These conditions pose a serious threat to the safeoperation of the power grid.Machine vision technology, particularly object recognition technology, has beenwidelyemployed to identify foreign objects in transmission line images. Despite its wide application, the technique faceslimitations due to the complex environmental background and other auxiliary factors. To address these challenges,this study introduces an improved YOLOv8n. The traditional stepwise convolution and pooling layers are replacedwith a spatial-depth convolution (SPD-Conv) module, aiming to improve the algorithm’s efficacy in recognizinglow-resolution and small-size objects. The algorithm’s feature extraction network is improved by using a LargeSelective Kernel (LSK) attention mechanism, which enhances the ability to extract relevant features. Additionally,the SIoU Loss function is used instead of the Complete Intersection over Union (CIoU) Loss to facilitate fasterconvergence of the algorithm. Through experimental verification, the improved YOLOv8n model achieves adetection accuracy of 88.8% on the test set. The recognition accuracy of cranes is improved by 2.9%, which isa significant enhancement compared to the unimproved algorithm. This improvement effectively enhances theaccuracy of recognizing foreign objects on transmission lines and proves the effectiveness of the new algorithm.展开更多

文摘An intelligent diagnosis method based on self-adaptiveWasserstein dual generative adversarial networks and feature fusion is proposed due to problems such as insufficient sample size and incomplete fault feature extraction,which are commonly faced by rolling bearings and lead to low diagnostic accuracy.Initially,dual models of the Wasserstein deep convolutional generative adversarial network incorporating gradient penalty(1D-2DWDCGAN)are constructed to augment the original dataset.A self-adaptive loss threshold control training strategy is introduced,and establishing a self-adaptive balancing mechanism for stable model training.Subsequently,a diagnostic model based on multidimensional feature fusion is designed,wherein complex features from various dimensions are extracted,merging the original signal waveform features,structured features,and time-frequency features into a deep composite feature representation that encompasses multiple dimensions and scales;thus,efficient and accurate small sample fault diagnosis is facilitated.Finally,an experiment between the bearing fault dataset of CaseWestern ReserveUniversity and the fault simulation experimental platformdataset of this research group shows that this method effectively supplements the dataset and remarkably improves the diagnostic accuracy.The diagnostic accuracy after data augmentation reached 99.94%and 99.87%in two different experimental environments,respectively.In addition,robustness analysis is conducted on the diagnostic accuracy of the proposed method under different noise backgrounds,verifying its good generalization performance.

文摘Accurate prediction of landslide displacement is crucial for effective early warning of landslide disasters.While most existing prediction methods focus on time-series forecasting for individual monitoring points,there is limited research on the spatiotemporal characteristics of landslide deformation.This paper proposes a novel Multi-Relation Spatiotemporal Graph Residual Network with Multi-Level Feature Attention(MFA-MRSTGRN)that effectively improves the prediction performance of landslide displacement through spatiotemporal fusion.This model integrates internal seepage factors as data feature enhancements with external triggering factors,allowing for accurate capture of the complex spatiotemporal characteristics of landslide displacement and the construction of a multi-source heterogeneous dataset.The MFA-MRSTGRN model incorporates dynamic graph theory and four key modules:multilevel feature attention,temporal-residual decomposition,spatial multi-relational graph convolution,and spatiotemporal fusion prediction.This comprehensive approach enables the efficient analyses of multi-source heterogeneous datasets,facilitating adaptive exploration of the evolving multi-relational,multi-dimensional spatiotemporal complexities in landslides.When applying this model to predict the displacement of the Liangshuijing landslide,we demonstrate that the MFA-MRSTGRN model surpasses traditional models,such as random forest(RF),long short-term memory(LSTM),and spatial temporal graph convolutional networks(ST-GCN)models in terms of various evaluation metrics including mean absolute error(MAE=1.27 mm),root mean square error(RMSE=1.49 mm),mean absolute percentage error(MAPE=0.026),and R-squared(R^(2)=0.88).Furthermore,feature ablation experiments indicate that incorporating internal seepage factors improves the predictive performance of landslide displacement models.This research provides an advanced and reliable method for landslide displacement prediction.

文摘Encrypted traffic identification pertains to the precise acquisition and categorization of data from traffic datasets containing imbalanced and obscured content.The extraction of encrypted traffic attributes and their subsequent identification presents a formidable challenge.The existing models have predominantly relied on direct extraction of encrypted traffic data from imbalanced datasets,with the dataset’s imbalance significantly affecting the model’s performance.In the present study,a new model,referred to as UD-VLD(Unbalanced Dataset-VAE-LSTM-DRN),was proposed to address above problem.The proposed model is an encrypted traffic identification model for handling unbalanced datasets.The encoder of the variational autoencoder(VAE)is combined with the decoder and Long-short term Memory(LSTM)in UD-VLD model to realize the data enhancement processing of the original unbalanced datasets.The enhanced data is processed by transforming the deep residual network(DRN)to address neural network gradient-related issues.Subsequently,the data is classified and recognized.The UD-VLD model integrates the related techniques of deep learning into the encrypted traffic recognition technique,thereby solving the processing problem for unbalanced datasets.The UD-VLD model was tested using the publicly available Tor dataset and VPN dataset.The UD-VLD model is evaluated against other comparative models in terms of accuracy,loss rate,precision,recall,F1-score,total time,and ROC curve.The results reveal that the UD-VLD model exhibits better performance in both binary and multi classification,being higher than other encrypted traffic recognition models that exist for unbalanced datasets.Furthermore,the evaluation performance indicates that the UD-VLD model effectivelymitigates the impact of unbalanced data on traffic classification.and can serve as a novel solution for encrypted traffic identification.
文摘This paper proposes a new network structure,namely the ProNet network.Retinal medical image segmentation can help clinical diagnosis of related eye diseases and is essential for subsequent rational treatment.The baseline model of the ProNet network is UperNet(Unified perceptual parsing Network),and the backbone network is ConvNext(Convolutional Network).A network structure based on depth-separable convolution and 1×1 convolution is used,which has good performance and robustness.We further optimise ProNet mainly in two aspects.One is data enhancement using increased noise and slight angle rotation,which can significantly increase the diversity of data and help the model better learn the patterns and features of the data and improve the model’s performance.Meanwhile,it can effectively expand the training data set,reduce the influence of noise and abnormal data in the data set on the model,and improve the accuracy and reliability of the model.Another is the loss function aspect,and we finally use the focal loss function.The focal loss function is well suited for complex tasks such as object detection.The function will penalise the loss carried by samples that the model misclassifies,thus enabling better training of the model to avoid these errors while solving the category imbalance problem as a way to improve image segmentation density and segmentation accuracy.From the experimental results,the evaluation metrics mIoU(mean Intersection over Union)enhanced by 4.47%,and mDice enhanced by 2.92% compared to the baseline network.Better generalization effects and more accurate image segmentation are achieved.

文摘The rapid pace of urban development has resulted in the widespread presence of construction equipment andincreasingly complex conditions in transmission corridors. These conditions pose a serious threat to the safeoperation of the power grid.Machine vision technology, particularly object recognition technology, has beenwidelyemployed to identify foreign objects in transmission line images. Despite its wide application, the technique faceslimitations due to the complex environmental background and other auxiliary factors. To address these challenges,this study introduces an improved YOLOv8n. The traditional stepwise convolution and pooling layers are replacedwith a spatial-depth convolution (SPD-Conv) module, aiming to improve the algorithm’s efficacy in recognizinglow-resolution and small-size objects. The algorithm’s feature extraction network is improved by using a LargeSelective Kernel (LSK) attention mechanism, which enhances the ability to extract relevant features. Additionally,the SIoU Loss function is used instead of the Complete Intersection over Union (CIoU) Loss to facilitate fasterconvergence of the algorithm. Through experimental verification, the improved YOLOv8n model achieves adetection accuracy of 88.8% on the test set. The recognition accuracy of cranes is improved by 2.9%, which isa significant enhancement compared to the unimproved algorithm. This improvement effectively enhances theaccuracy of recognizing foreign objects on transmission lines and proves the effectiveness of the new algorithm.

文摘The verification of nuclear test ban necessitates the classification and identification of infrasound events.The accurate and eff ective classification of seismic and chemical explosion infrasounds can promote the classification and identification of infrasound events.However,overfitting of the signals of seismic and chemical explosion infrasounds easily occurs during training due to the limited amount of data.Thus,to solve this problem,this paper proposes a classification method based on the mixed virtual infrasound data augmentation(MVIDA)algorithm and multiscale squeeze-and-excitation ResNet(MS-SE-ResNet).In this study,the eff ectiveness of the proposed method is verified through simulation and comparison experiments.The simulation results reveal that the MS-SE-ResNet network can eff ectively determine the separability of chemical explosion and seismic infrasounds in the frequency domain,and the average classification accuracy on the dataset enhanced by the MVIDA algorithm reaches 81.12%.This value is higher than those of the other four types of comparative classification methods.This work also demonstrates the eff ectiveness and stability of the augmentation algorithm and classification network in the classification of few-shot infrasound events.

文摘Lateral movement represents the most covert and critical phase of Advanced Persistent Threats(APTs),and its detection still faces two primary challenges:sample scarcity and“cold start”of new entities.To address these challenges,we propose an Uncertainty-Driven Graph Embedding-Enhanced Lateral Movement Detection framework(UGEA-LMD).First,the framework employs event-level incremental encoding on a continuous-time graph to capture fine-grained behavioral evolution,enabling newly appearing nodes to retain temporal contextual awareness even in the absence of historical interactions and thereby fundamentally mitigating the cold-start problem.Second,in the embedding space,we model the dependency structure among feature dimensions using a Gaussian copula to quantify the uncertainty distribution,and generate augmented samples with consistent structural and semantic properties through adaptive sampling,thus expanding the representation space of sparse samples and enhancing the model’s generalization under sparse sample conditions.Unlike static graph methods that cannot model temporal dependencies or data augmentation techniques that depend on predefined structures,UGEA-LMD offers both superior temporaldynamic modeling and structural generalization.Experimental results on the large-scale LANL log dataset demonstrate that,under the transductive setting,UGEA-LMD achieves an AUC of 0.9254;even when 10%of nodes or edges are withheld during training,UGEA-LMD significantly outperforms baseline methods on metrics such as recall and AUC,confirming its robustness and generalization capability in sparse-sample and cold-start scenarios.

文摘Automatic segmentation of ischemic stroke lesions from computed tomography(CT)images is of great significance for identifying and curing this life-threatening condition.However,in addition to the problem of low image contrast,it is also challenged by the complex changes in the appearance of the stroke area and the difficulty in obtaining image data.Considering that it is difficult to obtain stroke data and labels,a data enhancement algorithm for one-shot medical image segmentation based on data augmentation using learned transformation was proposed to increase the number of data sets for more accurate segmentation.A deep convolutional neural network based algorithm for stroke lesion segmentation,called structural similarity with light U-structure(USSL)Net,was proposed.We embedded a convolution module that combines switchable normalization,multi-scale convolution and dilated convolution in the network for better segmentation performance.Besides,considering the strong structural similarity between multi-modal stroke CT images,the USSL Net uses the correlation maximized structural similarity loss(SSL)function as the loss function to learn the varying shapes of the lesions.The experimental results show that our framework has achieved results in the following aspects.First,the data obtained by adding our data enhancement algorithm is better than the data directly segmented from the multi-modal image.Second,the performance of our network model is better than that of other models for stroke segmentation tasks.Third,the way SSL functioned as a loss function is more helpful to the improvement of segmentation accuracy than the cross-entropy loss function.
