Spanning across the Great East Road campus, UNZA has established one of the most extensive computer networks in Zambia, serving a burgeoning community of over 20,000 active users through a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN). However, as the digital landscape continues to evolve, it is besieged with burgeoning challenges that threaten the very fabric of network integrity—cyber security threats and the imperatives of maintaining high Quality of Service (QoS). In an effort to mitigate these threats and ensure network efficiency, the development of a mobile application to monitor temperatures in the server room was imperative. According to L. Wei, X. Zeng, and T. Shen, the use of wireless sensory networks to monitor the temperature of train switchgear contact points represents a cost-effective solution. The system is based on wireless communication technology and is detailed in their paper, “A wireless solution for train switchgear contact temperature monitoring and alarming system based on wireless communication technology”, published in the International Journal of Communications, Network and System Sciences, vol. 8, no. 4, pp. 79-87, 2015 [1]. Therefore, in this study, a mobile application technology was explored for monitoring of temperatures in the server room in order to aid Cisco device performance. Additionally, this paper also explores the hardening of Cisco device security and QoS which are the cornerstones of this study.展开更多

文摘In recent years,the country has spent significant workforce and material resources to prevent traffic accidents,particularly those caused by fatigued driving.The current studies mainly concentrate on driver physiological signals,driving behavior,and vehicle information.However,most of the approaches are computationally intensive and inconvenient for real-time detection.Therefore,this paper designs a network that combines precision,speed and lightweight and proposes an algorithm for facial fatigue detection based on multi-feature fusion.Specifically,the face detection model takes YOLOv8(You Only Look Once version 8)as the basic framework,and replaces its backbone network with MobileNetv3.To focus on the significant regions in the image,CPCA(Channel Prior Convolution Attention)is adopted to enhance the network’s capacity for feature extraction.Meanwhile,the network training phase employs the Focal-EIOU(Focal and Efficient Intersection Over Union)loss function,which makes the network lightweight and increases the accuracy of target detection.Ultimately,the Dlib toolkit was employed to annotate 68 facial feature points.This study established an evaluation metric for facial fatigue and developed a novel fatigue detection algorithm to assess the driver’s condition.A series of comparative experiments were carried out on the self-built dataset.The suggested method’s mAP(mean Average Precision)values for object detection and fatigue detection are 96.71%and 95.75%,respectively,as well as the detection speed is 47 FPS(Frames Per Second).This method can balance the contradiction between computational complexity and model accuracy.Furthermore,it can be transplanted to NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX and quickly detect the driver’s state while maintaining a high degree of accuracy.It contributes to the development of automobile safety systems and reduces the occurrence of traffic accidents.

文摘Currently,most trains are equipped with dedicated cameras for capturing pantograph videos.Pantographs are core to the high-speed-railway pantograph-catenary system,and their failure directly affects the normal operation of high-speed trains.However,given the complex and variable real-world operational conditions of high-speed railways,there is no real-time and robust pantograph fault-detection method capable of handling large volumes of surveillance video.Hence,it is of paramount importance to maintain real-time monitoring and analysis of pantographs.Our study presents a real-time intelligent detection technology for identifying faults in high-speed railway pantographs,utilizing a fusion of self-attention and convolution features.We delved into lightweight multi-scale feature-extraction and fault-detection models based on deep learning to detect pantograph anomalies.Compared with traditional methods,this approach achieves high recall and accuracy in pantograph recognition,accurately pinpointing issues like discharge sparks,pantograph horns,and carbon pantograph-slide malfunctions.After experimentation and validation with actual surveillance videos of electric multiple-unit train,our algorithmic model demonstrates real-time,high-accuracy performance even under complex operational conditions.
文摘Food waste presents a major global environmental challenge,contributing to resource depletion,greenhouse gas emissions,and climate change.Black Soldier Fly Larvae(BSFL)offer an eco-friendly solution due to their exceptional ability to decompose organic matter.However,accurately identifying larval instars is critical for optimizing feeding efficiency and downstreamapplications,as different stages exhibit only subtle visual differences.This study proposes a real-timemobile application for automatic classification of BSFL larval stages.The systemdistinguishes between early instars(Stages 1–4),suitable for food waste processing and animal feed,and late instars(Stages 5–6),optimal for pupation and industrial use.A baseline YOLO11 model was employed,achieving a mAP50-95 of 0.811.To further improve performance and efficiency,we introduce YOLO11-DSConv,a novel adaptation incorporating Depthwise Separable Convolutions specifically optimized for the unique challenges of BSFL classification.Unlike existing YOLO+DSConv implementations,our approach is tailored for the subtle visual differences between larval stages and integrated into a complete end-to-end system.The enhanced model achieved a mAP50-95 of 0.813 while reducing computational complexity by 15.5%.The proposed system demonstrates high accuracy and lightweight performance,making it suitable for deployment on resource-constrained agricultural devices,while directly supporting circular economy initiatives through precise larval stage identification.By integrating BSFL classification with realtime AI,this work contributes to sustainable food wastemanagement and advances intelligent applications in precision agriculture and circular economy initiatives.Additional supplementary materials and the implementation code are available at the following link:YOLO11-DSConv,Server Side,Mobile Application.

文摘Cardiovascular diseases(CVDs)continue to present a leading cause ofmortalityworldwide,emphasizing the importance of early and accurate prediction.Electrocardiogram(ECG)signals,central to cardiac monitoring,have increasingly been integratedwithDeep Learning(DL)for real-time prediction of CVDs.However,DL models are prone to performance degradation due to concept drift and to catastrophic forgetting.To address this issue,we propose a realtime CVDs prediction approach,referred to as ADWIN-GFR that combines Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)layers,for spatial feature extraction,with Gated Recurrent Units(GRU),for temporal modeling,alongside adaptive drift detection and mitigation mechanisms.The proposed approach integratesAdaptiveWindowing(ADWIN)for realtime concept drift detection,a fine-tuning strategy based on Generative Features Replay(GFR)to preserve previously acquired knowledge,and a dynamic replay buffer ensuring variance,diversity,and data distribution coverage.Extensive experiments conducted on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset demonstrate that ADWIN-GFR outperforms standard fine-tuning techniques,achieving an average post-drift accuracy of 95.4%,amacro F1-score of 93.9%,and a remarkably low forgetting score of 0.9%.It also exhibits an average drift detection delay of 12 steps and achieves an adaptation gain of 17.2%.These findings underscore the potential of ADWIN-GFR for deployment in real-world cardiac monitoring systems,including wearable ECG devices and hospital-based patient monitoring platforms.

文摘The automatic stealth task of military time-sensitive targets plays a crucial role in maintaining national military security and mastering battlefield dynamics in military applications.We propose a novel Military Time-sensitive Targets Stealth Network via Real-time Mask Generation(MTTSNet).According to our knowledge,this is the first technology to automatically remove military targets in real-time from videos.The critical steps of MTTSNet are as follows:First,we designed a real-time mask generation network based on the encoder-decoder framework,combined with the domain expansion structure,to effectively extract mask images.Specifically,the ASPP structure in the encoder could achieve advanced semantic feature fusion.The decoder stacked high-dimensional information with low-dimensional information to obtain an effective mask layer.Subsequently,the domain expansion module guided the adaptive expansion of mask images.Second,a context adversarial generation network based on gated convolution was constructed to achieve background restoration of mask positions in the original image.In addition,our method worked in an end-to-end manner.A particular semantic segmentation dataset for military time-sensitive targets has been constructed,called the Military Time-sensitive Target Masking Dataset(MTMD).The MTMD dataset experiment successfully demonstrated that this method could create a mask that completely occludes the target and that the target could be hidden in real time using this mask.We demonstrated the concealment performance of our proposed method by comparing it to a number of well-known and highly optimized baselines.

文摘Nitrogen deposition and water tables are important factors to control soil microbial community structure.However,the specific effects and mechanisms of nitrogen deposition and water tables coupling on bacterial diversity,abundance,and community structure in arid alpine wetlands remain unclear.The nitrogen deposition(0,10,and 20 kg N/(hm^(2)•a))experiments were conducted in the Bayinbulak alpine wetland with different water tables(perennial flooding,seasonal waterlogging,and perennial drying).The 16S rRNA(ribosomal ribonucleic acid)gene sequencing technology was employed to analyze the changes in bacterial community diversity,network structure,and function in the soil.Results indicated that bacterial diversity was the highest under seasonal waterlogging condition.However,nitrogen deposition only affected the bacterial Chao1 and beta diversity indices under seasonal waterlogging condition.The abundance of bacterial communities under different water tables showed significant differences at the phylum and genus levels.The dominant phylum,Proteobacteria,was sensitive to soil moisture and its abundance decreased with decreasing water tables.Although nitrogen deposition led to changes in bacterial abundance,such changes were small compared with the effects of water tables.Nitrogen deposition with 10 kg N/(hm^(2)•a)decreased bacterial edge number,average path length,and robustness.However,perennial flooding and drying conditions could simply resist environmental changes caused by 20 kg N/(hm^(2)•a)nitrogen deposition and their network structure remain unchanged.The sulfur cycle function was dominant under perennial flooding condition,and carbon and nitrogen cycle functions were dominant under seasonal waterlogging and perennial drying conditions.Nitrogen application increased the potential function of part of nitrogen cycle and decreased the potential function of sulfur cycle in bacterial community.In summary,composition of bacterial community in the arid alpine wetland was determined by water tables,and diversity of bacterial community was inhibited by a lower water table.Effect of nitrogen deposition on bacterial community structure and function depended on water tables.

文摘In an era where digital technology is paramount, higher education institutions like the University of Zambia (UNZA) are employing advanced computer networks to enhance their operational capacity and offer cutting-edge services to their academic fraternity. Spanning across the Great East Road campus, UNZA has established one of the most extensive computer networks in Zambia, serving a burgeoning community of over 20,000 active users through a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN). However, as the digital landscape continues to evolve, it is besieged with burgeoning challenges that threaten the very fabric of network integrity—cyber security threats and the imperatives of maintaining high Quality of Service (QoS). In an effort to mitigate these threats and ensure network efficiency, the development of a mobile application to monitor temperatures in the server room was imperative. According to L. Wei, X. Zeng, and T. Shen, the use of wireless sensory networks to monitor the temperature of train switchgear contact points represents a cost-effective solution. The system is based on wireless communication technology and is detailed in their paper, “A wireless solution for train switchgear contact temperature monitoring and alarming system based on wireless communication technology”, published in the International Journal of Communications, Network and System Sciences, vol. 8, no. 4, pp. 79-87, 2015 [1]. Therefore, in this study, a mobile application technology was explored for monitoring of temperatures in the server room in order to aid Cisco device performance. Additionally, this paper also explores the hardening of Cisco device security and QoS which are the cornerstones of this study.

The simulation result shows that this scheme will provide adequate network bandwidth to keep the real-time transport of DSR data over either wirelined or wireless channels.
