   Spread‐F (SF) is a feature that can be visually observed on ionograms when the ionosonde signals are significantly impacted by plasma irregularities in the ionosphere. Depending on the scale of the plasma irregularities, radio waves of different frequencies are impacted differently when the signals pass through the ionosphere. An automated method for detecting SF in ionograms is presented in this study. Through detecting the existence of SF in ionograms, we can help identify instances of plasma irregularities that are potentially affecting the high‐frequency radio‐wave systems. The ionogram images from Jicamarca observatory in Peru, during the years 2008–2019, are used in this study. Three machine learning approaches have been carried out: supervised learning using Support Vector Machines, and two neural network‐based learning methods: autoencoder and transfer learning. Of these three methods, the transfer learning approach, which uses convolutional neural network architectures, demonstrates the best performance. The best existing architecture that is suitable for this problem appears to be the ResNet50. With respect to the training epoch number, the ResNet50 showed the greatest change in the metric values for the key metrics that we were tracking. Furthermore, on a test set of 2050 ionograms, the model based on the ResNet50 architecture provides an accuracy of 89%, recall of 87%, precision of 95%, as well as Area Under the Curve of 96%. The work also provides a labeled data set of around 28,000 ionograms, which is extremely useful for the community for future machine learning studies.

3. GaMPEN: A Machine-learning Framework for Estimating Bayesian Posteriors of Galaxy Morphological Parameters

   https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ac7f9e  

   Ghosh অরিত্র, Aritra ঘোষ ; Urry, C. Megan ; Rau, Amrit ; Perreault-Levasseur, Laurence ; Cranmer, Miles ; Schawinski, Kevin ; Stark, Dominic ; Tian 田, Chuan 川. ; Ofman, Ryan ; Ananna, Tonima Tasnim ; et al ( August 2022 , The Astrophysical Journal)

   We introduce a novel machine-learning framework for estimating the Bayesian posteriors of morphological parameters for arbitrarily large numbers of galaxies. The Galaxy Morphology Posterior Estimation Network (GaMPEN) estimates values and uncertainties for a galaxy’s bulge-to-total-light ratio (L_B/L_T), effective radius (R_e), and flux (F). To estimate posteriors, GaMPEN uses the Monte Carlo Dropout technique and incorporates the full covariance matrix between the output parameters in its loss function. GaMPEN also uses a spatial transformer network (STN) to automatically crop input galaxy frames to an optimal size before determining their morphology. This will allow it to be applied to new data without prior knowledge of galaxy size. Training and testing GaMPEN on galaxies simulated to matchz< 0.25 galaxies in Hyper Suprime-Cam Wideg-band images, we demonstrate that GaMPEN achieves typical errors of 0.1 inL_B/L_T, 0.″17 (∼7%) inR_e, and 6.3 × 10⁴nJy (∼1%) inF. GaMPEN's predicted uncertainties are well calibrated and accurate (<5% deviation)—for regions of the parameter space with high residuals, GaMPEN correctly predicts correspondingly large uncertainties. We also demonstrate that we can apply categorical labels (i.e., classifications such ashighly bulge dominated) to predictions in regions with high residuals and verify that those labels are ≳97% accurate. To the best of our knowledge, GaMPEN is the first machine-learning framework for determining joint posterior distributions of multiple morphological parameters and is also the first application of an STN to optical imaging in astronomy.

4. Concept Detection and Caption Prediction in ImageCLEFmedical Caption 2023 with Convolutional Neural Networks; Vision and Text-to-Text Transfer Transformers

   Aliannejadi, M ; Faggioli, G ; Ferro, N ; Vlachos, M. (Ed.)

   This work discusses the participation of CS_Morgan in the Concept Detection and Caption Prediction tasks of the ImageCLEFmedical 2023 Caption benchmark evaluation campaign. The goal of this task is to automatically identify relevant concepts and their locations in images, as well as generate coherent captions for the images. The dataset used for this task is a subset of the extended Radiology Objects in Context (ROCO) dataset. The implementation approach employed by us involved the use of pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Vision Transformer (ViT), and Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer (T5) architectures. These models were leveraged to handle the different aspects of the tasks, such as concept detection and caption generation. In the Concept Detection task, the objective was to classify multiple concepts associated with each image. We utilized several deep learning architectures with ‘sigmoid’ activation to enable multilabel classification using the Keras framework. We submitted a total of five (5) runs for this task, and the best run achieved an F1 score of 0.4834, indicating its effectiveness in detecting relevant concepts in the images. For the Caption Prediction task, we successfully submitted eight (8) runs. Our approach involved combining the ViT and T5 models to generate captions for the images. For the caption prediction task, the ranking is based on the BERTScore, and our best run achieved a score of 0.5819 based on generating captions using the fine-tuned T5 model from keywords generated using the pretrained ViT as the encoder.

5. Traceability Transformed: Generating More Accurate Links with Pre-Trained BERT Models

   https://doi.org/10.1109/ICSE43902.2021.00040

   Software traceability establishes and leverages associations between diverse development artifacts. Researchers have proposed the use of deep learning trace models to link natural language artifacts, such as requirements and issue descriptions, to source code; however, their effectiveness has been restricted by availability of labeled data and efficiency at runtime. In this study, we propose a novel framework called Trace BERT (T-BERT) to generate trace links between source code and natural language artifacts. To address data sparsity, we leverage a three-step training strategy to enable trace models to transfer knowledge from a closely related Software Engineering challenge, which has a rich dataset, to produce trace links with much higher accuracy than has previously been achieved. We then apply the T-BERT framework to recover links between issues and commits in Open Source Projects. We comparatively evaluated accuracy and efficiency of three BERT architectures. Results show that a Single-BERT architecture generated the most accurate links, while a Siamese-BERT architecture produced comparable results with significantly less execution time. Furthermore, by learning and transferring knowledge, all three models in the framework outperform classical IR trace models. On the three evaluated real-word OSS projects, the best T-BERT stably outperformed the VSM model with average improvements of 60.31% measured using Mean Average Precision (MAP). RNN severely underperformed on these projects due to insufficient training data, while T-BERT overcame this problem by using pretrained language models and transfer learning.
