Studies recently accomplished on the Enteric Nervous System have shown that chronic degenerative diseases affect the Enteric Glial Cells (EGC) and, thus, the development of recognition methods able to identify whether or not the EGC are affected by these type of diseases may be helpful in its diagnoses. In this work, we propose the use of pattern recognition and machine learning techniques to evaluate if a given animal EGC image was obtained from a healthy individual or one affect by a chronic degenerative disease. In the proposed approach, we have performed the classification task with handcrafted features and deep learning based techniques, also known as non-handcrafted features. The handcrafted features were obtained from the textural content of the ECG images using texture descriptors, such as the Local Binary Pattern (LBP). Moreover, the representation learning techniques employed in the approach are based on different Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures, such as AlexNet and VGG16, with and without transfer learning. The complementarity between the handcrafted and non-handcrafted features was also evaluated with late fusion techniques. The datasets of EGC images used in the experiments, which are also contributions of this paper, are composed of three different chronic degenerative diseases: Cancer, Diabetes Mellitus, and Rheumatoid Arthritis. The experimental results, supported by statistical analysis, shown that the proposed approach can distinguish healthy cells from the sick ones with a recognition rate of 89.30% (Rheumatoid Arthritis), 98.45% (Cancer), and 95.13% (Diabetes Mellitus), being achieved by combining classifiers obtained both feature scenarios.

Respiratory diseases, including asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, and upper respiratory tract infection (RTI), are among the most common diseases in clinics. The similarities among the symptoms of these diseases precludes prompt diagnosis upon the patie nts arrival. In pediatrics, the patients limited ability in expressing their situation makes precise diagnosis even harder. This becomes worse in primary hospitals, where the lack of medical imaging devices and the doctors limited experience further increase the difficulty of distinguishing among similar diseases. In this paper, a pediatric fine-grained diagnosis-assistant system is proposed to provide prompt and precise diagnosis using solely clinical notes upon admission, which would assist clinicians without changing the diagnostic process. The proposed system consists of two stages: a test result structuralization stage and a disease identification stage. The first stage structuralizes test results by extracting relevant numerical values from clinical notes, and the disease identification stage provides a diagnosis based on text-form clinical notes and the structured data obtained from the first stage. A novel deep learning algorithm was developed for the disease identification stage, where techniques including adaptive feature infusion and multi-modal attentive fusion were introduced to fuse structured and text data together. Clinical notes from over 12000 patients with respiratory diseases were used to train a deep learning model, and clinical notes from a non-overlapping set of about 1800 patients were used to evaluate the performance of the trained model. The average precisions (AP) for pneumonia, RTI, bronchitis and asthma are 0.878, 0.857, 0.714, and 0.825, respectively, achieving a mean AP (mAP) of 0.819.
We consider the problem of estimating an objects physical properties such as mass, friction, and elasticity directly from video sequences. Such a system identification problem is fundamentally ill-posed due to the loss of information during image for mation. Current solutions require precise 3D labels which are labor-intensive to gather, and infeasible to create for many systems such as deformable solids or cloth. We present gradSim, a framework that overcomes the dependence on 3D supervision by leveraging differentiable multiphysics simulation and differentiable rendering to jointly model the evolution of scene dynamics and image formation. This novel combination enables backpropagation from pixels in a video sequence through to the underlying physical attributes that generated them. Moreover, our unified computation graph -- spanning from the dynamics and through the rendering process -- enables learning in challenging visuomotor control tasks, without relying on state-based (3D) supervision, while obtaining performance competitive to or better than techniques that rely on precise 3D labels.
Agriculture is an essential industry in the both society and economy of a country. However, the pests and diseases cause a great amount of reduction in agricultural production while there is not sufficient guidance for farmers to avoid this disaster. To address this problem, we apply CNNs to plant disease recognition by building a classification model. Within the dataset of 3,642 images of apple leaves, We use a pre-trained image classification model Restnet34 based on a Convolutional neural network (CNN) with the Fastai framework in order to save the training time. Overall, the accuracy of classification is 93.765%.
This paper presents a method for automatic segmentation, localization, and identification of vertebrae in arbitrary 3D CT images. Many previous works do not perform the three tasks simultaneously even though requiring a priori knowledge of which part of the anatomy is visible in the 3D CT images. Our method tackles all these tasks in a single multi-stage framework without any assumptions. In the first stage, we train a 3D Fully Convolutional Networks to find the bounding boxes of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae. In the second stage, we train an iterative 3D Fully Convolutional Networks to segment individual vertebrae in the bounding box. The input to the second networks have an auxiliary channel in addition to the 3D CT images. Given the segmented vertebra regions in the auxiliary channel, the networks output the next vertebra. The proposed method is evaluated in terms of segmentation, localization, and identification accuracy with two public datasets of 15 3D CT images from the MICCAI CSI 2014 workshop challenge and 302 3D CT images with various pathologies introduced in [1]. Our method achieved a mean Dice score of 96%, a mean localization error of 8.3 mm, and a mean identification rate of 84%. In summary, our method achieved better performance than all existing works in all the three metrics.
In this paper, we propose an OCR (optical character recognition)-based localization system called OCRAPOSE II, which is applicable in a number of indoor scenarios including office buildings, parkings, airports, grocery stores, etc. In these scenarios , characters (i.e. texts or numbers) can be used as suitable distinctive landmarks for localization. The proposed system takes advantage of OCR to read these characters in the query still images and provides a rough location estimate using a floor plan. Then, it finds depth and angle-of-view of the query using the information provided by the OCR engine in order to refine the location estimate. We derive novel formulas for the query angle-of-view and depth estimation using image line segments and the OCR box information. We demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed system through experiments in indoor scenarios. It is shown that our system demonstrates better performance compared to the state-of-the-art benchmarks in terms of location recognition rate and average localization error specially under sparse database condition.
