Recognition and Classification of Pomegranate Leaves Diseases by Image Processing and Machine Learning Techniques

Disease recognition in plants is one of the essential problems in agricultural image processing. This article focuses on designing a framework that can recognize and classify diseases on pomegranate plants exactly. The framework utilizes image processing techniques such as image acquisition, image resizing, image enhancement, image segmentation, ROI extraction (region of interest), and feature extraction. An image dataset related to pomegranate leaf disease is utilized to implement the framework, divided into a training set and a test set. In the implementation process, techniques such as image enhancement and image segmentation are primarily used for identifying ROI and features. An image classification will then be implemented by combining a supervised learning model with a support vector machine. The proposed framework is developed based on MATLAB with a graphical user interface. According to the experimental results, the proposed framework can achieve 98.39% accuracy for classifying diseased and healthy leaves. Moreover, the framework can achieve an accuracy of 98.07% for classifying diseases on pomegranate leaves.     

多核支持向量机多示例学习的行人再识别

行人再识别中的难点在于在不同摄像机中同一行人的图像差异较大,单一特征难以稳定地描述图像,而采用多种特征融合时无法准确分配权重。针对这一缺陷,本文提出了多核支持向量机多示例学习的行人再识别算法。首先提取行人在A、B摄像机下二张图片的分块HSV颜色特征和分块SIFT局部特征并构建词袋,将二者作为示例样本封装成包;其次对多核支持向量机模型进行了优化,采用高斯核和多项式核线性融合对包进行训练,并用多示例学习获得最优权重;最后本文算法在VIPe R标准数据集上进行了测试,识别准确率通过计算十次实验的平均准确度来获得,并用CMC曲线进行表示,同时也对样本的匹配结果进行排序。实验结果表明本文算法与多个优秀的算法相比,鲁棒性和识别准确度都获得了提高。     

Early Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy Using Machine Intelligence through Deep Transfer and Representational Learning

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a retinal disease that causes irreversible blindness. DR occurs due to the high blood sugar level of the patient, and it is clumsy to be detected at an early stage as no early symptoms appear at the initial level. To prevent blindness, early detection and regular treatment are needed. Automated detection based on machine intelligence may assist the ophthalmologist in examining the patients’ condition more accurately and efficiently. The purpose of this study is to produce an automated screening system for recognition and grading of diabetic retinopathy using machine learning through deep transfer and representational learning. The artificial intelligence technique used is transfer learning on the deep neural network, Inception-v4. Two configuration variants of transfer learning are applied on Inception-v4: Fine-tune mode and fixed feature extractor mode. Both configuration modes have achieved decent accuracy values, but the fine-tuning method outperforms the fixed feature extractor configuration mode. Fine-tune configuration mode has gained 96.6% accuracy in early detection of DR and 97.7% accuracy in grading the disease and has outperformed the state of the art methods in the relevant literature.

Detection of Number of Wideband Signals Based on Support Vector Machine

In array signal processing, number of signals is often a premise of estimating other parameters. For the sake of determining signal number in the condition of strong additive noise or a little sample data, an algorithm for detecting number of wideband signals is provided. First, technique of focusing is used for transforming signals into a same focusing subspace. Then the support vector machine (SVM) can be deduced by the information of eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors. At last, the signal number can be determined with the obtained decision function. Several simulations have been carried on verifying the proposed algorithm.

Applying ANN,ANFIS and LSSVM Models for Estimation of Acid Solvent Solubility in Supercritical CO₂

In the present work, a novel machine learning computational investigation is carried out to accurately predict the solubility of different acids in supercritical carbon dioxide. Four different machine learning algorithms of radial basis function, multi-layer perceptron (MLP), artificial neural networks (ANN), least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) are used to model the solubility of different acids in carbon dioxide based on the temperature, pressure, hydrogen number, carbon number, molecular weight, and the dissociation constant of acid. To evaluate the proposed models, different graphical and statistical analyses, along with novel sensitivity analysis, are carried out. The present study proposes an efficient tool for acid solubility estimation in supercritical carbon dioxide, which can be highly beneficial for engineers and chemists to predict operational conditions in industries.     

Machine Learning Empowered Security Management and Quality of Service Provision in SDN-NFV Environment

With the rising demand for data access, network service providers face the challenge of growing their capital and operating costs while at the same time enhancing network capacity and meeting the increased demand for access. To increase efficacy of Software Defined Network (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) framework, we need to eradicate network security configuration errors that may create vulnerabilities to affect overall efficiency, reduce network performance, and increase maintenance cost. The existing frameworks lack in security, and computer systems face few abnormalities, which prompts the need for different recognition and mitigation methods to keep the system in the operational state proactively. The fundamental concept behind SDN-NFV is the encroachment from specific resource execution to the programming-based structure. This research is around the combination of SDN and NFV for rational decision making to control and monitor traffic in the virtualized environment. The combination is often seen as an extra burden in terms of resources usage in a heterogeneous network environment, but as well as it provides the solution for critical problems specially regarding massive network traffic issues. The attacks have been expanding step by step; therefore, it is hard to recognize and protect by conventional methods. To overcome these issues, there must be an autonomous system to recognize and characterize the network traffic’s abnormal conduct if there is any. Only four types of assaults, including HTTP Flood, UDP Flood, Smurf Flood, and SiDDoS Flood, are considered in the identified dataset, to optimize the stability of the SDN-NFV environment and security management, through several machine learning based characterization techniques like Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Logistic Regression (LR) and Isolation Forest (IF). Python is used for simulation purposes, including several valuable utilities like the mine package, the open-source Python ML libraries Scikit-learn, NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib. Few Flood assaults and Structured Query Language (SQL) injections anomalies are validated and effectively-identified through the anticipated procedure. The classification results are promising and show that overall accuracy lies between 87% to 95% for SVM, LR, KNN, and IF classifiers in the scrutiny of traffic, whether the network traffic is normal or anomalous in the SDN-NFV environment.
