Deep learning for image super resolutionPrudhvi Raj
Using Deep Convolutional Networks, the machine can learn end-to-end mapping between the low/high-resolution images. Unlike traditional methods, this method jointly optimizes all the layers of the image. A light-weight CNN structure is used, which is simple to implement and provides formidable trade-off from the existential methods.

Tutorial on Theory and Application of Generative Adversarial NetworksMLReview
Description
Generative adversarial network (GAN) has recently emerged as a promising generative modeling approach. It consists of a generative network and a discriminative network. Through the competition between the two networks, it learns to model the data distribution. In addition to modeling the image/video distribution in computer vision problems, the framework finds use in defining visual concept using examples. To a large extent, it eliminates the need of hand-crafting objective functions for various computer vision problems. In this tutorial, we will present an overview of generative adversarial network research. We will cover several recent theoretical studies as well as training techniques and will also cover several vision applications of generative adversarial networks.

Deep learning technologies are at the core of the current revolution in artificial intelligence for multimedia data analysis. The convergence of large-scale annotated datasets and affordable GPU hardware has allowed the training of neural networks for data analysis tasks which were previously addressed with hand-crafted features. Architectures such as convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks or Q-nets for reinforcement learning have shaped a brand new scenario in signal processing. This course will cover the basic principles of deep learning from both an algorithmic and computational perspectives.
Supervised learning is a category of machine learning that uses labeled datasets to train algorithms to predict outcomes and recognize patterns. Unlike unsupervised learning, supervised learning algorithms are given labeled training to learn the relationship between the input and the outputs.
Supervised machine learning algorithms make it easier for organizations to create complex models that can make accurate predictions. As a result, they are widely used across various industries and fields, including healthcare, marketing, financial services, and more.
Here, we’ll cover the fundamentals of supervised learning in AI, how supervised learning algorithms work, and some of its most common use cases.

How does supervised learning work?
The data used in supervised learning is labeled — meaning that it contains examples of both inputs (called features) and correct outputs (labels). The algorithms analyze a large dataset of these training pairs to infer what a desired output value would be when asked to make a prediction on new data.
For instance, let’s pretend you want to teach a model to identify pictures of trees. You provide a labeled dataset that contains many different examples of types of trees and the names of each species. You let the algorithm try to define what set of characteristics belongs to each tree based on the labeled outputs. You can then test the model by showing it a tree picture and asking it to guess what species it is. If the model provides an incorrect answer, you can continue training it and adjusting its parameters with more examples to improve its accuracy and minimize errors.
Once the model has been trained and tested, you can use it to make predictions on unknown data based on the previous knowledge it has learned.

Online aptitude test management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
The purpose of on-line aptitude test system is to take online test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line aptitude test system is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. This can be used in educational institutions as well as in corporate world. Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user Location doesn’t matter). No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes the test.
Every time when lecturers/professors need to conduct examinations they have to sit down think about the questions and then create a whole new set of questions for each and every exam. In some cases the professor may want to give an open book online exam that is the student can take the exam any time anywhere, but the student might have to answer the questions in a limited time period. The professor may want to change the sequence of questions for every student. The problem that a student has is whenever a date for the exam is declared the student has to take it and there is no way he can take it at some other time. This project will create an interface for the examiner to create and store questions in a repository. It will also create an interface for the student to take examinations at his convenience and the questions and/or exams may be timed. Thereby creating an application which can be used by examiners and examinee’s simultaneously.
Examination System is very useful for Teachers/Professors. As in the teaching profession, you are responsible for writing question papers. In the conventional method, you write the question paper on paper, keep question papers separate from answers and all this information you have to keep in a locker to avoid unauthorized access. Using the Examination System you can create a question paper and everything will be written to a single exam file in encrypted format. You can set the General and Administrator password to avoid unauthorized access to your question paper. Every time you start the examination, the program shuffles all the questions and selects them randomly from the database, which reduces the chances of memorizing the questions.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

The model does not generate realistic faces.
The Gaussian distribution assumption is too simplistic.
Each generated image is just a linear random combination of the eigenvectors.
The generator corresponds to a linear neural network (without non-linearities). 7

But the concept is interesting: can we find a transformation such that each
random code can be mapped to a photo-realistic image?
We need to find a way to assess if an image is photo-realistic.

• Generator network: Consider a given discriminative model x → Dθd (x)
and consider Trand a set of m random latent vectors.

• Interpolate the 4 points by finding the coefficients a, b, c and d of
f(x, y) = ax + by + cxy + d

• The solution of minimum norm is given by: xHR+

where H+
is the Moore-Penrose pseudo-inverse.
• But, as the problem is ill-posed:
• small perturbations in xLR
lead to large errors in xHR+

• and unfortunately xLR
is often corrupted by noise,
• or xLR
is quantized/compressed/encoded with limited precision.

• Properties of solutions have been well studied,
• Convex optimization.
• Cons:
• Based on hand-crafted regularization priors,
• Unable to model correctly the subtle patterns of natural images,
• Results are often blobby and not photo-realistic,
• Require to model correctly the subsampling S and blur B,
• Slow and not available in standard image processing toolboxes.
• Still relevant for multi-frame super-resolution

Super-resolution – SRGAN (Twitter, Ledig et al., CVPR 2017)
For large upsampling factors 4:
• It becomes unrealistic to expect localizing exactly the edges,
• The MSE highly penalizes misplaced edges (even for a few pixel shift),
• Blurry solutions have lower MSE than sharp ones with misplaced edges,
⇒ The system will never be able to reconstruct high frequency content.
Idea: use a perceptual loss based on
• content loss to force SR images to be perceptually similar to the HR ones,
• adversarial loss to force SR results to be photo-realistic.
Connection with GAN: Learn to fool a discriminator trained to distinguish
Super-Resolved images from HR photo-realistic ones.
