Zhongkai Chen, Xiaorun Li, and Liaoying Zhao
Aiming at the inversion of suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentration using hyperspectral data, this paper proposes a supervised band selection method based on pre-trained neural networks (PNNs), and employs the random forest and neural network to establish an inversion model of SPM concentration. The PNN method Aiming at the inversion of suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentration using hyperspectral data, this paper proposes a supervised band selection method based on pre-trained neural networks (PNNs), and employs the random forest and neural network to establish an inversion model of SPM concentration. The PNN method needs to perform multiple repeated experiments to obtain sufficient and low-noise expression of band importance. In each experiment, an appropriate number of bands is selected as the features of input data of neural networks. Then, we train a neural network and obtain weights of the first layer in the last training epoch. Finally, we use the L1 norm, L2 norm, and ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit) function of the weights to represent the importance of the bands. The experiment results show that the PNN method using L1 norm and L2 norm can obtain a more informative band set, and perform better when used for SPM concentration inversion..

In order to extract the target information accurately, we propose a high-resolution remote sensing image scene classification method based on salient features combined with deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) to solve the problems of complex background, diverse targets, and difficult to distinguish between target information and background information in the classification of high-scoring remote sensing image scenes. First, K-means clustering algorithm and super-pixel segmentation algorithm are used to generate the color spatial distribution map and color contrast map of the image, and the different contrast maps are fused to get the saliency map. Then, the features in the saliency map are enhanced through logarithmic transformation, and the adaptive threshold segmentation method is used to improve the discrimination of the target and divide the target area and the background area, and extract the area of interest. Finally, a DCNN model is constructed to extract deep semantic features and classification, and the obtained features are input into the network model for training and classification. Experimental results show that the method can effectively distinguish the main target information from the background information and reduce the interference of irrelevant information. The classification accuracy of the method on the UC-Merced data set and WHU-RS data set are 96.10% and 95.84%, respectively..

Yu Deng, Qiang Fu, Su Zhang, Changli Li, Juntong Zhan, and Yingchao Li

The effects of observation zenith angle and solar zenith angle on the polarization of sea surface targets under the background of the solar flare and the contrast between sea surface targets and solar flare background are analyzed. The results show that when detecting sea surface targets in sunny weather, the background radiation is mainly affected by the irradiance caused by the direct reflection of solar radiation from the sea surface. There is no significant difference between the visible light wavelengths of 550 nm and 670 nm in the inhibition effect of solar flare. The inhibition effect of solar flare is better when the observation zenith angle is near 53°, 50°--60° solar zenith angle direction and the sum of solar zenith angle and observation zenith angle is about 106°. This research is of great significance to improve the contrast between the sea surface target and the solar flare background image and the target detection effect under the sea surface solar flare background..

Hailin Wang, Zhenghao Han, Li Li, Su Qiu, and Weiqi Jin
RGBW filter arrays are often used to improve the imaging quality of detectors at low illuminance, but the corresponding color reconstruction methods are still designed according to the characteristics of Bayer array, and do not make full use of the advantages of luminance information, resulting in poor reconstruction rRGBW filter arrays are often used to improve the imaging quality of detectors at low illuminance, but the corresponding color reconstruction methods are still designed according to the characteristics of Bayer array, and do not make full use of the advantages of luminance information, resulting in poor reconstruction results. To overcome this defect, guided filtering is applied to delve the correlation between luminance information and color information first. Then, multi-step residual-based interpolation algorithm with increasing sampling rate is designed, based on the smoothness of residual, which is applied to the spatial characteristics of the SONY-RGBW color filter array. Moreover, combined with the interpolation results in the orthogonal directions, the iterative process is introduced and the pixel-wise evaluation factor is improved to improve the edge adaptability of the algorithm. Finally, the high-frequency component of the luminance image is used to enhance the color image. Experimental results on the Kodak data set and images in real scenes show that the proposed method can reduce color aliasing, reconstruct clear image detail, and the objective criteria with or without reference images are better than the existing color reconstruction methods for RGBW color filter array..

In order to filter out the noise in the ultrasonic echo signal, a signal denoising method based on the optimized variational modal decomposition (VMD) algorithm is proposed. Firstly, the information entropy of the mutual information criterion is used to associate the genetic algorithm with VMD. Then, the sample entropy is used as the fitness function to adaptively optimize the parameter combination in VMD algorithm. Finally, the original signal is decomposed, the effective signal is calculated through the correlation coefficient, and the effective signal is reconstructed after further denoising. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively filter out the noise in ultrasonic echo signal and retain the useful signal completely..

First, the principal component analysis method is used to estimate the normal vector of each point on a larger scale, and the double tensor voting is performed on each point to extract the feature points. Then, the normal vectors of the extracted feature points are estimated at a smaller scale, and the small-scale noise plane is eliminated by combining the random sample consensus method. Finally, the curvature is used to filter the remaining noise to obtain the final point cloud data. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively eliminate noise points, and better retain the sharp features of the 3D model, which lays the foundation for subsequent point cloud registration and 3D reconstruction..

However, even after decades of related research and development, restoring the 3D shape of objects using a single fringe pattern remains a challenge. In recent years, deep learning methods have been used increasingly in computer vision and image processing tasks. Thus, this paper proposes a structured light 3D measurement method based on the U-Net network. The proposed method obtains the depth information of the target object’s surface directly from a single deformed fringe pattern to realize high-speed 3D shape measurement. Simulated and experimental data prove the effectiveness of the proposed method. With the proposed method, 3D data can be calculated from a single deformed fringe pattern; thus, it can be applied to the 3D shape measurement of dynamic objects..

U-Net is an end-to-end image semantic segmentation network with a typical encoder-decoder architecture. Among them, the coding part mainly comprises a convolutional layer and a pooling layer, which can effectively extract the features of a target image; however, extracting information such as the target position and direction is difficult. Capsule network is a type of neural network that can obtain the target pose (position, size, and direction) and other information. Therefore, this study proposes an SAR image semantic segmentation method based on the U-Net and capsule network. Moreover, considering the small data set of SAR images, the U-Net encoder is designed to be identical to the visual geometry group (VGG16) to allow the trained VGG16 model to be directly transferred to the encoder. The effectiveness of the method is verified by conducting a segmentation experiment of building targets on two polarimetric SAR image data sets. Results show that the method can achieve improved precision, recall, F1-score, and intersection over union as well as reduce the training time of the network model when compared with the U-Net..

Deep learning-based single-image super-resolution reconstruction method has been relatively perfect. The reconstructed image has a high objective evaluation value or a good visual effect; however, the image perception effect and objective evaluation value cannot be improved in a balanced manner. To address this problemDeep learning-based single-image super-resolution reconstruction method has been relatively perfect. The reconstructed image has a high objective evaluation value or a good visual effect; however, the image perception effect and objective evaluation value cannot be improved in a balanced manner. To address this problem, this paper proposes a single-image super-resolution reconstruction method based on an attention fusion generative adversarial network. In the proposed method, first, the batch layer that destroys the original image contrast information and affects the quality of image generation in the residual network is removed. Then, the residual block of the attention convolutional neural network, which can effectively perform adaptive feature refinement in the feature map, is constructed. To improve the reconstruction results that lack high-frequency information and texture details under large-scale factors, a pixel-loss function is constructed to replace the mean squared error-loss function with a more robust Charbonnier loss function, and a total variation regular term is used to smooth the training results. The experimental results show that compared with other methods on the Set5, Set14, Urban100, and BSDS100 test sets under 4× magnification factor, the average peak signal-to-noise ratio and average structure similarity increased by 2.88 dB and 0.078, respectively. The experimental data and renderings demonstrate that the proposed method is subjectively rich in details, objectively has a high peak signal-to-noise ratio and structural similarity value, and achieves a balanced improvement of visual effects and objective evaluation index values..

Based on the analysis of the essence of the line intercept histogram algorithm, a directional fuzzy derivative Otsu method is proposed to segment the weak light part of the image. At the same time, in order to enhance algorithm universality, the segmentation results are fused with segmentation results of the traditional Otsu algorithm. Firstly, the directional fuzzy derivatives are used to replace the neighborhood mean of the pixel to achieve a good performance in segmentation of the weak-light part of the image and suppress noise. Then the segmentation results are fused with the Otsu segmentation results to get more accurate threshold segmentation results. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can segment the weak-light part of the image more accurately in comparison with other segmentation methods, which provides better noise reduction effects..

First, the feature points of the carrier image based on SURF algorithm were extracted and feature point information was saved as a key for blind detection. In the copyright verification process, after the feature points of the attacked image were extracted and keys were matched, the geometric correction of the attacked image was implemented based on affine matrix estimated by filtered feature points. Simultaneously, the copyright identification was preprocessed according to the halftone principle. The color image was represented by a three-channel binary matrix with pixel expansion, and the watermark image was encrypted by halftone sub-block mapping according to the encryption rules. In proposed algorithm, the color and structure information of the copyright images were retained while the amount of embedded information was reduced, and the security of the watermark information was increased. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed zero-watermark algorithm is robust against geometric and nongeometric attacks and the generated zero-watermark information is more secure..

To solve this problem, our study proposes an image fusion method based on multiscale Retinex theory and wavelet transform to restore foggy images. First, the MSR algorithm was used to enhance the collected foggy image. Then, the “db5” wavelet basis was used to merge the brightness component V of the foggy image and the enhanced image, and the saturation component of the foggy image was constrained. Finally, the defogging image was generated. The threshold value was set, and the fog image with relatively high fog concentration was second iteratively fused using wavelet transform to remove residual fog. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively restore foggy images with different concentrations. Moreover, the image after fog removal can enhance the details of the dark area, improve the image color, and enrich the image information. Using wavelet fusion preserves more image information so that the image color is rich and natural. Thus, the entire smooth fusion image has a good restoration effect..

This paper proposes a person ReID method based on double-resolution feature and channel attention In person re-identification (ReID) task, some information will be lost in the process of extracting identity-related features, causing the basis for identification become to less and then affects the performance of model. This paper proposes a person ReID method based on double-resolution feature and channel attention mechanism. Firstly, a high-resolution feature branch is added on ResNet, and generate feature vectors corresponding to eight different regions by applying pooling layer on different resolution feature maps. Then a channel attention module is designed based on the situation of feature vectors to enhance the expressive ability of the effective part. Finally, batch normalization is used to coordinate classification loss and measurement loss. In the ablation experiment, the application of each step in the algorithm effectively improves the performance of the model. In the comparative experiments on Market-1501, DUKEMTMC-REID, and CUHK03 datasets, the mean average precision and rank-1 of the proposed algorithm are evidently improved than that of other recent representative algorithms. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can improve the accuracy of person ReID by combining more abundant features..

A crowd density estimation method with multi-feature information fusion is proposed to address the problems of large difference in viewpoint change of two-dimensional images, loss of feature spatial information, and difficulties in scale feature and crowd feature extraction. The proposed method encodes the multi-view information of images through the attention mechanism-guided perspective of spatial attention (PSA) method to obtain the spatial global contextual information of the feature map and weaken the influence of viewpoint change. Through the multi-scale information aggregation (MSIA) method, the multi-scale asymmetric convolution and the null convolution with different expansion rates are effectively integrated to obtain more comprehensive image scale and feature information. Finally, the spatial information of the high-level feature map and the semantic information of the low-level feature map are complemented by the detailed semantic feature embedding fusion, and the contextual information and scale information complement each other to improve the accuracy and robustness of the model. The experimental validation is carried out using the ShanghaiTech, Mall, and Worldexpo’10 datasets, and the experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method has been improved compared with those of other comparative methods..

The aperture MTF is dThe modulation transfer function (MTF) value of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensors pixels at Nyquist frequency is typically used to evaluate the imaging quality. The MTF is mainly calculated by taking the frequency domain product of the aperture MTF and the diffusion MTF. The aperture MTF is determined by the physical structure of the CMOS image sensor pixel, whereas the diffusion MTF is determined primarily by the process parameters of the p-n junction in the photosensitive region. Simultaneously, the process parameters will affect the quantum efficiency (QE) of pixels, which will then affect the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The theoretical mechanism of MTF function and SNR is examined in detail in this paper, and the calculation results of MTF and SNR of CMOS image sensor pixels under 8 typical optical wavelengths in the 300--1000 nm spectral band are listed. The MTF of the pixel with L-shaped sensitivity aperture at Nyquist frequency is fixed at 0.67, the diffusion MTF at Nyquist frequency decreases as incident light wavelength increases, the peak value of QE is 85.8% at 800-nm incident light wavelength, and the peak value of SNR is 124 at 800 nm under the same reading noise and dark current..

Based on the principle of reconstructing full-parallax light In order to solve the problems of insufficient viewpoints and narrow viewing angle of the traditional autostereoscopic display technology, a light field three-dimensional (3D) display method with super multiple viewpoints and large viewing angle is proposed. Based on the principle of reconstructing full-parallax light field for integral imaging, the discrete lenticular lens array (DLLA) with a large pitch is used in the proposed method to horizontally modulate the light rays, which emit from pixels of the elemental image (EI), with specific horizontal direction angles to integrate viewpoints in space. As a result, super multiple viewpoints densely arranged in the horizontal direction are reconstructed within a large viewing angle. In addition, the DLLA is optimized for optical imaging to suppress aberrations and ensure high-quality 3D imaging. In the experiment, a 54-inch (1 inch=2.54 cm) light-emitting diode (LED) displayer with a resolution of 1280 pixel×720 pixel is used to achieve a horizontal light field 3D display effect with 42.8° viewing angle and 100 viewpoints, and the distortion rate of 3D imaging is 2.23%.

In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a denoising method of heart rate signal based on a self-optimizing normalized least mean square algorithm. According to the trend of light changes in the original heart rate signal and the background signal, this method can automatically select the control factor through the least mean square error based on the normalized least mean square adaptive filter, which can maximize the removal of light interference in the image. Compared with the actual heart rate results using finger clip pulse oximeter, the Person correlation coefficient between the average heart rate measured by the two methods under the condition of drastic changes in light intensity is 0.95, and the mean absolute percentage error is 2.16%. The results indicate that the method greatly improves the anti-noise ability of the imaging photoplethysmographic against ambient light, which improves the practicability, reliability, and stability of the imaging photoplethysmographic measurement method..

The semantic segmentation network of laser cladding cracks based on the U-net nTo improve the time consumption and low accuracy of traditional manual methods of laser cladding crack detection, an automatic identification method combined with the attention model is proposed to identify and detect laser cladding cracks. The semantic segmentation network of laser cladding cracks based on the U-net network cannot sufficiently extract small local features. By adding the convolutional block attention model (CBAM) layer to extract the feature space and feature channel weight information, we can label the microscopic cracks of the laser cladding zone without any time difference in the pixel level. Experimental results show that the deep learning model combined with the CBAM can improve the accuracy of cladding crack identification and detection by 2.7 percentages. The network fused with the CBAM achieves an accuracy of 79.8% on the cladding area crack test set. Both the labeling accuracy and speed of the deep learning model exceed those of manual labeling, providing an effective method for identifying laser cladding cracks..

Aimed at handling the problem of hDue to the limitation of measuring equipment or the shape characteristics of the model itself, the point cloud data in the triangulated grid generated by three-dimensional (3D) laser scanning point cloud often contains holes, which brings obstacles to the subsequent 3D reconstruction. Aimed at handling the problem of hole repairing, a hole surface repairing algorithm based on laser triangulation point cloud is proposed in this paper. First, the boundary of the triangular patch is determined by traversing the triangular mesh for the closed hole, and the hole is detected. Second, a new triangular patch is generated quickly at the hole polygon based on the minimum angle method to form the initial mesh. Third, the least square network and radial basis function implicit surface are combined. Besides, the curvature of the surface is minimized by using the minimum second derivative. The surface newly generated is consistent with the trend of the original mesh curvature. Finally, the hole repairing of laser point cloud is realized. Experimental results show that, compared with other point cloud repair methods, this method not only reduces the repair error, but also is suitable for hole repairing of various triangular mesh models..

Temporal action detection is a fundamental task in video understanding that is commonly used in the fields of human-computer interaction, video surveillance, intelligent security, and other fields. An improved encoder-decoder temporal action detection algorithm based on the convolutional neural network is proposed. TheTemporal action detection is a fundamental task in video understanding that is commonly used in the fields of human-computer interaction, video surveillance, intelligent security, and other fields. An improved encoder-decoder temporal action detection algorithm based on the convolutional neural network is proposed. The improved algorithm is applied in two stages: first, the feature extraction network is replaced and the residual structure network is used to extract the deep features of the video frame; and second, the encoder-decoder temporal convolutional network is constructed. The feature fusion is conducted via contact, and the method of upsampling is improved. To improve the detection accuracy of the network, the proposed algorithm employs the appropriate activation function LReLU for training. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the proposed algorithm on the temporal action detection datasets MERL Shopping and GTEA has improved..

Firstly, the constructed wharf sample data set is enhanced, and the enhanced data set is used to train the YOLO v3 algorithm. Then, the multi-scale recognition is carried out by the sliding window on the large remote sensing images, and the underlying features of the images are obtained to calculate the wharf categories and pixel coordinates. Finally, the locations of wharves are transformed into geographical coordinates, and the Getis-Ord Gi * statistical method is used to analyze the hot spots. The classical density clustering method is used to identify and extract the locations and ranges of ports.

The traditional adaptive Monte Carlo localization (AMCL) algorithm provides low pose accuracy owing to the complex environment limiting the laser model. Herein, an optimized AMCL algorithm of scan matching (SM) and discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is presented. A weighted average output of the traditional AMCL was used as the initial value of the SM, a matching function model of the lidar observation point and previous map was constructed, and the Gauss-Newton method was used to optimize the solution. Finally, the minor jitter at the localization was filtered through the DFT filter, improving the system’s stability and robustness. Through absolute localization experiments and repeated localization experiments in motion, it is verified that the optimization algorithm is superior to the traditional AMCL algorithm. The optimization algorithm effectively improves the system’s localization accuracy while maintaining its robustness..

Herein, we propose a convolutional neural network based on channel attention mechanism for multiscale feature fusion regarding the characteristics of LiDAR point clouds, such as the complex geometric structure and extreme scale variations among different categories, resulting in the issue of low classification accuracyHerein, we propose a convolutional neural network based on channel attention mechanism for multiscale feature fusion regarding the characteristics of LiDAR point clouds, such as the complex geometric structure and extreme scale variations among different categories, resulting in the issue of low classification accuracy of small targets. First, low-level features (planarity, linearity, normal vector, and eigen entropy) are calculated for each point by setting a spherical neighborhood, and they are fused with high-level features acquired by the network to improve the geometry awareness of the constructed model. Then, a multiscale feature fusion module is designed based on the channel attention mechanism to learn fusion weight coefficient so that the network can adapt to the receptive field size of different scale objects and realize different scales information filtering, which improves the classification performance of the small-scale object. According to the experiments, the average F1 score using the ISPRS Vaihingen 3D Semantic Labeling benchmark is 72.2%. Compared with other algorithms, our model has the highest classification accuracy in the powerline and car categories with F1 scores of 64.3% and 79.9%, respectively..

Based on YOLOv3, our algorithm is combined with dense connection network (DenseNet) and uses the dense connection blocks to extract deep features and enhance feature propagation. Meanwhile, Distance-IoU (DIoU) loss is introduced as the loss function of coordinate prediction, making the location of the bounding box more accurate. Besides, aiming at the situation of mutual occlusion between targets, we use DIoU instead of IoU in the improved non-maximum suppression algorithm to overcome the problem of false suppression. The proposed algorithm is tested on three classical remote sensing datasets, and the experimental results show that the detection method in this paper has higher detection accuracy..
