Propagation Of Light

Multimode fibers are regarded as the key technology for the steady increase in data rates in optical communication. However, light propagation in multimode fibers is complex and can lead to distortions in the transmission of information. Therefore, strategies to control the propagation of light should be developed. These strategies include the measurement of the amplitude and phase of the light field after propagation through the fiber. This is usually done with holographic approaches. In this paper, we discuss the use of a deep neural network to determine the amplitude and phase information from simple intensity-only camera images. A new type of training was developed, which is much more robust and precise than conventional training data designs. We show that the performance of the deep neural network is comparable to digital holography, but requires significantly smaller efforts. The fast characterization of multimode fibers is particularly suitable for high-performance applications like cyberphysical systems in the internet of things.

Gradient Descent Algorithm

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are being widely utilized for various missions: in both civilian and military sectors. Many of these missions demand UAVs to acquire artificial intelligence about the environments they are navigating in. This perception can be realized by training a computing machine to classify objects in the environment. One of the well known machine training approaches is supervised deep learning, which enables a machine to classify objects. However, supervised deep learning comes with huge sacrifice in terms of time and computational resources. Collecting big input data, pre-training processes, such as labeling training data, and the need for a high performance computer for training are some of the challenges that supervised deep learning poses. To address these setbacks, this study proposes mission specific input data augmentation techniques and the design of light-weight deep neural network architecture that is capable of real-time object classification. Semi-direct visual odometry (SVO) data of augmented images are used to train the network for object classification. Ten classes of 10,000 different images in each class were used as input data where 80% were for training the network and the remaining 20% were used for network validation. For the optimization of the designed deep neural network, a sequential gradient descent algorithm was implemented. This algorithm has the advantage of handling redundancy in the data more efficiently than other algorithms.

AbstractWith the goal of ultimate control over the light propagation, photonic crystals currently represent the primary building blocks for novel nanophotonic devices. Bloch surface waves (BSWs) in periodic dielectric multilayer structures with a surface defect is a well-known phenomenon, which implies new opportunities for controlling the light propagation and has many applications in the physical and biological science. However, most of the reported structures based on BSWs require depositing a large number of alternating layers or exploiting a large refractive index (RI) contrast between the materials constituting the multilayer structure, thereby increasing the complexity and costs of manufacturing. The combination of fiber–optic-based platforms with nanotechnology is opening the opportunity for the development of high-performance photonic devices that enhance the light-matter interaction in a strong way compared to other optical platforms. Here, we report a BSW-supporting platform that uses geometrically modified commercial optical fibers such as D-shaped optical fibers, where a few-layer structure is deposited on its flat surface using metal oxides with a moderate difference in RI. In this novel fiber optic platform, BSWs are excited through the evanescent field of the core-guided fundamental mode, which indicates that the structure proposed here can be used as a sensing probe, along with other intrinsic properties of fiber optic sensors, as lightness, multiplexing capacity and easiness of integration in an optical network. As a demonstration, fiber optic BSW excitation is shown to be suitable for measuring RI variations. The designed structure is easy to manufacture and could be adapted to a wide range of applications in the fields of telecommunications, environment, health, and material characterization.

Scanned Documents

<div>There are millions of scanned documents worldwide in around 4 thousand languages. Searching for information in a scanned document requires a text layer to be available and indexed. Preparation of a text layer requires recognition of character and sub-region patterns and associating with a human interpretation. Developing an optical character recognition (OCR) system for each and every language is a very difficult task if not impossible. There is a strong need for systems that add on top of the existing OCR technologies by learning from them and unifying disparate multitude of many a system. In this regard, we propose an algorithm that leverages the fact that we are dealing with scanned documents of handwritten text regions from across diverse domains and language settings. We observe that the text regions have consistent bounding box sizes and any large font or tiny font scenarios can be handled in preprocessing or postprocessing phases. The image subregions are smaller in size in scanned text documents compared to subregions formed by common objects in general purpose images. We propose and validate the hypothesis that a much simpler convolution neural network (CNN) having very few layers and less number of filters can be used for detecting individual subregion classes. For detection of several hundreds of classes, multiple such simpler models can be pooled to operate simultaneously on a document. The advantage of going by pools of subregion specific models is the ability to deal with incremental addition of hundreds of newer classes over time, without disturbing the previous models in the continual learning scenario. Such an approach has distinctive advantage over using a single monolithic model where subregions classes share and interfere via a bulky common neural network. We report here an efficient algorithm for building a subregion specific lightweight CNN models. The training data for the CNN proposed, requires engineering synthetic data points that consider both pattern of interest and non-patterns as well. We propose and validate the hypothesis that an image canvas in which optimal amount of pattern and non-pattern can be formulated using a means squared error loss function to influence filter for training from the data. The CNN hence trained has the capability to identify the character-object in presence of several other objects on a generalized test image of a scanned document. In this setting some of the key observations are in a CNN, learning a filter depends not only on the abundance of patterns of interest but also on the presence of a non-pattern context. Our experiments have led to some of the key observations - (i) a pattern cannot be over-expressed in isolation, (ii) a pattern cannot be under-xpressed as well, (iii) a non-pattern can be of salt and pepper type noise and finally (iv) it is sufficient to provide a non-pattern context to a modest representation of a pattern to result in strong individual sub-region class models. We have carried out studies and reported \textit{mean average precision} scores on various data sets including (1) MNIST digits(95.77), (2) E-MNIST capital alphabet(81.26), (3) EMNIST small alphabet(73.32) (4) Kannada digits(95.77), (5) Kannada letters(90.34), (6) Devanagari letters(100) (7) Telugu words(93.20) (8) Devanagari words(93.20) and also on medical prescriptions and observed high-performance metrics of mean average precision over 90%. The algorithm serves as a kernel in the automatic annotation of digital documents in diverse scenarios such as annotation of ancient manuscripts and hand-written health records.</div>

This paper proposes a deep neural network (DNN)-based method for predicting ore production by truck-haulage systems in open-pit mines. The proposed method utilizes two DNN models that are designed to predict ore production during the morning and afternoon haulage sessions, respectively. The configuration of the input nodes of the DNN models is based on truck-haulage conditions and corresponding operation times. To verify the efficacy of the proposed method, training data for the DNN models were generated by processing packet data collected over the two-month period December 2018 to January 2019. Subsequently, following training under different hidden-layer conditions, it was observed that the prediction accuracy of morning ore production was highest when the number of hidden layers and number of corresponding nodes were four and 50, respectively. The corresponding values of the determination coefficient and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) were 0.99% and 4.78%, respectively. Further, the prediction accuracy of afternoon ore production was highest when the number of hidden layers was four and the corresponding number of nodes was 50. This yielded determination coefficient and MAPE values of 0.99% and 5.26%, respectively.

When attempting to apply a large-scale database that holds the behavioral intelligence training data of deep neural networks, the classification accuracy of the artificial intelligence algorithm needs to reflect the behavioral characteristics of the individual. When a change in behavior is recognized, that is, a feedback model based on a data connection model is applied, an analysis of time series data is performed by extracting feature vectors and interpolating data in a deep neural network to overcome the limitations of the existing statistical analysis. Using the results of the first feedback model as inputs to the deep neural network and, furthermore, as the input values of the second feedback model, and interpolating the behavioral intelligence data, that is, context awareness and lifelog data, including physical activities, involves applying the most appropriate conditions. The results of this study show that this method effectively improves the accuracy of the artificial intelligence results. In this paper, through an experiment, after extracting the feature vector of a deep neural network and restoring the missing value, the classification accuracy was verified to improve by about 20% on average. At the same time, by adding behavioral intelligence data to the time series data, a new data connection model, the Deep Neural Network Feedback Model, was proposed, and it was verified that the classification accuracy can be improved by about 8 to 9% on average. Based on the hypothesis, the F (X′) = X model was applied to thoroughly classify the training data set and test data set to present a symmetrical balance between the data connection model and the context-aware data. In addition, behavioral activity data were extrapolated in terms of context-aware and forecasting perspectives to prove the results of the experiment.
