Detecting premature ventricular contractions in ECG signals with Gaussian processes
The aim of this work is twofold. First, we propose to investigate the capabilities of a new Bayesian approach for detecting premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), namely the Gaussian process (GP) approach. Second, we report an experimental comparison of different kinds of ECG signal representations, which are the standard temporal signal morphology, the discrete wavelet transform domain, the S-transform characteristics and the high-order statistics. In general, the obtained classification results show that the GP detector can compete seriously with state-of-the-art methods since it allows to yield better overall accuracy as well as better sensitivity. In addition, among the different kinds of features explored, those based on high-order statistics appear to be the best compromise between accuracy and computational time for PVC detection. 1
A scalable dataflow accelerator for real time onboard hyperspectral image classification
© Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.Real-time hyperspectral image classification is a necessary primitive in many remotely sensed image analysis applications. Previous work has shown that Support Vector Machines (SVMs) can achieve high classification accuracy, but unfortunately it is very computationally expensive. This paper presents a scalable dataflow accelerator on FPGA for real-time SVM classification of hyperspectral images.To address data dependencies, we adapt multi-class classifier based on Hamming distance. The architecture is scalable to high problem dimensionality and available hardware resources. Implementation results show that the FPGA design achieves speedups of 26x, 1335x, 66x and 14x compared with implementations on ZYNQ, ARM, DSP and Xeon processors. Moreover, one to two orders of magnitude reduction in power consumption is achieved for the AVRIS hyperspectral image datasets

Exploring synergetic effects of dimensionality reduction and resampling tools on hyperspectral imagery data classification
The present paper addresses the problem of the classification of hyperspectral images with multiple imbalanced classes and very high dimensionality. Class imbalance is handled by resampling the data set, whereas PCA and a supervised filter are applied to reduce the number of spectral bands. This is a preliminary study that pursues to investigate the benefits of combining several techniques to tackle the imbalance and the high dimensionality problems, and also to evaluate the order of application that leads to the best classification performance. Experimental results demonstrate the significance of using together these two preprocessing tools to improve the performance of hyperspectral imagery classification. Although it seems that the most effective order corresponds to first a resampling strategy and then a feature (or extraction) selection algorithm, this is a question that still needs a much more thorough investigation in the futureThis work has partially been supported by the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science under grants CSD2007–00018, AYA2008–05965–0596 and TIN2009–14205, the Fundació Caixa Castelló–Bancaixa under grant P1–1B2009–04, and the Generalitat Valenciana under grant PROMETEO/2010/02
Airborne Object Detection Using Hyperspectral Imaging: Deep Learning Review
© 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. Hyperspectral images have been increasingly important in object detection applications especially in remote sensing scenarios. Machine learning algorithms have become emerging tools for hyperspectral image analysis. The high dimensionality of hyperspectral images and the availability of simulated spectral sample libraries make deep learning an appealing approach. This report reviews recent data processing and object detection methods in the area including hand-crafted and automated feature extraction based on deep learning neural networks. The accuracy performances were compared according to existing reports as well as our own experiments (i.e., re-implementing and testing on new datasets). CNN models provided reliable performance of over 97% detection accuracy across a large set of HSI collections. A wide range of data were used: a rural area (Indian Pines data), an urban area (Pavia University), a wetland region (Botswana), an industrial field (Kennedy Space Center), to a farm site (Salinas). Note that, the Botswana set was not reviewed in recent works, thus high accuracy selected methods were newly compared in this work. A plain CNN model was also found to be able to perform comparably to its more complex variants in target detection applications

Ground-truth assisted design for remote sensing image classification
In this work, we propose a framework to help in the design of the ground-truth for the classification of remote sensing images. It consists first to segment the considered image by means of a level set method and then to extract the segments characterized by the largest numbers of pixels. Afterward, the selected segments are labeled by a human user. Experimental results obtained on a very high resolution image show encouraging performances of the proposed framework. © 2011 IEEE
