As a powerful constraint, low-rank priors have been widely applied in image inpainting to transform such problems into well-posed ones. However, the low-rank assumption of original visual data is only in an approximate mode, which in turn results in suboptimal recovery of fine-grained details, particularly when the missing rate is extremely high. Moreover, a single prior cannot faithfully capture the complex texture structure of an image. In this paper, we propose a joint usage of Smooth Tucker decomposition and Low-rank Hankel constraint (STLH) for image inpainting, which enables simultaneous capturing of the global low-rankness and local piecewise smoothness. Specifically, based on the Hankelization operation, the original image is mapped to a high-order structure for capturing more spatial and spectral information. By employing Tucker decomposition for optimizing the Hankel tensor and simultaneously applying Discrete Total Variation (DTV) to the Tucker factors, sharper edges are generated and better isotropic properties are enhanced. Moreover, to approximate the essential rank of the Tucker decomposition and avoid facing the uncertainty problem of the upper-rank limit, a reverse strategy is adopted to approximate the true rank of the Tucker decomposition. Finally, the overall image inpainting model is optimized by the well-known alternate least squares (ALS) algorithm. Extensive experiments show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance both quantitatively and qualitatively. Particularly, in the extreme case with 99% pixels missed, the results from STLH are averagely ahead of others at least 0.9dB in terms of PSNR values.","PeriodicalId":39673,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computers and Applications","volume":"32 1","pages":"421 - 432"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89351765","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, tea plants are vulnerable to various diseases, which reduce tea production. Early diagnosis of diseases is crucial to averting their detrimental effects on the growth and quality of tea. Conventional disease identification methods depend on the manual analysis of disease features by experts, which is time-consuming and resource-intensive. Moreover, published approaches based on computer vision left a broad scope for improving accuracy and reducing computational costs. This work attempts to design an automated learning-based model by leveraging the power of deep learning methods with reduced computational costs for accurately identifying tea diseases. The proposed work uses a Convolutional Neural Network architecture based on depthwise separable convolutions and residual networks integrated with a Support Vector Machine. Additionally, an attention module is added to the model for precise extraction of disease features. An image dataset is constructed comprising the images of healthy and diseased tea leaves infected with blister blight, grey blight, and red rust. The performance of the proposed model is evaluated on the self-generated tea dataset and compared with eight other state-of-the-art deep-learning models to establish its significance.

Multilingual content (document) is not suitable for many people who only need content in one language. Furthermore, dividing a multilingual document into monolingual documents helps researchers extract only the text of the desired language to use in different tasks such as training or model testing. Therefore, it is challenging to clean and divide the raw content manually. This paper presents an automatic approach to dividing a multilingual document and reassembling it into monolingual documents by examining three existing state-of-the-art tools for Language Identification (LI). We prepared different corpora with different heterogeneity characteristics for the evaluation and evaluated their code-switching pattern using three different code-switching metrics.

With 4.66 billion users reported to be in the Websphere, many are active on multiple social media platforms simultaneously. Identifying users across multiple platforms poses challenges in integrating user profiles from various sources. Different matching schemes have been suggested over the years based on different user profile features, but very little information has been uncovered about user-generated text as a unique attribute for user profile matching, which generally poses real challenges in real-world scenarios. As many users have insufficient text and the use of non-discrete text information makes the comparison operation between the two social networks of quadratic complexity. Our study examines the different existing literature schemes for matching user profile pairs based only on their generated textual content. We suggest and evaluate the effectiveness of a two stage matching approach based on Locality Sensitive Hashing clustering and nearest neighbor search.

However, due to their down-and-out pursuance, the existing approaches like FCN (Fully Convolutional Network), PSPNet (Pyramid Scene Parsing Network), U-Net, and SegNet still required improvement for offering better semantic segmentation while identifying breast cancer. In this paper, the newly proposed breast cancer tumor segmentation method consists of four steps pre-processing, augmentation, segmenting image using multi-scale convolution and multi- attention mechanisms respectively. The proposed method utilizes the ResNet (Residual Network) backbone network with multi-scale convolution for feature map prediction. Also, the effectiveness of the multi-channel attention module with a pyramid dilated nodule is employed for semantic segmentation. Gated axial, position, and channel attention are combined to create a multi-channel attention mechanism.

The number of children who have gone missing, particularly in public areas, has risen, making it even more necessary to develop efficient solutions. This study focused on designing and implementing an affordable Internet of Things-based system that enables parents to track their children’s movement while they are in outdoor environments. The system described in this study relies on the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) readers installed in multiple locations to detect the presence of a child within a designated area of interest. To connect parents with this system, an Android smartphone application was developed and connected to the Thinger.io platform. The application displays the child’s location on a map using global positioning system technology and sends an alert message through the global system for mobile networks via 3G as soon as the RFID reader detects the child’s mobile tag. The system was tested within the designated area of interest to evaluate its performance. The results revealed that the RFID reader was able to detect the child’s movement within a range of approximately 4.5 meters from each RFID device and 9 meters between two RFID devices. Furthermore, the system was able to accurately determine the child’s real-time geolocation, both with and without Internet access. The system was also found to be lightweight and cost effective.","PeriodicalId":39673,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computers and Applications","volume":"4 1","pages":"367 - 378"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88600678","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, this task remains challenging due to the diversity and complexity of building shapes, sizes, and textures, as well as variations in lighting and weather conditions. These difficulties motivate our research to propose an improved approach for building extraction using UNet and transfer learning to address these challenges. In this work, we tested seven different backbone architectures within the UNet encoder and found that combining UNet with ResNet101 or ResNet152 yielded the best results. Based on these findings, we combined the superior performance of these base models to create a novel architecture, which achieved significant improvements over previous methods. Specifically, our method achieved a 1.33% increase in Intersection over Union (IoU) compared to the baseline UNet model. Furthermore, it demonstrated a superior performance with a 1.21% increase in IoU over UNet-ResNet101 and a 1.60% increase in IoU over UNet-ResNet152. We evaluated our proposed approach on the INRIA Aerial Image dataset and demonstrated its superiority. Our research addresses a critical need for accurate building extraction from RS images and overcomes the challenges posed by diverse building characteristics.","PeriodicalId":39673,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computers and Applications","volume":"442 1","pages":"413 - 419"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86855742","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}

To overcome this issue, the paper proposes a novel channel pruning technique that leverages the correlation topology of feature maps generated by each CNNs layer to construct a network with fewer nodes, reducing computational costs significantly. Redundant channels exhibit a high degree of topological similarity and tend to increase as the number of network layers rises. Removing the channel corresponding to highly correlated feature maps allows retrieval of the ‘base’ set of characteristics needed by subsequent layers. The proposed channel pruning technique provides a promising approach to reducing the computational costs of deep convolutional neural networks while maintaining high performance levels. By designing a network structure optimized for specific input data types, the method results in more efficient and effective machine learning models. The pruning operation requires fine-tuning to optimize network performance, and experiments using X-ray, chest CT, and MNIST images show that the pruned network can eliminate approximately 80% of redundant channels with minimal performance deterioration (maintaining original CNNs performance at 99.2%).","PeriodicalId":39673,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computers and Applications","volume":"95 1","pages":"379 - 390"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85297097","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}
