In wireless sensor networks, to obtain a long network lifetime is a fundamental issue while without sacrificing crucial aspects of quality of service (area coverage, sensing reliability, and network connectivity). In this paper, we present a Voronoi-based sleeping configuration to deal with different sensing radii and location error. With our proposed sleeping candidate condition, redundant sensors are optionally identified and scheduled to sleep in order to extend the system lifetime while maintaining adequate sensor redundancy to tolerate sensor failures, energy depletions, and location error. Simulation results show that there is a tradeoff among energy conservation, area coverage, and fault tolerance, which varies between different sleeping candidate conditions.

A theoretical study for modeling technique of the remote sensing image classification based on the minimum description length (MDL) principle is presented in the paper. According to the MDL principle, modeling problem is an optimization procedure to find the shortest expected code length. Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence is adopted as the system cost function to measure expected codelength, and the codelength will be the model we desired. The advantage of using the MDL principle to build appropriate model is analyzed theoretically, model optimization technique also is described.

To infrared images, the contrast of target and background is low, dim small targets have no concrete shapes and their textures cannot be reliable predicted. The paper puts forward a novel algorithm to fuse mid-wave and long-wave infrared images and detect targets. Firstly, the source images are decomposed by wavelet transformation. In usual, targets in infrared images are man-made, and their fractal dimension is different comparing with natural background. In wavelet transformation domain high-frequency part, we calculate local fractal dimension and set up fusion rule to merge corresponding sub-images of two matching source images. In low-frequency, we extract local maximum gray level to fuse them. Then reconstruct image by wavelet inverse transformation and obtain fused result image. In fusion results, the contrast between targets and background has obvious changes. And targets can be detected using contrast threshold. The experimental results show that the method proposed in this paper using wavelet transformation fractal dimension to fuse dual band infrared images, and then detect targets is better than using mid-wave or long -wave infrared images detect targets alone.

A quick 3D needle segmentation algorithm for 3D US data is described in this paper. The algorithm includes the 3D quick randomized Hough transform (3DGHT), which is based on the 3D randomized Hough transform and coarse-fine searching strategy. We tested it with water phantom. The results show that our algorithm works well in 3D US images with angular deviation less than 1 degree and position deviation less than 1 mm, and the computational time of segmentation with 35 MB data is within 1s.

Short-term forecasting of travel time is essential for the success of intelligent transportation system. In this paper, we review the state-of-art of short-term traffic forecasting models and outline their basic ideas, related works, advantages and disadvantages of each model. An improved adaptive exponential smoothing (IAES) model is also proposed to overcome the drawbacks of the previous adaptive exponential smoothing model. Then, comparing experiments are carried out under normal traffic condition and abnormal traffic condition to evaluate the performance of four main branches of forecasting models on direct travel time data obtained by license plate matching (LPM). The results of experiments show each model seems to have its own strength and weakness. The forecasting performance of IASE is superior to other models in shorter forecasting horizon (one and two step forecasting) and the IASE is capable of dealing with all kind of traffic conditions.

An efficient image denoising algorithm is introduced. Firstly, image pixels are classified into noisy pixels and noise-free pixels by four directional operators. Then an adaptive weighted median filter is designed to remove and restore the detected noisy pixels and keep the noise-free ones unchanged. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm preserves image details well while removing impulsive noise efficiently, and its filtering performance is significantly superior to the classical median filter and some other typical and recently developed improved median filters.

A novel way achieving geometrical reconstruction of actual human face through projecting two types of texture on face in short time is advanced. The first type texture is stripe which is used to establish parallax grid between images. Taking into account of its results, the second type projecting texture is used to match by virtue of its abundant traits. After realizing geometrical reconstruction, the paper provides a general way about achieving actual texture reconstruction by the outer spherical surface surrounding object. In order to uniform color, it deals with parts of images in conjunct region and makes the color change meeting a certain function on condition of keeping their original information mostly. Results show this way can improve reconstruction quality and decrease complicacy of algorithm.
