The rise of biomimetic unmanned aerial vehicle clusters has brought new challenges to radar target tracking and recognition. The purpose of flying imitating geese flocks is long-distance transport with low energy consumption. In this article, the methods of recognition and tracking are proposed for cluster targets with flight pattern of geese. The pattern recognition method, by detecting specific distance pairs according to five constraints including distance, vertical, pedal, orientation, and slope, judges whether there is a "V" characteristic in the measurement set and selects the key individuals such as the leading or following geese. Based on the pattern recognition result, the hypothetical pattern measurements are introduced into the filtering process as additional observation information, which aims to solve the problem of tracking accuracy decrease caused by high maneuverability in the formation stage of flying geese. Simulation results show that the proposed methods can not only judge the pattern of the cluster effectively and identify the key individuals but also improve the accuracy compared with the traditional tracking algorithms.

Most of the existing Transformer-based models have been shown to have great advantages in sequential recommendation by modeling temporal dynamics through the self-attention mechanism. Nevertheless, the original self-attention mechanism requires the equal weighting and computation of all interactions between each item and every other item. This method presents limitations in effectively capturing shifts in users' local interests. In addition, this approach ignores the noise in user data, while absolute position encoding leads to inaccurate sequential relations between items. An innovative Locally Enhanced Denoising Self-Attention Network and Decoupled Position Encoding for Sequential Recommendation, named LEDADP, is presented to resolve these issues. Specifically, we use the noise filtering module to convert the original data into the frequency domain to reduce the noise and achieve the purpose of filtering the noise. We integrate convolution into self-attention for local interest transfer, and we provide a multi-scale local enhanced convolution module that models local dependencies taking into account various local preferences at several scales, collecting more detailed local semantic information. Furthermore, in order to more precisely depict the sequential link between items, we additionally employ decoupled position encoding. Extensive experiments conducted on three real-world datasets : Beauty, Toys, and ML-1M. The experimental results show that compared with the suboptimal model, the proposed model has respectively improved by 2.87%, 7.83% and 4.1% on Recall@5, and by 2.03%, 4.08% and 6.8% on NDCG@5, which proves the validity of the model.

Hydrogen-blended natural gas (HBNG) represents a significant option in the clean energy transition, offering emission reduction benefits and compatibility with existing pipelines. However, forecasting hourly loads for HBNG is more challenging than for pure natural gas due to demand uncertainties and the complex properties introduced by hydrogen blending. To address this, the paper proposes an hourly load forecasting method for hydrogen-doped natural gas, EWMA-TCN-BiGRU, incorporating uncertainty considerations. This method employs EWMA filtering to smooth the data, TCN convolutional blocks to extract features, and Monte Carlo (MC) Dropout to generate prediction intervals. These intervals provide upper and lower bounds for the predictions, quantifying uncertainty and assessing the confidence of the results. The study is validated using experimental load and climate data from a station in Southwest China. The results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms under complex fluctuating conditions, significantly enhancing prediction accuracy compared to the EWMA-BiGRU method. Specifically, the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) is reduced from 13.8811 to 1.94151, confirming the method's effectiveness.

The primary objective of knowledge tracing (KT) is to evaluate students' understanding and mastery of knowledge through their responses to exercises, which aids in predicting their future performance. Deep neural networks have been widely applied in the area of knowledge tracing and have demonstrated encouraging results. Nevertheless, in real-world scenarios, there is a substantial amount of noise in students' response records. These noises may amplify the inherent risk of overfitting in deep neural networks, leading to a decrease in model performance. To address these issues, we introduce a new model called filter knowledge tracing (FKT). This innovative model incorporates a learnable filter into KT to filter out noise information from students' exercise sequences. We redefine the input paradigm of the data, using learnable filters to perform filtering operations in its frequency domain representation space, effectively removing noise. Additionally, an attention module has been introduced in the FKT model to evaluate the impact of students' historical interactions on their current knowledge state. To validate our model, we conduct extensive experiments utilizing four publicly available datasets. The results demonstrate that FKT outperforms existing benchmarks, particularly on larger datasets, signifying an improvement in KT performance while effectively reducing the risk of overfitting.

This study explores adaptive enhancement for irregular, low-pixel architectural design images, focusing on lightness components. Utilizing a median filter and wavelet threshold method removes image noise, followed by grayscale conversion in HSV space. Applying Retinex theory generates the initial enhanced image, further improved through wavelet transform image fusion technology, resulting in the final enhanced architectural design image. Experimental results demonstrate the method's effectiveness in adapting and enhancing irregular, low-pixel architectural design images, achieving notably improved outcomes. The proposed approach successfully extracts and utilizes valuable image information, enhancing overall image quality. This study found that the proposed method can effectively extract and better utilize useful information in images, achieving more ideal image enhancement effects.

Sequential recommendation aims to model user preferences by analyzing their historical behavioral data. However, most existing approaches focus on modeling user preferences in the time domain, ignoring the impact of various frequency patterns on user behavior. These frequency patterns are often intertwined in the time domain and are challenging to distinguish, which limits the model's ability to capture users' behaviors at different frequencies. In addition, based on the F-principle, deep learning models pay more attention to low-frequency information, which may lead to poor performance in high-frequency tasks. To alleviate these problems, we propose a novel frequency-enhanced filter (FARec) for sequential recommendation. The model uses a learnable filter as an encoder to capture user preference features and introduces a data augmentation module and a frequency ladder structure to improve the model's ability to capture different frequency features. The data augmentation module draws on the magnitude spectrum in Fourier analysis to introduce two data augmentation methods to accommodate events of different frequency magnitudes: frequency masking and frequency mixing. Moreover, we use frequency domain regularization to align the enhanced view with the original view. The frequency ladder structure splits the original sequence spectrum into multiple frequency bands, allowing the encoder to focus on different spectrum to capture different frequency patterns. Finally, comprehensive tests conducted across four benchmark datasets reveal that FARec outperforms the leading baseline models in effectiveness.

Sequential recommendation (SR) aims to model user preferences through their historical interaction data. In recent years, Transformer has been widely used for SR due to its strong capability of modeling long-term dependencies. However, recent studies have shown that current Transformer-based SR models are susceptible to the over-parameterisation and suffer from inaccurate allocation of attention weights. Moreover, most methods model user preferences only in the time domain and cannot filter noisy input, leading to inaccurate recommendation. In this work, we propose a novel Frequency Feature Enhanced Mix Calibration Attention Network for Sequential Recommendation, named FMCARec. Specifically, we design a Squeeze-and-Excitation filtering strategy to capture the frequency features and filter noisy terms in user interaction data. Convolution operation is then used to mitigate the effects of over-parameterisation on self-attention mechanism. And a spatial information calibration strategy is used to calibrate attention weights and decoupled location coding weights. Finally, contrastive learning is utilized to improve the quality of user embedding. Experimental evaluations conducted on three public datasets demonstrate that our proposed model performs significantly better than the state-of-the-art methods.

In recent years, many self-attention models have achieved good sequence recommendation performance by, capture the sequential dependencies between users and items. However, user behavior data inevitably contains noise, and the embedding of location information may interfere with item embedding semantics, causing noise in the data to further increase. At the same time, these self-attention models ignore the impact of high-relevance user-item interactions on the next item. To address these problems, we propose a new sequential recommendation system (AMFRec). Specifically, we adopted a three-way information (sequence, cross-channel, cross-feature) adaptive fusion scheme enhanced by a filtering algorithm. The proposed system is completely based on the MLP architecture attenuates noise in the frequency domain to reduce its impact on the model, and is naturally sensitive to location information. Finally, we designed a squeeze incentive module suitable for recommendation systems to activate multiple highly relevant projects. Experiments were conducted on three widely used datasets to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.

Removing random valued impulse noise (RVIN) is a challenging task in corrupted images. This article aims to study some detection and filtering algorithms which remove RVIN in images. In addition to some state-of-the-art detection and filtering algorithms, a new detection technique, measures of dispersion (MOD) algorithm, for removing very high-density RVIN proposed by authors is also compared with existing methods. In the detection stage, rank order absolute difference, rank order logarithmic difference, adaptive switching median, triangle-based linear interpolation, and MOD algorithms are considered. Median filter, fuzzy switching median filter, and fuzzy switching weighted median filter are used for filtering followed by the detection algorithms. Comparative studies in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio and structural similarity have been devised to evaluate the performance of various filtering schemes.

We focus on crowd-powered filtering, i.e., filtering a large set of items using humans. filtering is one of the most commonly used building blocks in crowdsourcing applications and systems. While solutions for crowd-powered filtering exist, they make a range of implicit assumptions and restrictions, ultimately rendering them not powerful enough for real-world applications. We describe two approaches to discard these implicit assumptions and restrictions: one, that carefully generalizes prior work, leading to an optimal, but often-times intractable solution, and another, that provides a novel way of reasoning about filtering strategies, leading to a sometimes sub-optimal, but efficiently computable solution (that is provably close to optimal). We demonstrate that our techniques lead to significant reductions in error of up to 30-40% for fixed cost over prior work in a novel crowdsourcing application: peer evaluation in online courses.
