On the basis of multi-resolution wavelet analysis, an adaptive radar emitter signal recognition method based on multi-scale wavelet entropy feature extraction and feature weighting was proposed. With the only priori knowledge of signal to noise ratio(SNR), the method of extracting multi-scale wavelet entropy features of wavelet coefficients from different received signals were combined with calculating uneven weight factor and stability weight factor of the extracted multi-dimensional characteristics. Radar emitter signals of different modulation types and different parameters modulated were recognized through feature weighting and feature fusion. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the presented algorithm has a high recognition rate. Additionally, when the SNR is greater than-4 d B, the correct recognition rate is higher than 93%. Hence, the proposed algorithm has great application value.展开更多

The results reveal that the subsurface structures strikes are different compared with those in the research region. In other words, the geophysical advantageous directions from the gravity and magnetic anomalies are not the same as those caused by the surface structures. The local horizontal gradient results from the gravity and magnetic anomalies show that the majority of earthquakes occur along an intense fault zone, which is a zone of abrupt gravity and negative magnetic change, where the shapes match very well. From the distribution of earthquakes in this area, we find that it has experienced more than 11 earthquake events with magnitude larger than Ms7.0. In addition, water development sites such as Jinshajiang, Lancangjiang, and the Red River and Pearl River watersheds have been hit ten times by earthquakes of this magnitude. It is observed that strong earthquakes occur frequently in the Holocene active fault zone.展开更多

Despite the fact that agriculture’s contribution is decreasing asthe world’s population grows, it continues to be the most important sourceof employment with a little margin of difference. As a result, there is apressing need to pick up the pace in order to achieve competitive, productive,diverse, and long-term agriculture. Plant disease misinterpretations can resultin the incorrect application of pesticides, causing crop harm. As a result,early detection of infections is critical as well as cost-effective for farmers.To diagnose the disease at an earlier stage, appropriate segmentation of thediseased component from the leaf in an accurate manner is critical. However,due to the existence of noise in the digitally captured image, as well asvariations in backdrop, shape, and brightness in sick photographs, effectiverecognition has become a difficult task. Leaf smut, Bacterial blight andBrown spot diseases are segmented and classified using diseased Apple (20),Cercospora (60), Rice (100), Grape (140), and wheat (180) leaf photos in thesuggested work. In addition, a superior segmentation technique for the ROIfrom sick leaves with living backdrop is presented here. Textural features of thesegmented ROI, such as 1st and 2nd order WPCA Features, are discoveredafter segmentation. This comprises 1st order textural features like kurtosis,skewness, mean and variance as well as 2nd procedure textural features likesmoothness, energy, correlation, homogeneity, contrast, and entropy. Finally,the segmented region of interest’s textural features is fed into four differentclassifiers, with the Enhanced Deep Convolutional Neural Network provingto be the most precise, with a 96.1% accuracy.展开更多

WEF can reflect the wavelet energydistribution of the principal lines, wrinkles and ridges in different directions at differentresolutions (scales), thus it can efficiently characterize palmprints. This paper also analyses thediscriminabilities of each level WEF and, according to these discriminabilities, chooses a suitableweight for each level to compute the weighted city block distance for recognition. The experimentalresults show that the order of the discriminabilities of each level WEF, from strong to weak, is the4th, 3rd, 5th, 2nd and 1st level. It also shows that WEF is robust to some extent in rotation andtranslation of the images. Accuracies of 99.24% and 99.45% have been obtained in palmprintverification and palmprint identification, respectively. These results demonstrate the power of theproposed approach.展开更多

The set of extracted features not only represents the echo waveform in a concise way, but also is sufficient and well suited for classification of non-stationary echo data from objects with different property.The feature extraction is derived from the Discrete Dyadic Wavlet Transform (DDWT) of the echo through the undecimated algorithm. The motivation we use the DDWT is that it is time-shift-invariant which is beneficial for localization of edge, and the wavelet coefficients at larger scale represent the main shape feature of echo, i.e. edge, and the noise and modulated high-frequency components are reduced with scale increased. Some experimental results using real data which contain 144 samples from 4 classes of lake bottoms with different sediments are provided. The results show that our approach is a prospective way to represent wideband echo for reliable recognition of nonstationary echo with great variability.展开更多

This paper describes a two-stage robust pedestrian detection approach. The first stage uses a full body detector applied to a single image to generate pedestrian candidates. In the second stage, each pedestrian candidate is verified with a detector ensemble consisting of part detectors. The full body detector is trained based on improved shapelet features, while the part detectors make use of Haar-like wavelets as features. All the detectors are trained by a boosting method. The responses of the part detectors are then combined using a detector ensemble. The verification process is formulated as a combinatoria~ optimization problem with a genetic a^gorithm for optimization. Then, the detection results are regarded as equivalent classes so that multiple detections of the same pedestrian are quickly merged together. Tests show that this approach has a detection rate of over 95% for 0.1% FPPW on the INRIA dataset, which is significantly better than that of the original shapelet feature based approach and the existing detector ensemble approach. This approach can robustly detect pedestrians in different situations.展开更多
