Hyperspectral image super-resolution(HSI SR) has been a very attractive research topic in computer vision, attracting the attention of many researchers. However, most HSI SR methods focus on the tradeoff between spatial resolution and spectral information, and cannot guarantee the efficient extraction of image information. In this paper, a multidimensional features network(MFNet) for HSI SR is proposed, which simultaneously learns and fuses the spatial,spectral, and frequency multidimensional features of HSI. Spatial features contain rich local details,spectral features contain the information and correlation between spectral bands, and frequency feature can reflect the global information of the image and can be used to obtain the global context of HSI. The fusion of the three features can better guide image super-resolution, to obtain higher-quality high-resolution hyperspectral images. In MFNet, we use the frequency feature extraction module(FFEM) to extract the frequency feature. On this basis, a multidimensional features extraction module(MFEM) is designed to learn and fuse multidimensional features. In addition, experimental results on two public datasets demonstrate that MFNet achieves state-of-the-art performance.展开更多

文摘Stress accumulation is a key factor leading to sodium storage performance deterioration for NiSe_(2)-based anodes.Therefore,inhibiting the concentrated local stress during the sodiataion/desodiation process is crucial for acquiring stable NiSe2-based materials for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs),Herein,a stress dissipation strategy driven by architecture engineering is proposed,which can achieve ultrafast and ultralong sodium storage properties.Different from the conventional sphere-like or rod-like architecture,the three-dimensional(3D)flower-like NiSe_(2)@C composite is delicately designed and assembled with onedimensional nanorods and carbon framework.More importantly,the fundamental mechanism of improved structure stability is unveiled by simulations and experimental results simultaneously.It demonstrates that this designed multidimensional flower-like architecture with dispersed nanorods can balance the structural mismatch,avoid concentrated local strain,and relax the internal stress,mainly induced by the unavoidable volume variation during the repeated conversion processes.Moreover,it can provide more Na^(+)-storage sites and multi-directional migration pathways,leading to a fast Na^(+)-migration channel with boosted reaction kinetic.As expected,it delivers superior rate performance(441 mA h g^(-1)at 5.0 A g^(-1))and long cycling stability(563 mA h g^(-1)at 1.0 A g^(-1)over 1000 cycles)for SIBs.This work provides useful insights for designing high-performance conversion-based anode materials for SIBs.

文摘Biometric characteristics are playing a vital role in security for the last few years.Human gait classification in video sequences is an important biometrics attribute and is used for security purposes.A new framework for human gait classification in video sequences using deep learning(DL)fusion assisted and posterior probability-based moth flames optimization(MFO)is proposed.In the first step,the video frames are resized and finetuned by two pre-trained lightweight DL models,EfficientNetB0 and MobileNetV2.Both models are selected based on the top-5 accuracy and less number of parameters.Later,both models are trained through deep transfer learning and extracted deep features fused using a voting scheme.In the last step,the authors develop a posterior probabilitybased MFO feature selection algorithm to select the best features.The selected features are classified using several supervised learning methods.The CASIA-B publicly available dataset has been employed for the experimental process.On this dataset,the authors selected six angles such as 0°,18°,90°,108°,162°,and 180°and obtained an average accuracy of 96.9%,95.7%,86.8%,90.0%,95.1%,and 99.7%.Results demonstrate comparable improvement in accuracy and significantly minimize the computational time with recent state-of-the-art techniques.

文摘Due to the limitations of existing imaging hardware, obtaining high-resolution hyperspectral images is challenging. Hyperspectral image super-resolution(HSI SR) has been a very attractive research topic in computer vision, attracting the attention of many researchers. However, most HSI SR methods focus on the tradeoff between spatial resolution and spectral information, and cannot guarantee the efficient extraction of image information. In this paper, a multidimensional features network(MFNet) for HSI SR is proposed, which simultaneously learns and fuses the spatial,spectral, and frequency multidimensional features of HSI. Spatial features contain rich local details,spectral features contain the information and correlation between spectral bands, and frequency feature can reflect the global information of the image and can be used to obtain the global context of HSI. The fusion of the three features can better guide image super-resolution, to obtain higher-quality high-resolution hyperspectral images. In MFNet, we use the frequency feature extraction module(FFEM) to extract the frequency feature. On this basis, a multidimensional features extraction module(MFEM) is designed to learn and fuse multidimensional features. In addition, experimental results on two public datasets demonstrate that MFNet achieves state-of-the-art performance.
文摘Recognizing road scene context from a single image remains a critical challenge for intelligent autonomous driving systems,particularly in dynamic and unstructured environments.While recent advancements in deep learning have significantly enhanced road scene classification,simultaneously achieving high accuracy,computational efficiency,and adaptability across diverse conditions continues to be difficult.To address these challenges,this study proposes HybridLSTM,a novel and efficient framework that integrates deep learning-based,object-based,and handcrafted feature extraction methods within a unified architecture.HybridLSTM is designed to classify four distinct road scene categories—crosswalk(CW),highway(HW),overpass/tunnel(OP/T),and parking(P)—by leveraging multiple publicly available datasets,including Places-365,BDD100K,LabelMe,and KITTI,thereby promoting domain generalization.The framework fuses object-level features extracted using YOLOv5 and VGG19,scene-level global representations obtained from a modified VGG19,and fine-grained texture features captured through eight handcrafted descriptors.This hybrid feature fusion enables the model to capture both semantic context and low-level visual cues,which are critical for robust scene understanding.To model spatial arrangements and latent sequential dependencies present even in static imagery,the combined features are processed through a Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)network,allowing the extraction of discriminative patterns across heterogeneous feature spaces.Extensive experiments conducted on 2725 annotated road scene images,with an 80:20 training-to-testing split,validate the effectiveness of the proposed model.HybridLSTM achieves a classification accuracy of 96.3%,a precision of 95.8%,a recall of 96.1%,and an F1-score of 96.0%,outperforming several existing state-of-the-art methods.These results demonstrate the robustness,scalability,and generalization capability of HybridLSTM across varying environments and scene complexities.Moreover,the framework is optimized to balance classification performance with computational efficiency,making it highly suitable for real-time deployment in embedded autonomous driving systems.Future work will focus on extending the model to multi-class detection within a single frame and optimizing it further for edge-device deployments to reduce computational overhead in practical applications.

文摘Remote sensing cross-modal image-text retrieval(RSCIR)can flexibly and subjectively retrieve remote sensing images utilizing query text,which has received more researchers’attention recently.However,with the increasing volume of visual-language pre-training model parameters,direct transfer learning consumes a substantial amount of computational and storage resources.Moreover,recently proposed parameter-efficient transfer learning methods mainly focus on the reconstruction of channel features,ignoring the spatial features which are vital for modeling key entity relationships.To address these issues,we design an efficient transfer learning framework for RSCIR,which is based on spatial feature efficient reconstruction(SPER).A concise and efficient spatial adapter is introduced to enhance the extraction of spatial relationships.The spatial adapter is able to spatially reconstruct the features in the backbone with few parameters while incorporating the prior information from the channel dimension.We conduct quantitative and qualitative experiments on two different commonly used RSCIR datasets.Compared with traditional methods,our approach achieves an improvement of 3%-11% in sumR metric.Compared with methods finetuning all parameters,our proposed method only trains less than 1% of the parameters,while maintaining an overall performance of about 96%.

文摘Constructing multi-dimensional hydrogen bond(H-bond)regulated single-molecule systems with multiemission remains a challenge.Herein,we report the design of a new excited-state intramolecular proton transfer(ESIPT)featured chromophore(HBT-DPI)that shows flexible emission tunability via the multidimensional regulation of intra-and intermolecular H-bonds.The feature of switchable intramolecular Hbonds is induced via incorporating several hydrogen bond acceptors and donors into one single HBT-DPI molecule,allowing the“turn on/off”of ESIPT process by forming isomers with distinct intramolecular Hbonds configurations.In response to different external H-bonding environments,the obtained four types of crystal/cocrystals vary in the contents of isomers and the molecular packing modes,which are mainly guided by the intermolecular H-bonds,exhibiting non-emissive features or emissions ranging from green to orange.Utilizing the feature of intermolecular H-bond guided molecular packing,we demonstrate the utility of this fluorescent material for visualizing hydrophobic/hydrophilic areas on large-scale heterogeneous surfaces of modified poly(1,1-difluoroethylene)(PVDF)membranes and quantitatively estimating the surface hydrophobicity,providing a new approach for hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity monitoring and measurement.Overall,this study represents a new design strategy for constructing multi-dimensional hydrogen bond regulated ESIPT-based fluorescent materials that enable multiple emissions and unique applications.

文摘Spartina alterniflora is now listed among the world’s 100 most dangerous invasive species,severely affecting the ecological balance of coastal wetlands.Remote sensing technologies based on deep learning enable large-scale monitoring of Spartina alterniflora,but they require large datasets and have poor interpretability.A new method is proposed to detect Spartina alterniflora from Sentinel-2 imagery.Firstly,to get the high canopy cover and dense community characteristics of Spartina alterniflora,multi-dimensional shallow features are extracted from the imagery.Secondly,to detect different objects from satellite imagery,index features are extracted,and the statistical features of the Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)are derived using principal component analysis.Then,ensemble learning methods,including random forest,extreme gradient boosting,and light gradient boosting machine models,are employed for image classification.Meanwhile,Recursive Feature Elimination with Cross-Validation(RFECV)is used to select the best feature subset.Finally,to enhance the interpretability of the models,the best features are utilized to classify multi-temporal images and SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)is combined with these classifications to explain the model prediction process.The method is validated by using Sentinel-2 imageries and previous observations of Spartina alterniflora in Chongming Island,it is found that the model combining image texture features such as GLCM covariance can significantly improve the detection accuracy of Spartina alterniflora by about 8%compared with the model without image texture features.Through multiple model comparisons and feature selection via RFECV,the selected model and eight features demonstrated good classification accuracy when applied to data from different time periods,proving that feature reduction can effectively enhance model generalization.Additionally,visualizing model decisions using SHAP revealed that the image texture feature component_1_GLCMVariance is particularly important for identifying each land cover type.
