ARTMAP-FTR: A Neural Network For Fusion Target Recognition, With Application To Sonar Classification
ART (Adaptive Resonance Theory) neural networks for fast, stable learning and prediction have been applied in a variety of areas. Applications include automatic mapping from satellite remote sensing data, machine tool monitoring, medical prediction, digital circuit design, chemical analysis, and robot vision. Supervised ART architectures, called ARTMAP systems, feature internal control mechanisms that create stable recognition categories of optimal size by maximizing code compression while minimizing predictive error in an on-line setting. Special-purpose requirements of various application domains have led to a number of ARTMAP variants, including fuzzy ARTMAP, ART-EMAP, ARTMAP-IC, Gaussian ARTMAP, and distributed ARTMAP. A new ARTMAP variant, called ARTMAP-FTR (fusion target recognition), has been developed for the problem of multi-ping sonar target classification. The development data set, which lists sonar returns from underwater objects, was provided by the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Coastal Systems Station (CSS), Dahlgren Division. The ARTMAP-FTR network has proven to be an effective tool for classifying objects from sonar returns. The system also provides a procedure for solving more general sensor fusion problems.Office of Naval Research (N00014-95-I-0409, N00014-95-I-0657

Self-Selective Correlation Ship Tracking Method for Smart Ocean System
In recent years, with the development of the marine industry, navigation
environment becomes more complicated. Some artificial intelligence
technologies, such as computer vision, can recognize, track and count the
sailing ships to ensure the maritime security and facilitates the management
for Smart Ocean System. Aiming at the scaling problem and boundary effect
problem of traditional correlation filtering methods, we propose a
self-selective correlation filtering method based on box regression (BRCF). The
proposed method mainly include: 1) A self-selective model with negative samples
mining method which effectively reduces the boundary effect in strengthening
the classification ability of classifier at the same time; 2) A bounding box
regression method combined with a key points matching method for the scale
prediction, leading to a fast and efficient calculation. The experimental
results show that the proposed method can effectively deal with the problem of
ship size changes and background interference. The success rates and precisions
were higher than Discriminative Scale Space Tracking (DSST) by over 8
percentage points on the marine traffic dataset of our laboratory. In terms of
processing speed, the proposed method is higher than DSST by nearly 22 Frames

ShapeCodes: Self-Supervised Feature Learning by Lifting Views to Viewgrids
We introduce an unsupervised feature learning approach that embeds 3D shape
information into a single-view image representation. The main idea is a
self-supervised training objective that, given only a single 2D image, requires
all unseen views of the object to be predictable from learned features. We
implement this idea as an encoder-decoder convolutional neural network. The
network maps an input image of an unknown category and unknown viewpoint to a
latent space, from which a deconvolutional decoder can best "lift" the image to
its complete viewgrid showing the object from all viewing angles. Our
class-agnostic training procedure encourages the representation to capture
fundamental shape primitives and semantic regularities in a data-driven
manner---without manual semantic labels. Our results on two widely-used shape
datasets show 1) our approach successfully learns to perform "mental rotation"
even for objects unseen during training, and 2) the learned latent space is a
powerful representation for object recognition, outperforming several existing
unsupervised feature learning methods.Comment: To appear at ECCV 201
