Spectral radiance reconstruction from trichromatic camera responses based on orthogonal test and regularized algorithm

Reconstruction of spectral information based on multi‐channel image system is a significant problem in color reproduction, detection, and recognition. A spectral radiance reconstruction from trichromatic digital camera responses is researched in this article. The mapping relationship between the trichromatic imaging system response and the incident spectral radiance is analyzed. Then, in order to remove the ill‐posedness of the problem, a regularized constraint solution model of spectral radiance reconstruction matrix is established. And the spectral radiance can be reconstructed by spectral radiance reconstruction matrices and trichromatic imaging system response. Finally, the spectral radiance reconstruction matrix is estimated by the system radiometric calibration experiment. The input radiance is offered by a LCD display. A 3‐factor and 9‐level orthogonal test is designed for the calibration experiment, and a test set of 24 colors is used for precision analysis. The results show that the average relative mean error of our method is 8.69%, it is lower than that of Wiener filtering method by 2.84%. The method can reconstruct spectral radiance information effectively.     

基于VMD和改进TCN的短期光伏发电功率预测

光伏发电功率存在波动性,且光伏出力易受各种气象特征影响,传统TCN网络容易过度强化空间特性而弱化个体特性。针对上述问题,文中提出一种基于VMD和改进TCN的短期光伏发电功率预测模型。通过VMD将原始光伏发电功率时间序列分解为若干不同频率的模态分量,将各个模态分量以及相对应的气象数据输入至改进TCN网络进行建模学习。利用中心频率法确定VMD的最优分解模态分解个数。在传统TCN预测模型的基础上,使用DropBlock正则化取代Dropout正则化以达到抑制卷积层中信息协同的效果,并引入注意力机制自主挖掘并突出关键气象输入特征的影响,量化各气象因素对光伏发电的影响,从而提高预测精度。以江苏省某光伏电站真实数据为例进行仿真实验,结果表明所提预测方法的RMSE为0.62 MW,MAPE为2.03%。     

Optimization and regularization of complex task decomposition for blind removal of multi-factor degradation

Most existing image restoration methods based on deep neural networks are developed for images which only degraded by a single degradation mode and imaging under an ideal condition. They cannot be directly used to restore the images degraded by multi-factor coupling. A complex task decomposition regularization optimization strategy (TDROS) is proposed to solve the problem. The restoration of images degraded by multi-factor coupling is a complex task that can be solved by separating these multiple factors, that is, breaking the complex task into numbers of simpler tasks to make the entire complex problem be overcome more easily. Motivated by this idea, the TDROS decomposes the complex task of image restoration into two sub-task: the potential task constrained by regularization and the main task for reconstructing high-definition images. In TDROS, the front of the neural network is focused on the restoration of images degraded by additive noise, while the other part of the network is focused mainly on the restoration of images degraded by blur. We applied the TDROS to an 11-layer convolutional neural network (CNN) and compared it with initial CNNs from the aspects of restoration accuracy and generalization ability. Based on these results, we used TDROS to design a novel network model for the restoration of atmospheric turbulence-degraded images. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed TDROS can improve the generalization ability of the existing network more effectively than current popular methods, offering a better solution for the problem of severely degraded image restoration. Moreover, the TDROS concept provides a flexible framework for low-level visual complex tasks and can be easily incorporated into existing CNNs.     

A new linearly constrained minimum variance beamformer for reconstructing EEG sparse sources

Brain source imaging based on EEG aims to reconstruct the neural activities producing the scalp potentials. This includes solving the forward and inverse problems. The aim of the inverse problem is to estimate the activity of the brain sources based on the measured data and leadfield matrix computed in the forward step. Spatial filtering, also known as beamforming, is an inverse method that reconstructs the time course of the source at a particular location by weighting and linearly combining the sensor data. In this paper, we considered a temporal assumption related to the time course of the source, namely sparsity, in the Linearly Constrained Minimum Variance (LCMV) beamformer. This assumption sounds reasonable since not all brain sources are active all the time such as epileptic spikes and also some experimental protocols such as electrical stimulations of a peripheral nerve can be sparse in time. Developing the sparse beamformer is done by incorporating L1-norm regularization of the beamformer output in the relevant cost function while obtaining the filter weights. We called this new beamformer SParse LCMV (SP-LCMV). We compared the performance of the SP-LCMV with that of LCMV for both superficial and deep sources with different amplitudes using synthetic EEG signals. Also, we compared them in localization and reconstruction of sources underlying electric median nerve stimulation. Results show that the proposed sparse beamformer can enhance reconstruction of sparse sources especially in the case of sources with high amplitude spikes.     

New approach to identify the initial condition in degenerate hyperbolic equation

This paper deals with the determination of an initial condition in degenerate hyperbolic equation from final observations. With the aim of reducing the execution time, this inverse problem is solved using an approach based on double regularization: a Tikhonov’s regularization and regularization in equation by viscose-elasticity. So, we obtain a sequence of weak solutions of degenerate linear viscose-elastic problems. Firstly, we prove the existence and uniqueness of each term of this sequence. Secondly, we prove the convergence of this sequence to the weak solution of the initial problem. Also we present some numerical experiments to show the performance of this approach.

Gas emission source term estimation with 1-step nonlinear partial swarm optimization-Tikhonov regularization hybrid method

Source term identification is very important for the contaminant gas emission event.Thus,it is necessary to study the source parameter estimation method with high computation efficiency,high estimation accuracy and reasonable confidence interval.Tikhonov regularization method is a potential good tool to identify the source parameters.However,it is invalid for nonlinear inverse problem like gas emission process.2-step nonlinear and linear PSO (partial swarm optimization)-Tikhonov regularization method proposed previously have estimated the emission source parameters successfully.But there are still some problems in computation efficiency and confidence interval.Hence,a new 1-step nonlinear method combined Tikhonov regularization and PSO algorithm with nonlinear forward dispersion model was proposed.First,the method was tested with simulation and experiment cases.The test results showed that 1-step nonlinear hybrid method is able to estimate multiple source parameters with reasonable confidence interval.Then,the estimation performances of different methods were compared with different cases.The estimation values with 1-step nonlinear method were close to that with 2-step nonlinear and linear PSO-Tikhonov regularization method.1-step nonlinear method even performs better than other two methods in some cases,especially for source strength and downwind distance estimation.Compared with 2-step nonlinear method,1-step method has higher computation efficiency.On the other hand,the confidence intervals with the method proposed in this paper seem more reasonable than that with other two methods.Finally,single PSO algorithm was compared with 1-step nonlinear PSO-Tikhonov hybrid regularization method.The results showed that the skill scores of 1-step nonlinear hybrid method to estimate source parameters were close to that of single PSO method and even better in some cases.One more important property of 1-step nonlinear PSO-Tikhonov regularization method is its reasonable confidence interval,which is not obtained by single PSO algorithm.Therefore,1-step nonlinear hybrid regularization method proposed in this paper is a potential good method to estimate contaminant gas emission source term.
