively train models with a small amount of data. This paper presents a comprehensive survey of meta-learning-based object-tracking techniques. This approach comprehensively explores object tracking methods and research that can achieve high performance in data-limited situations, including key challenges and future directions. It provides useful information for researchers in the field and can provide insights into future research directions.

Early detection continues to be the mainstay of breast cancer control as well as the improvement of its treatment. Even so, the absence of cancer symptoms at the onset has early detection quite challenging. Therefore, various researchers continue to focus on cancer as a topic of health to try and make improvements from the perspectives of diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. This research's chief goal is development of a system with deep learning for classification of the breast cancer as non-malignant and malignant using mammogram images. The following two distinct approaches: the first one with the utilization of patches of the Region of Interest (ROI), and the second one with the utilization of the overall images is used. The proposed system is composed of the following two distinct stages: the pre-processing stage and the Convolution Neural Network (CNN) building stage. Of late, the use of meta-heuristic optimization algorithms has accomplished a lot of progress in resolving these problems. Teaching-Learning Based Optimization algorithm (TIBO) meta-heuristic was originally employed for resolving problems of continuous optimization. This work has offered the proposals of novel methods for training the Residual Network (ResNet) as well as the CNN based on the TLBO and the Genetic Algorithm (GA). The classification of breast cancer can be enhanced with direct application of the hybrid TLBO- GA. For this hybrid algorithm, the TLBO, i.e., a core component, will combine the following three distinct operators of the GA: coding, crossover, and mutation. In the TLBO, there is a representation of the optimization solutions as students. On the other hand, the hybrid TLBO-GA will have further division of the students as follows: the top students, the ordinary students, and the poor students. The experiments demonstrated that the proposed hybrid TLBO-GA is more effective than TLBO and GA.

Visual Object Tracking is known as the most fundamental problem in the field of computer vision. Object tracking localize the region of target object with bounding box in the video. In this paper, a custom CNN is created to extract object feature that has strong and various information. This network was constructed as a Siamese network for use as a feature extractor. The input images are passed convolution block composed of a bottleneck layers, and features are emphasized. The feature map of the target object and the search area, extracted from the Siamese network, was input as a local proposal network. Estimate the object area using the feature map. The performance of the tracking algorithm was evaluated using the OTB2013 dataset. Success Plot and Precision Plot were used as evaluation matrix. As a result of the experiment, 0.611 in Success Plot and 0.831 in Precision Plot were achieved.

CCTV protects people and assets safely by identifying dangerous situations and responding promptly. However, it is difficult to continuously monitor the increasing number of CCTV images. For this reason, there is a need for a device that continuously monitors CCTV images and notifies when abnormal behavior occurs. Recently, many studies using artificial intelligence models for image data analysis have been conducted. This study simultaneously learns spatial and temporal characteristic information between image data to classify various abnormal behaviors that can be observed in CCTV images. As an artificial intelligence model used for learning, we propose a multi-classification deep learning model that combines an end-to-end 3D convolutional neural network(CNN) and ResNet.

The prediction of ship resistance performance is typically obtained by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations or model tests in towing tank. However, these methods are both costly and time-consuming, so hull-form designers use statistical methods for a quick feed-back during the early design stage. It is well known that results from statistical methods are often less accurate compared to those from CFD simulations or model tests. To overcome this problem, this study suggests a new approach using a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) with voxelized hull-form data. By converting the original Computer Aided Design (CAD) data into three dimensional voxels, the CNN is able to abstract the hull-form data, focusing only on important features. For the verification, suggested method in this study was compared to a parametric method that uses hull parameters such as length overall and block coefficient as inputs. The results showed that the use of voxelized data significantly improves resistance performance prediction accuracy, compared to the parametric approach.

Usually, during slaughter, the meat is divided into large chunks by part after deboning. The meat chunks are inspected for the presence of needles with an X-ray scanner. Although needles in the meat chunks are easily detectable, they can also be found in trimmings and meat offals, where meat skins, fat chunks, and pieces of meat from different parts get agglomerated. Detection of needles in trimmings and meat offals becomes challenging because of many needle-like patterns that are detected by the X-ray scanner. This problem can be solved by learning the trimmings or meat offals using deep learning. However, it is not easy to collect a large number of learning patterns in trimmings or meat offals. In this study, we demonstrate the use of deep convolutional generative adversarial network (DCGAN) to create fake images of trimmings or meat offals and train them using a convolution neural network (CNN).

This paper proposes the design of a neural network structure search model using graph convolutional neural networks. Deep learning has a problem of not being able to verify whether the designed model has a structure with optimized performance due to the nature of learning as a black box. The neural network structure search model is composed of a recurrent neural network that creates a model and a convolutional neural network that is the generated network. Conventional neural network structure search models use recurrent neural networks, but in this paper, we propose GC-NAS, which uses graph convolutional neural networks instead of recurrent neural networks to create convolutional neural network models. The proposed GC-NAS uses the Layer Extraction Block to explore depth, and the Hyper Parameter Prediction Block to explore spatial and temporal information (hyper parameters) based on depth information in parallel. Therefore, since the depth information is reflected, the search area is wider, and the purpose of the search area of the model is clear by conducting a parallel search with depth information, so it is judged to be superior in theoretical structure compared to GC-NAS. GC-NAS is expected to solve the problem of the high-dimensional time axis and the range of spatial search of recurrent neural networks in the existing neural network structure search model through the graph convolutional neural network block and graph generation algorithm. In addition, we hope that the GC-NAS proposed in this paper will serve as an opportunity for active research on the application of graph convolutional neural networks to neural network structure search.
