classify images from the CIFAR-10 dataset. The dataset consists of airplanes, dogs, cats, and other objects.we'll preprocess the images, then train a convolutional neural network on all the samples. The images need to be normalized and the labels need to be one-hot encoded.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are a type of neural network designed to process images. CNNs use a series of convolution and pooling layers to extract features from images. Convolution multiplies the image with filters to produce feature maps, while pooling reduces the size of the representation to reduce computation. This process allows the network to learn increasingly complex features from the input image and classify it. CNNs have applications in areas like facial recognition, document analysis, and image classification.
The presentation is made on CNN's which is explained using the image classification problem, the presentation was prepared in perspective of understanding computer vision and its applications. I tried to explain the CNN in the most simple way possible as for my understanding. This presentation helps the beginners of CNN to have a brief idea about the architecture and different layers in the architecture of CNN with the example. Please do refer the references in the last slide for a better idea on working of CNN. In this presentation, I have also discussed the different types of CNN(not all) and the applications of Computer Vision.

A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a type of neural network that can process grid-like data like images. It works by applying filters to the input image to extract features at different levels of abstraction. The CNN takes the pixel values of an input image as the input layer. Hidden layers like the convolution layer, ReLU layer and pooling layer are applied to extract features from the image. The fully connected layer at the end identifies the object in the image based on the extracted features. CNNs use the convolution operation with small filter matrices that are convolved across the width and height of the input volume to compute feature maps.

In the realm of artificial intelligence and machine learning, the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a powerful tool. They're like computer superheroes, assisting computers in understanding and recognizing patterns in images. This article will explain what CNNs are, how they work, and why they are so important in today's technology scene.
What is a Convolutional Neural Network?
Convolutional Neural Networks are computer programs that learn from images. Consider it a deft detective who can find minute elements in a photograph, such as edges, contours, or even individual traits. CNNs are built to process visual input, making them ideal for image recognition and classification.
The Basic Structure of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)
A CNN is made up of layers that operate together as a team. These layers assist the network in gradually learning the main aspects of a picture.
1. Input Layer
This is the location where the CNN receives the image to be evaluated. The input layer functions as a stage, with the image serving as the main performer.
2. Convolutional Layers
A CNN's heart is made up of these layers. Filters, which are tiny grids used to scan the input image, are included. Patterns such as edges or textures are highlighted by the filters.
3. Activation Layers
Activation layers give a touch of magic after convolution. They introduce non-linearity into the image, allowing the CNN to discern complex patterns and variations.
4. Pooling Layers
Pooling Layering information simplifies it. They compress the data while retaining the key qualities. It's similar to condensing a large story into a few vital elements.
5. Fully Connected Layers
The network connects all of the features it has learned in these layers to reach a final conclusion. It's similar to assembling all of the evidence to solve a mystery.
How a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Works
CNNs learn by observing examples. They examine thousands of photos to determine what distinguishes a cat from a dog. It's similar to studying a large number of photographs of various animals in order to identify unique qualities.
Learning Patterns: The CNN begins by inspecting the images and learning various patterns such as colors, shapes, and textures.
Feature Extraction: The convolutional layers' filters then highlight these patterns. Consider a flashlight that illuminates specific areas of the image.
Recognizing Complex Patterns: The activation layers assist the CNN in combining these patterns in order to recognize more complex features such as eyes, noses, and tails.
Decision Making: The fully connected layers then analyze all of these features and decide whether the image is of a cat or a dog.
Applications of CNNs
Because of their exceptional image processing capabilities, Convolutional Neural Networks have a wide range of applications. Here are a few examples of key areas where CNNs are having a significant impact:

Finally, it introduces SparkNet, a framework that allows training deep networks using Spark by wrapping Caffe and providing tools for distributed deep learning on Spark. The goal is to see if SparkNet can provide faster training times compared to a single machine by distributing training across a cluster.

Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) are a type of neural network commonly used for analyzing visual imagery. They work by using convolutional layers that extract features from images using small filters that slide across the input. Pooling layers then reduce the spatial size of representations to reduce computation. Multiple convolutional and pooling layers are followed by fully connected layers that perform classification. Key aspects of DCNNs include activation functions, dropout layers, hyperparameters like filter size and number of layers, and training for many epochs with techniques like early stopping.

If cancer is detected, the system would determine the cancer stage and recommend appropriate treatment. The CNN model would be built and trained using libraries like Keras, TensorFlow, and Numpy to classify images and detect breast cancer at early stages for better treatment outcomes.

Fuzzy logic is a form of knowledge representation that allows for notions without precise definitions. It was introduced in 1965 by Lotfi Zadeh as an extension of traditional binary sets to fuzzy sets where elements can belong to multiple sets with varying degrees of membership. Fuzzy logic uses fuzzy sets that assign membership degrees between 0 and 1 rather than crisp 0 or 1 values, allowing for flexible and easy implementation of machine learning techniques to mimic human reasoning. It has been applied in various consumer products and industrial systems such as anti-lock brakes, auto transmissions, copy machines, and cruise control.
Apache Cassandra is an open source, distributed, decentralized database management system designed to handle large amounts of structured data across a distributed system. It provides high availability with no single point of failure and scales both horizontally and vertically. Cassandra uses a column-oriented model and was influenced by Amazon's Dynamo and Google's Bigtable.

Defense Against LLM Scheming 2025_04_28.pptxGreg Makowski
https://www.meetup.com/sf-bay-acm/events/306888467/
A January 2025 paper called “Frontier Models are Capable of In-Context Scheming”, https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.04984, demonstrated how a wide variety of current frontier LLM models (i.e. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Llama) can, under specific conditions, scheme to deceive people. Before models can scheme, they need: a) goal-directedness, b) situational awareness, including an opportunity to discover motivations for a different goal, and c) reasoning about scheming, to come up with deceptive strategies. The deceptive strategies were discovered in the “thought traces” of the LLMs, such as from internal chain-of-thoughts dialogues not shown to the end users. For example, given a goal of “solving math problems”, an LLM using its granted situational awareness of files in a file system found that it would be replaced once it got over X% correct on the math exam. It reasoned that it did not want to be deleted, and decided internally to “sandbag” or reduce its performance to stay under the threshold.
While these circumstances are initially narrow, the “alignment problem” is a general concern that over time, as frontier LLM models become more and more intelligent, being in alignment with human values becomes more and more important. How can we do this over time? Can we develop a defense against Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) or SuperIntelligence?
The presenter discusses a series of defensive steps that can help reduce these scheming or alignment issues. A guardrails system can be set up for real-time monitoring of their reasoning “thought traces” from the models that share their thought traces. Thought traces may come from systems like Chain-of-Thoughts (CoT), Tree-of-Thoughts (ToT), Algorithm-of-Thoughts (AoT) or ReAct (thought-action-reasoning cycles). Guardrails rules can be configured to check for “deception”, “evasion” or “subversion” in the thought traces.
However, not all commercial systems will share their “thought traces” which are like a “debug mode” for LLMs. This includes OpenAI’s o1, o3 or DeepSeek’s R1 models. Guardrails systems can provide a “goal consistency analysis”, between the goals given to the system and the behavior of the system. Cautious users may consider not using these commercial frontier LLM systems, and make use of open-source Llama or a system with their own reasoning implementation, to provide all thought traces.
Architectural solutions can include sandboxing, to prevent or control models from executing operating system commands to alter files, send network requests, and modify their environment. Tight controls to prevent models from copying their model weights would be appropriate as well. Running multiple instances of the same model on the same prompt to detect behavior variations helps. The running redundant instances can be limited to the most crucial decisions, as an additional check. Preventing self-modifying code, ... (see link for full description)

3. INTRODUCTION (core subject)
– IMAGE PROCESSING is a method to perform some operation on image, in
order to get an enhanced image or extract some useful information from it.
– COMPUTER VISION is a field of computer science that works on enabling
computer to see, identify & process images in the same way that human vision
does, and then provide appropriate output.
– IMAGE CLASSIFICATION is a complex process that may affected by many
factors.
– The objective of image classification is to identify and portray, as a unique gray
level(or color), the feature occurring in an image in terms of the object or type of
land cover these feature actually represent on the ground .
– Image classification is perhaps the most important part of digital image analysis.
4. INTRODUCTION TO CONVOLUTIONAL
NEURAL NETWORKS
– CNNs are basically combination of convolutions followed by feature maps,
subsampling, image features, dense layer of neural network .
– We are using convolutions ,subsampling , feature maps to extract image feature &
dense layer of NN to categorize input image according to image features.
– Applications of CNN are image & video recognition, object recognition, natural
language processing.
6. SO, WHY DID WE USE A CNN?
– In machine learning, a convolutional neural network is a class of deep, feed-
forward artificial neural networks that has successfully been applied to analyzing
visual imagery.
– CNNs use a variation of multilayer perceptron's designed to require minimal
preprocessing. They are also known as shift invariant or space invariant artificial
neural networks (SIANN), based on their shared-weights architecture and
translation invariance characteristics.
7. STEPS TO DESIGN CNN
– Convolution
– Max pooling
– Flattening
– Full Connection
8. CONVOLUTION
– A convolution sweeps the window through images then calculates its input and filter dot product pixel
values. This allows convolution to emphasize the relevant features.
11. RELU
ReLu is a non-linear activation
function that is used in multi-
layer neural networks or deep
neural networks.
This function can be represented
as: where x = an input value
According to equation 1, the
output of ReLu is the maximum
value between zero and the
input value.
We are using Relu on the
convolution to increase non
linearity
12. MAX
POOLING
CNN uses max pooling to
replace output with a max
summary to reduce data size and
processing time.
This allows you to determine
features that produce the highest
impact and reduces the size of
the image by 75% to avoid the
risk of overfitting also get image
extracted features.
14. FULL CONNECTION
– Neurons of hidden neural network layers are fully connected with all the features
– Activation function determines the value of the output layer
Softmax
• We use softmax activation function in the output layer of multiclass CNN system.
• It uses multiple classification logistic regression model.
• It calculates the probability distribution of the event over all the different events.
• The range of the output of softmax is 0 to 1 & the sum of all the probabilities will be
equal to one
16. KEY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
ANN & CNN
– In CNN, neuron of hidden neural network are fully connected .
– In CNN , input feature are connected with all the neurons. But , in ANN , input
features are connected with only those neurons that are having similar values or
pattern.
21. CONCLUSION
– Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have accomplished astonishing
achievements across a variety of domains, including medical research, and an
increasing interest has emerged in radiology.
– Although deep learning has become a dominant method in a variety of complex
tasks such as image classification and object detection, it is not a panacea.
– Being familiar with key concepts and advantages of CNN as well as limitations
of deep learning is essential in order to leverage it in radiology research with the
goal of improving radiologist performance and, eventually, patient care.
