In which only measured the high-pass wavelet coefficients of the image but preserved the low-pass wavelet coefficient. Then, fuse the low-pass wavelet coefficients and the measurements of high-pass wavelet coefficient with different schemes. For the reconstruction, by using the minimization of total variation algorithm (TV), high-pass wavelet coefficients could be recovered by the fused measurements. Finally, the fused image could be reconstructed by the inverse wavelet transform. The experiments show the proposed method provides promising fusion performance with a low computational complexity.展开更多

Although many works have been done, most of the existing works focus on the issues of network resource utilization or the quality of experience (QoE) promotion, while the energy efficiency is largely ignored. In this paper, different from previous works, in order to realize the energy efficiency for video transmission in MEC-enhanced 5G networks, we propose a joint caching and transcoding schedule strategy for HTTP adaptive video streaming transmission by taking the caching and transcoding into consideration. We formulate the problem of energy-efficient joint caching and transcoding as an integer programming problem to minimize the system energy consumption. Due to solving the optimization problem brings huge computation complexity, therefore, to make the optimization problem tractable, a heuristic algorithm based on simulated annealing algorithm is proposed to iteratively reach the global optimum solution with a lower complexity and higher accuracy. Finally, numerical simulation results are illustrated to demonstrated that our proposed scheme brings an excellent performance.展开更多

In 5G networks with virtualization, the caching resources deployed by infrastructure providers (InPs) can be abstracted into isolated slices and transparently shared by mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs). In this case, one of the most important issues is how the MVNOs to share the caching resource. To solve this issue, different from previous works, a hierarchical caching architecture that core network and radio access network (RAN) have the caching capability in 5G networks with virtualization is first considered in this paper. Then, we study the problem of hierarchical caching resource sharing for MVNOs, and a competitive game to maximize their expectation revenue based on the oligopoly market model is formulated. As it is a hard problem to find the optimal solution in the hierarchical caching resource sharing problem, we decompose the optimization problem into two independent caching resource sharing problems in RAN and core network, respectively. Then the local optimal solutions are solved and the global Nash equilibrium solution is achieved. Finally, simulation results are illustrated to demonstrate the performance of the proposed scheme.展开更多

Our model consists of three layers: the input image layer, the graphical representation layer of the computed 2D atomic regions and 3-degree junctions (such as T or arrow junctions), and the 2.1D sketch layer. There are two types of vertices in the graphical representation of the 2D entities: (i) regions, which act as the vertices found in traditional MRF, and (ii) address variables assigned to the terminators decomposed from the 3-degree junctions, which are a new type of vertices for the mixed MRF. We formulate the inference problem as computing the 2.1D sketch from the 2D graphical representation under the Bayesian framework, which consists of two components: (i) region layering/coloring based on the Swendsen-Wang cuts algorithm, which infers partial occluding order of regions, and (ii) address variable assignments based on Gibbs sampling, which completes the open bonds of the terminators of the 3-degree junctions. The proposed method is tested on the D-Order dataset, the Berkeley segmentation dataset and the Stanford 3D dataset. The experimental results show the efficiency and robustness of our approach. ? 2017 Beijing Institute of Aerospace Information.展开更多
