Scale Learning in Scale-Equivariant Convolutional networks

In real-life scenarios, there are many variations in sizes of objects of the same category and the objects are not always placed at a fixed distance from the camera. This results in objects taking up an arbitrary size of pixels in the image. Vanilla CNNs are by design only translation equivariant and thus have to learn separate filters for...

Side-Channel Attacks using Convolutional Neural Networks: A Study on the performance of Convolutional Neural Networks on side-channel data

Side-Channel Attacks, are a prominent type of attacks, used to break cryptographic implementations on a computing system. They are based on information "leaked" by the hardware of a computing system, rather than the encryption algorithm itself. Recent studies showed that Side-Channel Attacks can be performed using Deep Learning models. In this...

Automated malaria diagnosis using convolutional neural networks in an on-field setting: The analysis of low quality smartphone based microscope images

This study focuses on automated malaria diagnosis in low quality blood smear images, captured by a low-cost smartphone based microscope system. The aim is to localize and classify the healthy and infected erythrocytes (red blood cells) in order to evaluate the parasitaemia in an infected blood smear. Due to the lower quality of the smartphone...
