No-reference stereoscopic image quality assessment using quaternion wavelet transform and heterogeneous ensemble learning

As the demand for high-quality stereo images has grown in recent years, stereoscopic image quality assessment (SIQA) has become an important research area in modern image processing technology.In this paper, we propose a no-reference stereoscopic image quality assessment (NR-SIQA) model using heterogeneous ensemble learning ‘quality-aware’ features from luminance image, chrominance image, disparity and cyclopean images via quaternion wavelet transform (QWT). Firstly, luminance image and chrominance image are generated by CIELAB color space as monocular perception, and the novel disparity and cyclopean images are utilized to complement with monocular information. Then, a number of ‘quality-aware’ features in the quaternion wavelet domain are discovered, including entropy, texture features, energy features, energy differences features and MSCN coefficients of high frequency sub-band. Finally, a heterogeneous ensemble model via support vector regression (SVR) & extreme learning machine (ELM) & random forest (RF) is proposed to predict quality score, and bootstrap sampling and rotated feature space are used to increase the diversity of data distribution. Comparing with the state-of-the-art NR-SIQA models, experimental results on four public databases prove the accuracy and robustness of the proposed model.     

航空发动机传感器故障鲁棒检测方法

研究发动机传感器故障准确检测问题,现代航空发动机数字电子控制系统对传感器的可靠性要求日益提高。针对航空发动机结构复杂,又工作在高温和高压下,常规采用的传感器故障检测方法的准确性易受到建模误差与外界扰动的影响,造成漏报或误报。为了提高检测精度,提出建立航空发动机数控系统传感器未知输入故障模型,采用特征结构配置的方法,通过配置闭环系统左特征向量实现故障检测残差对不确定性因素的干扰解耦,降低扰动对故障诊断结果的影响。用某型涡扇发动机数控系统传感器故障数字仿真试验表明,所设计的方法对范数有界的不确定量可以实现干扰解耦,抑制干扰对故障检测的影响,改善检测算法的鲁棒性,提高检测结果的准确性,同时满足在线运算的实时性要求。提高了航空发动机的可靠性,保证了安全飞行。     

Discourse cues to deception in the case of multiple receivers

Behavioral cues to deception are instrumental in detecting deception. As one of the primary sources of deception behavior, text has been analyzed at the level of sub-sentence or message but not the discourse of interaction. Additionally, empirical studies on cues to deception in the case of multiple receivers remain nonexistent. To fill these voids, we propose a discourse framework and six hypotheses about deception behaviors in a multi-receiver environment. The deception behaviors are operationalized by discourse features based on an analysis of real-world data. The results of statistical analysis validate the efficacy of discourse features in discriminating deceivers from truth-tellers.     

新疆某黄土的土水特征及其分形描述

本研究采用新疆某引水渠道边坡的黄土填料进行土水特征曲线试验,研究压实度和应力水平对土料的土水特征的影响规律。针对试验结果,本研究首先采用经典的van Genuchten模型进行曲线拟合。然后采用分形理论进行土水特征曲线的比较分析。结果表明:(1)随着压实度的增加,土水特征曲线向下移动;随着轴向应力的增加,土水特征曲线也会有所下移;(2)相应于孔隙分布,该土料的土水特征曲线具有明显的分形特性;(3)在相同压实度下,不同应力水平的SWCC分形拟合基本平行。采用本文所述的分形方法,在已知不同应力水平下的孔隙率时,可较为合理的从一个应力水平下的土水特征曲线推求其它应力水平下的土水特征曲线。     

HMM-based state classification of a user with a walking support system using visual PCA features

The improvement of safety and dependability in systems that physically interact with humans requires investigation with respect to the possible states of the user’s motion and an attempt to recognize these states. In this study, we propose a method for real-time visual state classification of a user with a walking support system. The visual features are extracted using principal component analysis and classification is performed by hidden Markov models, both for real-time fall detection (one-class classification) and real-time state recognition (multi-class classification). The algorithms are used in experiments with a passive-type walker robot called “RT Walker” equipped with servo brakes and a depth sensor (Microsoft Kinect). The experiments are performed with 10 subjects, including an experienced physiotherapist who can imitate the walking pattern of the elderly and people with disabilities. The results of the state classification can be used to improve fall-prevention control algorithms for walking support systems. The proposed method can also be used for other vision-based classification applications, which require real-time abnormality detection or state recognition.     

A new approach of audio emotion recognition

A new architecture of intelligent audio emotion recognition is proposed in this paper. It fully utilizes both prosodic and spectral features in its design. It has two main paths in parallel and can recognize 6 emotions. Path 1 is designed based on intensive analysis of different prosodic features. Significant prosodic features are identified to differentiate emotions. Path 2 is designed based on research analysis on spectral features. Extraction of Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) feature is then followed by Bi-directional Principle Component Analysis (BDPCA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural classification. This path has 3 parallel BDPCA + LDA + RBF sub-paths structure and each handles two emotions. Fusion modules are also proposed for weights assignment and decision making. The performance of the proposed architecture is evaluated on eNTERFACE’05 and RML databases. Simulation results and comparison have revealed good performance of the proposed recognizer.     

基于类标记扩展的半监督网络流量特征选择算法

针对网络流量特征选择过程中存在的样本标记瓶颈问题,以及现有半监督方法无法选择强相关的特征的不足,提出一种基于类标记扩展的多类半监督特征选择(SFSEL)算法。该算法首先从少量的标记样本出发,通过K-means算法对未标记样本进行类标记扩展;然后结合基于双重正则的支持向量机(MDrSVM)算法实现多类数据的特征选择。与半监督特征选择算法Spectral、PCFRSC和SEFR在Moore数据集进行了对比实验,SFSEL得到的分类准确率和召回率明显都要高于其他算法,而且SFSEL算法选择的特征个数明显少于其他算法。实验结果表明: SFSEL算法能够有效地提高所选特征的相关性,获取更好的网络流量分类性能。
