Nailfold capillaroscopy is a simple, non-invasive clinical aid used for the diagnosis of vascular dysfunction. The method proposed emphasizes on the USB Digital Microscope which is a cheaper and useful alternative to commercially available expensive videocapillaroscopes which produces high...

This article describes how images could be forged using different techniques, and the most common forgery is copy-move forgery, in which a part of an image is duplicated and placed elsewhere in the same image. This article describes a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based method to accurately...

Previously, it was taken for granted that features learned for classification can also be used for ranking. However, ranking problems possess some distinctive properties, e.g., the ordinal class labels, which indicates the necessity of developing new feature learning procedures dedicated for...

Rapid diagnosis of symptoms caused by pest attack, diseases and nutritional or physiological disorders in apple orchards is essential to avoid greater losses. This paper aimed to evaluate the efficiency of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to automatically detect and classify symptoms of...

The aim of this project is to analyze high-frequency GPS location data (second per second) of individual car drivers (and trips). We extract feature information about speeds, acceleration, deceleration, and changes of direction from this high-frequency GPS location data. Time series of this...

This paper proposes a novel approach, based on convolutional neural network (CNN) models, that forecasts the short-term crude oil futures prices with good performance. In our study, we confirm that artificial intelligence (AI)-based deep-learning approaches can provide more accurate forecasts of...

Variations of dedicated process conditions (such as workpiece and tool properties) yield different process state evolutions, which are reflected by different time series of the observable quantities (process curves). A novel method is presented, which firstly allows to extract the statistical...
