Background cues play an accompanying role in most regression trackers, where they directly learn a mapping from dense sampling to soft label by giving a search area. In essence, the trackers need to identify a large amount of background information (i.e., other objects and distractor objects) under the circumstance of extreme target-background data imbalance. Therefore, we believe that it is more worth performing regression tracking depending on the informative background cues and using target cues as supplementary. To do this, we propose a capsule-based approach, referred to as CapsuleBI, which performs regression tracking based on a background inpainting network and a target-aware network. The background inpainting network explores the background representations by restoring the region of the target with all available scenes, and a target-aware network captures the target representations by focusing on the target itself only. To explore the subjects/distractors in the whole scene, we propose a global-guided feature construction module, which helps enhance the local features with global information. Both the background and target are encoded in capsules, which can model the relationships between objects or object parts in the background scene. Apart from this, the target-aware network assists the background inpainting network with a novel background-target routing algorithm that guides the background and target capsules to estimate the target location with multi-video relationships information precisely. Extensive experimental results show that the proposed tracker achieves favorably against state-of-the-art methods.

The large and increasing amount of scientific literature makes it difficult for researchers to analyse and understand relations between topics even in their specific sub-field. Neuroscience researchers are interested in relations between, for example, anatomical regions of the brain and the diseases that affect them. To explore relations in the extensive body of literature, using the topics themselves rather than individual articles, can provide a higher-level approach. We have created a prototype interactive AR environment to learn more about how topic-based literature browsing might aid researchers in analysing and understanding relations between topics. Given the three-dimensional nature of the brain, we postulate that visualizing neuroscience topics in Augmented Reality would support the exploration of relations between them and thus improve and extend existing literature exploration workflows. We follow a user-centered approach to identify visualization and interaction design requirements. Using an existing analysis of tens of thousands of neuroscience papers, we designed an interactive AR environment to support researchers in finding relations between brain regions and brain diseases that integrates with existing literature review practices. We carried out two qualitative evaluations to verify our design, first with eight neuroscience students as domain experts and then with seven experienced researchers as literature exploration experts. Our analysis of participants' feedback shows that visualizing topics and their relations in the immersive AR environment is clear, understandable and helpful for topic-based literature exploration, specifically, between brain regions and brain diseases. Our AR literature exploration tool has the potential to be used by neuroscientists in their routine literature reviews.

Brain-computer interface (BCI) is a system that may benefit people with severe motor disabilities by allowing them to communicate using their brain's signals. However, trends in BCI implementation use large and heavy platforms, such as personal computers (PCs), which limit full integration with portable devices. Due to its parallelism, reconfigurable features, and capabilities to perform multiple channel processing, the Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) platform is suitable for electroencephalography (EEG) signal processing. This paper presents the design and implementation of an FPGA-based BCI embedded system for eye state classification in real-time. The system was implemented using Xilinx Artix-7 family FPGA. The designed system filtered EEG signals using FIR filters and the pattern features were calculated using Power Spectral Density (PSD). Furthermore, Linear Discriminant analysis (LDA) was used to classify EEG data related to the eye state. The proposed system was tested using recorded data from a subject acquired by the open-source biosensing board Cyton for offline and online evaluation. The system achieved an accuracy of 81.1% during real-time sessions. Finally, the results show the execution time, resources, and power consumption of the designed system.

Supply chain (SC) activities generate huge amount of data that can be used in decision making processes. However, proper data analytics techniques are required to combine, organize, and analyze data from different sources and produce required insights available for decision makers. These techniques promote analytical reasoning of the events and patterns hidden in the data using visualizations, so-called Visual Analytics (VA). Although there is a large number of VA systems to facilitate the process of analysis and decision making, there is a lack of an adequate overview of what already exists in this area for SC management. To address that need, we conducted a systematic literature review to analyze the state of the art in SC VA systems. Particularly, we focus on use cases, the type of the decisions that a VA system intended to support, the type of visualizations employed, the type of analytics used, and the data that has been used for analysis. The goal of this study is to provide SC and VA researchers with an overview of the works carried out in the field of SC VA, helping them to observe latest trends and to recognize existing gaps that need further investigation. Consequently, a mapping between decisions of various SC business processes and their reciprocal visualization techniques and tactics have been provided. Adding to that, VA applications and use cases in SC are identified based on the SC Operation Reference (SCOR) model and underlying decision areas are recognized.

In this study, the potentiality of an automatic processing system for fast implementation of interferometric SAR analysis is tested over a time series of COSMO-SkyMed data. A system architecture for the end-to-end implementation of Permanent Scatterer workflow is illustrated and applied to a test case located over the South-West area of the Rome area. The system architecture is aimed at providing a high degree of automation in the different steps of the procedures, from the Satellite products download and storage up to the datavisualization. The proposed solution can be integrated with both commercial processing tools and open source frameworks. A two years of COSMO-SkyMed acquisitions from the MAPITALY archive have been analysed with SARscape and a customized open source workflow. The obtained results highlighted some interesting features on the considered area of interest. Moreover, the outcome of the analyses are in good agreement with previous studies on the same geographical region.

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) show promising performance in several application domains, such as robotics, aerospace, smart healthcare, and autonomous driving. Never-theless, DNN results may be incorrect, not only because of the network intrinsic inaccuracy, but also due to faults affecting the hardware. Indeed, hardware faults may impact the DNN inference process and lead to prediction failures. Therefore, ensuring the fault tolerance of DNN is crucial. However, common fault tolerance approaches are not cost-effective for DNNs protection, because of the prohibitive overheads due to the large size of DNNs and of the required memory for parameter storage. In this work, we propose a comprehensive framework to assess the fault tolerance of DNNs and cost-effectively protect them. As a first step, the proposed framework performs datatype-and-layer-based fault injection, driven by the DNN characteristics. As a second step, it uses classification-based machine learning methods in order to predict the criticality, not only of network parameters, but also of their bits. Last, dedicated Error Correction Codes (ECCs) are selectively inserted to protect the critical parameters and bits, hence protecting the DNNs with low cost. Thanks to the proposed framework, we explored and protected two Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), each with four different data encoding. The results show that it is possible to protect the critical network parameters with selective ECCs while saving up to 83% memory w.r.t. conventional ECC approaches.
