چکیده

We present a very simple model for text quality assessment based on a deep convolutional neural network, where the only supervision required is one corpus of usergenerated text of varying quality, and one contrasting text corpus of consistently high quality. Our model is able to provide local quality assessments in different parts of a text, which allows visual feedback about where potentially problematic parts of the text are located, as well as a way to evaluate which textual features are captured by our model. We evaluate our method on two corpora: a large corpus of manually graded student essays and a longitudinal corpus of language learner written production, and find that the text quality metric learned by our model is a fairly strong predictor of both essay grade and learner proficiency level.

Convolutional Neural Networks for Direct Text Deblurring

In this work we address the problem of blind deconvolution and denoising. We focus on restoration of text documents and we show that this type of highly structured data can be successfully restored by a convolutional neural network. The networks are trained to reconstruct high-quality images directly from blurry inputs without assuming any specific blur and noise models. We demonstrate the perf...

Provide a Deep Convolutional Neural Network Optimized with Morphological Filters to Map Trees in Urban Environments Using Aerial Imagery

Today, we cannot ignore the role of trees in the quality of human life, so that the earth is inconceivable for humans without the presence of trees. In addition to their natural role, urban trees are also very important in terms of visual beauty. Aerial imagery using unmanned platforms with very high spatial resolution is available today. Convolutional neural networks based deep learning method...
