A Performance Evaluation of Classic Convolutional Neural Networks for 2D and 3D Palmprint and Palm Vein Recognition

Palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition are two emerging biometrics technologies. In the past two decades, many traditional methods have been proposed for palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition, and have achieved impressive results. However, the research on deep learning-based palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition is still very preliminary. In this paper, in order to investigate the problem of deep learning based 2D and 3D palmprint recognition and palm vein recognition in-depth, we conduct performance evaluation of seventeen representative and classic convolutional neural networks (CNNs) on one 3D palmprint database, five 2D palmprint databases and two palm vein databases. A lot of experiments have been carried out in the conditions of different network structures, different learning rates, and different numbers of network layers. We have also conducted experiments on both separate data mode and mixed data mode. Experimental results show that these classic CNNs can achieve promising recognition results, and the recognition performance of recently proposed CNNs is better. Particularly, among classic CNNs, one of the recently proposed classic CNNs, i.e., EfficientNet achieves the best recognition accuracy. However, the recognition performance of classic CNNs is still slightly worse than that of some traditional recognition methods.

     

Reaction mechanism and microstructure evolution of reaction sintered <Emphasis Type="Italic">h</Emphasis>-BN

Hexagonal boron nitride ceramic (h-BN) based on the nitridation of B powders was obtained by reaction sintering method. The effects of sintering temperature on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the resultant products were investigated and the reaction mechanism was discussed. Results showed that the reaction between B and N₂ occurred vigorously at temperatures ranging from 1 000 °C to 1 300 °C, which resulted in the generation of t-BN. When the temperature exceeded 1 450 °C, transformation from t-BN to h-BN began to occur. As the sintering temperature increased, the spherical particles of t-BN gradually transformed into fine sheet particles of h-BN. These particles subsequently displayed a compact arrangement to achieve a more uniform microstructure, thereby increasing the strength.     

多视无人机影像环形拼接算法

由于多视无人机影像拼接时误差的传播和累计经常导致拼接图扭曲偏斜或者拼接的失败.针对这个问题提出了构建拼接环并以多级拼接作为辅助的拼接策略.首先将待拼接图像分为多组,每组中以环形方式进行拼接,然后利用SIFT进行匹配,RANSAC实现误匹配的去除,而后计算透视变换关系,最后通过平差方程将误差削弱.通过实拍无人机影像进行的拼接实验表明该方式可以有效减少累计误差的影响,提高拼接精度.该方法的提出可以作为影像拼接消除累计误差的有效方式之一.     

Dynamic data packing towards the optimization of QoC and QoS in networked control systems

A class of networked control systems is investigated whose communication network is shared with other applications. The design objective for such a system setting is not only the optimization of the control performance but also the efficient utilization of the communication resources. We observe that at a large time scale the data packet delay in the communication network is roughly varying piecewise constant, which is typically true for data networks like the Internet. Based on this observation, a dynamic data packing scheme is proposed within the recently developed packet-based control framework for networked control systems. As expected this proposed approach achieves a fine balance between the control performance and the communication utilization: the similar control performance can be obtained at dramatically reduced cost of the communication resources. Simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

损伤变量对复合材料损伤演化过程的影响分析

复合材料层合板损伤模型中的刚度退化需要通过损伤变量来实现。针对通常采用的2种损伤变量定义,给出了统一表达式。此外,损伤刚度矩阵是损伤变量的函数,基于应变等效假设推导了三维损伤刚度矩阵,从而避免了对损伤刚度矩阵的人为假定。最后,通过复合材料层合板在冲击载荷作用下的数值模拟,讨论了损伤变量的2种定义对数值结果的影响,表明损伤变量的不同定义对分层和基体损伤分布存在一定的影响,对冲击载荷的影响不大。建议在复合材料损伤模拟中,应予关注损伤变量。
