Original Source Here ✍How drive.ai Autonomous vehicles company uses neural network ? Artificial Neural Network ✍What are Neural Networks? Neural networks are a set of algorithms, they are designed to mimic the human brain, that is designed to recognize patterns. They interpret data through a form of machine perception by labeling or clustering raw input data. For Example Human Brain made is up of a network of neurons and also the brain is a very complex structure. Neural network It’s capable of quickly assessing and understanding the context of numerous different situations. Computers struggle to react to situations in a similar way. Artificial Neural Networks are a way of overcoming this limitation. First dev e loped in the 1940s Artificial Neural Networks attempt to simulate the way the brain operates. ✍Why we use Neural Networks? Neural networks, with their remarkable ability to derive meaning from complicated or imprecise data, can be used to extract patterns

In particular object recognition, detection, segmentation plays a pivotal role in a self-driving car 🚘 , automated identification 👮‍♀️ , information retrieval. Sometimes for image classification one needs to first detect individual objects and pass it to some classifier. Over a period of time, different algorithms were proposed for object detection such as R-CNN, Fast R-CNN, Faster R-CNN, YOLO, and many more. In this blog, we will primarily focus on these region-based algorithms, for YOLO one can see this blog. R-CNN The algorithm as proposed by Ross Girshick can be broadly divided int

Deep Learning Interview Questions

Original Source Here What are the steps of deep learning? 1. create a function (neural network) 2. evaluate the goodness of the function 3. pick the best function as the final question answer machine What is a neural network? Neural netw o rk simulates the ways human learn but is much simpler. It can be imagined as a function. When you feed it input, you are supposed to get an output. It commonly consists of an input layer, hidden layer(s), and an output layer. Reference: Hung-Yi Lee’s Lecture Slides Why is it necessary to introduce non-linearities in the neural network? If there are all linear functions, they actually compose a new linear function, which gives a linear model. A linear model has a much smaller number of parameters and is therefore limited in its complexity. What is the difference between single-layer perceptron and multi-layer perceptron? The main difference between them is the existence of hidden layers. Multi-layer perceptron can classify nonlinear

Working of Neural Network

Original Source Here What is Neural Network? Neural Network is set of algorithm which follows the working of human brain. It has dense cells called neurons which are helpful for system to learn things. For neural network we need at least 3 layers, Input layer, hidden layer and output layer. Hidden layer can be multiple on the basis of requirement or it’s accuracy. Working of Forward Neural Network Input Layer: In the above diagram there is 3 features x1, x2, and x3 which will help our model to train. For each feature th e re is weight associated with them w1, w2 and w3. A good neural network always have distinct weights. So question comes up Why we need weight? Answer: Weights decide how much input values will affect our output. It means that weight decide how fast activation function will work. For Deep understanding lets take a real life example, Suppose we pull 2 kg weight with left hand and 5 kg weight with right hand. In this process there are multiple neurons will wo

Original Source Here As can be seen in the previous image, the samples considered to generate synthetic samples are those that are in a low-density area. An alternative to ADASYN is K-Means-SMOTE which generates synthetic samples based on the density of each cluster found in the minority class. SMOTE in practice In this section, we will see the SMOTE [ 2 ] implementation and its variants ( Borderline-SMOTE [ 3 ] and ADASYN [ 4 ]) using the python library imbalanced-learn [1] . In order to make a comparison of each of these techniques, an unbalanced dataset will be generated using the module make_classification of the scikit-learn framework. Later, visualizations corresponding to each algorithm will be shown as well as the evaluation of each model under the accuracy , precision , recall and f1-score metrics. Therefore, let’s start with the generation of the dataset. Code Snippet 1. Data generation Code snippet 1 generates a 2000 sample dataset with only 2 features

NFNets Explained — DeepMind’s New State-Of-The-Art Image Classifier

https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2600/0*BWz48FL_sMBnumFa Original Source Here NFNets Explained — DeepMind’s New State-Of-The-Art Image Classifier Is this the beginning of the end for Batch Normalization? Introduction DeepMind has recently released a new family of image classifiers that achieved a new state-of-the-art accuracy on the ImageNet dataset. This new family of image classifiers, named NFNets (short for Normalizer-Free Networks), achieves comparable accuracy to EfficientNet-B7, while having a whopping 8.7x faster train time. NFNet-F1 trains 8.7x faster than EfficientNet-B7, while achieving comparable accuracy. NFNet-F5 achieves state-of-the-art accuracy, surpassing previous accuracies of the EfficientNet family. This improvement in training speed was partly achieved by replacing batch normalization with other techniques. This represents an important paradigm shift in the world of image classifiers, which has relied heavily on batch normalization as a key comp

Original Source Here Training and Evaluating the Network Now comes the interesting part — the learning of the network, we have defined the architecture of the neural network, compiled it with a loss function, an optimizer for the updating weight, and a metric you need to keep track of. For the learning of the network, we need to define when the training should end in this case; the number of epochs, we also define a batch_size to tell the machine after how many samples weight should be updated. We also input the training data samples and the training labels. >>> model.fit(train_images, train_labels, epochs=10, batch_size=256) Epoch 1/10 235/235 [==============================] - 1s 3ms/step - loss: 0.5015 - accuracy: 0.8563 Epoch 2/10 235/235 [==============================] - 1s 3ms/step - loss: 0.1406 - accuracy: 0.9576 Epoch 3/10 235/235 [==============================] - 1s 3ms/step - loss: 0.0895 - accuracy: 0.9737 Epoch 4/10 235/235 [============================

VSB Power Line Fault Detection

Original Source Here The signals a, b, and c in Figure 35 are smooth signals which are phase-shifted by a certain degree, while the signal d is a rough signal. The various type of fractals like Petrosian, Katz, and Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) calculated on the above signals indicate that: The difference between the fractal values is less between the signals a, b, and c. The difference between the fractal values is more between the signals a, b, c, and signal d. A similar kind of analysis is performed on the current medium voltage power line signals to measure the ‘roughness’ of the signal with and without the presence of the PD pattern. As mentioned above, the following fractal dimension values are obtained for each signal: Petrosian Fractal Dimension Katz Fractal Dimension Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) These fractal values are calculated on the DWT denoised signal. Petrosian Fractal Dimension Petrosian Fractal Dimension (FD) is used to provide a fas

Sensing robot healthcare helpers

Original Source Here Robots that could take on basic healthcare tasks to support the work of doctors and nurses may be the way of the future. Who knows, maybe a medical robot can prescribe your medicine someday? That’s the idea behind 3D structural-sensing robots being developed and tested at Simon Fraser University by Woo Soo Kim, associate professor in the School of Mechatronic Systems Engineering. “The recent pandemic demonstrates the need to minimize human-to-human interaction between healthcare workers and patients,” says Kim, who authored two recent papers on the subject — a perspective on the technology and a demonstration of a robots’ usefulness in healthcare. “There’s an opportunity for sensing robots to measure essential healthcare information on behalf of care providers in the future.” Kim’s research team programmed two robots, a humanoid figure and a robotic arm, to measure human physiological signals, working from Kim’s Additive Manufacturing Lab located in SFU Surre
