Scene or place classification is one of the important problems in image and video search and recommendation systems. Humans can understand the scene they are located, but it is difficult for machines to do it. Considering a scene image which has several objects, humans recognize the scene based on these objects, especially background objects. According to this observation, we propose an efficient scene classification algorithm for three different classes by detecting objects in the scene. We use pre-trained semantic segmentation model to extract objects from an image. After that, we construct a weight matrix to determine a scene class better. Finally, we classify an image into one of three scene classes (i.e., indoor, nature, city) by using the designed weighting matrix. The performance of our scheme outperforms several classification methods using convolutional neural networks (CNNs), such as VGG, Inception, ResNet, ResNeXt, Wide-ResNet, DenseNet, and MnasNet. The proposed model achieves 90.8% of verification accuracy and improves over 2.8% of the accuracy when comparing to the existing CNN-based methods.

Some text classification methods don’t work well on short texts due to the data sparsity. What’s more, they don’t fully exploit context-relevant knowledge. In order to tackle these problems, we propose a neural network to incorporate context-relevant knowledge into a convolutional neural network for short text classification. Our model consists of two modules. The first module utilizes two layers to extract concept and context features respectively and then employs an attention layer to extract those context-relevant concepts. The second module utilizes a convolutional neural network to extract high-level features from the word and the contextrelevant concept features. The experimental results on three datasets show that our proposed model outperforms the stateof-the-art models.

AbstractConvolutional neural networks were used for multiclass segmentation in thermal infrared face analysis. The principle is based on existing image-to-image translation approaches, where each pixel in an image is assigned to a class label. We show that established networks architectures can be trained for the task of multiclass face analysis in thermal infrared. Created class annotations consisted of pixel-accurate locations of different face classes. Subsequently, the trained network can segment an acquired unknown infrared face image into the defined classes. Furthermore, face classification in live image acquisition is shown, in order to be able to display the relative temperature in real-time from the learned areas. This allows a pixel-accurate temperature face analysis e.g. for infection detection like Covid-19. At the same time our approach offers the advantage of concentrating on the relevant areas of the face. Areas of the face irrelevant for the relative temperature calculation or accessories such as glasses, masks and jewelry are not considered. A custom database was created to train the network. The results were quantitatively evaluated with the intersection over union (IoU) metric. The methodology shown can be transferred to similar problems for more quantitative thermography tasks like in materials characterization or quality control in production.

Pattern classification is related with the automatic finding of regularities in dataset through the utilization of various learning techniques. Thus, the classification of the objects into a set of categories or classes is provided. This study is undertaken to evaluate deep learning methodologies to the classification of stock patterns. In order to classify patterns that are obtained from stock charts, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and long-short term memory networks (LSTMs) are employed. To demonstrate the efficiency of proposed model in categorizing patterns, hand-crafted image dataset is constructed from stock charts in Istanbul Stock Exchange and NASDAQ Stock Exchange. Experimental results show that the usage of convolutional neural networks exhibits superior classification success in recognizing patterns compared to the other deep learning methodologies.
