Enhancing land cover classification in remote sensing imagery using an optimal deep learning model

The land cover classification process, accomplished through Remote Sensing Imagery (RSI), exploits advanced Machine Learning (ML) approaches to classify different types of land cover within the geographical area, captured by the RS method. The model distinguishes various types of land cover under different classes, such as agricultural fields, water bodies, urban areas, forests, etc. based on the patterns present in these images. The application of Deep Learning (DL)-based land cover classification technique in RSI revolutionizes the accuracy and efficiency of land cover mapping. By leveraging the abilities of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) namely, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) or Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), the technology can autonomously learn spatial and spectral features inherent to the RSI. The current study presents an Improved Sand Cat Swarm Optimization with Deep Learning-based Land Cover Classification (ISCSODL-LCC) approach on the RSIs. The main objective of the proposed method is to efficiently classify the dissimilar land cover types within the geographical area, pictured by remote sensing models. The ISCSODL-LCC technique utilizes advanced machine learning methods by employing the Squeeze-Excitation ResNet (SE-ResNet) model for feature extraction and the Stacked Gated Recurrent Unit (SGRU) mechanism for land cover classification. Since ‘manual hyperparameter tuning’ is an erroneous and laborious task, the AIMS Mathematics Volume 9, Issue 1, 140–159. hyperparameter selection is accomplished with the help of the Reptile Search Algorithm (RSA). The simulation analysis was conducted upon the ISCSODL-LCC model using two benchmark datasets and the results established the superior performance of the proposed model. The simulation values infer better outcomes of the ISCSODL-LCC method over other techniques with the maximum accuracy values such as 97.92% and 99.14% under India Pines and Pavia University datasets, respectively

A Bayesian Dynamic Inference Approach Based on Extracted Gray Level Co-Occurrence (GLCM) Features for the Dynamical Analysis of Congestive Heart Failure

The adoptability of the heart to external and internal stimuli is reflected by heart rate variability (HRV). Reduced HRV can be a predictor of post-infarction mortality. In this study, we propose an automated system to predict and diagnose congestive heart failure using short-term heart rate variability analysis. Based on the nonlinear, nonstationary, and highly complex dynamics of congestive heart failure, we extracted multimodal features to capture the temporal, spectral, and complex dynamics. Recently, the Bayesian inference approach has been recognized as an attractive option for the deeper analysis of static features, in order to perform a comprehensive analysis of extracted nodes (features). We computed the gray level co-occurrence (GLCM) features from congestive heart failure signals and then ranked them based on ROC methods. This study focused on utilizing the dissimilarity feature, which is ranked as highly important, as a target node for the empirical analysis of dynamic profiling and optimization, in order to explain the nonlinear dynamics of GLCM features extracted from heart failure signals, and distinguishing CHF from NSR. We applied Bayesian inference and Pearson’s correlation (PC). The association, in terms of node force and mapping, was computed. The higher-ranking target node was used to compute the posterior probability, total effect, arc contribution, network profile, and compression. The highest value of ROC was obtained for dissimilarity, at 0.3589. Based on the information-gain algorithm, the highest strength of the relationship was obtained between nodes “dissimilarity” and “cluster performance” (1.0146), relative to mutual information (81.33%). Moreover, the highest relative binary significance was yielded for dissimilarity for 1/3rd (80.19%), 2/3rd (74.95%) and 3/3rd (100%). The results revealed that the proposed methodology can provide further in-depth insights for the early diagnosis and prognosis of congestive heart failure
