This study investigates the optimization of signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) in superconducting quantum computing readout signals through adaptive filtering. Quantum computing technology has the potential to revolutionize various fields by delivering exponential speedup in solving certain computational problems. However, the technology's practical implementation is hindered by the difficulty of extracting clean, reliable signals during the readout phase, with various sources of noise presenting a significant barrier to clean signals. This noise, often present in readout profiles due to imperfect isolation, degrades the system's overall SNR, thus impeding the ability to extract the quantum state accurately. The research leverages the power of adaptive filtering to improve the SNR of quantum computing readout signals. Specifically, an adaptive filter is implemented in a PYNQ overlay on an FPGA, and eventually will be connected to a quantum computing system. The system models the noise with a Least Mean Squares (LMS) adaptive filter, and then subtracts the estimated noise from the received signal to improve the SNR. A Direct Memory Access (DMA) channel is used to handle the signal processing, delivering efficient, high-speed data transfer between the PYNQ system and the hardware. The study explores the benefits of this adaptive filtering technique, potentially providing a significant contribution to practical and fast quantum computing.

In medical image analysis, the long-range spatial features are often not accurately obtained by the traditional convolutional neural networks. Hence, we propose a TransClaw U-Net network structure. The transformer part is added after three convolution operations to fuse shallow features extracted by convolution operations for maximally encoding the long-range spatial features between patches. The “Claw” in TransClaw U-net means that we add the bottom upsampling part to retain the deepest feature information for detail segmentation. In addition, the modified three-channel global attention mechanism to blend the outputs of three channels (the encoding part, the bottom upsampling part and the decoding part) to effectively extract image contours. The experimental results on Synapse Multi-organ Segmentation Dataset show that TransClaw U-Net performs better than other networks. The results of ablation experiments prove the effectiveness of the three improved components of the network and influence of input image size and skip-connection numbers on network performance. The source code will be publicly available once the paper is accepted.

Blind image quality assessment (BIQA), which aims to accurately predict the image quality without any pristine reference information, has been extensively concerned in the past decades. Especially, with the help of deep neural networks, great progress has been achieved. However, it remains less investigated on BIQA for night-time images (NTIs) which usually suffers from complicated authentic distortions such as reduced visibility, low contrast, additive noises, and color distortions. These diverse authentic degradations particularly challenges the design of effective deep neural network for blind NTI quality evaluation (NTIQE). In this paper, we propose a novel deep decomposition and bilinear pooling network (DDB-Net) to better address this issue. The DDB-Net contains three modules, i.e., an image decomposition module, a feature encoding module, and a bilinear pooling module. The image decomposition module is inspired by the Retinex theory and involves decoupling the input NTI into an illumination layer component responsible for illumination information and a reflection layer component responsible for content information. Then, the feature encoding module involves learning feature representations of degradations that are rooted in the two decoupled components separately. Finally, by modeling illumination-related and content-related degradations as two-factor variations, the two feature sets are bilinearly pooled together to form a unified representation for quality prediction. The superiority of the proposed DDB-Net has been well validated by extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets. The source code will be made available soon. © 2022, CC BY.

Video quality assessment (VQA) is an important processing task, aiming at predicting the quality of videos in a manner highly consistent with human judgments of perceived quality. Traditional VQA models based on natural image and/or video statistics, which are inspired both by models of projected images of the real world and by dual models of the human visual system, deliver only limited prediction performances on real-world user-generated content (UGC), as exemplified in recent large-scale VQA databases containing large numbers of diverse video contents crawled from the web. Fortunately, recent advances in deep neural networks and Large Multimodality Models (LMMs) have enabled significant progress in solving this problem, yielding better results than prior handcrafted models. Numerous deep learning-based VQA models have been developed, with progress in this direction driven by the creation of content-diverse, large-scale human-labeled databases that supply ground truth psychometric video quality data. Here, we present a comprehensive survey of recent progress in the development of VQA algorithms and the benchmarking studies and databases that make them possible. We also analyze open research directions on study design and VQA algorithm architectures. Github link: https://***/taco-group/Video-Quality-Assessment-A-Comprehensive-Survey. © 2024, CC BY-NC-ND.

A great deal of attention has been paid to Siamese networks in visual object tracking. However, the Siamese network often faces the problem of over-fitting when adapting to new scenes, where the training samples for scene adaptation are limited. In this paper, we propose a meta-learning based Siamese network with channel-wise self-attention (CSA) on the basis of SiamFC3s architecture to overcome this limitation, in which meta-learning mechanism is adopted for efficient scene adaptation and CSA is used for better representation of the target object. Specifically, in the meta-learning phase, only part of the neurons' parameters, called hyper parameters are updated, leading to lightweight adaptation, which not only reduces the computational burden of the network but also overcomes the over-fitting problem. Experimental results based on benchmark OTB-100 have shown that our meta-learning based SiamFC3s incorporating the proposed CSA outperforms the baseline method SiamFC3s by 3.4% in success rate and 5.6% in precision rate. © 2021 ACM.

For semi-supervised learning with imbalance classes, the long-tailed distribution of data will increase the model prediction bias toward dominant classes, undermining performance on less frequent classes. Existing methods also face challenges in ensuring the selection of sufficiently reliable pseudo-labels for model training and there is a lack of mechanisms to adjust the selection of more reliable pseudo-labels based on different training stages. To mitigate this issue, we introduce uncertainty into the modeling process for pseudo-label sampling, taking into account that the model performance on the tailed classes varies over different training stages. For example, at the early stage of model training, the limited predictive accuracy of model results in a higher rate of uncertain pseudo-labels. To counter this, we propose an Uncertainty-Aware Dynamic Threshold Selection (UDTS) approach. This approach allows the model to perceive the uncertainty of pseudo-labels at different training stages, thereby adaptively adjusting the selection thresholds for different classes. Compared to other methods such as the baseline method FixMatch, UDTS achieves an increase in accuracy of at least approximately 5.26%, 1.75%, 9.96%, and 1.28% on the natural scene image datasets CIFAR10-LT, CIFAR100-LT, STL-10-LT, and the medical image dataset TissueMNIST, respectively.

To tackle the issues of catastrophic forgetting and overfitting in few-shot class-incremental learning (FSCIL), previous work has primarily concentrated on preserving the memory of old knowledge during the incremental phase. The role of pre-trained model in shaping the effectiveness of incremental learning is frequently underestimated in these studies. Therefore, to enhance the generalization ability of the pre-trained model, we propose Learning with Prior Knowledge (LwPK) by introducing nearly free prior knowledge from a few unlabeled data of subsequent incremental classes. We cluster unlabeled incremental class samples to produce pseudo-labels, then jointly train these with labeled base class samples, effectively allocating embedding space for both old and new class data. Experimental results indicate that LwPK effectively enhances the model resilience against catastrophic forgetting, with theoretical analysis based on empirical risk minimization and class distance measurement corroborating its operational principles.

Deep learning has achieved substantial improvement on single-channel speech enhancement. The performance of multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs)-based methods is limited by the ability to capture the long-term contextual information. The recurrent neural networks (RNNs), e.g., long short-term memory (LSTM) model, are able to capture the long-term temporal dependencies, but suffer from the high latency and the complex training process. Recently, temporal convolution networks (TCNs), employing 1-D dilated convolution and residual learning, achieves gained considerable success in speech enhancement. In this paper we propose a novel TCN model that employs multi-branch structure, called multi-branch TCN (MB-TCN), for monaural speech enhancement. The MB-TCN exploits split-transform-aggregate design, which is expected to obtain strong representational power with higher parameter efficiency. The MB-TCN model applies 1-D causal dilated CNN in each branch to expand receptive fields for capturing long-term temporal contextual information. Our extensive experimental investigation suggests that MB-TCNs outperform the residual LSTMs (ResLSTMs), TCNs, and the CNNs with dense aggregations (DenseNet) in terms of speech intelligibility and quality, while providing superior parameter efficiency. Furthermore, our proposed MB-TCN model demonstrates highly competitive performance to multiple state-of-the-art speech enhancement methods in terms of five widely used objective metrics. © 2022, The Authors.

Background: Noncontrast computed tomography (CT) scans are not used for evaluating left ventricle myocardial mass (LV mass), which is typically evaluated with contrast CT or cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). Objectives: The purpose of the study was to assess the feasibility of LV mass estimation from standard, ECG-gated, noncontrast CT using an artificial intelligence (AI) approach and compare it with coronary CT angiography (CTA) and CMR. Methods: We enrolled consecutive patients who underwent coronary CTA, which included noncontrast CT calcium scanning and contrast CTA, and CMR. The median interval between coronary CTA and CMR was 22 days (interquartile range: 3-76). We utilized a no new UNet AI model that automatically segmented noncontrast CT structures. AI measurement of LV mass was compared to contrast CTA and CMR. Results: A total of 316 patients (age: 57.1 ± 16.7 years, 56% male) were included. The AI segmentation took on average 22 seconds per case. An excellent correlation was observed between AI and contrast CTA LV mass measures (r = 0.84, P < 0.001), with no significant differences (136.5 ± 55.3 g vs 139.6 ± 56.9 g, P = 0.133). Bland-Altman analysis showed minimal bias of 2.9. When compared to CMR, measured LV mass was higher with AI (136.5 ± 55.3 g vs 127.1 ± 53.1 g, P < 0.001). There was an excellent correlation between AI and CMR (r = 0.85, P < 0.001), with a small bias (−9.4). There were no statistical differences between the correlations of LV mass between contrast CTA and CMR or AI and CMR. Conclusions: The AI-based automated estimation of LV mass from noncontrast CT demonstrated excellent correlations and minimal biases when compared to contrast CTA and CMR. © 2024 The Authors
