Big data, information analysis, and artificial intelligence (AI) havebecome the basis for making strategic decisions in many sensitive areas, such as fraud detection, risk management,medical diagnosis, and counter-terrorism. However, there is still a need to assess how terrorist attacks are related,initiated, and detected. For this purpose, we propose a novel framework for classifying and predicting terroristattacks. The proposed framework posits that neglected text attributes included in the Global Terrorism Database(GTD) can influence the accuracy of the model’s classification of terrorist attacks, where each part of the datacan provide vital information to enrich the ability of classifier learning. Each data point in a multiclass taxonomyhas one or more tags attached to it, referred as “related tags.” We applied machine learning classifiers to classifyterrorist attack incidents obtained from the GTD. A transformer-based technique called DistilBERT extracts andlearns contextual features from text attributes to acquiremore information from text data. The extracted contextualfeatures are combined with the “key features” of the dataset and used to perform the final classification. Thestudy explored different experimental setups with various classifiers to evaluate the model’s performance. Theexperimental results show that the proposed framework outperforms the latest techniques for classifying terroristattacks with an accuracy of 98.7% using a combined feature set and extreme gradient boosting classifier.展开更多

文摘This paper proposes a novel open set recognition method,the Spatial Distribution Feature Extraction Network(SDFEN),to address the problem of electromagnetic signal recognition in an open environment.The spatial distribution feature extraction layer in SDFEN replaces convolutional output neural networks with the spatial distribution features that focus more on inter-sample information by incorporating class center vectors.The designed hybrid loss function considers both intra-class distance and inter-class distance,thereby enhancing the similarity among samples of the same class and increasing the dissimilarity between samples of different classes during training.Consequently,this method allows unknown classes to occupy a larger space in the feature space.This reduces the possibility of overlap with known class samples and makes the boundaries between known and unknown samples more distinct.Additionally,the feature comparator threshold can be used to reject unknown samples.For signal open set recognition,seven methods,including the proposed method,are applied to two kinds of electromagnetic signal data:modulation signal and real-world emitter.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the other six methods overall in a simulated open environment.Specifically,compared to the state-of-the-art Openmax method,the novel method achieves up to 8.87%and 5.25%higher micro-F-measures,respectively.

文摘Biometric recognition is a widely used technology for user authentication.In the application of this technology,biometric security and recognition accuracy are two important issues that should be considered.In terms of biometric security,cancellable biometrics is an effective technique for protecting biometric data.Regarding recognition accuracy,feature representation plays a significant role in the performance and reliability of cancellable biometric systems.How to design good feature representations for cancellable biometrics is a challenging topic that has attracted a great deal of attention from the computer vision community,especially from researchers of cancellable biometrics.Feature extraction and learning in cancellable biometrics is to find suitable feature representations with a view to achieving satisfactory recognition performance,while the privacy of biometric data is protected.This survey informs the progress,trend and challenges of feature extraction and learning for cancellable biometrics,thus shedding light on the latest developments and future research of this area.
文摘Cleats are the dominant micro-fracture network controlling the macro-mechanical behavior of coal.Improved understanding of the spatial characteristics of cleat networks is therefore important to the coal mining industry.Discrete fracture networks(DFNs)are increasingly used in engineering analyses to spatially model fractures at various scales.The reliability of coal DFNs largely depends on the confidence in the input cleat statistics.Estimates of these parameters can be made from image-based three-dimensional(3D)characterization of coal cleats using X-ray micro-computed tomography(m CT).One key step in this process,after cleat extraction,is the separation of individual cleats,without which the cleats are a connected network and statistics for different cleat sets cannot be measured.In this paper,a feature extraction-based image processing method is introduced to identify and separate distinct cleat groups from 3D X-ray m CT images.Kernels(filters)representing explicit cleat features of coal are built and cleat separation is successfully achieved by convolutional operations on 3D coal images.The new method is applied to a coal specimen with 80 mm in diameter and 100 mm in length acquired from an Anglo American Steelmaking Coal mine in the Bowen Basin,Queensland,Australia.It is demonstrated that the new method produces reliable cleat separation capable of defining individual cleats and preserving 3D topology after separation.Bedding-parallel fractures are also identified and separated,which has his-torically been challenging to delineate and rarely reported.A variety of cleat/fracture statistics is measured which not only can quantitatively characterize the cleat/fracture system but also can be used for DFN modeling.Finally,variability and heterogeneity with respect to the core axis are investigated.Significant heterogeneity is observed and suggests that the representative elementary volume(REV)of the cleat groups for engineering purposes may be a complex problem requiring careful consideration.
文摘Maintaining a steady power supply requires accurate forecasting of solar irradiance,since clean energy resources do not provide steady power.The existing forecasting studies have examined the limited effects of weather conditions on solar radiation such as temperature and precipitation utilizing convolutional neural network(CNN),but no comprehensive study has been conducted on concentrations of air pollutants along with weather conditions.This paper proposes a hybrid approach based on deep learning,expanding the feature set by adding new air pollution concentrations,and ranking these features to select and reduce their size to improve efficiency.In order to improve the accuracy of feature selection,a maximum-dependency and minimum-redundancy(mRMR)criterion is applied to the constructed feature space to identify and rank the features.The combination of air pollution data with weather conditions data has enabled the prediction of solar irradiance with a higher accuracy.An evaluation of the proposed approach is conducted in Istanbul over 12 months for 43791 discrete times,with the main purpose of analyzing air data,including particular matter(PM10 and PM25),carbon monoxide(CO),nitric oxide(NOX),nitrogen dioxide(NO_(2)),ozone(O₃),sulfur dioxide(SO_(2))using a CNN,a long short-term memory network(LSTM),and MRMR feature extraction.Compared with the benchmark models with root mean square error(RMSE)results of 76.2,60.3,41.3,32.4,there is a significant improvement with the RMSE result of 5.536.This hybrid model presented here offers high prediction accuracy,a wider feature set,and a novel approach based on air concentrations combined with weather conditions for solar irradiance prediction.

文摘Addressing the challenges posed by the nonlinear and non-stationary vibrations in rotating machinery,where weak fault characteristic signals hinder accurate fault state representation,we propose a novel feature extraction method that combines the Flexible Analytic Wavelet Transform(FAWT)with Nonlinear Quantum Permutation Entropy.FAWT,leveraging fractional orders and arbitrary scaling and translation factors,exhibits superior translational invariance and adjustable fundamental oscillatory characteristics.This flexibility enables FAWT to provide well-suited wavelet shapes,effectively matching subtle fault components and avoiding performance degradation associated with fixed frequency partitioning and low-oscillation bases in detecting weak faults.In our approach,gearbox vibration signals undergo FAWT to obtain sub-bands.Quantum theory is then introduced into permutation entropy to propose Nonlinear Quantum Permutation Entropy,a feature that more accurately characterizes the operational state of vibration simulation signals.The nonlinear quantum permutation entropy extracted from sub-bands is utilized to characterize the operating state of rotating machinery.A comprehensive analysis of vibration signals from rolling bearings and gearboxes validates the feasibility of the proposed method.Comparative assessments with parameters derived from traditional permutation entropy,sample entropy,wavelet transform(WT),and empirical mode decomposition(EMD)underscore the superior effectiveness of this approach in fault detection and classification for rotating machinery.
文摘One of the biggest dangers to society today is terrorism, where attacks have become one of the most significantrisks to international peace and national security. Big data, information analysis, and artificial intelligence (AI) havebecome the basis for making strategic decisions in many sensitive areas, such as fraud detection, risk management,medical diagnosis, and counter-terrorism. However, there is still a need to assess how terrorist attacks are related,initiated, and detected. For this purpose, we propose a novel framework for classifying and predicting terroristattacks. The proposed framework posits that neglected text attributes included in the Global Terrorism Database(GTD) can influence the accuracy of the model’s classification of terrorist attacks, where each part of the datacan provide vital information to enrich the ability of classifier learning. Each data point in a multiclass taxonomyhas one or more tags attached to it, referred as “related tags.” We applied machine learning classifiers to classifyterrorist attack incidents obtained from the GTD. A transformer-based technique called DistilBERT extracts andlearns contextual features from text attributes to acquiremore information from text data. The extracted contextualfeatures are combined with the “key features” of the dataset and used to perform the final classification. Thestudy explored different experimental setups with various classifiers to evaluate the model’s performance. Theexperimental results show that the proposed framework outperforms the latest techniques for classifying terroristattacks with an accuracy of 98.7% using a combined feature set and extreme gradient boosting classifier.

文摘Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer among women,and diagnosing it early is vital for successful treatment.The examination of images captured during biopsies plays an important role in determining whether a patient has cancer or not.However,the stochastic patterns,varying intensities of colors,and the large sizes of these images make it challenging to identify and mark malignant regions in them.Against this backdrop,this study proposes an approach to the pixel categorization based on the genetic algorithm(GA)and principal component analysis(PCA).The spatial features of the images were extracted using various filters,and the most prevalent ones are selected using the GA and fed into the classifiers for pixel-level categorization.Three classifiers—random forest(RF),decision tree(DT),and extra tree(ET)—were used in the proposed model.The parameters of all modelswere separately tuned,and their performance was tested.The results show that the features extracted by using the GA+PCA in the proposed model are influential and reliable for pixel-level classification in service of the image annotation and tumor identification.Further,an image from benign,malignant,and normal classes was randomly selected and used to test the proposed model.The proposed modelGA-PCA-DT has delivered accuracies between 0.99 to 1.0 on a reduced feature set.The predicted pixel sets were also compared with their respective ground-truth values to assess the overall performance of the method on two metrics—the universal image quality index(UIQI)and the structural similarity index(SSI).Both quality measures delivered excellent results.
文摘Photovoltaic(PV)boards are a perfect way to create eco-friendly power from daylight.The defects in the PV panels are caused by various conditions;such defective PV panels need continuous monitoring.The recent development of PV panel monitoring systems provides a modest and viable approach to monitoring and managing the condition of the PV plants.In general,conventional procedures are used to identify the faulty modules earlier and to avoid declines in power generation.The existing deep learning architectures provide the required output to predict the faulty PV panels with less accuracy and a more time-consuming process.To increase the accuracy and to reduce the processing time,a new Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)architecture is required.Hence,in the present work,a new Real-time Multi Variant Deep learning Model(RMVDM)architecture is proposed,and it extracts the image features and classifies the defects in PV panels quickly with high accuracy.The defects that arise in the PV panels are identified by the CNN based RMVDM using RGB images.The biggest difference between CNN and its predecessors is that CNN automatically extracts the image features without any help from a person.The technique is quantitatively assessed and compared with existing faulty PV board identification approaches on the large real-time dataset.The results show that 98%of the accuracy and recall values in the fault detection and classification process.

文摘The performance of a speech emotion recognition(SER)system is heavily influenced by the efficacy of its feature extraction techniques.The study was designed to advance the field of SER by optimizing feature extraction tech-niques,specifically through the incorporation of high-resolution Mel-spectrograms and the expedited calculation of Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients(MFCC).This initiative aimed to refine the system’s accuracy by identifying and mitigating the shortcomings commonly found in current approaches.Ultimately,the primary objective was to elevate both the intricacy and effectiveness of our SER model,with a focus on augmenting its proficiency in the accurate identification of emotions in spoken language.The research employed a dual-strategy approach for feature extraction.Firstly,a rapid computation technique for MFCC was implemented and integrated with a Bi-LSTM layer to optimize the encoding of MFCC features.Secondly,a pretrained ResNet model was utilized in conjunction with feature Stats pooling and dense layers for the effective encoding of Mel-spectrogram attributes.These two sets of features underwent separate processing before being combined in a Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)outfitted with a dense layer,with the aim of enhancing their representational richness.The model was rigorously evaluated using two prominent databases:CMU-MOSEI and RAVDESS.Notable findings include an accuracy rate of 93.2%on the CMU-MOSEI database and 95.3%on the RAVDESS database.Such exceptional performance underscores the efficacy of this innovative approach,which not only meets but also exceeds the accuracy benchmarks established by traditional models in the field of speech emotion recognition.

文摘The high bandwidth and low latency of 6G network technology enable the successful application of monocular 3D object detection on vehicle platforms.Monocular 3D-object-detection-based Pseudo-LiDAR is a low-cost,lowpower solution compared to LiDAR solutions in the field of autonomous driving.However,this technique has some problems,i.e.,(1)the poor quality of generated Pseudo-LiDAR point clouds resulting from the nonlinear error distribution of monocular depth estimation and(2)the weak representation capability of point cloud features due to the neglected global geometric structure features of point clouds existing in LiDAR-based 3D detection networks.Therefore,we proposed a Pseudo-LiDAR confidence sampling strategy and a hierarchical geometric feature extraction module for monocular 3D object detection.We first designed a point cloud confidence sampling strategy based on a 3D Gaussian distribution to assign small confidence to the points with great error in depth estimation and filter them out according to the confidence.Then,we present a hierarchical geometric feature extraction module by aggregating the local neighborhood features and a dual transformer to capture the global geometric features in the point cloud.Finally,our detection framework is based on Point-Voxel-RCNN(PV-RCNN)with high-quality Pseudo-LiDAR and enriched geometric features as input.From the experimental results,our method achieves satisfactory results in monocular 3D object detection.

文摘Machine learning tasks such as image classification need to select the features that can describe the image well.The image has individual features and common features,and they are interdependent.If only the individual features of the image are emphasized,the neural network is prone to overfitting.If only the common features of images are emphasized,neural networks will not be able to adapt to diversified learning environments.In order to better integrate individual features and common features,based on skeleton and edge individual features extraction,this paper designed a mixed feature extraction method based on reso-nancefiltering,named resonance layer.Resonance layer is in front of the neural network input layer,using K3M algorithm to extract image skeleton,using the Canny algorithm to extract image border,using resonancefiltering to reconstruct training image byfiltering image noise,through the common features of the images in the training set and efficient expression of individual characteristics to improve the efficiency of feature extraction of neural network,so as to improve the accuracy of neural network prediction.Taking the fully connected neural net-work and LeNet-5 neural networks for example,the experiment on handwritten digits database shows that the proposed mixed feature extraction method can improve the accuracy of training whilefiltering out part of image noise data.

文摘Recently,the importance of data analysis has increased significantly due to the rapid data increase.In particular,vehicle communication data,considered a significant challenge in Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS),has spatiotemporal characteristics and many missing values.High missing values in data lead to the decreased predictive performance of models.Existing missing value imputation models ignore the topology of transportation net-works due to the structural connection of road networks,although physical distances are close in spatiotemporal image data.Additionally,the learning process of missing value imputation models requires complete data,but there are limitations in securing complete vehicle communication data.This study proposes a missing value imputation model based on adversarial autoencoder using spatiotemporal feature extraction to address these issues.The proposed method replaces missing values by reflecting spatiotemporal characteristics of transportation data using temporal convolution and spatial convolution.Experimental results show that the proposed model has the lowest error rate of 5.92%,demonstrating excellent predictive accuracy.Through this,it is possible to solve the data sparsity problem and improve traffic safety by showing superior predictive performance.
文摘To solve the problems of low precision of weak feature extraction,heavy reliance on labor and low efficiency of weak feature extraction in X-ray weld detection image of ultra-high voltage(UHV)equipment key parts,an automatic feature extraction algorithm is proposed.Firstly,the original weld image is denoised while retaining the characteristic information of weak defects by the proposed monostable stochastic resonance method.Then,binarization is achieved by combining Laplacian edge detection and Otsu threshold segmentation.Finally,the automatic identification of weld defect area is realized based on the sequential traversal of binary tree.Several characteristic analysis dimensions are established for weld defects of UHV key parts,including defect area,perimeter,slenderness ratio,duty cycle,etc.The experiment using theweld detection image of the actual production site shows that the proposedmethod can effectively extract theweak feature information ofweld defects and further provide reference for decision-making.

文摘Augmented solar images were used to research the adaptability of four representative image extraction and matching algorithms in space weather domain.These include the scale-invariant feature transform algorithm,speeded-up robust features algorithm,binary robust invariant scalable keypoints algorithm,and oriented fast and rotated brief algorithm.The performance of these algorithms was estimated in terms of matching accuracy,feature point richness,and running time.The experiment result showed that no algorithm achieved high accuracy while keeping low running time,and all algorithms are not suitable for image feature extraction and matching of augmented solar images.To solve this problem,an improved method was proposed by using two-frame matching to utilize the accuracy advantage of the scale-invariant feature transform algorithm and the speed advantage of the oriented fast and rotated brief algorithm.Furthermore,our method and the four representative algorithms were applied to augmented solar images.Our application experiments proved that our method achieved a similar high recognition rate to the scale-invariant feature transform algorithm which is significantly higher than other algorithms.Our method also obtained a similar low running time to the oriented fast and rotated brief algorithm,which is significantly lower than other algorithms.
