MFAN: Multi-Level Features Attention Network for Fake Certificate Image Detection

Up to now, most of the forensics methods have attached more attention to natural content images. To expand the application of image forensics technology, forgery detection for certificate images that can directly represent people’s rights and interests is investigated in this paper. Variable tampered region scales and diverse manipulation types are two typical characteristics in fake certificate images. To tackle this task, a novel method called Multi-level Feature Attention Network (MFAN) is proposed. MFAN is built following the encoder–decoder network structure. In order to extract features with rich scale information in the encoder, on the one hand, we employ Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP) on the final layer of a pre-trained residual network to capture the contextual information at different scales; on the other hand, low-level features are concatenated to ensure the sensibility to small targets. Furthermore, the resulting multi-level features are recalibrated on channels for irrelevant information suppression and enhancing the tampered regions, guiding the MFAN to adapt to diverse manipulation traces. In the decoder module, the attentive feature maps are convoluted and unsampled to effectively generate the prediction mask. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method outperforms some state-of-the-art forensics methods.

Animation Character Detection Algorithm Based on Clustering and Cascaded SSD

With the evolution of the Internet and information technology, the era of big data is a new digital one. Accordingly, animation IP has been more and more widely welcomed and concerned with the continuous development of the domestic and international animation industry. Hence, animation video analysis will be a good landing application for computers. This paper proposes an algorithm based on clustering and cascaded SSD for object detection of animation characters in the big data environment. In the training process, the improved classification Loss function based on Focal Loss and Truncated Gradient was used to enhance the initial detection effect. In the detection phase, this algorithm designs a small target enhanced detection module cascaded with an SSD network. In this way, the high-level features corresponding to the small target region can be extracted separately to detect small targets, which can effectively enhance the detection effect of small targets. In order to further improve the effect of small target detection, the regional candidate box is reconstructed by a k-means clustering algorithm to improve the detection accuracy of the algorithm. Experimental results demonstrate that this method can effectively detect animation characters, and performance indicators are better than other existing algorithms.

A New Multiface Target Detection Algorithm for Students in Class Based on Bayesian Optimized YOLOv3 Model

Deep learning theory is widely used in face recognition. Combined with the needs of classroom attendance and students’ learning status monitoring, this article analyzes the YOLO (You Only Look Once) face recognition algorithms based on regression method. Aiming at the problem of small target missing detection in the YOLOv3 network structure, an improved YOLOv3 algorithm based on Bayesian optimization is proposed. The algorithm uses deep separable convolution instead of conventional convolution to improve the Darknet-53 basic network, and it reduces the amount of calculation and parameters of the network. A multiscale feature pyramid is built, and an attention guidance module is designed to strengthen multiscale fusion, detecting different sizes of targets. The loss function is improved to solve the imbalance of positive and negative sample distribution and the imbalance between simple samples and difficult samples. The Bayesian function is adopted to optimize the classifier and improve the classification efficiency and accuracy, ensuring the accuracy of small target detection. Five groups of comparative experiments are carried out on public COCO and VOC2012 datasets and self-built datasets. The experimental results show that the proposed improved YOLOv3 model can effectively improve the detection accuracy of multiple faces and small targets. Compared with the traditional YOLOv3 model, the mean mAP of the target is improved by more than 1.2%.

Autonomous Multiple Tramp Materials Detection in Raw Coal Using Single-Shot Feature Fusion Detector

In the coal mining process, various types of tramp materials will be mixed into the raw coal, which will affect the quality of the coal and endanger the normal operation of the equipment. Automatic detection of tramp materials objects is an important process and basis for efficient coal sorting. However, previous research has focused on the detection of gangue, ignoring the detection of other types of tramp materials, especially small targets. Because the initial Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) lacks the efficient use of feature maps, it is difficult to obtain stable results when detecting tramp materials objects. In this article, an object detection algorithm based on feature fusion and dense convolutional network is proposed, which is called tramp materials in raw coal single-shot detector (TMRC-SSD), to detect five types of tramp materials such as gangue, bolt, stick, iron sheet, and iron chain. In this algorithm, a modified DenseNet is first designed and a four-stage feature extractor is used to down-sample the feature map stably. After that, we use the dilation convolution and multi-branch structure to enrich the receptive field. Finally, in the feature fusion module, we designed cross-layer feature fusion and attention fusion modules to realize the semantic interaction of feature maps. The experiments show that the module we designed is effective. This method is better than the existing model. When the input image is 300 × 300 pixels, it can reach 96.12% MAP and 24FPS. Especially in the detection of small objects, the detection accuracy has increased by 4.1 to 95.57%. The experimental results show that this method can be applied to the actual detection of tramp materials objects in raw coal.

Multimedia Detection and Processing of Remote-Sensing Image of Small Target Combined with Variable Neighborhood Search Algorithm

The development of scientific satellites has made it a reality for people to view the Earth from the sky. However, due to the resolution of the image obtained, the effective and accurate interpretation of remote-sensing images has always been one of the goals pursued by the industry. In this paper, we merge the variable neighborhood search algorithm, reduce the accuracy of remote-sensing images, clean the invalid information of the data, use unsupervised classification methods to quickly locate small targets, use it as verification information, compare and select the image data through sample information, distinguish the background and target results, and get stable detection results. Practice shows that this method can effectively detect small targets in remote-sensing images.

SRSDD-v1.0: A High-Resolution SAR Rotation Ship Detection Dataset

Deep learning has been widely used in the field of SAR ship detection. However, current SAR ship detection still faces many challenges, such as complex scenes, multiple scales, and small targets. In order to promote the solution to the above problems, this article releases a high-resolution SAR ship detection dataset which can be used for rotating frame target detection. The dataset contains six categories of ships. In total, 30 panoramic SAR tiles of the Chinese Gaofen-3 of port areas with a 1-m resolution were cropped to slices, each with 1024 × 1024 pixels. In addition, most of the images in the dataset contain nearshore areas with complex background interference. Eight state-of-the-art rotated detectors and a CFAR-based method were used to evaluate the dataset. Experimental results revealed that the complex background will have a great impact on the performance of detectors.

Swin-HSTPS: Research on Target Detection Algorithms for Multi-Source High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images

Traffic port stations are composed of buildings, infrastructure, and transportation vehicles. The target detection of traffic port stations in high-resolution remote sensing images needs to collect feature information of nearby small targets, comprehensively analyze and classify, and finally complete the traffic port station positioning. At present, deep learning methods based on convolutional neural networks have made great progress in single-target detection of high-resolution remote sensing images. How to show good adaptability to the recognition of multi-target complexes of high-resolution remote sensing images is a difficult point in the current remote sensing field. This paper constructs a novel high-resolution remote sensing image traffic port station detection model (Swin-HSTPS) to achieve high-resolution remote sensing image traffic port station detection (such as airports, ports) and improve the multi-target complex in high-resolution remote sensing images The recognition accuracy of high-resolution remote sensing images solves the problem of high-precision positioning by comprehensive analysis of the feature combination information of multiple small targets in high-resolution remote sensing images. The model combines the characteristics of the MixUp hybrid enhancement algorithm, and enhances the image feature information in the preprocessing stage. The PReLU activation function is added to the forward network of the Swin Transformer model network to construct a ResNet-like residual network and perform convolutional feature maps. Non-linear transformation strengthens the information interaction of each pixel block. This experiment evaluates the superiority of the model training by comparing the two indicators of average precision and average recall in the training phase. At the same time, in the prediction stage, the accuracy of the prediction target is measured by confidence. Experimental results show that the optimal average precision of the Swin-HSTPS reaches 85.3%, which is about 8% higher than the average precision of the Swin Transformer detection model. At the same time, the target prediction accuracy is also higher than the Swin Transformer detection model, which can accurately locate traffic port stations such as airports and ports in high-resolution remote sensing images. This model inherits the advantages of the Swin Transformer detection model, and is superior to mainstream models such as R-CNN and YOLOv5 in terms of the target prediction ability of high-resolution remote sensing image traffic port stations.

INDICATORS OF SA-19 “GRISON” ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUN MISSILE SYSTEM EFFICIENCY WHEN FIRING AT NONTYPICAL TARGETS OF THE ROCKET AND ARTILLERY WEAPONS

In modern conditions of combat use the SA-19 “Grison” anti-aircraft gun missile system fires at small targets (drones) and typical targets (helicopters and attack aircraft), so a number of problems arise. In particular, they include: finding the value of the probabilities of hitting the target with n shots and one shot; assessing the effectiveness of the SA-19 “Grison” platoon‟s concentrated fire on a single target; estimating errors of missile guidance and warhead detonation system; estimating the values of conditional probabilities of hitting a target with a single missile, depending on the value of particular mishit. When calculating the slant range to the far edge of the SA-19 “Grison” weapon's kill zone under different conditions of use, factors that reduce these ranges should be taken into account. An analysis of the main studies and publications presented in [1-9] does not make it possible to determine the performance of missile and artillery weapons in shooting at small-size targets. This literature provides general approaches to solving this problem. The purpose of this article is to develop a model for calculating the values of conditional probabilities of destruction of small targets, to form the best options for repelling an enemy‟s air strike, as well as to justify the general directions of improvement of weapon‟s elements.

Recognition of flying small target based on enhanced quadratic time-frequency analysis

UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, UAVs) are flying targets that sail at low altitudes, are slower and smaller in size. Nowadays, the task of detecting and distinguishing flying small targets is very difficult, so how to efficiently recognize flying small targets in real time is a key issue of current research. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a method of using pseudo-WVD and image fusion to represent the characteristics of UAVs. First, the SMMWR (Single-mode millimeter wave radar, SMMWR) equipment is used to collect the echo signals of various types of UAVs, and at the same time, the two-dimensional FFT is used to extract the target micro-motion signals in the distance dimension. Secondly, PWVD is used to generate time-frequency graphs of different window functions. Finally, the images fused based on principal component analysis are sent to AlexNet for training. The result proves that the accuracy of recognition rate based on AlexNet can be 93.75%.
