Soot is an important material with impacts that depend on particle morphology. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) represents one of the most direct routes to qualitatively assess particle characteristics. However, producing quantitative information requires robust image processing tools, which is complicated by the low image contrast and complex aggregated morphologies characteristic of soot. The current work presents a new convolutional neural network explicitly trained to characterize soot, using pre-classified images of particles from a natural gas engine; a laboratory gas flare; and a marine engine. The results are compared against other existing classifiers before considering the effect that the classifiers have on automated primary particle size methods. Estimates of the overall uncertainties between fully automated approaches of aggregate characterization range from 25% in d_{p,100} to 85% in D_{TEM}. A consistent correlation is observed between projected-area equivalent diameter and primary particle size across all of the techniques.

Coronary calcium causes beam hardening and blooming artifacts on cardiac computed tomography angiography (CTA) images, which lead to overestimation of lumen stenosis and reduction of diagnostic specificity. To properly remove coronary calcification a nd restore arterial lumen precisely, we propose a machine learning-based method with a multi-step inpainting process. We developed a new network configuration, Dense-Unet, to achieve optimal performance with low computational cost. Results after the calcium removal process were validated by comparing with gold-standard X-ray angiography. Our results demonstrated that removing coronary calcification from images with the proposed approach was feasible, and may potentially improve the diagnostic accuracy of CTA.
In this paper, a deep neural network based ensemble method is experimented for automatic identification of skin disease from dermoscopic images. The developed algorithm is applied on the task3 of the ISIC 2018 challenge dataset (Skin Lesion Analysis Towards Melanoma Detection).

Purpose: To apply a convolutional neural network (CNN) to develop a system that segments intensity calibration phantom regions in computed tomography (CT) images, and to test the system in a large cohort to evaluate its robustness. Methods: A total o f 1040 cases (520 cases each from two institutions), in which an intensity calibration phantom (B-MAS200, Kyoto Kagaku, Kyoto, Japan) was used, were included herein. A training dataset was created by manually segmenting the regions of the phantom for 40 cases (20 cases each). Segmentation accuracy of the CNN model was assessed with the Dice coefficient and the average symmetric surface distance (ASD) through the 4-fold cross validation. Further, absolute differences of radiodensity values (in Hounsfield units: HU) were compared between manually segmented regions and automatically segmented regions. The system was tested on the remaining 1000 cases. For each institution, linear regression was applied to calculate coefficients for the correlation between radiodensity and the densities of the phantom. Results: After training, the median Dice coefficient was 0.977, and the median ASD was 0.116 mm. When segmented regions were compared between manual segmentation and automated segmentation, the median absolute difference was 0.114 HU. For the test cases, the median correlation coefficient was 0.9998 for one institution and was 0.9999 for the other, with a minimum value of 0.9863. Conclusions: The CNN model successfully segmented the calibration phantoms regions in the CT images with excellent accuracy, and the automated method was found to be at least equivalent to the conventional manual method. Future study should integrate the system by automatically segmenting the region of interest in bones such that the bone mineral density can be fully automatically quantified from CT images.

In this paper, we present a novel approach that uses deep learning techniques for colorizing grayscale images. By utilizing a pre-trained convolutional neural network, which is originally designed for image classification, we are able to separate con tent and style of different images and recombine them into a single image. We then propose a method that can add colors to a grayscale image by combining its content with style of a color image having semantic similarity with the grayscale one. As an application, to our knowledge the first of its kind, we use the proposed method to colorize images of ukiyo-e a genre of Japanese painting?and obtain interesting results, showing the potential of this method in the growing field of computer assisted art.
Computerized detection of colonic polyps remains an unsolved issue because of the wide variation in the appearance, texture, color, size, and presence of the multiple polyp-like imitators during colonoscopy. In this paper, we propose a deep convoluti onal neural network based model for the computerized detection of polyps within colonoscopy images. The proposed model comprises 16 convolutional layers with 2 fully connected layers, and a Softmax layer, where we implement a unique approach using different convolutional kernels within the same hidden layer for deeper feature extraction. We applied two different activation functions, MISH and rectified linear unit activation functions for deeper propagation of information and self regularized smooth non-monotonicity. Furthermore, we used a generalized intersection of union, thus overcoming issues such as scale invariance, rotation, and shape. Data augmentation techniques such as photometric and geometric distortions are adapted to overcome the obstacles faced in polyp detection. Detailed benchmarked results are provided, showing better performance in terms of precision, sensitivity, F1- score, F2- score, and dice-coefficient, thus proving the efficacy of the proposed model.
