In this study, cloud microphysical processes such as raindrop evaporation and cloud water accretion in a double-moment six-class cloud microphysics scheme were revised to enhance the simulation of low clouds using the Global-Regional Integrated Forecast System(GRIST)model. The validation of the revised scheme using a single-column version of the GRIST demonstrated a reasonable reduction in liquid water biases. The revised parameterization simulated medium-and low-level cloud fractions that were in better agreement with the observations than the original scheme. Long-term global simulations indicate the mitigation of the originally overestimated low-level cloud fraction and cloud-water mixing ratio in mid-to high-latitude regions,primarily owing to enhanced accretion processes and weakened raindrop evaporation. The reduced low clouds with the revised scheme showed better consistency with satellite observations, particularly at mid-and high-latitudes. Further improvements can be observed in the simulated cloud shortwave radiative forcing and vertical distribution of total cloud cover. Annual precipitation in mid-latitude regions has also improved, particularly over the oceans, with significantly increased large-scale and decreased convective precipitation.展开更多

文摘Face liveness detection is essential for securing biometric authentication systems against spoofing attacks,including printed photos,replay videos,and 3D masks.This study systematically evaluates pre-trained CNN models—DenseNet201,VGG16,InceptionV3,ResNet50,VGG19,MobileNetV2,Xception,and InceptionResNetV2—leveraging transfer learning and fine-tuning to enhance liveness detection performance.The models were trained and tested on NUAA and Replay-Attack datasets,with cross-dataset generalization validated on SiW-MV2 to assess real-world adaptability.Performance was evaluated using accuracy,precision,recall,FAR,FRR,HTER,and specialized spoof detection metrics(APCER,NPCER,ACER).Fine-tuning significantly improved detection accuracy,with DenseNet201 achieving the highest performance(98.5%on NUAA,97.71%on Replay-Attack),while MobileNetV2 proved the most efficient model for real-time applications(latency:15 ms,memory usage:45 MB,energy consumption:30 mJ).A statistical significance analysis(paired t-tests,confidence intervals)validated these improvements.Cross-dataset experiments identified DenseNet201 and MobileNetV2 as the most generalizable architectures,with DenseNet201 achieving 86.4%accuracy on Replay-Attack when trained on NUAA,demonstrating robust feature extraction and adaptability.In contrast,ResNet50 showed lower generalization capabilities,struggling with dataset variability and complex spoofing attacks.These findings suggest that MobileNetV2 is well-suited for low-power applications,while DenseNet201 is ideal for high-security environments requiring superior accuracy.This research provides a framework for improving real-time face liveness detection,enhancing biometric security,and guiding future advancements in AI-driven anti-spoofing techniques.

文摘Data augmentation plays an important role in boosting the performance of 3D models,while very few studies handle the 3D point cloud data with this technique.Global augmentation and cut-paste are commonly used augmentation techniques for point clouds,where global augmentation is applied to the entire point cloud of the scene,and cut-paste samples objects from other frames into the current frame.Both types of data augmentation can improve performance,but the cut-paste technique cannot effectively deal with the occlusion relationship between the foreground object and the background scene and the rationality of object sampling,which may be counterproductive and may hurt the overall performance.In addition,LiDAR is susceptible to signal loss,external occlusion,extreme weather and other factors,which can easily cause object shape changes,while global augmentation and cut-paste cannot effectively enhance the robustness of the model.To this end,we propose Syn-Aug,a synchronous data augmentation framework for LiDAR-based 3D object detection.Specifically,we first propose a novel rendering-based object augmentation technique(Ren-Aug)to enrich training data while enhancing scene realism.Second,we propose a local augmentation technique(Local-Aug)to generate local noise by rotating and scaling objects in the scene while avoiding collisions,which can improve generalisation performance.Finally,we make full use of the structural information of 3D labels to make the model more robust by randomly changing the geometry of objects in the training frames.We verify the proposed framework with four different types of 3D object detectors.Experimental results show that our proposed Syn-Aug significantly improves the performance of various 3D object detectors in the KITTI and nuScenes datasets,proving the effectiveness and generality of Syn-Aug.On KITTI,four different types of baseline models using Syn-Aug improved mAP by 0.89%,1.35%,1.61%and 1.14%respectively.On nuScenes,four different types of baseline models using Syn-Aug improved mAP by 14.93%,10.42%,8.47%and 6.81%respectively.The code is available at https://github.com/liuhuaijjin/Syn-Aug.
文摘Retinal blood vessel segmentation is crucial for diagnosing ocular and cardiovascular diseases.Although the introduction of U-Net in 2015 by Olaf Ronneberger significantly advanced this field,yet issues like limited training data,imbalance data distribution,and inadequate feature extraction persist,hindering both the segmentation performance and optimal model generalization.Addressing these critical issues,the DEFFA-Unet is proposed featuring an additional encoder to process domain-invariant pre-processed inputs,thereby improving both richer feature encoding and enhanced model generalization.A feature filtering fusion module is developed to ensure the precise feature filtering and robust hybrid feature fusion.In response to the task-specific need for higher precision where false positives are very costly,traditional skip connections are replaced with the attention-guided feature reconstructing fusion module.Additionally,innovative data augmentation and balancing methods are proposed to counter data scarcity and distribution imbalance,further boosting the robustness and generalization of the model.With a comprehensive suite of evaluation metrics,extensive validations on four benchmark datasets(DRIVE,CHASEDB1,STARE,and HRF)and an SLO dataset(IOSTAR),demonstrate the proposed method’s superiority over both baseline and state-of-the-art models.Particularly the proposed method significantly outperforms the compared methods in cross-validation model generalization.
文摘To investigate the applicability of four commonly used color difference formulas(CIELAB,CIE94,CMC(1:1),and CIEDE2000)in the printing field on 3D objects,as well as the impact of four standard light sources(D65,D50,A,and TL84)on 3D color difference evaluations,50 glossy spheres with a diameter of 2cm based on the Sailner J4003D color printing device were created.These spheres were centered around the five recommended colors(gray,red,yellow,green,and blue)by CIE.Color difference was calculated according to the four formulas,and 111 pairs of experimental samples meeting the CIELAB gray scale color difference requirements(1.0-14.0)were selected.Ten observers,aged between 22 and 27 with normal color vision,were participated in this study,using the gray scale method from psychophysical experiments to conduct color difference evaluations under the four light sources,with repeated experiments for each observer.The results indicated that the overall effect of the D65 light source on 3D objects color difference was minimal.In contrast,D50 and A light sources had a significant impact within the small color difference range,while the TL84 light source influenced both large and small color difference considerably.Among the four color difference formulas,CIEDE2000 demonstrated the best predictive performance for color difference in 3D objects,followed by CMC(1:1),CIE94,and CIELAB.

文摘We present a new two-dimensional(2D)map of total Galactic extinction,Av,across the entire dust half-layer from the Sun to extragalactic space for Galactic latitudes|b|>13°,as well as a three-dimensional(3D)map of Av within 2 kpc of the Sun.These maps are based on A_(V)and distance estimates derived from a data set,which utilizes Gaia Data Release 3 parallaxes and multi-band photometry for nearly 100 million dwarf stars.We apply our own corrections to account for significant systematics in this data set.Our 2D map achieves an angular resolution of6'.1,while the 3D map offers a transverse resolution of 3.56 pc—corresponding to variable angular resolution depending on distance—and a radial resolution of 50 pc.In constructing these maps,we pay particular attention to the solar neighborhood(within 200 pc)and to high Galactic latitudes.The 3D map predicts Av from the Sun to any extended object within the Galactic dust layer with an accuracy ofσ(A_(V))=0.1 mag.The 2D map provides Av estimates for the entire dust half-layer up to extragalactic distances with an accuracy ofσ(A_(V))=0.07 mag.We provide A_(V)estimates from our maps for various classes of extended celestial objects with angular size primarily in the range of 2′-40′,including 19,809 galaxies and quasars,170 Galactic globular clusters,458 open clusters,and several hundred molecular clouds from two lists.We also present extinction values for 8293 TypeⅠa supernovae.Comparison of our extinction estimates with those from previous maps and literature sources reveals systematic differences,indicating large-scale spatial variations in the extinction law and suggesting that earlier 2D reddening maps based on infrared dust emission tend to underestimate low extinction values.

文摘The challenge of enhancing the generalization capacity of reinforcement learning(RL)agents remains a formidable obstacle.Existing RL methods,despite achieving superhuman performance on certain benchmarks,often struggle with this aspect.A potential reason is that the benchmarks used for training and evaluation may not adequately offer a diverse set of transferable tasks.Although recent studies have developed bench-marking environments to address this shortcoming,they typically fall short in providing tasks that both ensure a solid foundation for generalization and exhibit significant variability.To overcome these limitations,this work introduces the concept that‘objects are composed of more fundamental components’in environment design,as implemented in the proposed environment called summon the magic(StM).This environment generates tasks where objects are derived from extensible and shareable basic components,facilitating strategy reuse and enhancing generalization.Furthermore,two new metrics,adaptation sensitivity range(ASR)and parameter correlation coefficient(PCC),are proposed to better capture and evaluate the generalization process of RL agents.Experimental results show that increasing the number of basic components of the object reduces the proximal policy optimization(PPO)agent’s training-testing gap by 60.9%(in episode reward),significantly alleviating overfitting.Additionally,linear variations in other environmental factors,such as the training monster set proportion and the total number of basic components,uniformly decrease the gap by at least 32.1%.These results highlight StM’s effectiveness in benchmarking and probing the generalization capabilities of RL algorithms.
文摘Transorbital craniocerebral injury is a relatively rare type of penetrating head injury that poses a significant threat to the ocular and cerebral structures.^([1])The clinical prognosis of transorbital craniocerebral injury is closely related to the size,shape,speed,nature,and trajectory of the foreign object,as well as the incidence of central nervous system damage and secondary complications.The foreign objects reported to have caused these injuries are categorized into wooden items,metallic items,^([2-8])and other materials,which penetrate the intracranial region via fi ve major pathways,including the orbital roof (OR),superior orbital fissure (SOF),inferior orbital fissure(IOF),optic canal (OC),and sphenoid wing.Herein,we present eight cases of transorbital craniocerebral injury caused by an unusual metallic foreign body.
