Abstract Human motion recognition plays a crucial role in the video analysis framework. However, a given video may contain a variety of noises, such as an unstable background and redundant actions, that are completely different from the key actions. These noises pose a great challenge to human motion recognition. To solve this problem, we propose a new method based on the 3-Dimensional (3D) Bag of Visual Words (BoVW) framework. Our method includes two parts: The first part is the video action feature extractor, which can identify key actions by analyzing action features. In the video action More >

Abstract In this paper, the mathematical model describing the third-grade nonNewtonian blood flow suspended with nanoparticles through porous arteries is exactly solved. The present physical model was solved in the research literature via the optimal homotopy analysis method and the collocation method, where the obtained solution was compared with the numerical fourth-order Runge-Kutta solution. However, the present paper only introduces a new approach to obtain the exact solution of the concerned system and implements such exact solution as a reference to validate the published approximate solutions. Several remarks on the previously published results are observed and… More >

Abstract In the distributed networks, many applications send information from a source node to multiple destination nodes. To support these applications requirements, the paper presents a multi-objective algorithm based on ant colonies to construct a multicast tree for data transmission in a computer network. The proposed algorithm simultaneously optimizes total weight (cost, delay and hop) of the multicast tree. Experimental results prove the proposed algorithm outperforms a recently published Multi-objective Multicast Algorithm specially designed for solving the multicast routing problem. Also, it is able to find a better solution with fast convergence speed and high reliability. More >

Abstract The Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) is an algorithmic framework for finding approximate solutions to combinatorial optimization problems. It consists of interleaved unitary transformations induced by two operators labelled the mixing and problem Hamiltonians. To fit this framework, one needs to transform the original problem into a suitable form and embed it into these two Hamiltonians. In this paper, for the well-known NP-hard Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), we encode its constraints into the mixing Hamiltonian rather than the conventional approach of adding penalty terms to the problem Hamiltonian. Moreover, we map edges (routes) connecting each More >

Abstract The majority of the population on the African continent is unable to access basic electricity services, this despite the abundance of renewable energy sources (RESs). The inability to adequately tap into these RESs has led to the continued dependence on nonrenewable energy sources such as coal for electricity generation, and kerosene for cooking and lighting, the resulting use of which is poor health conditions. The use of Microgrids (MGs) is being extensively researched as a feasible means of tackling the challenge of electrification, especially in rural and remote areas.

Abstract The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in China has increased in recent years. The mortality rate of CRC has become one of the highest among all cancers; CRC increasingly affects the health and quality of people’s lives. However, due to the insufficiency of medical resources in China, the workload on medical doctors has further increased. In the past few decades, the adult CRC mortality and morbidity rate dropped sharply, mainly because of CRC screening and removal of adenomatous polyps. However, due to the differences in polyp itself and the skills of endoscopists, the detection rate… More >

The SU nodes (i.e., relay nodes) on the path, store and forward the received data to the destination node. We consider a real world scenario where the EH-SU node has only local causal knowledge, i.e., at any time, each EH-SU node only has knowledge of its own EH… More >

Before the execution of the proposed protocol, two participants Alice and Bob exchange their corresponding identity IDA and IDB through quantum key distribution and keep them secret, respectively. Then the message sender, Alice, encodes each secret message bit into two single photons (| 01〉or|10〉) or a Bell… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of mobile wireless Internet and high-precision localization devices, location-based services (LBS) bring more convenience for people over recent years. In LBS, if the original location data are directly provided, serious privacy problems raise. As a response to these problems, a large number of location-privacy protection mechanisms (LPPMs) (including formal LPPMs, FLPPMs, etc.) and their evaluation metrics have been proposed to prevent personal location information from being leakage and quantify privacy leakage. However, existing schemes independently consider FLPPMs and evaluation metrics, without synergizing them into a unifying framework. In this paper, a… More >

Abstract Speaker separation in complex acoustic environment is one of challenging tasks in speech separation. In practice, speakers are very often unmoving or moving slowly in normal communication. In this case, the spatial features among the consecutive speech frames become highly correlated such that it is helpful for speaker separation by providing additional spatial information. To fully exploit this information, we design a separation system on Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) with long short-term memory (LSTM) which effectively learns the temporal dynamics of spatial features. In detail, a LSTM-based speaker separation algorithm is proposed to extract the… More >

Abstract Currently, the top-rank-k has been widely applied to mine frequent patterns with a rank not exceeding k. In the existing algorithms, although a level-wise-search could fully mine the target patterns, it usually leads to the delay of high rank patterns generation, resulting in the slow growth of the support threshold and the mining efficiency. Aiming at this problem, a greedy-strategy-based top-rank-k frequent patterns hybrid mining algorithm (GTK) is proposed in this paper. In this algorithm, top-rank-k patterns are stored in a static doubly linked list called RSL, and the patterns are divided into short patterns and long… More >

The expression of the optimal order of SAR range signals via FrFT is deduced in detail. The initial sample More >

Nevertheless, the reliance on the pre-extraction of the optical flow impedes the efficiency of action recognition, and the temporal and the spatial streams are just simply fused at the ends, with one stream failing and the other stream succeeding.

Abstract Real-time detection of driver fatigue status is of great significance for road traffic safety. In this paper, a proposed novel driver fatigue detection method is able to detect the driver’s fatigue status around the clock. The driver’s face images were captured by a camera with a colored lens and an infrared lens mounted above the dashboard. The landmarks of the driver’s face were labeled and the eye-area wassegmented. By calculating the aspect ratios of the eyes, the duration of eye closure, frequency of blinks and PERCLOS of both colored and infrared, fatigue can be detected. More >

Abstract Understanding an image goes beyond recognizing and locating the objects in it, the relationships between objects also very important in image understanding. Most previous methods have focused on recognizing local predictions of the relationships. But real-world image relationships often determined by the surrounding objects and other contextual information. In this work, we employ this insight to propose a novel framework to deal with the problem of visual relationship detection. The core of the framework is a relationship inference network, which is a recurrent structure designed for combining the global contextual information of the object to More >
