Development of stereopsis technology that gives reality is an interesting research area for a long time. Stereopsis technology expresses actuality with effect of two eyes. Correct stereo matching depends on the exact estimation of image disparity that contains depth information. Wavelet transform can be applied to analyze signals in stereo vision, but related research is insufficient. In this paper, we propose a fast and correct stereo image matching method through edge detection that uses multi-resolution wavelet transform. Also, we analyze the effect of noise during the edge detection process, and make a comparison with traditional methods.

DNA tile self-assembly has been proved to enable programmable manipulation of biological systems as a tool of molecular computation. It is mainly based on the property that is the spontaneous self-ordering of substructure into superstructure driven by annealing of Watson-Crick base-pairing DNA sequences. We take full advantage of the superiority of DNA tile self-assembly to construct a molecular computing system that implements a solution for the 0-1 planning problem. This algorithm can independently and simultaneously yield the data pool, containing all possible solutions when all basic operation tiles are designed beforehand. Then we can use some advanced bio-chemistry techniques to select the optimization solutions of the 0-1 planning problem. Our work has shown that it is possible to work with an exponential number of components to solve NP-complete problems. The method proposed here also can reduce the number of laboratory steps required for computation so that it can improve the computation speed.

DNA tile self-assembly is a promising paradigm for nanotechnology. Recently, many researches show that computation by DNA tile self-assembly maybe scalable. In this paper, we propose the algorithm for elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman key exchange based on DNA tile self-assembly. First we give the DNA tile self-assembly model to compute the scalar multiplication, then we can successfully implement the Diffie-Hellman key exchange over elliptic curve by extracting the result strand of the scalar multiplication.

A variational model which is used to locate at the boundary of the object in the designated region is presented in this paper. This is done by adding an intersect area term into our model, which will play an important role in this paper. In this model, we need to construct an energy functional ε using two level set functions. One is used to capture the object of interest, the other one indicates image region which should be corrected. By minimizing the proposed model with respected to both two functions,the approach permits to segment the more accurate boundary. We implement our model with two algorithms, advantages and disadvantages of the two algorithms are discussed according to the experiment result. At the same time, we compare our model with a model proposed by Chunming Li et al. The result shows that our model is more accurate.

Supply chain is a complex system. The complexity of supply chain can be categorized into two kinds: the complexity of supply chain components as well as the complexity of the supply chain organizations, and both information uncertainty with system dynamics are the main reasons that lead to supply chain complexity. Concerning supply chain complexity, we review the related researching approaches in the literature from uncertainty, the measure of supply chain complexity as well as the dynamic analysis of the supply chain (including dynamic games), and give suggestions in the future research.

A novel audio watermarking algorithm based on the audio amplitude inversion is proposed. Based on extensive experiments, we found that the similarity of the original audio's waveform and the attacked audio's waveform was high when the frame length was appropriate. And it had little influence on the human hearing after inversing the audio amplitude in a period of time. Based on those features, at first we divided the host audio into several frames, then inversed the audio amplitude to embed watermark. We extracted the watermark by judging the polarity of the similarity, and the resynchronization was designed to increase the correct rate. Experimental results show that the watermarked audio has good imperceptibility and is robust against different kinds of attacks, such as noise adding, low-pass filtering, resampling, requantization, echo, MP3 compression, especially it can resist the attacks of the DA/AD conversions and desynchronization.

Most experimental and decoding algorithm studies of brain neural signals assume that neurons transmit information as a rate coding, but recent studies on the fast cortical computations indicate that temporal coding is probably a more biologically plausible scheme used by neurons. We introduce spiking neural networks (SNN) which consist of spiking neurons propagate information by the timing of spikes to analyze the cortical neural spike trains directly without temporal information lost. The SNN based temporal pattern classification is compared with the conventional artificial neural networks (ANN) based firing rate analysis. The results show that the SNN algorithm can achieve higher accuracy, which demonstrates that temporal coding is a viable code for fast neural information processing and the SNN approach is suitable for recognizing the temporal pattern in the cortical neural signals.

Pedestrian detection plays an important role in automated surveillance system. However, it is challenging to detect pedestrian robustly and accurately in a cluttered environment. In this paper, we propose a new cooperative pedestrian detection method using both colour and thermal image sequences, which is compared with the method using only colour image sequence and that using multi-modal fusion. Experiment results show that our cooperative detection mechanism could get more accurate pedestrian areas, a lower false alarm rate and a higher detection precision. Therefore, it has broad application prospects in the field of industry and military.

B-scan ultrasound is the primary means for the diagnosis of fatty liver. However, due to use of various ultrasound equipments, poor quality of ultrasonic images and physical differences of patients, fatty liver diagnosis is mainly qualitative, and often depends on the subjective judgment of technicians and doctors. Therefore, computer-aided feature extraction and quantitative analysis of liver B-scan ultrasonic images will help to improve clinical diagnostic accuracy, repeatability and efficiency, and could provide a measure for severity of hepatic steatosis. This paper proposed a novel method of fatty liver diagnosis based on liver B-mode ultrasonic images using support vector machine (SVM). Fatty liver diagnosis was transformed into a pattern recognition problem of liver ultrasound image features. According to the different characteristics of fatty liver and healthy liver, important image features were extracted and selected to distinguish between the two categories. These features could be represented by near-field light-spot density, near-far-field grayscale ratio, grayscale co-occurrence matrix, and neighborhood gray-tone difference matrix (NGTDM). A SVM classifier was modeled and trained using the clinical ultrasound images of both fatty liver and normal liver. It was then exploited to classify normal and fatty livers, achieving a high recognition rate. The diagnostic results are satisfactorily consistent with those made by doctors. This method could be used for computer-aided diagnosis of fatty liver, and help doctors identify the fatty liver ultrasonic images rapidly, objectively and accurately.
