Aiming at the problem of insufficient representation ability of features extracted by the existing vehicle re-identification methods based on convolution Neural Network (CNN), a vehicle re-identification method based on the combination of wavelet features and attention mechanism was proposed. Firstly, the single-layer wavelet module was embedded in the convolution module to replace the pooling layer for subsampling, thereby reducing the loss of fine-grained features. Secondly, a new local attention module named Feature Extraction Module (FEM) was put forward by combining Channel Attention (CA) mechanism and Pixel Attention (PA) mechanism, which was embedded into CNN to weight and strengthen the key information. Comparison experiments with the benchmark residual convolutional network ResNet-50 and ResNet-101 were conducted on VeRi dataset. Experimental results show that increasing the number of wavelet decomposition layers in ResNet-50 can improve mean Average Precision (mAP). In the ablation experiment, although ResNet-50+Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) has the mAP reduced by 0.25 percentage points compared with ResNet-101, it has the number of parameters and computational complexity lower than those of ResNet-101, and has the mAP, Rank-1 and Rank-5 higher than those of ResNet-50 without DWT, verifying that the proposed model can effectively improve the accuracy of vehicle retrieval in vehicle re-identification.

Aiming at the problem that the nearest neighbor parameters need to be set manually in density peak clustering algorithm based on shared nearest neighbor, a density peak clustering algorithm based on adaptive nearest neighbor parameters was proposed. Firstly, the proposed nearest neighbor parameter search algorithm was used to automatically obtain the nearest neighbor parameters. Then, the clustering centers were selected through the decision diagram. Finally, according to the proposed allocation strategy of representative points, all sample points were clustered through allocating the representative points and the non-representative points sequentially. The clustering results of the proposed algorithm was compared with those of the six algorithms such as Shared-Nearest-Neighbor-based Clustering by fast search and find of Density Peaks (SNN?DPC), Clustering by fast search and find of Density Peaks (DPC), Affinity Propagation (AP), Ordering Points To Identify the Clustering Structure (OPTICS), Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN), and K-means on the synthetic datasets and UCI datasets. Experimental results show that, the proposed algorithm is better than the other six algorithms on the evaluation indicators such as Adjusted Mutual Information (AMI), Adjusted Rand Index (ARI) and Fowlkes and Mallows Index (FMI). The proposed algorithm can automatically obtain the effective nearest neighbor parameters, and can better allocate the sample points in the edge region of the cluster.

Journal of Computer Applications    2022, 42 (4): 1148-1154.   DOI: 10.11772/j.issn.1001-9081.2021071271

Aiming at the problem of big clustering error of the Sparse Subspace Clustering (SSC) methods, an SSC method based on random blocking was proposed. First, the original problem dataset was divided into several subsets randomly to construct several sub-problems. Then, after obtaining the coefficient matrices of several sub-problems by the sparse subspace Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) respectively, these coefficient matrices were expanded into coefficient matrices of the same size as the original problem and integrated into a coefficient matrix. Finally, a similarity matrix was calculated according to the coefficient matrix obtained by the integration, and the clustering result of the original problem was obtained by using the Spectral Clustering (SC) algorithm. The SSC method based on random blocking has the subspace clustering error reduced by 3.12 percentage points on average compared with the optional algorithm among SSC, Stochastic Sparse Subspace Clustering via Orthogonal Matching Pursuit with Consensus (S3COMP-C), scalable Sparse Subspace Clustering by Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (SSCOMP), SC and K-Means algorithms, and has all the mutual information, Rand index and entropy significantly better than comparison algorithms. Experimental results show that the SSC method based on random blocking can significantly reduce subspace clustering error, and improve the clustering performance.
