Abstract Discovering floating wastes, especially bottles on water, is a crucial research problem in environmental hygiene. Nevertheless, real-world applications often face challenges such as interference from irrelevant objects and the high cost associated with data collection. Consequently, devising algorithms capable of accurately localizing specific objects within a scene in scenarios where annotated data is limited remains a formidable challenge. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an object discovery by request problem setting and a corresponding algorithmic framework. The proposed problem setting aims to identify specified objects in scenes, and the associated algorithmic framework comprises pseudo… More >

Abstract The social internet of things (SIoT) is one of the emerging paradigms that was proposed to solve the problems of network service discovery, navigability, and service composition. The SIoT aims to socialize the IoT devices and shape the interconnection between them into social interaction just like human beings. In IoT, an object can offer multiple services and different objects can offer the same services with different parameters and interest factors. The proliferation of offered services led to difficulties during service customization and service filtering. This problem is known as service explosion. The selection of suitable… More >
