Dynamic ship positioning based on hydroacoustic systems
The Article describes the concept for development of a dynamic ship positioning system based on the information provided by hydroacoustic systems. It is the first presentation for the wide audience of a modern method for determination of position using modern measuring and processing technology where the hydroacoustic wave is the carrier of information
Cascade Object Detection and Remote Sensing Object Detection Method Based on Trainable Activation Function
Object detection is an important process in surveillance system to locate objects and it is considered as major application in computer vision. The Convolution Neural Network (CNN) based models have been developed by many researchers for object detection to achieve higher performance. However, existing models have some limitations such as overfitting problem and lower efficiency in small object detection. Object detection in remote sensing hasthe limitations of low efficiency in detecting small object and the existing methods have poor localization. Cascade Object Detection methods have been applied to increase the learning process of the detection model. In this research, the Additive Activation Function (AAF) is applied in a Faster Region based CNN (RCNN) for object detection. The proposed AAF-Faster RCNN method has the advantage of better convergence and clear bounding variance. The Fourier Series and Linear Combination of activation function are used to update the loss function. The Microsoft (MS) COCO datasets and Pascal VOC 2007/2012 are used to evaluate the performance of the AAF-Faster RCNN model. The proposed AAF-Faster RCNN is also analyzed for small object detection in the benchmark dataset. The analysis shows that the proposed AAF-Faster RCNN model has higher efficiency than state-of-art Pay Attention to Them (PAT) model in object detection. To evaluate the performance of AAF-Faster RCNN method of object detection in remote sensing, the NWPU VHR-10 remote sensing data set is used to test the proposed method. The AAF-Faster RCNN model has mean Average Precision (mAP) of 83.1% and existing PAT-SSD512 method has the 81.7%mAP in Pascal VOC 2007 dataset

Plant G-protein activation: connecting to plant receptor kinases
Plant heterotrimeric G-proteins function in important signaling pathways mediated by plant receptor kinases (RKs), however, the unique biochemical properties of Gα subunits have complicated our understanding of their regulation in plants. In their new paper in Cell Research, Liang et al. reveal that phosphorylation of the Gα regulator, RGS1, is critical for triggering G-protein signaling downstream of RK activation
