There is no doubt that CNN has made remarkable technological developments as the core technology of computer vision, but the pooling technique used for CNN has its own issues. This study set out to solve the issues of the pooling technique by proposing conditional min pooling and a restructured convolutional neural network that improved the pooling structure to ensure efficient use of the conditional min pooling. Some Caltech 101 and crawling data were used to test the performance of the conditional min pooling and restructured convolutional neural network. The pooling performance test based on Caltech 101 increased in accuracy by 0.16~0.52% and decreased in loss by 19.98~28.71% compared with the old pooling technique. The restructured convolutional neural network did not have a big improvement in performance compared to the old algorithm, but it provided significant outcomes with similar performance results to the algorithm. This paper presents the results that the loss rate was reduced rather than the accuracy rate, and this result was achieved without the improvement of convolution.

Abstrak— At present technological developments, especially in the field of computer vision, are showing significant performance such as the application of convolutional neural networks that have a very high degree of accuracy, for example improving video quality which recently has image restoration such as super resolution (VSR) thanks to deep learning with the aim of helping produce better visual videos. The use of video cameras for mobile devices is now increasingly highly developed. Nowadays mobile devices are experiencing a rapid increase in quality especially in cameras. However, physical limitations such as the small sensor size, compact lens and the lack of supporting hardware can prevent cellular devices from achieving good video camera quality results. For that many method approaches are applied, one of which is the CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) method. This method can improve the image of video recordings that have poor quality.

Objective. To investigate the application value of a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) model for cytological assessment of thyroid nodules. Methods. 117 patients with thyroid nodules who underwent thyroid cytology examination in the Affiliated People’s Hospital of Ningbo University between January 2017 and December 2019 were included in this study. 100 papillary thyroid cancer samples and 100 nonmalignant samples were collected respectively. The sample images were translated vertically and horizontally. Thus, 900 images were separately created in the vertical and horizontal directions. The sample images were randomly divided into training samples (n = 1260) and test samples (n = 540) at the ratio of 7 : 3 per the training sample to test sample. According to the training samples, the pretrained deep convolutional neural network architecture Resnet50 was trained and fine-tuned. A convolutional neural network-based computer-aided detection (CNN-CAD) system was constructed to perform full-length scan of the test sample slices. The ability of CNN-CAD to screen malignant tumors was analyzed using the threshold setting method. Eighty pathological images were collected from patients who received treatment between January 2020 and May 2020 and used to verify the value of CNN in the screening of malignant thyroid nodules as verification set. Results. With the number of iterations increasing, the training and verification loss of CNN model gradually decreased and tended to be stable, and the training and verification accuracy of CNN model gradually increased and tended to be stable. The average loss rate of training samples determined by the CNN model was (22.35 ± 0.62) %, and the average loss rate of test samples determined by the CNN model was (26.41 ± 3.37) %. The average accuracy rate of training samples determined by the CNN model was (91.04 ± 2.11) %, and the average accuracy rate of test samples determined by the CNN model was (91.26 ± 1.02)%. Conclusion. A CNN model exhibits a high value in the cytological diagnosis of thyroid diseases which can be used for the cytological diagnosis of malignant thyroid tumor in the clinic.

The strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) is a high-value crop with an annual cultivated area of ~500 ha in Taiwan. Over 90% of strawberry cultivation is in Miaoli County. Unfortunately, various diseases significantly decrease strawberry production. The leaf and fruit disease became an epidemic in 1986. From 2010 to 2016, anthracnose crown rot caused the loss of 30–40% of seedlings and ~20% of plants after transplanting. The automation of agriculture and image recognition techniques are indispensable for detecting strawberry diseases. We developed an image recognition technique for the detection of strawberry diseases using a convolutional neural network (CNN) model. CNN is a powerful deep learning approach that has been used to enhance image recognition. In the proposed technique, two different datasets containing the original and feature images are used for detecting the following strawberry diseases—leaf blight, gray mold, and powdery mildew. Specifically, leaf blight may affect the crown, leaf, and fruit and show different symptoms. By using the ResNet50 model with a training period of 20 epochs for 1306 feature images, the proposed CNN model achieves a classification accuracy rate of 100% for leaf blight cases affecting the crown, leaf, and fruit; 98% for gray mold cases, and 98% for powdery mildew cases. In 20 epochs, the accuracy rate of 99.60% obtained from the feature image dataset was higher than that of 1.53% obtained from the original one. This proposed model provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective technique for detecting strawberry diseases.

Abstract Various types of Indonesian coffee are already popular internationally. Recently, there are still not many methods to classify the types of typical Indonesian coffee. Computer vision is a non-destructive method for classifying agricultural products. This study aimed to classify three types of Indonesian Arabica coffee beans, i.e., Gayo Aceh, Kintamani Bali, and Toraja Tongkonan, using computer vision. The classification method used was the AlexNet convolutional neural network with sensitivity analysis using several variations of the optimizer such as SGDm, Adam, and RMSProp and the learning rate of 0.00005 and 0.0001. Each type of coffee used 500 data for training and validation with the distribution of 70% training and 30% validation. The results showed that all AlexNet models achieved a perfect validation accuracy value of 100% in 1,040 iterations. This study also used 100 testing-set data on each type of coffee bean. In the testing confusion matrix, the accuracy reached 99.6%.

Abstract In this paper, I proposed an iris recognition system by using deep learning via neural networks (CNN). Although CNN is used for machine learning, the recognition is achieved by building a non-trained CNN network with multiple layers. The main objective of the code the test pictures’ category (aka person name) with a high accuracy rate after having extracted enough features from training pictures of the same category which are obtained from a that I added to the code. I used IITD iris which included 10 iris pictures for 223 people.
