Up-to-Date Scoping Review of Object Detection Methods for Macro Marine Debris

Being able to accurately identify litter in a marine environment is crucial to cleaning up our seas and oceans. Research into object detection techniques to support this identification has been underway for over two decades. However, there ...

Efficient One-Dimensional Network Design Method for Underwater Acoustic Target Recognition

Many studies have used various time-frequency feature extraction methods to convert ship-radiated noise into three-dimensional (3D) data suitable for computer vision (CV) models, which have shown good results in public datasets. However, tr...

The quest for a Quantum Neural Network

Automated deep bottleneck residual 82-layered architecture with Bayesian optimization for the classification of brain and common maternal fetal ultrasound planes

Despite a worldwide decline in maternal mortality over the past two decades, a significant gap persists between low- and high-income countries, with 94% of maternal mortality concentrated in low and middle-income nations. Ultrasound serves ...

Learning to decode linear codes using deep learning

A novel deep learning method for improving the belief propagation algorithm is proposed. The method generalizes the standard belief propagation algorithm by assigning weights to the edges of the Tanner graph. These edges are then trained us...

Bi-Objective Portfolio Optimization Under ESG Volatility via a MOPSO-Deep Learning Algorithm

In this paper, we tackle a bi-objective optimization problem in which we aim to maximize the portfolio diversification and, at the same time, minimize the portfolio volatility, where the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) informati...

Automation of urban technological census. The historical centre of Bethlehem

The research proposal reports the outcomes of a research track concerning the automation of the architectural census of technological elements in urban environments, aiming at the development of a monitoring and management system for the bu...

An introduction to quantum machine learning

Machine learning algorithms learn a desired input-output relation from examples in order to interpret new inputs. This is important for tasks such as image and speech recognition or strategy optimisation, with growing applications in the IT...

Quantum Chemistry in the Age of Machine Learning

As the quantum chemistry (QC) community embraces machine learning (ML), the number of new methods and applications based on the combination of QC and ML is surging. In this Perspective, a view of the current state of affairs in this new and...

Quantum matter, the research field studying phases of matter whose properties are intrinsically quantum mechanical, draws from areas as diverse as hard condensed matter physics, materials science, statistical mechanics, quantum information,...

Machine Learning for Climate Precipitation Prediction Modeling over South America

Many natural disasters in South America are linked to meteorological phenomena. Therefore, forecasting and monitoring climatic events are fundamental issues for society and various sectors of the economy. In the last decades, machine learni...

Design, framework and benchmark of safety monitors for black-box classifiers

Abstract The last decade has seen a surging opportunity for developing autonomous systems (e.g., fully autonomous driving, computer-guided robotic surgery, mobile robots for inspections and surveillance, and manufacturing robots) to relieve...

Unsupervised Machine Learning for Improved Delaunay Triangulation

Physical oceanography models rely heavily on grid discretization. It is known that unstructured grids perform well in dealing with boundary fitting problems in complex nearshore regions. However, it is time-consuming to find a set of unstru...
