Opinion Evolution with Information Quality of Public Person and Mass Acceptance Threshold

Public persons are nodes with high attention to public events, and their opinions can directly affect the development on events. However, because of rationality, the followers' acceptance to the public persons' opinions will depend on the information trait on public persons' opinions and own comprehension. To study how different opinions of the public persons guide different followers, we build an opinion dynamics model, which would provide a theoretical method for public opinion management. Based on the classical bounded confidence model, we extract the information quality variables and individual trust threshold and introduce them to construct our two-stage opinion evolution model. And then in the simulation experiments, we analyze the different effects of opinion information quality, opinion release time, and frequency on public opinion by adjusting the different parameters. Finally, we added a case to compare real data, the data from classical model simulation and the data from improved model simulation to verify the effectiveness on our model. The research found that the more sufficient the argument and the more moderate the attitude, the more likely to guide the public opinion. If public person holds different opinions and different information quality, he should choose different time to present his opinion to achieve ideal guide effect. When public person holds neutral opinion and the information quality is relatively general, he/she can intervene in public opinion as soon as possible to control final public opinion; when public person holds extreme opinion and the information quality is relatively high, he/she can choose to express opinion after a certain period on public opinion evolution, which is conducive to improve the guidance effect on public opinion. The frequency of releasing opinions of public person consistently has a positive impact on the final public opinion.

Multi-threshold Image Segmentation based on an improved Salp Swarm Algorithm: Case study of breast cancer pathology images

Breast cancer poses a significant risk to women's health, and it is essential to provide proper diagnostic support. Medical image processing technology is a key component of all supporting diagnostic techniques, with Image Segmentation (IS) being one of its primary steps. Among various methods, Multilevel Image Segmentation (MIS) is considered one of the most effective and straightforward approaches. Many researchers have attempted to improve the quality of image segmentation by combining different metaheuristic algorithms with MIS. However, these methods often suffer from issues such as low convergence accuracy and a proclivity for converging towards Local Optima (LO). To overcome these challenges, this study introduces an integrated approach that combines the Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA), Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA) and Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. In this manuscript, we introduce an innovative hybrid MIS model termed SDSSA, which leverages elements from the SSA, SMA and DE algorithms. The SDSSA model fundamentally relies on non-local means 2D histogram and 2D Kapur's entropy. To evaluate the proposed method effectively, we compare it initially with similar algorithms using the IEEE CEC2014 benchmark functions. The SDSSA showcases enhanced convergence velocity and precision relative to similar algorithms. Furthermore, this paper proposes an excellent MIS method. Subsequently, IS experiments were conducted separately at both low and high threshold levels. The test results demonstrate that the segmentation outcomes of MIS, at both low and high threshold levels, outperform other methods. This validates SDSSA as a superior segmentation technique that provides practical assistance for future research in breast cancer pathology image processing.

Image classification adversarial attack with improved resizing transformation and ensemble models

Convolutional neural networks have achieved great success in computer vision, but incorrect predictions would be output when applying intended perturbations on original input. These human-indistinguishable replicas are called adversarial examples, which on this feature can be used to evaluate network robustness and security. White-box attack success rate is considerable, when already knowing network structure and parameters. But in a black-box attack, the adversarial examples success rate is relatively low and the transferability remains to be improved. This article refers to model augmentation which is derived from data augmentation in training generalizable neural networks, and proposes resizing invariance method. The proposed method introduces improved resizing transformation to achieve model augmentation. In addition, ensemble models are used to generate more transferable adversarial examples. Extensive experiments verify the better performance of this method in comparison to other baseline methods including the original model augmentation method, and the black-box attack success rate is improved on both the normal models and defense models.

Deep Hybrid Multimodal Biometric Recognition System Based on Features-Level Deep Fusion of Five Biometric Traits

The need for information security and the adoption of the relevant regulations is becoming an overwhelming demand worldwide. As an efficient solution, hybrid multimodal biometric systems utilize fusion to combine multiple biometric traits and sources with improving recognition accuracy, higher security assurance, and to cope with the limitations of the uni-biometric system. In this paper, three strategies for dealing with a feature-level deep fusion of five biometric traits (face, both irises, and two fingerprints) derived from three sources of evidence are proposed and compared. In the first two proposed methodologies, each feature vector is mapped from the feature space into the reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) separately by selecting the appropriate reproducing kernel. In this higher space, where the result is the conversion of nonlinear relations to linear ones, dimensionality reduction algorithms (KPCA, KLDA) and quaternion-based algorithms (KQPCA, KQPCA) are used for the fusion of the feature vectors. In the third methodology, the fusion of feature spaces based on deep learning is administered by combining feature vectors in in-depth and fully connected layers. The experimental results on 6 databases in the proposed hybrid multibiometric system clearly show the multimodal template obtained from the deep fusion of feature spaces; while being secure against spoof attacks and making the system robust, they can use the low dimensionality of the fused vector to increase the accuracy of a hybrid multimodal biometric system to 100%, showing a significant improvement compared with uni-biometric and other multimodal systems.

VIOLA jones algorithm with capsule graph network for deepfake detection

DeepFake is a forged image or video created using deep learning techniques. The present fake content of the detection technique can detect trivial images such as barefaced fake faces. Moreover, the capability of current methods to detect fake faces is minimal. Many recent types of research have made the fake detection algorithm from rule-based to machine-learning models. However, the emergence of deep learning technology with intelligent improvement motivates this specified research to use deep learning techniques. Thus, it is proposed to have VIOLA Jones's (VJ) algorithm for selecting the best features with Capsule Graph Neural Network (CN). The graph neural network is improved by capsule-based node feature extraction to improve the results of the graph neural network. The experiment is evaluated with CelebDF-FaceForencics++ (c23) datasets, which combines FaceForencies++ (c23) and Celeb-DF. In the end, it is proved that the accuracy of the proposed model has achieved 94.

Estimation of ecological footprint based on tourism development indicators using neural networks and multivariate regression

The ecological footprint has attracted a lot of attention in the top tourism destination countries, and this issue may be worrying. This study aims to estimate the ecological footprint, using such indicators as economic growth, natural resources, human capital, and the number of tourists in top tourism destination countries. For this purpose, artificial neural network models and multivariate regression were used for a period of 24 years (1995-2019). The results of the study showed a significant positive correlation between economic growth and ecological footprint. Multivariate regression estimation (R = 0.75) is weaker than neural network models (R = 96.3). Regarding predicting the ecological footprint, neural network models have better performance in comparison with the multivariate regression statistical methods. Accordingly, one can say that for planning ecological footprint, deeper look at neural networks can be more effective in predicting top tourism destination countries.

Multi-Dataset Hyper-CNN for Hyperspectral Image Segmentation of Remote Sensing Images

This research paper presents novel condensed CNN architecture for the recognition of multispectral images, which has been developed to address the lack of attention paid to neural network designs for multispectral and hyperspectral photography in comparison to RGB photographs. The proposed architecture is able to recognize 10-band multispectral images and has fewer parameters than popular deep designs, such as ResNet and DenseNet, thanks to recent advancements in more efficient smaller CNNs. The proposed architecture is trained from scratch, and it outperforms a comparable network that was trained on RGB images in terms of accuracy and efficiency. The study also demonstrates the use of a Bayesian variant of CNN architecture to show that a network able to process multispectral information greatly reduces the uncertainty associated with class predictions in comparison to standard RGB images. The results of the study are demonstrated by comparing the accuracy of the network’s predictions to the images.

A horizontal and vertical crossover cuckoo search: optimizing performance for the engineering problems

As science and technology advance, more engineering-type problems emerge. Technology development has likewise led to an increase in the complexity of optimization problems, and the need for new optimization techniques has increased. The swarm intelligence optimization algorithm is popular among researchers as a flexible, gradient-independent optimization method. The cuckoo search (CS) algorithm in the population intelligence algorithm has been widely used in various fields as a classical optimization algorithm. However, the current CS algorithm can no longer satisfy the performance requirements of the algorithm for current optimization problems. Therefore, in this paper, an improved CS algorithm based on a crossover optimizer (CC) and decentralized foraging (F) strategy is proposed to improve the search ability and the ability to jump out of the local optimum of the CS algorithm (CCFCS). Then, in order to verify the performance of the algorithm, this paper demonstrates the performance of CCFCS from six perspectives: core parameter setting, balance analysis of search and exploitation, the impact of introduced strategies, the impact of population dimension, and comparison with classical algorithms and similar improved algorithms. Finally, the optimization effect of CCFCS on real engineering problems is tested by five classic cases of engineering optimization. According to the experimental results, CCFCS has faster convergence and higher solution quality in the algorithm performance test and maintains the same excellent performance in engineering applications.

A comprehensive and systematic literature review on the big data management techniques in the internet of things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a communication paradigm and a collection of heterogeneous interconnected devices. It produces large-scale distributed, and diverse data called big data. Big Data Management (BDM) in IoT is used for knowledge discovery and intelligent decision-making and is one of the most significant research challenges today. There are several mechanisms and technologies for BDM in IoT. This paper aims to study the important mechanisms in this area systematically. This paper studies articles published between 2016 and August 2022. Initially, 751 articles were identified, but a paper selection process reduced the number of articles to 110 significant studies. Four categories to study BDM mechanisms in IoT include BDM processes, BDM architectures/frameworks, quality attributes, and big data analytics types. Also, this paper represents a detailed comparison of the mechanisms in each category. Finally, the development challenges and open issues of BDM in IoT are discussed. As a result, predictive analysis and classification methods are used in many articles. On the other hand, some quality attributes such as confidentiality, accessibility, and sustainability are less considered. Also, none of the articles use key-value databases for data storage. This study can help researchers develop more effective BDM in IoT methods in a complex environment.

Retinal OCTA Image Segmentation Based on Global Contrastive Learning

The automatic segmentation of retinal vessels is of great significance for the analysis and diagnosis of retinal related diseases. However, the imbalanced data in retinal vascular images remain a great challenge. Current image segmentation methods based on deep learning almost always focus on local information in a single image while ignoring the global information of the entire dataset. To solve the problem of data imbalance in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) datasets, this paper proposes a medical image segmentation method (contrastive OCTA segmentation net, COSNet) based on global contrastive learning. First, the feature extraction module extracts the features of OCTA image input and maps them to the segment head and the multilayer perceptron (MLP) head, respectively. Second, a contrastive learning module saves the pixel queue and pixel embedding of each category in the feature map into the memory bank, generates sample pairs through a mixed sampling strategy to construct a new contrastive loss function, and forces the network to learn local information and global information simultaneously. Finally, the segmented image is fine tuned to restore positional information of deep vessels. The experimental results show the proposed method can improve the accuracy (ACC), the area under the curve (AUC), and other evaluation indexes of image segmentation compared with the existing methods. This method could accomplish segmentation tasks in imbalanced data and extend to other segmentation tasks.

Blind detection of circular image rotation angle based on ensemble transfer regression and fused HOG

Introduction

Aiming at the problems of low accuracy in estimating the rotation angle after the rotation of circular image data within a wide range (0°-360°) and difficulty in blind detection without a reference image, a method based on ensemble transfer regression network, fused HOG, and Rotate Loss is adopted to solve such problems.

Methods

The proposed Rotate Loss was combined to solve the angle prediction error, especially the huge error when near 0°. Fused HOG was mainly used to extract directional features. Then, the feature learning was conducted by the ensemble transfer regression model combined with the feature extractor and the ensemble regressors to estimate an exact rotation angle. Based on miniImageNet and Minist, we made the circular random rotation dataset Circular-ImageNet and random rotation dataset Rot-Minist, respectively.

Results

Experiments showed that for the proposed evaluation index MSE_Rotate, the best single regressor could be as low as 28.79 on the training set of Circular-ImageNet and 2686.09 on the validation set. For MSE_Rotate, MSE, MAE, and RMSE on the test set were 1,702.4325, 0.0263, 0.0881, and 0.1621, respectively. And under the ensemble transfer regression network, it could continue to decrease by 15%. The mean error rate on Rot-Minist could be just 0.59%, significantly working easier in a wide range than other networks in recent years. Based on the ensemble transfer regression model, we also completed the application of image righting blindly.

Evaluation of Fractional-Order Pantograph Delay Differential Equation via Modified Laguerre Wavelet Method

Wavelet transforms or wavelet analysis represent a recently created mathematical tool for assistance in resolving various issues. Wavelets can also be used in numerical analysis. In this study, we solve pantograph delay differential equations using the Modified Laguerre Wavelet method (MLWM), an effective numerical technique. Fractional derivatives are defined using the Caputo operator. The convergence of the suggested strategy is carefully examined. The suggested strategy is straightforward, effective, and simple in comparison with previous approaches. Specific examples are provided to demonstrate the current scenario’s reliability and accuracy. Compared with other methodologies, our results show a higher accuracy level. With the aid of tables and graphs, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach by comparing results of the actual and suggested methods and demonstrating their strong agreement. For better understanding of the proposed method, we show the pointwise solution in the tables provided which confirm the accuracy at each point of the proposed method. Additionally, the results of employing the suggested method to various fractional-orders are compared, which demonstrates that when a value shifts from fractional-order to integer-order, the result approaches the exact solution. Owing to its novelty and scientific significance, the suggested technique can also be used to solve additional nonlinear delay differential equations of fractional-order.

Interactive Display of Images in Digital Exhibition Halls under Artificial Intelligence and Mixed Reality Technology

The attractiveness of traditional exhibition halls to young people is gradually decreasing. Combining modern digital technology to improve the display effect of the exhibition hall can effectively enhance the effect of cultural publicity. This article introduces the technology of image interaction and mixed reality (MR) to improve the historical and cultural propaganda level of the Shaanxi exhibition hall. The advantages of MR technology in applying digital exhibition halls are theoretically expounded. A theoretical plan for Shaanxi history and culture-related display areas is designed using artificial intelligence combined with  MR  technology. In addition, the survey respondent's evaluation of the effect of the new exhibition hall is obtained using a questionnaire survey. The survey results show that 97% of people like the history and culture of Shaanxi but only 13% of the people say they know or know very well about the history and culture of Shaanxi. In addition, 60% of the tourists say they are satisfied with the cultural experience of Shaanxi, and only 27% of the tourists are very satisfied. Also, 96% of tourists are willing to experience Shaanxi's history and culture through digital exhibition halls, and 93% are willing to participate in cultural experience activities based on MR technology. The survey results prove that tourists are satisfied with the effect of the new exhibition hall. Tourists want to add a distinctive form of cultural experience to the exhibition hall. They are willing to accept digital exhibition halls incorporating MR technology and are very happy to participate in the exhibition method of image interaction. This shows that the use of image interactive display based on MR technology in the layout of the exhibition hall is recognized by people and has strong feasibility. This article has reference significance for the digital upgrade of the exhibition hall and the development of the cultural tourism industry.

Metaheuristic algorithm integrated neural networks for well-test analyses of petroleum reservoirs

In recent years, well-test research has witnessed several works to automate reservoir model identification and characterization using computer-assisted models. Since the reservoir model identification is a classification problem, while its characterization is a regression-based task, their simultaneous accomplishment is always challenging. This work combines genetic algorithm optimization and artificial neural networks to identify and characterize homogeneous reservoir systems from well-testing data automatically. A total of eight prediction models, including two classifiers and six regressors, have been trained. The simulated well-test pressure derivatives with varying noise percentages comprise the training samples. The feature selection and hyperparameter tuning have been performed carefully using the genetic algorithm to enhance the prediction accuracy. The models were validated using nine simulated and one real-field test case. The optimized classifier identifies all the reservoir models with a classification accuracy higher than 79%. In addition, the statistical analysis approves that the optimized regressors accurately perform the reservoir characterization with mean relative errors of lower than 4.5%. The minimized manual interference reduces human bias, and the models have significant noise tolerance for practical applications.

The Analysis of Environmental Cost Control of Manufacturing Enterprises Using Deep Learning Optimization Algorithm and Internet of Things

Under the background of the Internet of things (IoT), the problems between the actual production and the environment are also prominent. The environmental cost control in the production process of manufacturing enterprises are discussed to reduce the environmental cost and promote the improvement of production efficiency. First, the environmental cost under the background of IoT is analyzed. Also, the environmental cost control methods in the production process of traditional manufacturing enterprises are investigated. Second, based on the principle of traditional genetic algorithm, the fast-nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) of multiobjective genetic algorithm is introduced to complete the optimization of BP neural network (BPNN) algorithm in deep learning (DL), and the multiobjective GA optimization BPNN model is established. Finally, the multiobjective GA algorithm is used to empirically analyze the environmental cost control capability of a paper-making enterprise. It is compared with enterprises with excellent and poor environmental cost control capabilities in the same industry to find out secondary indexes. The results show that environmental costs have long-term and economic characteristics. The global search ability of BPNN optimized by multiobjective GA is improved, and the local optimal dilemma is avoided. Through empirical analysis, it is found that the comprehensive capability of the environmental cost control of the enterprise is better, scored 79 or more, and the indexes of insufficient development and advantages are obtained. As IoT rapidly develops, it is necessary to further improve the ability of enterprises in environmental cost management, which is very important to promote the development of enterprises and enhance their core competitiveness. It is hoped that this investigation can provide certain reference significance for improving the environmental cost management capability of enterprises, increasing production efficiency, and reducing environmental costs.

Distributed search and fusion for wine label image retrieval

With the popularity of wine culture and the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, wine label image retrieval becomes more and more important. Taking an wine label image as an input, the goal of this task is to return the wine information that the user hopes to know, such as the main brand and sub-brand of the wine. The main challenge in wine label image retrieval task is that there are a large number of wine brands with the imbalance of their sample images which strongly affects the training of the retrieval system based on deep learning. To solve this problem, this article adopts a distribted strategy and proposes two distributed retrieval frameworks. It is demonstrated by the experimental results on the large scale wine label dataset and the Oxford flowers dataset that both our proposed distributed retrieval frameworks are effective and even greatly outperform the previous state-of-the-art retrieval models.

The exploration of facial emotion recognition aims to analyze psychological characteristics of juveniles involved in crimes and promote the application of deep learning to psychological feature extraction. First, the relationship between facial emotion recognition and psychological characteristics is discussed. On this basis, a facial emotion recognition model is constructed by increasing the layers of the convolutional neural network (CNN) and integrating CNN with several neural networks such as VGGNet, AlexNet, and LeNet-5. Second, based on the feature fusion, an optimized Central Local Binary Pattern (CLBP) algorithm is introduced into the CNN to construct a CNN-CLBP algorithm for facial emotion recognition. Finally, the validity analysis is conducted on the algorithm after the preprocessing of face images and the optimization of relevant parameters. Compared with other methods, the CNN-CLBP algorithm has higher accuracy in facial expression recognition, with an average recognition rate of 88.16%. Besides, the recognition accuracy of this algorithm is improved by image preprocessing and parameter optimization, and there is no poor-fitting. Moreover, the CNN-CLBP algorithm can recognize 97% of the happy expressions and surprised expressions, but the misidentification rate of sad expressions is 22.54%. The research result provides data reference and direction for analyzing psychological characteristics of juveniles involved in crimes.

The paper aims to apply the deep learning-based image visualization technology to extract, recognize, and analyze human skeleton movements and evaluate the effect of the deep learning-based human-computer interaction (HCI) system. Dance education is researched. Firstly, the Visual Geometry Group Network (VGGNet) is optimized using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Then, the VGGNet extracts the human skeleton movements in the OpenPose database. Secondly, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network is optimized and recognizes human skeleton movements. Finally, an HCI system for dance education is designed based on the extraction and recognition methods of human skeleton movements. Results demonstrate that the highest extraction accuracy is 96%, and the average recognition accuracy of different dance movements is stable. The effectiveness of the proposed model is verified. The recognition accuracy of the optimized F-Multiple LSTMs is increased to 88.9%, suitable for recognizing human skeleton movements. The dance education HCI system’s interactive accuracy built by deep learning-based visualization technology reaches 92%; the overall response time is distributed between 5.1 s and 5.9 s. Hence, the proposed model has excellent instantaneity. Therefore, the deep learning-based image visualization technology has enormous potential in human movement recognition, and combining deep learning and HCI plays a significant role.

On the Critical Heat Flux Assessment of Micro- and Nanoscale Roughened Surfaces

The boiling crisis or critical heat flux (CHF) is a very critical constraint for any heat-flux-controlled boiling system. The existing methods (physical models and empirical correlations) offer a specific interpretation of the boiling phenomenon, as many of these correlations are considerably influenced by operational variables and surface morphologies. A generalized correlation is virtually unavailable. In this study, more physical mechanisms are incorporated to assess CHF of surfaces with micro- and nano-scale roughness subject to a wide range of operating conditions and working fluids. The CHF data is also correlated by using the Pearson, Kendal, and Spearman correlations to evaluate the association of various surface morphological features and thermophysical properties of the working fluid. Feature engineering is performed to better correlate the inputs with the desired output parameter. The random forest optimization (RF) is used to provide the optimal hyper-parameters to the proposed interpretable correlation and experimental data. Unlike the existing methods, the proposed method is able to incorporate more physical mechanisms and relevant parametric influences, thereby offering a more generalized and accurate prediction of CHF (R² = 0.971, mean squared error = 0.0541, and mean absolute error = 0.185).

Correction Algorithm of Tennis Dynamic Image Serving Path Based on Symmetric Algorithm

The existing target tracking algorithm of the tennis dynamic image serving path cannot correct the serving path in time according to the physical characteristics of the target, resulting in poor correction accuracy and stability. To this end, this paper proposes correction algorithm of tennis dynamic image serving path based on symmetric algorithm. Dynamic images are obtained using the visual acquisition model. On this basis, the contour of the moving target is obtained by the symmetric algorithm, and the complete moving target is obtained by the background difference method. The physical properties of moving objects are analyzed through a tennis serve visual model. The path correction model based on physical features is used to construct the relevant model so as to realize the path correction of the moving target. The experimental results show that the highest accuracy of the algorithm for tennis net and bottom line is 92.88% and 93.10%, respectively, and the average image correction accuracy is 95%. The tracking accuracy of service paths in complex backgrounds is 95%. These data show that the proposed algorithm has high correction accuracy and stability.

Arm Movement Analysis Technology of Wushu Competition Image Based on Deep Learning

In order to improve the recognition accuracy of action poses for athletes in martial arts competitions, it is considered that a single frame pose does not have the temporal features required for sequential actions. Based on deep learning, this paper proposes an image arm movement analysis technology in martial arts competitions. The motion features of the arm are extracted from the bone sequence. Taking human bone motion information as temporal dynamic information, combined with RGB spatial features and depth map, the spatiotemporal features of arm motion data are formed. In this paper, we set up a slow frame rate channel and a fast frame rate channel to detect sequential motion of images. The deep learning model takes 16 frames from each video as samples. The softmax classifier is used to get the classification result of which action category the human action in the video belongs to. The test results show that the accuracy and recall rate of the arm motion analysis technology based on deep learning in martial arts competitions are 95.477% and 92.948%, respectively, with good motion analysis performance.

Gun identification from gunshot audios for secure public places using transformer learning

Increased mass shootings and terrorist activities severely impact society mentally and physically. Development of real-time and cost-effective automated weapon detection systems increases a sense of safety in public. Most of the previously proposed methods were vision-based. They visually analyze the presence of a gun in a camera frame. This research focuses on gun-type (rifle, handgun, none) detection based on the audio of its shot. Mel-frequency-based audio features have been used. We compared both convolution-based and fully self-attention-based (transformers) architectures. We found transformer architecture generalizes better on audio features. Experimental results using the proposed transformer methodology on audio clips of gunshots show classification accuracy of 93.87%, with training loss and validation loss of 0.2509 and 0.1991, respectively. Based on experiments, we are convinced that our model can effectively be used as both a standalone system and in association with visual gun-detection systems for better security.

Directional mutation and crossover boosted ant colony optimization with application to COVID-19 X-ray image segmentation

This paper focuses on the study of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) X-ray image segmentation technology. We present a new multilevel image segmentation method based on the swarm intelligence algorithm (SIA) to enhance the image segmentation of COVID-19 X-rays. This paper first introduces an improved ant colony optimization algorithm, and later details the directional crossover (DX) and directional mutation (DM) strategy, XMACO. The DX strategy improves the quality of the population search, which enhances the convergence speed of the algorithm. The DM strategy increases the diversity of the population to jump out of the local optima (LO). Furthermore, we design the image segmentation model (MIS-XMACO) by incorporating two-dimensional (2D) histograms, 2D Kapur's entropy, and a nonlocal mean strategy, and we apply this model to COVID-19 X-ray image segmentation. Benchmark function experiments based on the IEEE CEC2014 and IEEE CEC2017 function sets demonstrate that XMACO has a faster convergence speed and higher convergence accuracy than competing models, and it can avoid falling into LO. Other SIAs and image segmentation models were used to ensure the validity of the experiments. The proposed MIS-XMACO model shows more stable and superior segmentation results than other models at different threshold levels by analyzing the experimental results.

Computational Analysis of Variational Inequalities Using Mean Extra-Gradient Approach

An improved variational inequality strategy for dealing with variational inequality in a Hilbert space is proposed in this article as an alternative; if Hilbert space is used as the domain of interest, the original extra-gradient method is proposed for resolving variational inequality. This improved variational inequality strategy can be used as a substitute for the original extra-gradient method in some situations. Mann’s mean value method, coupled with the widely used sub-gradient extra-gradient strategy, makes it possible to update all of the previous iterations in a single step, thus saving time and effort. All of this is made feasible via the use of Mann’s mean value technique in conjunction with the convex hull of all prior iterations of the algorithm. It is guaranteed that the mean value iteration will result in an acceptable resolution of a variational inequality issue as long as one or more of the criteria for the averaging matrix are fulfilled. Numerous experiments were performed in order to demonstrate the correctness of the theoretical conclusion obtained.

Next, cutting-edge applications related to ML techniques for pandemic medical issues are discussed. Various problems and challenges linked with ML applications for this pandemic were reviewed. It is expected that additional research will be conducted in the upcoming to limit the spread and catastrophe management. According to the data, most papers are evaluated mainly on characteristics such as flexibility and accuracy, while other factors such as safety are overlooked. Also, Keras was the most often used library in the research studied, accounting for 24.4 percent of the time. Furthermore, medical imaging systems are employed for diagnostic reasons in 20.4 percent of applications.

Coal Mine Personnel Safety Monitoring Technology Based on Uncooled Infrared Focal Plane Technology

In an effort to overcome the difficulty of real-time early warning via traditional infrared imaging technology caused by the complex working environment in coal mines, this paper proposes a mine early warning method based on uncooled infrared focal plane technology. The infrared thermal spectrogram of the detected object was visually displayed in a pseudo-color image with high resolution and high sensitivity, which can realize the real-time detection and early warning of personnel safety in modern mines. The multipoint compression correction algorithm based on human visual characteristics divided the response units of all acquisition units into gray intervals according to a threshold value, then the corresponding parameters were set in different intervals, and finally, each interval was compressed using a two-point correction algorithm. The volume of stored data was the sum of the calibration curve and the data from an encode table corrected by a MATLAB simulation, and the number of CPU cycles was run by a CCS 3.3 clock calculation algorithm. The results showed that when the temperature of the blackbody reached 115 °C, the nonuniformity before correction was 6.32%, and the nonuniformity after the multipoint correction of human eyes was 2.99%, which implied that the algorithm proposed in this paper had good denoising ability. The number of CPU cycles occupied by this algorithm was 18,257,363 cycles/frame with a frequency of 29.97 Hz. The sharpness of the compressed infrared images was obviously improved, and the uniformity was better. The method proposed in this paper can meet the need for modern mine personnel search and rescue, equipment supervision and dangerous area detection and other early warning requirements so as to achieve the goal of developing smart mines and ensuring safety in coal mine production.

PSOWNNs-CNN: A Computational Radiology for Breast Cancer Diagnosis Improvement Based on Image Processing Using Machine Learning Methods

Early diagnosis of breast cancer is an important component of breast cancer therapy. A variety of diagnostic platforms can provide valuable information regarding breast cancer patients, including image-based diagnostic techniques. However, breast abnormalities are not always easy to identify. Mammography, ultrasound, and thermography are some of the technologies developed to detect breast cancer. Using image processing and artificial intelligence techniques, the computer enables radiologists to identify chest problems more accurately. The purpose of this article was to review various approaches to detecting breast cancer using artificial intelligence and image processing. The authors present an innovative approach for identifying breast cancer using machine learning methods. Compared to current approaches, such as CNN, our particle swarm optimized wavelet neural network (PSOWNN) method appears to be relatively superior. The use of machine learning methods is clearly beneficial in terms of improved performance, efficiency, and quality of images, which are crucial to the most innovative medical applications. According to a comparison of the process's 905 images to those of other illnesses, 98.6% of the disorders are correctly identified. In summary, PSOWNNs, therefore, have a specificity of 98.8%. Furthermore, PSOWNNs have a precision of 98.6%, which means that, despite the high number of women diagnosed with breast cancer, only 830 (95.2%) are diagnosed. In other words, 95.2% of images are correctly classified. PSOWNNs are more accurate than other machine learning algorithms, SVM, KNN, and CNN.

Sparse Angle CBCT Reconstruction Based on Guided Image Filtering

Cone-beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT) has the advantages of high ray utilization and detection efficiency, short scan time, high spatial and isotropic resolution. However, the X-rays emitted by CBCT examination are harmful to the human body, so reducing the radiation dose without damaging the reconstruction quality is the key to the reconstruction of CBCT. In this paper, we propose a sparse angle CBCT reconstruction algorithm based on Guided Image FilteringGIF, which combines the classic Simultaneous Algebra Reconstruction Technique(SART) and the Total p-Variation (TpV) minimization. Due to the good edge-preserving ability of SART and noise suppression ability of TpV minimization, the proposed method can suppress noise and artifacts while preserving edge and texture information in reconstructed images. Experimental results based on simulated and real-measured CBCT datasets show the advantages of the proposed method.

Pharmaceutical Reagent Inventory Strategy Based on Contract Shelf Life and Patient Demand

As the function and R&D level of in vitro diagnostic reagents continue to improve, the need for hospitals for in vitro diagnostic reagents in clinical diagnosis also keeps increasing. However, under the influence of management, process, technology, equipment, materials, employees, and other unexpected disturbing factors, the output of reagents often has random uncertainty, and it is difficult to provide the finished products required by orders on time, in quality and quantity. A secondary supply chain consisting of reagent manufacturers, distributors, and hospitals is constructed, and the inventory control models of in vitro diagnostic reagent supply chain under three strategies of centralized decision-making, hospital-owned inventory, and reagent distributor-managed inventory are established, respectively, and the maximum expected returns of the supply chain system under different strategies are analyzed to achieve the optimal production decision of reagent manufacturers and the optimal procurement decision of hospitals. The results show that reducing the random output probability and patient demand uncertainty has a significant effect on improving the expected return of in vitro diagnostic reagent supply chain, and as the random output probability of reagent manufacturers and patient consumption demand uncertainty increase, the strategy of managing inventory by distributors in collaboration is always better than the strategy of managing inventory by hospitals' own warehouses, which can achieve higher expected return and better inventory quantity, but when the out-of-stock cost of hospitals is too high above a certain threshold, the hospital will tend to adopt the self-inventory strategy.

Characterization inference based on joint-optimization of multi-layer semantics and deep fusion matching network

The whole sentence representation reasoning process simultaneously comprises a sentence representation module and a semantic reasoning module. This paper combines the multi-layer semantic representation network with the deep fusion matching network to solve the limitations of only considering a sentence representation module or a reasoning model. It proposes a joint optimization method based on multi-layer semantics called the Semantic Fusion Deep Matching Network (SCF-DMN) to explore the influence of sentence representation and reasoning models on reasoning performance. Experiments on text entailment recognition tasks show that the joint optimization representation reasoning method performs better than the existing methods. The sentence representation optimization module and the improved optimization reasoning model can promote reasoning performance when used individually. However, the optimization of the reasoning model has a more significant impact on the final reasoning results. Furthermore, after comparing each module's performance, there is a mutual constraint between the sentence representation module and the reasoning model. This condition restricts overall performance, resulting in no linear superposition of reasoning performance. Overall, by comparing the proposed methods with other existed methods that are tested using the same database, the proposed method solves the lack of in-depth interactive information and interpretability in the model design which would be inspirational for future improving and studying of natural language reasoning.

Platformance-Based Cross-Border Import Retail E-Commerce Service Quality Evaluation Using an Artificial Neural Network Analysis

The transaction scale of cross-border import e-commerce has grown rapidly around the world. Platform-style cross-border e-commerce does not control the quality, source and transaction process of goods strictly and comprehensively. In terms of customer service quality, the seller's customer service often ignores the customer's problems, and some customer service solutions cannot solve the customer's problems. Serving customers through the network has changed the traditional offline service form without distance, and the service process has a time and space distance. This paper constructs an evaluation index system based on the development of cross-border e-commerce. Through questionnaires, relevant data were obtained and analyzed. Analyze the results based on the collected data on the factors that affect the quality of cross-border import e-commerce services. Responsiveness is the most important factor found by artificial neural networks. The descending order of importance of other factors is fulfillment, diversity, privacy, reliability, compensation, and ease of use.

Performance optimization of support vector machine with oppositional grasshopper optimization for acute appendicitis diagnosis

Preoperative differentiation of complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis is challenging. The research goal was to construct a new intelligent diagnostic rule that is accurate, fast, noninvasive, and cost-effective, distinguishing between complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis. Overall, 298 patients with acute appendicitis from the Wenzhou Central Hospital were recruited, and information on their demographic characteristics, clinical findings, and laboratory data was retrospectively reviewed and applied in this study. First, the most significant variables, including C-reactive protein (CRP), heart rate, body temperature, and neutrophils discriminating complicated from uncomplicated appendicitis, were identified using random forest analysis. Second, an improved grasshopper optimization algorithm-based support vector machine was used to construct the diagnostic model to discriminate complicated appendicitis (CAP) from uncomplicated appendicitis (UAP). The resultant optimal model can produce an average of 83.56% accuracy, 81.71% sensitivity, 85.33% specificity, and 0.6732 Matthews correlation coefficients. Based on existing routinely available markers, the proposed intelligent diagnosis model is highly reliable. Thus, the model can potentially be used to assist doctors in making correct clinical decisions.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging Observation of Frontal Lobe Multidirectional Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Stroke Patients with Memory Impairment

Stroke is a group of diseases caused by the sudden rupture or blockage of blood vessels in the brain that prevent blood from flowing into the brain, resulting in brain tissue damage and dysfunction. Stroke has the characteristics of high morbidity, high disability, and high mortality. To investigate the effect of multidirectional transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the prefrontal lobe in stroke memory disorder. We evaluated 60 patients with poststroke memory impairment who underwent magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) during their admission to our hospital between January 2018 and December 2020. The patients were divided into the prefrontal group (n = 15), dorsolateral group (n = 15), prefrontal + dorsolateral group (n = 15), and pseudostimulation group (n = 15). Assessments using the Rivermead Behavioral Memory Test (RBMT), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), Lovingston Occupational Therapy Cognitive Scale (LOTCA), and frontal lobe fractional anisotropy (FA) were performed before and after treatment. The RBMT, MoCA, and LOTCA scores in the prefrontal + dorsolateral group were significantly higher than those in the dorsolateral, prefrontal, and sham groups (all P < 0.05). The posttreatment FA value of the frontal lobe was significantly higher in the prefrontal + dorsolateral group than in the dorsolateral, prefrontal, and sham stimulation groups (all P < 0.05). The FA value of the frontal lobe was significantly lower in patients with severe memory impairment than in patients with mild-moderate memory impairment (P < 0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.801 (95% CI: 0.678-0.925, P < 0.05), and the optimal cut-off value was 0.34, with a sensitivity and specificity of 81.60% and 72.70%, respectively. Prefrontal lobe + dorsolateral tDCS is beneficial in the treatment of post-stroke memory impairment. The DTI FA value can be useful in determining the degree of memory impairment.

Diagnostic Imaging Analysis and Care of Patients with Endomyocardial Fibrosis Based on Wireless Network Smart Medical Application

The heart is one of the most important organs of the human body, but in recent years heart disease has become one of the human health killers and this paper explores endomyocardial fibrosis, which is a common cardiomyopathy, commonly seen in infants and children, and refers to a diffuse elastic fibrous disease of the endocardium. The purpose of this paper is to explore the diagnostic imaging analysis and care of patients with endocardial heart machine fibrosis using wireless network intelligent medical technology, aiming to provide a new power basis for the treatment of the disease in related patients. This paper proposes a new endocardial segmentation algorithm that aims to process image information using image features, intervene in image noise reduction and smoothing, etc., and use image grayscale values to confirm cardiac cavity grayscale values as a basis for physicians to make certain judgments for the diagnosis of patients with endocardial machine fibrosis. The experimental results show that the atrial fibrillation group is distinctly higher compared to the sinus rhythm group, with values remaining between 25 and 39, which is a significant advantage compared to other methods.

Objective

We systematically analyzed the mechanism of plant-derived drugs alleviating cancer pain in our hospital through network pharmacology, so as to provide the possibility of further application of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of cancer pain.

Methods

We used TCMSP, ETCM, and TCMID databases to mine the active ingredients of plant-derived drugs. We combined OMIM, GeneCards, and DrugBank databases to mine and match the common targets of plant-derived drugs for cancer pain. We used the STRING platform and Cytoscape software to analyze and screen out the core targets. We used GO and KEGG methods to analyze the biological processes, molecular functions, cellular composition, and signaling pathways involved in the reduction of cancer pain by plant-derived drugs.

Results

We found 153 active ingredients from botanical drugs by TCMSP (Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform, TCMSP), ETCM (The Encyclopedia of Traditional Chinese Medicine), and TCMID (Traditional Chinese Medicine Integrated Database) databases, covering 341 protein targets in human body. Combined with OMIM (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man), GeneCards, and DrugBank databases, we excavated and matched 141 targets of plant-derived drugs and cancerous pain diseases. Through the analysis of the STRING platform and Cytoscape software, 19 core targets including TNF, MAPK1, JUN, and IL-6 were screened out. Go and KEGG enrichment showed that plant-derived drugs alleviated cancer pain processes involving 193 biological processes, 47 molecular functions, 22 cell components, and 118 signaling pathways. By screening genes involved in KEGG signaling pathway, it was found that plant-derived drugs were mainly associated with PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway in alleviating cancer pain.

Conclusion

These results indicate that botanical drugs can positively affect the expression of inflammatory factors and apoptotic factors in the process of treatment and relief of cancer pain, which is expected to have a potential therapeutic effect on the relief of cancer pain.

Research on DCE-MRI Images Based on Deep Transfer Learning in Breast Cancer Adjuvant Curative Effect Prediction

Breast cancer is a serious threat to women's physical and mental health. In recent years, its incidence has been on the rise and it has become the top female malignant tumor in China. At present, adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer has become the standard mode of breast cancer treatment, but the response results usually need to be completed after the implementation of adjuvant chemotherapy, and the optimization of the treatment plan and the implementation of breast-conserving therapy need to be based on accurate estimation of the pathological response. Therefore, to predict the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer patients is to find a predictive method that is conducive to individualized choice of chemotherapy regimens. This article introduces the research of DCE-MRI images based on deep transfer learning in breast cancer adjuvant curative effect prediction. Deep transfer learning algorithms are used to process images, and then, the features of breast cancer after adjuvant chemotherapy are collected through image feature collection. Predictions are made, and the research results show that the accuracy of the prediction reaches 70%.

In order to correctly obtain normal tissues and organs and tumor lesions, the research on multimodal medical image segmentation based on deep learning fully automatic segmentation algorithm is more meaningful. This article aims to study the application of deep learning-based artificial intelligence nuclear medicine automated images in tumor diagnosis. This paper studies the methods to improve the accuracy of the segmentation algorithm from the perspective of boundary recognition and shape changeable adaptive capabilities, studies the active contour model based on boundary constraints, and proposes a superpixel boundary-aware convolution network to realize the automatic CT cutting algorithm.

In the comparison of cutting images of malignant tumors, the cutting effect of the algorithm in this paper is about 34% higher than that of the traditional algorithm.

Haze Prediction Model Using Deep Recurrent Neural Network

In recent years, haze pollution is frequent, which seriously affects daily life and production process. The main factors to measure the degree of smoke pollution are the concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the prediction of PM2.5/PM10 concentration. Since PM2.5 and PM10 concentration data are time series, their time characteristics should be considered in their prediction. However, the traditional neural network is limited by its own structure and has some weakness in processing time related data. Recurrent neural network is a kind of network specially used for sequence data modeling, that is, the current output of the sequence is correlated with the historical output. In this paper, a haze prediction model is established based on a deep recurrent neural network. We obtained air pollution data in Chengdu from the China Air Quality Online Monitoring and Analysis Platform, and conducted experiments based on these data. The results show that the new method can predict smog more effectively and accurately, and can be used for social and economic purposes.

Grey Correlation Analysis of Haze Impact Factor PM2.5

In recent years, frequent severe haze weather has formed in China, including some of the most populated areas. We found that these smog-prone areas are often relatively a “local climate” and aim to explore this series of scientific problems. This paper uses remote sensing and data mining methods to study the correlation between haze weather and local climate. First, we select Beijing, China and its surrounding areas (East longitude 115°20′11″–117°40′35″, North latitude 39°21′11″–41°7′51″) as the study area. We collected data from meteorological stations in Beijing and Xianghe from March 2014 to February 2015, and analyzed the meteorological parameters through correlation analysis and a grey correlation model. We study the correlation between the six influencing factors of temperature, dew point, humidity, wind speed, air pressure and visibility and PM2.5, so as to analyze the correlation between haze weather and local climate more comprehensively. The results show that the influence of each index on PM2.5 in descending order is air pressure, wind speed, humidity, dew point, temperature and visibility. The qualitative analysis results confirm each other. Among them, air pressure (correlation 0.771) has the greatest impact on haze weather, and visibility (correlation 0.511) is the weakest.

Study on Reconstruction and Feature Tracking of Silicone Heart 3D Surface

At present, feature-based 3D reconstruction and tracking technology is widely applied in the medical field. In minimally invasive surgery, the surgeon can achieve three-dimensional reconstruction through the images obtained by the endoscope in the human body, restore the three-dimensional scene of the area to be operated on, and track the motion of the soft tissue surface. This enables doctors to have a clearer understanding of the location depth of the surgical area, greatly reducing the negative impact of 2D image defects and ensuring smooth operation. In this study, firstly, the 3D coordinates of each feature point are calculated by using the parameters of the parallel binocular endoscope and the spatial geometric constraints. At the same time, the discrete feature points are divided into multiple triangles using the Delaunay triangulation method. Then, the 3D coordinates of feature points and the division results of each triangle are combined to complete the 3D surface reconstruction. Combined with the feature matching method based on convolutional neural network, feature tracking is realized by calculating the three-dimensional coordinate changes of the same feature point in different frames. Finally, experiments are carried out on the endoscope image to complete the 3D surface reconstruction and feature tracking.

A Haze Prediction Model in Chengdu Based on LSTM

Air pollution with fluidity can influence a large area for a long time and can be harmful to the ecological environment and human health. Haze, one form of air pollution, has been a critical problem since the industrial revolution. Though the actual cause of haze could be various and complicated, in this paper, we have found out that many gases’ distributions and wind power or temperature are related to PM2.5/10’s concentration. Thus, based on the correlation between PM2.5/PM10 and other gaseous pollutants and the timing continuity of PM2.5/PM10, we propose a multilayer long short-term memory haze prediction model. This model utilizes the concentration of O3, CO, NO2, SO2, and PM2.5/PM10 in the last 24 h as inputs to predict PM2.5/PM10 concentrations in the future. Besides pre-processing the data, the primary approach to boost the prediction performance is adding layers above a single-layer long short-term memory model. Moreover, it is proved that by doing so, we could let the network make predictions more accurately and efficiently. Furthermore, by comparison, in general, we have obtained a more accurate prediction.
