The ongoing coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has resulted in a severe ramification on the global healthcare system, principally because of its easy transmission and the extended period of the virus survival on contaminated surfaces. With the advances in computer-aided diagnosis and artificial intelligence, this paper presents the application of deep learning and adversarial network for the automatic identification of COVID-19 pneumonia in computed tomography (CT) scans of the lungs. The complexity and time limitation of the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) swab test makes it disadvantageous to depend solely on as COVID-19’s central diagnostic mechanism. Since CT imaging systems are of low cost and widely available, we demonstrate that the drawback of the RT-PCR can be alleviated with a faster, automated, and reduced contact diagnostic process via the use of a neural network model for the classification of infected and noninfected CT scans. In our proposed model, we explore the benefit of transfer learning as a means of resolving the problem of inadequate dataset and the importance of semisupervised generative adversarial network for the extraction of well-mapped features and generation of image data. Our experimental evaluation indicates that the proposed semisupervised model achieves reliable classification, taking advantage of the reflective loss distance between the real data sample space and the generated data.

Reflectance Data

The classification of trace chemical residues through active spectroscopic sensing is challenging due to the lack of physics-based models that can accurately predict spectra. To overcome this challenge, we leveraged the field of domain adaptation to translate data from the simulated to the measured domain for training a classifier. We developed the first 1D conditional generative adversarial network (GAN) to perform spectrum-to-spectrum translation of reflectance signatures. We applied the 1D conditional GAN to a library of simulated spectra and quantified the improvement in classification accuracy on real data using the translated spectra for training the classifier. Using the GAN-translated library, the average classification accuracy increased from 0.622 to 0.723 on real chemical reflectance data, including data from chemicals not included in the GAN training set.

Target Characteristics

Radar target classification is an important task in the missile defense system. State-of-the-art studies using micro-doppler frequency have been conducted to classify the space object targets. However, existing studies rely highly on feature extraction methods. Therefore, the generalization performance of the classifier is limited and there is room for improvement. Recently, to improve the classification performance, the popular approaches are to build a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture with the help of transfer learning and use the generative adversarial network (GAN) to increase the training datasets. However, these methods still have drawbacks. First, they use only one feature to train the network. Therefore, the existing methods cannot guarantee that the classifier learns more robust target characteristics. Second, it is difficult to obtain large amounts of data that accurately mimic real-world target features by performing data augmentation via GAN instead of simulation. To mitigate the above problem, we propose a transfer learning-based parallel network with the spectrogram and the cadence velocity diagram (CVD) as the inputs. In addition, we obtain an EM simulation-based dataset. The radar-received signal is simulated according to a variety of dynamics using the concept of shooting and bouncing rays with relative aspect angles rather than the scattering center reconstruction method. Our proposed model is evaluated on our generated dataset. The proposed method achieved about 0.01 to 0.39% higher accuracy than the pre-trained networks with a single input feature.

Cellular Life

The cell cycle is an important process in cellular life. In recent years, some image processing methods have been developed to determine the cell cycle stages of individual cells. However, in most of these methods, cells have to be segmented, and their features need to be extracted. During feature extraction, some important information may be lost, resulting in lower classification accuracy. Thus, we used a deep learning method to retain all cell features. In order to solve the problems surrounding insufficient numbers of original images and the imbalanced distribution of original images, we used the Wasserstein generative adversarial network-gradient penalty (WGAN-GP) for data augmentation. At the same time, a residual network (ResNet) was used for image classification. ResNet is one of the most used deep learning classification networks. The classification accuracy of cell cycle images was achieved more effectively with our method, reaching 83.88%. Compared with an accuracy of 79.40% in previous experiments, our accuracy increased by 4.48%. Another dataset was used to verify the effect of our model and, compared with the accuracy from previous results, our accuracy increased by 12.52%. The results showed that our new cell cycle image classification system based on WGAN-GP and ResNet is useful for the classification of imbalanced images. Moreover, our method could potentially solve the low classification accuracy in biomedical images caused by insufficient numbers of original images and the imbalanced distribution of original images.

Embedding Methods

Motivated by the capability of Generative Adversarial Network on exploring the latent semantic space and capturing semantic variations in the data distribution, adversarial learning has been adopted in network embedding to improve the robustness. However, this important ability is lost in existing adversarially regularized network embedding methods, because their embedding results are directly compared to the samples drawn from perturbation (Gaussian) distribution without any rectification from real data. To overcome this vital issue, a novel Joint Adversarial Network Embedding (JANE) framework is proposed to jointly distinguish the real and fake combinations of the embeddings, topology information and node features. JANE contains three pluggable components, Embedding module, Generator module and Discriminator module. The overall objective function of JANE is defined in a min-max form, which can be optimized via alternating stochastic gradient. Extensive experiments demonstrate the remarkable superiority of the proposed JANE on link prediction (3% gains in both AUC and AP) and node clustering (5% gain in F1 score).

The characterization of Room Impulse Responses (RIR) over an extended region in a room by means of measurements requires dense spatial with many microphones. This can often become intractable and time consuming in practice. Well established reconstruction methods such as plane wave regression show that the sound field in a room can be reconstructed from sparsely distributed measurements. However, these reconstructions usually rely on assuming physical sparsity (i.e. few waves compose the sound field) or trait in the measured sound field, making the models less generalizable and problem specific. In this paper we introduce a method to reconstruct a sound field in an enclosure with the use of a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), which s new variants of the data distributions that it is trained upon. The goal of the proposed GAN model is to estimate the underlying distribution of plane waves in any source free region, and map these distributions from a stochastic, latent representation. A GAN is trained on a large number of synthesized sound fields represented by a random wave field and then tested on both simulated and real data sets, of lightly damped and reverberant rooms.

Cancerous Cells

The inhibition of healthy cells creating improper controlling process of the human body system indicates the occurrence of growth of cancerous cells. The cluster of such cells leads to the development of tumor. The observation of this type of abnormal skin pigmentation is done using an effective tool called Dermoscopy. However, these dermatoscopic images possess a great challenge for diagnosis. Considering the characteristics of dermatoscopic images, transfer learning is an appropriate approach of automatically classifying the images based on the respective categories. An automatic identification of skin cancer not only saves human life but also helps in detecting its growth at an earlier stage which saves medical practitioner’s effort and time. A newly predicted model has been proposed for classifying the skin cancer as benign or malignant by DCNN with transfer learning and its pre-trained models such as VGG 16, VGG 19, ResNet 50, ResNet 101, and Inception V3. The proposed methodology aims at examining the efficiency of pre-trained models and transfer learning approach for the classification tasks and opens new dimensions of research in the field of medicines using imaging technique which can be implementable in real-time applications.
