This paper presents the neural exploration with feature-based visual odometry and tracking-failure-reduction policy(Ne OR), a framework for embodied visual exploration that possesses the efficient exploration capabilities of deep reinforcement learning(DRL)-based exploration policies and leverages feature-based visual odometry(VO) for more accurate mapping and positioning results. An improved local policy is also proposed to reduce tracking failures of feature-based VO in weakly textured scenes through a refined multi-discrete action space, keyframe fusion, and an auxiliary task. The experimental results demonstrate that Ne OR has better mapping and positioning accuracy compared to other entirely learning-based exploration frameworks and improves the robustness of feature-based VO by significantly reducing tracking failures in weakly textured scenes.展开更多

Ocean, carrier, aircraft, and atmosphere are treated as aggregation agents, the detailed components like catapult, landing gears, and disturbances are considered as meta-agents, which belong to their aggregation agent. Thus, the model with two layers is formed i.e. the aggregation agent layer and the meta-agent layer. The information communication among all agents is described. The meta-agents within one aggregation agent communicate with each other directly by information sharing, but the meta-agents, which belong to different aggregation agents exchange their information through the aggregation layer first, and then perceive it from the sharing environment, that is the aggregation agent. Thus, not only the hierarchy model is built, but also the environment perceived by each agent is specified. Meanwhile, the problem of balancing the independency of agent and the resource consumption brought by real-time communication within multi-agent system （MAS） is resolved. Each agent involved in carrier-based aircraft catapult launch is depicted, with considering the interaction within disturbed atmospheric environment and multiple motion bodies including carrier, aircraft, and landing gears. The models of reactive agents among them are derived based on tensors, and the perceived messages and inner frameworks of each agent are characterized. Finally, some results of a simulation instance are given. The simulation and modeling of dynamic system based on multi-agent system is of benefit to express physical concepts and logical hierarchy clearly and precisely. The system model can easily draw in kinds of other agents to achieve a precise simulation of more complex system. This modeling technique makes the complex integral dynamic equations of multibodies decompose into parallel operations of single agent, and it is convenient to expand, maintain, and reuse the program codes.展开更多

文摘To enhance the denoising performance of event-based sensors,we introduce a clustering-based temporal deep neural network denoising method(CBTDNN).Firstly,to cluster the sensor output data and obtain the respective cluster centers,a combination of density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise(DBSCAN)and Kmeans++is utilized.Subsequently,long short-term memory(LSTM)is employed to fit and yield optimized cluster centers with temporal information.Lastly,based on the new cluster centers and denoising ratio,a radius threshold is set,and noise points beyond this threshold are removed.The comprehensive denoising metrics F1_score of CBTDNN have achieved 0.8931,0.7735,and 0.9215 on the traffic sequences dataset,pedestrian detection dataset,and turntable dataset,respectively.And these metrics demonstrate improvements of 49.90%,33.07%,19.31%,and 22.97%compared to four contrastive algorithms,namely nearest neighbor(NNb),nearest neighbor with polarity(NNp),Autoencoder,and multilayer perceptron denoising filter(MLPF).These results demonstrate that the proposed method enhances the denoising performance of event-based sensors.

文摘Internet of things(IoT)field has emerged due to the rapid growth of artificial intelligence and communication technologies.The use of IoT technology in modern healthcare environments is convenient for doctors and patients as it can be used in real-time monitoring of patients,proper administration of patient information,and healthcare management.However,the usage of IoT in the healthcare domain will become a nightmare if patient information is not securely maintainedwhile transferring over an insecure network or storing at the administrator end.In this manuscript,the authors have developed a secure IoT healthcare monitoring system using the Blockchainbased XOR Elliptic Curve Cryptography(BC-XORECC)technique to avoid various vulnerable attacks.Initially,thework has established an authentication process for patient details by generating tokens,keys,and tags using Length Ceaser Cipher-based PearsonHashingAlgorithm(LCC-PHA),EllipticCurve Cryptography(ECC),and Fishers Yates Shuffled Based Adelson-Velskii and Landis(FYS-AVL)tree.The authentications prevent unauthorized users from accessing or misuse the data.After that,a secure data transfer is performed using BC-XORECC,which acts faster by maintaining high data privacy and blocking the path for the attackers.Finally,the Linear Spline Kernel-Based Recurrent Neural Network(LSK-RNN)classification monitors the patient’s health status.The whole developed framework brings out a secure data transfer without data loss or data breaches and remains efficient for health care monitoring via IoT.Experimental analysis shows that the proposed framework achieves a faster encryption and decryption time,classifies the patient’s health status with an accuracy of 89%,and remains robust comparedwith the existing state-of-the-art method.

文摘Wastewater-based epidemiology has emerged as a transformative surveillance tool for estimating substance consumption and monitoring disease prevalence,particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.It enables the population-level monitoring of illicit drug use,pathogen prevalence,and environmental pollutant exposure.In this perspective,we summarize the key challenges specific to the Chinese context:(1)Sampling inconsistencies,necessitating standardized 24-hour composite protocols with high-frequency autosamplers(≤15 min/event)to improve the representativeness of samples.

文摘Traditional rule-based IntrusionDetection Systems(IDS)are commonly employed owing to their simple design and ability to detect known threats.Nevertheless,as dynamic network traffic and a new degree of threats exist in IoT environments,these systems do not perform well and have elevated false positive rates—consequently decreasing detection accuracy.In this study,we try to overcome these restrictions by employing fuzzy logic and machine learning to develop an Enhanced Rule-Based Model(ERBM)to classify the packets better and identify intrusions.The ERBM developed for this approach improves data preprocessing and feature selections by utilizing fuzzy logic,where three membership functions are created to classify all the network traffic features as low,medium,or high to remain situationally aware of the environment.Such fuzzy logic sets produce adaptive detection rules by reducing data uncertainty.Also,for further classification,machine learning classifiers such as Decision Tree(DT),Random Forest(RF),and Neural Networks(NN)learn complex ways of attacks and make the detection process more precise.A thorough performance evaluation using different metrics,including accuracy,precision,recall,F1 Score,detection rate,and false-positive rate,verifies the supremacy of ERBM over classical IDS.Under extensive experiments,the ERBM enables a remarkable detection rate of 99%with considerably fewer false positives than the conventional models.Integrating the ability for uncertain reasoning with fuzzy logic and an adaptable component via machine learning solutions,the ERBM systemprovides a unique,scalable,data-driven approach to IoT intrusion detection.This research presents a major enhancement initiative in the context of rule-based IDS,introducing improvements in accuracy to evolving IoT threats.
