Mural image inpainting is far less explored compared to its natural image counterpart and remains largely unsolved. Most existing image-inpainting methods tend to take the target image as the only input and directly repair the damage to generate a visually plausible result. These methods obtain high performance in restoration or completion of some pre-defined objects, e.g., human face, fabric texture, and printed texts, etc., however, are not suitable for repairing murals with varying subjects and large damaged areas. Moreover, due to discrete colors in paints, mural inpainting may suffer from apparent color bias. To this end, in this paper, we propose a line drawing guided progressive mural inpainting method. It divides the inpainting process into two steps: structure reconstruction and color correction, implemented by a structure reconstruction network (SRN) and a color correction network (CCN), respectively. In structure reconstruction, SRN utilizes the line drawing as an assistant to achieve large-scale content authenticity and structural stability. In color correction, CCN operates a local color adjustment for missing pixels which reduces the negative effects of color bias and edge jumping. The proposed approach is evaluated against the current state-of-the-art image inpainting methods. Qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method in mural image inpainting.

Repetitive, or multipass, processes are a class of 2D systems of both practical and algorithmic/theoretical interest whose dynamics cannot be analysed or controlled using standard (1D) systems theory. Recently it has been shown that the modelling of the boundary conditions, also known as the process initial conditions, is a crucial feature in the analysis and control of these processes. This paper presents some further results on the effects of so-called 'dynamic' process initial conditions on the controllability and stability properties of discrete linear repetitive processes. Previous work has shown that these dynamic process initial conditions alone can destroy the stability properties of these processes. Hence their effects must be 'adequately' accounted for the process modelling stage in order to ensure that subsequent analysis does not lead to incorrect results/conclusions. The main results developed in this paper can be summarised as follows. (i) Computationally efficient stability tests which can, in effect, be applied using standard, or 1D, linear systems tests. (ii) Characterisation of so-called pass controllability in the form of matrix rank based conditions. (iii) Conditions under which the dynamic process initial conditions can be selected to ensure stability and pass controllability.

Low-light image enhancement (LLIE) aims to improve low-illumination images. However, existing methods face two challenges: (1) uncertainty in restoration from diverse brightness degradations;(2) loss of texture and color information caused by noise suppression and light enhancement. In this paper, we propose a novel enhancement approach, CodeEnhance, by leveraging quantized priors and image refinement to address these challenges. In particular, we reframe LLIE as learning an image-to-code mapping from low-light images to discrete codebook, which has been learned from high-quality images. To enhance this process, a Semantic Embedding Module (SEM) is introduced to integrate semantic information with low-level features, and a Codebook Shift (CS) mechanism, designed to adapt the pre-learned codebook to better suit the distinct characteristics of our low-light dataset. Additionally, we present an Interactive Feature Transformation (IFT) module to refine texture and color information during image reconstruction, allowing for interactive enhancement based on user preferences. Extensive experiments on both real-world and synthetic benchmarks demonstrate that the incorporation of prior knowledge and controllable information transfer significantly enhances LLIE performance in terms of quality and fidelity. The proposed CodeEnhance exhibits superior robustness to various degradations, including uneven illumination, noise, and color distortion. Copyright © 2024, The Authors. All rights reserved.

In this paper, we tackle Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) by leveraging the high capability of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). We design a two-stage approach that employs the Fast-YOLO object detector for counter detection and evaluates three different CNN-based approaches for counter recognition. In the AMR literature, most datasets are not available to the research community since the images belong to a service company. In this sense, we introduce a new public dataset, called UFPR-AMR dataset, with 2,000 fully and manually annotated images. This dataset is, to the best of our knowledge, three times larger than the largest public dataset found in the literature and contains a well-defined evaluation protocol to assist the development and evaluation of AMR methods. Furthermore, we propose the use of a data augmentation technique to generate a balanced training set with many more examples to train the CNN models for counter recognition. In the proposed dataset, impressive results were obtained and a detailed speed/accuracy trade-off evaluation of each model was performed. In a public dataset, state-of-the-art results were achieved using less than 200 images for training. Copyright © 2019, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Research in mobile robotics is growing into applications for difficult-to-access environments, such as in rescue and transport missions. Furthermore, autonomous vehicles can perform data collection in complex approach areas. Therefore, the study of hybrid unmanned vehicles is relevant for several areas, since these vehicles can act in different domains. The developed vehicle, called Hydrone, is designed in a quadrotor-type structure and equipped with a set of aerial and underwater propellers, which are fixed and independent between them. In this sense, this work presents the mathematical modeling of an unmanned hybrid vehicle, which can navigate underwater and aerial environments. Furthermore, the modeling considers the ground effect due to the influence on the vehicle’s trajectory change and the dynamics of the transition zone between water-air and air-water. These dynamics are important to evaluate the controller’s performance. Numerical simulations consider both transitions (water-air and air-water) and they are performed to discuss the influence of acting forces on the vehicle stability and position-tracking performance using a classical control system. © 2024, The Authors.

As a basic and indispensable module, LiDAR odom-etry estimation is widely used in robotics. In recent years, learning-based modeling approaches for odometry estimation have been validated to be feasible. However, it is necessary to consider security factors as the highest priorities when we apply the learning-based model to certain high-risk real-world scenarios, such as autonomous driving. The odometry uncertainty estimation provides more valuable information for downstream tasks, such as route planning and navigation. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end neural network (namely CertainOdom) to solve odometry and uncertainty estimation tasks by applying multi-task learning. Instead of using the manually-tuned hyper-parameters, we employ the learnable uncertainties to weigh the balance between the error of translation and orientation in the loss function. We evaluate the estimated trajectory and uncertainty on KITTI dataset. We also compare the robustness against the traditional geometry-based methods on our artificially degraded KITTI LiDAR dataset. Extensive experimental results show that our model with uncertainty weighted loss achieves competitive performance in LiDAR odometry estimation. We also explain our uncertainties qualitatively and quantitatively.

Learning to act in an environment to maximise rewards is among the brain’s key functions. This process has often been conceptualised within the framework of reinforcement learning, which has also gained prominence in machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) as a way to optimise decision- making. A common aspect of both biological and machine reinforcement learning is the reactivation of previously experienced episodes, referred to as replay. Replay is important for memory consolidation in biological neural networks, and is key to stabilising learning in deep neural networks. Here, we review recent developments concerning the functional roles of replay in the fields of neuroscience and AI. Complementary progress suggests how replay might support learning processes, including generalisation and continual learning, affording opportunities to transfer knowledge across the two fields to advance the understanding of biological and artificial learning and memory. © 2021, CC BY-SA.
