In order to take advantage of the asynchronous sensing information, alleviate the sensing overhead of secondary users (SUs) and improve the detection performance, a sensor node-assisted asynchronous cooperative spectrum sensing (SN-ACSS) scheme for cognitive radio (CR) network (CRN) was proposed. In SN-ACSS, each SU is surrounded by sensor nodes (SNs), which asynchronously make hard decisions and soft decisions based on the Bayesian fusion rule instead of the SU. The SU combines these soft decisions and makes the local soft decision. Finally, the fusion center (FC) fuses the local soft decisions transmitted from SUs with different weight coefficients to attain the final soft decision. Besides, the impact of the statistics of licensed band occupancy on detection performance and the fact that different SNs have different sensing contributions are also considered in SN-ACSS scheme. Numerical results show that compared with the conventional synchronous cooperative spectrum sensing (SCSS) and the existing ACSS schemes, SN-ACSS algorithm achieves a better detection performance and lower cost with the same number of SNs.

With the rapid advancement of three-dimensional (3D) scanners and 3D point cloud acquisition technology, the application of 3D point clouds has been increasingly expanding in various fields. However, due to the limitations of 3D sensors, the collected point clouds are often sparse and non-uniform. In this work, we introduce local tactile information into the point cloud super-resolution task to aid in enhancing the resolution of the point cloud using fine-grained local details. Specifically, the local tactile point cloud is denser and more accurate compared to the low-resolution point cloud. By leveraging tactile information, we can obtain better local features. Therefore, we propose a feature extraction module that can efficiently fuse visual information with dense local tactile information. This module leverages the features from both modalities to achieve improved super-resolution results. In addition, we introduce a point cloud super-resolution dataset that includes tactile information. Qualitative and quantitative experiments show that our work performs much better than existing similar works that do not include tactile information, both in terms of handling low-resolution inputs and revealing high-fidelity details.

An improved technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) algorithm, SAE-TOPSIS, is proposed for the vertical handoff decision in heterogeneous wirelessnetworks. The signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) effects, analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and infor- mation entropy (SAE) weight method were introduced into the algorithm. Handoff decision meeting the multi-attribute quality of service (QoS) requirement is made according to an attribute matrix and weight vector using the TOPSIS algorithm. The simulation results have shown that the proposed algo- rithm can provide satisfactory performance fitted to the characteristics of the traffic.

We propose a protocol for directly measuring the concurrence of a two-qubit electronic pure entangled state. To complete this task, we first design a parity-check measurement(PCM) which is constructed by two polarization beam splitters(PBSs) and a charge detector. By using the PCM for three rounds, we can achieve the concurrence by calculating the total probability of picking up the odd parity states from the initial states. Since the conduction electron may be a good candidate for the realization of quantum computation, this protocol may be useful in future solid quantum computation.

Coverage enhancement is one of the hot research topics in wireless multimedia sensor net- works. A novel Coverage-enhancing algorithm based on three-dimensional Directional perception and co-evolution (DPCCA) is proposed in multimedia sensornetworks on the basis of the model whose pitch angle and deviation angle can be adjusted. Based on the proposed elliptical cone sensing model, we can derive the coverage area of the node and calculate the optimal pitch angle according the information of monitoring area and the nodes, and then the deviation angle is optimized based on co-evolution al- gorithm, which eliminate the overlapped and blind sensing area effectively. A set of simulations demonstrate the ef- fectiveness of our algorithm in coverage ratio.

Expression, occlusion, and pose variations are three main challenges for 3D face recognition. A novel method is presented to address 3D face recognition using scale-invariant feature transform(SIFT) features on 3D meshes. After preprocessing, shape index extrema on the 3D facial surface are selected as keypoints in the difference scale space and the unstable keypoints are removed after two screening steps. Then, a local coordinate system for each keypoint is established by principal component analysis(PCA).Next, two local geometric features are extracted around each keypoint through the local coordinate system. Additionally, the features are augmented by the symmetrization according to the approximate left-right symmetry in human face. The proposed method is evaluated on the Bosphorus, BU-3DFE, and Gavab databases, respectively. Good results are achieved on these three datasets. As a result, the proposed method proves robust to facial expression variations, partial external occlusions and large pose changes.

We propose an efficient entanglement concentration protocol (ECP) based on electron-spin cluster states assisted with single electrons. In the ECP, we adopt the electron polarization beam splitter (PBS) and the charge detector to construct the quantum nondemolition measurement. According to the result of the measurement of the charge detection, we can ultimately obtain the maximally entangled cluster states. Moreover, the discarded items can be reused in the next round to reach a high success probability. This ECP may be useful in current solid quantum computation.

In this paper, a novel video back projection super- resolution method using non-local prior is proposed. Our approach has three steps. First, we make initial motion estimation with block-matching and fine block matching to search for the pixels with similar structural content from video sequences. In this process, an adaptive technique is introduced to avoid redundant search. Second, we do initial interpolation to the input video sequences and a bilateral filtering is applied to the interpolation frames to achieve edge-preserving image smoothing. Third, a video non-local means filter is applied to modify the error image in iteration step of the iterative back projection. The experimental result shows that the proposed method can increase image details, moreover, the chessboard effect and ringing effect along image edges can be removed and sharp and clear edges in visual perception will be obtained.
