Aiming at the problem of inaccurate matching of weak texture and pure color region in stereo matching and long time consumption of image segmentation algorithms, a stereo matching algorithm fused with image segmentation was proposed. Firstly, the initial image was filtered by Gaussian and smoothed by Sobel to obtain the edge feature map of the image. Secondly, the red, green and blue channel values of the original image were dichotomized by using the Otsu method and then refused to obtain the segmentation template map. Finally, the obtained grayscale map, edge feature map and segmentation template map were applied in the parallax calculation and parallax optimization process in order to calculate the parallax map. The proposed algorithm has the accuracy improved by 14.23 percentage points on average with the time cost per 10 000 pixels increased by 7.16 ms in comparison with Sum of Absolute Differences (SAD) algorithm. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain smoother matching results in pure color and weak texture regions and parallax discontinuity regions, and it can automatically calculate the threshold and segment the image faster.
Aiming at the problem of noise residual in Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) speech enhancement algorithm in low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) unsteady environment, a Perceptual Masking-based reconstructed NMF (PM-RNMF) single-channel speech enhancement algorithm was proposed. Firstly, psychoacoustic masking features were applied to NMF speech enhancement algorithms. Secondly, different masking thresholds were used for different frequencies to establish an adaptive perceptual masking gain function, and the residual noise energy and speech distortion energy were constrained by the thresholds. Finally, Speech Presence Probability (SPP) was combined to realize perceptual gain correction, the NMF algorithm was reconstructed and a new objective function was established. The simulation results show that under three kinds of unsteady noise environments with different SNR, the average Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ) of PM-RNMF algorithm is improved by 0.767, 0.474 and 0.162 respectively and the average Signal-to-Distortion Ratio (SDR) is increased by 2.785, 1.197 and 0.948 respectively compared with NMF, RNMF (Reconstructive NMF) and PM-DNN (Perceptual Masking-Deep Neural Network) algorithms. Experimental results show that PM-RNMF has better noise reduction effect in both low frequency and high frequency.
Considering the road network constraint and the uncertainty of moving object location, a new reverse-kNN query on road network termed Probabilistic Bichromatic Reverse-kNN (PBRkNN) was proposed to find a set of uncertain points and make the probability which the kNN of each uncertain point contains the given query point be greater than a specified threshold. Firstly, a basic algorithm called Probabilistic Eager (PE) was proposed, which used Dijkstra algorithm for pruning. Then, the Pre-compute Probabilistic Eager (PPE) algorithm which pre-computes the kNN for each point was proposed to improve the query efficiency. In addition, for further improving the query efficiency, the Pre-compute Probabilistic Eager External (PPEE) algorithm which used grid index to accelerate range query was proposed. The experimental results on the road networks of Beijing and California show that the proposed pre-computation strategies can help to efficiently process probabilistic bichromatic reverse-kNN queries on road networks.
The Coding Unit (CU) size in High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is more times than that in previous coding standards, so the error concealment in HEVC has a poor result in video decoding when packet loss occurs. An error concealment method based on block-merging of segmentation block under CU was proposed. Firstly, the correlation between residual energy and block segmentation was analyzed. Secondly, the reference frame residual energy was compared with a set threshold, and the lost CU segmentation block was merged based on the comparison information. Then, the vector extrapolation method was optimized by weights to ensure the applicability of the proposed algorithm in HEVC error concealment. Finally, the optimized vector extrapolation method was used for error concealment of merged block. The experimental results show that,compared with the classic error concealment methods such as the methods of copy, motion compensation, the proposed method guarantees the Structural Similarity Index Measurement (SSIM) of decoded video and improves the Peak Signal-To-Noise Ratio (PSNR) of decoded video in different motility, and the feasibility of the proposed algorithm is verified.
Concering that the traditional access control methods fail to support dynamic authorization and file evaluation, and suffer from malicious re-sharing issue, an Access Control Mechanism with Dynamic Authorization and File Evaluation (DAFE-AC) was proposed. DAFE-AC adopted a dynamic authorization mechanism to monitor authorized users in real-time and allowed users to supervise each other. The file evaluation mechanism in DAFE-AC could dynamically update the access threshold of files. Based on the Hash/index database, DAFE-AC can ensure the uniqueness of files in the system. In DAFE-AC, a user' authorization value can dynamically change with behaviors of other users, and users can perform file evaluation to eliminate malicious re-sharing of files.
