Hyperspectral images contain distinguishing spectral information and show great potential in the anomaly detection (AD) task which aims to extract discrepant targets from the background. However, most of the popular hyperspectral AD techniques are time consuming and suffer from poor detection performance due to noise disturbance. To address these issues, we propose an efficient and robust AD method for hyperspectral images. In our framework, principal component analysis (PCA) is adopted for spectral dimensionality reduction and to enhance the anti-noise ability. An improved guided filter with edge weight is constructed to purify the background and highlight the potential anomalies. Moreover, a diagonal matrix operation is designed to quickly accumulate the energy of each pixel and efficiently locate the abnormal targets. Extensive experiments conducted on the real-world hyperspectral datasets qualitatively and quantitatively demonstrate that, compared with the existing state-of-the-art approaches, the proposed method achieves higher detection accuracy with faster detection speed which verifies the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Anomaly detection aims to identify the true anomalies from a given set of data instances. Unsupervised anomaly detection algorithms are applied to an unlabeled dataset by producing a ranked list based on anomaly scores. Unfortunately, due to the inherent limitations, many of the top-ranked instances by unsupervised algorithms are not anomalies or not interesting from an application perspective, which leads to high false-positive rates. Active anomaly discovery (AAD) is proposed to overcome this deficiency, which sequentially selects instances to get the labeling information and incorporate it into the anomaly detection algorithm to improve the detection accuracy iteratively. However, labeling is often costly. Therefore, the way to balance detection accuracy and labeling cost is essential. Along this line, this paper proposes a novel AAD method to achieve the goal. Our approach is based on the state-of-the-art unsupervised anomaly detection algorithm, namely, Isolation Forest, to extract features. Thereafter, the sparsity of the extracted features is utilized to improve its anomaly detection performance. To enforce the sparsity of the features and subsequent improvement of the detection analysis, a new algorithm based on online gradient descent, namely, Sparse Approximated Linear Anomaly Discovery (SALAD), is proposed with its theoretical Regret analysis. Extensive experiments on both open-source and additive manufacturing datasets demonstrate that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithms for anomaly detection.

In this paper, a novel flower detection application anchor-based method is proposed, which is combined with an attention mechanism to detect the flowers in a smart garden in AIoT more accurately and fast. While many researchers have paid much attention to the flower classification in existing studies, the issue of flower detection has been largely overlooked. The problem we have outlined deals largely with the study of a new design and application of flower detection. Firstly, a new end-to-end flower detection anchor-based method is inserted into the architecture of the network to make it more precious and fast and the loss function and attention mechanism are introduced into our model to suppress unimportant features. Secondly, our flower detection algorithms can be integrated into the mobile device. It is revealed that our flower detection method is very considerable through a series of investigations carried out. The detection accuracy of our method is similar to that of the state-of-the-art, and the detection speed is faster at the same time. It makes a major contribution to flower detection in computer vision.

Virtual machines (VM) on a Cloud platform can be influenced by a variety of factors which can lead to decreased performance and downtime, affecting the reliability of the Cloud platform. Traditional anomaly detection algorithms and strategies for Cloud platforms have some flaws in their accuracy of detection, detection speed, and adaptability. In this paper, a dynamic and adaptive anomaly detection algorithm based on Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) for virtual machines is proposed. A unified modeling method based on SOM to detect the machine performance within the detection region is presented, which avoids the cost of modeling a single virtual machine and enhances the detection speed and reliability of large-scale virtual machines in Cloud platform. The important parameters that affect the modeling speed are optimized in the SOM process to significantly improve the accuracy of the SOM modeling and therefore the anomaly detection accuracy of the virtual machine.

Background modeling has been proven to be a promising method of hyperspectral anomaly detection. However, due to the cluttered imaging scene, modeling the background of an hyperspectral image (HSI) is often challenging. To mitigate this problem, we propose a novel structured background modeling-based hyperspectral anomaly detection method, which clearly improves the detection accuracy through exploiting the block-diagonal structure of the background. Specifically, to conveniently model the multi-mode characteristics of background, we divide the full-band patches in an HSI into different background clusters according to their spatial-spectral features. A spatial-spectral background dictionary is then learned for each cluster with a principal component analysis (PCA) learning scheme. When being represented onto those dictionaries, the background often exhibits a block-diagonal structure, while the anomalous target shows a sparse structure. In light of such an observation, we develop a low-rank representation based anomaly detection framework that can appropriately separate the sparse anomaly from the block-diagonal background. To optimize this framework effectively, we adopt the standard alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm. With extensive experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets, the proposed method achieves an obvious improvement in detection accuracy, compared with several state-of-the-art hyperspectral anomaly detection methods.

Image steganography can have legitimate uses, for example, augmenting an image with a watermark for copyright reasons, but can also be utilized for malicious purposes. We investigate the detection of malicious steganography using neural networkbased classification when images are transmitted through a noisy channel. Noise makes detection harder because the classifier must not only detect perturbations in the image but also decide whether they are due to the malicious steganographic modifications or due to natural noise. Our results show that reliable detection is possible even for state-of-the-art steganographic algorithms that insert stego bits not affecting an image’s visual quality. The detection accuracy is high (above 85%) if the payload, or the amount of the steganographic content in an image, exceeds a certain threshold. At the same time, noise critically affects the steganographic information being transmitted, both through desynchronization (destruction of information which bits of the image contain steganographic information) and by flipping these bits themselves. This will force the adversary to use a redundant encoding with a substantial number of error-correction bits for reliable transmission, making detection feasible even for small payloads.

Fire is a fierce disaster, and smoke is the early signal of fire. Since such features as chrominance, texture, and shape of smoke are very special, a lot of methods based on these features have been developed. But these static characteristics vary widely, so there are some exceptions leading to low detection accuracy. On the other side, the motion of smoke is much more discriminating than the aforementioned features, so a time-domain neural network is proposed to extract its dynamic characteristics. This smoke recognition network has these advantages:(1) extract the spatiotemporal with the 3D filters which work on dynamic and static characteristics synchronously; (2) high accuracy, 87.31% samples being classified rightly, which is the state of the art even in a chaotic environments, and the fuzzy objects for other methods, such as haze, fog, and climbing cars, are distinguished distinctly; (3) high sensitiveness, smoke being detected averagely at the 23rd frame, which is also the state of the art, which is meaningful to alarm early fire as soon as possible; and (4) it is not been based on any hypothesis, which guarantee the method compatible. Finally, a new metric, the difference between the first frame in which smoke is detected and the first frame in which smoke happens, is proposed to compare the algorithms sensitivity in videos. The experiments confirm that the dynamic characteristics are more discriminating than the aforementioned static characteristics, and smoke recognition network is a good tool to extract compound feature.

Human operators often diagnose industrial machinery via anomalous sounds. Given the new advances in the field of machine learning, automated acoustic anomaly detection can lead to reliable maintenance of machinery. However, deep learning-driven anomaly detection methods often require an extensive amount of computational resources prohibiting their deployment in factories. Here we explore a machine-driven design exploration strategy to create OutlierNets, a family of highly compact deep convolutional autoencoder network architectures featuring as few as 686 parameters, model sizes as small as 2.7 KB, and as low as 2.8 million FLOPs, with a detection accuracy matching or exceeding published architectures with as many as 4 million parameters. The architectures are deployed on an Intel Core i5 as well as a ARM Cortex A72 to assess performance on hardware that is likely to be used in industry. Experimental results on the model’s latency show that the OutlierNet architectures can achieve as much as 30x lower latency than published networks.
