Recently, antiforensic methods have been proposed that invalidate most of the state-of-the-art median filter digital image forensic techniques. Also, the existing counter antiforensic methods decline noticeably when evaluated on small-sized patches in JPEG compressed images. In this letter, we have developed a robust residual dense (neural) network-based counter antiforensic median filter detection technique that exploits local dense connection and residual learning of features for improved classification of images. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves superior performance to state-of-the-art techniques in detecting forgeries, even in small patches, *** compressed images, for both median filtered and antiforensic median filtered images.

In the compressive spectral imaging (CSI) framework, different architectures have been proposed to recover high-resolution spectral images from compressive measurements. Since CSI architectures compactly capture the relevant information of the spectral image, various methods that extract classification features from compressive samples have been recently proposed. However, these techniques require a feature extraction procedure that reorders measurements using the information embedded in the coded aperture patterns. In this paper, a method that fuses features directly from dual-resolution compressive measurements is proposed for spectral image classification. More precisely, the fusion method is formulated as an inverse problem that estimates high-spatial-resolution and low-dimensional feature bands from compressive measurements. To this end, the decimation matrices that describe the compressive measurements as degraded versions of the fused features are mathematically modeled using the information embedded in the coded aperture patterns. Furthermore, we include both a sparsity-promoting and a total-variation (TV) regularization terms to the fusion problem in order to consider the correlations between neighbor pixels, and therefore, improve the accuracy of pixel-based classifiers. To solve the fusion problem, we describe an algorithm based on the accelerated variant of the alternating direction method of multipliers (accelerated-ADMM). Additionally, a classification approach that includes the developed fusion method and a multilayer neural network is introduced. Finally, the proposed approach is evaluated on three remote sensing spectral images and a set of compressive measurements captured in the laboratory. Extensive simulations show that the proposed classification approach outperforms other approaches under various performance metrics.

In this paper, we consider ways to improve the stochastic gradient method efficiency of object identification for binary and grayscale images using methods of image preprocessing. Identification of an object is understood as the recognition of an object on the image with its parameters estimation. Low-pass filtering and image equalization are considered as preliminary processing. The identification parameters convergence rate is investigated. The optimal sizes of Gaussian filter mask for binary and grayscale images were found based on COIL-20 images.

This paper proposes a sentiment analysis model based on two-channel attention-driven convolutional neural networks and long short term memory neural networks for financial text. Firstly, this paper uses two different word vector initialization methods to construct classification model by selecting different feature representations and taking full account of the relationship between words. Secondly, this paper adds Attention mechanism based on the context structure to analyze the text to obtain more hidden information. Finally, the experimental results show that our approach is feasible and effective.

Successful segmentation of the total intracranial vault (ICV) and ventricles is of critical importance when studying neurodegeneration through neuroimaging. We present iCVMapper and VentMapper, robust algorithms that use a convolutional neural network (CNN) to segment the ICV and ventricles from both single and multi-contrast MRI data. Our models were trained on a large dataset from two multi-site studies (N = 528 subjects for ICV, N = 501 for ventricular segmentation) consisting of older adults with varying degrees of cerebrovascular lesions and atrophy, which pose significant challenges for most segmentation approaches. The models were tested on 238 participants, including subjects with vascular cognitive impairment and high white matter hyperintensity burden. Two of the three test sets came from studies not used in the training dataset. We assessed our algorithms relative to four state-of-the-art ICV extraction methods (MONSTR, BET, Deep Extraction, FreeSurfer, DeepMedic), as well as two ventricular segmentation tools (FreeSurfer, DeepMedic). Our multi-contrast models outperformed other methods across many of the evaluation metrics, with average Dice coefficients of 0.98 and 0.96 for ICV and ventricular segmentation respectively. Both models were also the most time efficient, segmenting the structures in orders of magnitude faster than some of the other available methods. Our networks showed an increased accuracy with the use of a conditional random field (CRF) as a post-processing step. We further validated both segmentation models, highlighting their robustness to images with lower resolution and signal-to-noise ratio, compared to tested techniques. The pipeline and models are available at: and to enable further investigation of the roles of ICV and ventricles in relation to normal aging and neurodegeneration in large multi-site studies.

Objective. As one of the commonly used control signals of brain-computer interface (BCD, steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) exhibits advantages of stability, periodicity and minimal training requirements. However, SSVEP retains the non-linear, non-stationary and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) characteristics of EEG. The traditional SSVEP extraction methods regard noise as harmful information and highlight the useful signal by suppressing the noise. In the collected EEG, noise and SSVEP are usually coupled together, the useful signal is inevitably attenuated while the noise is suppressed. Also, an additional band-pass filter is needed to eliminate the multi-scale noise, which causes the edge effect. Approach. To address this issue, a novel method based on underdamped second-order stochastic resonance (USSR) is proposed in this paper for SSVEP extraction. Main results. A synergistic effect produced by noise, useful signal and the nonlinear system can force the energy of noise to be transferred into SSVEP, and hence amplifying the useful signal while suppressing multi-scale noise. The recognition performances of detection are compared with the widely-used canonical coefficient analysis (CCA) and multivariate synchronization index (MSI). Significance. The comparison results indicate that USSR exhibits increased accuracy and faster processing speed, which effectively improves the information transmission rate (ITR) of SSVEP-based BCI.

Estimating mobile signal strength accurately is a crucial task for network providers and their customers. However, current methodologies to estimate mobile signal strength present limitations in their practical implementation (i.e. physical based models), portability (i.e. spatial interpolation methods), simplicity and accuracy (i.e. path loss models). In this paper we present a novel approach that takes advantage of geospatial Big Data and advanced Artificial Intelligence to predict mobile signal strength at scale. Particularly, we used open access geo-spatial information about weather, tree coverage, land use, imperviousness, altitude and network infrastructure (i.e. a total of 174 features) to train and test uncertainty-aware artificial neural networks to predict mobile signal strength on data from the NetBravo crowdsourcing platform across all the United Kingdom (UK). Our model scored a best performance of 7.9 (standard deviation of 0.2) dBm for Root Mean Squared Error and 5.7 (standard deviation of 0.4) dBm for the Mean Absolute Error. Feature importance analysis showed that mobile cell tower characteristics and geospatial features showing the distribution of imperviousness and tree cover density over the line of sight between the mobile cell tower and the receiver as well as relative humidity were among the top 20 most important features.
