In this paper, as a liberal arts course for non-majors, we developed a basic practice case for convolutional neural networks, which is essential for designing a basic convolutional neural network course curriculum. The developed practice case focuses on understanding the working principle of the convolutional neural network and uses a spreadsheet to check the entire visualized process. The developed practice case consisted of generating supervised learning method image training data, implementing the input layer, convolution layer (convolutional layer), pooling layer, and output layer sequentially, and testing the performance of the convolutional neural network on new data. By extending the practice cases developed in this paper, the number of images to be recognized can be expanded, or basic practice cases can be made to create a convolutional neural network that increases the compression rate for high-quality images. Therefore, it can be said that the utility of this convolutional neural network basic practice case is high.

This paper is a study to evaluate the performance when classifying explosive components by capacity using a convolutional neural network (CNN). Among the existing explosive classification methods, the IMS steam detector method determines the presence or absence of an explosive only when the explosive concentration exceeds the threshold set by the user. The IMS steam detector has a problem of determining that even if an explosive exists, the explosive does not exist in an amount that does not exceed the threshold. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the explosive component even when the concentration of the explosive component does not exceed the threshold. Accordingly, in this paper, after imaging explosive time series data with the Gramian Angular Field (GAF) algorithm, it is possible to determine whether there are explosive components and the amount of explosive components even when the concentration of explosive components does not exceed a threshold.

In this study, we developed a deep learning and vision sensor-based assembly performance evaluation method isfor prefabricated steel structures. The assembly parts were segmented using a modified version of the receptive field block convolution module inspired by the eccentric function of the human visual system. The quality of the assembly was evaluated by detecting the bolt holes in the segmented assembly part and calculating the bolt hole positions. To validate the performance of the evaluation, models of standard and defective assembly parts were produced using a 3D printer. The assembly part segmentation network was trained based on the 3D model images captured from a vision sensor. The sbolt hole positions in the segmented assembly image were calculated using image processing techniques, and the assembly performance evaluation using the k-nearest neighbor algorithm was verified. The experimental results show that the assembly parts were segmented with high precision, and the assembly performance based on the positions of the bolt holes in the detected assembly part was evaluated with a classification error of less than 5%.

Ecological research relies on the interpretation of large amounts of visual data obtained from extensive wildlife surveys, but such large-scale image interpretation is costly and time-consuming. Using an artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning model, especially convolution neural networks (CNN), it is possible to streamline these manual tasks on image information and to protect wildlife and record and predict behavior. Ecological research using deep-learning-based object recognition technology includes various research purposes such as identifying, detecting, and identifying species of wild animals, and identification of the location of poachers in real-time. These advances in the application of AI technology can enable efficient management of endangered wildlife, animal detection in various environments, and real-time analysis of image information collected by unmanned aerial vehicles. Furthermore, the need for school education and social use on biodiversity and environmental issues using AI is raised. School education and citizen science related to ecological activities using AI technology can enhance environmental awareness, and strengthen more knowledge and problem-solving skills in science and research processes. Under these prospects, in this paper, we compare the results of our early 2013 study, which automatically identified African cichlid fish species using photographic data of them, with the results of reanalysis by CNN deep learning method. By using PyTorch and PyTorch Lightning frameworks, we achieve an accuracy of 82.54% and an F1-score of 0.77 with minimal programming and data preprocessing effort. This is a significant improvement over the previous our machine learning methods, which required heavy feature engineering costs and had 78% accuracy.

The intelligent production plant called smart factories that apply information and communication technology (ICT) are collecting data in real time through various sensors. Recently, researches that effectively applying to these collected data have gained a lot of attention. This paper proposes a method for the tool condition monitoring based on the sound signal generated in machining process. First, it not only detects a fault tool, but also presents various tool states according to idle and active operation. The second, it's to represent the power spectrum of the sounds as images and apply some transformations on them in order to reveal, expose, and emphasize the health patterns that are hidden inside them. Finally, the contrast-enhanced PSD image obtained is diagnosed by using CNN. The results of the experiments demonstrate the high discrimination potential afforded by the proposed sound PSD image + CNN and show high diagnostic results according to the tool status.

Blurred image is an important factor in lowering image recognition rates in Computer vision. This mainly occurs when the camera is unstablely out of focus or the object in the scene moves quickly during the exposure time. Blurred images greatly degrade visual quality, weakening visibility, and this phenomenon occurs frequently despite the continuous development digital camera technology. In this paper, it replace the modified building module based on the Deep multi-patch neural network designed with convolution neural networks to capture details of input images and Attention techniques to focus on objects in blurred images in many ways and strengthen the image. It measures and assigns each weight at different scales to differentiate the blurring of change and restores from rough to fine levels of the image to adjust both global and local region sequentially. Through this method, it show excellent results that recover degraded image quality, extract efficient object detection and features, and complement color constancy.

The majority of IoT devices already employ AIoT, however there are still numerous issues that need to be resolved before AI applications can be deployed. In order to more effectively distribute IoT edge resources, this paper propose a machine learning-based approach to managing IoT edge resources. The suggested method constantly improves the allocation of IoT resources by identifying IoT edge resource trends using machine learning. IoT resources that have been optimized make use of machine learning convolution to reliably sustain IoT edge resources that are always changing. By storing each machine learning-based IoT edge resource as a hash value alongside the resource of the previous pattern, the suggested approach effectively verifies the resource as an attack pattern in a distributed AIoT context. Experimental results evaluate energy efficiency in three different test scenarios to verify the integrity of IoT Edge resources to see if they work well in complex environments with heterogeneous computational hardware.

Innovation and rapid increased functionality in user friendly smartphones has encouraged shutterbugs to have picturesque image macros while in work environment or during travel. Formal signboards are placed with marketing objectives and are enriched with text for attracting people. Extracting and recognition of the text from natural images is an emerging research issue and needs consideration. When compared to conventional optical character recognition (OCR), the complex background, implicit noise, lighting, and orientation of these scenic text photos make this problem more difficult. Arabic language text scene extraction and recognition adds a number of complications and difficulties. The method described in this paper uses a two-phase methodology to extract Arabic text and word boundaries awareness from scenic images with varying text orientations. The first stage uses a convolution autoencoder, and the second uses Arabic Character Segmentation (ACS), which is followed by traditional two-layer neural networks for recognition. This study presents the way that how can an Arabic training and synthetic dataset be created for exemplify the superimposed text in different scene images. For this purpose a dataset of size 10K of cropped images has been created in the detection phase wherein Arabic text was found and 127k Arabic character dataset for the recognition phase. The phase-1 labels were generated from an Arabic corpus of quotes and sentences, which consists of 15kquotes and sentences. This study ensures that Arabic Word Awareness Region Detection (AWARD) approach with high flexibility in identifying complex Arabic text scene images, such as texts that are arbitrarily oriented, curved, or deformed, is used to detect these texts. Our research after experimentations shows that the system has a 91.8% word segmentation accuracy and a 94.2% character recognition accuracy. We believe in the future that the researchers will excel in the field of image processing while treating text images to improve or reduce noise by processing scene images in any language by enhancing the functionality of VGG-16 based model using Neural Networks.
