基于改进残差特征蒸馏的轻量级超分辨率网络

基于深度学习的图像超分辨率算法通常采用递归的方式或参数共享的策略来减少网络参数，这将增加网络的深度，使得运行网络花费大量的时间，从而很难将模型部署到现实生活中。为了解决上述问题，本文设计一种轻量级超分辨率网络，对中间特征的关联性及重要性进行学习，且在重建部分结合高分辨率图像的特征信息。首先，引入层间注意力模块，通过考虑层与层之间的相关性，自适应地分配重要层次特征的权重。其次，使用增强重建模块提取高分辨率图像中更精细的特征信息，以此得到更加清晰的重建图片。通过大量的对比实验表明，本文设计的网络与其他轻量级模型相比，有更小的网络参数量，并且在重建精度和视觉效果上都有一定的提升。     

No-Reference Video Quality Assessment using novel hybrid features and two-stage hybrid regression for score level fusion

This paper presents a novel No-Reference Video Quality Assessment (NR-VQA) model that utilizes proposed 3D steerable wavelet transform-based Natural Video Statistics (NVS) features as well as human perceptual features. Additionally, we proposed a novel two-stage regression scheme that significantly improves the overall performance of quality estimation. In the first stage, transform-based NVS and human perceptual features are separately passed through the proposed hybrid regression scheme: Support Vector Regression (SVR) followed by Polynomial curve fitting. The two visual quality scores predicted from the first stage are then used as features for the similar second stage. This predicts the final quality scores of distorted videos by achieving score level fusion. Extensive experiments were conducted using five authentic and four synthetic distortion databases. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms other published state-of-the-art benchmark methods on synthetic distortion databases and is among the top performers on authentic distortion databases.

Measurement of residual stresses in dissimilar friction stir-welded aluminium and copper plates using the contour method

The longitudinal residual stresses in the friction stir-welded plates of 5A06 aluminium and pure copper were determined using the contour method. The results revealed the presence of high tensile and compressive residual stresses on the aluminium and copper sides, respectively. The residual stresses were detected on the weld zone as well as the thermo-mechanically affected zone (TMAZ) of the aluminium plate. In contrast, the compressive residual stresses in the copper plate had a much narrower width along the weld line. Peak tensile stresses up to 240?MPa were found in the TMAZ of the aluminium plate.     

The use of seed texture features for discriminating different cultivars of stored apples

The aim of this study was to identify the textural features of apple seeds with the highest discriminatory power for distinguishing the seeds of different apple cultivars with the use of discriminative classifiers. The seeds of apple cvs. Gala, Jonagold and Idared were scanned with the use of a flatbed scanner, and the acquired images were processed to calculate textural features from color channels: L, a, b, R, G, B, Y, U, V, H, S, I, X, Y and Z. The selected textures were used to develop discriminative models and distinguish the seeds of the examined apple cultivars. The analyses were performed for color spaces and color channels. The seeds of apple cvs. Gala and Idared were discriminated with 100% accuracy in models based on the textures from Lab and YUV color spaces and color channel L for the Naive Bayes, Multilayer Perceptron and Multi Class classifiers. The discriminatory accuracies of the seeds of all analyzed apple cultivars (Gala, Idared and Jonagold) ranged from 72% to 85%. The discriminatory accuracy of the textures selected from Lab color space for the Naive Bayes classifier reached 85%. The seeds of apple cvs. Gala and Jonagold were discriminated with 78–90% accuracy, and the discriminatory accuracy of the textures from Lab color space and color channel b for the Naive Bayes classifier reached 90%. The seeds of apple cvs. Idared and Jonagold were distinguished with 80–94% accuracy. The models based on textures from Lab color space and color channel b for the Naive Bayes classifier were characterized by 94% discriminatory accuracy. The study demonstrated that textural features are useful for discriminating the seeds of different apple cultivars.

显色图像分析技术在水稻叶耳花青甙显色目测分级中的应用

目的基于颜色特征的叶耳花青甙显色分级研究。方法以水稻倒二叶叶耳花青甙显色测试为切入点,在Emgu Cv3.0图像分析软件基础上,对完成图像分割的目标区域提取红绿蓝(red green blue, RGB)、色调饱和度亮度(hue saturation value, HSV)颜色特征,利用SPSS软件对颜色特征和测试分级数据进行相关性、回归等统计分析,建立颜色特征多元回归模型。结果叶耳花青甙显色强度与R(红色)、G(绿色)、B(蓝色)、H(色调)、V(亮度)极显著负相关;所有颜色特征值中,G值与叶耳花青甙显色强度相关性最显著,是一元和多元回归主要自变量; G值建立的一元回归模型中, R~2为0.980;多元回归模型R~2值为0.994。结论回归模型的拟合效果好,用这两个模型均可完成叶耳花青甙显色强度分级。     

水槽中闸门瞬时溃决时上下游水深及流量特性试验研究

鉴于研究水库溃坝时溃坝波传播过程及流量变化规律对大坝安全管理具有十分重要的意义,特做了30组工况下的平底无阻力矩形水槽瞬时溃坝模型试验。结果表明,瞬时溃坝后下游无水时的溃坝波呈反"S"型向下游演进,下游有水时会有相对稳定的激波区产生;渐进流区水力特性仅受初始上游水深影响,而激波区水力特性除受上游水深影响外,还受初始下游水深比的影响,随着下游水深的增大,所涌起的激波区范围越广水深越大,但溃坝流量越小。研究结果为大坝或水闸设计及其安全管理提供了参考依据。     

基于可容纳空间变化的河流相演化新模式及其控藏作用——以莱州湾凹陷垦利A构造为例

为了厘清莱州湾凹陷馆陶组油气差异成藏机理，应用层序地层学原理，结合岩心、钻井、测井、地震等资料，对莱州湾凹陷垦利A构造馆陶组沉积期的沉积基准面及可容纳空间变化规律进行研究，建立了层序地层格架与河流相沉积演化模式，分析了河流相储层的控藏作用。结果表明：①馆陶组作为三级层序，内部可划分为3个体系域，由早期高可容纳空间体系域、低可容纳空间体系域和晚期高可容纳空间体系域构成。②馆陶组发育网状河、辫状河和曲流河3种河流相类型，受不同体系域的影响，三者在纵向上不断演化，导致储层垂向相变以及平面差异分布较为明显。③不同河流相的差异性决定了不同的油藏特征，早期发育的网状河储层侧向上相互切割拼接，垂向上存在稳定的泥岩夹层，导致横向连通性较好、垂向连通性较差，形成岩性-构造油藏；中期发育的辫状河储层在侧向和垂向上往复切割、相互叠置，侧向与垂向连通性均较好，形成构造-层状油藏；晚期发育的曲流河储层受大套泥岩隔层阻隔，侧向及垂向连通性均较差，形成孤立的岩性油藏。以上认识可为研究区的下一步勘探评价提供新的依据。     

A deep neural network based classifier for brain tumor diagnosis

Classification process plays a key role in diagnosing brain tumors. Earlier research works are intended for identifying brain tumors using different classification techniques. However, the False Alarm Rates (FARs) of existing classification techniques are high. To improve the early-stage brain tumor diagnosis via classification the Weighted Correlation Feature Selection Based Iterative Bayesian Multivariate Deep Neural Learning (WCFS-IBMDNL) technique is proposed in this work. The WCFS-IBMDNL algorithm considers medical dataset for classifying the brain tumor diagnosis at an early stage. At first, the WCFS-IBMDNL technique performs Weighted Correlation-Based Feature Selection (WC-FS) by selecting subsets of medical features that are relevant for classification of brain tumors. After completing the feature selection process, the WCFS-IBMDNL technique uses Iterative Bayesian Multivariate Deep Neural Network (IBMDNN) classifier for reducing the misclassification error rate of brain tumor identification. The WCFS-IBMDNL technique was evaluated in JAVA language using Disease Diagnosis Rate (DDR), Disease Diagnosis Time (DDT), and FAR parameter through the epileptic seizure recognition dataset.
