Few-shot semantic segmentation is a technique with significant potential for medical image segmentation tasks. Most existing few-shot semantic segmentation methods require fully annotated labels for the training process. However, these methods may not be suitable for medical images, where data collection and labeling are challenging. To address this issue, this paper proposed an enhanced, few-shot semantic segmentation model with a new pre-processing step to generate pseudo-labels automatically. In this paper, parallel computing is also developed to accelerate image pre-processing. Experiments done on MRI image datasets present the effectiveness of the new approach since it outperforms conventional few-shot semantic segmentation methods.

In the recent decades, remote sensing data are rapidly growing in size and variety, and considered as "big geo data" because of their huge data volume, significant heterogeneity and challenge of fast analysis. In the traditional remote sensing analysis workflows, the data transfer for downloading raw image files to local workstations often costs a lot of time and slows down the data analysis workflows. Because results of remote sensing data analysis models are usually much smaller than raw data to be processed, "on-demand processing", which tries to upload data analysis models and execute them "near" where data stores, can significantly accelerate the execution of remote sensing analysis workflows. In this paper, a framework for on-demand remote sensing data analysis is proposed based on three-layered architecture;XML/JSON based runtime environment description;and on-demand model deployment methods. The evaluation on a prototype system shows that on-demand processing framework accelerates the execution of analysis models in 2.8 similar to 12.7 times by reducing data transfers, especially for those analysis workflows which transfer data through low bandwidth Internet. By on-demand processing, classical remote sensing data service systems can evolve into remote sensing data processing infrastructures, which provide IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) and PaaS (Platform-as-a Service) services, and make it possible to exchange knowledge among scientists by sharing models. Furthermore, a remote sensing data analysis platform for carbon satellites is designed based on the on-demand processing proposed by this paper and will soon be implemented under the support of SunWay-TaihuLight, the world's most powerful super computer.

Modern 3D image recovery problems require powerful optimization frameworks to handle high dimensionality while providing reliable numerical solutions in a reasonable time. In this perspective, asynchronous parallel optimization algorithms have received an increasing attention by overcoming memory limitation issues and communication bottlenecks. In this work, we propose a block distributed Majorize-Minorize Memory Gradient (BD3MG) optimization algorithm for solving large scale non-convex differentiable optimization problems. Assuming a distributed memory environment, the algorithm casts the efficient 3MG scheme [1] into smaller dimension subproblems where blocks of variables are addressed in an asynchronous manner. Convergence of the sequence built by the proposed BD3MG method is established under mild assumptions. Application to the restoration of 3D images degraded by a depth-variant blur shows that our method yields significant computational time reduction compared to several synchronous and asynchronous competitors, while exhibiting great scalability potential.

Color space conversion and downsampling are among the major computationally intensive steps in typical image and video codec standards, and accelerating these steps will improve the performances of these applications significantly. In this paper, we describe the parallel implementation of the color space conversion and downsampling as pre-processing steps for the JPEG encoder in a heterogeneous environment using the most recent cross-platform Open Computing Language (OpenCL). This work combines a multi-core CPU and a many core GPU in a single solution to perform the computation of the JPEG encoder pre-processing stages. In comparing with CPU based implementation, our OpenCL parallel implementation results in an increase in the speed of the computations by factors of 8.78 on both CPU and GPU devices.

Complex event processing is an efficient method in data stream processing of Internet of things, but more of these methods are referred to a single complex event or a small quantity of events. Aiming at this problem, a distributed complex event processing architecture for Internet of things is presented in this paper, in which a distributed query plan of complex event process structure based on directed acyclic graph (DAG) is given, moreover, a distributed query-plan complex-event-processing algorithm based on directed acyclic graph is proposed. The complex tasks are decomposed into several simple sub-tasks which are processed in parallel with the corresponding operator nodes, to realize distributedprocessing and to improve the efficiency of processing and execution. The simulation results indicate that our method is more efficient in lower RAM consumption, processing time, and others, and the efficiency of data stream processing for Internet of things is improved.

image registration is a classical problem that addresses the problem of finding a geometric transformation that best aligns two images. Since the amount of multisensor remote sensing imagery are growing tremendously, the search for matching transformation with mutual information is very time-consuming and tedious, and fast and automatic registration of images from different sensors has become critical in the remote sensing framework. So the implementation of automatic mutual information based image registration methods on high performance machines needs to be investigated. First, this paper presents a parallel implementation of a mutual information based image registration algorithm. It takes advantage of cluster machines by partitioning of data depending on the algorithm's peculiarity. Then, the evaluation of the parallel registration method has been presented in theory and in experiments and shows that the parallel algorithm has good parallel performance and scalability.

Solving an ill-conditioned linear system with a two level preconditioned Conjugate Gradient method on the GPU presents many options. The viability of these options is studied for different bubbly flow problems. On the basis of experiments conducted, we propose strategies that make our approach computationally suitable. We use the Truncated Neumann series based preconditioning scheme in combination with Deflation for implementing the two-level preconditioned Conjugate Gradient method and test different configurations on a unit cube with varying number of bubbles. Our results exhibit up to an order of magnitude speedup on the GPU. Our preconditioning scheme combined with deflation proves competitive (in terms of computation time and convergence) when compared to deflation with Incomplete Cholesky preconditioning.

Making sense of big data and big metadata remains a challenge as more and more data are churned out every day. The problem of adding value to unstructured data requires the application of computationally intensive algorithms to discover useful patterns in the data. In terms of data streams from public transport such as buses, we address the problem of performing time-consuming algorithms to model the data while still being able to process abnormal events in real-time. We propose using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for identifying conditions for an abnormal event in bus journeys and methods for isolating HMM computations from real-time event processing. Results show that training HMMs with even noisy metadata can generate models that can recognize an abnormal event in a parallel and distributed manner in the cloud.

Complex imageprocessing algorithms that require higher computational power with large scale inputs can be processed efficiently using the parallel and distributedprocessing of Hadoop MapReduce Framework. Hadoop MapReduce is a scalable model which is capable of processing petabytes (10(15) order) of data with improved fault tolerance and data parallelism. In this paper we present a MapReduce framework for performing parallel remote sensing satellite data processing using Hadoop and storing the output in HBase. The speedup and performance show that by utilizing Hadoop, we can distribute our workload across different clusters to take advantage of combined processing power on commodity hardware.
