Abstract In the realm of low-level vision tasks, such as image deraining and dehazing, restoring images distorted by adverse weather conditions remains a significant challenge. The emergence of abundant computational resources has driven the dominance of deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), supplanting traditional methods reliant on prior knowledge. However, the evolution of CNN architectures has tended towards increasing complexity, utilizing intricate structures to enhance performance, often at the expense of computational efficiency. In response, we propose the Selective Kernel Dense Residual M-shaped Network (SKDRMNet), a flexible solution adept at balancing computational efficiency with network accuracy. A… More >

Abstract The analysis of microstates in EEG signals is a crucial technique for understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of brain electrical activity. Traditional methods such as Atomic Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering (AAHC), K-means clustering, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Independent Component Analysis (ICA) are limited by a fixed number of microstate maps and insufficient capability in cross-task feature extraction. Tackling these limitations, this study introduces a Global Map Dissimilarity (GMD)-driven density canopy K-means clustering algorithm. This innovative approach autonomously determines the optimal number of EEG microstate topographies and employs Gaussian kernel density estimation alongside the GMD index for… More >

Abstract With the continuous advancement of China’s “peak carbon dioxide emissions and Carbon Neutrality” process, the proportion of wind power is increasing. In the current research, aiming at the problem that the forecasting model is outdated due to the continuous updating of wind power data, a short-term wind power forecasting algorithm based on Incremental Learning-Bagging Deep Hybrid Kernel Extreme Learning Machine (IL-Bagging-DHKELM) error affinity propagation cluster analysis is proposed. The algorithm effectively combines deep hybrid kernel extreme learning machine (DHKELM) with incremental learning (IL). Firstly, an initial wind power prediction model is trained using the Bagging-DHKELM… More >

Abstract Automatic crack detection of cement pavement chiefly benefits from the rapid development of deep learning, with convolutional neural networks (CNN) playing an important role in this field. However, as the performance of crack detection in cement pavement improves, the depth and width of the network structure are significantly increased, which necessitates more computing power and storage space. This limitation hampers the practical implementation of crack detection models on various platforms, particularly portable devices like small mobile devices. To solve these problems, we propose a dual-encoder-based network architecture that focuses on extracting more comprehensive fracture feature… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The use of metamaterial enhances the performance of a specific class of antennas known as metamaterial antennas. The radiation cost and quality factor of the antenna are influenced by the size of the antenna. Metamaterial antennas allow for the circumvention of the bandwidth restriction for small antennas. Antenna parameters have recently been predicted using machine learning algorithms in existing literature. Machine learning can take the place of the manual process of experimenting to find the ideal simulated antenna parameters. The accuracy of the prediction will be primarily dependent on the model that is used. In… More >

Abstract Because of the features involved with their varied kernels, differential operators relying on convolution formulations have been acknowledged as effective mathematical resources for modeling real-world issues. In this paper, we constructed a stochastic fractional framework of measles spreading mechanisms with dual medication immunization considering the exponential decay and Mittag-Leffler kernels. In this approach, the overall population was separated into five cohorts. Furthermore, the descriptive behavior of the system was investigated, including prerequisites for the positivity of solutions, invariant domain of the solution, presence and stability of equilibrium points, and sensitivity analysis.

Abstract A Recommender System (RS) is a crucial part of several firms, particularly those involved in e-commerce. In conventional RS, a user may only offer a single rating for an item-that is insufficient to perceive consumer preferences. Nowadays, businesses in industries like e-learning and tourism enable customers to rate a product using a variety of factors to comprehend customers’ preferences. On the other hand, the collaborative filtering (CF) algorithm utilizing AutoEncoder (AE) is seen to be effective in identifying user-interested items. However, the cost of these computations increases nonlinearly as the number of items and users… More >

Abstract In this paper, we consider the Chan–Vese (C-V) model for image segmentation and obtain its numerical solution accurately and efficiently. For this purpose, we present a local radial basis function method based on a Gaussian kernel (GA-LRBF) for spatial discretization. Compared to the standard radial basis function method, this approach consumes less CPU time and maintains good stability because it uses only a small subset of points in the whole computational domain. Additionally, since the Gaussian function has the property of dimensional separation, the GA-LRBF method is suitable for dealing with isotropic images. Finally, a More > Graphic Abstract
