Since the first robot manipulator for industrial applications was installed for General Motors, the planning and execution of its movements has been an important part in the development of robotic systems involving researchers from different specialties. The planning and guidance of the movement in the robots has been increasingly complex due to the wide variety of applications in which they are used, from repetitive tasks in the traditional assembly lines to the assistance in the movements of very precise surgical operations which require real-time movement guidance, this has established an area of research and technological development known as “Robotics hardware and software driving”. The article shows the implementation of the methodology called “Boundary Object Function BOF” [Peña 2005], algorithm for recognition and location of rigid forms, in an embedded electronic device of the RaspBerry Pi type 3. In the method used, the electronic system acquires and condition the image, to be converted to a binary image used by the BOF algorithm. Experimental results within a manufacturing cell were performed with the implementation of the method. The result of the integration of recognition algorithms and location of rigid manufacturing parts in embedded electronic systems, shows the possibility of using them in manufacturing applications with processing high speed requirements and concurrent processes, in this way, a robot learns online and identify objects that are familiar to the performed tasks. The technological proposal presented for the invariant recognition of objects based on the BOF algorithm implemented in an electronic embedded system calculates the contour of rigid pieces very quickly.

Network traffic identification plays a major role in modern-day network monitoring systems. Most network systems identify traffic based on features such as, flow statistics, static signatures and port numbers. Identifying network traffic is essential, because plenty of information regarding a network flow can be learned by knowing the application protocol associated with it. However, the challenge for traffic classification is to identify features in the network flow data. This paper explores the issue of network traffic identification with neural network and deep learning. A convolutional neural network (CNN) with different optimization algorithms is trained to identify application protocols based on network flow data. The image and text processing hypothesis of the CNN model is extended to naturally fit to the curated dataset. Protocol labels with a high frequency distribution are easily detected by the model, and the results show that the CNN model works equally well on network flow data. A discussion on the performance of different optimization algorithms used with the CNN model is presented.
Due to growth of vehicles in urban cities, such problems are increases traffic control systems, security and crime investigation, intelligent parking and electronic toll collection. Moreover, Logistics access manageme...

The hippocampus is a particularly interesting target for neuroscience research studies due to its essential role within the human brain. In large human cohort studies, bilateral hippocampal structures are frequently identified and measured to gain insight into human behaviour or genomic variability in neuropsychiatric disorders of interest. Automatic segmentation is performed using various algorithms, with FreeSurfer being a popular option. In this manuscript, we present a method to segment the bilateral hippocampus using a deep-learned appearance model. Deep convolutional neural networks (ConvNets) have shown great success in recent years, due to their ability to learn meaningful features from a mass of training data. Our method relies on the following key novelties: (i) we use a wide and variable training set coming from multiple cohorts (ii) our training labels come in part from the output of the FreeSurfer algorithm, and (iii) we include synthetic data and use a powerful data augmentation scheme. Our method proves to be robust, and it has fast inference (<30s total per subject), with trained model available online (https://***/bthyreau/hippodeep). We depict illustrative results and show extensive qualitative and quantitative cohort-wide comparisons with FreeSurfer. Our work demonstrates that deep neural network methods can easily encode, and even improve, existing anatomical knowledge, even when this knowledge exists in algorithmic form. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.v.

Ultrasound imaging can be used to identify a variety of lung pathologies, including pneumonia, pneumothorax, pleural effusion, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Ultrasound lung images of sufficient quality are relatively easy to acquire, but can be difficult to interpret as the relevant features are mostly non-structural and require expert interpretation. In this work, we developed a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm to identify five key lung features linked to pathological lung conditions: B-lines, merged B-lines, lack of lung sliding, consolidation and pleural effusion. The algorithm was trained using short ultrasound videos of in vivo swine models with carefully controlled lung conditions. Key lung features were annotated by expert radiologists and snonographers. Pneumothorax (absence of lung sliding) was detected with an Inception v3 CNN using simulated M-mode images. A single shot detection (SSD) framework was used to detect the remaining features. Our results indicate that deep learning algorithms can successfully detect lung abnormalities in ultrasound imagery. Computer-assisted ultrasound interpretation can place expert-level diagnostic accuracy in the hands of low-resource health care providers.

Most emerging applications in imaging and machine learning must perform immense amounts of computation while holding to strict limits on energy and power. To meet these goals, architects are building increasingly specialized compute engines tailored for these specific tasks. The resulting computer systems are heterogeneous, containing multiple processing cores with wildly different execution models. Unfortunately, the cost of producing this specialized hardware - and the software to control it - is astronomical. Moreover, the task of porting algorithms to these heterogeneous machines typically requires that the algorithm be partitioned across the machine and rewritten for each specific architecture, which is time consuming and prone to error. Over the last several years, the authors have approached this problem using domain-specific languages (DSLs): high-level programming languages customized for specific domains, such as database manipulation, machine learning, or imageprocessing. By giving up generality, these languages are able to provide high-level abstractions to the developer while producing high-performance output. The purpose of this book is to spur the adoption and the creation of domain-specific languages, especially for the task of creating hardware designs. In the first chapter, a short historical journey explains the forces driving computer architecture today. Chapter 2 describes the various methods for producing designs for accelerators, outlining the push for more abstraction and the tools that enable designers to work at a higher conceptual level. From there, Chapter 3 provides a brief introduction to imageprocessingalgorithms and hardware design patterns for implementing them. Chapters 4 and 5 describe and compare Darkroom and Halide, two domain-specific languages created for imageprocessing that produce high-performance designs for both FPGAs and CPUs from the same source code, enabling rapid design cycles and quick porting of algorithms.

Person re-identification (RE-ID) has played a significant role in the fields of imageprocessing and computer vision because of its potential value in practical applications. Researchers are striving to design new algorithms to improve the performance of RE-ID but ignore the advantages of existing approaches. In this paper, motivated by deep reinforcement learning, we propose a Deep Agent which can integrate existing algorithms and enable them to complement each other. Two Deep Agents are designed to integrate algorithms for data augmentation and feature extraction parts separately for RE-ID. Experiment results demonstrate that the integrated algorithms can achieve a better accuracy than using each one of them alone.
