Multi-focus image fusion based on fully convolutional networks Research Articles

Rui Guo, Xuan-jing Shen, Xiao-yu Dong, Xiao-li Zhang,zhangxiaoli@jlu.edu.cn

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2020, Volume 21, Issue 7,   Pages 963-1118 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1900336

Abstract: We propose a method, in which a fully convolutional network for focus detection (FD-FCN) is constructed. To obtain more precise focus detection maps, we propose to add s in the network to make both detailed and abstract visual information available when using FD-FCN to generate maps. A new training dataset for the proposed network is constructed based on dataset CIFAR-10. The image fusion algorithm using FD-FCN contains three steps: focus maps are obtained using FD-FCN, decision map generation occurs by applying a morphological process on the focus maps, and image fusion occurs using a decision map. We carry out several sets of experiments, and both subjective and objective assessments demonstrate the superiority of the proposed fusion method to state-of-the-art algorithms.

Amultimodal dense convolution network for blind image quality assessment Research Article

Nandhini CHOCKALINGAM, Brindha MURUGAN

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2023, Volume 24, Issue 11,   Pages 1601-1615 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2200534

Abstract: Technological advancements continue to expand the communications industry’s potential. Images, which are an important component in strengthening communication, are widely available. Therefore, image quality assessment (IQA) is critical in improving content delivered to end users. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) used in IQA face two common challenges. One issue is that these methods fail to provide the best representation of the image. The other issue is that the models have a large number of parameters, which easily leads to overfitting. To address these issues, the dense convolution network (DSC-Net), a model with fewer parameters, is proposed for . Moreover, it is obvious that the use of multimodal data for has improved the performance of applications. As a result, fuses the texture features extracted using the gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) method and spatial features extracted using DSC-Net and predicts the image quality. The performance of the proposed framework on the benchmark synthetic datasets LIVE, TID2013, and KADID-10k demonstrates that the MDSC-Net approach achieves good performance over state-of-the-art methods for the NR-IQA task.

Cheng-cheng Li, Ren-chao Xie, Tao Huang, Yun-jie Liu,lengcangche@bupt.edu.cn,renchao_xie@bupt.edu.cn,htao@bupt.edu.cn

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2017, Volume 18, Issue 10,   Pages 1573-1590 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1601585

Abstract: As a promising future network architecture, named data networking (NDN) has been widely considered as a very appropriate network protocol for the (MWN). In named-data MWNs, is a critical issue. Independent optimization for may cause severe performance degradation if it can not cooperate well with protocols in other layers. Cross-layer is a potential method to enhance performance. There have been many cross-layer mechanisms for MWN with Internet Protocol (IP). However, these cross-layer mechanisms for MWNs with IP are not applicable to named-data MWNs because the communication characteristics of NDN are different from those of IP. In this paper, we study the joint , forwarding strategy, and link scheduling problem for named-data MWNs. The problem is modeled as a network utility maximization (NUM) problem. Based on the approximate subgradient algorithm, we propose an algorithm called ‘jointly optimized , forwarding strategy, and link scheduling (JOCFS)’ to solve the NUM problem distributively and iteratively. To the best of our knowledge, our proposal is the first cross-layer mechanism for named-data MWNs. By comparison with the existing mechanism, JOCFS can achieve a better performance in terms of network throughput, fairness, and the pending interest table (PIT) size.

IEEE 802.16 Mesh Network SA Management Mechanism Based on Multi-hops Mutual Authentication

Wang Xingjian,Hu Aiqun,Huang Yuhua

Strategic Study of CAE 2006, Volume 8, Issue 9,   Pages 69-73

Abstract:

Mesh network supported by IEEE802.16-2004 wireless-MAN standard is a fresh network combining tree network and ad hoc network. Aimed at the weakness both in security and efficiency of one-hop one-way authentication SA (security association) mechanism employed by Mesh network, an multi-hops mutual authentication SA mechanism associated with hypo- optimal self-modified routing is proposed. Compared with the one-hop one-way mechanism, this one is of forward security and immune to middle attacks, which also lessens system cost and time delay in transmission. The employment of self-modified routing before touting establishment in management information transaction can also reduce the delay of service-flow creation. Subsequently, the security of multi-hops mutual mechanism is proved by security analysis, followed by the efficiency comparison which introduces the efficiency advantage of this mechanism.

Xiaolong CHEN, Xiaoqian MU, Jian GUAN, Ningbo LIU, Wei ZHOU,cxlcxl1209@163.com,guanjian_68@163.com

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 4,   Pages 630-643 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000611

Abstract: As a classic deep learning target detection algorithm, Faster R-CNN (region convolutional neural network) has been widely used in high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and inverse SAR (ISAR) image detection. However, for most common low-resolution radar , it is difficult to achieve good performance. In this paper, taking PPI images as an example, a method based on the Marine-Faster R-CNN algorithm is proposed in the case of complex background (e.‍g., sea clutter) and target characteristics. The method performs feature extraction and target recognition on PPI images generated by radar echoes with the . First, to improve the accuracy of detecting marine targets and reduce the false alarm rate, Faster R-CNN was optimized as the Marine-Faster R-CNN in five respects: new backbone network, anchor size, dense target detection, data sample balance, and scale normalization. Then, JRC (Japan Radio Co., Ltd.) was used to collect echo data under different conditions to build a marine target dataset. Finally, comparisons with the classic Faster R-CNN method and the constant false alarm rate (CFAR) algorithm proved that the proposed method is more accurate and robust, has stronger generalization ability, and can be applied to the detection of marine targets for . Its performance was tested with datasets from different observation conditions (sea states, radar parameters, and different targets).

Real-Time Assessment and Diagnosis of Process Operating Performance

Shabnam Sedghi,Biao Huang

Engineering 2017, Volume 3, Issue 2,   Pages 214-219 doi: 10.1016/J.ENG.2017.02.004

Abstract:

Over time, the performance of processes may deviate from the initial design due to process variations and uncertainties, making it necessary to develop systematic methods for online optimality assessment based on routine operating process data. Some processes have multiple operating modes caused by the set point change of the critical process variables to achieve different product specifications. On the other hand, the operating region in each operating mode can alter, due to uncertainties. In this paper, we will establish an optimality assessment framework for processes that typically have multi-mode, multi-region operations, as well as transitions between different modes. The kernel density approach for mode detection is adopted and improved for operating mode detection. For online mode detection, the model-based clustering discriminant analysis (MclustDA) approach is incorporated with some a priori knowledge of the system. In addition, multi-modal behavior of steady-state modes is tackled utilizing the mixture probabilistic principal component regression (MPPCR) method, and dynamic principal component regression (DPCR) is used to investigate transitions between different modes. Moreover, a probabilistic causality detection method based on the sequential forward floating search (SFFS) method is introduced for diagnosing poor or non-optimum behavior. Finally, the proposed method is tested on the Tennessee Eastman (TE) benchmark simulation process in order to evaluate its performance.

Video summarization with a graph convolutional attention network Research Articles

Ping Li, Chao Tang, Xianghua Xu,patriclouis.lee@gmail.com

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 6,   Pages 902-913 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000429

Abstract: has established itself as a fundamental technique for generating compact and concise video, which alleviates managing and browsing large-scale video data. Existing methods fail to fully consider the local and global relations among frames of video, leading to a deteriorated summarization performance. To address the above problem, we propose a graph convolutional attention network (GCAN) for . GCAN consists of two parts, embedding learning and , where embedding learning includes the temporal branch and graph branch. In particular, GCAN uses dilated temporal convolution to model local cues and temporal self-attention to exploit global cues for video frames. It learns graph embedding via a multi-layer to reveal the intrinsic structure of frame samples. The part combines the output streams from the temporal branch and graph branch to create the context-aware representation of frames, on which the importance scores are evaluated for selecting representative frames to generate video summary. Experiments are carried out on two benchmark databases, SumMe and TVSum, showing that the proposed GCAN approach enjoys superior performance compared to several state-of-the-art alternatives in three evaluation settings.

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 12,   Pages 1848-1861 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2200035

Abstract: Analyzing the of in is generally regarded as a challenging problem. Although existing studies can extract some critical rules, they fail to capture the complex subtleties under different operational conditions. In recent years, several deep learning methods have been applied to address this issue. However, most of the existing deep learning methods consider only the grid topology of a power system in terms of topological connections, but do not encompass a power system's spatial information such as the electrical distance to increase the accuracy in the process of graph convolution. In this paper, we construct a novel power- that uses power system topology and spatial information to optimize the edge weight assignment of the line graph. Then we propose a multi-graph convolutional network (MGCN) based on a graph classification task, which preserves a power system's spatial correlations and captures the relationships among physical components. Our model can better handle the problem with that have parallel lines, where our method can maintain desirable accuracy in modeling systems with these extra topology features. To increase the interpretability of the model, we present the MGCN using layer-wise relevance propagation and quantify the contributing factors of model classification.

De-scattering and edge-enhancement algorithms for underwater image restoration Research Papers

Pan-wang PAN, Fei YUAN, En CHENG

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2019, Volume 20, Issue 6,   Pages 862-871 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1700744

Abstract:

Image restoration is a critical procedure for underwater images, which suffer from serious color deviation and edge blurring. Restoration can be divided into two stages: de-scattering and edge enhancement. First, we introduce a multi-scale iterative framework for underwater image de-scattering, where a convolutional neural network is used to estimate the transmission map and is followed by an adaptive bilateral filter to refine the estimated results. Since there is no available dataset to train the network, a dataset which includes 2000 underwater images is collected to obtain the synthetic data. Second, a strategy based on white balance is proposed to remove color casts of underwater images. Finally, images are converted to a special transform domain for denoising and enhancing the edge using the non-subsampled contourlet transform. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods both qualitatively and quantitatively.

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 9,   Pages 1179-1193 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000243

Abstract: The prediction of regional traffic flows is important for traffic control and management in an intelligent traffic system. With the help of deep neural networks, the convolutional neural network or residual neural network, which can be applied only to regular grids, is adopted to capture the spatial dependence for flow prediction. However, the obtained regions are always irregular considering the road network and administrative boundaries; thus, dividing the city into grids is inaccurate for prediction. In this paper, we propose a new model based on and (MGCN-GRU) to predict traffic flows for . Specifically, we first construct heterogeneous inter-region graphs for a city to reflect the relationships among regions. In each graph, nodes represent the and edges represent the relationship types between regions. Then, we propose a to fuse different inter-region graphs and additional attributes. The GRU is further used to capture the temporal dependence and to predict future traffic flows. Experimental results based on three real-world large-scale datasets (public bicycle system dataset, taxi dataset, and dockless bike-sharing dataset) show that our MGCN-GRU model outperforms a variety of existing methods.

Estimating Rainfall Intensity Using an Image-Based Deep Learning Model Article

Hang Yin, Feifei Zheng, Huan-Feng Duan, Dragan Savic, Zoran Kapelan

Engineering 2023, Volume 21, Issue 2,   Pages 162-174 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2021.11.021

Abstract:

Urban flooding is a major issue worldwide, causing huge economic losses and serious threats to public safety. One promising way to mitigate its impacts is to develop a real-time flood risk management system; however, building such a system is often challenging due to the lack of high spatiotemporal rainfall data. While some approaches (i.e., ground rainfall stations or radar and satellite techniques) are available to measure and/or predict rainfall intensity, it is difficult to obtain accurate rainfall data with a desirable spatiotemporal resolution using these methods. This paper proposes an image-based deep learning model to estimate urban rainfall intensity with high spatial and temporal resolution. More specifically, a convolutional neural network (CNN) model called the image-based rainfall CNN (irCNN) model is developed using rainfall images collected from existing dense sensors (i.e., smart phones or transportation cameras) and their corresponding measured rainfall intensity values. The trained irCNN model is subsequently employed to efficiently estimate rainfall intensity based on the sensors' rainfall images. Synthetic rainfall data and real rainfall images are respectively utilized to explore the irCNN's accuracy in theoretically and practically simulating rainfall intensity. The results show that the irCNN model provides rainfall estimates with a mean absolute percentage error ranging between 13.5% and 21.9%, which exceeds the performance of other state-of-the-art modeling techniques in the literature. More importantly, the main feature of the proposed irCNN is its low cost in efficiently acquiring high spatiotemporal urban rainfall data. The irCNN model provides a promising alternative for estimating urban rainfall intensity, which can greatly facilitate the development of urban flood risk management in a real-time manner.

Strategic Study of CAE 2020, Volume 22, Issue 2,   Pages 120-129 doi: 10.15302/J-SSCAE-2020.02.016

Abstract:

 The analysis of technology convergence process for strategic emerging industries is helpful to deeply understand the generation process and development law of industrial technology, thereby helping master the development trend of the field and promoting the healthy development of the industry. To identify the trajectory and degree of technology convergence of the strategic emerging industries, this study conducts a multi-case study on four fields which present a trend of convergence and attract social attention, namely, high-end equipment manufacturing, new-generation information technology, new medicine, and new energy. This study adopts a knowledge convergence trajectory analysis method based on citation network and text information. It utilizes a graph neural network model and encodes the citation network, title, and abstract of the publications as vectors. Five knowledge convergence trajectories are identified, after analyzing the data of the selected four technical fields. The research results show that information technology and numerical control equipment, biomedicine and solar photovoltaic technology have shown a trend of deep convergence, respectively; and the convergence of the information technology and numerical control equipment is deeper. Numerical control equipment and solar photovoltaic technology, information technology and solar photovoltaic technology have shown a converging trend, respectively; however, the current degree of convergence is still insufficient, due to the late start of convergence. Numerical control equipment and biomedicine have not shown any trend of convergence.

Two-level hierarchical feature learning for image classification Article

Guang-hui SONG,Xiao-gang JIN,Gen-lang CHEN,Yan NIE

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2016, Volume 17, Issue 9,   Pages 897-906 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1500346

Abstract: In some image classification tasks, similarities among different categories are different and the samples are usually misclassified as highly similar categories. To distinguish highly similar categories, more specific features are required so that the classifier can improve the classification performance. In this paper, we propose a novel two-level hierarchical feature learning framework based on the deep convolutional neural network (CNN), which is simple and effective. First, the deep feature extractors of different levels are trained using the transfer learning method that fine-tunes the pre-trained deep CNN model toward the new target dataset. Second, the general feature extracted from all the categories and the specific feature extracted from highly similar categories are fused into a feature vector. Then the final feature representation is fed into a linear classifier. Finally, experiments using the Caltech-256, Oxford Flower-102, and Tasmania Coral Point Count (CPC) datasets demonstrate that the expression ability of the deep features resulting from two-level hierarchical feature learning is powerful. Our proposed method effectively increases the classification accuracy in comparison with flat multiple classification methods.
