Abstract The purpose of Human Activities Recognition (HAR) is to recognize human activities with sensors like accelerometers and gyroscopes. The normal research strategy is to obtain better HAR results by finding more efficient eigenvalues and classification algorithms. In this paper, we experimentally validate the HAR process and its various algorithms independently. On the base of which, it is further proposed that, in addition to the necessary eigenvalues and intelligent algorithms, correct prior knowledge is even more critical. The prior knowledge mentioned here mainly refers to the physical understanding of the analyzed object, the sampling process, the sampling data, the HAR algorithm,… More >

Abstract Every day, the media reports tons of crimes that are considered by a large number of users and accumulate on a regular basis. Crime news exists on the Internet in unstructured formats such as books, websites, documents, and journals. From such homogeneous data, it is very challenging to extract relevant information which is a time-consuming and critical task for the public and law enforcement agencies. Keyword-based Information Retrieval (IR) systems rely on statistics to retrieve results, making it difficult to obtain relevant results. They are unable to understand the user's query and thus face word mismatches due to context changes… More >

Abstract Accurate tumor segmentation from brain tissues in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) imaging is crucial in the pre-surgical planning of brain tumor malignancy. MRI images’ heterogeneous intensity and fuzzy boundaries make brain tumor segmentation challenging. Furthermore, recent studies have yet to fully employ MRI sequences’ considerable and supplementary information, which offers critical a priori knowledge. This paper proposes a clinical knowledge-based hybrid Swin Transformer multimodal brain tumor segmentation algorithm based on how experts identify malignancies from MRI images. During the encoder phase, a dual backbone network with a Swin Transformer backbone to capture long dependencies from 3D MR images and a… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT), the automation of edge-side equipment has emerged as a significant trend. The existing fault diagnosis methods have the characteristics of heavy computing and storage load, and most of them have computational redundancy, which is not suitable for deployment on edge devices with limited resources and capabilities. This paper proposes a novel two-stage edge-side fault diagnosis method based on double knowledge distillation. First, we offer a clustering-based self-knowledge distillation approach (Cluster KD), which takes the mean value of the sample diagnosis results, clusters them, and takes the clustering results as the… More >

Abstract Traffic scene captioning technology automatically generates one or more sentences to describe the content of traffic scenes by analyzing the content of the input traffic scene images, ensuring road safety while providing an important decision-making function for sustainable transportation. In order to provide a comprehensive and reasonable description of complex traffic scenes, a traffic scene semantic captioning model with multi-stage feature enhancement is proposed in this paper. In general, the model follows an encoder-decoder structure. First, multi-level granularity visual features are used for feature enhancement during the encoding process, which enables the model to learn more detailed content in the… More >

Abstract The development of digital platforms is transforming caregiver-patient interactions and the dissemination of knowledge. Obtaining information from the Internet has become a habit for many patients and must be considered by caregivers. Thus, understanding the use of digital tools by patients is a public health issue. The Sav-AQ study aims to understand patterns of use by women with breast cancer and the role of health professionals. Sav-AQ is an exploratory feasibility study with a mixed design, exploring patient and healthcare experience before and after the integration of a specific website into their care pathways. The research is based on the… More >

Abstract The acquisition of valuable design knowledge from massive fragmentary data is challenging for designers in conceptual product design. This study proposes a novel method for acquiring design knowledge by combining deep learning with knowledge graph. Specifically, the design knowledge acquisition method utilises the knowledge extraction model to extract design-related entities and relations from fragmentary data, and further constructs the knowledge graph to support design knowledge acquisition for conceptual product design. Moreover, the knowledge extraction model introduces ALBERT to solve memory limitation and communication overhead in the entity extraction module, and uses multi-granularity information to overcome segmentation errors and polysemy ambiguity… More >

Abstract Due to the many types of distributed denial-of-service attacks (DDoS) attacks and the large amount of data generated, it becomes a challenge to manage and apply the malicious behavior knowledge generated by DDoS attacks. We propose a malicious behavior knowledge base framework for DDoS attacks, which completes the construction and application of a multi-domain malicious behavior knowledge base. First, we collected malicious behavior traffic generated by five mainstream DDoS attacks. At the same time, we completed the knowledge collection mechanism through data pre-processing and dataset design. Then, we designed a malicious behavior category graph and malicious behavior structure graph for… More >

Abstract Equipment defect detection is essential to the security and stability of power grid networking operations. Besides the status of the power grid itself, environmental information is also necessary for equipment defect detection. At the same time, different types of intelligent sensors can monitor environmental information, such as temperature, humidity, dust, etc. Therefore, we apply the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to monitor the related environment and pervasive interconnections to diverse physical objects. However, the data related to device defects in the existing Internet of Things are complex and lack uniform association hence building a knowledge graph is proposed to solve… More >

Abstract With the popularity of online learning and due to the significant influence of emotion on the learning effect, more and more researches focus on emotion recognition in online learning. Most of the current research uses the comments of the learning platform or the learner’s expression for emotion recognition. The research data on other modalities are scarce. Most of the studies also ignore the impact of instructional videos on learners and the guidance of knowledge on data. Because of the need for other modal research data, we construct a synchronous multimodal data set for analyzing learners’ emotional states in online learning… More >
