Öğe Abalone age prediction using machine learning(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Guney, Seda; Kilinc, Irem; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Jamil, AkhtarAbalone is a marine snail found in the cold coastal regions. Age is a vital characteristic that is used to determine its worth. Currently, the only viable solution to determine the age of abalone is through very detailed steps in a laboratory. This paper exploits various machine learning models for determining its age. A comprehensive analysis of various machine learning algorithms for abalone age prediction is performed which include, backpropagation feed-forward neural network (BPFFNN), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Gauss Naive Bayes, and Support Vector Machine (SVM). In addition, five different optimizers were also tested with BPFFNN to evaluate their effect on its performance. Comprehensive experiments were performed using our data set. © 2022, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Öğe Adaptive FEM-BPNN model for predicting underground cable temperature considering varied soil composition(Elsevier - Division Reed Elsevier India Pvt Ltd, 2024) Al-Dulaimi, Abdullah Ahmed; Guneser, Muhammet Tahir; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Marquez, Fausto Pedro Garcia; Gouda, Osama E.In underground cables of power systems, the maximum temperature of the cable is a crucial factor in determining its capacity. According to standards, the permissible operating temperature for the XLPE cable conductor under steady-state conditions is 90 degree celsius - a limit that should not be exceeded. Exceeding this temperature may lead to a thermal breakdown in the cable insulation, thereby resulting in interruption of the electrical power supply. Many factors affect the cable temperature, particularly through the processes of heat dissipation and diffusion from the cable into its surroundings. These factors include soil types and compositions, cable installation configuration, and thermo physical properties; therefore, accurate analysis of these factors is crucial for cable loading. In this study, the finite element method (FEM) is employed to predict the cable temperature considering different soil compositions and to present a new approach for the thermal analysis of an underground cable system. The novel approach considers various environmental conditions including single-layer and multi-layer soil types, homogeneous and non-homogeneous soil compositions, two configuration types - flat and trefoil - as well as two types of backfill materials, specifically sand-cement mixture backfill (SCMB) and fluidized thermal backfill (FTB), and dry zones to offer deeper insight into a thermal analysis. Given that the FEM requires the construction of a complex geometric model within an optimal operating condition to obtain results with high accuracy-a process that can often be complex as well as not adaptable because it depends on constant mathematical calculation-This paper presents a novel approach FEM-BPNN that uses an adaptive Backpropagation neural networks (BPNN) model as its mainstay. The proposed BPNN model exploits historical data from FEM to refine its predictive power, therefore, increasing its efficiency and accuracy. Furthermore, the model is subject to an optimization process, adjusting and refining its internal parameters in response to new data, with the ultimate goal of improving the predictive model capabilities for the temperature of underground power cables. The results underscored the high performance of FEM in the simulation, and it was observed that FEM yielded results closely aligned with those of the IEC standard. Moreover, the proposed FEM-BPNN demonstrated exceptional accuracy, achieving a low RMSE score of 0.008. It also exhibited impressive performance in the linear regression analysis, with an R-2 value of 0.99. These metrics collectively signify the robustness and efficacy of the model.Öğe Ant Colony and Whale Optimization Algorithms Aided by Neural Networks for Optimum Skin Lesion Diagnosis: A Thorough Review(Mdpi, 2024) Mukhlif, Yasir Adil; Ramaha, Nehad T. A.; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Salman, Mohammad; Yon, Dong Keon; Fitriyani, Norma Latif; Syafrudin, MuhammadThe adoption of deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) has surged in recent years because of their imperative practicalities in different disciplines. Among these feasible workabilities are the noteworthy contributions of ML and DL, especially ant colony optimization (ACO) and whale optimization algorithm (WOA) ameliorated with neural networks (NNs) to identify specific categories of skin lesion disorders (SLD) precisely, supporting even high-experienced healthcare providers (HCPs) in performing flexible medical diagnoses, since historical patient databases would not necessarily help diagnose other patient situations. Unfortunately, there is a shortage of rich investigations respecting the contributory influences of ACO and WOA in the SLD classification, owing to the recent adoption of ML and DL in the medical field. Accordingly, a comprehensive review is conducted to shed light on relevant ACO and WOA functionalities for enhanced SLD identification. It is hoped, relying on the overview findings, that clinical practitioners and low-experienced or talented HCPs could benefit in categorizing the most proper therapeutical procedures for their patients by referring to a collection of abundant practicalities of those two models in the medical context, particularly (a) time, cost, and effort savings, and (b) upgraded accuracy, reliability, and performance compared with manual medical inspection mechanisms that repeatedly fail to correctly diagnose all patients.Öğe Artificial intelligence approach for modeling house price prediction(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Çekiç, Melihşah; Korkmaz, Kübra Nur; Mukus, Habib; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Jamil, Akhtar; Soleimani, FaezehIndexed keywords SciVal Topics Abstract Real estate has a vast market volume across the globe. This domain has been growing significantly in the past few decades. An accurate prediction can help buyers, and other decision-makers make better decisions. However, developing a model that can effectively predict house prices in complex environments is still a challenging task. This paper proposes machine learning models for the accurate prediction of real estate house prices. Furthermore, we investigated the feature importance and various data analysis methods to improve the prediction accuracy. Linear Regression, Decision Tree, XGBoost, Extra Trees, and Random Forest were used in this study. For all models, hyperparameters were first calculated using k-fold cross-validation, and then they were trained to apply to test data. The models were tested on the Boston housing dataset. The proposed method was evaluated using Root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and coefficient of determination (R2) metrics.Öğe Assessing the spreading behavior of the Covid-19 epidemic: a case study of Turkey(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Demir, Erdem; Canıtez, Muhammed Nafiz; Elazab, Mohamed; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Jamil, Akhtar; Al-Dulaimi, Abdullah AhmedCoronavirus (Covid-19) disease is a rapidly spreading type of virus that was discovered in Wuhan, China, and emerged towards the end of 2019. During this period, various studies were conducted, and intensive studies are continued in different fields regarding coronavirus, especially in the field of medicine. The virus continues to spread and is yet to be controlled fully. Machine learning is a well-explored field in the domain of computer science that can learn patterns based on existing data and make predictions on new data. This study focused on using various machine learning approaches for predicting the spreading behavior of the COVID-19 virus. The models that were considered include SARIMAX, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Linear Regression (LR), Decision Tree (DT), Gradient Boosting (GB), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The models were trained and then predictions were made by applying these models to the daily updated data provided by the Turkish Ministry of Health. Experiments on the test data showed that both XGBoost and Decision Tree models outperformed other models.Öğe Automated Classification of Snow-Covered Solar Panel Surfaces Based on Deep Learning Approaches(Tech Science Press, 2023) Al-Dulaimi, Abdullah Ahmed; Guneser, Muhammet Tahir; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Salman, Mohammad ShukriRecently, the demand for renewable energy has increased due to its environmental and economic needs. Solar panels are the mainstay for dealing with solar energy and converting it into another form of usable energy. Solar panels work under suitable climatic conditions that allow the light photons to access the solar cells, as any blocking of sunlight on these cells causes a halt in the panels work and restricts the carry of these photons. Thus, the panels are unable to work under these conditions. A layer of snow forms on the solar panels due to snowfall in areas with low temperatures. Therefore, it causes an insulating layer on solar panels and the inability to produce electrical energy. The detection of snow-covered solar panels is crucial, as it allows us the opportunity to remove snow using some heating techniques more efficiently and restore the photovoltaics system to proper operation. This paper presents five deep learning models,-16,-19, ESNET-18, ? ESNET-50, and ? ESNET-101, which are used for the recognition and classification of solar panel images. In this paper, two different cases were applied; the first case is performed on the original dataset without trying any kind of preprocessing, and the second case is extreme climate conditions and simulated by generating motion noise. Furthermore, the dataset was replicated using the upsampling technique in order to handle the unbalancing issue. The conducted dataset is divided into three different categories, namely; all_snow, no_snow, and partial snow. The five models are trained, validated, and tested on this dataset under the same conditions 60% training, 20% validation, and testing 20% for both cases. The accuracy of the models has been compared and verified to distinguish and classify the processed dataset. The accuracy results in the first case show that the compared models-16,-19, ESNET-18, andESNET-50 give 0.9592, while R ESNET-101 gives 0.9694. In the second case, the models outperformed their counterparts in the first case by evaluating performance, where the accuracy results reached 1.00, 0.9545, 0.9888, 1.00. and 1.00 for-16,-19, R ESNET-18 and R ESNET-50, respectively. Consequently, we conclude that the second case models outperformed their peers.Öğe Auxiliary learning of non-monotonic hyperparameter scheduling system via grid search(2022) Hameed, Alaa AliRecent advancements in advanced neural networks have given rise to new adaptive learning strategies. Conventional learning strategies suffer from many issues, such as slow convergence and lack of robustness. To fully exploit its potential, these issues must be resolved. Both issues are related to the step-size, and momentum term, which is generally fixed and remains uniform for all weights associated with each network layer. In this study, the recently published Back-Propagation Algorithm with Variable Adaptive Momentum (BPVAM) algorithm has been proposed to overcome these issues and improve effectiveness for classification. The study was conducted on various hyperparameters based on the grid search approach, then the optimal values of hyperparameters have trained these algorithms. Six cases were considered with varying values of the hyperparameter to evaluate the impact of the hyperparameter on the training models. It is empirically proven that the convergence behavior of the model is improved in terms of the mean and standard deviation for accuracy and the sum of squared error (SSE). A comprehensive set of experiments indicated that the BPVAM is a robust and highly efficient algorithm.Öğe Brain Pathology Classification of MR Images Using Machine Learning Techniques(Mdpi, 2023) Ramaha, Nehad T. A.; Mahmood, Ruaa M.; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Fitriyani, Norma Latif; Alfian, Ganjar; Syafrudin, MuhammadA brain tumor is essentially a collection of aberrant tissues, so it is crucial to classify tumors of the brain using MRI before beginning therapy. Tumor segmentation and classification from brain MRI scans using machine learning techniques are widely recognized as challenging and important tasks. The potential applications of machine learning in diagnostics, preoperative planning, and postoperative evaluations are substantial. Accurate determination of the tumor's location on a brain MRI is of paramount importance. The advancement of precise machine learning classifiers and other technologies will enable doctors to detect malignancies without requiring invasive procedures on patients. Pre-processing, skull stripping, and tumor segmentation are the steps involved in detecting a brain tumor and measurement (size and form). After a certain period, CNN models get overfitted because of the large number of training images used to train them. That is why this study uses deep CNN to transfer learning. CNN-based Relu architecture and SVM with fused retrieved features via HOG and LPB are used to classify brain MRI tumors (glioma or meningioma). The method's efficacy is measured in terms of precision, recall, F-measure, and accuracy. This study showed that the accuracy of the SVM with combined LBP with HOG is 97%, and the deep CNN is 98%.Öğe Consequential Advancements of Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) in Deep Learning Contexts(Mdpi, 2024) Abdulrazzaq, Mohammed Majid; Ramaha, Nehad T. A.; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Salman, Mohammad; Yon, Dong Keon; Fitriyani, Norma Latif; Syafrudin, MuhammadSelf-supervised learning (SSL) is a potential deep learning (DL) technique that uses massive volumes of unlabeled data to train neural networks. SSL techniques have evolved in response to the poor classification performance of conventional and even modern machine learning (ML) and DL models of enormous unlabeled data produced periodically in different disciplines. However, the literature does not fully address SSL's practicalities and workabilities necessary for industrial engineering and medicine. Accordingly, this thorough review is administered to identify these prominent possibilities for prediction, focusing on industrial and medical fields. This extensive survey, with its pivotal outcomes, could support industrial engineers and medical personnel in efficiently predicting machinery faults and patients' ailments without referring to traditional numerical models that require massive computational budgets, time, storage, and effort for data annotation. Additionally, the review's numerous addressed ideas could encourage industry and healthcare actors to take SSL principles into an agile application to achieve precise maintenance prognostics and illness diagnosis with remarkable levels of accuracy and feasibility, simulating functional human thinking and cognition without compromising prediction efficacy.Öğe Deep learning for liver disease prediction(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Mutlu, Ebru Nur; Devim, Ayse; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Jamil, AkhtarMining meaningful information from huge medical datasets is a key aspect of automated disease diagnosis. In recent years, liver disease has emerged as one of the commonly occurring diseases across the world. In this paper, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based model is proposed for the identification of liver disease. Furthermore, the performance of CNN was also compared with traditional machine learning approaches, which include Naive Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Logistic Regression (LR). For evaluation, two datasets were used: BUPA and ILPD. The experimental results showed that CNN was effective for the classification of liver disease, which produced an accuracy of 75.55%, and 72.00% on the BUPA and ILPD datasets, respectively. © 2022, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Öğe Deep learning-based framework for monitoring of debris-covered glacier from remotely sensed images(Elsevier Science, 2022) Khan, Aftab Ahmeda; Jamil, Akhtarb; Jamil A.; Hussain, Dostdara; Ali, Imrana; Hameed, Alaa AliIn recent years, deep learning (DL) methods have proven their efficiency for various computer vision (CV) tasks such as image classification, natural language processing, and object detection. However, training a DL model is expensive in terms of both complex- ities of the network structure and the amount of labeled data needed. In addition, the imbalance among available labeled data for dif- ferent classes of interest may also adversely affect the model accuracy. This paper addresses these issues using a new convolutional neural network (CNN) based architecture. The proposed network incorporates both spatial and spectral information that combines two sub- networks: spatial-CNN and spectral-CNN. The spectral-CNN extracts spectral information, while spatial-CNN captures spatial infor- mation. Moreover, to make the features more robust, a multiscale spatial CNN architecture is introduced using different kernels. The final feature vector is formed by concatenating the outputs obtained from both spatial-CNN and spectral-CNN. To address the data imbalance problem, a generative adversarial network (GAN) was used to generate data for the underrepresented class. Finally, relatively a shallower network architecture was used to reduce the number of parameters in the network and improve the processing speed. The proposed model was trained and tested on Senitel-2 images for the classification of the debris-covered glacier. The results showed that the proposed method is well-suited for mapping and monitoring debris-covered glaciers at a large scale with high classification accuracy. In addition, we compared the proposed method with conventional machine learning approaches, support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF) and multilayer perceptron (MLP)Öğe A dynamic annealing learning for PLSOM neural networks: Applications in medicine and applied sciences(Elsevier, 2023) Hameed, Alaa AliIn recent years, the field of unsupervised learning in neural networks has witnessed significant advancements. This innovative learning technique holds great promise for applications in diverse domains, with particular significance in the realms of medicine and applied sciences such as medical image analysis, drug discovery, predictive analytics, and pattern recognition. The neighborhood function plays a crucial role in the Improved Parameter-Less Self-Organizing Map (PLSOM2) algorithm by governing the rate of change in the vicinity of the winning neuron. During learning iterations, the neighborhood size is dynamically adjusted to encompass the activated neighboring neurons relative to the winning neuron. The training process begins with a larger neighborhood radius, promoting rough ordering, and gradually refines the process by reducing the radius for fine-tuning. This dynamic neighborhood size significantly influences the final training outcome of the PLSOM2 algorithm. However, one of the major bottlenecks of the PLSOM2 algorithm has been the slow ordering time and the challenge of determining an optimal neighborhood size. These issues often lead to topological defects during training, such as kinks or warps in the output maps. Merely increasing processing time has proven insufficient to overcome these challenges. In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic neighborhood function designed to accelerate the convergence process of the PLSOM2 algorithm, achieving the best shape and adaptation of the neighborhood width. The study demonstrates that by improving the neighborhood function of the PLSOM2 algorithm, map distortion can be effectively suppressed. Importantly, this enhancement enables the algorithm to handle network size, neighborhood size, and the large dimensional output space adeptly. It adaptively decreases the neighborhood size over time, ensuring convergence while appropriately managing network growth and avoiding twisting and misconfiguration. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed method, we conducted an extensive set of experiments across eight real-world benchmark datasets. Notably, the outcomes of these experiments are presented showcases the results of paired t-tests, highlighting the consistency and robustness of the proposed algorithm's performance. Despite non-significant p-values in many cases, the algorithm consistently excels across various datasets, underlining its practical significance. On the other hand, presents the results of One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) tests. These results further reinforce the consistency of the performance of algorithm, as indicated by p-values exceeding the common significance threshold of 0.05. The combined findings from both tables provide strong statistical evidence of the proposed algorithm's robustness and effectiveness across diverse datasets. The proposed research introduces a dynamic neighborhood function that not only improves the PLSOM2 algorithm's convergence but also enhances its adaptability and topological preservation. These enhancements, supported by the statistical tests results, underscore the algorithm's practical significance and its suitability for real-world applications, where statistical significance may not always capture the full extent of its capabilities.Öğe Efficient artificial intelligence-based models for COVID-19 disease detection and diagnosis from CT-Scans(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Masood, Muhammad Zargham; Jamil, Akhtar; Hameed, Alaa AliCOVID-19 is contagious virus that first emerged in China in 2019's last month. It mainly infects the both the lungs and the respiratory system. The virus has severely impacted life and the economy, which exposed threats to governments worldwide to manage it. Early diagnosis of COVID-19 could help with treatment planning and disease prevention strategies. In this study, we use CT-Scanned images of the lungs to show how COVID-19 may be identified using transfer learning model and investigate which model achieved the best and fastest results. Our primary focus was to detect structural anomalies to distinguish among COVID-19 positive, negative, and normal cases with deep learning methods. Every model received training with and without transfer learning and results were compared for various versions of DenseNet and EfficientNet. Optimal results were obtained using DenseNet201 (99.75%). When transfer learning was applied, all models produced almost similar results.Öğe Enhancing hyperspectral remote sensing image classification using robust learning technique(Elsevier, 2024) Hameed, Alaa AliAdvanced sensor tech integrates into diverse applications, including remote sensing, robotics, and IoT. Combining artificial intelligence (AI) with sensors enhances their capabilities, creating smart sensors, revolutionizing remote sensing and Internet of Things (IoT). This synergy forms a potent technology in the field. This study carries out a comprehensive analysis of the progress made in Hyperspectral sensors and AI-based classification techniques that are employed in remote sensing fields that utilize hyperspectral images. The classification of images obtained from Hyperspectral Sensors (HSS) has emerged as a prominent research subject within the domain of remote sensing. HSS offer a wealth of information across numerous spectral bands, supporting diverse applications such as land cover classification, environmental monitoring, agricultural assessment, change detection, and more. However, the abundance of data present in HSS also poses the challenge called the curse of dimensionality. The reduction of data dimensionality is crucial before applying any machine learning model to achieve optimal results. The present study introduces a new hybrid strategy combining the Back-Propagation algorithm with a variable adaptive momentum (BPVAM) and principal component analysis (PCA) for the purpose of classifying hyperspectral images. PCA is first applied to obtain an optimal set of discriminative features by eliminating highly correlated and redundant features. These features are then fed into the BPVAM model for classification. The addition of the momentum term in the weight update equation of the backpropagation algorithm helped achieve faster convergence with high accuracy. The proposed model was subjected to evaluation through experiments conducted on two benchmark datasets. These results indicated that the hybrid model based on BPVAM with PCA is an efficient technique for HSS classification.Öğe Enhancing robotic manipulator fault detection with advanced machine learning techniques(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2024) Khan, Faiq Ahmad; Jamil, Akhtar; Khan, Shaiq Ahmad; Hameed, Alaa AliThe optimization of rotating machinery processes is crucial for enhanced industrial productivity. Automatic machine health monitoring systems play a vital role in ensuring smooth operations. This study introduces a novel approach for fault diagnosis in robotic manipulators through motor sound analysis to enhance industrial efficiency and prevent machinery downtime. A unique dataset is generated using a custom robotic manipulator to examine the effectiveness of both deep learning and traditional machine learning in identifying motor anomalies. The investigation includes a two-stage analysis, initially leveraging 2D spectrogram features with neural network architectures, followed by an evaluation of 1D MFCC features using various conventional machine learning algorithms. The results reveal that the proposed custom CNN and 1D-CNN models significantly surpass traditional methods, achieving an F1-score exceeding 92%, highlighting the potential of sound analysis for automated fault detection in robotic systems. Additional experiments were carried out to investigate 1D MFCC features with various machine learning algorithms, including KNN, DT, LR, RF, SVM, MLP, and 1D-CNN. Augmented with additional data collected from the locally designed manipulator, our experimental setup significantly enhances model performance. Particularly, the 1D-CNN stands out as the top-performing model on the augmented dataset.Öğe A faster dynamic convergency approach for self-organizing maps(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2022) Jamil, Akhtar; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Orman, ZeynepThis paper proposes a novel variable learning rate to address two main challenges of the conventional Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) termed VLRSOM: high accuracy with fast convergence and low topological error. We empirically showed that the proposed method exhibits faster convergence behavior. It is also more robust in topology preservation as it maintains an optimal topology until the end of the maximum iterations. Since the learning rate adaption and the misadjustment parameter depends on the calculated error, the VLRSOM will avoid the undesired results by exploiting the error response during the weight updation. Then the learning rate is updated adaptively after the random initialization at the beginning of the training process. Experimental results show that it eliminates the tradeoff between the rate of convergence and accuracy and maintains the data's topological relationship. Extensive experiments were conducted on different types of datasets to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. First, we experimented with synthetic data and handwritten digits. For each data set, two experiments with a different number of iterations (200 and 500) were performed to test the stability of the network. The proposed method was further evaluated using four benchmark data sets. These datasets include Balance, Wisconsin Breast, Dermatology, and Ionosphere. In addition, a comprehensive comparative analysis was performed between the proposed method and three other SOM techniques: conventional SOM, parameter-less self-organizing map (PLSOM2), and RA-SOM in terms of accuracy, quantization error (QE), and topology error (TE). The results indicated the proposed approach produced superior results to the other three methods.Öğe Mechanical Properties of Sandwiched Construction with Composite and Hybrid Core Structure(Wiley-Hindawi, 2024) Njim, Emad Kadum; Hasan, Hussam Raad; Jweeg, Muhsin J.; Al-Waily, Muhannad; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Youssef, Ahmed M.; Elsayed, Fahmi M.In the field of lighter substitute materials, sandwich plate models of composite and hybrid foam cores are used in this study. Three core structures: composite core structure and then the core is replaced by a structure of a closed and open repeating cellular pattern manufactured with 3D printing technology. It finally integrated both into one hybrid open-cell core filled with foam and employed the same device (WBW-100E) to conduct the three-point bending experiment. The test was conducted based on the international standard (ASTM-C 393-00) to perform the three-point bending investigation on the sandwich structure. Flexural test finding, with the hybrid polyurethane/polytropic acid (PUR/PLA) core, the ultimate bending load is increased by 127.7% compared to the open-cell structure core. In addition, the maximum deflection increased by 163.3%. The simulation results of three-point bending indicate that employing a hybrid combination of PUR-PLA led to an increase of 382.3%, and for PUR-TPU by 111.8%; however, the highest value recorded with PUR/PLA, which has the slightest stress error among the tests. Also, it is reported that when the volume fraction of reinforced aluminum particles is increased, the overall deformation becomes more sufficient, and the test accuracy improves; for example, rising from 0.5% to 3%, the midspan deflection of composite (foam-Al) is increased by 40.34%. There were noticeable improvements in mechanical properties in the 2.5% composite foam-Al.Öğe Monocular vision with deep neural networks for autonomous mobile robots navigation(Elsevier, 2022) Sleaman, Walead Kaled; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Jamil, AkhtarEnabling mobile robots to explore the formerly unidentified environment is a challenging task. The current paper describes the internal analysis algorithm for mobile robots that combines various convolutional neural network (CNN) layers with the decision-making process in a hierarchical way. The whole system is trained end-to-end on data captured by a low-cost depth camera (RGB-D). The output consists of the proposed expansion model of the robot's critical moving directions to achieve autonomous analysis ability. Training this model through the dataset is created using Hand-Controlled Mobile Robot (HCMR) built for this purpose. The experiments were conducted by moving this robot in natural and diverse environments. The robot was trained using this data and applied for environmental investigation decisions (the control labels) using CNN to enable the robot to automatically sense the navigation without a map in an unknown environment. Furthermore, extensive experiments were conducted indoors and attained an accuracy of 77%. Experiments showed that the proposed model was able to reach equivalent results that are generally obtained enormously from an expensive sensor. In addition, comprehensive comparisons were drawn between the human-controlled robot and a robot trained using a deep learning process to determine decisions to control the robot's movement. The reached results were identical and satisfactory.Öğe Performance Analysis of Classification and Detection for PV Panel Motion Blur Images Based on Deblurring and Deep Learning Techniques(Mdpi, 2023) Al-Dulaimi, Abdullah Ahmed; Guneser, Muhammet Tahir; Hameed, Alaa Ali; Marquez, Fausto Pedro Garcia; Fitriyani, Norma Latif; Syafrudin, MuhammadDetecting snow-covered solar panels is crucial as it allows us to remove snow using heating techniques more efficiently and restores the photovoltaic system to proper operation. This paper presents classification and detection performance analyses for snow-covered solar panel images. The classification analysis consists of two cases, and the detection analysis consists of one case based on three backbones. In this study, five deep learning models, namely visual geometry group-16 (VGG-16), VGG-19, residual neural network-18 (RESNET-18), RESNET-50, and RESNET-101, are used to classify solar panel images. The models are trained, validated, and tested under different conditions. The first case of classification is performed on the original dataset without preprocessing. In the second case, extreme climate conditions are simulated by generating motion noise; furthermore, the dataset is replicated using the upsampling technique to handle the unbalancing issue. For the detection case, a region-based convolutional neural network (RCNN) detector is used to detect the three categories of solar panels, which are all_snow, no_snow, and partial. The dataset of these categories is taken from the second case in the classification approach. Finally, we proposed a blind image deblurring algorithm (BIDA) that can be a preprocessing step before the CNN (BIDA-CNN) model. The accuracy of the models was compared and verified; the accuracy results show that the proposed CNN-based blind image deblurring algorithm (BIDA-CNN) outperformed other models evaluated in this study.Öğe A robust NIfTI Image authentication framework based on DST and multi-scale otsu thresholding(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Bhatia, Surbhi; Singh, Kamred Udham; Kumar, Ankit; Kautish, Sandeep; Kumar, Adarsh; Basheer, Shakila; Hameed, Alaa AliTelemedicine has been intensely promoted in the present pandemic situation of COVID-19 to maintain a strategic distance from the infected person. Several medical tests were used to detect the coronavirus, including antigen, RT-PCR, and a lung CT scan. Only a lung CT-Scan can detect the coronavirus and provide information about the lung infection. As a result, digital imaging plays a critical role in the current pandemic situation. Teleradiology allows for the communication of digital medical images of patients over the internet for diagnosis. A lung CT-Scan test is currently being performed on billions of people to detect COVID-19. These images were sent via the internet for diagnosis and research purposes. The NIfTI image file (.nii extension) was created by the CT-Scanner and contains multiple slices of the lungs. As a result, radiologists determine that the received image has not been tempered during transmission, posing a critical authenticity problem when transmitting these images over the internet. As a result, the researchers are more concerned about the integrity and authenticity of these images in teleradiology. This paper proposes a blind, robust watermarking scheme for lung CT-Scan NIfTI images to address this issue. We use Otsu’s image segmentation algorithm in the proposed scheme to identify the slice with the least amount of medical information for watermark embedding. The proposed scheme employs the Discrete Shearlet Transform (DST), Lifting Wavelet Transform (LWT), and Schur decomposition to embed the encrypted watermark. Watermarks are encrypted using the Affine Transform. The experimental results show that watermarked slice has been tainted by the addition of various sorts of noise, including salt-and-pepper noise, compression, Gaussian noise, speckle noise, and motion blur. After an attack, a watermark is retrieved, and the NC values of extracted watermarks are 0.99623 for Salt and pepper noise, 0.96964 for Gaussian noise, 0.99014 for Speckle noise. The proposed scheme was put to the test with a variety of attacks and produced significant results. Author
