Extracting interesting patterns and rules from data sets composed of images and associated ground data can be of importance in object identification, community planning, resource discovery and other areas. In this paper, a data field is presented to express the observed spatial objects and conduct behavior mining on them. First, most of the important aspects are discussed on behavior mining and its implications for the future of data mining. Furthermore, an ideal framework of the behavior mining system is proposed in the network environment. Second, the model of behavior mining is given on the observed spatial objects, including the objects described by the first feature data field and the main feature data field by means of the potential function. Finally, a case study about object identification in public is given and analyzed. The experimental results show that the new model is feasible in behavior mining.展开更多

Firstly, the categorygiven representative images are chosen through clustering to be templates, and the local and spatial information of template are ex- tracted and generalized as the template feature. At the same time, the codebook dictionary of local contour is also built up. Secondly, based on the codebook dictionary, sliding-window mechanism and the vote algorithm are used to select initial candidate object win- dows. Lastly, the final object windows are got from initial candidate windows based on local and spatial structure feature matching. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach is able to consistently identify and accurately detect the objects with better performance than the existing methods.展开更多

To address this problem, this paper introduces a novel image retrieval mechanism based on the family filtration in object region. First, we supply an object region by selecting a rectangle in a query image such that system returns a ranked list of images that contain the same object, retrieved from the corpus based on 100 images, as a result of the first rank. To further improve retrieval performance, we add an efficient spatial consistency stage, which is named family-based spatial consistency filtration, to re-rank the results returned by the first rank. We elaborate the performance of the retrieval system by some experiments on the dataset selected from the key frames of "TREC Video Retrieval Evaluation 2005 (TRECVID2005)". The results of experiments show that the retrieval mechanism proposed by us has vast major effect on the retrieval quality. The paper also verifies the stability of the retrieval mechanism by increasing the number of images from 100 to 2000 and realizes generalized retrieval with the object outside the dataset.展开更多

In most cases, the cause of misalignment is the cartographic variation of objects forming features in the datasets. Either this could be due to actual changes on ground, collection, or storage approaches used leading to overlapping or openings between features. In this paper, we present an alignment method that uses adjustment algorithms to update the geometry of features within a dataset or complementary adjacent datasets so that they can align to achieve perfect integration. The method identifies every unique spatial instance in datasets and their spatial points that define all their geometry;the differences are compared and used to compute the alignment parameters. This provides a uniform geo-spatial features’ alignment taking into consideration changes in the different datasets being integrated without affecting the topology and attributes.展开更多

文摘由于低照度图像具有对比度低、细节丢失严重、噪声大等缺点,现有的目标检测算法对低照度图像的检测效果不理想.为此,本文提出一种结合空间感知注意力机制和多尺度特征融合(Spatial-aware Attention Mechanism and Multi-Scale Feature Fusion,SAM-MSFF)的低照度目标检测方法 .该方法首先通过多尺度交互内存金字塔融合多尺度特征,增强低照度图像特征中的有效信息,并设置内存向量存储样本的特征,捕获样本之间的潜在关联性;然后,引入空间感知注意力机制获取特征在空间域的长距离上下文信息和局部信息,从而增强低照度图像中的目标特征,抑制背景信息和噪声的干扰;最后,利用多感受野增强模块扩张特征的感受野,对具有不同感受野的特征进行分组重加权计算,使检测网络根据输入的多尺度信息自适应地调整感受野的大小.在ExDark数据集上进行实验,本文方法的平均精度(mean Average Precision,mAP)达到77.04%,比现有的主流目标检测方法提高2.6%~14.34%.
