We introduce here the Grape Berries Counting Net (GBCNet), a tool for accurate fruit yield estimation from smartphone cameras, by adapting Deep Learning algorithms originally developed for crowd counting. We test GBCNet using cross-validation procedure on two original datasets CR1 and CR2 of grape pictures taken in-field before veraison. A total of 35,668 berries have been manually annotated for the task. GBCNet achieves good performances on both the seven grape varieties dataset CR1, although with a different accuracy level depending on the variety, and on the single variety dataset CR2: in particular Mean Average Error (MAE) ranges from 0.85% for Pinot Gris to 11.73% for Marzemino on CR1 and reaches 7.24% on the Teroldego CR2 dataset.

This is the second of two papers that use off-training set (OTS) error to investigate the assumption-free relationship between learning algorithms. The first paper discusses a particular set of ways to compare learning algorithms, according to which there are no distinctions between learning algorithms. This second paper concentrates on different ways of comparing learning algorithms from those used in the first paper. In particular this second paper discusses the associated a priori distinctions that do exist between learning algorithms. In this second paper it is shown, loosely speaking, that for loss functions other than zero-one (e.g., quadratic loss), there are a priori distinctions between algorithms. However, even for such loss functions, it is shown here that any algorithm is equivalent on average to its “randomized” version, and in this still has no first principles justification in terms of average error. Nonetheless, as this paper discusses, it may be that (for example) cross-validation has better head-to-head minimax properties than “anti-cross-validation” (choose the learning algorithm with the largest cross-validation error). This may be true even for zero-one loss, a loss function for which the notion of “randomization” would not be relevant. This paper also analyzes averages over hypotheses rather than targets. Such analyses hold for all possible priors over targets. Accordingly they prove, as a particular example, that cross-validation cannot be justified as a Bayesian procedure. In fact, for a very natural restriction of the class of learning algorithms, one should use anti-cross-validation rather than cross-validation (!).

Abstract By the merits of self-stability and low energy consumption, high temperature superconducting (HTS) maglev has the potential to become a novel type of transportation mode. As a key index to guarantee the lateral self-stability of HTS maglev, guiding force has strong non-linearity and is determined by multitudinous factors, and these complexities impede its further researches. Compared to traditional finite element and polynomial fitting method, the prosperity of deep learning algorithms could provide another guiding force prediction approach, but the verification of this approach is still blank. Therefore, this paper establishes 5 different neural network models (RBF, DNN, CNN, RNN, LSTM) to predict HTS maglev guiding force, and compares their prediction efficiency based on 3720 pieces of collected data. Meanwhile, two adaptively iterative algorithms for parameters matrix and learning rate adjustment are proposed, which could effectively reduce computing time and unnecessary iterations. And according to the results, it is revealed that, the DNN model shows the best fitting goodness, while the LSTM model displays the smoothest fitting curve on guiding force prediction. Based on this discovery, the effects of learning rate and iterations on prediction accuracy of the constructed DNN model are studied. And the learning rate and iterations at the highest guiding force prediction accuracy are 0.00025 and 90000, respectively. Moreover, the K-fold cross validation method is also applied to this DNN model, whose result manifests the generalization and robustness of this DNN model. The imperative of K-fold cross validation method to ensure universality of guiding force prediction model is likewise assessed. This paper firstly combines HTS maglev guiding force prediction with deep learning algorithms considering different field cooling height, real-time magnetic flux density, liquid nitrogen temperature and motion direction of bulk. Additionally, this paper gives a convenient and efficient method for HTS guiding force prediction and parameter optimization.

AbstractDeep learning algorithms have tremendous potential utility in the classification of biomedical images. For example, images acquired with retinal optical coherence tomography (OCT) can be used to accurately classify patients with adult macular degeneration (AMD), and distinguish them from healthy control patients. However, previous research has suggested that large amounts of data are required in order to train deep learning algorithms, because of the large number of parameters that need to be fit. Here, we show that a moderate amount of data (data from approximately 1,800 patients) may be enough to reach close-to-maximal performance in the classification of AMD patients from OCT images. These results suggest that deep learning algorithms can be trained on moderate amounts of data, provided that images are relatively homogenous, and the effective number of parameters is sufficiently small. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in this application, cross-validation with a separate test set that is not used in any part of the training does not differ substantially from cross-validation with a validation data-set used to determine the optimal stopping point for training.

AbstractUrban area mapping is an important application of remote sensing which aims at both estimation and change in land cover under the urban area. A major challenge being faced while analyzing Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) based remote sensing data is that there is a lot of similarity between highly vegetated urban areas and oriented urban targets with that of actual vegetation. This similarity between some urban areas and vegetation leads to misclassification of the urban area into forest cover. The present work is a precursor study for the dual-frequency L and S-band NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission and aims at minimizing the misclassification of such highly vegetated and oriented urban targets into vegetation class with the help of deep learning. In this study, three machine learning algorithms Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) have been implemented along with a deep learning model DeepLabv3+ for semantic segmentation of Polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) data. It is a general perception that a large dataset is required for the successful implementation of any deep learning model but in the field of SAR based remote sensing, a major issue is the unavailability of a large benchmark labeled dataset for the implementation of deep learning algorithms from scratch. In current work, it has been shown that a pre-trained deep learning model DeepLabv3+ outperforms the machine learning algorithms for land use and land cover (LULC) classification task even with a small dataset using transfer learning. The highest pixel accuracy of 87.78% and overall pixel accuracy of 85.65% have been achieved with DeepLabv3+ and Random Forest performs best among the machine learning algorithms with overall pixel accuracy of 77.91% while SVM and KNN trail with an overall accuracy of 77.01% and 76.47% respectively. The highest precision of 0.9228 is recorded for the urban class for semantic segmentation task with DeepLabv3+ while machine learning algorithms SVM and RF gave comparable results with a precision of 0.8977 and 0.8958 respectively.
