Gender prediction accuracy increases as convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture evolves. This paper compares voting and ensemble schemes to utilize the already trained five CNN models to further improve gender prediction accuracy. The majority voting usually requires odd-numbered models while the proposed softmax-based voting can utilize any number of models to improve accuracy. The ensemble of CNN models combined with one more fully-connected layer requires further tuning or training of the models combined. With experiments, it is observed that the voting or ensemble of CNN models leads to further improvement of gender prediction accuracy and that especially softmax-based voters always show better gender prediction accuracy than majority voters. Also, compared with softmax-based voters, ensemble models show a slightly better or similar accuracy with added training of the combined CNN models. Softmax-based voting can be a fast and efficient way to get better accuracy without further training since the selection of the top accuracy models among available CNN pre-trained models usually leads to similar accuracy to that of the corresponding ensemble models.

Recently, several high-performance instance segmentation models have used the Mask R-CNN model as a baseline, which reached a historical peak in instance segmentation in 2017. There are numerous derived models using the Mask R-CNN model, and if the performance of Mask R-CNN is improved, the performance of the derived models is also anticipated to improve. The Mask R-CNN uses interpolation to adjust the image size, and the input differs depending on the interpolation method. Therefore, in this study, the performance change of Mask R-CNN was compared when various interpolation methods were applied to the transform layer to improve the performance of Mask R-CNN. To train and evaluate the models, this study utilized the PennFudan and Balloon datasets and the AP metric was used to evaluate model performance. As a result of the experiment, the derived Mask R-CNN model showed the best performance when bicubic interpolation was used in the transform layer.

Recently, a convolutional neural network (CNN) models at single image super-resolution have been very successful. Residual learning improves training stability and network performance in CNN. In this paper, we compare four convolutional neural network models for super-resolution (SR) to learn nonlinear mapping from low-resolution (LR) input image to high-resolution (HR) target image. Four models include general CNN model, global residual learning CNN model, local residual learning CNN model, and the CNN model with global and local residual learning. Experiment results show that the results are greatly affected by how skip connections are connected at the basic CNN network, and network trained with only global residual learning generates highest performance among four models at objective and subjective evaluations.

Trajectory prediction is an essential element for driving autonomous vehicles, and various trajectory prediction models have emerged with the development of deep learning technology. Convolutional neural network (CNN) is the most commonly used neural network architecture for extracting the features of visual images, and the latest models exhibit high performances. This study was conducted to identify an efficient CNN backbone model among the components of deep learning models for trajectory prediction. We changed the existing CNN backbone network of multiple-trajectory prediction models used as feature extractors to various state-of-the-art CNN models. The experiment was conducted using nuScenes, which is a dataset used for the development of autonomous vehicles. The results of each model were compared using frequently used evaluation metrics for trajectory prediction. Analyzing the impact of the backbone can improve the performance of the trajectory prediction task. Investigating the influence of the backbone on multiple deep learning models can be a future challenge.

차세대 무선 통신기술로 알려져 있는 Optical Camera Communication(OCC)은 많은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 이러한 OCC 기술은 통신 환경에 의해 성능이 좌우되며 이를 개선하기 위해 다양한 전략이 연구되고 있다. 그중 가장 두각을 나타내고 있는 방법은 딥러닝 기술을 사용하여 OCC의 수신기에 CNN을 적용하는 방법이다. 하지만 대부분의 연구에서는 CNN을 단순히 송신기를 검출하는데 사용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 CNN을 송신기 검출 뿐만 아니라 Rx 복조 시스템에 적용하여 실험한다. 그리고 OCC 시스템의 데이터 이미지는 다른 이미지 데이터셋과는 다르게 비교적 분류가 간단하기 때문에 대부분의 CNN 모델에서 높은 정확도의 결과가 나타날 것이라는 가설을 세웠다. 가설을 증명하기 위해 OCC 시스템을 설계 및 구현하여 데이터를 수집하였고 12가지의 다양한 CNN 모델에 적용하여 실험했다. 실험 결과 파라미터수가 많은 고성능의 CNN 모델 뿐만 아니라 경량화 CNN 모델에서도 99% 이상의 정확도를 달성하였고 이를 통해 스마트폰과 같은 저성능 계산 장치에 OCC 시스템 적용이 가능함을 확인했다.

It is important to identify the location of ship hull blocks with exact block identification number when scheduling the shipbuilding process. The wrong information on the location and identification number of some hull block can cause low productivity by spending time to find where the exact hull block is. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to equip the system to track the location of the blocks and to identify the identification numbers of the blocks automatically. There were a lot of researches of location tracking system for the hull blocks on the stockyard. However there has been no research to identify the hull blocks on the stockyard. This study compares the performance of 5 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models with multi-view image set on the classification of the hull blocks to identify the blocks on the stockyard. The CNN models are open algorithms of ImageNet Large-Scale Visual Recognition Competition (ILSVRC). Four scaled hull block models are used to acquire the images of ship hull blocks. Learning and transfer learning of the CNN models with original training data and augmented data of the original training data were done. 20 tests and predictions in consideration of five CNN models and four cases of training conditions are performed. In order to compare the classification performance of the CNN models, accuracy and average F1-Score from confusion matrix are adopted as the performance measures. As a result of the comparison, Resnet-152v2 model shows the highest accuracy and average F1-Score with full block prediction image set and with cropped block prediction image set.

CNN 기반 인공신경망은 영상 분류, 객체 인식, 화질 개선 등 다양한 분야에서 뛰어난 성능을 보이고 있다. 그러나, 많은 응용에서 딥러닝(Deep Learning) 모델의 복잡도 및 연산량이 방대해짐에 따라 IoT 기기 및 모바일 환경에 적용하기에는 제한이 따른다. 따라서 기존 딥러닝 모델의 성능을 유지하면서 모델 크기를 줄이는 인공신경망 압축 기법이 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 인공신경망 압축기법을 통하여 원본 CNN 모델을 압축하고, 압축된 모델을 임베디드 시스템 환경에서 그 성능을 검증한다. 성능 검증을 위해 인공지능 지원 맞춤형 칩인 QCS605를 내장한 임베디드 보드에서 카메라로 입력한 영상에 대해서 원 CNN 모델과 압축 CNN 모델의 분류성능과 추론시간을 비교 분석한다. 본 논문에서는 이미지 분류 CNN 모델인 MobileNetV2, ResNet50 및 VGG-16에 가지치기(pruning) 및 행렬분해의 인공신경망 압축 기법을 적용하였고, 실험결과에서 압축된 모델이 원본 모델 분류 성능 대비 2% 미만의 손실에서 모델의 크기를 1.3 ~ 11.2배로 압축했을 뿐만 아니라 보드에서 추론시간과 메모리 소모량을 각각 1.2 ~ 2.1배, 1.2 ~ 3.8배 감소함을 확인했다.

Recently, transfer learning techniques with a base convolutional neural network (CNN) model have widely gained acceptance in early detection and classification of crop diseases to increase agricultural productivity with reducing disease spread. The transfer learning techniques based classifiers generally achieve over 90% of classification accuracy for crop diseases using dataset of crop leaf images (e.g., PlantVillage dataset), but they have ability to classify only the pre-trained diseases. This paper provides with an evaluation scheme on selecting an effective base CNN model for crop disease transfer learning with regard to the accuracy of trained target crops as well as of untrained target crops. First, we present transfer learning models called CDC (crop disease classification) architecture including widely used base (pre-trained) CNN models. We evaluate each performance of seven base CNN models for four untrained crops. The results of performance evaluation show that the DenseNet201 is one of the best base CNN models.

To address the problems of low precision rate, insufficient feature extraction, and poor contextual ability in existing text sentiment analysis methods, a mixed model account of a CNN-BiLSTM-TE (convolutional neural network, bidirectional long short-term memory, and topic extraction) model was proposed. First, Chinese text data was converted into vectors through the method of transfer learning by Word2Vec. Second, local features were extracted by the CNN model. Then, contextual information was extracted by the BiLSTM neural network and the emotional tendency was obtained using softmax. Finally, topics were extracted by the term frequency-inverse document frequency and K-means. Compared with the CNN, BiLSTM, and gate recurrent unit (GRU) models, the CNN-BiLSTM-TE model's F1-score was higher than other models by 0.0147, 0.006, and 0.0052, respectively. Then compared with CNN-LSTM, LSTM-CNN, and BiLSTM-CNN models, the F1-score was higher by 0.0071, 0.0038, and 0.0049, respectively. Experimental results showed that the CNN-BiLSTM-TE model can effectively improve various indicators in application. Lastly, performed scalability verification through a takeaway dataset, which has great value in practical applications.

단백질은 모든 생명 활동의 기본 단위이며, 이를 이해하는 것은 생명 현상을 연구하는 데 필수적이다. 인공신경망을 이용한 기계학습 방법론이 대두된 이후로 많은 연구자들이 단백질 서열만을 사용하여 단백질의 기능을 예측하고자 하였다. 많은 조합의 딥러닝 모델이 학계에 보고되었으나 그 방법은 제각각이며 정형화된 방법론이 없고, 각기 다른 데이터에 맞춰져있어 어떤 알고리즘이 더 단백질 데이터를 다루는 데 적합한지 직접 비교분석 된 적이 없다. 본 논문에서는 단백질의 기능을 예측하는 융합 분야에서 가장 많이 사용되는 대표 알고리즘인 CNN, LSTM, GRU 모델과 이를 이용한 두가지 결합 모델에 동일 데이터를 적용하여 각 알고리즘의 단일 모델 성능과 결합 모델의 성능을 정확도와 속도를 기준으로 비교 평가하였으며 최종 평가 척도를 마이크로 정밀도, 재현율, F1 점수로 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통해 단순 분류 문제에서 단일 모델로 LSTM의 성능이 준수하고, 복잡한 분류 문제에서는 단일 모델로 중첩 CNN이 더 적합하며, 결합 모델로 CNN-LSTM의 연계 모델이 상대적으로 더 우수함을 확인하였다.
