손바닥은 손금, 정맥 등 고유한 특징 정보를 포함하고 있는 신체 부위로 이를 이용한 다양한 사용자 인식 방법이 지속적으로 연구되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 손금과 손바닥 정맥을 함께 이용한 사용자 인식 방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 손바닥 영역에서 손금과 정맥이 가장 많이 포함되어 있는 관심 영역을 검출하고, 에지 방향성 및 밝기 통계정보를 이용하여 정맥 영상 화질 개선을 수행한다. 이후 다중 스펙트럼 환경에서 획득된 복수의 영상을 각각 독립된 심층 신경망의 입력으로 이용하여 손금과 정맥 패턴을 효과적으로 학습한다. 다양한 상황에서의 실험을 통해 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법이 기존 사용자 인식 방법 대비 개선된 결과를 보임을 확인하고 그 결과를 분석한다.

Adversarial attacks on artificial intelligence (AI) systems use adversarial examples to achieve the attack objective. Adversarial examples consist of slightly changed test data, causing AI systems to make false decisions on these examples. When used as a tool for attacking AI systems, this can lead to disastrous results. In this paper, we propose an ensemble of degraded convolutional neural network (CNN) modules, which is more robust to adversarial attacks than conventional CNNs. Each module is trained on degraded images. During testing, images are degraded using various degradation methods, and a final decision is made utilizing a one-hot encoding vector that is obtained by summing up all the output vectors of the modules. Experimental results show that the proposed ensemble network is more resilient to adversarial attacks than conventional networks, while the accuracies for normal images are similar.

본 논문에서는 멀티 센서가 장착된 스마트 인솔로 측정한 보행 데이터에 대해 앙상블 딥러닝 네트워크를 이용하여 보행의 타입을 분류하는 시스템을 제안한다. 보행 타입 분류 시스템은 인솔에 의해 측정된 데이터를 정규화하는 부분과 딥러닝 네트워크를 이용하여 보행의 특징을 추출하는 부분, 그리고 추출된 특징을 입력으로 보행의 타입을 분류하는 부분으로 구성되어 있다. 서로 다른 특성을 가지는 CNN과 LSTM을 기반으로 하는 네트워크를 독립적으로 학습하여 두 종류의 보행 특징 맵을 추출하였으며, 각각의 분류 결과를 결합하여 최종적인 앙상블 네트워크의 분류 결과를 도출하였다. 20~30대 성인의 걷기, 뛰기, 빠르게 걷기, 계단 오르기와 내려가기, 언덕 오르기와 내려가기의 7종류의 보행에 대해, 스마트 인솔을 이용하여 실측한 멀티 센서 데이터를 제안한 앙상블 네트워크로 분류해 본 결과 90% 이상의 높은 분류율을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

Convolutional Neural networks (CNNs) are a category of deep learning networks that have proven very effective in computer vision tasks such as image classification. Notwithstanding, not much has been seen in its use for remote sensing image classification in developing countries. This is majorly due to the scarcity of training data. Recently, transfer learning technique has successfully been used to develop state-of-the art models for remote sensing (RS) image classification tasks using training and testing data from well-known RS data repositories. However, the ability of such model to classify RS test data from a different dataset has not been sufficiently investigated. In this paper, we propose a deep CNN model that can classify RS test data from a dataset different from the training dataset. To achieve our objective, we first, re-trained a ResNet-50 model using EuroSAT, a large-scale RS dataset to develop a base model then we integrated Augmentation and Ensemble learning to improve its generalization ability. We further experimented on the ability of this model to classify a novel dataset (Nig_Images). The final classification results shows that our model achieves a 96% and 80% accuracy on EuroSAT and Nig_Images test data respectively. Adequate knowledge and usage of this framework is expected to encourage research and the usage of deep CNNs for land cover mapping in cases of lack of training data as obtainable in developing countries.

본 논문에서는 기존의 스마트폰 카메라 센서를 사용하여 비접촉식 손바닥 기반 사용자 식별 시스템을 구축하기 위해 Attention U-Net 모델과 사전 훈련된 컨볼루션 신경망(CNN)이 있는 다채널 손바닥 이미지를 이용한 앙상블 모델을 제안한다. Attention U-Net 모델은 손바닥(손가락 포함), 손바닥(손바닥 미포함) 및 손금을 포함한 관심 영역을 추출하는 데 사용되며, 이는 앙상블 분류기로 입력되는 멀티채널 이미지를 생성하기 위해 결합 된다. 생성된 데이터는 제안된 손바닥 정보 기반 사용자 식별 시스템에 입력되며 사전 훈련된 CNN 모델 3개를 앙상블 한 분류기를 사용하여 클래스를 예측한다. 제안된 모델은 각각 98.60%, 98.61%, 98.61%, 98.61%의 분류 정확도, 정밀도, 재현율, F1-Score를 달성할 수 있음을 입증하며, 이는 저렴한 이미지 센서를 사용하고 있음에도 불구하고 제안된 모델이 효과적이라는 것을 나타낸다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 모델은 COVID-19 펜데믹 상황에서 기존 시스템에 비하여 높은 안전성과 신뢰성으로 대안이 될 수 있다.

Objective: To develop algorithms using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for automatic segmentation of acute ischemic lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and compare them with conventional algorithms, including a thresholding-based segmentation. Materials and Methods: Between September 2005 and August 2015, 429 patients presenting with acute cerebral ischemia (training:validation:test set = 246:89:94) were retrospectively enrolled in this study, which was performed under Institutional Review Board approval. Ground truth segmentations for acute ischemic lesions on DWI were manually drawn under the consensus of two expert radiologists. CNN algorithms were developed using two-dimensional U-Net with squeeze-and-excitation blocks (U-Net) and a DenseNet with squeeze-and-excitation blocks (DenseNet) with squeeze-and-excitation operations for automatic segmentation of acute ischemic lesions on DWI. The CNN algorithms were compared with conventional algorithms based on DWI and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) signal intensity. The performances of the algorithms were assessed using the Dice index with 5-fold cross-validation. The Dice indices were analyzed according to infarct volumes (< 10 mL, ≥ 10 mL), number of infarcts (≤ 5, 6-10, ≥ 11), and b-value of 1000 (b1000) signal intensities (< 50, 50-100, > 100), time intervals to DWI, and DWI protocols. Results: The CNN algorithms were significantly superior to conventional algorithms (p < 0.001). Dice indices for the CNN algorithms were 0.85 for U-Net and DenseNet and 0.86 for an ensemble of U-Net and DenseNet, while the indices were 0.58 for ADC-b1000 and b1000-ADC and 0.52 for the commercial ADC algorithm. The Dice indices for small and large lesions, respectively, were 0.81 and 0.88 with U-Net, 0.80 and 0.88 with DenseNet, and 0.82 and 0.89 with the ensemble of U-Net and DenseNet. The CNN algorithms showed significant differences in Dice indices according to infarct volumes (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The CNN algorithm for automatic segmentation of acute ischemic lesions on DWI achieved Dice indices greater than or equal to 0.85 and showed superior performance to conventional algorithms.

The whole world now is dealing with Coronavirus, and it has turned to be one of the most widespread and long-lived pandemics of our times. Reports reveal that the infectious disease has taken toll of the almost 80% of the world's population. Amidst a lot of research going on with regards to the prediction on growth and transmission through Symptomatic carriers of the virus, it can't be ignored that pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic carriers also play a crucial role in spreading the reach of the virus. Classification Algorithm has been widely used to classify different types of COVID-19 carriers ranging from simple feature-based classification to Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). This research paper aims to present a novel technique using a Random Forest Machine learning algorithm with hyper-parameter tuning to classify different types COVID-19-carriers such that these carriers can be accurately characterized and hence dealt timely to contain the spread of the virus. The main idea for selecting Random Forest is that it works on the powerful concept of "the wisdom of crowd" which produces ensemble prediction. The results are quite convincing and the model records an accuracy score of 99.72 %. The results have been compared with the same dataset being subjected to K-Nearest Neighbour, logistic regression, support vector machine (SVM), and Decision Tree algorithms where the accuracy score has been recorded as 78.58%, 70.11%, 70.385,99% respectively, thus establishing the concreteness and suitability of our approach.
