Smart Content Recognition from Images Using a Mixture of Convolutional Neural Networks
With rapid development of the Internet, web contents become huge. Most of the
websites are publicly available, and anyone can access the contents from
anywhere such as workplace, home and even schools. Nevertheless, not all the
web contents are appropriate for all users, especially children. An example of
these contents is pornography images which should be restricted to certain age
group. Besides, these images are not safe for work (NSFW) in which employees
should not be seen accessing such contents during work. Recently, convolutional
neural networks have been successfully applied to many computer vision
problems. Inspired by these successes, we propose a mixture of convolutional
neural networks for adult content recognition. Unlike other works, our method
is formulated on a weighted sum of multiple deep neural network models. The
weights of each CNN models are expressed as a linear regression problem learned
using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). Experimental results demonstrate that the
proposed model outperforms both single CNN model and the average sum of CNN
models in adult content recognition.Comment: To be published in LNEE, Code: github.com/mundher/NSF
Incremental construction of LSTM recurrent neural network
Long Short--Term Memory (LSTM) is a recurrent neural network that
uses structures called memory blocks to allow the net remember
significant events distant in the past input sequence in order to
solve long time lag tasks, where other RNN approaches fail.
Throughout this work we have performed experiments using LSTM
networks extended with growing abilities, which we call GLSTM.
Four methods of training growing LSTM has been compared. These
methods include cascade and fully connected hidden layers as well
as two different levels of freezing previous weights in the
cascade case. GLSTM has been applied to a forecasting problem in a biomedical domain, where the input/output behavior of five
controllers of the Central Nervous System control has to be
modelled. We have compared growing LSTM results against other
neural networks approaches, and our work applying conventional
LSTM to the task at hand.Postprint (published version
Identification of nonlinear time-varying systems using an online sliding-window and common model structure selection (CMSS) approach with applications to EEG
The identification of nonlinear time-varying systems using linear-in-the-parameter models is investigated. A new efficient Common Model Structure Selection (CMSS)
algorithm is proposed to select a common model structure. The main idea and key procedure is: First, generate K 1 data sets (the first K data sets are used for training, and theK 1 th one is used for testing) using an online sliding window method; then detect significant model terms to form a common model structure which fits over all the K
training data sets using the new proposed CMSS approach. Finally, estimate and refine the time-varying parameters for the identified common-structured model using a Recursive Least Squares (RLS) parameter estimation method. The new method can effectively detect and adaptively track the transient variation of nonstationary signals. Two examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the new approach including an application to an EEG data set
