Abstract Deep learning-based semantic communication has achieved remarkable progress with CNNs and Transformers. However, CNNs exhibit constrained performance in high-resolution image transmission, while Transformers incur high computational cost due to quadratic complexity. Recently, VMamba, a novel state space model with linear complexity and exceptional long-range dependency modeling capabilities, has shown great potential in computer vision tasks. Inspired by this, we propose MNTSCC, an efficient VMamba-based nonlinear joint source-channel coding (JSCC) model for wireless image transmission. Specifically, MNTSCC comprises a VMamba-based nonlinear transform module, an MCAM entropy model, and a JSCC module. In the encoding stage, the… More >

Abstract Using the improved prospect theory with the linear transformations of rewarding good and punishing bad (RGPBIT), a new investment ranking model for power grid construction projects (PGCPs) is proposed. Given the uncertainty of each index value under the market environment, fuzzy numbers are used to describe qualitative indicators and interval numbers are used to describe quantitative ones. Taking into account decision-maker’s subjective risk attitudes, a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method based on improved prospect theory is proposed. First, the [−1, 1] RGPBIT operator is proposed to normalize the original data, to obtain the best and worst More >

Abstract An image can be degraded due to many environmental factors like foggy or hazy weather, low light conditions, extra light conditions etc. Image captured under the poor light conditions is generally known as non-uniform illumination image. Non-uniform illumination hides some important information present in an image during the image capture Also, it degrades the visual quality of image which generates the need for enhancement of such images. Various techniques have been present in literature for the enhancement of such type of images. In this paper, a novel architecture has been proposed for enhancement of poor… More >

Abstract This paper presents an efficient strategy for the accurate evaluation of near-boundary solutions in the regularized meshless method (RMM), also known as the boundary layer effect associated with the boundary element method. The RMM uses the double layer potentials as its interpolation basis function. When the field point is close to the boundary, the basis function will present nearly strongand hyper-singularities, respectively, for potentials and its derivative. This paper represents the first attempt to apply a nonlinear transformation, based on sinh function, to the accurate evaluation of nearly singular kernels associated with the RMM. The More >
