Hashtag-based image descriptions are a popular approach for labeling images on social media platforms. In practice, images are often described by more than one hashtag. Due the rapid development of deep neural networks specialized in image embedding and classification, it is now possible to generate those descriptions automatically. In this paper we propose a novel Voting Deep Neural Network with Associative Rules Mining (VDNN-ARM) algorithm that can be used to solve multi-label hashtag recommendation problems. VDNN-ARM is a machine learning approach that utilizes an ensemble of deep neural networks to generate image features, which are then classified to potential hashtag sets. Proposed hashtags are then filtered by a voting schema. The remaining hashtags might be included in a final recommended hashtags dataset by application of associative rules mining, which explores dependencies in certain hashtag groups. Our approach is evaluated on a HARRISON benchmark dataset as a multi-label classification problem. The highest values of our evaluation parameters, including precision, recall, and accuracy, have been obtained for VDNN-ARM with a confidence threshold 0.95. VDNN-ARM outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms, including VGG-Object + VGG-Scene precision by 17.91% as well as ensemble–FFNN (intersection) recall by 32.33% and accuracy by 27.00%. Both the dataset and all source codes we implemented for this research are available for download, and our results can be reproduced.

AbstractDeep neural networks are among the most widely applied machine learning tools showing outstanding performance in a broad range of tasks. We present a method for folding a deep neural network of arbitrary size into a single neuron with multiple time-delayed feedback loops. This single-neuron deep neural network comprises only a single nonlinearity and appropriately adjusted modulations of the feedback signals. The network states emerge in time as a temporal unfolding of the neuron’s dynamics. By adjusting the feedback-modulation within the loops, we adapt the network’s connection weights. These connection weights are determined via a back-propagation algorithm, where both the delay-induced and local network connections must be taken into account. Our approach can fully represent standard Deep Neural Networks (DNN), encompasses sparse DNNs, and extends the DNN concept toward dynamical systems implementations. The new method, which we call Folded-in-time DNN (Fit-DNN), exhibits promising performance in a set of benchmark tasks.

BACKGROUND: The distribution of pulmonary vessels in computed tomography (CT) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) images of lung is important for diagnosing disease, formulating surgical plans and pulmonary research. PURPOSE: Based on the pulmonary vascular segmentation task of International Symposium on Image Computing and Digital Medicine 2020 challenge, this paper reviews 12 different pulmonary vascular segmentation algorithms of lung CT and CTA images and then objectively evaluates and compares their performances. METHODS: First, we present the annotated reference dataset of lung CT and CTA images. A subset of the dataset consisting 7,307 slices for training and 3,888 slices for testing was made available for participants. Second, by analyzing the performance comparison of different convolutional neural networks from 12 different institutions for pulmonary vascular segmentation, the reasons for some defects and improvements are summarized. The models are mainly based on U-Net, Attention, GAN, and multi-scale fusion network. The performance is measured in terms of Dice coefficient, over segmentation ratio and under segmentation rate. Finally, we discuss several proposed methods to improve the pulmonary vessel segmentation results using deep neural networks. RESULTS: By comparing with the annotated ground truth from both lung CT and CTA images, most of 12 deep neural network algorithms do an admirable job in pulmonary vascular extraction and segmentation with the dice coefficients ranging from 0.70 to 0.85. The dice coefficients for the top three algorithms are about 0.80. CONCLUSIONS: Study results show that integrating methods that consider spatial information, fuse multi-scale feature map, or have an excellent post-processing to deep neural network training and optimization process are significant for further improving the accuracy of pulmonary vascular segmentation.

Object classification problem is essential in many applications nowadays. Human can easily classify objects in unconstrained environments easily. Classical classification techniques were far away from human performance. Thus, researchers try to mimic the human visual system till they reached the deep neural networks. This chapter gives a review and analysis in the field of the deep convolutional neural network usage in object classification under constrained and unconstrained environment. The chapter gives a brief review on the classical techniques of object classification and the development of bio-inspired computational models from neuroscience till the creation of deep neural networks. A review is given on the constrained environment issues: the hardware computing resources and memory, the object appearance and background, and the training and processing time. Datasets that are used to test the performance are analyzed according to the images environmental conditions, besides the dataset biasing is discussed.

Abstract Editor’s Perspective What We Already Know about This Topic What This Article Tells Us That Is New Background The authors tested the hypothesis that deep neural networks trained on intraoperative features can predict postoperative in-hospital mortality. Methods The data used to train and validate the algorithm consists of 59,985 patients with 87 features extracted at the end of surgery. Feed-forward networks with a logistic output were trained using stochastic gradient descent with momentum. The deep neural networks were trained on 80% of the data, with 20% reserved for testing. The authors assessed improvement of the deep neural network by adding American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status Classification and robustness of the deep neural network to a reduced feature set. The networks were then compared to ASA Physical Status, logistic regression, and other published clinical scores including the Surgical Apgar, Preoperative Score to Predict Postoperative Mortality, Risk Quantification Index, and the Risk Stratification Index. Results In-hospital mortality in the training and test sets were 0.81% and 0.73%. The deep neural network with a reduced feature set and ASA Physical Status classification had the highest area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.91 (95% CI, 0.88 to 0.93). The highest logistic regression area under the curve was found with a reduced feature set and ASA Physical Status (0.90, 95% CI, 0.87 to 0.93). The Risk Stratification Index had the highest area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, at 0.97 (95% CI, 0.94 to 0.99). Conclusions Deep neural networks can predict in-hospital mortality based on automatically extractable intraoperative data, but are not (yet) superior to existing methods.

The task of counting the number of people is relevant when conducting various types of events, which may include seminars, lectures, conferences, meetings, etc. Instead of monotonous manual counting of participants, it is much more effective to use facial recognition technology, which makes it possible not only to quickly count those present, but also to recognize each of them, which makes it possible to conduct further analysis of this data, identify patterns in them and predict. The research conducted in this paper determines the quality assessment of the use of facial recognition technology in images andvideo streams, based on the use of a deep neural network, to solve the problem of automating attendance tracking.

Abstract Recent rapid progress in deep neural network techniques has allowed recognition and classification of various objects, often exceeding the performance of the human eye. In plant biology and crop sciences, some deep neural network frameworks have been applied mainly for effective and rapid phenotyping. In this study, beyond simple optimizations of phenotyping, we propose an application of deep neural networks to make an image-based internal disorder diagnosis that is hard even for experts, and to visualize the reasons behind each diagnosis to provide biological interpretations. Here, we exemplified classification of calyx-end cracking in persimmon fruit by using five convolutional neural network models with various layer structures and examined potential analytical options involved in the diagnostic qualities. With 3,173 visible RGB images from the fruit apex side, the neural networks successfully made the binary classification of each degree of disorder, with up to 90% accuracy. Furthermore, feature visualizations, such as Grad-CAM and LRP, visualize the regions of the image that contribute to the diagnosis. They suggest that specific patterns of color unevenness, such as in the fruit peripheral area, can be indexes of calyx-end cracking. These results not only provided novel insights into indexes of fruit internal disorders but also proposed the potential applicability of deep neural networks in plant biology.
