A Genetic Algorithm and Fuzzy Logic Approach for Video Shot Boundary Detection
This paper proposed a shot boundary detection approach using Genetic Algorithm and Fuzzy Logic. In this, the membership functions of the fuzzy system are calculated using Genetic Algorithm by taking preobserved actual values for shot boundaries. The classification of the types of shot transitions is done by the fuzzy system. Experimental results show that the accuracy of the shot boundary detection increases with the increase in iterations or generations of the GA optimization process. The proposed system is compared to latest techniques and yields better result in terms of F1score parameter
Open-Category Classification by Adversarial Sample Generation
In real-world classification tasks, it is difficult to collect training
samples from all possible categories of the environment. Therefore, when an
instance of an unseen class appears in the prediction stage, a robust
classifier should be able to tell that it is from an unseen class, instead of
classifying it to be any known category. In this paper, adopting the idea of
adversarial learning, we propose the ASG framework for open-category
classification. ASG generates positive and negative samples of seen categories
in the unsupervised manner via an adversarial learning strategy. With the
generated samples, ASG then learns to tell seen from unseen in the supervised
manner. Experiments performed on several datasets show the effectiveness of
ASG.Comment: Published in IJCAI 201
Recent Trends in Computational Intelligence
Traditional models struggle to cope with complexity, noise, and the existence of a changing environment, while Computational Intelligence (CI) offers solutions to complicated problems as well as reverse problems. The main feature of CI is adaptability, spanning the fields of machine learning and computational neuroscience. CI also comprises biologically-inspired technologies such as the intellect of swarm as part of evolutionary computation and encompassing wider areas such as image processing, data collection, and natural language processing. This book aims to discuss the usage of CI for optimal solving of various applications proving its wide reach and relevance. Bounding of optimization methods and data mining strategies make a strong and reliable prediction tool for handling real-life applications
Neural networks in geophysical applications
Neural networks are increasingly popular in geophysics.
Because they are universal approximators, these
tools can approximate any continuous function with an
arbitrary precision. Hence, they may yield important
contributions to finding solutions to a variety of geophysical applications.
However, knowledge of many methods and techniques
recently developed to increase the performance
and to facilitate the use of neural networks does not seem
to be widespread in the geophysical community. Therefore,
the power of these tools has not yet been explored to
their full extent. In this paper, techniques are described
for faster training, better overall performance, i.e., generalization,and the automatic estimation of network size
and architecture
A Survey on Surrogate-assisted Efficient Neural Architecture Search
Neural architecture search (NAS) has become increasingly popular in the deep
learning community recently, mainly because it can provide an opportunity to
allow interested users without rich expertise to benefit from the success of
deep neural networks (DNNs). However, NAS is still laborious and time-consuming
because a large number of performance estimations are required during the
search process of NAS, and training DNNs is computationally intensive. To solve
the major limitation of NAS, improving the efficiency of NAS is essential in
the design of NAS. This paper begins with a brief introduction to the general
framework of NAS. Then, the methods for evaluating network candidates under the
proxy metrics are systematically discussed. This is followed by a description
of surrogate-assisted NAS, which is divided into three different categories,
namely Bayesian optimization for NAS, surrogate-assisted evolutionary
algorithms for NAS, and MOP for NAS. Finally, remaining challenges and open
research questions are discussed, and promising research topics are suggested
in this emerging field.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figure
