These supporting mechanisms facilitate the development, deployment, and integration of distributed systems, as well as increase the occasions for distributed systems to interact in an undesired way. The undesired interactions may cause serious problems, such as quality violation, function loss, and even system crash. In this paper, the problem is studied from the perspective of the feature interaction problem （FIP） in telecom, and an online approach to the detection and solution on runtime systems is proposed. Based on a classification of middleware enabled interactions, the existence of FIP in middleware based systems is illustrated by four real cases and a conceptual comparison between middleware based systems and telecom systems. After that, runtime software architecture is employed to facilitate the online detection and solution of FIP. The approach is demonstrated on J2EE （Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition） and applied to detect and resolve all of the four real cases.展开更多

First, we proposed the composite interactive feature representation which encodes both the spatial distribution of local motion of interest points and their contexts. Furthermore, local self-similarity descriptor represented by temporal-pyramid bag of words(BOW) was applied to decreasing the influence of observation angle change on recognition and retaining the temporal information. For the purpose of exploring latent correlation between different interactive behaviors from different views and retaining specific information of each behaviors, graph shared multi-task learning was used to learn the corresponding interactive behavior recognition model. Experiment results showed the effectiveness of the proposed method in comparison with other state-of-the-art methods on the public databases CASIA, i3Dpose dataset and self-built database for interactive behavior recognition.展开更多

There are various features related to the essentiality of proteins, such as biological and topological features. Many computational methods have been developed to identify essential proteins by using these features. However, it is still a big challenge to design an effective method that is able to select suitable features and integrate them to predict essential proteins. In this work, we first collect 26 features, and use SVM-RFE to select some of them to create a feature space for predicting essential proteins, and then remove the features that share the biological meaning with other features in the feature space according to their Pearson Correlation Coefficients（PCC）. The experiments are carried out on S. cerevisiae data. Six features are determined as the best subset of features. To assess the prediction performance of our method, we further compare it with some machine learning methods, such as SVM, Naive Bayes, Bayes Network, and NBTree when inputting the different number of features. The results show that those methods using the 6 features outperform that using other features, which confirms the effectiveness of our feature selection method for essential protein prediction.展开更多

文摘Interactivity in online newspapers is the focus of this chapter in eliciting readers’evaluation of Zambian online newspapers.This aspect of the study investigates and characterises the motivations(gratification sought)for use of interactivity features(“process motivation”)and how widely they are used.It also attempts to ascertain the gratification obtained from their use among readers.The probable relationships between use of the interactivity features(“audience interactivity”)and gratification obtained from them(“process gratification”)and the impact of the perceived credibility of the online newspapers on gratification are also examined.Past studies present mixed results on use of interactivity and gratification obtained from it.This study finds that use of interactivity in Zambian online newspapers is at a low level,although among the three broad categorisations of features of online newspapers,interactivity attracts greater use than hyper-textuality and multi-mediality.Human interactivity features-“knowing what others think about an issue”,“chat on the Facebook page of the newspaper”,“ability to navigate on the Facebook page of the newspaper”,and“posting own comments on stories”-are the main motivations for use of online newspapers,the most frequently used,and the most gratifying to the readers.While readers express an interest in interacting with other readers via online newspapers,they seem less interested in posting their own stories as“citizen journalists”and linking up with the publishers and editors.This finding challenges the notion that all new media are catalysts of participatory and cyclic communication.

文摘To address the challenges of multi-scale differences,complex background interference,and unstable small target positioning in visual inspection of power towers,the existing methods still face issues such as insufficient feature interaction and unstable confidence estimation,which lead to performance degradation in complex backgrounds and occlusion conditions.This paper proposes a precise inspection method for key power tower components using autonomous drone positioning.To this end,this paper makes three key improvements to the you only look once version 11(YOLOv11)framework.First,it constructs C3k2-adaptive multi-receptive field block(C3k2-AMRB),combining multiple dilated convolutions with a reparameterization mechanism to significantly expand the receptive field and enhance multi-scale feature extraction.Second,it designs a hierarchical wavelet interaction unit(HWIU),which leverages high-and low-frequency decomposition and reconstruction of wavelet transform(WT)to achieve cross-scale semantic alignment,enhancing feature discriminability in complex backgrounds.Third,it proposes a distribution-aware confidence refinement head(DACR-Head),which adaptively calibrates classification confidence based on the statistical characteristics of the predicted bounding-box corner distribution,improving the localization stability and accuracy of small targets.Experiments on the inspection of power line assets dataset(InsPLAD)dataset show that the integrated approach achieves a component detection accuracy at intersection over union(IoU)=0.5(CDA_(50))of 88.3%and a component detection robustness(CDR_(50:95))of 69.8%,respectively,improvements of 4.4%and 7.0%over the baseline.

文摘Occlusion relationship reasoning aims to locate where an object occludes others and estimate the depth order of these objects in three-dimensional(3D)space from a two-dimensional(2D)image.The former sub-task demands both the accurate location and the semantic indication of the objects,while the latter sub-task needs the depth order among the objects.Although several insightful studies have been proposed,a key characteristic of occlusion relationship reasoning,i.e.,the specialty and complementarity between occlusion boundary detection and occlusion orientation estimation,is rarely discussed.To verify this claim,in this paper,we integrate these properties into a unified end-to-end trainable network,namely the feature separation and interaction network(FSINet).It contains a shared encoder-decoder structure to learn the complementary property between the two sub-tasks,and two separated paths to learn specialized properties of the two sub-tasks.Concretely,the occlusion boundary path contains an image-level cue extractor to capture rich location information of the boundary,a detail-perceived semantic feature extractor,and a contextual correlation extractor to acquire refined semantic features of objects.In addition,a dual-flow cross detector has been customized to alleviate false-positive and false-negative boundaries.For the occlusion orientation estimation path,a scene context learner has been designed to capture the depth order cue around the boundary.In addition,two stripe convolutions are built to judge the depth order between objects.The shared decoder supplies the feature interaction,which plays a key role in exploiting the complementarity of the two paths.Extensive experimental results on the PIOD and BSDS ownership datasets reveal the superior performance of FSINet over state-of-the-art alternatives.Additionally,abundant ablation studies are offered to demonstrate the effectiveness of our design.

文摘Gaze following aims to interpret human-scene interactions by predicting the person’s focal point of gaze.Prevailing approaches often adopt a two-stage framework,whereby multi-modality information is extracted in the initial stage for gaze target prediction.Consequently,the efficacy of these methods highly depends on the precision of the previous modality extraction.Others use a single-modality approach with complex decoders,increasing network computational load.Inspired by the remarkable success of pre-trained plain vision transformers(ViTs),we introduce a novel single-modality gaze following framework called ViTGaze.In contrast to previous methods,it creates a novel gaze following framework based mainly on powerful encoders(relative decoder parameters less than 1%).Our principal insight is that the inter-token interactions within self-attention can be transferred to interactions between humans and scenes.Leveraging this presumption,we formulate a framework consisting of a 4D interaction encoder and a 2D spatial guidance module to extract human-scene interaction information from self-attention maps.Furthermore,our investigation reveals that ViT with self-supervised pre-training has an enhanced ability to extract correlation information.Many experiments have been conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance among all single-modality methods(3.4%improvement in the area under curve score,5.1% improvement in the average precision)and very comparable performance against multi-modality methods with 59% fewer parameters.
文摘Online advertising click-through rate(CTR) prediction is aimed at predicting the probability of a user clicking an ad,and it has undergone considerable development in recent years.One of the hot topics in this area is the construction of feature interactions to facilitate accurate prediction.Factorization machine provides second-order feature interactions by linearly multiplying hidden feature factors.However,real-world data present a complex and nonlinear structure.Hence,second-order feature interactions are unable to represent cross information adequately.This drawback has been addressed using deep neural networks(DNNs),which enable high-order nonlinear feature interactions.However,DNN-based feature interactions cannot easily optimize deep structures because of the absence of cross information in the original features.In this study,we propose an effective CTR prediction algorithm called CAN,which explicitly exploits the benefits of attention mechanisms and DNN models.The attention mechanism is used to provide rich and expressive low-order feature interactions and facilitate the optimization of DNN-based predictors that implicitly incorporate high-order nonlinear feature interactions.The experiments using two real datasets demonstrate that our proposed CAN model performs better than other cross feature-and DNN-based predictors.

文摘Essential proteins are vital to the survival of a cell. There are various features related to the essentiality of proteins, such as biological and topological features. Many computational methods have been developed to identify essential proteins by using these features. However, it is still a big challenge to design an effective method that is able to select suitable features and integrate them to predict essential proteins. In this work, we first collect 26 features, and use SVM-RFE to select some of them to create a feature space for predicting essential proteins, and then remove the features that share the biological meaning with other features in the feature space according to their Pearson Correlation Coefficients（PCC）. The experiments are carried out on S. cerevisiae data. Six features are determined as the best subset of features. To assess the prediction performance of our method, we further compare it with some machine learning methods, such as SVM, Naive Bayes, Bayes Network, and NBTree when inputting the different number of features. The results show that those methods using the 6 features outperform that using other features, which confirms the effectiveness of our feature selection method for essential protein prediction.

文摘Acoustic quality detection is vital in the manufactured products quality control field since it represents the conditions of machines or products.Recent work employed machine learning models in manufactured audio data to detect anomalous patterns.A major challenge is how to select applicable audio features to meliorate model’s accuracy and precision.To relax this challenge,we extract and analyze three audio feature types including Time Domain Feature,Frequency Domain Feature,and Cepstrum Feature to help identify the potential linear and non-linear relationships.In addition,we design a visual analysis system,namely AFExplorer,to assist data scientists in extracting audio features and selecting potential feature combinations.AFExplorer integrates four main views to present detailed distribution and relevance of the audio features,which helps users observe the impact of features visually in the feature selection.We perform the case study with AFExplore according to the ToyADMOS and MIMII Dataset to demonstrate the usability and effectiveness of the proposed system.
文摘Multimodal Sentiment analysis refers to analyzing emotions in infor-mation carriers containing multiple modalities.To better analyze the features within and between modalities and solve the problem of incomplete multimodal feature fusion,this paper proposes a multimodal sentiment analysis model MIF(Modal Interactive Feature Encoder For Multimodal Sentiment Analysis).First,the global features of three modalities are obtained through unimodal feature extraction networks.Second,the inter-modal interactive feature encoder and the intra-modal interactive feature encoder extract similarity features between modal-ities and intra-modal special features separately.Finally,unimodal special features and the interaction information between modalities are decoded to get the fusion features and predict sentimental polarity results.We conduct extensive experi-ments on three public multimodal datasets,including one in Chinese and two in English.The results show that the performance of our approach is significantly improved compared with benchmark models.

文摘Object detection serves as a challenging yet crucial task in computer vision.Despite significant advancements,modern detectors remain struggling with task alignment between localization and classification.In this paper,Global Collaborative Learning(GCL)is introduced to address these challenges from often-overlooked perspectives.First,the essence of GCL is reflected in the label assignment of the detector.Adjusting the loss function to transform samples with strong localization yet weak classification into high-quality samples in both tasks,provides more effective training signals,enabling the model to capture key consistent features.Second,the spirit of GCL is embodied in the head design.By enabling global feature interaction within the decoupled head,the approach ensures that final predictions are made more comprehensively and robustly,thereby preventing the two independent branches from converging into suboptimal solutions for their respective tasks.Extensive experiments on the challenging MS COCO and CrowdHuman datasets demonstrate that the proposed GCL method substantially enhances performance and generalization capabilities.
