A Convolutional Neural Network model based on Neutrosophy for Noisy Speech Recognition
Convolutional neural networks are sensitive to unknown noisy condition in the
test phase and so their performance degrades for the noisy data classification
task including noisy speech recognition. In this research, a new convolutional
neural network (CNN) model with data uncertainty handling; referred as NCNN
(Neutrosophic Convolutional Neural Network); is proposed for classification
task. Here, speech signals are used as input data and their noise is modeled as
uncertainty. In this task, using speech spectrogram, a definition of
uncertainty is proposed in neutrosophic (NS) domain. Uncertainty is computed
for each Time-frequency point of speech spectrogram as like a pixel. Therefore,
uncertainty matrix with the same size of spectrogram is created in NS domain.
In the next step, a two parallel paths CNN classification model is proposed.
Speech spectrogram is used as input of the first path and uncertainty matrix
for the second path. The outputs of two paths are combined to compute the final
output of the classifier. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, it
has been compared with conventional CNN on the isolated words of Aurora2
dataset. The proposed method achieves the average accuracy of 85.96 in noisy
train data. It is more robust against Car, Airport and Subway noises with
accuracies 90, 88 and 81 in test sets A, B and C, respectively. Results show
that the proposed method outperforms conventional CNN with the improvement of
6, 5 and 2 percentage in test set A, test set B and test sets C, respectively.
It means that the proposed method is more robust against noisy data and handle
these data effectively.Comment: International conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis

Fluid segmentation in Neutrosophic domain
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) as retina imaging technology is currently
used by ophthalmologist as a non-invasive and non-contact method for diagnosis
of agerelated degeneration (AMD) and diabetic macular edema (DME) diseases.
Fluid regions in OCT images reveal the main signs of AMD and DME. In this
paper, an efficient and fast clustering in neutrosophic (NS) domain referred as
neutrosophic C-means is adapted for fluid segmentation. For this task, a NCM
cost function in NS domain is adapted for fluid segmentation and then optimized
by gradient descend methods which leads to binary segmentation of OCT Bscans to
fluid and tissue regions. The proposed method is evaluated in OCT datasets of
subjects with DME abnormalities. Results showed that the proposed method
outperforms existing fluid segmentation methods by 6% in dice coefficient and
sensitivity criteria
NeutroAlgebra Theory, volume I
Neutrosophic theory and its applications have been expanding in all directions at an astonishing rate especially after of the introduction the journal entitled “Neutrosophic Sets and Systems”. New theories, techniques, algorithms have been rapidly developed. One of the most striking trends in the neutrosophic theory is the hybridization of neutrosophic set with other potential sets such as rough set, bipolar set, soft set, hesitant fuzzy set, etc. The different hybrid structures such as rough neutrosophic set, single valued neutrosophic rough set, bipolar neutrosophic set, single valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set, etc. are proposed in the literature in a short period of time. Neutrosophic set has been an important tool in the application of various areas such as data mining, decision making, e-learning, engineering, medicine, social science, and some more
