Our experiments show that electromagnetic radiation (EMR) signals are related to the state of stress of a coal body. The higher the stress, the more intense the deformation and fractures of a coal body and the stronger the EMR signals. EMR signals reflect the degrees of concentrated stress of a coal body and danger of a rock burst. We selected EMR intensity as the test index of the No.237 gob-surrounded coal face in the Nanshan coal mine. We tested the EMR characteristics of the stress distribution on the strike, on the incline and in the interior of the coal body. The EMR rule of rock bursts, caused by sudden changes in stress, is analyzed. Our research shows that EMR technology can be not only used to test qualitatively the stress distribution of the surrounding rock, but also to predict a possible occurrence of rock burst. Based on this, effective distress measures are used to eliminate or at least weaken the incidence of rock bursts. We hooe that safetv in coalmines will be enhanced.展开更多

Moreover, a visual attention mechanism is employed to solve the problem of occlusion. Experimental results on the public face datasets WIDER FACE and FDDB demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

With these eigenfaees, the input images are classified based on Euclidian distance. The proposed method was tested on ORL (Olivetti Research Labs) face database. Experimental results on this database demonstrate that the effectiveness of the proposed method for face recognition has less misclassification in comparison with previous methods.展开更多

This paper innovates as it proposes a deep learning and set-based approach to face recognition subject to aging. The images for each subject taken at various times are treated as a single set, which is then compared to sets of images belonging to other subjects. Facial features are extracted using a convolutional neural network characteristic of deep learning. Our experimental results show that set-based recognition performs better than the singleton-based approach for both face identification and face verification. We also find that by using set-based recognition, it is easier to recognize older subjects from younger ones rather than younger subjects from older ones.展开更多

文摘With the continuous progress of The Times and the development of technology,the rise of network social media has also brought the“explosive”growth of image data.As one of the main ways of People’s Daily communication,image is widely used as a carrier of communication because of its rich content,intuitive and other advantages.Image recognition based on convolution neural network is the first application in the field of image recognition.A series of algorithm operations such as image eigenvalue extraction,recognition and convolution are used to identify and analyze different images.The rapid development of artificial intelligence makes machine learning more and more important in its research field.Use algorithms to learn each piece of data and predict the outcome.This has become an important key to open the door of artificial intelligence.In machine vision,image recognition is the foundation,but how to associate the low-level information in the image with the high-level image semantics becomes the key problem of image recognition.Predecessors have provided many model algorithms,which have laid a solid foundation for the development of artificial intelligence and image recognition.The multi-level information fusion model based on the VGG16 model is an improvement on the fully connected neural network.Different from full connection network,convolutional neural network does not use full connection method in each layer of neurons of neural network,but USES some nodes for connection.Although this method reduces the computation time,due to the fact that the convolutional neural network model will lose some useful feature information in the process of propagation and calculation,this paper improves the model to be a multi-level information fusion of the convolution calculation method,and further recovers the discarded feature information,so as to improve the recognition rate of the image.VGG divides the network into five groups(mimicking the five layers of AlexNet),yet it USES 3*3 filters and combines them as a convolution sequence.Network deeper DCNN,channel number is bigger.The recognition rate of the model was verified by 0RL Face Database,BioID Face Database and CASIA Face Image Database.

文摘This paper proposes a universal framework,termed as Multi-Task Hybrid Convolutional Neural Network(MHCNN),for joint face detection,facial landmark detection,facial quality,and facial attribute analysis.MHCNN consists of a high-accuracy single stage detector(SSD)and an efficient tiny convolutional neural network(T-CNN)for joint face detection refinement,alignment and attribute analysis.Though the SSD face detectors achieve promising results,we find that applying a tiny CNN on detections further boosts the detected face scores and bounding boxes.By multi-task training,our T-CNN aims to provide five facial landmarks,facial quality scores,and facial attributes like wearing sunglasses and wearing masks.Since there is no public facial quality data and facial attribute data as we need,we contribute two datasets,namely FaceQ and FaceA,which are collected from the Internet.Experiments show that our MHCNN achieves face detection performance comparable to the state of the art in face detection data set and benchmark(FDDB),and gets reasonable results on AFLW,FaceQ and FaceA.

文摘The incidence of dynamic coal or rock disasters is closely related to the distribution of stress in the surrounding rock. Our experiments show that electromagnetic radiation (EMR) signals are related to the state of stress of a coal body. The higher the stress, the more intense the deformation and fractures of a coal body and the stronger the EMR signals. EMR signals reflect the degrees of concentrated stress of a coal body and danger of a rock burst. We selected EMR intensity as the test index of the No.237 gob-surrounded coal face in the Nanshan coal mine. We tested the EMR characteristics of the stress distribution on the strike, on the incline and in the interior of the coal body. The EMR rule of rock bursts, caused by sudden changes in stress, is analyzed. Our research shows that EMR technology can be not only used to test qualitatively the stress distribution of the surrounding rock, but also to predict a possible occurrence of rock burst. Based on this, effective distress measures are used to eliminate or at least weaken the incidence of rock bursts. We hooe that safetv in coalmines will be enhanced.

文摘Face detection has achieved tremendous strides thanks to convolutional neural networks. However, dense face detection remains an open challenge due to large face scale variation, tiny faces, and serious occlusion. This paper presents a robust, dense face detector using global context and visual attention mechanisms which can significantly improve detection accuracy. Specifically, a global context fusion module with top-down feedback is proposed to improve the ability to identify tiny faces. Moreover, a visual attention mechanism is employed to solve the problem of occlusion. Experimental results on the public face datasets WIDER FACE and FDDB demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
文摘An improved face recognition method is proposed based on principal component analysis (PCA) compounded with genetic algorithm (GA), named as genetic based principal component analysis (GPCA). Initially the eigenspace is created with eigenvalues and eigenvectors. From this space, the eigenfaces are constructed, and the most relevant eigenfaees have been selected using GPCA. With these eigenfaees, the input images are classified based on Euclidian distance. The proposed method was tested on ORL (Olivetti Research Labs) face database. Experimental results on this database demonstrate that the effectiveness of the proposed method for face recognition has less misclassification in comparison with previous methods.
文摘Face recognition is a kind of biometric technology that recognizes identities through human faces. At first, the speed of machine recognition of human faces was slow and the accuracy was lower than manual recognition. With the rapid development of deep learning and the application of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) in the field of face recognition, the accuracy of face recognition has greatly improved. FaceNet is a deep learning framework commo</span><span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">nly used in face recognition in recent years. FaceNet uses the deep learning model GoogLeNet, which has </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">a high</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> accuracy in face recognition. However, its network structure is too large, which causes the </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">FaceNet</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> to run at a low speed. Therefore, to improve the running speed without affecting the recognition accuracy of FaceNet, this paper proposes a lightweight FaceNet model based on MobileNet. This article mainly does the following works:</span></span></span><span style="font-family:""> </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Based on the analysis of the low running speed of FaceNet and the principle of MobileNet, a lightweight FaceNet model based on MobileNet is proposed.

文摘Biometric security systems based on facial characteristics face a challenging task due to variability in the intrapersonal facial appearance of subjects traced to factors such as pose, illumination, expression and aging. This paper innovates as it proposes a deep learning and set-based approach to face recognition subject to aging. The images for each subject taken at various times are treated as a single set, which is then compared to sets of images belonging to other subjects. Facial features are extracted using a convolutional neural network characteristic of deep learning. Our experimental results show that set-based recognition performs better than the singleton-based approach for both face identification and face verification. We also find that by using set-based recognition, it is easier to recognize older subjects from younger ones rather than younger subjects from older ones.
