基于图像识别的铜转炉吹炼造渣期渣含Fe预测模型研究

铜转炉吹炼是火法炼铜的关键工序,其终点判断与炉寿、铜产率和直收率紧密相关,目前现有人工经验、仪器测定和物料平衡法等终点判断方法均存在一定的局限性。理论上铜转炉吹炼造渣期终点与渣含Fe是否达标有关,而不同Fe含量渣样呈现不同的图像特征,鉴于此,基于图形识别的特征向量提取原理,分别采用卷积神经网络(CNN)算法与支持向量机(SVM)算法,构建了铜转炉吹炼造渣期渣含Fe预测模型,为图像识别技术在铜转炉吹炼终点判断中的应用奠定数模基础。两种模型的实例分析表明,卷积神经网络的训练集预测准确率98%,测试集预测准确率约50%;支持向量机模型的训练集预测准确率99%,测试集预测准确率62%。     

Quadratic optimization fine tuning for the Support Vector Machines learning phase

This work presents a comparative analysis of specific, rather than general, mathematical programming implementation techniques of the quadratic optimization problem (QP) based on Support Vector Machines (SVM) learning process. Considering the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) optimality conditions, we present a strategy of implementation of the SVM-QP following three classical approaches: (i) active set, also divided in primal and dual spaces, methods, (ii) interior point methods and (iii) linearization strategies. We also present the general extension to treat large-scale applications consisting in a general decomposition of the QP problem into smaller ones, conserving the exact solution approach. In the same manner, we propose a set of heuristics to take into account for a better than a random selection process for the initialization of the decomposition strategy. We compare the performances of the optimization strategies using some well-known benchmark databases.

面向基于脑-机接口（Brain-computer interface,BCI）的脑-机交互控制（Brain-machine interaction control,BMIC）——直接脑控机器人,提出一种新的左、右手握力运动参数范式,在该范式下探索左、右手握力运动相关皮层电位/运动相关电位（Movement-related potentials,MRPs）的时域特征表示并识别握力运动模式.在涉及左、右手4个不同任务的实验中采集了11个健康被试的脑电信号,任务期间要求被试以2种握力变化模式之一完成自愿握力运动,每种任务随机重复30次.不同握力任务之间具有显著差异的运动相关电位特征用于识别握力运动模式.分别用基于核的Fisher线性判别分析和支持向量机识别4个不同的握力运动任务.研究结果进一步证实运动相关电位可以表征握力运动规划、运动执行和运动监控的脑神经机制过程.基于核的Fisher线性判别分析和支持向量机分别获得24±4%和21±5%的平均错误分类率.最小误分类率是12%,所有被试平均最小误分类率为20.9±5%.与传统的仅仅识别参与运动的肢体类型以及识别单侧肢体运动参数的研究相比,本研究可望为脑-机交互控制/脑控机器人接口提供更多的力控制意图指令,奠定了后续的对比研究基础.     

BiELL: A bisection ELLPACK-based storage format for optimizing SpMV on GPUs

Sparse matrix–vector multiplication (SpMV) is one of the most important high level operations for basic linear algebra. Nowadays, the GPU has evolved into a highly parallel coprocessor which is suited to compute-intensive, highly parallel computation. Achieving high performance of SpMV on GPUs is relatively challenging, especially when the matrix has no specific structure. For these general sparse matrices, a new data structure based on the bisection ELLPACK format, BiELL, is designed to realize the load balance better, and thus improve the performance of the SpMV. Besides, based on the same idea of JAD format, the BiJAD format can be obtained. Experimental results on various matrices show that the BiELL and BiJAD formats perform better than other similar formats, especially when the number of non-zero elements per row varies a lot.     

Computer aided detection system for micro calcifications in digital mammograms

Breast cancer continues to be a significant public health problem in the world. Early detection is the key for improving breast cancer prognosis. Mammogram breast X-ray is considered the most reliable method in early detection of breast cancer. However, it is difficult for radiologists to provide both accurate and uniform evaluation for the enormous mammograms generated in widespread screening. Micro calcification clusters (MCCs) and masses are the two most important signs for the breast cancer, and their automated detection is very valuable for early breast cancer diagnosis. The main objective is to discuss the computer-aided detection system that has been proposed to assist the radiologists in detecting the specific abnormalities and improving the diagnostic accuracy in making the diagnostic decisions by applying techniques splits into three-steps procedure beginning with enhancement by using Histogram equalization (HE) and Morphological Enhancement, followed by segmentation based on Otsu's threshold the region of interest for the identification of micro calcifications and mass lesions, and at last classification stage, which classify between normal and micro calcifications ‘patterns and then classify between benign and malignant micro calcifications. In classification stage; three methods were used, the voting K-Nearest Neighbor classifier (K-NN) with prediction accuracy of 73%, Support Vector Machine classifier (SVM) with prediction accuracy of 83%, and Artificial Neural Network classifier (ANN) with prediction accuracy of 77%.     

Automatic classification and prediction models for early Parkinson’s disease diagnosis from SPECT imaging

Early and accurate diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is important for early management, proper prognostication and for initiating neuroprotective therapies once they become available. Recent neuroimaging techniques such as dopaminergic imaging using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with ¹²³I-Ioflupane (DaTSCAN) have shown to detect even early stages of the disease. In this paper, we use the striatal binding ratio (SBR) values that are calculated from the ¹²³I-Ioflupane SPECT scans (as obtained from the Parkinson’s progression markers initiative (PPMI) database) for developing automatic classification and prediction/prognostic models for early PD. We used support vector machine (SVM) and logistic regression in the model building process. We observe that the SVM classifier with RBF kernel produced a high accuracy of more than 96% in classifying subjects into early PD and healthy normal; and the logistic model for estimating the risk of PD also produced high degree of fitting with statistical significance indicating its usefulness in PD risk estimation. Hence, we infer that such models have the potential to aid the clinicians in the PD diagnostic process.
