It is extremely challenging owing to various defect appearances, large intraclass variation, ambiguous interclass distance, and unstable gray values. In this paper, a generalized completed local binary patterns (GCLBP) framework is proposed. Two variants of improved completed local binary patterns (ICLBP) and improved completed noise-invariant local-structure patterns (ICNLP) under the GCLBP framework are developed for steel surface defect classification. Different from conventional local binary patterns variants, descriptive information hidden in nonuniform patterns is innovatively excavated for the better defect representation. This paper focuses on the following aspects. First, a lightweight searching algorithm is established for exploiting the dominant nonuniform patterns (DNUPs). Second, a hybrid pattern code mapping mechanism is proposed to encode all the uniform patterns and DNUPs. Third, feature extraction is carried out under the GCLBP framework. Finally, histogram matching is efficiently accomplished by simple nearest-neighbor classifier. The classification accuracy and time efficiency are verified on a widely recognized texture database (Outex) and a real-world steel surface defect database [Northeastern University (NEU)]. The experimental results promise that the proposed method can be widely applied in online automatic optical inspection instruments for hot-rolled strip steel.Peer reviewe
Clinical Assistant Diagnosis for Electronic Medical Record Based on Convolutional Neural Network
Automatically extracting useful information from electronic medical records
along with conducting disease diagnoses is a promising task for both clinical
decision support(CDS) and neural language processing(NLP). Most of the existing
systems are based on artificially constructed knowledge bases, and then
auxiliary diagnosis is done by rule matching. In this study, we present a
clinical intelligent decision approach based on Convolutional Neural
Networks(CNN), which can automatically extract high-level semantic information
of electronic medical records and then perform automatic diagnosis without
artificial construction of rules or knowledge bases. We use collected 18,590
copies of the real-world clinical electronic medical records to train and test
the proposed model. Experimental results show that the proposed model can
achieve 98.67\% accuracy and 96.02\% recall, which strongly supports that using
convolutional neural network to automatically learn high-level semantic
features of electronic medical records and then conduct assist diagnosis is
feasible and effective.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures, Accepted by Scientific Report
