Accurate and timely investigation to concentrate grade and recovery is a premise of realizing automation control in a froth flotation process. This study seeks to use deeplearning technologies modeling a manufacturing flotation process, forecasting the concentrate purities for iron and the waste silica. Considering the size and temporality of engineering data, we adopted a long short-term memory to form the core part of the deeplearning model. To perform this process, 23 variables reflecting a flotation plant were monitored and collected hourly over a half year time span, then wrangled, split, and restructured for deeplearning model use. A deeplearning model encompassing a stacked long short-term memory architecture was designed, trained, and tested with prepared data. The model's performance on test data demonstrates the capability of our proposed model to predict real-time concentrate purities for iron and silica. Compared with a traditional machine model typified by a random forest model in this study, the proposed deeplearning model is significantly more competent to model a manufacturing froth flotation process. Expected to lay a foundation for realizing automation control of the flotation process, this study should encourage deeplearning in mineral processing engineering.

Accurate nerve identification is critical during surgical procedures to prevent damage to nerve tissues. Nerve injury can cause long-term adverse effects for patients, as well as financial overburden. Birefringence imaging is a noninvasive technique derived from polarized images that have successfully identified nerves that can assist during intraoperative surgery. Furthermore, birefringence images can be processed under 20 ms with a GPGPU implementation, making it a viable image modality option for real-timeprocessing. In this study, we first comprehensively investigate the usage of birefringence images combined with deeplearning, which can automatically detect nerves with gains upwards of 14% over its color image-based (RGB) counterparts on the F2 score. Additionally, we develop a deeplearning network framework using the U-Net architecture with a Transformer based fusion module at the bottleneck that leverages both birefringence and RGB modalities. The dual-modality framework achieves 76.12 on the F2 score, a gain of 19.6 % over single-modality networks using only RGB images. By leveraging and extracting the feature maps of each modality independently and using each modality's information for cross-modal interactions, we aim to provide a solution that would further increase the effectiveness of imaging systems for enabling noninvasive intraoperative nerve identification.

Accurate polyp delineation in colonoscopy is crucial for assisting in diagnosis, image-guided interventions, and treatments. However, current deep-learning approaches fall short due to integrity defects, which often manifest as inadequate segmentation of lesions. This paper introduces the integrity concept in polyp segmentation at both macro and micro levels, aiming to alleviate integrity deficiency. Specifically, the model should distinguish entire polyps at the macro level and identify all components within polyps at the micro level. Our Integrity Capturing Polyp Segmentation (IC-PolypSeg) network utilizes lightweight backbones and 3 key components for integrity ameliorating: 1) Pixel-wise feature redistribution (PFR) module captures global spatial correlations across channels in the final semantic-rich encoder features. 2) Cross-stage pixel-wise feature redistribution (CPFR) module dynamically fuses high-level semantics and low-level spatial features to capture contextual information. 3) Coarse-to-fine calibration module combines PFR and CPFR modules to achieve precise boundary detection. Extensive experiments on 5 public datasets demonstrate that the proposed IC-PolypSeg outperforms 8 state-of-the-art methods in terms of higher precision and significantly improved computational efficiency with lower computational consumption. IC-PolypSeg-EF0 employs 300 times fewer parameters than PraNet while achieving a real-timeprocessing speed of 235 FPS. Importantly, IC-PolypSeg reduces the false negative ratio on five datasets, meeting clinical requirements.

The new era of technology is being greatly influenced by the field of artificial intelligence. Computer vision and deeplearning have become increasingly important due to their ability to process vast amounts of data and provide insights and solutions in a variety of fields. Computer vision, deeplearning and signal analysis have been used in a growing number of applications and services including smart devices, image, and speech recognition, healthcare, etc., one such device is an infant monitoring system. It monitors the daily activities of the infant such as their sleeping patterns, sounds, and movements. In this paper, deeplearning and computer vision libraries were used to develop algorithms to detect whether the infant was in any uncomfortable situation such as sleeping on its back, face being covered and whether the infant was awake. The smart infant monitoring system detects the infant's unsafe resting situation in realtime and sent immediate alerts to the caretaker's device. This paper presents the design flow of a smart infant monitoring system consisting of a night vision camera, a Jetson Nano, and a Wi-Fi internet connection. The pose estimation and awake detection algorithms were developed and tested successfully for different infant resting/sleeping situations. The smart infant monitoring system provides significant benefits for safety and an improved understanding of infants' sleep patterns and behavior.

In this study, different strategies used to count vehicles and people in different image areas at a street intersection were analyzed to obtain counts at appropriate times suitable for real-time control of a traffic light. To achieve this, video recordings of cameras placed at the intersection were used to test and verify imageprocessing algorithms and deeplearning using the YOLOv3 network implemented on a 4 GB RAM Jetson Nano card. We counted the vehicles and people that stopped and crossed the polygons to delimit the different areas of interest, with a maximum error of +/- 2 in the validation tests for all cases. In addition, as a strategy, we combined the images from both cameras into a single one, thereby allowing us to make a single detection and subsequently determine if they are inside or outside the polygons used in separating the areas of interest with the respective counts. Furthermore, this enabled us to obtain information on vehicles and people stopped and crossing in a time of 0.73 s on average. Hence, it was established that the inclusion of the control algorithm is appropriate for real-time control of traffic lights.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is gaining traction in medical imaging. There are a plethora of potential applications, covering every stage of the medical imaging life cycle from image creation to diagnosis to outcome prognosis. The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine learning is having a rising influence in the field of dentistry and is improving the growth of digital tools and technology, with a wide range of applications in cosmetic dental treatments and treatment planning. deeplearning has been able to match and improve human performance in fields such as imageprocessing for extremely complex tasks such as object detection models with classification and prediction capabilities, as well as the identification of numerous dental diseases and their differential treatments. The lack of sufficiently large, curated, and representative training data with expert labeling (eg, annotations) is one of the main barriers to the development and clinical application of AI algorithms. This pilot study used a dataset of 664 dental panoramic X-ray images to build a model that can detect dental diseases and the differential treatments present on a full dental X-ray. After being manually labeled for 9 different classes, these images were used for training. The deep neural network used in this study is You Only Look Once (YOLO) version 6, a one-step search method primarily used for real-time object detection. Three classes of dental diseases and six classes of differential treatments were identified with the aid of bounding boxes. Results show that this strategy was able to attain a mean average precision (mAP) of 70.76% by training with this smaller number of images, which shows tremendous potential for dentists and radiologists.

Direct automatic segmentation of objects in 3D medical imaging, such as magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, is challenging as it often involves accurately identifying multiple individual structures with complex geometries within a large volume under investigation. Most deeplearning approaches address these challenges by enhancing their learning capability through a substantial increase in trainable parameters within their models. An increased model complexity will incur high computational costs and large memory requirements unsuitable for real-time implementation on standard clinical workstations, as clinical imaging systems typically have low-end computer hardware with limited memory and CPU resources only. This paper presents a compact convolutional neural network (CAN3D) designed specifically for clinical workstations and allows the segmentation of large 3D Magnetic Resonance (MR) images in real-time. The proposed CAN3D has a shallow memory footprint to reduce the number of model parameters and computer memory required for state-of-the-art performance and maintain data integrity by directly processing large full-size 3D image input volumes with no patches required. The proposed architecture significantly reduces computational costs, especially for inference using the CPU. We also develop a novel loss function with extra shape constraints to improve segmentation accuracy for imbalanced classes in 3D MR images. Compared to state-of-the-art approaches (U-Net3D, improved U-Net3D and V-Net), CAN3D reduced the number of parameters up to two orders of magnitude and achieved much faster inference, up to 5 times when predicting with a standard commercial CPU (instead of GPU). For the open-access OAI-ZIB knee MR dataset, in comparison with manual segmentation, CAN3D achieved Dice coefficient values of (mean = 0.87 +/- 0.02 and 0.85 +/- 0.04) with mean surface distance errors (mean = 0.36 +/- 0.32 mm and 0.29 +/- 0.10 mm) for imbalanced classes such as (femoral and tibial) ca

All marine life is put at peril when oil spills damage the marine ecosystem. Sea otters, and birds lose their natural protection against the cold and wet because oil breaks down their natural insulation and leads to hypothermia, therefore oil must be cleaned. Some of the effective ways of cleaning oils can include using chemical solvents, skimmers and dispersants and other methods. But all these methods have its own disadvantages when oils get dispersed from one place to another place in the ocean. Many methods like random-walk method, noise removal, and dark spot detection are used. Compared to these methods Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has high computing and processing ability, the CNN architecture that may be used to semantically split SAR pictures into several categories. The suggested CNN is optimized for use as there is no physical contact required and also not implementing the sensors in ocean that could be costly. The advantages of the present Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) are CNNs have been shown to achieve high accuracy in a variety of computer vision tasks, including image classification, object detection, and segmentation. It has the Ability to learn complex features, Robustness to noise and real-time performance while other methods fail to do. The oil is detected the alert message is sent as an SMS to the administrator.

Automated examination of biomedical signals plays a vital role to diagnose diseases and offers useful data to several applications in the areas of physiology, sports medicine, and human-computer interface. The latest advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have the ability to manage and analyse enormous biomedical datasets resulting in clinical decision making and realtime applications. At the same time, Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most deadly disease affecting people over the globe. The utilization of AI techniques for the earlier identification of CRC has gained significant interest among the research communities. Therefore, this paper presents a novel AI based fusion model for CRC disease diagnosis and classification, named AIFM-CRC. The presented AIFM-CRC model primarily undergoes Gaussian filtering based noise removal and contrast enhancement as a preprocessing stage. In addition, a fusion based feature extraction process takes place where the SIFT based handcrafted features and Inception v4 based deep features are fused together. Besides, whale optimization algorithm tuned deep support vector machine model is employed as a classification technique to determine the existence of CRC. In order to highlight the proficient results analysis of the AIFM-CRC model, a comprehensive simulation analysis takes place. The resultant experimental values pointed out the betterment of the AIFM-CRC model by accomplishing a maximum accuracy of 96.18%.
