data augmentation

Respiratory diseases are major global killers, demanding early diagnosis for effective management. Digital stethoscopes offer promise, but face limitations in storage and transmission. A compressive sensing-based compression algorithm is needed to address these constraints. Meanwhile, fast-reconstruction CS algorithms are sought to balance speed and fidelity. Sound event detection algorithms are crucial for identifying abnormal lung sounds and augmenting diagnostic accuracy. Integrating these technologies can revolutionize respiratory disease management, enhancing patient outcomes.

Globally, respiratory diseases are the leading cause of death, making it essential to develop an automatic respiratory sounds software to speed up diagnosis and reduce physician workload. A recent line of attempts have been proposed to predict accurately, but they have yet been able to provide a satisfactory generalization performance. In this contest, we invited the community to develop more accurate and generalized respiratory sound algorithms. A starter code is provided to standardize the submissions and lower the barrier.

This dataset is associated with TODOS: Thermal sensOr Data-driven Occupancy Estimation System for Smart Buildings. It is a novel system for estimating occupancy in intelligent buildings, TODOS uses a low-cost, low-power thermal sensor array along with a passive infrared sensor. We introduce a novel data processing pipeline that allows us to automatically extract features from the thermal images using an artificial neural network. Through an extensive experimental evaluation, we show that TODOS provides occupancy detection accuracy of 98% to 100% under different scenarios.

Data diversity and volume are crucial to the success of training deep learning models, while in the medical imaging field, the difficulty and cost of data collection and annotation are especially huge. Specifically in robotic surgery, data scarcity and imbalance have heavily affected the model accuracy and limited the design and deployment of deep learning-based surgical applications such as surgical instrument segmentation.

Data augmentation is commonly used to increase the size and diversity of the datasets in machine learning. It is of particular importance to evaluate the robustness of the existing machine learning methods. With progress in geometrical and 3D machine learning, many methods exist to augment a 3D object, from the generation of random orientations to exploring different perspectives of an object. In high-precision applications, the machine learning model must be robust with respect to the small perturbations of the input object.

Most of Facial Expression Recognition (FER) systems rely on machine learning approaches that require large databases (DBs) for an effective training. As these are not easily available, a good solution is to augment the DBs with appropriate techniques, which are typically based on either geometric transformation or deep learning based technologies (e.g., Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs)). Whereas the first category of techniques have been fairly adopted in the past, studies that use GAN-based techniques are limited for FER systems.
