Guided Volume Editing based on Histogram Dissimilarity

Segmentation of volumetric data is an important part of many analysis pipelines, but frequently requires manual inspection and correction. While plenty of volume editing techniques exist, it remains cumbersome and errorprone for the user to find and select appropriate regions for editing. We propose an approach to improve volume editing by detecting potential segmentation defects while considering the underlying structure of the object of interest. Our method is based on a novel histogram dissimilarity measure between individual regions, derived from structural information extracted from the initial segmentation. Based on this information, our interactive system guides the user towards potential defects, provides integrated tools for their inspection, and automatically generates suggestions for their resolution. We demonstrate that our approach can reduce interaction effort and supports the user in a comprehensive investigation for high‐quality segmentations.     

Semi‐Regular Triangle Remeshing: A Comprehensive Study

Semi‐regular triangle remeshing algorithms convert irregular surface meshes into semi‐regular ones. Especially in the field of computer graphics, semi‐regularity is an interesting property because it makes meshes highly suitable for multi‐resolution analysis. In this paper, we survey the numerous remeshing algorithms that have been developed over the past two decades. We propose different classifications to give new and comprehensible insights into both existing methods and issues. We describe how considerable obstacles have already been overcome, and discuss promising perspectives.     

基于轮廓几何稀疏表示的刚性目标模型及其分级检测算法

刚性目标轮廓具有明显几何特性且不易受光照、纹理和颜色等因素影响.结合上述特性和图像稀疏表示原理,提出一种适用于刚性目标的分级检测算法.在基于部件模型(Part-based model, PBM)的框架下,采用匹配追踪算法将目标轮廓自适应地稀疏表示为几何部件的组合,根据部件与目标轮廓的匹配度,构建描述部件空间关系的有序链式结构.利用该链式结构的有序特性逐级缩小待检测范围,以匹配度为权值对各级部件显著图进行加权融合生成目标显著图. PASCAL图像库上的检测结果表明,该检测方法对具有显著轮廓特征的刚性目标有较好的检测结果,检测时耗较现有算法减少约60%~90%.     

一种基于OpenFlow的SDN访问控制策略实时冲突检测与解决方法

软件定义网络SDN(Software-Defined Networking)是由美国斯坦福大学Clean Slate研究组提出的一种新型网络创新架构,可通过软件编程的形式定义和控制网络,其控制平面和转发平面分离及开放性可编程的特点,为新型互联网体系结构研究提供了新的实验途径,也极大地推动了下一代互联网的发展.OpenFlow是SDN的主要协议,定义了SDN控制器与交换机之间的通信标准.目前,很多基于OpenFlow的SDN设备已经在实际中得到了部署.但是,基于OpenFlow的SDN却面临很多安全挑战.其中一个重要的挑战是如何建立一个安全可靠的SDN防火墙应用.由于OpenFlow协议的无状态性,现有的SDN防火墙可以被通过改写交换机中的流表项轻松绕过.针对这一安全威胁,作者提出了基于Flowpath的实时动态策略冲突检测与解决方法.通过获取实时的SDN网络状态,能够准确地检测防火墙策略的直接和间接违反,并且一旦发现冲突,可以基于Flowpath进行自动化和细粒度的冲突解决.最后,作者在开源控制器Floodlight上实现了一个安全增强的防火墙应用FlowVerifier,并基于Mininet对FlowVerifier的性能进行了评估.结果表明FlowVerifier能够检测和自动化地解决SDN网络中由于流表改写而引入的策略冲突及其带来的安全威胁.

A two‐level detector of short‐term unique changes in time series based on a similarity method

In the paper, a novel two‐level algorithm of time‐series change detection is presented. In the first level, to identify non‐stationary sequences in a processed signal, preliminary detection of events is performed with a short‐term prediction comparison. In the second stage, to confirm the changes detected in the first level, a similarity method aimed at identification of unique changes is employed. The detection of changes in a non‐stationary time series is discussed, implemented algorithms are described and the results produced on a sample four financial time series are shown. General conditions for implementing the proposed algorithm as an immune‐like event detector are discussed.

Improving classification-based diagnosis of batch processes through data selection and appropriate pretreatment

This work considers the application of classification algorithms for data-driven fault diagnosis of batch processes. A novel data selection methodology is proposed which enables online classification of detected disturbances without requiring the estimation of unknown (future) process behavior, as is the case in previously reported approaches.The proposed method is benchmarked in two case studies using the Pensim process model of Birol et al. (2002) implemented in RAYMOND. Both a simple k Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) and complex Least Squares Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) are employed for classification to demonstrate the generic nature of the proposed approach. In addition, the influence of different data pretreatment methods on the classification performance is discussed, together with a motivation for selecting the correct pretreatment steps. Finally, the influence of the number of available training batches is studied.The results demonstrate that a good classification performance can be achieved with the proposed data selection method even with a low number of faulty training batches by exploiting knowledge on the nature of the to-be-diagnosed faults in the data pretreatment. This provides a proof of concept for classification-based batch diagnosis and demonstrates the importance of incorporating process insight in the construction of data-driven process monitoring and diagnosis tools.     

Mooring system diagnosis and structural reliability control for position moored vessels

Early diagnosis and fault-tolerant control are essential for safe operation of floating platforms where mooring systems maintain vessel position and must withstand environmental loads. This paper considers two critical faults, line breakage and loss of a buoyancy element and employs vector statistical change detection for timely diagnosis of faults. Diagnosis design is scrutinised and a procedure is proposed based on specified false alarm probability and estimation of the distribution of the test statistics on which change detection is based. A structural reliability index is applied for monitoring the safety level of each mooring line and a set-point chasing algorithm accommodates the effects of line failure, as an integral part of the reliability-based set-point chasing control algorithm. The feasibility of the diagnosis and of the fault-tolerant control strategy is verified in model basin tests.
