    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 3787-3803, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.048998

    Abstract Considering the variations in imaging sizes of the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) at different aerial photography heights, as well as the influence of factors such as light and weather, which can result in missed detection and false detection of the model, this paper presents a comprehensive detection model based on the improved lightweight You Only Look Once version 8s (YOLOv8s) algorithm used in natural light and infrared scenes (L_YOLO). The algorithm proposes a special feature pyramid network (SFPN) structure and substitutes most of the neck feature extraction module with the Special deformable convolution feature extraction module (SDCN).

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 3721-3741, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.047325

    Abstract With the increase in ocean exploration activities and underwater development, the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) has been widely used as a type of underwater automation equipment in the detection of underwater environments. However, nowadays AUVs generally have drawbacks such as weak endurance, low intelligence, and poor detection ability. The research and implementation of path-planning methods are the premise of AUVs to achieve actual tasks. To improve the underwater operation ability of the AUV, this paper studies the typical problems of path-planning for the ant colony algorithm and the artificial potential field algorithm.

    Road Traffic Monitoring from Aerial Images Using Template Matching and Invariant Features

    Asifa Mehmood Qureshi1, Naif Al Mudawi2, Mohammed Alonazi3, Samia Allaoua Chelloug4, Jeongmin Park5,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 3683-3701, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.043611

    Abstract Road traffic monitoring is an imperative topic widely discussed among researchers. Systems used to monitor traffic frequently rely on cameras mounted on bridges or roadsides. However, aerial images provide the flexibility to use mobile platforms to detect the location and motion of the vehicle over a larger area. To this end, different models have shown the ability to recognize and track vehicles. However, these methods are not mature enough to produce accurate results in complex road scenes. Therefore, this paper presents an algorithm that combines state-of-the-art techniques for identifying and tracking vehicles in conjunction with image bursts. The extracted frames… More >

    A Real-Time Localization Algorithm for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Based on Continuous Images Processing

    Peng Geng1,*, Annan Yang2, Yan Liu3

    Journal on Artificial Intelligence, Vol.6, pp. 43-52, 2024, DOI:10.32604/jai.2024.047642

    Abstract This article presents a real-time localization method for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) based on continuous image processing. The proposed method employs the Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) algorithm to identify key points in multi-scale space and generate descriptor vectors to match identical objects across multiple images. These corresponding points in the image provide pixel positions, which can be combined with transformation equations, allow for the calculation of the UAV’s actual ground position. Additionally, the physical coordinates of matching points in the image can be obtained, corresponding to the UAV’s physical coordinates. The method achieves real-time positioning and tracking during UAV… More >

    Abstract A novel approach for analyzing coupled vibrations between vehicles and bridges is presented, taking into account spatiotemporal effects and mechanical phenomena resulting from vehicle braking. Efficient modeling and solution of bridge vibrations induced by vehicle deceleration are realized using this method. The method’s validity and reliability are substantiated through numerical examples. A simply supported beam bridge with a corrugated steel web is taken as an example and the effects of parameters such as the initial vehicle speed, braking acceleration, braking location, and road surface roughness on the mid-span displacement and impact factor of the bridge are analyzed.

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol.93, No.2, pp. 387-411, 2024, DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.047573

    Abstract Grassland biomass is an important parameter of grassland ecosystems. The complexity of the grassland canopy vegetation spectrum makes the long-term assessment of grassland growth a challenge. Few studies have explored the original spectral information of typical grasslands in Inner Mongolia and examined the influence of spectral information on aboveground biomass (AGB) estimation. In order to improve the accuracy of vegetation index inversion of grassland AGB, this study combined ground and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) remote sensing technology and screened sensitive bands through ground hyperspectral data transformation and correlation analysis. The narrow band vegetation indices were calculated, and ground and airborne… More >
