A method based on Robust Principle Component Analysis (RPCA) technique is proposed to detect small targets in infrared images. Using the low rank characteristic of background and the sparse characteristic of target, the observed image is regarded as the sum of a low-rank background matrix and a sparse outlier matrix, and then the decomposition is solved by the RPCA. The infrared small target is extracted from the single-frame image or multi-frame sequence. In order to get more efficient algorithm, the iteration process in the augmented Lagrange multiplier method is improved. The simulation results show that the method can detect out the small target precisely and efficiently.

Weighted restarting automata have been introduced to study quantitative aspects of computations of restarting automata. In earlier works we studied the classes of functions and relations that are computed by weighted restarting automata. Here we use them to define classes of formal languages by restricting the weight associated to a given input word through an additional requirement. In this way, weighted restarting automata can be used as language acceptors. First, we show that by using the notion of acceptance relative to the tropical semiring, we can avoid the use of auxiliary symbols. Furthermore, a certain type of word-weighted restarting automata turns out to be equivalent to non-forgetting restarting automata, and another class of languages accepted by word-weighted restarting automata is shown to be closed under the operation of intersection. This is the first result that shows that a class of languages defined in terms of a quite general class of restarting automata is closed under intersection. Finally, we prove that the restarting automata that are allowed to use auxiliary symbols in a rewrite step, and to keep on reading after performing a rewrite step can be simulated by regular-weighted restarting automata that cannot do this.

One of the complex processes in spectral analysis of surface waves (SASW) data analysis is the inversion procedure. An initial soil profile needs to be assumed at the beginning of the inversion analysis, which involves calculating the theoretical dispersion curve. If the assumption of the starting soil profile model is not reasonably close, the iteration process might lead to nonconvergence or take too long to be converged. Automating the inversion procedure will allow us to evaluate the soil stiffness properties conveniently and rapidly by means of the SASW method. Multilayer perceptron (MLP), random forest (RF), support vector regression (SVR), and linear regression (LR) algorithms were implemented in order to automate the inversion. For this purpose, the dispersion curves obtained from 50 field tests were used as input data for all of the algorithms. The results illustrated that SVR algorithms could potentially be used to estimate the shear wave velocity of soil.

AbstractThe Brascamp–Lieb inequalities are a very general class of classical multilinear inequalities, well-known examples of which being Hölder’s inequality, Young’s convolution inequality, and the Loomis–Whitney inequality. Conventionally, a Brascamp–Lieb inequality is defined as a multilinear Lebesgue bound on the product of the pullbacks of a collection of functions $$f_j\in L^{q_j}(\mathbb {R}^{n_j})$$ f j ∈ L q j ( R n j ) , for $$j=1,\ldots ,m$$ j = 1 , … , m , under some corresponding linear maps $$B_j$$ B j . This regime is now fairly well understood (Bennett et al. in Geom Funct Anal 17(5):1343–1415, 2008), and moving forward there has been interest in nonlinear generalisations, where $$B_j$$ B j is now taken to belong to some suitable class of nonlinear maps. While there has been great recent progress on the question of local nonlinear Brascamp–Lieb inequalities (Bennett et al. in Duke Math J 169(17):3291–3338, 2020), there has been relatively little regarding global results; this paper represents some progress along this line of enquiry. We prove a global nonlinear Brascamp–Lieb inequality for ‘quasialgebraic’ maps, a class that encompasses polynomial and rational maps, as a consequence of the multilinear Kakeya-type inequalities of Zhang and Zorin-Kranich. We incorporate a natural affine-invariant weight that both compensates for local degeneracies and yields a constant with minimal dependence on the underlying maps. We then show that this inequality generalises Young’s convolution inequality on algebraic groups with suboptimal constant.
