Due to domain shift, a large performance drop is usually observed when a trained crowd counting model is deployed in the wild. While existing domain-adaptive crowd counting methods achieve promising results, they typically regard each crowd image as a whole and reduce domain discrepancies in a holistic manner, thus limiting further improvement of domain adaptation performance. To this end, we propose to untangle domain-invariant crowd and domain-specific background from crowd images and design a fine-grained domain adaption method for crowd counting. Specifically, to disentangle crowd from background, we propose to learn crowd segmentation from point-level crowd counting annotations in a weakly-supervised manner. Based on the derived segmentation, we design a crowd-aware domain adaptation mechanism consisting of two crowd-aware adaptation modules, i.e., Crowd Region Transfer (CRT) and Crowd Density Alignment (CDA). The CRT module is designed to guide crowd features transfer across domains beyond background distractions. The CDA module dedicates to regularising target-domain crowd density generation by its own crowd density distribution. Our method outperforms previous approaches consistently in the widely-used adaptation scenarios.

We consider ergodic weighted sum rate (WSR) maximization in a massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output system. Existing solutions iteratively minimize the average WSR based on all the historical information, and use bisection search to satisfy the power constraint at each iteration, resulting in both high storage burden and high computational complexity. In contrast, we propose an efficient stochastic proximal weighted minimum mean-square error (SPWMMSE) algorithm, which updates the precoder only based on the current single channel realization, without checking the power constraint at each iteration. Furthermore, we propose a novel proximal term to incorporate all the previous channel and surrogate function information in precoder updates. Our analysis shows that SPWMMSE converges to the stationary point of the original ergodic WSR maximization problem almost surely. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of SPWMMSE over the current best alternatives.

Mânuka trees in riparian plantings on lake banks can improve water quality and its ecosystem. In this study, we used multisource remote sensing data analysis on a mânuka experiment plot in Lake Waikare catchment to understand the role of Mânuka trees in mitigating pollution and climate change effects. We evaluate experiment plots with and without Mânuka trees. We compare soil moisture sensors in both these areas and calculate soil water retention and soil loss.

Focusing on the privacy concerns and leakage abuse of sensory data collection in mobile crowdsensing (MCS) environment, we propose a crowdsensed data-oriented distributed and secure spatial query scheme while ensuring data privacy as long as query patterns. To cater to the demands of real-world MCS workloads, we designed a distributed multi-layer architecture and leveraged distributed hash functions(DHT) and broadcast encryption(BE) to achieve load-balancing and enforce access control. Our scheme incorporates a recently developed cryptographic tool–function secret sharing (FSS) to safeguard the query pattern and sensory data from potential compromises at the server *** analysis demonstrates that our scheme achieves affordable query complexity while satisfying adaptive $\mathcal{L}$-semantic security. Encouraging experimental results substantiate the efficacy of our scheme, the growth rates of query cost diminishes as the number of records and participants increases. These findings emphasize the suitability of our scheme for crowdsensing applications with fine-grained access control requirements and establish it as an efficient cryptographic tool that holds promise for diverse MCS applications.
