Gait recognition and understanding based on hierarchical temporal memory using 3D gait semantic folding
Gait recognition and understanding systems have shown a wide-ranging application prospect. However, their use of unstructured data from image and video has affected their performance, e.g., they are easily influenced by multi-views, occlusion, clothes, and object carrying conditions. This paper addresses these problems using a realistic 3-dimensional (3D) human structural data and sequential pattern learning framework with top-down attention modulating mechanism based on Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM). First, an accurate 2-dimensional (2D) to 3D human body pose and shape semantic parameters estimation method is proposed, which exploits the advantages of an instance-level body parsing model and a virtual dressing method. Second, by using gait semantic folding, the estimated body parameters are encoded using a sparse 2D matrix to construct the structural gait semantic image. In order to achieve time-based gait recognition, an HTM Network is constructed to obtain the sequence-level gait sparse distribution representations (SL-GSDRs). A top-down attention mechanism is introduced to deal with various conditions including multi-views by refining the SL-GSDRs, according to prior knowledge. The proposed gait learning model not only aids gait recognition tasks to overcome the difficulties in real application scenarios but also provides the structured gait semantic images for visual cognition. Experimental analyses on CMU MoBo, CASIA B, TUM-IITKGP, and KY4D datasets show a significant performance gain in terms of accuracy and robustness
Aperiodic Ising model on the Bethe lattice: Exact results
We consider the Ising model on the Bethe lattice with aperiodic modulation of
the couplings, which has been studied numerically in Phys. Rev. E 77, 041113
(2008). Here we present a relevance-irrelevance criterion and solve the
critical behavior exactly for marginal aperiodic sequences. We present
analytical formulae for the continuously varying critical exponents and discuss
a relationship with the (surface) critical behavior of the aperiodic quantum
Ising chain.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, minor correction
DeepSF: deep convolutional neural network for mapping protein sequences to folds
Motivation
Protein fold recognition is an important problem in structural
bioinformatics. Almost all traditional fold recognition methods use sequence
(homology) comparison to indirectly predict the fold of a tar get protein based
on the fold of a template protein with known structure, which cannot explain
the relationship between sequence and fold. Only a few methods had been
developed to classify protein sequences into a small number of folds due to
methodological limitations, which are not generally useful in practice.
Results
We develop a deep 1D-convolution neural network (DeepSF) to directly classify
any protein se quence into one of 1195 known folds, which is useful for both
fold recognition and the study of se quence-structure relationship. Different
from traditional sequence alignment (comparison) based methods, our method
automatically extracts fold-related features from a protein sequence of any
length and map it to the fold space. We train and test our method on the
datasets curated from SCOP1.75, yielding a classification accuracy of 80.4%. On
the independent testing dataset curated from SCOP2.06, the classification
accuracy is 77.0%. We compare our method with a top profile profile alignment
method - HHSearch on hard template-based and template-free modeling targets of
CASP9-12 in terms of fold recognition accuracy. The accuracy of our method is
14.5%-29.1% higher than HHSearch on template-free modeling targets and
4.5%-16.7% higher on hard template-based modeling targets for top 1, 5, and 10
predicted folds. The hidden features extracted from sequence by our method is
robust against sequence mutation, insertion, deletion and truncation, and can
be used for other protein pattern recognition problems such as protein
clustering, comparison and ranking.Comment: 28 pages, 13 figure
Algebraic Model for scattering in three-s-cluster systems. I. Theoretical Background
A framework to calculate two-particle matrix elements for fully
antisymmetrized three-cluster configurations is presented. The theory is
developed for a scattering situation described in terms of the Algebraic Model.
This means that the nuclear many-particle state and its asymptotic behaviour
are expanded in terms of oscillator states of the intra-cluster coordinates.
The Generating Function technique is used to optimize the calculation of matrix
elements. In order to derive the dynamical equations, a multichannel version of
the Algebraic Model is presented.Comment: 20 pages, 1 postscript figure, submitted to Phys. Rev.
