Multi-scale ordering in highly stretchable polymer semiconducting films
摘要: Stretchable semiconducting polymers have been developed as a key component to enable skin-like wearable electronics, but their electrical performance must be improved to enable more advanced functionalities. Here, we report a solution processing approach that can achieve multi-scale ordering and alignment of conjugated polymers in stretchable semiconductors to substantially improve their charge carrier mobility. Using solution shearing with a patterned microtrench coating blade, macroscale alignment of conjugated-polymer nanostructures was achieved along the charge transport direction. In conjunction, the nanoscale spatial confinement aligns chain conformation and promotes short-range π–π ordering, substantially reducing the energetic barrier for charge carrier transport. As a result, the mobilities of stretchable conjugated-polymer films have been enhanced up to threefold and maintained under a strain up to 100%. This method may also serve as the basis for large-area manufacturing of stretchable semiconducting films, as demonstrated by the roll-to-roll coating of metre-scale films.

Multi-source Remote Sensing Image Registration Based on Contourlet Transform and Multiple Feature Fusion
摘要: Image registration is an indispensable component in multi-source remote sensing image processing. In this paper, we put forward a remote sensing image registration method by including an improved multi-scale and multi-direction Harris algorithm and a novel compound feature. Multi-scale circle Gaussian combined invariant moments and multi-direction gray level co-occurrence matrix are extracted as features for image matching. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on numerous multi-source remote sensor images with noise and illumination changes. Extensive experimental studies prove that our proposed method is capable of receiving stable and even distribution of key points as well as obtaining robust and accurate correspondence matches. It is a promising scheme in multi-source remote sensing image registration.

摘要: Efficiency, distinctiveness and robustness are three main goals for feature extractors in application of texture classification. In this paper, a new feature extractor is designed which aims to achieve these three goals simultaneously. The contributions are threefold. Firstly, a tree-shaped multi-scale sampling structure is proposed to acquire points distributed along two circles and one octagon. Secondly, four histogram vectors are obtained by quantizing the sampling values through a hybrid strategy. In order to suppress the noise, mean filtering is used as a preprocessing step and the four vectors are concatenated to form the discriminant vector. Thirdly, experiments are conducted on different datasets with several well-known feature extractors. The results show that the proposed method improves the classification accuracy effectively and robustly, while has a moderate complexity.

Using multi-scale and hierarchical deep convolutional features for 3D semantic classification of TLS point clouds
摘要: Point cloud classification, which provides meaningful semantic labels to the points in a point cloud, is essential for generating three-dimensional (3D) models. Its automation, however, remains challenging due to varying point densities and irregular point distributions. Adapting existing deep-learning approaches for two-dimensional (2D) image classification to point cloud classification is inefficient and results in the loss of information valuable for point cloud classification. In this article, a new approach that classifies point cloud directly in 3D is proposed. The approach uses multi-scale features generated by deep learning. It comprises three steps: (1) extract single-scale deep features using 3D convolutional neural network (CNN); (2) subsample the input point cloud at multiple scales, with the point cloud at each scale being an input to the 3D CNN, and combine deep features at multiple scales to form multi-scale and hierarchical features; and (3) retrieve the probabilities that each point belongs to the intended semantic category using a softmax regression classifier. The proposed approach was tested against two publicly available point cloud datasets to demonstrate its performance and compared to the results produced by other existing approaches. The experiment results achieved 96.89% overall accuracy on the Oakland dataset and 91.89% overall accuracy on the Europe dataset, which are the highest among the considered methods.

摘要: In this paper, a new algorithm for retinal vessels segmentation is proposed. The algorithm is based on a multi-scale modified Dolph-Chebyshev type I function matched filter. Fundus images from the DRIVE and STARE databases are utilized to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. Several performance indicators, such as specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy are used for performance evaluation. Experimental results show that for the DRIVE database, the results of the proposed algorithm are superior to those produced by all compared algorithms. When tested on pathological images from the STARE database, the proposed algorithm also performs better than all competing methods. This indicates that the proposed algorithm is suitable to be used in automatic retinal diseases diagnosis tools.

摘要: This paper introduces an object-based method based on a new statistical distance for SAR image change detection. Firstly, multi-temporal segmentation is carried out to segment two temporal SAR images simultaneously. It considers the homogeneity in two temporal images, and could generate homogeneous objects in spectral, spatial and temporal. In addition, through setting different segmentation parameters, the multi-temporal images can be segmented in a set of scales. This process exploits the advantages of OBIA that could effectively reduce spurious changes, and considers the scale of change detection task. Secondly, a multiplicative noise model called Nakagami–Rayleigh distribution is employed to describe SAR data, and then applied to Bayesian formulation. Thus, a new statistical distance that is insensitive to speckles is derived to measure the distances between pairs of parcels. Then, cluster ensemble algorithm is utilized to improve accuracy of individual result in each scale to obtain the final change detection map. Finally, multi-temporal Radarsat-2 images are employed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method compared with other four methods.

摘要: Hybrid change detection (HCD) for high-resolution imagery usually adopt decision-level method and rely on artificial design. To address this issue, we propose a novel feature-level fusion strategy for HCD based on iterative slow feature analysis (ISFA). First, objects are obtained by multi-resolution segmentation of bi-temporal images respectively, and corresponding feature sets are constructed through stacking pixel- and object-level spectral features. Then, slow feature analysis (SFA) is used for transforming the feature sets into a new feature space at the first time. And iteration method with variable weights is introduced to get the last slow feature fusion map, where the changed pixels and unchanged pixels can be separated more easily. At last, K-means cluster is adopted to separate changed area and unchanged area automatically and generate final change result. Experiments were conducted on bi-temporal multi-spectral images, demonstrating the good performance of the proposed approach.

Infrared super-resolution imaging using multi-scale saliency and deep wavelet residuals
摘要: Infrared (IR) imaging systems with low-density focal plane arrays produce images with poor spatial resolution. To address this limitation, super-resolution (SR) algorithms can be applied on IR-low resolution (LR) images. In this paper, we present a new SR technique based on the multi-scale saliency detection and the residuals learned by the deep convolutional neural network (CNN) in the wavelet domain (DWCNN). The input LR image is processed in the transformed domain by applying 2D discrete wavelet transform. It decomposes an image into its low-frequency and high-frequency subbands. The multi-scale saliency detection is used to extract small scale and large scale salient feature maps from the bicubic upscaled LR image. These maps are incorporated in the high-frequency subbands of the LR image. Furthermore, the low-frequency and high-frequency subands are re?ned using the residuals learned by the DWCNN in training phase. The proposed algorithm is compared with the conventional and state-of-the-art SR methods. Results indicate that our method yields good reconstruction quality with high peak signal to ratio, structural similarity and low blur indices. Besides, our method requires less computational time.

摘要: Hysteretic effects play a crucial role in the behavior of devices based on piezoelectric materials. Most of the research focuses on modeling these effects for controlling the dynamic response of piezoelectric actuators. Few studies discuss how hysteresis influences power generation and performances of energy harvesters based on such active materials. In this paper, a recently developed physics-based model of a PZT crystal is employed to assess the effects of material mesoscopic variables on the macroscopic response of a piezoelectric energy harvester modeled as a SDOF system. A multi-scale approach is adopted where, at the mesoscale, crystal domain switching - the source of hysteretic behavior - is taken into account through a probabilistic thermodynamic approach. Effects of hysteretic nonlinearities on harvesting performances of the considered device are investigated by means of simulations. A comparison between predictions of two models - with and without hysteresis - is also reported.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE 3rd International Conference on Signal and Image Processing (ICSIP) - Shenzhen, China (2018.7.13-2018.7.15)] 2018 IEEE 3rd International Conference on Signal and Image Processing (ICSIP) - A New Image Denoising Method Based on Wavelet Multi-scale Registration Fusion
摘要: Image denoising is an eternal research topic. In this paper, a new image denoising method based on wavelet multi-scale registration fusion is proposed to solve the problem that it is easy to lose the edge and texture details of the image in the denoising process. First of all, we can get multiple sets of wavelet coefficients by using different wavelet bases to decompose the same noisy image. Then, the obtained wavelet coefficients are processed by the improved wavelet threshold shrink to get multiple denoising images of the same noisy image. At last, we use the fusion registration algorithm proposed in this paper to fuse the edge feature of multiple denoising images to get the final denoising image. The experiments prove that this method not only can effectively overcome the pseudo gibbs phenomenon caused by the hard threshold method, but also can overcome the image distortion phenomenon caused by the soft threshold method. More importantly, compared with existing methods, this method can effectively preserve the edge detail and texture features of the image and the image has a better visual effect after fusion registration. Therefore, it has a better application value.
