基于平流矢量场和弥散流改进的几何活动轮廓模型

几何活动轮廓通过水平集演化捕获目标边界,然而传统方法忽略了前景物体涉及的全局运动及局部形变,从本质上限制了轮廓的动态谐调范围。提出一种由隐式流驱动的几何活动轮廓方法,用于分割形变对象的动态轮廓。根据流体力学,对平流及弥散的隐式流进行建模,从而直接引导水平集的更新。根据图像序列之间有限的运动观测,采用具有平滑和稀疏项的回归算法以拟合平流矢量场。然后,引入受空间梯度约束的非均匀弥散方程,将最终叠加的隐式流用于水平集演化。提出的几何活动轮廓方法构成了一个统一的扩展框架,保留了已有模型对轮廓拓扑变化的适应性。对多个场景下的动态轮廓分割实验表明,提出方法能准确地分割具有全局运动及不规则形变的前景目标,且具有收敛速度快、稳定性强的优点。

针对流溪河非点源污染防治较严峻局面,对流溪河非点源负荷进行了研究。2013—2014年,对流溪河干流温泉、牛心岭、人和、河口断面进行了203 d的水质及水量监测。根据监测结果结合水文分割法和平均浓度法对各断面的非点源污染负荷进行了计算,并分析了非点源污染的特点。结果表明:流溪河干流典型断面污染物以NH3-N、TN和TP为主;越往下游,监测断面各指标平均浓度越大,水质越差;上游断面洪水期各主要指标浓度大于枯水期,下游断面则是枯水期各主要指标浓度大于洪水期;监测断面各指标非点源污染负荷占总负荷的比例为44.22%~96.17%,平均为76.99%;从上游往下游,非点源污染物负荷占总负荷的比例在减小;各断面年污染负荷基本上是以洪水期负荷为主,洪水期污染负荷则以非点源污染负荷为主;河口断面污染物年总负荷中,58.74%的TN、67.22%的TP和65.45%的COD来源于非点源污染。非点源污染在流溪河水体污染中占较大比重,对水质影响不容忽视。

Data-driven hair segmentation with isomorphic manifold inference

Hair segmentation is challenging due to the diverse appearance, irregular region boundary and the influence of complex background. To deal with this problem, we propose a novel data-driven method, named Isomorphic Manifold Inference (IMI). The IMI method assumes the coarse probability map and the binary segmentation map as a couple of isomorphic manifolds and tries to learn hair specific priors from manually labeled training images. For an input image, firstly, the method calculates a coarse probability map. Then it exploits regression techniques to obtain the relationship between the coarse probability map of the test image and those of training images. Finally, this relationship, i.e., a coefficient set, is transferred to the binary segmentation maps and a soft segmentation of the test image will be achieved by a linear combination of those binary maps. Further, we employ this soft segmentation as a shape cue and integrate it with color and texture cues into a unified segmentation framework. A better segmentation is achieved by the Graph Cuts optimization. Extensive experiments are conducted to validate effectiveness of the IMI method, compare contributions of different cues and investigate the generalization of IMI method. The results strongly encourage our method.     

Automatic moment segmentation and peak detection analysis of heart sound pattern via short-time modified Hilbert transform

This paper proposes a novel automatic method for the moment segmentation and peak detection analysis of heart sound (HS) pattern, with special attention to the characteristics of the envelopes of HS and considering the properties of the Hilbert transform (HT). The moment segmentation and peak location are accomplished in two steps. First, by applying the Viola integral waveform method in the time domain, the envelope (E_T) of the HS signal is obtained with an emphasis on the first heart sound (S1) and the second heart sound (S2). Then, based on the characteristics of the E_T and the properties of the HT of the convex and concave functions, a novel method, the short-time modified Hilbert transform (STMHT), is proposed to automatically locate the moment segmentation and peak points for the HS by the zero crossing points of the STMHT. A fast algorithm for calculating the STMHT of E_T can be expressed by multiplying the E_T by an equivalent window (W_E). According to the range of heart beats and based on the numerical experiments and the important parameters of the STMHT, a moving window width of N = 1 s is validated for locating the moment segmentation and peak points for HS. The proposed moment segmentation and peak location procedure method is validated by sounds from Michigan HS database and sounds from clinical heart diseases, such as a ventricular septal defect (VSD), an aortic septal defect (ASD), Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), rheumatic heart disease (RHD), and so on. As a result, for the sounds where S2 can be separated from S1, the average accuracies achieved for the peak of S1 (AP₁), the peak of S2 (AP₂), the moment segmentation points from S1 to S2 (AT₁₂) and the cardiac cycle (ACC) are 98.53%, 98.31% and 98.36% and 97.37%, respectively. For the sounds where S1 cannot be separated from S2, the average accuracies achieved for the peak of S1 and S2 (AP₁₂) and the cardiac cycle ACC are 100% and 96.69%.
