Abstract Multi-label image classification is recognized as an important task within the field of computer vision, a discipline that has experienced a significant escalation in research endeavors in recent years. The widespread adoption of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has catalyzed the remarkable success of architectures such as ResNet-101 within the domain of image classification. However, in multi-label image classification tasks, it is crucial to consider the correlation between labels. In order to improve the accuracy and performance of multi-label classification and fully combine visual and semantic features, many existing studies use graph convolutional networks (GCN) for… More >

Abstract The widespread availability of digital multimedia data has led to a new challenge in digital forensics. Traditional source camera identification algorithms usually rely on various traces in the capturing process. However, these traces have become increasingly difficult to extract due to wide availability of various image processing algorithms. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)-based algorithms have demonstrated good discriminative capabilities for different brands and even different models of camera devices. However, their performances is not ideal in case of distinguishing between individual devices of the same model, because cameras of the same model typically use the same… More >

Abstract The collective Unmanned Weapon System-of-Systems (UWSOS) network represents a fundamental element in modern warfare, characterized by a diverse array of unmanned combat platforms interconnected through heterogeneous network architectures. Despite its strategic importance, the UWSOS network is highly susceptible to hostile infiltrations, which significantly impede its battlefield recovery capabilities. Existing methods to enhance network resilience predominantly focus on basic graph relationships, neglecting the crucial higher-order dependencies among nodes necessary for capturing multi-hop meta-paths within the UWSOS. To address these limitations, we propose the Enhanced-Resilience Multi-Layer Attention Graph Convolutional Network (E-MAGCN), designed to augment the adaptability of More >

Abstract In recent years, semantic segmentation on 3D point cloud data has attracted much attention. Unlike 2D images where pixels distribute regularly in the image domain, 3D point clouds in non-Euclidean space are irregular and inherently sparse. Therefore, it is very difficult to extract long-range contexts and effectively aggregate local features for semantic segmentation in 3D point cloud space. Most current methods either focus on local feature aggregation or long-range context dependency, but fail to directly establish a global-local feature extractor to complete the point cloud semantic segmentation tasks. In this paper, we propose a Transformer-based… More >

Abstract In light of the prevailing issue that the existing convolutional neural network (CNN) power quality disturbance identification method can only extract single-scale features, which leads to a lack of feature information and weak anti-noise performance, a new approach for identifying power quality disturbances based on an adaptive Kalman filter (KF) and multi-scale channel attention (MS-CAM) fused convolutional neural network is suggested. Single and composite-disruption signals are generated through simulation. The adaptive maximum likelihood Kalman filter is employed for noise reduction in the initial disturbance signal, and subsequent integration of multi-scale features into the conventional CNN… More >

Abstract Image inpainting is a kind of use known area of information technology to repair the loss or damage to the area. Image feature extraction is the core of image restoration. Getting enough space for information and a larger receptive field is very important to realize high-precision image inpainting. However, in the process of feature extraction, it is difficult to meet the two requirements of obtaining sufficient spatial information and large receptive fields at the same time. In order to obtain more spatial information and a larger receptive field at the same time, we put forward… More >

Abstract Accurate wind power forecasting is critical for system integration and stability as renewable energy reliance grows. Traditional approaches frequently struggle with complex data and non-linear connections. This article presents a novel approach for hybrid ensemble learning that is based on rigorous requirements engineering concepts. The approach finds significant parameters influencing forecasting accuracy by evaluating real-time Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA2) data from several European Wind farms using in-depth stakeholder research and requirements elicitation. Ensemble learning is used to develop a robust model, while a temporal convolutional network handles time-series complexities and data… More >

Abstract Deep neural network-based relational extraction research has made significant progress in recent years, and it provides data support for many natural language processing downstream tasks such as building knowledge graph, sentiment analysis and question-answering systems. However, previous studies ignored much unused structural information in sentences that could enhance the performance of the relation extraction task. Moreover, most existing dependency-based models utilize self-attention to distinguish the importance of context, which hardly deals with multiple-structure information. To efficiently leverage multiple structure information, this paper proposes a dynamic structure attention mechanism model based on textual structure information, which deeply… More >

Abstract In recent years, skeleton-based action recognition has made great achievements in Computer Vision. A graph convolutional network (GCN) is effective for action recognition, modelling the human skeleton as a spatio-temporal graph. Most GCNs define the graph topology by physical relations of the human joints. However, this predefined graph ignores the spatial relationship between non-adjacent joint pairs in special actions and the behavior dependence between joint pairs, resulting in a low recognition rate for specific actions with implicit correlation between joint pairs. In addition, existing methods ignore the trend correlation between adjacent frames within an action… More >

Abstract Time series forecasting plays an important role in various fields, such as energy, finance, transport, and weather. Temporal convolutional networks (TCNs) based on dilated causal convolution have been widely used in time series forecasting. However, two problems weaken the performance of TCNs. One is that in dilated casual convolution, causal convolution leads to the receptive fields of outputs being concentrated in the earlier part of the input sequence, whereas the recent input information will be severely lost. The other is that the distribution shift problem in time series has not been adequately solved. To address… More >
