However, current image enhancement dehazing methods have problems such as being affected by depth information, high computational complexity, and artefacts in the restoration results. In this paper, based on the dark channel prior model, a tolerance mechanism is introduced in the transmittance estimation part. The total variation (TV) model constrained by the ℓ1-norm is used to refine the transmittance estimation. In addition, to reduce our algorithm’s calculation, we use down-sampling technology to reduce the original image to obtain the transmittance part. Then we calculate the transmittance of the small resolution image. In the end, we can generate the transmittance of the original image by interpolation. The experimental data processing results verify the effectiveness of our algorithm.","PeriodicalId":285191,"journal":{"name":"2022 14th International Conference on Machine Learning and Computing (ICMLC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127809763","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}

CLCS are needed to actively align actual values of a process to a given reference or set values in real-time with a very high precession. Yet, artificial intelligence (AI) is not used to model, design, optimize, and tune CLCS. This paper will highlight potential AI-empowered and -based control system designs and designing procedures, gathering new opportunities and research direction in the field of control system engineering. Therefore, this paper illustrates which building blocks within the standard block diagram of CLCS can be replaced by AI, i.e., artificial neuronal networks (ANN). Having processes with real-time contains and functional safety in mind, it is discussed if AI-based controller blocks can cope with these demands. By concluding the paper, the pros and cons of AI-empowered as well as -based CLCS designs are discussed, and possible research directions for introducing AI in the domain of control system engineering are given.","PeriodicalId":285191,"journal":{"name":"2022 14th International Conference on Machine Learning and Computing (ICMLC)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121283378","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}

In the last few years, these algorithms have progressed tremendously. Transformer architecture and sentence encoders have proven to give superior results on natural language processing tasks. But a major limitation of these architectures is their applicability for text no longer than a few hundred words. In this paper, we explore hierarchical transfer learning approaches for long document classification. We employ pre-trained Universal Sentence Encoder (USE) and Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) in a hierarchical setup to capture better representations efficiently. Our proposed models are conceptually simple where we divide the input data into chunks and then pass this through base models of BERT and USE. Then output representation for each chunk is then propagated through a shallow neural network comprising of LSTMs or CNNs for classifying the text data. These extensions are evaluated on 6 benchmark datasets. We show that USE + CNN/LSTM performs better than its stand-alone baseline. Whereas the BERT + CNN/LSTM performs on par with its stand-alone counterpart. However, the hierarchical BERT models are still desirable as it avoids the quadratic complexity of the attention mechanism in BERT. Along with the hierarchical approaches, this work also provides a comparison of different deep learning algorithms like USE, BERT, HAN, Longformer, and BigBird for long document classification. The Longformer approach consistently performs well on most of the datasets.","PeriodicalId":285191,"journal":{"name":"2022 14th International Conference on Machine Learning and Computing (ICMLC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130985179","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}

But real-world credit rating data usually shows long-tail distributions, which means a heavy class imbalanced problem challenging the corporate credit rating system greatly. To tackle that, inspired by the recent advances of pre-train techniques in self-supervised representation learning, we propose a novel framework named Contrastive Pre-training for Corporate Credit Rating (CP4CCR), which utilizes the self-supervision for getting over the class imbalance. Specifically, we propose to, in the first phase, exert contrastive self-supervised pre-training without label information, which aims to learn a better class-agnostic initialization. Furthermore, two self-supervised tasks are developed within CP4CCR: (i) Feature Masking (FM) and (ii) Feature Swapping(FS). In the second phase, we can train any standard corporate credit rating model initialized by the pre-trained network. Extensive experiments conducted on the real public-listed corporate rating dataset, prove that CP4CCR can improve the performance of standard corporate credit rating models, especially for the class with few samples.","PeriodicalId":285191,"journal":{"name":"2022 14th International Conference on Machine Learning and Computing (ICMLC)","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131417330","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}
