This work presents a table cleaning and inspection method using a Human Support Robot (HSR) which can operate in a typical food court setting. The HSR is able to perform a cleanliness inspection and also clean the food litter on the table by implementing a deep learning technique and planner framework. A lightweight Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) has been proposed to recognize the food litter on top of the table. In addition, the planner framework was proposed to HSR for accomplishing the table cleaning task which generates the cleaning path according to the detection of food litter and then the cleaning action is carried out. The effectiveness of the food litter detection module is verified with the cleanliness inspection task using Toyota HSR, and its detection results are verified with standard quality metrics. The experimental results show that the food litter detection module achieves an average of 96 % detection accuracy, which is more suitable for deploying the HSR robots for performing the cleanliness inspection and also helps to select the different cleaning modes. Further, the planner part has been tested through the table cleaning tasks. The experimental results show that the planner generated the cleaning path in real time and its generated path is optimal which reduces the cleaning time by grouping based cleaning action for removing the food litters from the table.

Face recognition is one of the well studied problems by researchers in computer visions.  Among the challenges of this task are the occurrence of different facial expressions like happy or sad, and different views of the images such as front and side views.  This paper experiments a publicly available dataset that consists of 200,000 images of celebrity faces. Deep Learning technique is gaining its popularity in computer vision and this paper applies this technique for face recognition problem.  One of the techniques under deep learning is Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).  There is also pre-trained CNN models that are AlexNet and GoogLeNet, which produce excellent accuracy results.  The experimental results indicate that AlexNet is better than basic CNN and GoogLeNet for face recognition.

With the ever-rising threat to security, multiple industries are always in search of safer communication techniques both in rest and transit. Multiple security institutions agree that any systems security can be modeled around three major concepts: Confidentiality, Availability, and Integrity. We try to reduce the holes in these concepts by developing a Deep Learning based Steganography technique. In our study, we have seen, data compression has to be at the heart of any sound steganography system. In this paper, we have shown that it is possible to compress and encode data efficiently to solve critical problems of steganography. The deep learning technique, which comprises an auto-encoder with Convolutional Neural Network as its building block, not only compresses the secret file but also learns how to hide the compressed data in the cover file efficiently. The proposed techniques can encode secret files of the same size as of cover, or in some sporadic cases, even larger files can be encoded. We have also shown that the same model architecture can theoretically be applied to any file type. Finally, we show that our proposed technique surreptitiously evades all popular steganalysis techniques.

The pavement inspection task, which mainly includes crack and garbage detection, is essential and carried out frequently. The human-based or dedicated system approach for inspection can be easily carried out by integrating with the pavement sweeping machines. This work proposes a deep learning-based pavement inspection framework for self-reconfigurable robot named Panthera. Semantic segmentation framework SegNet was adopted to segment the pavement region from other objects. Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) based object detection is used to detect and localize pavement defects and garbage. Furthermore, Mobile Mapping System (MMS) was adopted for the geotagging of the defects. The proposed system was implemented and tested with the Panthera robot having NVIDIA GPU cards. The experimental results showed that the proposed technique identifies the pavement defects and litters or garbage detection with high accuracy. The experimental results on the crack and garbage detection are presented. It is found that the proposed technique is suitable for deployment in real-time for garbage detection and, eventually, sweeping or cleaning tasks.

The revolutionary idea of the internet of things (IoT) architecture has gained enormous popularity over the last decade, resulting in an exponential growth in the IoT networks, connected devices, and the data processed therein. Since IoT devices generate and exchange sensitive data over the traditional internet, security has become a prime concern due to the generation of zero-day cyberattacks. A network-based intrusion detection system (NIDS) can provide the much-needed efficient security solution to the IoT network by protecting the network entry points through constant network traffic monitoring. Recent NIDS have a high false alarm rate (FAR) in detecting the anomalies, including the novel and zero-day anomalies. This paper proposes an efficient anomaly detection mechanism using mutual information (MI), considering a deep neural network (DNN) for an IoT network. A comparative analysis of different deep-learning models such as DNN, Convolutional Neural Network, Recurrent Neural Network, and its different variants, such as Gated Recurrent Unit and Long Short-term Memory is performed considering the IoT-Botnet 2020 dataset. Experimental results show the improvement of 0.57–2.6% in terms of the model’s accuracy, while at the same time reducing the FAR by 0.23–7.98% to show the effectiveness of the DNN-based NIDS model compared to the well-known deep learning models. It was also observed that using only the 16–35 best numerical features selected using MI instead of 80 features of the dataset result in almost negligible degradation in the model’s performance but helped in decreasing the overall model’s complexity. In addition, the overall accuracy of the DL-based models is further improved by almost 0.99–3.45% in terms of the detection accuracy considering only the top five categorical and numerical features.

Bridge management and maintenance work is an important part for the assessment the health state of bridge. The conventional management and maintenance work mainly relied on experienced engineering staffs by visual inspection and filling in survey forms. However, the human-based visual inspection is a difficult and time-consuming task and its detection results significantly rely on subjective judgement of human inspectors. To address the drawbacks of human-based visual inspection method, this paper proposes an image-based comprehensive maintenance and inspection method for bridges using deep learning. To classify the types of bridges, a convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier established by fine-turning the AlexNet is trained, validated and tested using 3832 images with three types of bridges (arch, suspension and cable-stayed bridge). For the recognition of bridge components (tower and deck of bridges), a Faster Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Faster R-CNN) based on modified ZF-net is trained, validated and tested by utilizing 600 bridge images. To implement the strategy of a sliding window technique for the crack detection, another CNN from fine-turning the GoogLeNet is trained, validated and tested by employing a databank with cropping 1455 raw concrete images into 60000 intact and cracked images. The performance of the trained CNNs and Faster R-CNN is tested on some new images which are not used for training and validation processes. The test results substantiate the proposed method can indeed recognize the types and components and detect cracks for a bridges.

Grasp detection based on convolutional neural network has gained some achievements. However, overfitting of multilayer convolutional neural network still exists and leads to poor detection precision. To acquire high detection accuracy, a single target grasp detection network that generalizes the fitting of angle and position, based on the convolution neural network, is put forward here. The proposed network regards the image as input and grasping parameters including angle and position as output, with the detection manner of end-to-end. Particularly, preprocessing dataset is to achieve the full coverage to input of model and transfer learning is to avoid overfitting of network. Importantly, a series of experimental results indicate that, for single object grasping, our network has good detection results and high accuracy, which proves that the proposed network has strong generalization in direction and category.

Over the recent years, the term deep learning has been considered as one of the primary choice for handling huge amount of data. Having deeper hidden layers, it surpasses classical methods for detection of outlier in wireless sensor network. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a biologically inspired computational model which is one of the most popular deep learning approaches. It comprises neurons that self-optimize through learning. EEG generally known as Electroencephalography is a tool used for investigation of brain function and EEG signal gives time-series data as output. In this paper, we propose a state-of-the-art technique designed by processing the time-series data generated by the sensor nodes stored in a large dataset into discrete one-second frames and these frames are projected onto a 2D map images. A convolutional neural network (CNN) is then trained to classify these frames. The result improves detection accuracy and encouraging.

The current automatic packaging process is complex, requires high professional knowledge, poor universality, and difficult to apply in multi-objective and complex background. In view of this problem, automatic packaging optimization algorithm has been widely paid attention to. However, the traditional automatic packaging detection accuracy is low, the practicability is poor. Therefore, a semi-supervised detection method of automatic packaging curve based on deep learning and semi-supervised learning is proposed. Deep learning is used to extract features and posterior probability to classify unlabeled data. KDD CUP99 data set was used to verify the accuracy of the algorithm. Experimental results show that this method can effectively improve the performance of automatic packaging curve semi-supervised detection system.
