Robust Lane Detection Through Self Pre-Training With Masked Sequential Autoencoders and Fine-Tuning With Customized PolyLoss

Lane detection is crucial for vehicle localization which makes it the foundation for automated driving and many intelligent and advanced driving assistant systems. Available vision-based lane detection methods do not make full use of the valuable features and aggregate contextual information, especially the interrelationships between lane...

DeepPick: A Deep Learning Approach to Unveil Outstanding Users Ranking with Public Attainable Features

Outstanding users (OUs) denote the influential, 'core' or 'bridge' users in online social networks. How to accurately detect and rank them is an important problem for third-party online service providers and researchers. Conventional efforts, ranging from early graph-based algorithms to recent machine learning-based approaches, typically rely on...

Short-Term Traffic Flow Prediction Based on the Efficient Hinging Hyperplanes Neural Network

Traffic flow (TF) prediction is an important and yet a challenging task in transportation systems, since the TF involves high nonlinearities and is affected by many elements. Recently, neural networks have attracted much attention for TF prediction, but they are commonly black boxes with complex architectures and difficult to be interpreted,...

Belt conveyor is considered as a momentous component of modern coal mining transportation system, and thus it is an essential task to diagnose and monitor the damage of belt in real time and accurately. Based on the deep learning algorithm, this present study proposes a method of conveyor belt damage detection based on ADCN (Adaptive Deep...

Hierarchical Prediction of Registration Misalignment using a Convolutional LSTM: Application to Chest CT Scans

In this paper we propose a supervised method to predict registration misalignment using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). This task is casted to a classification problem with multiple classes of misalignment: 'correct' 0-3 mm, 'poor' 3-6 mm and 'wrong' over 6 mm. Rather than a direct prediction, we propose a hierarchical approach, where...

Interactive Learning of Temporal Features for Control: Shaping Policies and State Representations From Human Feedback

Current ongoing industry revolution demands more flexible products, including robots in household environments and medium-scale factories. Such robots should be able to adapt to new conditions and environments and be programmed with ease. As an example, let us suppose that there are robot manipulators working on an industrial production line and...

Automatic Defect Detection of Fasteners on the Catenary Support Device Using Deep Convolutional Neural Network

The excitation and vibration triggered by the long-term operation of railway vehicles inevitably result in defective states of catenary support devices. With the massive construction of high-speed electrified railways, automatic defect detection of diverse and plentiful fasteners on the catenary support device is of great significance for...

Biometric palmprint verification: A dynamical system approach

Most of the existing techniques for palmprint recognition rely on metrics, typically based on static functions, which evaluate the distance between a pair of features. In this paper, we propose a new technique for palmprint verification based on a dynamical system approach for principal palm lines matching. The proposed dynamic algorithm is...

Deep convolutional neural networks for detection of rail surface defects

In this paper, we propose a deep convolutional neural network solution to the analysis of image data for the detection of rail surface defects. The images are obtained from many hours of automated video recordings. This huge amount of data makes it impossible to manually inspect the images and detect rail surface defects. Therefore, automated...
