Vehicle detection and recognition require demanding advanced computational intelligence and resources in a real-time traffic surveillance system for effective traffic management of all possible contingencies. One of the focus areas of deep intelligent systems is to facilitate vehicle detection and recognition techniques for robust traffic management of heavy vehicles. The following are such sophisticated mechanisms: Support Vector Machine (SVM), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Regional Convolutional Neural Networks (R-CNN), You Only Look Once (YOLO) model, etcetera. Accordingly, it is pivotal to choose the precise algorithm for vehicle detection and recognition, which also addresses the real-time environment. In this study, a comparison of deep learning algorithms, such as the Faster R-CNN, YOLOv2, YOLOv3, and YOLOv4, are focused on diverse aspects of the features. Two entities for transport heavy vehicles, the buses and trucks, constitute detection and recognition elements in this proposed work. The mechanics of data augmentation and transfer-learning is implemented in the model; to build, execute, train, and test for detection and recognition to avoid over-fitting and improve speed and accuracy. Extensive empirical evaluation is conducted on two standard datasets such as COCO and PASCAL VOC 2007. Finally, comparative results and analyses are presented based on real-time.

As an important component of universal sign language and the basis of other sign language learning, finger sign language is of great significance. This paper proposed a novel fingerspelling identification method for Chinese Sign Language via AlexNet-based transfer learning and Adam optimizer, which tested four different configurations of transfer learning. Besides, in the experiment, Adam algorithm was compared with stochastic gradient descent with momentum (SGDM) and root mean square propagation (RMSProp) algorithms, and comparison of using data augmentation (DA) against not using DA was executed to pursue higher performance. Finally, the best accuracy of 91.48% and average accuracy of 89.48 ± 1.16% were yielded by configuration M1 (replacing the last FCL8) with Adam algorithm and using 181x DA, which indicates that our method can identify Chinese finger sign language effectively and stably. Meanwhile, the proposed method is superior to other five state-of-the-art approaches.

The RoboCup Soccer is one of the largest initiatives in the robotics field of research. This initiative considers the soccer match as a challenge for the robots and aims to win a match between humans versus robots by the year of 2050. The vision module is a critical system for the robots because it needs to quickly locate and classify objects of interest for the robot in order to generate the next best action. This work evaluates deep neural networks for the detection of the ball and robots. For such task, five convolutional neural networks architectures were trained for the experiment using data augmentation and transfer learning techniques. The models were evaluated in a test set, yielding promising results in precision and frames per second. The best model achieved an mAP of 0.98 and 14.7 frames per second, running on CPU

Abstract The quantitative precipitation estimate (QPE) algorithm developed and described in Part I was validated using data collected from 33 Weather Surveillance Radar 1988-Doppler (WSR-88D) radars on 37 calendar days east of the Rocky Mountains. A key physical parameter to the algorithm is the parameter alpha α, defined as the ratio of specific attenuation A to specific differential phase KDP. Examination of a significant sample of tropical and continental precipitation events indicated that α was sensitive to changes in drop size distribution and exhibited lower (higher) values when there were lower (higher) concentrations of larger (smaller) rain drops. As part of the performance assessment, the prototype algorithm generated QPEs utilizing a real-time estimated and a fixed α were created and evaluated. The results clearly indicated ~26% lower errors and a 26% better bias ratio with the QPE utilizing a real-time estimated α as opposed to using a fixed value as was done in previous studies. Comparisons between the QPE utilizing a real-time estimated α and the operational dual-polarization (dual-pol) QPE used on the WSR-88D radar network showed the former exhibited ~22% lower errors, 7% less bias, and 5% higher correlation coefficient when compared to quality controlled gauge totals. The new QPE also provided much better estimates for moderate to heavy precipitation events and performed better in regions of partial beam blockage than the operational dual-pol QPE.

In this paper, we proposed an approach to detect oilseed rape pests based on deep learning, which improves the mean average precision (mAP) to 77.14%; the result increased by 9.7% with the original model. We adopt this model to mobile platform to let every farmer able to use this program, which will diagnose pests in real time and provide suggestions on pest controlling. We designed an oilseed rape pest imaging database with 12 typical oilseed rape pests and compared the performance of five models, SSD w/Inception is chosen as the optimal model. Moreover, for the purpose of the high mAP, we have used data augmentation (DA) and added a dropout layer. The experiments are performed on the Android application we developed, and the result shows that our approach surpasses the original model obviously and is helpful for integrated pest management. This application has improved environmental adaptability, response speed, and accuracy by contrast with the past works and has the advantage of low cost and simple operation, which are suitable for the pest monitoring mission of drones and Internet of Things (IoT).
