Learning models for semantic classification of insufficient plantar pressure images
Establishing a reliable and stable model to predict a target by using insufficient labeled samples is feasible and
effective, particularly, for a sensor-generated data-set. This paper has been inspired with insufficient data-set
learning algorithms, such as metric-based, prototype networks and meta-learning, and therefore we propose
an insufficient data-set transfer model learning method. Firstly, two basic models for transfer learning are
introduced. A classification system and calculation criteria are then subsequently introduced. Secondly, a dataset
of plantar pressure for comfort shoe design is acquired and preprocessed through foot scan system; and by
using a pre-trained convolution neural network employing AlexNet and convolution neural network (CNN)-
based transfer modeling, the classification accuracy of the plantar pressure images is over 93.5%. Finally,
the proposed method has been compared to the current classifiers VGG, ResNet, AlexNet and pre-trained
CNN. Also, our work is compared with known-scaling and shifting (SS) and unknown-plain slot (PS) partition
methods on the public test databases: SUN, CUB, AWA1, AWA2, and aPY with indices of precision (tr, ts, H)
and time (training and evaluation). The proposed method for the plantar pressure classification task shows high
performance in most indices when comparing with other methods. The transfer learning-based method can be
applied to other insufficient data-sets of sensor imaging fields
Image mining: trends and developments
[Abstract]: Advances in image acquisition and storage technology have led to tremendous growth in very large and detailed image databases. These images, if analyzed, can reveal useful information to the human users. Image mining deals with the extraction of implicit knowledge, image data relationship, or other patterns not explicitly stored in the images. Image mining is more than just an extension of data mining to image domain. It is an interdisciplinary endeavor that draws upon expertise in computer vision, image processing, image retrieval, data mining, machine learning, database, and artificial intelligence. In this paper, we will examine the research issues in image mining, current developments in image mining, particularly, image mining frameworks, state-of-the-art techniques and systems. We will also identify some future research directions for image mining
Deep Learning in Cardiology
The medical field is creating large amount of data that physicians are unable
to decipher and use efficiently. Moreover, rule-based expert systems are
inefficient in solving complicated medical tasks or for creating insights using
big data. Deep learning has emerged as a more accurate and effective technology
in a wide range of medical problems such as diagnosis, prediction and
intervention. Deep learning is a representation learning method that consists
of layers that transform the data non-linearly, thus, revealing hierarchical
relationships and structures. In this review we survey deep learning
application papers that use structured data, signal and imaging modalities from
cardiology. We discuss the advantages and limitations of applying deep learning
in cardiology that also apply in medicine in general, while proposing certain
directions as the most viable for clinical use.Comment: 27 pages, 2 figures, 10 table
A convolutional autoencoder approach for mining features in cellular electron cryo-tomograms and weakly supervised coarse segmentation
Cellular electron cryo-tomography enables the 3D visualization of cellular
organization in the near-native state and at submolecular resolution. However,
the contents of cellular tomograms are often complex, making it difficult to
automatically isolate different in situ cellular components. In this paper, we
propose a convolutional autoencoder-based unsupervised approach to provide a
coarse grouping of 3D small subvolumes extracted from tomograms. We demonstrate
that the autoencoder can be used for efficient and coarse characterization of
features of macromolecular complexes and surfaces, such as membranes. In
addition, the autoencoder can be used to detect non-cellular features related
to sample preparation and data collection, such as carbon edges from the grid
and tomogram boundaries. The autoencoder is also able to detect patterns that
may indicate spatial interactions between cellular components. Furthermore, we
demonstrate that our autoencoder can be used for weakly supervised semantic
segmentation of cellular components, requiring a very small amount of manual
annotation.Comment: Accepted by Journal of Structural Biolog
