The method adopts the overall design of backbone network, detection network and algorithmic parameter optimisation method, completes the model training on the self-constructed occlusion target dataset, and adopts the multi-scale perception method for target detection. The HNM algorithm is used to screen positive and negative samples during the training process, and the NMS algorithm is used to post-process the prediction results during the detection process to improve the detection efficiency. After experimental validation, the obtained model has the multi-class average predicted value (mAP) of the dataset. It has general advantages over traditional target detection methods. The detection time of a single target on FDDB dataset is 39 ms, which can meet the need of real-time target detection. In addition, the project team has successfully deployed the method into substations and put it into use in many places in Beijing, which is important for achieving the anomaly of occlusion target detection.展开更多

If the kinematic likelihoods are similar for different closely spaced targets, there is ambiguity in using the kinematic information alone; the correct association probability will decrease in conventional joint probabilistic data association algorithm and track coalescence will occur easily. A modified algorithm of joint probabilistic data association with classification-aided is presented, which avoids track coalescence when tracking multiple neighboring targets. Firstly, an identification matrix is defined, which is used to simplify validation matrix to decrease computational complexity. Then, target class information is integrated into the data association process. Performance comparisons with and without the use of class information in JPDA are presented on multiple closely spaced maneuvering targets tracking problem. Simulation results quantify the benefits of classification-aided JPDA for improved multiple targets tracking, especially in the presence of association uncertainty in the kinematic measurement and target maneuvering. Simulation results indicate that the algorithm is valid.展开更多

The static part of data association uses one FGA to determine both the lists ofcomposite measurements and the solutions of m-best S-D assignment. In the dynamic part of dataassociation, the results of the m-best S-D assignment are then used in turn, with a Kalman filterstate estimator, in a multi-population FGA-based dynamic 2D assignment algorithm to estimate thestates of the moving targets over time. Such an assignment-based data association algorithm isdemonstrated on a simulated passive sensor track formation and maintenance problem. The simulationresults show its feasibility in multi-sensor multi-target tracking. Moreover, algorithm developmentand real-time problems are briefly discussed.展开更多

When there is a moving obstacle, the control objectives are to make the agents track a moving target and to avoid collisions among agents. First, without considering the input constraints, a novel distributed controller can be obtained based on the potential function. Second, at each sampling time, the control algorithm is optimized. Furthermore, to solve the problem that agents cannot effectively avoid the obstacles in dynamic environment where the obstacles are moving, a new velocity repulsive potential is designed. One advantage of the designed control algorithm is that each agent only requires local knowledge of its neighboring agents. Finally, simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.展开更多

How the number of subcarriers in- fluences the estimation accuracy is illustrated by considering the joint Cramer-Rao bound and the mean square error of the maxi- mum likelihood estimate. The non-coherent MIMO radar ambiguity function with multiple subcarriers is developed and investigated by changing the number of subcarriers, the pulse width and the frequency spacing between adjacent subcarriers. The numerical results show that more subcarriers mean more accurate estimates, higher localization resolution, and larger pulse width results in a worse performance of target location estimation, while the fre- quency spacing affects target location estimation little.展开更多

First, this problem is formulated as a variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP), called the dynamic-constrained TSP with neighborhoods (DCT- SPN). Then, a hierarchical hybrid approach, which partitions the planning algorithm into a roadmap planning layer and an optimal control layer, is proposed to solve the DCTSPN. In the roadmap planning layer, a novel algorithm based on an updatable proba- bilistic roadmap (PRM) is presented, which operates by randomly sampling a finite set of vehicle states from continuous state space in order to reduce the complicated trajectory planning problem to planning on a finite directed graph. In the optimal control layer, a collision-free state-to-state trajectory planner based on the Gauss pseudospectral method is developed, which can generate both dynamically feasible and optimal flight trajectories. The entire process of solving a DCTSPN consists of two phases. First, in the offline preprocessing phase, the algorithm constructs a PRM, and then converts the original problem into a standard asymmet- ric TSP (ATSP). Second, in the online querying phase, the costs of directed edges in PRM are updated first, and a fast heuristic searching algorithm is then used to solve the ATSP. Numerical experiments indicate that the algorithm proposed in this paper can generate both feasible and near-optimal solutions quickly for online purposes.展开更多

This method can separate multi-targets with similar velocities,and there is no strict limit on the rotational state of the targets. Firstly,the motion compensation for the completely multi-targets echo is carried out and the coarse image can be achieved with the Range-Doppler (RD) technique. Then a series of image processing methods and image segmentation processing are used to separate the echo data of each mono-target. At last,the image with high quality of each target can be achieved with the RD technique and the Range-Instantaneous-Doppler (RID) technique. ISAR imaging results of simulated and measured data validate the validity of the proposed approach.展开更多

The numerical results show that more subcarriers mean more accurate estimates, higher localization resolution, and larger pulse width results in a worse performance of target location estimation, while the fre- quency spacing affects target location estimation little.
文摘This paper presents augmented input estimation(AIE)for multiple maneuvering target tracking.Multi-target tracking(MTT)is based on two main parts,data association and estimation.In data association(DA),the best observations are assigned to the considered tracks.In real conditions,the number of observations is more than targets and also locations of observations are often so scattered that the association between targets and observations cannot be done simply.In this case,for general MTT problems with unknown numbers of targets,we present a Markov chain Monte-Carlo DA(MCMCDA)algorithm that approximates the optimal Bayesian filter with low complexity in computations.After DA,estimation and tracking should be done.Since in general cases,many targets can have maneuvering motions,then AIE is proposed to cover both the non-maneuvering and maneuvering parts of motion and the maneuver detection procedure is eliminated.This model with an input estimation(IE)approach is a special augmentation in the state space model which considers both the state vector and the unknown input vector as a new augmented state vector.Some comparisons based on the Monte-Carlo simulations are also made to evaluate the performances of the proposed method and other older methods in MTT.
文摘This paper considers the problem of generating a flight trajectory for a single fixed-wing unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) performing an air-to-surface multi-target attack (A/SMTA) mission using satellite-guided bombs. First, this problem is formulated as a variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP), called the dynamic-constrained TSP with neighborhoods (DCT- SPN). Then, a hierarchical hybrid approach, which partitions the planning algorithm into a roadmap planning layer and an optimal control layer, is proposed to solve the DCTSPN. In the roadmap planning layer, a novel algorithm based on an updatable proba- bilistic roadmap (PRM) is presented, which operates by randomly sampling a finite set of vehicle states from continuous state space in order to reduce the complicated trajectory planning problem to planning on a finite directed graph. In the optimal control layer, a collision-free state-to-state trajectory planner based on the Gauss pseudospectral method is developed, which can generate both dynamically feasible and optimal flight trajectories. The entire process of solving a DCTSPN consists of two phases. First, in the offline preprocessing phase, the algorithm constructs a PRM, and then converts the original problem into a standard asymmet- ric TSP (ATSP). Second, in the online querying phase, the costs of directed edges in PRM are updated first, and a fast heuristic searching algorithm is then used to solve the ATSP. Numerical experiments indicate that the algorithm proposed in this paper can generate both feasible and near-optimal solutions quickly for online purposes.

文摘This paper presents a newmulti-targets inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging approach via the image segmentation processing. This method can separate multi-targets with similar velocities,and there is no strict limit on the rotational state of the targets. Firstly,the motion compensation for the completely multi-targets echo is carried out and the coarse image can be achieved with the Range-Doppler (RD) technique. Then a series of image processing methods and image segmentation processing are used to separate the echo data of each mono-target. At last,the image with high quality of each target can be achieved with the RD technique and the Range-Instantaneous-Doppler (RID) technique. ISAR imaging results of simulated and measured data validate the validity of the proposed approach.

文摘OBJECTIVE Bisbenzylisoquinoline(BBI)alkaloids have extensive pharmacological functions.The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying the antidepressant-like action of 7-O-ethylfangchinoline(YH-200)in mice.METHODS Male ICR mice were used in the forced swimming(FST)and tail suspension tests(TST).RESULTS YH-200(60mg·kg-1,ig)decreased the immobility time in FST and TST,and prolonged the latency to immobility in FST.YH-200 revealed more potent anti-immobility activity than its BBI derivative tetrandrine.In addition,the pretreatment of mice with prazosin(1mg·kg-1,ip,anα1-adrenoceptor antagonist),propranolol(2 mg·kg-1,ip,a nonselectiveβ-adrenoceptor antagonist),SCH23390(0.05mg·kg-1,ip,a dopamine D1/D5 receptor antagonist),haloperidol(0.2mg·kg-1,ip,a dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist)and NBQX(10mg·kg-1,ip,an AMPA receptor antagonist)prevented the antidepressant-like effect of YH-200(60mg·kg-1,ig)in FST.Besides that,the pretreatment of mice with yohimbine(1mg·kg-1,ip,an α2 adrenoceptor antagonist)augmented the antidepressant-like effect of YH-200(30mg·kg-1,ig)in FST.After 14 dadministration,YH-200(30 and 60mg·kg-1,ig)did not develop drug resistance,but the potency was strengthened,meanwhile,it did not influence the changes in mice body weight.CONCLUSION YH-200 may possess the therapeutic potential for the treatment of depression via the multi-targets including the noradrenergic(α1,α2 and β-adrenoceptors),dopaminergic(D1/D5 and D2/D3receptors)and AMPAergic systems.
