In this paper, Computer Vision (CV) sensing technology based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is introduced to process topographic maps for predicting wireless signal propagation models, which are applied in the field of forestry security monitoring. In this way, the terrain-related radio propagation characteristic including diffraction loss and shadow fading correlation distance can be predicted or extracted accurately and efficiently. Two data sets are generated for the two prediction tasks, respectively, and are used to train the CNN. To enhance the efficiency for the CNN to predict diffraction losses, multiple output values for different locations on the map are obtained in parallel by the CNN to greatly boost the calculation speed. The proposed scheme achieved a good performance in terms of prediction accuracy and efficiency. For the diffraction loss prediction task, 50% of the normalized prediction error was less than 0.518%, and 95% of the normalized prediction error was less than 8.238%. For the correlation distance extraction task, 50% of the normalized prediction error was less than 1.747%, and 95% of the normalized prediction error was less than 6.423%. Moreover, diffraction losses at 100 positions were predicted simultaneously in one run of CNN under the settings in this paper, for which the processing time of one map is about 6.28 ms, and the average processing time of one location point can be as low as 62.8 us. This paper shows that our proposed CV sensing technology is more efficient in processing geographic information in the target area. Combining a convolutional neural network to realize the close coupling of a prediction model and geographic information, it improves the efficiency and accuracy of prediction.

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%.

<p class="Abstrak">Cuaca merupakan faktor penting yang dipertimbangkan untuk berbagai pengambilan keputusan. Klasifikasi cuaca manual oleh manusia membutuhkan waktu yang lama dan inkonsistensi. <em>Computer vision</em> adalah cabang ilmu yang digunakan komputer untuk mengenali atau melakukan klasifikasi citra. Hal ini dapat membantu pengembangan <em>self autonomous machine</em> agar tidak bergantung pada koneksi internet dan dapat melakukan kalkulasi sendiri secara <em>real time</em>. Terdapat beberapa algoritma klasifikasi citra populer yaitu K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), dan Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). KNN dan SVM merupakan algoritma klasifikasi dari <em>Machine Learning</em> sedangkan CNN merupakan algoritma klasifikasi dari Deep Neural Network. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan performa dari tiga algoritma tersebut sehingga diketahui berapa gap performa diantara ketiganya. Arsitektur uji coba yang dilakukan adalah menggunakan 5 cross validation. Beberapa parameter digunakan untuk mengkonfigurasikan algoritma KNN, SVM, dan CNN. Dari hasil uji coba yang dilakukan CNN memiliki performa terbaik dengan akurasi 0.942, precision 0.943, recall 0.942, dan F1 Score 0.942.</p><p class="Abstrak"> </p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p class="Abstract"><em>Weather is an important factor that is considered for various decision making.

Vehicle-animal collisions represent a serious problem in roadway infrastructure. To avoid these roadway collisions, different mitigation systems have been applied in various regions of the world. In this article, a system for detecting animals on highways is presented using computer vision and machine learning algorithms. The models were trained to classify two groups of animals: capybaras and donkeys. Two variants of the convolutional neural network called Yolo (You only look once) were used, Yolov4 and Yolov4-tiny (a lighter version of the network). The training was carried out using pre-trained models. Detection tests were performed on 147 images. The accuracy results obtained were 84.87% and 79.87% for Yolov4 and Yolov4-tiny, respectively. The proposed system has the potential to improve road safety by reducing or preventing accidents with animals.
