Abstract Fabric defect detection plays a vital role in ensuring textile quality. However, traditional manual inspection methods are often inefficient and inaccurate. To overcome these limitations, we propose FD-YOLO, an enhanced lightweight detection model based on the YOLOv11n framework. The proposed model introduces the Bi-level Routing Attention (BRAttention) mechanism to enhance defect feature extraction, enabling more detailed feature representation. It proposes Deep Progressive Cross-Scale Fusion Neck (DPCSFNeck) to better capture small-scale defects and incorporates a Multi-Scale Dilated Residual (MSDR) module to strengthen multi-scale feature representation. Furthermore, a Shared Detail-Enhanced Lightweight Head (SDELHead) is employed to reduce More >

Abstract Single Image Super-Resolution (SISR) seeks to reconstruct high-resolution (HR) images from low-resolution (LR) inputs, thereby enhancing visual fidelity and the perception of fine details. While Transformer-based models—such as SwinIR, Restormer, and HAT—have recently achieved impressive results in super-resolution tasks by capturing global contextual information, these methods often suffer from substantial computational and memory overhead, which limits their deployment on resource-constrained edge devices. To address these challenges, we propose a novel lightweight super-resolution network, termed Binary Attention-Guided Information Distillation (BAID), which integrates frequency-aware modeling with a binary attention mechanism to significantly reduce computational complexity and parameter… More >

Abstract Mango is a plant with high economic value in the agricultural industry; thus, it is necessary to maximize the productivity performance of the mango plant, which can be done by implementing artificial intelligence. In this study, a lightweight object detection model will be developed that can detect mango plant conditions based on disease potential, so that it becomes an early detection warning system that has an impact on increasing agricultural productivity. The proposed lightweight model integrates YOLOv7-Tiny and the proposed modules, namely the C2S module. The C2S module consists of three sub-modules such as the… More >

Abstract Modern business information systems face significant challenges in managing heterogeneous data sources, integrating disparate systems, and providing real-time decision support in complex enterprise environments. Contemporary enterprises typically operate 200+ interconnected systems, with research indicating that 52% of organizations manage three or more enterprise content management systems, creating information silos that reduce operational efficiency by up to 35%. While attention mechanisms have demonstrated remarkable success in natural language processing and computer vision, their systematic application to business information systems remains largely unexplored. This paper presents the theoretical foundation for a Hierarchical Attention-Based Business Information System (HABIS)… More >

Abstract Image fusion technology aims to generate a more informative single image by integrating complementary information from multi-modal images. Despite the significant progress of deep learning-based fusion methods, existing algorithms are often limited to single or dual-dimensional feature interactions, thus struggling to fully exploit the profound complementarity between multi-modal images. To address this, this paper proposes a parallel multi-dimensional complementary fusion network, termed PMCFusion, for the task of infrared and visible image fusion. The core of this method is its unique parallel three-branch fusion module, PTFM, which pioneers the parallel synergistic perception and efficient integration of… More >

Abstract Knowledge graphs often suffer from sparsity and incompleteness. Knowledge graph reasoning is an effective way to address these issues. Unlike static knowledge graph reasoning, which is invariant over time, dynamic knowledge graph reasoning is more challenging due to its temporal nature. In essence, within each time step in a dynamic knowledge graph, there exists structural dependencies among entities and relations, whereas between adjacent time steps, there exists temporal continuity. Based on these structural and temporal characteristics, we propose a model named “DKGR-DR” to learn distributed representations of entities and relations by combining recurrent neural networks More >

Abstract The 6D pose estimation of objects is of great significance for the intelligent assembly and sorting of industrial parts. In the industrial robot production scenarios, the 6D pose estimation of industrial parts mainly faces two challenges: one is the loss of information and interference caused by occlusion and stacking in the sorting scenario, the other is the difficulty of feature extraction due to the weak texture of industrial parts. To address the above problems, this paper proposes an attention-based pixel-level voting network for 6D pose estimation of weakly textured industrial parts, namely CB-PVNet. On the… More >

Abstract Understanding fish movement trajectories in aquaculture is essential for practical applications, such as disease warning, feeding optimization, and breeding management. These trajectories reveal key information about the fish’s behavior, health, and environmental adaptability. However, when multi-object tracking (MOT) algorithms are applied to the high-density aquaculture environment, occlusion and overlapping among fish may result in missed detections, false detections, and identity switching problems, which limit the tracking accuracy. To address these issues, this paper proposes FishTracker, a MOT algorithm, by utilizing a Tracking-by-Detection framework. First, the neck part of the YOLOv8 model is enhanced by introducing… More >

Abstract High-resolution remote sensing imagery is essential for critical applications such as precision agriculture, urban management planning, and military reconnaissance. Although significant progress has been made in single-image super-resolution (SISR) using generative adversarial networks (GANs), existing approaches still face challenges in recovering high-frequency details, effectively utilizing features, maintaining structural integrity, and ensuring training stability—particularly when dealing with the complex textures characteristic of remote sensing imagery. To address these limitations, this paper proposes the Improved Residual Module and Attention Mechanism Network (IRMANet), a novel architecture specifically designed for remote sensing image reconstruction. IRMANet builds upon the Super-Resolution… More >

Abstract Accurate and real-time traffic-sign detection is a cornerstone of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles. However, existing one-stage detectors miss distant signs, and two-stage pipelines are impractical for embedded deployment. To address this issue, we present YOLO-SMM, a lightweight two-stage framework. This framework is designed to augment the YOLOv8 baseline with three targeted modules. (1) SlimNeck replaces PAN/FPN with a CSP-OSA/GSConv fusion block, reducing parameters and FLOPs without compromising multi-scale detail. (2) The MCA model introduces row- and column-aware weights to selectively amplify small sign regions in cluttered scenes. (3) MPDIoU augments CIoU loss… More >
