Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

Deep learning (DL) is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) which is applied to automatically dig through large volumes of data to identify patterns and extract features from complex unsupervised data without the involvement of humans. Classic neural networks, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), generative adversarial networks, deep reinforcement learning, etc. are some of the important DL algorithms which could be used for image data analysis, pattern recognition, speech recognition, and to perform several computer vision tasks. Applications of DL for image, audio, video, and text data in unstructured form can help us to make smart decisions and build effective strategies by focusing on perspectives and needs of real-world buyers and users of technology. The exponential growth of big data would be meaningless unless technologies such as AI and DL are used for the anomaly detection, pattern recognition, and industrial fault detection. It is pivotal to design efficient algorithms, models, and methodologies of DL to analyze the big data generated from the industry, healthcare, smart cities, and the medical field.

The topics of interest in this SI include but are not limited to:

  • Deep learning algorithms
  • Deep learning for image data analysis
  • Deep learning in the Internet of Things (IoT)
  • Deep learning for industrial data analysis
  • Deep learning in natural language processing
  • Speech recognition with deep learning
  • Medical imaging data analysis with deep learning
  • Pattern recognition and applications of deep learning
  • Computer vision tasks and deep learning

This paper proposes a novel mathematical theory of adaptation to convexity of loss functions based on the definition of the condense-discrete convexity (CDC) method. The developed theory is considered to be of immense value to stochastic settings and is used for developing the well-known stochastic gradient-descent (SGD) method. The successful contribution of change of the convexity definition impacts the exploration of the learning-rate scheduler used in the SGD method and therefore impacts the convergence rate of the solution that is used for measuring the effectiveness of deep networks. In our development of methodology, the convexity method CDC and learning rate are directly related to each other through the difference operator. In addition, we have incorporated the developed theory of adaptation with trigonometric simplex (TS) designs to explore different learning rate schedules for the weight and bias parameters within the network. Experiments confirm that by using the new definition of convexity to explore learning rate schedules, the optimization is more effective in practice and has a strong effect on the training of the deep neural network.

Activity Recognition (AR) is a method to identify a certain activity from the set of actions. It is commonly used to recognize a set of Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), which are performed by the elderly in a smart home environment. AR can be beneficial for monitoring the elder’s health condition, where the information can be further shared with the family members, caretakers, or doctors. Due to the unpredictable behaviors of an elderly person, performance of ADLs can vary in day-to-day life. Each activity may perform differently, which can affect the sequence of the sensor’s raw data. Due to this issue, recognizing ADLs from the sensor’s raw data remains a challenge. In this paper, we proposed an Activity Recognition for the prediction of the Activities of Daily Living using Artificial Intelligence approach. Data acquisition techniques and modified Naive Bayes supervised learning algorithm are used to design the prediction model for ADL. Our experiment results establish that the proposed method can achieve high accuracy in comparison to other well-established supervised learning algorithms. Full article

Perovskites have exceptional physical and chemical features in different fields. Perovskites have an ABO3 formula with similar sizes of A-site and B-site cations. This research explores the challenges of developing new perovskite solar cells with high performance. Therefore, this article proposes a deep learning model for the prediction of perovskites performance measures. The measures are: energy conversion performance, ABO3 stability, ion volume, and induced oxygen vacancy dimension. These performance measures are very crucial electrochemical reactions in energy conversion in fuel crystals. The challenges in any deep learning model are the lack of the presence of sufficient data and training time. Consequently, in this research, we propose a transfer learning perovskites model. Perovskite performance detection is critical to offer operative energy resources. In the proposed model, the constructed detection model uses a perovskites feature set. The transfer learning model utilizes other materials with large-sized datasets to predict the four performance measures with high accuracy. The output of the transfer learning is then utilized for the proposed deep learning model to predict perovskites performance measures with a small-sized dataset. A dataset of 8500 perovskite samples is utilized in the research. The results prove that a deep learning F2-Score with transfer learning attains high accuracy of 98.95%, recall of 96.91% and F2-score of 97.05%. Full article

This study aimed to develop a vision-based gait recognition system for person identification. Gait is the soft biometric trait recognizable from low-resolution surveillance videos, where the face and other hard biometrics are not even extractable. The gait is a cycle pattern of human body locomotion that consists of two sequential phases: swing and stance. The gait features of the complete gait cycle, referred to as gait signature, can be used for person identification. The proposed work utilizes gait dynamics for gait feature extraction. For this purpose, the spatio temporal power spectral gait features are utilized for gait dynamics captured through sub-pixel motion estimation, and they are less affected by the subject’s appearance. The spatio temporal power spectral gait features are utilized for a quadratic support vector machine classifier for gait recognition aiming for person identification. Spatio temporal power spectral preserves the spatiotemporal gait features and is adaptable for a quadratic support vector machine classifier-based gait recognition across different views and appearances. We have evaluated the gait features and support vector machine classifier-based gait recognition on a locally collected gait dataset that captures the effect of view variance in high scene depth videos. The proposed gait recognition technique achieves significant accuracy across all appearances and views. Full article

Artificial intelligence (AI) is among the major emerging research areas and industrial application fields. An important area of its application is in the preventive healthcare domain, in which appropriate dietary intake reporting is critical in assessing nutrient content. The traditional dietary assessment is cumbersome in terms of dish accuracy and time-consuming. The recent technology in computer vision with automatic recognition of dishes has the potential to support better dietary assessment. However, due to the wide variety of available foods, especially local dishes, improvements in food recognition are needed. In this research, we proposed an AI-based multiple-dish food recognition model using the EfficientDet deep learning (DL) model. The designed model was developed taking into consideration three types of meals, namely single-dish, mixed-dish, and multiple-dish, from local Taiwanese cuisine. The results demonstrate high mean average precision (mAP) = 0.92 considering 87 types of dishes. With high recognition performance, the proposed model has the potential for a promising solution to enhancing dish reporting. Our future work includes further improving the performance of the algorithms and integrating our system into a real-world mobile and cloud-computing-based system to enhance the accuracy of current dietary intake reporting tasks.
