Co-saliency detection, an emerging research area in saliency detection, aims to extract the common saliency from the multi images. The extracted co-saliency map has been utilized in various applications, such as in co-segmentation, co-recognition and so on. With the rapid development of image acquisition technology, the original digital images are becoming more and more clearly. The existing co-saliency detection methods processing these images need enormous computer memory along with high computational complexity. These limitations made it hard to satisfy the demand of real-time user interaction. This paper proposes a fast co-saliency detection method based on the image block partition and sparse feature extraction method (BSFCoS). Firstly, the images are divided into several uniform blocks, and the low-level features are extracted from Lab and RGB color spaces. In order to maintain the characteristics of the original images and reduce the number of feature points as well as possible, Truncated Power for sparse principal components method are employed to extract sparse features. Furthermore, K-Means method is adopted to cluster the extracted sparse features, and calculate the three salient feature weights. Finally, the co-saliency map was acquired from the feature fusion of the saliency map for single image and multi images. The proposed method has been tested and simulated on two benchmark datasets: Co-saliency Pairs and CMU Cornell iCoseg datasets. Compared with the existing co-saliency methods, BSFCoS has a significant running time improvement in multi images processing while ensuring detection results. Lastly, the co-segmentation method based on BSFCoS is also given and has a better co-segmentation performance.

The rapid development in technology and the spread of editing image software has led to spread forgery in digital media. It is now not easy by just looking at an image to know whether the image is original or has been tampered. This article describes a new image splicing detection method based on noise level as a major feature to detect the tempered region. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is exploited to estimate the noise of image and the K-means clustering for authentic and forged region classification. The proposed method adopts Columbia Uncompressed Image Splicing Dataset for evaluation and effectiveness. The experimental results for 360 images demonstrate that the method achieved an 83.33% for detecting tampered region this percentage represent a promising result competed with Stat-of-art splicing detection methods.

We proposed a novel saliency detection method based on histogram contrast algorithm and images captured with WMSN (wireless multimedia sensor network) for practical wild animal monitoring purpose. Current studies on wild animal monitoring mainly focus on analyzing images with high resolution, complex background, and nonuniform illumination features. Most current visual saliency detection methods are not capable of completing the processing work. In this algorithm, we firstly smoothed the image texture and reduced the noise with the help of structure extraction method based on image total variation. After that, the saliency target edge information was obtained by Canny operator edge detection method, which will be further improved by position saliency map according to the Hanning window. In order to verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, field-captured wild animal images were tested by using our algorithm in terms of visual effect and detection efficiency. Compared with histogram contrast algorithm, the result shows that the rate of average precision, recall and F-measure improved by 18.38%, 19.53%, 19.06%, respectively, when processing the captured animal images.

Ship detection in panchromatic optical remote sensing images is faced with two major challenges, locating candidate regions from complex backgrounds quickly and describing ships effectively to reduce false alarms. Here, a practical method was proposed to solve these issues. Firstly, we constructed a novel visual saliency detection method based on a hyper-complex Fourier transform of a quaternion to locate regions of interest (ROIs), which can improve the accuracy of the subsequent discrimination process for panchromatic images, compared with the phase spectrum quaternary Fourier transform (PQFT) method. In addition, the Gaussian filtering of different scales was performed on the transformed result to synthesize the best saliency map. An adaptive method based on GrabCut was then used for binary segmentation to extract candidate positions. With respect to the discrimination stage, a rotation-invariant modified local binary pattern (LBP) description was achieved by combining shape, texture, and moment invariant features to describe the ship targets more powerfully. Finally, the false alarms were eliminated through SVM training. The experimental results on panchromatic optical remote sensing images demonstrated that the presented saliency model under various indicators is superior, and the proposed ship detection method is accurate and fast with high robustness, based on detailed comparisons to existing efforts.

DNA-binding protein (DBP) is a protein with a special DNA binding domain that is associated with many important molecular biological mechanisms. Rapid development of computational methods has made it possible to predict DBP on a large scale; however, existing methods do not fully integrate DBP-related features, resulting in rough prediction results. In this article, we develop a DNA-binding protein identification method called KK-DBP. To improve prediction accuracy, we propose a feature extraction method that fuses multiple PSSM features. The experimental results show a prediction accuracy on the independent test dataset PDB186 of 81.22%, which is the highest of all existing methods.

Studies based on object-based image analysis (OBIA) representing the paradigm shift in change detection (CD) have achieved remarkable progress in the last decade. Their aim has been developing more intelligent interpretation analysis methods in the future. The prediction effect and performance stability of random forest (RF), as a new kind of machine learning algorithm, are better than many single predictors and integrated forecasting method. In this paper, we present a novel CD approach for high-resolution remote sensing images, which incorporates visual saliency and RF. First, highly homogeneous and compact image super-pixels are generated using super-pixel segmentation, and the optimal segmentation result is obtained through image superimposition and principal component analysis (PCA). Second, saliency detection is used to guide the search of interest regions in the initial difference image obtained via the improved robust change vector analysis (RCVA) algorithm. The salient regions within the difference image that correspond to the binarized saliency map are extracted, and the regions are subject to the fuzzy <i>c</i>-means (FCM) clustering to obtain the pixel-level pre-classification result, which can be used as a prerequisite for superpixel-based analysis. Third, on the basis of the optimal segmentation and pixel-level pre-classification results, different super-pixel change possibilities are calculated. Furthermore, the changed and unchanged super-pixels that serve as the training samples are automatically selected. The spectral features and Gabor features of each super-pixel are extracted. Finally, superpixel-based CD is implemented by applying RF based on these samples. Experimental results on Ziyuan 3 (ZY3) multi-spectral images show that the proposed method outperforms the compared methods in the accuracy of CD, and also confirm the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Due to the openness of the recommender systems, the attackers are likely to inject a large number of fake profiles to bias the prediction of such systems. The traditional detection methods mainly rely on the artificial features, which are often extracted from one kind of user-generated information. In these methods, fine-grained interactions between users and items cannot be captured comprehensively, leading to the degradation of detection accuracy under various types of attacks. In this paper, we propose an ensemble detection method based on the automatic features extracted from multiple views. Firstly, to collaboratively discover the shilling profiles, the users’ behaviors are analyzed from multiple views including ratings, item popularity, and user-user graph. Secondly, based on the data preprocessed from multiple views, the stacked denoising autoencoders are used to automatically extract user features with different corruption rates. Moreover, the features extracted from multiple views are effectively combined based on principal component analysis. Finally, according to the features extracted with different corruption rates, the weak classifiers are generated and then integrated to detect attacks. The experimental results on the MovieLens, Netflix, and Amazon datasets indicate that the proposed method can effectively detect various attacks.

Classification of electroencephalography (EEG) is the most useful diagnostic and monitoring procedure for epilepsy study. A reliable algorithm that can be easily implemented is the key to this procedure. In this paper a novel signal feature extraction method based on dynamic principal component analysis and nonoverlapping moving window is proposed. Along with this new technique, two detection methods based on extracted sparse features are applied to deal with signal classification. The obtained results demonstrated that our proposed methodologies are able to differentiate EEGs from controls and interictal for epilepsy diagnosis and to separate EEGs from interictal and ictal for seizure detection. Our approach yields high classification accuracy for both single-channel short-term EEGs and multichannel long-term EEGs. The classification performance of the method is also compared with other state-of-the-art techniques on the same datasets and the effect of signal variability on the presented methods is also studied.

With the rapid development of computation technologies, swarm intelligence–based algorithms become an innovative technique used for addressing structural damage detection issues, but traditional swarm intelligence–based structural damage detection methods often face with insufficient detection accuracy and lower robustness to noise. As an exploring attempt, a novel structural damage detection method is proposed to tackle the above deficiency via combining weighted strategy with trace least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso). First, an objective function is defined for the structural damage detection optimization problem by using structural modal parameters; a weighted strategy and the trace Lasso are also involved into the objection function. A novel antlion optimizer algorithm is then employed as a solution solver to the structural damage detection optimization problem. To assess the capability of the proposed structural damage detection method, two numerical simulations and a series of laboratory experiments are performed, and a comparative study on effects of different parameters, such as weighted coefficients, regularization parameters and damage patterns, on the proposed structural damage detection methods are also carried out. Illustrated results show that the proposed structural damage detection method via combining weighted strategy with trace Lasso is able to accurately locate structural damages and quantify damage severities of structures.

Aiming at the problems of intensive background noise, low accuracy, and high computational complexity of the current significant object detection methods, the visual saliency detection algorithm based on Hierarchical Principal Component Analysis (HPCA) has been proposed in the paper. Firstly, the original RGB image has been converted to a grayscale image, and the original grayscale image has been divided into eight layers by the bit surface stratification technique. Each image layer contains significant object information matching the layer image features. Secondly, taking the color structure of the original image as the reference image, the grayscale image is reassigned by the grayscale color conversion method, so that the layered image not only reflects the original structural features but also effectively preserves the color feature of the original image. Thirdly, the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been performed on the layered image to obtain the structural difference characteristics and color difference characteristics of each layer of the image in the principal component direction. Fourthly, two features are integrated to get the saliency map with high robustness and to further refine our results; the known priors have been incorporated on image organization, which can place the subject of the photograph near the center of the image. Finally, the entropy calculation has been used to determine the optimal image from the layered saliency map; the optimal map has the least background information and most prominently saliency objects than others. The object detection results of the proposed model are closer to the ground truth and take advantages of performance parameters including precision rate (PRE), recall rate (REC), and F-measure (FME). The HPCA model’s conclusion can obviously reduce the interference of redundant information and effectively separate the saliency object from the background. At the same time, it had more improved detection accuracy than others.

Fault detection is fundamental to many industrial applications. With the development of system complexity, the number of sensors is increasing, which makes traditional fault detection methods lose efficiency. Metric learning is an efficient way to build the relationship between feature vectors with the categories of instances. In this paper, we firstly propose a metric learning-based fault detection framework in fault detection. Meanwhile, a novel feature extraction method based on wavelet transform is used to obtain the feature vector from detection signals. Experiments on Tennessee Eastman (TE) chemical process datasets demonstrate that the proposed method has a better performance when comparing with existing methods, for example, principal component analysis (PCA) and fisher discriminate analysis (FDA).
