With the development of emerging intelligent traffic signal (I-SIG) system, congestion-involved security issues are drawing attentions of researchers and developers on the vulnerability introduced by connected vehicle technology, which empowers vehicles to communicate with the surrounding environment such as road-side infrastructure and traffic control units. A congestion attack to the controlled optimization of phases algorithm (COP) of I-SIG is recently revealed. Unfortunately, such analysis still lacks a timely visualized prediction on later congestion when launching an initial attack. In this paper, we argue that traffic image feature-based learning has available knowledge to reflect the relation between attack and caused congestion and propose a novel analysis framework based on cycle generative adversarial network (CycleGAN). Based on phase order, we first extract four-direction road images of one intersection and perform phase-based composition for generating new sample image of training. We then design a weighted L1 regularization loss that considers both last-vehicle attack and first-vehicle attack, to improve the training of CycleGAN with two generators and two discriminators. Experiments on simulated traffic flow data from VISSIM platform show the effectiveness of our approach.

While Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have shown promising performance in image generation, they suffer from numerous issues such as mode collapse and training instability. To stabilize GAN training and improve image synthesis quality with diversity, we propose a simple yet effective approach as Contrastive Distance Learning GAN (CDL-GAN) in this paper. Specifically, we add Consistent Contrastive Distance (CoCD) and Characteristic Contrastive Distance (ChCD) into a principled framework to improve GAN performance. The CoCD explicitly maximizes the ratio of the distance between generated images and the increment between noise vectors to strengthen image feature learning for the generator. The ChCD measures the sampling distance of the encoded images in Euler space to boost feature representations for the discriminator. We model the framework by employing Siamese Network as a module into GANs without any modification on the backbone. Both qualitative and quantitative experiments conducted on three public datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.

Vehicles’ trajectory prediction is a topic with growing interest in recent years, as there are applications in several domains ranging from autonomous driving to traffic congestion prediction and urban planning. Predicting trajectories starting from Floating Car Data (FCD) is a complex task that comes with different challenges, namely Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) interaction, Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) interaction, multimodality, and generalizability. These challenges, especially, have not been completely explored by state-of-the-art works. In particular, multimodality and generalizability have been neglected the most, and this work attempts to fill this gap by proposing and defining new datasets, metrics, and methods to help understand and predict vehicle trajectories. We propose and compare Deep Learning models based on Long Short-Term Memory and Generative Adversarial Network architectures; in particular, our GAN-3 model can be used to generate multiple predictions in multimodal scenarios. These approaches are evaluated with our newly proposed error metrics N-ADE and N-FDE, which normalize some biases in the standard Average Displacement Error (ADE) and Final Displacement Error (FDE) metrics. Experiments have been conducted using newly collected datasets in four large Italian cities (Rome, Milan, Naples, and Turin), considering different trajectory lengths to analyze error growth over a larger number of time-steps. The results prove that, although LSTM-based models are superior in unimodal scenarios, generative models perform best in those where the effects of multimodality are higher. Space-time and geographical analysis are performed, to prove the suitability of the proposed methodology for real cases and management services.

Accurate remote sensing image segmentation can guide human activities well, but current image semantic segmentation methods cannot meet the high-precision semantic recognition requirements of complex images. In order to further improve the accuracy of remote sensing image semantic segmentation, this paper proposes a new image semantic segmentation method based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) and Fully Convolutional Neural Network (FCN). This method constructs a deep semantic segmentation network based on FCN, which can enhance the receptive field of the model. GAN is integrated into FCN semantic segmentation network to synthesize the global image feature information and then accurately segment the complex remote sensing image. Through experiments on a variety of datasets, it can be seen that the proposed method can meet the high-efficiency requirements of complex image semantic segmentation and has good semantic segmentation capabilities.

Considering the problems of low resolution and rough details in existing mural images, this paper proposes a superresolution reconstruction algorithm for enhancing artistic mural images, thereby optimizing mural images. The algorithm takes a generative adversarial network (GAN) as the framework. First, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is used to extract image feature information, and then, the features are mapped to the high-resolution image space of the same size as the original image. Finally, the reconstructed high-resolution image is output to complete the design of the generative network. Then, a CNN with deep and residual modules is used for image feature extraction to determine whether the output of the generative network is an authentic, high-resolution mural image. In detail, the depth of the network increases, the residual module is introduced, the batch standardization of the network convolution layer is deleted, and the subpixel convolution is used to realize upsampling. Additionally, a combination of multiple loss functions and staged construction of the network model is adopted to further optimize the mural image. A mural dataset is set up by the current team. Compared with several existing image superresolution algorithms, the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of the proposed algorithm increases by an average of 1.2–3.3 dB and the structural similarity (SSIM) increases by 0.04 = 0.13; it is also superior to other algorithms in terms of subjective scoring. The proposed method in this study is effective in the superresolution reconstruction of mural images, which contributes to the further optimization of ancient mural images.

Abstract With the dramatic development of the internet of things (IoT), security issues such as identity authentication have received serious attention. The radio frequency (RF) fingerprint of IoT device is an inherent feature, which can hardly be imitated. In this paper, we propose a rogue device identification technique via RF fingerprinting using deep learning-based generative adversarial network (GAN). Being different from traditional classification problems in RF fingerprint identifications, this work focuses on unknown accessing device recognition without prior information. A differential constellation trace figure (DCTF) generation process is initially employed to transform RF fingerprint features from time-domain waveforms to 2-dimensional (2D) figures. Then, by using GAN, which is a kind of unsupervised learning algorithm, we can discriminate rogue devices without any prior information. An experimental verification system is built with 54 ZigBee devices regarded as recognized devices and accessing devices. A USRP receiver is used to capture the signal and identify the accessing devices. Experimental results show that the proposed rogue device identification method can achieve 95% identification accuracy in a real environment.

An increased interest in computer-aided heritage reconstruction has emerged in recent years due to the maturity of sophisticated computer vision techniques. Concretely, feature-based matching methods have been conducted to reassemble heritage assets, yielding plausible results for data that contains enough salient points for matching. However, they fail to register ancient artifacts that have been badly deteriorated over the years. In particular, for monochromatic incomplete data, such as 3D sunk relief eroded decorations, damaged drawings, and ancient inscriptions. The main issue lies in the lack of regions of interest and poor quality of the data, which prevent feature-based algorithms from estimating distinctive descriptors. This paper addresses the reassembly of damaged decorations by deploying a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) to predict the continuing decoration traces of broken heritage fragments. By extending the texture information of broken counterpart fragments, it is demonstrated that registration methods are now able to find mutual characteristics that allow for accurate optimal rigid transformation estimation for fragments alignment. This work steps away from feature-based approaches, hence employing Mutual Information (MI) as a similarity metric to estimate an alignment transformation. Moreover, high-resolution geometry and imagery are combined to cope with the fragility and severe damage of heritage fragments. Therefore, the testing data is composed of a set of ancient Egyptian decorated broken fragments recorded through 3D remote sensing techniques. More specifically, structured light technology for mesh models creation, as well as orthophotos, upon which digital drawings are created. Even though this study is restricted to Egyptian artifacts, the workflow can be applied to reconstruct different types of decoration patterns in the cultural heritage domain.
