To address the problem that significant performance degradation of Transformer-based object detection methods when facing long-tailed distributions, a collaborative query optimization-based single-stage end-to-end long-tailed object detection framework, named CQ-DETR (Collaborative Query optimization-based DEtection TRansformer), was proposed. In the framework, a Layer-Adaptive Encoder Fusion (LAEF) module was designed to integrate multi-scale encoder features dynamically, so as to consider both high-level semantics and low-level details; a Feature-aware Query Generation (FQG) module was designed to generate content-aware queries dynamically from image features, thereby enhancing the representation capability of initial content queries for potential objects; a Category-Localization Joint-aware query Selection (CLJS) mechanism was proposed to achieve collaborative optimization of category coverage and localization accuracy. Experimental results indicate that CQ-DETR is superior to RichSem (Rich Semantics) method on the long-tailed object detection benchmark dataset LVIS v1.0, with the Average Precision (AP) and the AP of rare categories (APr) improved by 1.4 and 1.5 percentage points, respectively, verifying the effectiveness of the proposed framework in category-imbalanced scenarios; meanwhile, on the relatively balanced COCO 2017 dataset, compared with DINO (DETR with Improved deNoising anchOr box), CQ-DETR has the AP improved by 1.1 percentage points, verifying the good generalization ability of this framework in general object detection scenarios.
Identifying important features from high-dimensional complex industrial data is crucial for production process anomaly monitoring. Aiming at the problem that the existing feature selection algorithms are difficult to model the complex intrinsic structure of data in the face of noise disturbance, a Multi-view Consistency-driven Robust feature selection method (MCR) was proposed. Firstly, a consistency-guided denoising mechanism with structure preservation was designed, in which multi-view collaborative modeling and inconsistency region detection were used to eliminate local noise disturbance while improving structural fidelity and integrity of the raw data. Then, a joint discriminative and consistency-driven feature fusion module was constructed, where high-quality multi-view embedding representations and a feature weight matrix were learned simultaneously, thereby enhancing the ability to perceive key feature dimensions. Finally, a cooperative sparse regularization-based feature selection strategy was introduced, so as to select the most discriminative and structurally consistent subset of features from the fused embedding space. Without relying on labeled information, this method achieves perception and selection of key feature dimensions through multi-view collaborative modeling and consistency-driven optimization. Extensive experimental results on several public benchmark datasets and a real-world cigarette production dataset demonstrate that MCR outperforms the existing mainstream feature selection methods such as Binary Horse herd Optimization Algorithm (BinHOA) and Improved Binary DJaya Algorithm (IBJA), achieving classification accuracy improvements of 0.23 to 12.15 percentage points on public datasets and 2.22 to 5.00 percentage points on real industrial dataset, validating its robustness and effectiveness in complex scenarios.
To address the issue of low channel estimation accuracy in Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) assisted communication systems, a channel estimation scheme based on Channel Denoising Network (CDN) was proposed, which modeled the channel estimation problem as a channel noise elimination problem. Firstly, traditional algorithms were employed to estimate the received pilot signal preliminarily. Then, the estimated signals were input into the channel estimation network to learn noise features and execute denoising, thereby recovering accurate channel coefficients. Finally, to improve the denoising capability of the network, a Weighted Attention Block (WAB) and a Dilated Convolution Block (DCB) were designed to enhance the network's extraction of dominant noise features, and a multi-scale feature fusion module was designed to prevent the loss of shallow features. Simulation results demonstrate that compared with classical DnCNN (Denoising Convolutional Neural Network) and CDRN (Convolutional neural network-based Deep Residual Network) schemes, the proposed scheme reduces the Normalized Mean Square Error (NMSE) by 2.89 dB and 2.01 dB averagely at different Signal-to-Noise Ratios (SNRs).
An improved method based on Local Binary Pattern (LBP) was proposed to solve the problem that the representing ability of LBP is bad because only the relationship between neighbors and the central pixels are considered while the floating relationship of the gray values in the neighbor region is ignored. Firstly, each neighbor was compared clockwise with its next adjacent neighbor before threshold and an LBP-like code was generated. Secondly, the code was encoded to a decimal number named as Float-LBP (F-LBP). Thirdly, the features extracted by the F-LBP and the basic LBP operators were combined together. The experimental results show that the combination of the F-LBP and the basic LBP operators can improve the retrieval accuracy by extracting more discriminative information while reserving the local micro-texture.
The key to body movement emotion recognition lies in extracting emotional features existed in human body movements. To solve the problems of poor emotional feature learning capability and difficulty in improving emotion recognition accuracy in existing models, a body movement emotion recognition method based on Emotional Latent Space Learning (ELSL) and Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) model was proposed. Firstly, CLIP model was introduced to improve the emotional feature learning capability of the model. Secondly, for the fine-grained multi-label emotion classification task, ELSL method was proposed. By learning discriminative mappings from emotional latent space to various subspaces, the subtle differences between emotion categories and the feature information beneficial to the classification of each emotion category in various emotional subspaces. Experiments were carried out on real-world open scenarios-oriented Body Language Dataset (BoLD) The results demonstrate that the proposed method makes use of the advantages of CLIP model and latent space learning in feature learning effectively, leading to significant performance improvement. In specific, compared to Movement Analysis Network (MANet), the proposed method has a 1.08 percentage points increase in mean Average Precision (mAP) and a 1.32 percentage points improvement in mean Area Under Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (mRA).
