Enhanced convolutional neural network for plankton identification and enumeration.

ABSTRACT: Despite the rapid increase in the number and applications of plankton imaging systems in marine science, processing large numbers of images remains a major challenge due to large variations in image content and quality in different marine environments. We constructed an automatic plankton image recognition and enumeration system using an enhanced Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and examined the performance of different network structures on automatic plankton image classification. The procedure started with an adaptive thresholding approach to extract Region of Interest (ROIs) from in situ plankton images, followed by a procedure to suppress the background noise and enhance target features for each extracted ROI. The enhanced ROIs were classified into seven categories by a pre-trained classifier which was a combination of a CNN and a Support Vector Machine (SVM). The CNN was selected to improve feature description and the SVM was utilized to improve classification accuracy. A series of comparison experiments were then conducted to test the effectiveness of the pre-trained classifier including the combination of CNN and SVM versus CNN alone, and the performance of different CNN models. Compared to CNN model alone, the combination of CNN and SVM increased classification accuracy and recall rate by 7.13% and 6.41%, respectively. Among the selected CNN models, the ResNet50 performed the best with accuracy and recall at 94.52% and 94.13% respectively. The present study demonstrates that deep learning technique can improve plankton image recognition and that the results can provide useful information on the selection of different CNN models for plankton recognition. The proposed algorithm could be generally applied to images acquired from different imaging systems.

Project description:Predicting the protein sequence information of enzymes and non-enzymes is an important but a very challenging task. Existing methods use protein geometric structures only or protein sequences alone to predict enzymatic functions. Thus, their prediction results are unsatisfactory. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for predicting the amino acid sequences of enzymes and non-enzymes via Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). In CNN, the roles of enzymes are predicted from multiple sides of biological information, including information on sequences and structures. We propose the use of two-dimensional data via 2DCNN to predict the proteins of enzymes and non-enzymes by using the same fivefold cross-validation function. We also use an independent dataset to test the performance of our model, and the results demonstrate that we are able to solve the overfitting problem. We used the CNN model proposed herein to demonstrate the superiority of our model for classifying an entire set of filters, such as 32, 64, and 128 parameters, with the fivefold validation test set as the independent classification. Via the Dipeptide Deviation from Expected Mean (DDE) matrix, mutation information is extracted from amino acid sequences and structural information with the distance and angle of amino acids is conveyed. The derived feature maps are then encoded in DDE exploitation. The independent datasets are then compared with other two methods, namely, GRU and XGBOOST. All analyses were conducted using 32, 64 and 128 filters on our proposed CNN method. The cross-validation datasets achieved an accuracy score of 0.8762%, whereas the accuracy of independent datasets was 0.7621%. Additional variables were derived on the basis of ROC AUC with fivefold cross-validation was achieved score is 0.95%. The performance of our model and that of other models in terms of sensitivity (0.9028%) and specificity (0.8497%) was compared. The overall accuracy of our model was 0.9133% compared with 0.8310% for the other model.
