Abstract. Instream large wood (i.e. downed trees, branches, and roots larger than 1m in length 10 cm diameter) performs essential geomorphological ecological functions that support the health of river ecosystems. However, even though its transport during floods may pose risks, it is rarely observed remains poorly understood. This paper presents a novel approach for detecting floating pieces instream videos. The uses convolutional neural network to automatically detect wood. We sampled data represent different conditions, combining 20 datasets yield thousands images. designed multiple scenarios using subsets with without augmentation. analysed contribution each scenario effectiveness model k-fold cross-validation. mean average precision varies between 35 % 93 influenced by quality detects. When 418-pixel input image resolution, detects an overall 67 %. Improvements up 23 could be achieved some instances, increasing resolution raised weighted 74 demonstrate detection performance on specific dataset not solely determined complexity or training data. Therefore, findings this used when designing custom network. With growing availability flood-related videos featuring uploaded internet, methodology facilitates quantification across wide variety sources.

Online social networks (OSNs) are fertile ground for information sharing and public relationships. However, the uncontrolled dissemination of poses a significant risk inadvertent disclosure sensitive information. This notable challenge to security many organizations. Improving organizations’ ability automatically identify data leaked within image-based content requires specialized techniques. In contrast traditional vision-based tasks, detecting images presents unique due context-dependent nature sparsity target objects, as well possibility that these objects may appear in an image inadvertently background or small elements rather than central focus image. this paper, we investigated multiple state-of-the-art deep learning methods detect censored We conducted case study utilizing Instagram published by members large organization. Six types were not intended exposure detected with average accuracy 0.9454 macro F1-score 0.658. A further analysis relevant OSN revealed contained confidential information, exposing organization its risks.
