    An efficient image retrieval system for remote sensing images using deep hashing network
    (Springer, 2020) Valaboju, S.; Venkatesan, M.
    Due to the huge increase in volumes of remote sensing images, there is a requirement for retrieval systems which maintain the retrieval accuracy and efficiency which requires better learning of features and the binary hash codes which better discriminate the images of different classes of images. The existing retrieval systems for remote sensing images use CNNs for feature learning which fails to preserve the spatial properties of an image which in turn affect the quality of binary hash code and the retrieval performance. This Paper tries to address the above goals by using (1) Extracting Hierarchical features of convolutional neural network and using them to sequential learning to better learn the features preserving spatial and semantic properties. (2) Use lossless triplet loss with two more loss functions to generate the binary hash codes which better discriminate the images of different classes. The proposed architecture consists of three phases: (1) Fine-tuning a pre-trained model. (2) Extracting the hierarchical features of convolutional neural network. (3) Using those features to train the deep learning-based hashing network. Experiments are conducted on a publicly available dataset UCMD and show that when hierarchial convolutional features are considered there is a significant improvement in performance. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd 2020.

    A TFD Approach to Stock Price Prediction
    (Springer, 2020) Chanduka, B.; Bhat, S.S.; Rajput, N.; Mohan, B.R.
    Accurate stock price predictions can help investors take correct decisions about the selling/purchase of stocks. With improvements in data analysis and deep learning algorithms, a variety of approaches has been tried for predicting stock prices. In this paper, we deal with the prediction of stock prices for automobile companies using a novel TFD—Time Series, Financial Ratios, and Deep Learning approach. We then study the results over multiple activation functions for multiple companies and reinforce the viability of the proposed algorithm. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Skeleton based Human Action Recognition for Smart City Application using Deep Learning
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Rashmi, M.; Guddeti, R.M.R.
    These days the Human Action Recognition (HAR) is playing a vital role in several applications such as surveillance systems, gaming, robotics, and so on. Interpreting the actions performed by a person from the video is one of the essential tasks of intelligent surveillance systems in the smart city, smart building, etc. Human action can be recognized either by using models such as depth, skeleton, or combinations of these models. In this paper, we propose the human action recognition system based on the 3D skeleton model. Since the role of different joints varies while performing the action, in the proposed work, we use the most informative distance and the angle between joints in the skeleton model as a feature set. Further, we propose a deep learning framework for human action recognition based on these features. We performed experiments using MSRAction3D, a publicly available dataset for 3D HAR, and the results demonstrated that the proposed framework obtained the accuracies of 95.83%, 92.9%, and 98.63% on three subsets of the dataset AS1, AS2, and AS3, respectively, using the protocols of [19]. © 2020 IEEE.

    Retinal-Layer Segmentation Using Dilated Convolutions
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2020) Guru Pradeep Reddy, T.; Ashritha, K.S.; Prajwala, T.M.; Girish, G.N.; Kothari, A.R.; Koolagudi, S.G.; Rajan, J.
    Visualization and analysis of Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) cross-sectional scans has gained a lot of importance in the diagnosis of several retinal abnormalities. Quantitative analytic techniques like retinal thickness and volumetric analysis are performed on cross-sectional images of the retina for early diagnosis and prognosis of retinal diseases. However, segmentation of retinal layers from OCT images is a complicated task on account of certain factors like speckle noise, low image contrast and low signal-to-noise ratio amongst many others. Owing to the importance of retinal layer segmentation in diagnosing ophthalmic diseases, manual segmentation techniques have been proposed and adopted in clinical practice. Nonetheless, manual segmentations suffer from erroneous boundary detection issues. This paper thus proposes a fully automated semantic segmentation technique that uses an encoder–decoder architecture to accurately segment the prominent retinal layers. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Leveraging deep learning approaches for patient case similarity evaluation
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH info@springer-sbm.com, 2021) Naganure, N.; Ashwin Nayak, U.; Kamath S․, S.
    One of the fundamental problems in Health Informatics is evaluating the clinical similarity between two patients for treatment recommendation. Retrieving clinical records of existing patients who are potentially similar to a newly arrived patient could help a physician in faster diagnosis and recommending informed treatment options, especially in the case of areas where specialist medical care is scarce. In Western countries, patient records are extensively stored in the form of Electronic Health Records (EHR), which are created manually by human experts, which can take a lot of time and is a cost-intensive process. In developing countries like India, patient records are increasingly being stored in digital formats and often contain diverse, heterogeneous, unstructured reports of patients. These can be potentially utilized for designing patient similarity assessment and recommendation systems. In this paper, we propose a patient similarity evaluation framework built on two supervised learning models—Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU). Our method creates an optimal patient representation for existing patients by aggregating reports collected over the duration of treatment, to overcome the loss of temporal information, for which a cohort of 16,723 patients across 8 disease categories was used. Both the models (CNN and GRU) learn by passing through the records of a patient chronologically and achieve an accuracy of 97.60 and 93.62%, respectively, on standard EHR dataset like MIMIC-III. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd 2021.

    Clustering Enhanced Encoder–Decoder Approach to Dimensionality Reduction and Encryption
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH info@springer-sbm.com, 2021) Mukesh, B.R.; Madhumitha, N.; Aditya, N.P.; Vivek, S.; Anand Kumar, M.
    Dimensionality reduction refers to reducing the number of attributes that are being considered, by producing a set of principal variables. It can be divided into feature selection and feature extraction. Dimensionality reduction serves as one of the preliminary challenges in storage management and is useful for effective transmission over the Internet. In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach using encoder–decoder networks for effective (almost-lossless) compression and encryption. The neural network essentially encrypts data into an encoded format which can only be decrypted using the corresponding decoders. Clustering is essential to reduce the variation in the dataset to ensure overfit. Using clustering resulted in a net gain of 1% over the standard encoder architecture over three MNIST datasets. The compression ratio achieved was 24.6:1. The usage of image datasets is for visualization only and the proposed pipeline could be applied for textual and visual data as well. © 2021, The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    COVID-19 Prediction Using Chest X-rays Images
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Kumar, A.; Sharma, N.; Naik, D.
    Understanding covid-19 became very important since large scale vaccination of this was not possible. Chest X-ray is the first imaging technique that plays an important role in the diagnosis of COVID-19 disease. Till now in various fields, great success has been achieved using convolutional neural networks(CNNs) for image recognition and classification. However, due to the limited availability of annotated medical images, the classification of medical images remains the biggest challenge in medical diagnosis. The proposed research work has performed transfer learning using deep learning models like Resnet50 and VGG16 and compare their performance with a newly developed CNN based model. Resnet50 and VGG16 are state of the art models and have been used extensively. A comparative analysis with them will give us an idea of how good our model is. Also, this research work develops a CNN model as it is expected to perform really good on image classification related problems. The proposed research work has used kaggle radiography dataset for training, validating and testing. Moreover, this research work has used another x-ray images dataset which have been created from two different sources. The result shows that the CNN model developed by us outperforms VGG16 and Resnet50 model. © 2021 IEEE.

    Weaklier-Supervised Semantic Segmentation with Pyramid Scene Parsing Network
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Naik, D.; Jaidhar, C.D.
    Semantic image segmentation is the essential task of computer vision. It requires dividing visual input into different meaningful interpretable categories. In this work image attribution and segmentation approach is proposed. It can identify complex objects present in an image. The proposed model starts with superpixelization using Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC). A Multi Heat Map Slices Fusion model (MSF) produces an object seed heat map, and a Saliency Edge Colour Texture (SECT) model generates pixel-level annotations. Lastly, the PSPNet model for developing the final semantic segmentation of the object. The proposed model was implemented, and compared with the earlier work, it excelled the performance score. © 2021 IEEE.

    Ensemble Neural Models for Depressive Tendency Prediction Based on Social Media Activity of Twitter Users
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Saini, G.; Yadav, N.; Kamath S․, S.
    In view of the ongoing pandemic, Clinical Depression (CD) is a serious health challenge for a large segment of the population. According to recent public surveys, more than 30 million American citizens are the victim of depression each year and depression also causes 30 thousand suicides each year. Early detection of depression can help provide much needed medical intervention and treatment for better mental health. Toward this, the social media posts of users can be a significant source for analyzing their mental health signals, and can also serve as a measure for assessing the prevalence of clinical depression tendencies in the population. In this paper, an approach that leverages the predictive power of supervised and semi-supervised learning algorithms for detecting depressive tendencies in the population using social media activity is presented. Learning models were trained on preprocessed tweet data from the Sentiment140 dataset containing 1.6 million labeled tweets. We also designed a convolution neural network model for the prediction task that outperformed machine learning models by a significant margin with an accuracy of 97.1%. The performance of the proposed models is benchmarked using standard metrics like SMDI (Social Media Depression Index). Crowd-sourcing approaches were adopted for collecting real-time social behavior of users to train the proposed model and demonstrate its potential for real-world applications. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
