  • retinal artery vein classification using genetic Search Feature selection
    Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2018
    Co-Authors: Fan Huang, Behdad Dashtbozorg, Tao Tan, Bart M Ter Haar Romeny
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background and objectives: The automatic classification of retinal blood vessels into artery and vein (A/V) is still a challenging task in retinal image analysis. Recent works on A/V classification mainly focus on the graph analysis of the retinal vasculature, which exploits the connectivity of vessels to improve the classification performance. While they have overlooked the importance of pixel-wise classification to the final classification results. This paper shows that a complicated Feature set is efficient for vessel centerline pixels classification. Methods: We extract enormous amount of Features for vessel centerline pixels, and apply a genetic-Search based Feature selection technique to obtain the optimal Feature subset for A/V classification. Results: The proposed method achieves an accuracy of 90.2%, the sensitivity of 89.6%, the specificity of 91.3% on the INSPIRE dataset. It shows that our method, using only the information of centerline pixels, gives a comparable performance as the techniques which use complicated graph analysis. In addition, the results on the images acquired by different fundus cameras show that our framework is capable for discriminating vessels independent of the imaging device characteristics, image resolution and image quality. Conclusion: The complicated Feature set is essential for A/V classification, especially on the individual vessels where graph-based methods receive limitations. And it could provide a higher entry to the graph-analysis to achieve a better A/V labeling.

  • learning dynamic memory networks for object tracking
    European Conference on Computer Vision, 2018
    Co-Authors: Tianyu Yang, Antoni B Chan
    Abstract:

    Template-matching methods for visual tracking have gained popularity recently due to their comparable performance and fast speed. However, they lack effective ways to adapt to changes in the target object’s appearance, making their tracking accuracy still far from state-of-the-art. In this paper, we propose a dynamic memory network to adapt the template to the target’s appearance variations during tracking. An LSTM is used as a memory controller, where the input is the Search Feature map and the outputs are the control signals for the reading and writing process of the memory block. As the location of the target is at first unknown in the Search Feature map, an attention mechanism is applied to concentrate the LSTM input on the potential target. To prevent aggressive model adaptivity, we apply gated residual template learning to control the amount of retrieved memory that is used to combine with the initial template. Unlike tracking-by-detection methods where the object’s information is maintained by the weight parameters of neural networks, which requires expensive online fine-tuning to be adaptable, our tracker runs completely feed-forward and adapts to the target’s appearance changes by updating the external memory. Moreover, unlike other tracking methods where the model capacity is fixed after offline training – the capacity of our tracker can be easily enlarged as the memory requirements of a task increase, which is favorable for memorizing long-term object information. Extensive experiments on OTB and VOT demonstrates that our tracker MemTrack performs favorably against state-of-the-art tracking methods while retaining real-time speed of 50 fps.

    Abstract:

    Template-matching methods for visual tracking have gained popularity recently due to their comparable performance and fast speed. However, they lack effective ways to adapt to changes in the target object's appearance, making their tracking accuracy still far from state-of-the-art. In this paper, we propose a dynamic memory network to adapt the template to the target's appearance variations during tracking. An LSTM is used as a memory controller, where the input is the Search Feature map and the outputs are the control signals for the reading and writing process of the memory block. As the location of the target is at first unknown in the Search Feature map, an attention mechanism is applied to concentrate the LSTM input on the potential target. To prevent aggressive model adaptivity, we apply gated residual template learning to control the amount of retrieved memory that is used to combine with the initial template. Unlike tracking-by-detection methods where the object's information is maintained by the weight parameters of neural networks, which requires expensive online fine-tuning to be adaptable, our tracker runs completely feed-forward and adapts to the target's appearance changes by updating the external memory. Moreover, the capacity of our model is not determined by the network size as with other trackers -- the capacity can be easily enlarged as the memory requirements of a task increase, which is favorable for memorizing long-term object information. Extensive experiments on OTB and VOT demonstrates that our tracker MemTrack performs favorably against state-of-the-art tracking methods while retaining real-time speed of 50 fps.

  • accelerated pso swarm Search Feature selection for data stream mining big data
    IEEE Transactions on Services Computing, 2016
    Co-Authors: Simon Fong, Raymond K Wong, Athanasios V Vasilakos
    Abstract:

    Big Data though it is a hype up-springing many technical challenges that confront both academic reSearch communities and commercial IT deployment, the root sources of Big Data are founded on data streams and the curse of dimensionality. It is generally known that data which are sourced from data streams accumulate continuously making traditional batch-based model induction algorithms infeasible for real-time data mining. Feature selection has been popularly used to lighten the processing load in inducing a data mining model. However, when it comes to mining over high dimensional data the Search space from which an optimal Feature subset is derived grows exponentially in size, leading to an intractable demand in computation. In order to tackle this problem which is mainly based on the high-dimensionality and streaming format of data feeds in Big Data, a novel lightweight Feature selection is proposed. The Feature selection is designed particularly for mining streaming data on the fly, by using accelerated particle swarm optimization (APSO) type of swarm Search that achieves enhanced analytical accuracy within reasonable processing time. In this paper, a collection of Big Data with exceptionally large degree of dimensionality are put under test of our new Feature selection algorithm for performance evaluation.

  • Feature selection in life science classification metaheuristic swarm Search
    IT Professional, 2014
    Co-Authors: Simon Fong, Suash Deb, Xinshe Yang
    Abstract:

    The purpose of classification in medical informatics is to predict the presence or absence of a particular disease as well as disease types from historical data. Medical data often contain irrelevant Features and noise, and an appropriate subset of the significant Features can improve classification accuracy. Therefore, reSearchers apply Feature selection to identify and remove irrelevant and redundant Features. The authors propose a versatile Feature selection approach called Swarm Search Feature Selection (SS-FS), based on stochastic swarm intelligence. It is designed to overcome NP-hard combinatorial Search problems such as the selection of an optimal Feature subset from an extremely large array of Features--which is not uncommon in biomedical data. SS-FS is demonstrated to be a feasible computing tool in achieving high accuracy in classification via testing with two empirical biomedical datasets. This article is part of a special issue on life sciences computing.
