Abstract Insects play an important role in the natural ecology, it is of great significance for ecology to research on insects. Nowadays, the invasion of alien species has brought serious troubles and a lot of losses to local life. However, there is still much room for improvement in the accuracy of insect recognition to effectively prevent the invasion of alien species. As the latest target detection algorithm, YOLOv5 has been used in various scene detection tasks, because of its powerful recognition capabilities and extremely high accuracy. As the problem of imbalance of feature maps at different scales will affect the accuracy… More >

Abstract The current deep convolution features based on retrieval methods cannot fully use the characteristics of the salient image regions. Also, they cannot effectively suppress the background noises, so it is a challenging task to retrieve objects in cluttered scenarios. To solve the problem, we propose a new image retrieval method that employs a novel feature aggregation approach with an attention mechanism and utilizes a combination of local and global features. The method first extracts global and local features of the input image and then selects keypoints from local features by using the attention mechanism. After that, the feature aggregation mechanism… More >

Abstract Hajj and Umrah are two main religious duties for Muslims. To help faithfuls to perform their religious duties comfortably in overcrowded areas, a crowd management system is a must to control the entering and exiting for each place. Since the number of people is very high, an intelligent crowd management system can be developed to reduce human effort and accelerate the management process. In this work, we propose a crowd management process based on detecting, tracking, and counting human faces using Artificial Intelligence techniques. Human detection and counting will be performed to calculate the number of existing visitors and face… More >

Abstract With the development of the Internet of Things (IoT), diverse wireless devices are increasing rapidly. Those devices have different wireless interfaces that generate incompatible wireless signals. Each signal has its own physical characteristics with signal modulation and demodulation scheme. When there exist different wireless devices, they can suffer from severe Cross-Technology Interferences (CTI). To reduce the communication overhead due to the CTI in the real IoT environment, a central coordinator can be able to detect and identify wireless signals existing in the same communication areas. This paper investigates how to classify various radio signals using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Long… More >

Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD), classified under the category of a neurological syndrome, affects the brain of a person which leads to the motor and non-motor symptoms. Among motor symptoms, one of the major disabling symptom is Freezing of Gait (FoG) that affects the daily standard of living of PD patients. Available treatments target to improve the symptoms of PD. Detection of PD at the early stages is an arduous task due to being indistinguishable from a healthy individual. This work proposed a novel attention-based model for the detection of FoG events and PD, and measuring the intensity of PD on the… More >

Abstract Image dehazing is still an open research topic that has been undergoing a lot of development, especially with the renewed interest in machine learning-based methods. A major challenge of the existing dehazing methods is the estimation of transmittance, which is the key element of haze-affected imaging models. Conventional methods are based on a set of assumptions that reduce the solution search space. However, the multiplication of these assumptions tends to restrict the solutions to particular cases that cannot account for the reality of the observed image. In this paper we reduce the number of simplified hypotheses in order to attain… More >

Abstract Fracture toughness plays a vital role in damage tolerance design of materials and assessment of structural integrity. To solve these problems of complexity, time-consuming, and low accuracy in obtaining the fracture toughness value of nickel-based superalloys through experiments. A combination prediction model is proposed based on the principle of materials genome engineering, the fracture toughness values of nickel-based superalloys at different temperatures, and different compositions can be predicted based on the existing experimental data. First, to solve the problem of insufficient feature extraction based on manual experience, the Deep Belief Network (DBN) is used to extract features, and an attention… More >

Abstract Facial Expression Recognition (FER) has been an interesting area of research in places where there is human-computer interaction. Human psychology, emotions and behaviors can be analyzed in FER. Classifiers used in FER have been perfect on normal faces but have been found to be constrained in occluded faces. Recently, Deep Learning Techniques (DLT) have gained popularity in applications of real-world problems including recognition of human emotions. The human face reflects emotional states and human intentions. An expression is the most natural and powerful way of communicating non-verbally. Systems which form communications between the two are termed Human Machine Interaction (HMI)… More >

Abstract This paper proposes an enhancement of an automatic text recognition system for extracting information from the front side of the Vietnamese citizen identity (CID) card. First, we apply Mask-RCNN to segment and align the CID card from the background. Next, we present two approaches to detect the CID card’s text lines using traditional image processing techniques compared to the EAST detector. Finally, we introduce a new end-to-end Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network (CRNN) model based on a combination of Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) and attention mechanism for Vietnamese text recognition by jointly train the CTC and attention objective functions together. The… More >

Abstract Person re-identification (ReID) is the use of computer vision and machine learning techniques to determine whether the pedestrians in the two images under different cameras are the same person. It can also be regarded as a matching retrieval task for person targets in different scenes. The research focuses on how to obtain effective person features from images with occlusion, angle change, and target attitude change. Based on the present difficulties and challenges in ReID, the paper proposes a ReID method based on joint loss and multi-attention network. It improves the person re-identification algorithm based on global characteristics, introduces spatial attention… More >
