Recognizing human actions in videos is an active topic with broad commercial potentials. Most of the existing action recognition methods are supposed to have the same camera view during both training and testing. And thus performances of these single-view approaches may be severely influenced by the camera movement and variation of viewpoints. In this paper, we address the above problem by utilizing videos simultaneously recorded from multiple views. To this end, we propose a learning framework based on multitask random forest to exploit a discriminative mid-level representation for videos from multiple cameras. In the first step, subvolumes of continuous human-centered figures are extracted from original videos. In the next step, spatiotemporal cuboids sampled from these subvolumes are characterized by multiple low-level descriptors. Then a set of multitask random forests are built upon multiview cuboids sampled at adjacent positions and construct an integrated mid-level representation for multiview subvolumes of one action. Finally, a random forest classifier is employed to predict the action category in terms of the learned representation. Experiments conducted on the multiview IXMAS action dataset illustrate that the proposed method can effectively recognize human actions depicted in multiview videos.

We developed a web-based cloud-hosted system that allow users to archive, listen, visualize, and annotate recordings. The system also provides tools to convert these annotations into datasets that can be used to train a computer to detect the presence or absence of a species. The algorithm used by the system was selected after comparing the accuracy and efficiency of three variants of a template-based classification. The algorithm computes a similarity vector by comparing a template of a species call with time increments across the spectrogram. Statistical features are extracted from this vector and used as input for a Random Forest classifier that predicts presence or absence of the species in the recording. The fastest algorithm variant had the highest average accuracy and specificity; therefore, it was implemented in the ARBIMON web-based system.

New Iterative Method

Random Forests are well-known Machine Learning classification mechanisms based on a collection of decision trees. In the last years, they have been applied to assess the risk of diabetic patients to develop Diabetic Retinopathy. The results have been good, despite the unbalance of data between classes and the inherent ambiguity of the problem (patients with similar data may belong to different classes). In this work we propose a new iterative method to update the set of trees in the Random Forest by considering trees generated from the data of the new patients that are visited in the medical centre. With this method, it has been possible to improve the results obtained with standard Random Forests.

Key Frames

In Multi-View Human Action Recognition, the actions are not of single view and hence to achieve an effective recognition performance under multi-view actions, there is a need of multi-view subclass discrimination analysis. Based on this inspiration, this paper proposed a novel action recognition framework based on the Subclass Discriminant Analysis (SDA), an extended version of Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). Further, a new key frames selection method is proposed based on Self-Similarity Matrix (SSM), called as Gradient SSM (GSSM). Once the key frames are selected, a composite feature set is extracted through three different set filters such as Gaussian Filter, Gabor filter and Wavelet Filter. Next, the SDA obtain an optimal feature subspace for every action under multiple Views. Finally the SVM algorithm classifies the action. The proposed framework is systematically evaluated on IXMAS dataset and NIXMAS dataset. Experimental results enumerate that our method outperforms the conventional techniques in terms of recognition accuracy.

AbstractWe sought to evaluate the utility of radiomics for Amide Proton Transfer weighted (APTw) imaging by assessing its value in differentiating brain metastases from high- and low grade glial brain tumors. We retrospectively identified 48 treatment-naïve patients (10 WHO grade 2, 1 WHO grade 3, 10 WHO grade 4 primary glial brain tumors and 27 metastases) with either primary glial brain tumors or metastases who had undergone APTw MR imaging. After image analysis with radiomics feature extraction and post-processing, machine learning algorithms (multilayer perceptron machine learning algorithm; random forest classifier) with stratified tenfold cross validation were trained on features and were used to differentiate the brain neoplasms. The multilayer perceptron achieved an AUC of 0.836 (receiver operating characteristic curve) in differentiating primary glial brain tumors from metastases. The random forest classifier achieved an AUC of 0.868 in differentiating WHO grade 4 from WHO grade 2/3 primary glial brain tumors. For the differentiation of WHO grade 4 tumors from grade 2/3 tumors and metastases an average AUC of 0.797 was achieved. Our results indicate that the use of radiomics for APTw imaging is feasible and the differentiation of primary glial brain tumors from metastases is achievable with a high degree of accuracy.
