Watermarking is a technique for labeling digital pictures by hiding secret information into images. Watermark embedding is a method to discourage unauthorized copying and identify the owner or distributor of digital data. In this paper, a new method is proposed. The watermark is processed as a visually recognizable pattern-binary image, which includes more information than the traditional symbol or ID number and is "extracted" instead of only "detected" to characterize the owner. The watermark is hidden in the host image by selectively modifying the middle-frequency part of the host image in conjunction with the human visual system(HVS) and the image discrete cosine transform(DCT). The experimental results show that this method can survive image cropping and image compression, and get better results, this is also a prospective method.

This paper proposes an efficient model named Light YOLO for hand gesture recognition on the embedded platforms. Light YOLO improves accuracy, speed, and model size, in three aspects. To deal with the small scale gestures in practical applications, we strengthen the YOLOv2 with a spatial refinement module to obtain fine-grained features. To accelerate the refined network, we propose a selective-dropout channel pruning approach to prune the redundancy convolution kernels in the network. Moreover, we introduce a dataset for hand gesture recognition in complex scenes. The experimental results on this dataset show that the proposed Light YOLO significantly improve the YOLOv2 network, i.e., accuracy from 96.80% to 98.06%, speed form 40PFS to 125FPS, and size form 250M to 4MB.

The problem about cluster synchronization of fractional-order CDNs is studied via a pinning adaptive approach in this paper. Based on the stability theory of fractional differential equations, some sufficient criteria for local and global cluster synchronization of fractional-order CDNs are derived. In this paper, the coupling configuration matrix can be asymmetric as well as reducible and the inner coupling matrix can also be asymmetric. Moreover, the number of pinning nodes in each cluster can be evaluated. Especially, when the coupling strength is large enough and the coupling configuration matrix is symmetric, cluster synchronization can be achieved via pinning a single node in each cluster. Finally, some typical examples are given to illustrate the correctness and effectiveness of our results, a surprising finding is that the synchronization performance will become better as the fractional order decreases in this simulation.

Vehicle re-identification has become a fundamental task because of the growing explosion in the use of surveillance cameras in public security. The most widely used solution is based on license plate verification. But when facing the vehicle without a license, deck cars and other license plate information error or missing situation, vehicle searching is still a challenging problem. This paper proposed a vehicle re-identification method based on deep learning which exploit a two-branch Multi-DNN Fusion Siamese Neural Network (MFSNN) to fuses the classification outputs of color, model and pasted marks on the windshield and map them into a Euclidean space where distance can be directly used to measure the similarity of arbitrary two vehicles. In order to achieve this goal, we present a method of vehicle color identification based on Alex net, a method of vehicle model identification based on VGG net, a method of pasted marks detection and identification based on Faster R-CNN. We evaluate our MFSNN method on VehicleID dataset and in the experiment. Experiment results show that our method can achieve promising results.

Recent methods based on mid-level visual concepts have shown promising capability in human action recognition field. Automatically discovering semantic entities such as parts for an action class remains challenging. In this paper, we focus on discovering distinctive action parts for recognition of human actions by learning and selecting a small number of discriminative part detectors directly from training videos. We initially train a large collection of candidate Exemplar-LDA detectors from clusters obtained by clustering spatiotemporal patches in whitened space. A novel Coverage-Entropy curve is proposed as a means of measuring the representative and discriminative capabilities of part detectors, and used to select a set of compact and meaningful detectors out of the vast candidates. By integrating these mined detectors into "bag of parts" representation, our approach demonstrates state-of-the-art performance on the UCF50 dataset.

There are many multi-objective planning problems in emergency decision-making domain. HTN planners were widely used in emergency decision-making, while they have limited ability to solve optimization, especially multi-objective optimization. Aimed to handling multi-objective in HTN planners, this paper proposes a novel method based on SHOP2, which is a domain-independent state-based forward HTN planner. The method uses a weighted vector to mirror the decision maker's performance for various objectives and an anytime search algorithm to improve the ability to find the best solution plan. Finally, a case of emergency evacuation is given to testify the effectiveness of the method.

A large electrolytic capacitor is always used to make dc-link voltage stable in a single-phase to three-phase power converter. However, the large electrolytic capacitor occupies a large volume and has a short lifetime as to the home appliances. And additional PFC circuit is needed to correct the grid current. In order to settle these issues, a converter without electrolytic capacitor is studied in this paper. The q-axis current reference is modified for the high grid power factor operation. And the d-axis current reference is generated to achieve the flux-weakening control and to improve the waveform of the output currents and. Proportional-resonant controllers are adopted to obtain the better current performance. The simulation results verify the validity and feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, quantitative analysis was implemented to reveal the mechanism of temperature distributions inside cross-flow stack. For this purpose, a differential model of planar cross-flow SOFC stack was built. The effectiveness of this model on describing temperature distributions were full validated by experiments on single cell and a 40-cell stack. Then, the quantitative analysis was given from two aspects, namely heat produced by reactions and heat transmission between gases and solid layer. Particularly, we rigorously revealed the non-intuitive phenomenon that the fuel temperatures were decreasing inside SOFC stack along the fuel flow direction. Moreover, the research idea and the analytical method proposed in this paper also apply to co-flow and counter-flow SOFC.

The rapid progress in the research and development of electronics, sensing, signal processing, and communication networks has significantly advanced the state of applications of intelligent transportation systems(ITS). However, efficient and low-cost methods for gathering information in large-scale roads are lacking. Consequently, wireless sensor network(WSN) technologies that are low cost, low power, and self-configuring are a key function in ITS. The current state of the art of application scenarios of WSNs for urban transportation is captured in this paper, where solutions are discussed under their related application schemes. This paper also points out the potential application scenarios and design requirements of WSN for urban transportation.
