LAP effectively reduces the total number of parameters of the model, thereby preventing overfitting effectively while retaining more features from high-level feature maps. Additionally, it increases the fitting speed of the model. We selected the ISIC skin cancer dataset, then examined the performances of three pooling methods: LAP, GAP and Flatten, on a customized CNN model. In addition, we analyzed the fitting degree when the epoch was 100. The experimental results show that, the degree of overfitting using LAP is greatly reduced when compared with Flatten. Compared with GAP, LAP is better and faster in extracting features and fitting the training data. Both GAP and LAP demonstrate good generalization abilities, reaching 87.56% and 88.11% respectively. With proper means of additional regularization, LAP can even perform better than GAP.","PeriodicalId":137505,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia Conference on Algorithms, Computing and Machine Learning (CACML)","volume":"28 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134309063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A series of excellent fully-supervised crowd counting methods spring up and achieve great performance. Nevertheless, all of the fully-supervised methods deeply depend on large quantities of annotated crowd density maps. Collecting and annotating crowd images is time-consuming and expensive especially for highly dense crowds. In contrast, unlabeled crowd images can be acquired without having to make a great effort. However, it is challenging to effectively exploit unlabeled data for crowd counting. To this end, we propose a semi-supervised crowd counting method that aims to optimize the crowd counting models via exploiting large amounts of unlabeled crowd images. Firstly, we design an effective proxy task based on image patch counts statistics. Then, we present an end-to-end iterative learning strategy to train our semi-supervised framework. To prove the effectiveness of our semi-supervised method, we conducted various experiments on three benchmark crowd counting datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our semi-supervised algorithm achieves competitive performance compared with the the-state-of-art semi-supervised crowd counting approaches. Furthermore, experimental results show that our method performs well on cross-dataset.","PeriodicalId":137505,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia Conference on Algorithms, Computing and Machine Learning (CACML)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132449525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to objective reasons such as weather, cost, etc., we can hardly obtain abundant high-quality remote sensing images, especially for specific targets, which severely limits the training of the object detector, leading to poor detection performance. Thus for the first time, this paper introduces the Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs) for arbitrary-oriented object detection in remote sensing images, by augmenting the dataset to improve the performance of detectors. We construct DETGAN with two-layer self-attention modules to capture long-distance dependence for high-quality image generation. To solve the mismatch between generated slices and the samples for detectors, we propose the GAN-to-Detection transfer strategy, in which the slices are inserted into a background with the same size as the samples for detectors and then added to the training set. Experiments show that the performance of ship detectors is successfully improved with the transfer strategy, and demonstrate that GAN is an effective way to alleviate the problem of data insufficiency in remote sensing image object detection.","PeriodicalId":137505,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia Conference on Algorithms, Computing and Machine Learning (CACML)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125162509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

DR grading is crucial in determining the relevant treatment to reduce vision loss. Automatic grading approaches of DR are very significant for helping ophthalmologists design adequate treatment to patients. However, DR grading is challenging due to the facts of intra-class variations and inter-class similarities. The key point of solving DR grading is to find abundant discriminative lesions corresponding to subtle visual differences, such as microaneurysms, soft exudates and hemorrhages. To solve the problem, we proposed a two-stage classification process to firstly classify the presence or absence of DR based on the characteristics of fundus images of DR patients. Then for fundus images with DR, we proposed a novel lesion attention module to perceive and capture lesion features for fine-grained classification. Comprehensive experiments are conducted on DDR dataset to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed DR grading method. Our method achieves the state-of-the-art results on DDR dataset.","PeriodicalId":137505,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia Conference on Algorithms, Computing and Machine Learning (CACML)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127075303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, it is difficult and expensive to collect defect images, leading to the problem of small samples. Networks lack the ability of generalization. Second, current neural networks are limited to specific industrial scenarios for learning and training and hard to be applied on a new domain, thus lack the cross-domain migration capability. Based on the above problems, we propose the concept of cross-domain data joint learning and a two-stage Cross-Domain Defect Detection Network(C3DN) based on segmentation network and classification network, trying to mine the hidden value in cross-domain data. The segmentation part can effectively extract defects from different material textures and locate them while the classification part can focus on the defects with attentional mechanism and tell whether there are defects. In order to verify the feasibility of cross-domain data joint learning, we organized and re-annotated the public datasets of various industrial fields to form a new cross-domain dataset. C3DN had a strong performance in both validation set and test set, showing its good generalization ability. Through the cross-domain defect detection confusion matrix, the excellent performance of C3DN in different industrial fields was compared and verified, showing its good cross-domain migration ability.","PeriodicalId":137505,"journal":{"name":"2022 Asia Conference on Algorithms, Computing and Machine Learning (CACML)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128149814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
