WPU-Net: Boundary Learning by Using Weighted Propagation in Convolution Network
Deep learning has driven a great progress in natural and biological image
processing. However, in material science and engineering, there are often some
flaws and indistinctions in material microscopic images induced from complex
sample preparation, even due to the material itself, hindering the detection of
target objects. In this work, we propose WPU-net that redesigns the
architecture and weighted loss of U-Net, which forces the network to integrate
information from adjacent slices and pays more attention to the topology in
boundary detection task. Then, the WPU-net is applied into a typical material
example, i.e., the grain boundary detection of polycrystalline material.
Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method achieves promising performance
and outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Besides, we propose a new method for
object tracking between adjacent slices, which can effectively reconstruct 3D
structure of the whole material. Finally, we present a material microscopic
image dataset with the goal of advancing the state-of-the-art in image
processing for material science.Comment: technical repor
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
