Single Epoch GPS Deformation Signals Extraction and Gross Error Detection Technique Based on Wavelet Transform

Wavelet theory is efficient as an adequate tool for analyzing single epoch GPS deformation signal. Wavelet analysis technique on gross error detection and recovery is advanced. Criteria of wavelet function choosing and Mallat decomposition levels decision are discussed. An effective deformation signal extracting method is proposed, that is wavelet noise reduction technique considering gross error recovery, which combines wavelet multi-resolution gross error detection results. Time position recognizing of gross errors and their repairing performance are realized. In the experiment, compactly supported orthogonal wavelet with short support block is more efficient than the longer one when discerning gross errors, which can obtain more finely analyses. And the shape of discerned gross error of short support wavelet is simpler than that of the longer one. Meanwhile, the time scale is easier to identify.

LDNet:structure-focused lane detection based on line deformation

Lane detection is a fundamental necessary task for autonomous driving.The conventional methods mainly treat lane detection as a pixel-wise segmentation problem,which suffers from the challenge of uncontrollable driving road environments and needs post-processing to abstract the lane parameters.In this work,a series of lines are used to represent traffic lanes and a novel line deformation network(LDNet) is proposed to directly predict the coordinates of lane line points.Inspired by the dynamic behavior of classic snake algorithms,LDNet uses a neural network to iteratively deform an initial lane line to match the lane markings.To capture the long and discontinuous structures of lane lines,1 D convolution in LDNet is used for structured feature learning along the lane lines.Based on LDNet,a two-stage pipeline is developed for lane marking detection:(1) initial lane line proposal to predict a list of lane line candidates,and(2) lane line deformation to obtain the coordinates of lane line points.Experiments show that the proposed approach achieves competitive performances on the TuSimple dataset while being efficient for real-time applications on a GTX 1650 GPU.In particular,the accuracy of LDNet with the annotated starting and ending points is up to99.45%,which indicates the improved initial lane line proposal method can further enhance the performance of LDNet.

A Simple and Effective Surface Defect Detection Method of Power Line Insulators for Difficult Small Objects

Insulator defect detection plays a vital role in maintaining the secure operation of power systems.To address the issues of the difficulty of detecting small objects and missing objects due to the small scale,variable scale,and fuzzy edge morphology of insulator defects,we construct an insulator dataset with 1600 samples containing flashovers and breakages.Then a simple and effective surface defect detection method of power line insulators for difficult small objects is proposed.Firstly,a high-resolution featuremap is introduced and a small object prediction layer is added so that the model can detect tiny objects.Secondly,a simplified adaptive spatial feature fusion(SASFF)module is introduced to perform cross-scale spatial fusion to improve adaptability to variable multi-scale features.Finally,we propose an enhanced deformable attention mechanism(EDAM)module.By integrating a gating activation function,the model is further inspired to learn a small number of critical sampling points near reference points.And the module can improve the perception of object morphology.The experimental results indicate that concerning the dataset of flashover and breakage defects,this method improves the performance of YOLOv5,YOLOv7,and YOLOv8.In practical application,it can simply and effectively improve the precision of power line insulator defect detection and reduce missing detection for difficult small objects.

Pre-training transformer with dual-branch context content module for table detection in document images

Background Document images such as statistical reports and scientific journals are widely used in information technology.Accurate detection of table areas in document images is an essential prerequisite for tasks such as information extraction.However,because of the diversity in the shapes and sizes of tables,existing table detection methods adapted from general object detection algorithms,have not yet achieved satisfactory results.Incorrect detection results might lead to the loss of critical information.Methods Therefore,we propose a novel end-to-end trainable deep network combined with a self-supervised pretraining transformer for feature extraction to minimize incorrect detections.To better deal with table areas of different shapes and sizes,we added a dualbranch context content attention module(DCCAM)to high-dimensional features to extract context content information,thereby enhancing the network's ability to learn shape features.For feature fusion at different scales,we replaced the original 3×3 convolution with a multilayer residual module,which contains enhanced gradient flow information to improve the feature representation and extraction capability.Results We evaluated our method on public document datasets and compared it with previous methods,which achieved state-of-the-art results in terms of evaluation metrics such as recall and F1-score.https://github.com/Yong Z-Lee/TD-DCCAM.

Traffic Accident Detection Based on Deformable Frustum Proposal and Adaptive Space Segmentation

Road accident detection plays an important role in abnormal scene reconstruction for Intelligent Transportation Systems and abnormal events warning for autonomous driving.This paper presents a novel 3D object detector and adaptive space partitioning algorithm to infer traffic accidents quantitatively.Using 2D region proposals in an RGB image,this method generates deformable frustums based on point cloud for each 2D region proposal and then frustum-wisely extracts features based on the farthest point sampling network(FPS-Net)and feature extraction network(FE-Net).Subsequently,the encoder-decoder network(ED-Net)implements 3D-oriented bounding box(OBB)regression.Meanwhile,the adaptive least square regression(ALSR)method is proposed to split 3D OBB.Finally,the reduced OBB intersection test is carried out to detect traffic accidents via separating surface theorem(SST).In the experiments of KITTI benchmark,our proposed 3D object detector outperforms other state-of-theartmethods.Meanwhile,collision detection algorithm achieves the satisfactory performance of 91.8%accuracy on our SHTA dataset.

Research on the detecting methods of singularity in deformation signal based on two kinds of wavelet entropy

There are various influencing factors that affect the deformation observation, and deformation signals show differ- ent characteristics under different scales. Wavelet analysis possesses multi-scale property, and the information entropy has great representational capability to the complexity of information. By hamming window to the wavelet coefficients and windowed wavelet energy obtained by multi-resolution analysis （MRA）, it can be achieved to measure the wavelet time entropy （WTE） and wavelet energy entropy （WEE）. The paper established deformation signals, selected the parameters, and compared the sin- gularity detection ability and anti-noise ability of two kinds of wavelet entropy and applied them to the singularity detection at the GPS continuously operating reference stations. It is shown that the WTE performs well in weak singularity information de- tection in finite frequency components signals and the WEE is more suitable for detecting the singularity in the signals with complex, strong background noise.

Multiple Kalman filters model with shaping filter GPS real-time deformation analysis

In order to detect the deformation in real-time of the GPS time series and improve its reliability, the multiple Kalman filters model with shaping filter was proposed. Two problems were solved: firstly, because the GPS real-time deformation series with a high sampling rate contain coloured noise, the multiple Kalman filter model requires the white noise, and the multiple Kalman filters model is augmented by a shaping filter in order to reduce the colored noise; secondly, the multiple Kalman filters model with shaping filter can detect the deformation epoch in real-time and improve the quality of GPS measurements for the real-time deformation applications. Based on the comparisons of the applications in different GPS time series with different models, the advantages of the proposed model were illustrated. The proposed model can reduce the colored noise, detect the smaller changes, and improve the precision of the detected deformation epoch.

A Method of Measuring Large Displacement and Deformation with High Precision *

A CCD position detecting system measuring the displacement and deformation of structure is presented. The measure method takes advantage of the position detecting technique based on digital image processing. A bright spot is pegged on the object to be measured and imaged to the target of CCD camera through a telescopic lens. The CCD target converts the optical signal to equivalent electric signal. The video frequency signal is digitized to an array of 512×512 pixels by the analog to digital converter (ADC), then transmitted to the computer. The computer controls the data acquisition, conducts image processing and detects the location of the target spot. Comparing the current position with the original position of the spot, the displacement of object is obtained. With the aid of analysis software, the system can achieve the resolution of 0 01 mm in the 6 m distance from the object to the point of observation. To meet the need of practice, the measuring distance can be extended to 100 m or even farther.

Using LBG quantization for particle-based collision detection algorithm

Most collision detection algorithms can be efficiently used only with solid and rigid objects, for instance, Hierarchical methods which must have their bounding representation recalculated every time deformation occurs. An alternative algorithm using particle-based method is then proposed which can detect the collision among non-rigid deformable polygonal models. However, the original particle-based collision detection algorithm might not be sufficient enough in some situations due to the improper particle dispersion. Therefore, this research presents an improved algorithm which provides a particle to detect in each separated area so that particles always covered all over the object. The surface partitioning can be efficiently performed by using LBG quantization since it can classify object vertices into several groups base on a number of factors as required. A particle is then assigned to move between vertices in a group by the attractive forces received from other particles on neighbouring objects. Collision is detected when the distance between a pair of corresponding particles becomes very small. Lastly, the proposed algo- rithm has been implemented to show that collision detection can be conducted in real-time.

A new approach for distinguishing different deformation trend blocks with displacement observations

The process for dividing the different deformation trend blocks with displacement observations includes three steps. They are datum detection, block scope told part and anomalous deformations detection in blocks. The three steps are implemented by Quasi-Accurate Detection(QUAD) in the paper. In the previous two steps, the prelimi-nary selection for Quasi-Accurate Observations (QAOs) is key. The preliminary selection is according to the size of deformation displacement for datum detection and according to the direction of deformation for block scope told part. At last through an example, each implementation process is introduced simply and the detection effect of QUAD is compared with that of the robust estimation (Huber) and the statistic test. The result indicates that the three steps can be implemented successfully with QUAD and that the anomalous deformations in blocks can be detected, but the steps of the datum detection and block scope told part are failed by robust estimation. The detec-tions of three steps are failure by the statistic test. The results show that the QUAD has the virtues that the location of gross errors is much accurate and the breakdown point is higher than the other two methods.

Application of wavelet analysis to crustal deformation data processing

The time-frequency analysis and anomaly detection of wavelet transformation make the method irresistibly advan- tageous in non-stable signal processing. In the paper, the two characteristics are analyzed and demonstrated with synthetic signal. By applying wavelet transformation to deformation data processing, we find that about 4 months before strong earthquakes, several deformation stations near the epicenter received at the same time the abnormal signal with the same frequency and the period from several days to more than ten days. The GPS observation sta- tions near the epicenter all received the abnormal signal whose period is from 3 months to half a year. These ab- normal signals are possibly earthquake precursors.

Research on Facial Fatigue Detection of Drivers with Multi-feature Fusion

In order to solve the shortcomings of current fatigue detection methods such as low accuracy or poor real-time performance,a fatigue detection method based on multi-feature fusion is proposed.Firstly,the HOG face detection algorithm and KCF target tracking algorithm are integrated and deformable convolutional neural network is introduced to identify the state of extracted eyes and mouth,fast track the detected faces and extract continuous and stable target faces for more efficient extraction.Then the head pose algorithm is introduced to detect the driver’s head in real time and obtain the driver’s head state information.Finally,a multi-feature fusion fatigue detection method is proposed based on the state of the eyes,mouth and head.According to the experimental results,the proposed method can detect the driver’s fatigue state in real time with high accuracy and good robustness compared with the current fatigue detection algorithms.

An Improvement of Pedestrian Detection Method with Multiple Resolutions

In object detection, detecting an object with 100 pixels is substantially different from detecting an object with 10 pixels. Many object detection algorithms assume that the pedestrian scale is fixed during detection, such as the DPM detector. However, detectors often give rise to different detection effects under the circumstance of different scales. If a detector is used to perform pedestrian detection in different scales, the accuracy of pedestrian detection could be improved. A multi-resolution DPM pedestrian detection algorithm is proposed in this paper. During the stage of model training, a resolution factor is added to a set of hidden variables of a latent SVM model. Then, in the stage of detection, a standard DPM model is used for the high resolution objects and a rigid template is adopted in case of the low resolution objects. In our experiments, we find that in case of low resolution objects the detection accuracy of a standard DPM model is lower than that of a rigid template. In Caltech, the omission ratio of a multi-resolution DPM detector is 52% with 1 false positive per image (1FPPI);and the omission ratio rises to 59% (1FPPI) as far as a standard DPM detector is concerned. In the large-scale sample set of Caltech, the omission ratios given by the multi-resolution and the standard DPM detectors are 18% (1FPPI) and 26% (1FPPI), respectively.

Methodology for Road Defect Detection and Administration Based on Mobile Mapping Data

A detailed inspection of roads requires highly detailed spatial data with sufficient precision to deliver an accurate geometry and to describe road defects visually.This paper presents a novel method for the detection of road defects.The input data for road defect detection included point clouds and orthomosaics gathered by mobile mapping technology.The defects were categorized in three major groups with the following geometric primitives:points,lines and polygons.The method suggests the detection of point objects from matched point clouds,panoramic images and ortho photos.Defects were mapped as point,line or polygon geometries,directly derived from orthomosaics and panoramic images.Besides the geometric position of road defects,all objects were assigned to a variety of attributes:defect type,surface material,center-of-gravity,area,length,corresponding image of the defect and degree of damage.A spatial dataset comprising defect values with a matching data type was created to perform the attribute analysis quickly and correctly.The final product is a spatial vector data set,consisting of points,lines and polygons,which contains attributes with further information and geometry.This paper demonstrates that mobile mapping suits a large-scale feature extraction of road infrastructure defects.By its simplicity and flexibility,the presented methodology allows it to be easily adapted to extract further feature types with their attributes.This makes the proposed approach a vital tool for data extraction settings with multiple mobile mapping data analysts,e.g.,offline crowdsourcing.
