Abstract Early detection of brain tumors is critical for effective treatment planning. Identifying tumors in their nascent stages can significantly enhance the chances of patient survival. While there are various types of brain tumors, each with unique characteristics and treatment protocols, tumors are often minuscule during their initial stages, making manual diagnosis challenging, time-consuming, and potentially ambiguous. Current techniques predominantly used in hospitals involve manual detection via MRI scans, which can be costly, error-prone, and time-intensive. An automated system for detecting brain tumors could be pivotal in identifying the disease in its earliest phases. This research applies several data augmentation techniques… More >

Abstract Onboard visual object tracking in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has attracted much interest due to its versatility. Meanwhile, due to high precision, Siamese networks are becoming hot spots in visual object tracking. However, most Siamese trackers fail to balance the tracking accuracy and time within onboard limited computational resources of UAVs. To meet the tracking precision and real-time requirements, this paper proposes a Siamese dense pixel-level network for UAV object tracking named SiamDPL. Specifically, the Siamese network extracts features of the search region and the template region through a parameter-shared backbone network, then performs correlation matching to obtain the candidate… More >

Abstract The combination of spatiotemporal videos and essential features can improve the performance of human action recognition (HAR); however, the individual type of features usually degrades the performance due to similar actions and complex backgrounds. The deep convolutional neural network has improved performance in recent years for several computer vision applications due to its spatial information. This article proposes a new framework called for video surveillance human action recognition dubbed HybridHR-Net. On a few selected datasets, deep transfer learning is used to pre-trained the EfficientNet-b0 deep learning model. Bayesian optimization is employed for the tuning of hyperparameters of the fine-tuned deep… More >

Abstract Credit Card Fraud Detection (CCFD) is an essential technology for banking institutions to control fraud risks and safeguard their reputation. Class imbalance and insufficient representation of feature data relating to credit card transactions are two prevalent issues in the current study field of CCFD, which significantly impact classification models’ performance. To address these issues, this research proposes a novel CCFD model based on Multifeature Fusion and Generative Adversarial Networks (MFGAN). The MFGAN model consists of two modules: a multi-feature fusion module for integrating static and dynamic behavior data of cardholders into a unified highdimensional feature space, and a balance module… More >

Abstract An action recognition network that combines multi-level spatiotemporal feature fusion with an attention mechanism is proposed as a solution to the issues of single spatiotemporal feature scale extraction, information redundancy, and insufficient extraction of frequency domain information in channels in 3D convolutional neural networks. Firstly, based on 3D CNN, this paper designs a new multilevel spatiotemporal feature fusion (MSF) structure, which is embedded in the network model, mainly through multilevel spatiotemporal feature separation, splicing and fusion, to achieve the fusion of spatial perceptual fields and short-medium-long time series information at different scales with reduced network parameters; In the second step,… More >

Abstract Gait is a biological typical that defines the method by that people walk. Walking is the most significant performance which keeps our day-to-day life and physical condition. Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a weak bioelectric signal that portrays the functional state between the human muscles and nervous system to any extent. Gait classifiers dependent upon sEMG signals are extremely utilized in analysing muscle diseases and as a guide path for recovery treatment. Several approaches are established in the works for gait recognition utilizing conventional and deep learning (DL) approaches.

Abstract The numerous photos captured by low-price Internet of Things (IoT) sensors are frequently affected by meteorological factors, especially rainfall. It causes varying sizes of white streaks on the image, destroying the image texture and ruining the performance of the outdoor computer vision system. Existing methods utilise training with pairs of images, which is difficult to cover all scenes and leads to domain gaps. In addition, the network structures adopt deep learning to map rain images to rain-free images, failing to use prior knowledge effectively. To solve these problems, we introduce a single image derain model in edge computing that combines… More >

Abstract The traditional recommendation algorithm represented by the collaborative filtering algorithm is the most classical and widely recommended algorithm in the practical industry. Most book recommendation systems also use this algorithm. However, the traditional recommendation algorithm represented by the collaborative filtering algorithm cannot deal with the data sparsity well. This algorithm only uses the shallow feature design of the interaction between readers and books, so it fails to achieve the high-level abstract learning of the relevant attribute features of readers and books, leading to a decline in recommendation performance. Given the above problems, this study uses deep learning technology to model… More >

Abstract Infrared target detection models are more required than ever before to be deployed on embedded platforms, which requires models with less memory consumption and better real-time performance while considering accuracy. To address the above challenges, we propose a modified You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm PF-YOLOv4-Tiny. The algorithm incorporates spatial pyramidal pooling (SPP) and squeeze-and-excitation (SE) visual attention modules to enhance the target localization capability. The PANet-based-feature pyramid networks (P-FPN) are proposed to transfer semantic information and location information simultaneously to ameliorate detection accuracy. To lighten the network, the standard convolutions other than the backbone network are replaced with depthwise… More >
