The detection of surface defects is very important for the quality improvement of steel plates. In actual production, as the steel plate production line runs faster, the steel surface defect detection algorithm is required to meet the requirements of real-time detection (less than 100 ms/image), and the detection accuracy is improved (at least 90%). In this paper, an improved multi-block local binary pattern (LBP) algorithm is proposed. This algorithm not only has the simplicity and efficiency of the LBP algorithm, but also finds a suitable scale to describe the defect features by changing the block sizes, thus ensuring high recognition accuracy. The experiment proves that the method satisfies the requirements of online real-time detection in terms of speed (63 ms/image), and surpasses the widely-used scale invariant feature transform (SIFT), speeded up robust features (SURF), gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and LBP algorithms in recognition accuracy (94.30%), which prove that the MB-LBP has practical application value in an online real-time detection system.

More than half of post-operative complications can be prevented, and operation performances can be improved based on the feedback gathered from operations or notifications of the risks during operations in real time. However, existing surgical analysis methods are limited, because they involve time-consuming processes and subjective opinions. Therefore, the detection of surgical instruments is necessary for (a) conducting objective analyses, or (b) providing risk notifications associated with a surgical procedure in real time. We propose a new real-time detection algorithm for detection of surgical instruments using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). This algorithm is based on an object detection system YOLO9000 and ensures continuity of detection of the surgical tools in successive imaging frames based on motion vector prediction. This method exhibits a constant performance irrespective of a surgical instrument class, while the mean average precision (mAP) of all the tools is 84.7, with a speed of 38 frames per second (FPS).

Defect detection is the most important step in the postpartum reprocessing of kiwifruit. However, there are some small defects difficult to detect. The accuracy and speed of existing detection algorithms are difficult to meet the requirements of real-time detection. For solving these problems, we developed a defect detection model based on YOLOv5, which is able to detect defects accurately and at a fast speed. The main contributions of this research are as follows: (1) a small object detection layer is added to improve the model’s ability to detect small defects; (2) we pay attention to the importance of different channels by embedding SELayer; (3) the loss function CIoU is introduced to make the regression more accurate; (4) under the prerequisite of no increase in training cost, we train our model based on transfer learning and use the CosineAnnealing algorithm to improve the effect. The results of the experiment show that the overall performance of the improved network YOLOv5-Ours is better than the original and mainstream detection algorithms. The [email protected] of YOLOv5-Ours has reached 94.7%, which was an improvement of nearly 9%, compared to the original algorithm. Our model only takes 0.1 s to detect a single image, which proves the effectiveness of the model. Therefore, YOLOv5-Ours can well meet the requirements of real-time detection and provides a robust strategy for the kiwi flaw detection system.


In this proposed system a digital imagefalsification can be identified using the combination of both adaptive over block based segmentation, feature keypointbased feature extraction algorithms(Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) and Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF)) and forgery region extraction algorithm. The proposed falsification detection algorithm comprises both block based falsification detection algorithm (adaptive over block based segmentation and block feature matching algorithm) and the keypoint based falsification detection algorithm(forgery region extraction algorithm). Adaptive over block based Segmentation algorithm adaptively segments the input digital image into separate(non overlapped) blocks in irregular manner. Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) algorithm and Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF) algorithms are used to draw out features from the segmentedblocks as a block features. Then the extracted features are matched with the feature points of other segmented block. If the feature key points are matched with any other feature point presents in the segmented blocks, then the matched feature points are marked as Labeled key Points (LKP), which can be doubted as a forged regions. Finally, the Forgery Region Extraction algorithm can be used to detect the forged region from the input digital image based on the extracted labeled feature points. The experimental outcomesdisplay that the novelfalsification detection system can accomplished the requirements compared with the existing digital imagefalsification detection methods

Currently, surface defect detection of stamping grinding flat parts is mainly undertaken through observation by the naked eye. In order to improve the automatic degree of surface defects detection in stamping grinding flat parts, a real-time detection system based on machine vision is designed. Under plane illumination mode, the whole region of the parts is clear and the outline is obvious, but the tiny defects are difficult to find; Under multi-angle illumination mode, the tiny defects of the parts can be highlighted. In view of the above situation, a lighting method combining plane illumination mode with multi-angle illumination mode is designed, and five kinds of defects are automatically detected by different detection methods. Firstly, the parts are located and segmented according to the plane light source image, and the defects are detected according to the gray anomaly. Secondly, according to the surface of the parts reflective characteristics, the influence of the reflection on the image is minimized by adjusting the exposure time of the camera, and the position and direction of the edge line of the gray anomaly region of the multi-angle light source image are used to determine whether the anomaly region is a defect. The experimental results demonstrate that the system has a high detection success rate, which can meet the real-time detection rEquation uirements of a factory.

Abstract Aiming at the problems of low accuracy and poor real-time performance of Yolo v3 algorithm in lane detection, a lane detection system based on improved Yolo v3 algorithm is proposed. Firstly, according to the characteristics of inconsistent vertical and horizontal distribution density of lane line pictures, the lane line pictures are divided into s * 2S grids; Secondly, the detection scale is adjusted to four detection scales, which is more suitable for small target detection such as lane line; Thirdly, the convolution layer in the original Yolo v3 algorithm is adjusted from 53 layers to 49 layers to simplify the network; Finally, the parameters such as cluster center distance and loss function are improved. The experimental results show that when using the improved detection algorithm for lane line detection, the average detection accuracy map value is 92.03% and the processing speed is 48 fps.Compared with the original Yolo v3 algorithm, it is significantly improved in detection accuracy and real-time performance.

Background: Valvular heart disease is a serious disease leading to mortality and increasing medical care cost. The aortic valve is the most common valve affected by this disease. Doctors rely on echocardiogram for diagnosing and evaluating valvular heart disease. However, the images from echocardiogram are poor in comparison to Computerized Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan. This study proposes the development of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) that can function optimally during a live echocardiographic examination for detection of the aortic valve. An automated detection system in an echocardiogram will improve the accuracy of medical diagnosis and can provide further medical analysis from the resulting detection. Methods: Two detection architectures, Single Shot Multibox Detector (SSD) and Faster Regional based Convolutional Neural Network (R-CNN) with various feature extractors were trained on echocardiography images from 33 patients. Thereafter, the models were tested on 10 echocardiography videos. Results: Faster R-CNN Inception v2 had shown the highest accuracy (98.6%) followed closely by SSD Mobilenet v2. In terms of speed, SSD Mobilenet v2 resulted in a loss of 46.81% in framesper- second (fps) during real-time detection but managed to perform better than the other neural network models. Additionally, SSD Mobilenet v2 used the least amount of Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) but the Central Processing Unit (CPU) usage was relatively similar throughout all models. Conclusion: Our findings provide a foundation for implementing a convolutional detection system to echocardiography for medical purposes.

As a critical component in the smart grid, the Distribution Terminal Unit (DTU) dynamically adjusts the running status of the entire smart grid based on the collected electrical parameters to ensure the safe and stable operation of the smart grid. However, as a real-time embedded device, DTU has not only resource constraints but also specific requirements on real-time performance, thus, the traditional anomaly detection method cannot be deployed. To detect the tamper of the program running on DTU, we proposed a power-based non-intrusive condition monitoring method that collects and analyzes the power consumption of DTU using power sensors and machine learning (ML) techniques, the feasibility of this approach is that the power consumption is closely related to the executing code in CPUs, that is when the execution code is tampered with, the power consumption changes accordingly. To validate this idea, we set up a testbed based on DTU and simulated four types of imperceptible attacks that change the code running in ARM and DSP processors, respectively. We generate representative features and select lightweight ML algorithms to detect these attacks. We finally implemented the detection system on the windows and ubuntu platform and validated its effectiveness. The results show that the detection accuracy is up to 99.98% in a non-intrusive and lightweight way.

YTNR (Yunnan Tongbiguan Nature Reserve) is located in the westernmost part of China’s tropical regions and is the only area in China with the tropical biota of the Irrawaddy River system. The reserve has abundant tropical flora and fauna resources. In order to realize the real-time detection of wild animals in this area, this paper proposes an improved YOLO (You only look once) network. The original YOLO model can achieve higher detection accuracy, but due to the complex model structure, it cannot achieve a faster detection speed on the CPU detection platform. Therefore, the lightweight network MobileNet is introduced to replace the backbone feature extraction network in YOLO, which realizes real-time detection on the CPU platform. In response to the difficulty in collecting wild animal image data, the research team deployed 50 high-definition cameras in the study area and conducted continuous observations for more than 1,000 hours. In the end, this research uses 1410 images of wildlife collected in the field and 1577 wildlife images from the internet to construct a research data set combined with the manual annotation of domain experts. At the same time, transfer learning is introduced to solve the problem of insufficient training data and the network is difficult to fit. The experimental results show that our model trained on a training set containing 2419 animal images has a mean average precision of 93.6% and an FPS (Frame Per Second) of 3.8 under the CPU. Compared with YOLO, the mean average precision is increased by 7.7%, and the FPS value is increased by 3.
