Co-saliency detection within a single image is a common vision problem that has not yet been well addressed. Existing methods often used a bottom-up strategy to infer co-saliency in an image in which salient regions are firstly detected using visual primitives such as color and shape and then grouped and merged into a co-saliency map. However, co-saliency is intrinsically perceived complexly with bottom-up and top-down strategies combined in human vision. To address this problem, this study proposes a novel end-toend trainable network comprising a backbone net and two branch nets. The backbone net uses ground-truth masks as top-down guidance for saliency prediction, whereas the two branch nets construct triplet proposals for regional feature mapping and clustering, which drives the network to be bottom-up sensitive to co-salient regions. We construct a new dataset of 2019 natural images with co-saliency in each image to evaluate the proposed method. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art accuracy with a running speed of 28 fps.

We construct a predictor-feedback cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) design with integral action, which achieves simultaneous compensation of long, actuation and communication delays, for platoons of heterogeneous vehicles whose dynamics are described by a third-order linear system with input delay. The key ingredients in our design are an underlying predictor-feedback law that achieves actuation delay compensation and an integral term of the difference between the delayed (by an amount equal to the respective communication delay) and current speed of the preceding vehicle. The latter, essentially, creates a virtual spacing variable, which can be regulated utilizing only delayed position and speed measurements from the preceding vehicle. We establish individual vehicle stability, string stability, and regulation for vehicular platoons, under the control design developed. The proofs rely on combining an input-output approach (in the frequency domain), with derivation of explicit solutions for the closed-loop systems, and they are enabled by the actuation and communication delays-compensating property of the design. We demonstrate numerically the control and model parameters' conditions of string stability, while we also present simulation results, in realistic scenarios, including a scenario in which the leading vehicle's trajectory is obtained from NGSIM data. All case studies confirm the effectiveness of the design developed. IEEE

This study introduces an adaptive integral sliding mode disturbance observer (AISMDOB)-based robust bidirectional platoon control method, aiming to ensure mesh stability in vehicular systems. Most existing platoon control studies only focus on error propagation stability in either the longitudinal or lateral direction, neglecting the uncertainties in kinematics and dynamics of vehicular systems. The study proposes new coupled spacing error dynamics derived from vehicle kinematics and extended look-ahead-based coupled spacing errors to ensure both the longitudinal and lateral error propagation stability (that is, mesh stability) and are subsequently utilized to develop the novel AISMDOB, which improves the existing integral sliding mode disturbance observers (ISMDOBs) by incorporating adaptive estimation of unknown disturbance bounds while preserving their advantages. The AISMDOB-based platoon control method is then proposed using both robust kinematic and dynamic controllers to effectively compensate for the kinematic disturbances and dynamic model uncertainties, thereby reducing chattering phenomenon and ensuring the asymptotic convergence of spacing and velocity errors. Additionally, the proposed method can prevent cutting-corner behaviors during cornering maneuvers by utilizing the coupled spacing error dynamics. Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method through comparison with ISMDOB-based, sliding mode control (SMC)-based, and previous extended look-ahead-based methods.
