Learning Rich Features for Image Manipulation Detection
Image manipulation detection is different from traditional semantic object
detection because it pays more attention to tampering artifacts than to image
content, which suggests that richer features need to be learned. We propose a
two-stream Faster R-CNN network and train it endto- end to detect the tampered
regions given a manipulated image. One of the two streams is an RGB stream
whose purpose is to extract features from the RGB image input to find tampering
artifacts like strong contrast difference, unnatural tampered boundaries, and
so on. The other is a noise stream that leverages the noise features extracted
from a steganalysis rich model filter layer to discover the noise inconsistency
between authentic and tampered regions. We then fuse features from the two
streams through a bilinear pooling layer to further incorporate spatial
co-occurrence of these two modalities. Experiments on four standard image
manipulation datasets demonstrate that our two-stream framework outperforms
each individual stream, and also achieves state-of-the-art performance compared
to alternative methods with robustness to resizing and compression.Comment: CVPR 2018 Camera Read
Strong similarities between the local electronic structure of insulating iron pnictide and lightly doped cuprate
One of the major puzzles regarding unconventional superconductivity is how
some of the most interesting superconductors are related to an insulating phase
that lies in close proximity. Here we report scanning tunneling microscopy
studies of the local electronic structure of Cu doped NaFeAs across the
superconductor to insulator transition. We find that in the highly insulating
regime the electronic spectrum develops an energy gap with diminishing density
of state at the Fermi level. The overall lineshape and strong spatial
variations of the spectra are strikingly similar to that of lightly doped
cuprates close to the parent Mott insulator. We propose that the suppression of
itinerant electron state and strong impurity potential induced by Cu dopants
lead to this insulating iron pnictide.Comment: 6 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev.
Future directions in ventilator-induced lung injury associated cognitive impairment: a new sight
Mechanical ventilation is a widely used short-term life support technique, but an accompanying adverse consequence can be pulmonary damage which is called ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Mechanical ventilation can potentially affect the central nervous system and lead to long-term cognitive impairment. In recent years, many studies revealed that VILI, as a common lung injury, may be involved in the central pathogenesis of cognitive impairment by inducing hypoxia, inflammation, and changes in neural pathways. In addition, VILI has received attention in affecting the treatment of cognitive impairment and provides new insights into individualized therapy. The combination of lung protective ventilation and drug therapy can overcome the inevitable problems of poor prognosis from a new perspective. In this review, we summarized VILI and non-VILI factors as risk factors for cognitive impairment and concluded the latest mechanisms. Moreover, we retrospectively explored the role of improving VILI in cognitive impairment treatment. This work contributes to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of VILI-induced cognitive impairment and may provide future direction for the treatment and prognosis of cognitive impairment
