文摘The multi-modal characteristics of mineral particles play a pivotal role in enhancing the classification accuracy,which is critical for obtaining a profound understanding of the Earth's composition and ensuring effective exploitation utilization of its resources.However,the existing methods for classifying mineral particles do not fully utilize these multi-modal features,thereby limiting the classification accuracy.Furthermore,when conventional multi-modal image classification methods are applied to planepolarized and cross-polarized sequence images of mineral particles,they encounter issues such as information loss,misaligned features,and challenges in spatiotemporal feature extraction.To address these challenges,we propose a multi-modal mineral particle polarization image classification network(MMGC-Net)for precise mineral particle classification.Initially,MMGC-Net employs a two-dimensional(2D)backbone network with shared parameters to extract features from two types of polarized images to ensure feature alignment.Subsequently,a cross-polarized intra-modal feature fusion module is designed to refine the spatiotemporal features from the extracted features of the cross-polarized sequence images.Ultimately,the inter-modal feature fusion module integrates the two types of modal features to enhance the classification precision.Quantitative and qualitative experimental results indicate that when compared with the current state-of-the-art multi-modal image classification methods,MMGC-Net demonstrates marked superiority in terms of mineral particle multi-modal feature learning and four classification evaluation metrics.It also demonstrates better stability than the existing models.
文摘In recent years,the analysis of encrypted network traffic has gained momentum due to the widespread use of Transport Layer Security and Quick UDP Internet Connections protocols,which complicate and prolong the analysis process.Classification models face challenges in understanding and classifying unknown traffic because of issues related to interpret ability and the representation of traffic data.To tackle these complexities,multi-modal representation learning can be employed to extract meaningful features and represent them in a lower-dimensional latent space.Recently,auto-encoder-based multi-modal representation techniques have shown superior performance in representing network traffic.By combining the advantages of multi-modal representation with efficient classifiers,we can develop robust network traffic classifiers.In this paper,we propose a novel multi-modal encoder-decoder model to create unified representations of network traffic,paired with a robust 1D-CNN(one-dimensional convolution neural network)classifier for effective traffic classification.The proposed model utilizes the ISCX Virtual Private Networknon Virtual Private Network 2016 datasets to extract general multi-modal representations and to train both shallow and deep learning models,such as Random Forest and the 1D-CNN model,for traffic classification.We compare these learning approaches based on the multi-modal representations generated from the autoencoder and the early feature fusion technique.For the classification task,both the Random Forest and 1D-CNN models,when trained on multimodal representations,achieve over 90%accuracy on a highly imbalanced dataset.

文摘How to energy-efficiently maintain the topology of wireless sensor networks(WSNs) is still a difficult problem because of their numerous nodes,highly dynamic nature,varied application scenarios and limited resources.An energy-efficient multi-mode clusters maintenance(M2CM) method is proposed based on localized and event-driven mechanism in this work,which is different from the conventional clusters maintenance model with always periodically re-clustered among the whole network style based on time-trigger for hierarchical WSNs.M2 CM can meet such demands of clusters maintenance as adaptive local maintenance for the damaged clusters according to its changes in time and space field.,the triggers of M2 CM include such events as nodes' residual energy being under the threshold,the load imbalance of cluster head,joining in or exiting from any cluster for new node or disable one,etc.Based on neighboring relationship of the damaged clusters,one can start a single cluster(inner-cluster) maintenance or clusters(inter-cluster) maintenance program to meet diverse demands in the topology management of hierarchical WSNs.The experiment results based on NS2 simulation show that the proposed method can significantly save energy used in maintaining a damaged network,effectively narrow down the influenced area of clusters maintenance,and increase transmitted data and prolong lifetime of network compared to the traditional schemes.
文摘The bootstrap resampling method is applied to an ensemble artificial neural network (ANN) approach (which combines machine learning with physical data obtained from a numerical weather prediction model) to provide a multi-ANN model super-ensemble for application to multi-step-ahead forecasting of wind speed and of the associated power generated from a wind turbine. A statistical combination of the individual forecasts from the various ANNs of the super-ensemble is used to construct the best deterministic forecast, as well as the prediction uncertainty interval associated with this forecast. The bootstrapped neural-network methodology is validated using measured wind speed and power data acquired from a wind turbine in an operational wind farm located in northern China.

文摘Transient stability assessment(TSA)based on artificial intelligence typically has two distinct model management approaches:a unified management approach for all faulted lines and a separate management approach for each faulted line.To address the shortcomings of the aforementioned approaches,namely accuracy,training time,and model management complexity,a multi-model management approach for power system TSA based on multi-moment feature clustering has been proposed.First,the steady-state and transient features present under fault conditions were obtained through a transient simulation of line faults.The input sample set was then constructed using the aforementioned multi-moment electrical features and the embedded faulty line numbers.Subsequently,K-means clustering was conducted on each line based on the similarity of their electrical features,employing t-SNE dimensionality reduction.The PSO-CNN model was trained separately for each cluster to generate several independent TSA models.Finally,a model effectiveness evaluation system consisting of five metrics was established,and the effect of the sample imbalance ratio on the model effectiveness was investigated.The model effectiveness was evaluated using the IEEE 39-bus system algorithm.The results showed that the multi-model management strategy based on multi-moment feature clustering can effectively combine the two advantages of superior evaluation performance and streamlined model management by fully extracting system features.Moreover,this approach allows for more flexible adjustments to line topology changes.
文摘Optimizing routing and resource allocation in decentralized unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)networks remains challenging due to interference and rapidly changing topologies.The authors introduce a novel framework combining double deep Q-networks(DDQNs)and graph neural networks(GNNs)for joint routing and resource allocation.The framework uses GNNs to model the network topology and DDQNs to adaptively control routing and resource allocation,addressing interference and improving network performance.Simulation results show that the proposed approach outperforms traditional methods such as Closest-to-Destination(c2Dst),Max-SINR(mSINR),and Multi-Layer Perceptron(MLP)-based models,achieving approximately 23.5% improvement in throughput,50% increase in connection probability,and 17.6% reduction in number of hops,demonstrating its effectiveness in dynamic UAV networks.

文摘Gait recognition is a key biometric for long-distance identification,yet its performance is severely degraded by real-world challenges such as varying clothing,carrying conditions,and changing viewpoints.While combining silhouette and skeleton data is a promising direction,effectively fusing these heterogeneous modalities and adaptively weighting their contributions in response to diverse conditions remains a central problem.This paper introduces GaitMAFF,a novelMulti-modal Adaptive Feature Fusion Network,to address this challenge.Our approach first transforms discrete skeleton joints into a dense SkeletonMap representation to align with silhouettes,then employs an attention-based module to dynamically learn the fusion weights between the two modalities.These fused features are processed by a powerful spatio-temporal backbone withWeighted Global-Local Feature FusionModules(WFFM)to learn a discriminative representation.Extensive experiments on the challenging CCPG and Gait3D datasets show that GaitMAFF achieves state-of-the-art performance,with an average Rank-1 accuracy of 84.6%on CCPG and 58.7%on Gait3D.These results demonstrate that our adaptive fusion strategy effectively integrates complementary multimodal information,significantly enhancing gait recognition robustness and accuracy in complex scenes and providing a practical solution for real-world applications.
文摘The existence of absorption and reflection of light underwater leads to problems such as color distortion and blue-green bias in underwater images.In this study,a depthwise separable convolution-based generative adversarial network(GAN)algorithm was proposed.Taking GAN as the basic framework,it combined a depthwise separable convolution module,attention mechanism,and reconstructed convolution module to realize the enhancement of underwater degraded images.Multi-scale features were captured by the depthwise separable convolution module,and the attention mechanism was utilized to enhance attention to important features.The reconstructed convolution module further extracts and fuses local and global features.Experimental results showed that the algorithm performs well in improving the color bias and blurring of underwater images,with PSNR reaching 27.835,SSIM reaching 0.883,UIQM reaching 3.205,and UCIQE reaching 0.713.The enhanced image outperforms the comparison algorithm in both subjective and objective metrics.

文摘Autism spectrum disorder(AsD)is a highly heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder.Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving outcomes.Traditional single-modality diagnostic methods are subjective,limited,and struggle to reveal the underlying pathological mechanisms.In contrast,multimodal data analysis integrates behavioral,physiological,and neuroimaging information with advanced machine-learning and deeplearning algorithms to overcome these limitations.In this review,we surveyed the recent pediatric AsD literature,highlighting artificial intelligence-driven diagnostic techniques,multimodal data fusion strategies,and emerging trends in ASD assessment.We surveyed studies that integrated two or more modalities and summarized the fusion levels,learning paradigms,tasks,datasets,and metrics.Multimodal approaches outperform singlemodality baselines in classification,severity estimation,and subtyping by leveraging complementary information and reducing modality-specific biases.Multimodal approaches significantly enhance diagnostic accuracy and comprehensiveness,enabling early screening of AsD,symptom subtyping,severity assessment,and personalized interventions.Advances in multimodal fusion techniques have promoted progress in precision medicine for the treatment of ASD.
