Junlin MA, Yan XING, Qun GAO, Jie DU, and Ying LIU
To meet the requirements of the micro-miniature air-to-air missile and solve the problem of not reaching full field angle, this paper presents a micro-miniature infrared seeker with roll-pitch structure, applying the integration philosophy of optical-mechanical structure and pitching shaft. Compared with the classic roTo meet the requirements of the micro-miniature air-to-air missile and solve the problem of not reaching full field angle, this paper presents a micro-miniature infrared seeker with roll-pitch structure, applying the integration philosophy of optical-mechanical structure and pitching shaft. Compared with the classic roll-pitch frame, this new structure combines two individual pitch shafts; additionally, the optical-mechanical structureusesonly one mechanical part, thus greatly reducing its size. Moreover, this new structure has a focus function that could improve the image quality. After structure design, we conducted thermo-mechanical coupling analysis on structure parts and lens under eight extreme conditions. The results show that the optical-mechanical structure meets the requirement of micro-miniature(80 mm), shock resistance (10g), and high low temperature test (-40℃~60℃). The simulated analysis can predict real conditions and has great guiding significance for optical-mechanical structure design..

The optical system has an aperture of 200 mm, a focal length of 200 mm, a relative aperture of 1, a full field angle of 3., and a working wavelength of 10.7-10.9.m. The system uses the membrane diffractive lens as the primary lens, with the thickness of a micron, and has the advantages of large aperture and light weight, which solves the contradiction between the weight and the aperture of the existing infrared optical system. A hybrid refractive diffractive lens with a diffractive surface is used to correct the strong dispersion of the primary lens, effectively solving the problems of small field of view and narrow spectral range of the membrane diffractive primary lens. The use of membrane diffractive primary lens and refractive diffractive hybrid lens effectively utilizes the good athermalization characteristics of the diffractive surface. Combined with the selection of lens materials, it plays a good role in the athermalization of the optical system; the use of the diffractive surface increases the degree of freedom in the process of system design optimization. Membrane diffractive athermal infrared optical system has the advantages of light weight, good imaging quality, and excellent athermalization performance, which has a good application prospect in the field of infrared remote sensing imaging detection..

Real-time Object Tracking Based on Context Awareness and Scale Adaptation
Aiming XIA, and Xuedong WU
Because the traditional kernel correlation filter algorithm for visual object tracking has low tracking accuracy under fast motion, background clutter, and motion blurring conditions and cannot deal with scale changes, a real-time object tracking algorithm based on context awareness and scale adaptation is proposed. BaBecause the traditional kernel correlation filter algorithm for visual object tracking has low tracking accuracy under fast motion, background clutter, and motion blurring conditions and cannot deal with scale changes, a real-time object tracking algorithm based on context awareness and scale adaptation is proposed. Based on the kernel correlation filter algorithm framework, context-aware and scale-adaptive methods are introduced to add background information and handle changes in the scale of the target. First, the target region is sampled using the features of the fusion histogram of oriented gradient (fHOG), color names (CN), and gray, and a two-dimensional translation filter is trained. Then, a scale pyramid is established in the target area and multi-scale sampling is performed using fHOG on the target area. Following this, a one-dimensional scale filter is trained. Finally, the update strategy is improved in the model updating stage. The experimental results of 100 sets of video sequences in the standard OTB-2015 dataset show that the proposed algorithm showed an improvement in the accuracy by 13.9% as compared with the benchmark algorithm (kernel correlation filter, KCF), and the success rate improved by 14.2%, which is superior to that of other comparison-tracking algorithms considered in the experiment. Under the conditions of scale change, motion blur, and fast motion, the proposed algorithm can maintain a high speed with accurate tracking..

Zixuan ZHAO, Jin WU, and Lei ZHU
The backbone of a convolutional neural network global branch, a residual network (ResNet), obtains low-resolution feature maps at side outputs that lack feature representation. The local branch aggregates the feature maps in the global branch, which are not fully learned, resulting in a negative impact on image segmentThe backbone of a convolutional neural network global branch, a residual network (ResNet), obtains low-resolution feature maps at side outputs that lack feature representation. The local branch aggregates the feature maps in the global branch, which are not fully learned, resulting in a negative impact on image segmentation. To solve these problems in GLNet (Global-Local Network), a new semantic segmentation network based on GLNet and High-Resolution Network (HRNet) is proposed. First, we replaced the original backbone of the global branch with HRNet to obtain high-level feature maps with stronger representation. Second, the loss calculation method was modified using a multi-loss function, causing the outputs of the global branch to become more similar to the ground truth. Finally, the local branch was trained independently to eliminate the confusion produced by the global branch. The improved network was trained and tested on the remote sensing image dataset. The results show that the mean absolute errors of the global and local branches are 0.0630 and 0.0479, respectively, and the improved network outperforms GLNet in terms of segmentation accuracy and mean absolute errors..

The proposed algorithm utilizes the Otsu and fast fireworks algorithm (FFWA) to automatically set the high and low detection thresholds and the connecting edges. Consequently, the explosion radius, the production method, and selection strategy are improved as compared to those of the traditional fireworks algorithm, thereby increasing the speed and accuracy of the Otsu calculation. The experimental results show that the calculation speed of the fast fireworks algorithm increased by 36% as compared to that of the traditional fireworks algorithm. Moreover, the stability also increased considerably. The improved adaptive Canny algorithm not only maintains the same precision but also decreases the calculation time by 49%.

Zhishe WANG, Xiaolin JIANG, Yuanyuan WU, and Junyao WANG
In the traditional image fusion method based on sparse representation, image blocks are used as units for dictionary training and sparse decomposition. The representation ability of dictionary atoms for image features is insufficient if the internal connection between the image blocks is not considered. Moreover, the sIn the traditional image fusion method based on sparse representation, image blocks are used as units for dictionary training and sparse decomposition. The representation ability of dictionary atoms for image features is insufficient if the internal connection between the image blocks is not considered. Moreover, the sparse coefficients are inaccurate. Therefore, a fused image is not desirable. In view of the abovementioned problem, this paper proposes a fusion method based on the group K-means singular value decomposition (K-SVD) for visible and infrared images. Considering the image non-local similarity, this method constructs a structure group matrix using similar image blocks, and then, dictionary training and sparse decomposition are performed in the units of the structure group matrix by group K-SVD. Thus, this method can effectively improve the representation ability of dictionary atoms and the accuracy of the sparse coefficients. The experimental results show that this method is superior to the traditional sparse fusion method in terms of subjective and objective evaluation..

We propose a high-temperature pipeline defect detection and extraction method baseIn this study, we consider the complex background and high interference that adversely affect infrared images of high-temperature pipelines in power plants and the requirements of image processing algorithms for inspection robot systems. We propose a high-temperature pipeline defect detection and extraction method based on an improved two-dimensional Otsu and region growth algorithms. After grayscale conversion, a 2D Otsu method was used to extract the pipeline area. Based on the grayscale histogram of the pipeline region and the average gray value of the neighborhood, automatic detection and positioning of multiple sub-points were realized. The segmentation of the defect area was accomplished using two methods. The adaptive threshold was determined based on the gray mean and standard deviation values of the growth area, while the growth criterion was improved using the gradient amplitude of the Prewitt operator. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can not only realize the automatic detection and positioning of various defects in high-temperature pipelines of power plants, but it additionally segments the defect regions more accurately with high accuracy and good real-time performance..
