In this paper we present a methodology for the automatic recognition of black Sigatoka in commercial banana crops. This method uses a LeNet convolutional neural network to detect the progress of infection by the disease in different regions of a leaf image; using this information, we trained a decision tree in order to classify the level of infection severity. The methodology was validated with an annotated database, which was built in the process of this work and which can be compared with other state-of-the-art alternatives. The results show that the method is robust against atypical values and photometric variations.

Sign Languages (SLs) are visual–gestural languages that have developed naturally in deaf communities. They are based on the use of lexical signs, that is, conventionalized units, as well as highly iconic structures, i.e., when the form of an utterance and the meaning it carries are not independent. Although most research in automatic Sign Language Recognition (SLR) has focused on lexical signs, we wish to broaden this perspective and consider the recognition of non-conventionalized iconic and syntactic elements. We propose the use of corpora made by linguists like the finely and consistently annotated dialogue corpus Dicta-Sign-LSF-v2. We then redefined the problem of automatic SLR as the recognition of linguistic descriptors, with carefully thought out performance metrics. Moreover, we developed a compact and generalizable representation of signers in videos by parallel processing of the hands, face and upper body, then an adapted learning architecture based on a Recurrent Convolutional Neural Network (RCNN). Through a study focused on the recognition of four linguistic descriptors, we show the soundness of the proposed approach and pave the way for a wider understanding of Continuous Sign Language Recognition (CSLR).

In recent years, with the development of the high resolution data acquisition technologies, many different approaches and algorithms have been presented to extract the accurate and timely updated 3D models of buildings as a key element of city structures for numerous applications in urban mapping. In this paper, a novel and model-based approach is proposed for automatic recognition of buildings’ roof models such as flat, gable, hip, and pyramid hip roof models based on deep structures for hierarchical learning of features that are extracted from both LiDAR and aerial ortho-photos. The main steps of this approach include building segmentation, feature extraction and learning, and finally building roof labeling in a supervised pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) framework to have an automatic recognition system for various types of buildings over an urban area. In this framework, the height information provides invariant geometric features for convolutional neural network to localize the boundary of each individual roofs. CNN is a kind of feed-forward neural network with the multilayer perceptron concept which consists of a number of convolutional and subsampling layers in an adaptable structure and it is widely used in pattern recognition and object detection application. Since the training dataset is a small library of labeled models for different shapes of roofs, the computation time of learning can be decreased significantly using the pre-trained models. The experimental results highlight the effectiveness of the deep learning approach to detect and extract the pattern of buildings’ roofs automatically considering the complementary nature of height and RGB information.
