The identification of Prakriti types for the human body is a long-lost medical practice in finding the harmony between the nature of human beings and their behaviour. There are 3 fundamental Prakriti types of individuals. A person can belong to any Dosha. In the existing models, researchers have made use of SVM, KNN, PCA, Decision Tree, and various other algorithms. The output of these algorithms was quite decent, but it can be enhanced with the help of Multinomial Naive Bayes and K-modes clustering. Most of the researchers have confined themselves to 3 basic classes. This might not be accurate in the real-world scenario, where overlapping might occur. Considering these, we have classified the Doshas into 7 categories, which includes overlapping of Doshas. These are namely, VATT-Dosha, PITT-Dosha, KAPH-Dosha, VATT-PITT-Dosha, PITT-KAPH-Dosha, KAPH-VATT-Dosha, and VATT-PITT-KAPH-Dosha. The data used contains a balanced set of all individual entries on which preprocessing steps of machine learning have been performed. Chi-Square test for handling categorical data is being used for feature selection. For model fitting, the method used in this approach is K-modes clustering. The empirical results demonstrate a better result while using the MNB classifier. All key findings of this work have achieved 0.90 accuracy, 0.81 precision, 0.91 F-score, and 0.90 recall. The discussion suggests a provident analysis of the seven clusters and predicts their occurrence. The results have been consolidated to improve the Ayurvedic advancements with machine learning.

White Matter Hyperintensity (WMH) is an imaging feature related to various diseases such as dementia and stroke. Accurately segmenting WMH using computer technology is crucial for early disease diagnosis. However, this task remains challenging due to the small lesions with low contrast and high discontinuity in the images, which contain limited contextual and spatial information. To address this challenge, we propose a deep learning model called 3D Spatial Attention U-Net (3D SA-UNet) for automatic WMH segmentation using only Fluid Attenuation Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) scans. The 3D SA-UNet introduces a 3D Spatial Attention Module that highlights important lesion features, such as WMH, while suppressing unimportant regions. Additionally, to capture features at different scales, we extend the Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP) module to a 3D version, enhancing the segmentation performance of the network. We evaluate our method on publicly available dataset and demonstrate the effectiveness of 3D spatial attention module and 3D ASPP in WMH segmentation. Through experimental results, it has been demonstrated that our proposed 3D SA-UNet model achieves higher accuracy compared to other state-of-the-art 3D convolutional neural networks.
Writing assistance is an application closely related to human life and is also a fundamental Natural Language Processing (NLP) research field. Its aim is to improve the correctness and quality of input texts, with character checking being crucial in detecting and correcting wrong characters. From the perspective of the real world where handwriting occupies the vast majority, characters that humans get wrong include faked characters (i.e., untrue characters created due to writing errors) and misspelled characters (i.e., true characters used incorrectly due to spelling errors). However, existing datasets and related studies only focus on misspelled characters mainly caused by phonological or visual confusion, thereby ignoring faked characters which are more common and difficult. To break through this dilemma, we present Visual-C$^3$, a human-annotated Visual Chinese Character Checking dataset with faked and misspelled Chinese characters. To the best of our knowledge, Visual-C$^3$ is the first real-world visual and the largest human-crafted dataset for the Chinese character checking scenario. Additionally, we also propose and evaluate novel baseline methods on Visual-C$^3$. Extensive empirical results and analyses show that Visual-C$^3$ is high-quality yet challenging. The Visual-C$^3$ dataset and the baseline methods will be publicly available to facilitate further research in the community.
Medical image interpretation is central to most clinical applications such as disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognostication. In clinical practice, radiologists examine medical images and manually compile their findings into reports, which can be a time-consuming process. Automated approaches to radiology report generation, therefore, can reduce radiologist workload and improve efficiency in the clinical pathway. While recent deep-learning approaches for automated report generation from medical images have seen some success, most studies have relied on image-derived features alone, ignoring non-imaging patient data. Although a few studies have included the word-level contexts along with the image, the use of patient demographics is still unexplored. This paper proposes a novel multi-modal transformer network that integrates chest x-ray (CXR) images and associated patient demographic information, to synthesise patient-specific radiology reports. The proposed network uses a convolutional neural network to extract visual features from CXRs and a transformer-based encoder-decoder network that combines the visual features with semantic text embeddings of patient demographic information, to synthesise full-text radiology reports. Data from two public databases were used to train and evaluate the proposed approach. CXRs and reports were extracted from the MIMIC-CXR database and combined with corresponding patients' data MIMIC-IV. Based on the evaluation metrics used including patient demographic information was found to improve the quality of reports generated using the proposed approach, relative to a baseline network trained using CXRs alone. The proposed approach shows potential for enhancing radiology report generation by leveraging rich patient metadata and combining semantic text embeddings derived thereof, with medical image-derived visual features.
Emotion recognition in conversations (ERC) is a rapidly evolving task within the natural language processing community, which aims to detect the emotions expressed by speakers during a conversation. Recently, a growing number of ERC methods have focused on leveraging supervised contrastive learning (SCL) to enhance the robustness and generalizability of learned features. However, current SCL-based approaches in ERC are impeded by the constraint of large batch sizes and the lack of compatibility with most existing ERC models. To address these challenges, we propose an efficient and model-agnostic SCL framework named Supervised Sample-Label Contrastive Learning with Soft-HGR Maximal Correlation (SSLCL), which eliminates the need for a large batch size and can be seamlessly integrated with existing ERC models without introducing any model-specific assumptions. Specifically, we introduce a novel perspective on utilizing label representations by projecting discrete labels into dense embeddings through a shallow multilayer perceptron, and formulate the training objective to maximize the similarity between sample features and their corresponding ground-truth label embeddings, while minimizing the similarity between sample features and label embeddings of disparate classes. Moreover, we innovatively adopt the Soft-HGR maximal correlation as a measure of similarity between sample features and label embeddings, leading to significant performance improvements over conventional similarity measures. Additionally, multimodal cues of utterances are effectively leveraged by SSLCL as data augmentations to boost model performances. Extensive experiments on two ERC benchmark datasets, IEMOCAP and MELD, demonstrate the compatibility and superiority of our proposed SSLCL framework compared to existing state-of-the-art SCL methods. Our code is available at \url{//github.com/TaoShi1998/SSLCL}.
Analysis of the 3D Texture is indispensable for various tasks, such as retrieval, segmentation, classification, and inspection of sculptures, knitted fabrics, and biological tissues. A 3D texture is a locally repeated surface variation independent of the surface's overall shape and can be determined using the local neighborhood and its characteristics. Existing techniques typically employ computer vision techniques that analyze a 3D mesh globally, derive features, and then utilize the obtained features for retrieval or classification. Several traditional and learning-based methods exist in the literature, however, only a few are on 3D texture, and nothing yet, to the best of our knowledge, on the unsupervised schemes. This paper presents an original framework for the unsupervised segmentation of the 3D texture on the mesh manifold. We approach this problem as binary surface segmentation, partitioning the mesh surface into textured and non-textured regions without prior annotation. We devise a mutual transformer-based system comprising a label generator and a cleaner. The two models take geometric image representations of the surface mesh facets and label them as texture or non-texture across an iterative mutual learning scheme. Extensive experiments on three publicly available datasets with diverse texture patterns demonstrate that the proposed framework outperforms standard and SOTA unsupervised techniques and competes reasonably with supervised methods.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, traditional physical classrooms have transitioned to online environments, necessitating effective strategies to ensure sustained student engagement. A significant challenge in online teaching is the absence of real-time feedback from teachers on students learning progress. This paper introduces a novel approach employing deep learning techniques based on facial expressions to assess students engagement levels during online learning sessions. Human emotions cannot be adequately conveyed by a student using only the basic emotions, including anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise, and neutrality. To address this challenge, proposed a generation of four complex emotions such as confusion, satisfaction, disappointment, and frustration by combining the basic emotions. These complex emotions are often experienced simultaneously by students during the learning session. To depict these emotions dynamically,utilized a continuous stream of image frames instead of discrete images. The proposed work utilized a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model to categorize the fundamental emotional states of learners accurately. The proposed CNN model demonstrates strong performance, achieving a 95% accuracy in precise categorization of learner emotions.
Automatic segmentation of fluid in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images is beneficial for ophthalmologists to make an accurate diagnosis. Although semi-supervised OCT fluid segmentation networks enhance their performance by introducing additional unlabeled data, the performance enhancement is limited. To address this, we propose Superpixel and Confident Learning Guide Point Annotations Network (SCLGPA-Net) based on the teacher-student architecture, which can learn OCT fluid segmentation from limited fully-annotated data and abundant point-annotated data. Specifically, we use points to annotate fluid regions in unlabeled OCT images and the Superpixel-Guided Pseudo-Label Generation (SGPLG) module generates pseudo-labels and pixel-level label trust maps from the point annotations. The label trust maps provide an indication of the reliability of the pseudo-labels. Furthermore, we propose the Confident Learning Guided Label Refinement (CLGLR) module identifies error information in the pseudo-labels and leads to further refinement. Experiments on the RETOUCH dataset show that we are able to reduce the need for fully-annotated data by 94.22\%, closing the gap with the best fully supervised baselines to a mean IoU of only 2\%. Furthermore, We constructed a private 2D OCT fluid segmentation dataset for evaluation. Compared with other methods, comprehensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve excellent performance in OCT fluid segmentation.
Inspired by the human cognitive system, attention is a mechanism that imitates the human cognitive awareness about specific information, amplifying critical details to focus more on the essential aspects of data. Deep learning has employed attention to boost performance for many applications. Interestingly, the same attention design can suit processing different data modalities and can easily be incorporated into large networks. Furthermore, multiple complementary attention mechanisms can be incorporated in one network. Hence, attention techniques have become extremely attractive. However, the literature lacks a comprehensive survey specific to attention techniques to guide researchers in employing attention in their deep models. Note that, besides being demanding in terms of training data and computational resources, transformers only cover a single category in self-attention out of the many categories available. We fill this gap and provide an in-depth survey of 50 attention techniques categorizing them by their most prominent features. We initiate our discussion by introducing the fundamental concepts behind the success of attention mechanism. Next, we furnish some essentials such as the strengths and limitations of each attention category, describe their fundamental building blocks, basic formulations with primary usage, and applications specifically for computer vision. We also discuss the challenges and open questions related to attention mechanism in general. Finally, we recommend possible future research directions for deep attention.
Knowledge enhanced pre-trained language models (K-PLMs) are shown to be effective for many public tasks in the literature but few of them have been successfully applied in practice. To address this problem, we propose K-AID, a systematic approach that includes a low-cost knowledge acquisition process for acquiring domain knowledge, an effective knowledge infusion module for improving model performance, and a knowledge distillation component for reducing the model size and deploying K-PLMs on resource-restricted devices (e.g., CPU) for real-world application. Importantly, instead of capturing entity knowledge like the majority of existing K-PLMs, our approach captures relational knowledge, which contributes to better-improving sentence-level text classification and text matching tasks that play a key role in question answering (QA). We conducted a set of experiments on five text classification tasks and three text matching tasks from three domains, namely E-commerce, Government, and Film&TV, and performed online A/B tests in E-commerce. Experimental results show that our approach is able to achieve substantial improvement on sentence-level question answering tasks and bring beneficial business value in industrial settings.
Humans and animals have the ability to continually acquire, fine-tune, and transfer knowledge and skills throughout their lifespan. This ability, referred to as lifelong learning, is mediated by a rich set of neurocognitive mechanisms that together contribute to the development and specialization of our sensorimotor skills as well as to long-term memory consolidation and retrieval. Consequently, lifelong learning capabilities are crucial for autonomous agents interacting in the real world and processing continuous streams of information. However, lifelong learning remains a long-standing challenge for machine learning and neural network models since the continual acquisition of incrementally available information from non-stationary data distributions generally leads to catastrophic forgetting or interference. This limitation represents a major drawback for state-of-the-art deep neural network models that typically learn representations from stationary batches of training data, thus without accounting for situations in which information becomes incrementally available over time. In this review, we critically summarize the main challenges linked to lifelong learning for artificial learning systems and compare existing neural network approaches that alleviate, to different extents, catastrophic forgetting. We discuss well-established and emerging research motivated by lifelong learning factors in biological systems such as structural plasticity, memory replay, curriculum and transfer learning, intrinsic motivation, and multisensory integration.
