A Novel Baseline Estimation Technique for Geometric Correction of Historical Arabic Documents Based on Voronoi Diagrams

Since Arabic writing has a robust baseline, several state-of-the-art recognition systems for handwritten Arabic produce use of baseline-dependent characteristics. For modern Arabic documents, the baseline can be detected reliably by obtaining the maximum in the horizontal projection profile or the Hough transformed image. However, the performance of these techniques leaks significantly on Historical Arabic Documents. In this paper, we introduce an effective novel approach to baseline detection in Historical Arabic Documents which is based on Based on Voronoi Diagrams. The proposed technique is carried out, verified and validated on a dataset of Warped Historical Arabic Documents based on affecting by warping percentage.
LET-Attack: Latent Encodings of Normal-Data Manifold Transferring to Adversarial Examples

Recent studies have highlighted the vulnerability and low robustness of deep learning model against adversarial examples. This issue limits their deployability on ubiquitous applications requiring a high level of security such as driverless system, unmanned aerial vehicle and intrusion detection. In this paper, we propose latent encodings transferring attack (LET-attack) to generate target natural adversarial examples to fool well-trained classifiers. In order to perturb in latent space, we train WGAN-variants on various datasets to achieve feature extraction, image reconstruction and image discrimination against counterfeit with good performance. Thanks to our two-stage procedure of mapping transformation, the adversary performs precise and semantic perturbations on source data referring to target data in latent space. By using the critic in WGAN-variant and the well-trained classifier, the adversary crafts more verisimilar and effective adversarial examples. As shown in the experimental results on MNIST, FashionMNIST, CIFAR-10 and LSUN, LET-attack can yield a distinct set of adversarial examples with partly data manifold targeted transfer and attains similar attack performance against state-of-the-art models in different attack scenarios. What is more, we evaluate LET-attack on the characteristic of transferability in different classifiers on MNIST and CIFAR-10 respectively, and find that the adversarial examples are easy to transfer with high confidence.

An Experimental Study of Deep Neural Networks on HPC Clusters

Deep neural networks (DNN) offer great opportunities for solving many problems associated with processing large-scale data. Building and using deep neural networks requires large computational resources. In this regard, the question naturally arises about the possibility of using HPC-systems for the implementation of DNN. In order to better understand the performance implications of DNN on High Performance clusters we analyze the performance of several DNN-models over 2 HPC systems: the Lomonosov-2 supercomputer (the section with processors equipped with P100 GPUs) and the Polus high-performance cluster based on IBM Power8 processors with P100 GPUs. Comparing these frameworks is interesting as they represent different types of processors (Intel for Lomonosov-2 and IBM for Polus). Apart from different processor architectures, these systems feature different internode communications, which may affect the performance of the analysed algorithms in case of parallel and distributed implementation of neural network algorithms. The studies were carried out on the basis of the PyTorch framework.

Quality evaluation of microphones used for lecture captures in universities

Recently, lecture capture has become progressively more important to Higher Education institutions. They allow automated recordings of lectures to be taken and stored for consumption by remote students or students who wish to revise the class. The technology involved has become increasingly complex and hence the need to independently assess the quality of recordings made by the microphones.This paper describes a recent series of experiments carried out with microphones commonly used for the live recording of lectures in university teaching rooms. Two laboratory-based experiments were designed to compare the audio recordings from the microphones; using nine Audio Visual engineers, that currently assess the perceived quality of lecture capture at universities. The ratings of the recordings were captured on a five-point mean opinion scale (MOS). Two different approaches to recording were followed, i.e. using simultaneous recording and substitution.Results were analysed by correlation to investigate if there is a significant relationship between the measurements of each of the six microphones, when compared to results from a class 1 sound level meter, and the quality rating by the engineers.

Optimization of transmission signal by artificial intelligent

&lt;p&gt;In this method, radial basis function network RBFNN is an artificial intelligent which is used to identify and classify the communication system performance. RBFNN is one type of neural network which has activation functions. It consists of three layer input layer, hidden layer and output linear combination. One of the main problems of communication system is that it causes slow response for sending signal via the transmission devices. Therefore, the artificial intelligent by RBFNN is used to optimize the transmission signal. The input signal is trained and testing by neurons with weight and this lead to provide linear output. The simulation results have the optimization specifics over the traditional communication transmission devices.&lt;/p&gt;

A Discourse Interpretation of Digitally Mediated Texts as Transformation Tools among Selected Whatsapp Users

The twenty-first century has witnessed social media discourse becoming part and parcel of our daily communication. Social media can therefore be described as a vibrant linguistic platform where various classes of people converge daily to communicate with one another on all issues bothering themselves personally and the macro societies in which they live. Apart from borderless chatting opportunities, WhatsApp users have the chance of posting their pictures in a photo-profile corner for their easy identity advertisement. In recent times, rather than posting personal pictures in their photo-profile corner, an inscription is displayed to create a relatively permanent message or impression, either confirming a principle or belief of the user or admonishing the individual’s contacts. The concern of this paper is to examine the relevance of selected texts displayed as profile pictures on WhatsApp in the quest for transformation of Africa as a society. Using critical theory framework, our paper shows that WhatsApp users deliberately make use of certain texts on their profile spaces to convey their ideologies. The paper concludes that WhatsApp is indeed a channel for free expression, and an opportunity for the spread of principles and ideologies which are capable of developing individuals as well as our society.
