For the shortcomings of poor interpretation ability and instability in neural network training, a Chambolle- Pock (CP) algorithm optimized denoising network based on Total Variational (TV) regularization, CPTV-Net, was proposed to solve the denoising problem of Low-Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT) images. Firstly, the TV constraint term was introduced into the L1 regularization term model to preserve the structural information of the image. Secondly, the CP algorithm was used to solve the denoising model and obtain specific iterative steps to ensure the convergence of the algorithm. Finally, the shallow CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) was used to learn the iterative formula of the primal dual variables of the linear operation. The neural network was used to calculate the solution of the model, and the network parameters were collected to optimize the combined data. The experimental results on simulated and real LDCT datasets show that compared with five advanced denoising methods such as REDCNN (Residual Encoder-Decoder Convolutional Neural Network) and TED-Net (Transformer Encoder-decoder Dilation Network), CPTV-Net has the best Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural SIMilarity (SSIM), and Visual Information Fidelity (VIF) evaluation values, and can generate LDCT images with significant denoising effect and the most details preserved.
To address the difficulties in reconstructing high-frequency information in image super-resolution reconstruction due to the lack of dependency between low-resolution and high-resolution images and the lack of order during the reconstruction of feature map, a single-image super-resolution reconstruction method based on iterative feedback and attention mechanism was proposed. Firstly, high- and low-frequency information in the image was extracted respectively by using frequency decomposition block, and the two kinds of information was processed respectively, so that the network focused on the extracted high-frequency details to increase the restoration ability of the method on image details. Secondly, through the channel-wise attention mechanism, the reconstruction focus was put on the feature channels with effective features to improve the network ability of extracting the feature map information. Thirdly, the iterative feedback idea was adopted to increase quality of the restored image in the process of repeated comparison and reconstruction. Finally, the output image was generated through the reconstruction block. The proposed method shows better performance in comparison with mainstream super-resolution methods in the 2×, 4× and 8× experiments on Set5, Set14, BSD100, Urban100 and Manga109 benchmark datasets. In the 8× experiments on Manga109 dataset, the proposed method improves Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) by about 3.01 dB and 2.32 dB averagely and respectively compared to the traditional interpolation method and the Super-Resolution Convolutional Neural Network (SRCNN). Experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce the errors in the reconstruction process and effectively reconstruct finer high-resolution images.
The existing recommendation method with knowledge graph and privacy protection cannot effectively balance the noise of Differential Privacy (DP) and the performance of recommender system. In order to solve the problem, a News Recommendation method with Knowledge Graph and Privacy protection (KGPNRec) was proposed. Firstly, the multi-channel Knowledge-aware Convolutional Neural Network (KCNN) model was adopted to merge the multi-dimensional feature vectors of news title, entities and entity contexts of knowledge graph to improve the accuracy of recommendation. Secondly, based on the attention mechanism, the noise with different magnitudes was added in the feature vectors according to different sensitivities to reduce the impact of noise on data analysis. Then, the uniform Laplace noise was added to weighted user feature vectors to ensure the security of user data. Finally, the experimental analysis was conducted on real news datasets. Experimental results show that, compared with the baseline methods such as Privacy-Preserving Multi-Task recommendation Framework (PPMTF) and recommendation method based on Deep Knowledge-aware Network (DKN), the proposed KGPNRec can protect user privacy and ensure the prediction performance of method. For example, on the Bing News dataset, the Area Under Curve (AUC) value, accuracy and F1-score of the proposed method are improved by 0.019, 0.034 and 0.034 respectively compared with those of PPMTF.
Users’ social media contains their past personal experiences and potential life patterns, and the study of their patterns is of great value for predicting users’ future behaviors and performing personalized recommendations for users. By collecting Weibo data, 11 types of events were defined, and a three?stage Pipeline system was proposed to detect personal events by using BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) pre?trained models in three stages respectively, including BERT+BiLSTM+Attention, BERT+FullConnect and BERT+BiLSTM+CRF. The information of whether the text contained defined events, the event types of events contained, and the elements contained in each event were extracted from the Weibo, and the specific elements are Subject (subject of the event), Object (event element), Time (event occurrence time), Place (place where the event occurred) and Tense (tense of the event), thereby exploring the change law of user’s personal event timeline to predict personal events. Comparative experiments and analysis were conducted with classification algorithms such as logistic regression, naive Bayes, random forest and decision tree on a collected real user Weibo dataset. Experimental results show that the BERT+BiLSTM+Attention, BERT+FullConnect, BERT+BiLSTM+CRF methods used in three stages achieve the highest F1?score, verifying the effectiveness of the proposed methods. Finally, the personal event timeline was visually built according to the extracted events with time information.
Imbalanced data classification is an important research content in machine learning, but most of the existing imbalanced data classification algorithms foucus on binary classification, and there are relatively few studies on imbalanced multi?class classification. However, datasets in practical applications usually have multiple classes and imbalanced data distribution, and the diversity of classes further increases the difficulty of imbalanced data classification, so the multi?class classification problem has become a research topic to be solved urgently. The imbalanced multi?class classification algorithms proposed in recent years were reviewed. According to whether the decomposition strategy was adopted, imbalanced multi?class classification algorithms were divided into decomposition methods and ad?hoc methods. Furthermore, according to the different adopted decomposition strategies, the decomposition methods were divided into two frameworks: One Vs. One (OVO) and One Vs. All (OVA). And according to different used technologies, the ad?hoc methods were divided into data?level methods, algorithm?level methods, cost?sensitive methods, ensemble methods and deep network?based methods. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods and their representative algorithms were systematically described, the evaluation indicators of imbalanced multi?class classification methods were summarized, the performance of the representative methods were deeply analyzed through experiments, and the future development directions of imbalanced multi?class classification were discussed.
Before an emergency occurs, the hospitals need to maintain a certain amount of emergency resource redundancy. Aiming at the problem of configuration optimization of hospital emergency resource redundancy under emergencies, firstly, based on the utility theory, by analyzing the utility performance of the hospital emergency resource redundancy, the emergency resource redundancy was defined and classified, and the utility function conforming to the marginal law was determined. Secondly, the redundancy configuration model of hospital emergency resources with maximal total utility was established, and the upper limit of emergency resource storage and the lower limit of emergency rationality were given as the constraints of the model. Finally, the combination of particle swarm optimization and sequential quadratic programming method was used to solve the model. Through case analysis, four optimization schemes for the emergency resource redundancy of the hospital were obtained, and the demand degree of the hospital emergency level to the hospital emergency resource redundancy was summarized. The research shows that with the emergency resource redundancy configuration optimization model, the emergency rescue of hospitals under emergencies can be carried out well, and the utilization efficiency of hospital emergency resources can be improved.
The existing gesture recognition algorithms perform inefficiently on the embedded devices for their high complexity. A shape feature-based algorithm with major fixed-point arithmetic was proposed, which used the most significant internal circle algorithm and the circle cutting algorithm to obtain the features. This method could extract the center of a palm by finding the largest circle inside the palm, and could extract the finger tips by drawing circles at the edge of the hand. Finally gestures could be classified and recognized according to the feature information of the number of fingers, orientation and the position of the palm. This algorithm had been transplanted to Digital Signal Processor (DSP) by improving it. The experimental results show that the proposed method can adapt to different hands of different people and it is ideal for DSP. Compared with other shape-based algorithms, the average recognition rate has increased from 1.6%~8.6%, and the speed of the computer processing has increased by 2% by using this algorithm. Therefore, the proposed method facilitates the implementation of embedded gesture recognition systems and lays the foundation for the embedded gesture recognition system.
Resampling is a typical operation in image forgery, since most of the existing resampling tampering detection algorithms for JPEG images are not so powerful and inefficient in estimating the zoom factor accurately, an image resampling detection algorithm via further resampling was proposed. First, a JPEG compressed image was resampled again with a scaling factor less than 1, to reduce the effects of JPEG compression in image file saving. Then the cyclical property of the second derivative of a resampled signal was adopted for resampling operation detection. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is robust to JPEG compression, and in this manner, the real zoom factor may be accurately estimated and thus useful for resampling operation detection when a synthesized image is formed from resampled original images with different scaling factors.
Concerning the low correct recognition rate of the Electromyography (EMG) control system, a new Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) system based on Electrooculogram (EOG) assisted EMG was designed and implemented. The feature vectors of EOG and EMG were extracted by threshold method and improved wavelet transform separately, and the feature vectors were integrated together. Then the features were classified by multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM), and the different control commands were generated according to the result of pattern recognition. The experimental results prove that, compared with the single EMG control system, the new system has better operability and stability with higher correct recognition rate.
