Although ray tracing produces high-fidelity, realistic images, it is considered computationally burdensome when implemented on a high rendering rate system. Perception-driven rendering techniques generate images with minimal noise and distortion that are generally acceptable to the human visual system, thereby reducing rendering costs. In this paper, we introduce a perception-entropy-driven temporal reusing method to accelerate real-time ray tracing. We first build a just noticeable difference(JND) model to represent the uncertainty of ray samples and image space masking effects. Then, we expand the shading gradient through gradient max-pooling and gradient filtering to enlarge the visual receipt field. Finally, we dynamically optimize reusable time segments to improve the accuracy of temporal reusing. Compared with Monte Carlo ray tracing, our algorithm enhances frames per second(fps) by 1.93× to 2.96× at 8 to 16 samples per pixel, significantly accelerating the Monte Carlo ray tracing process while maintaining visual quality.

Anomaly detection(AD) has been extensively studied and applied across various scenarios in recent years. However, gaps remain between the current performance and the desired recognition accuracy required for practical *** paper analyzes two fundamental failure cases in the baseline AD model and identifies key reasons that limit the recognition accuracy of existing approaches. Specifically, by Case-1, we found that the main reason detrimental to current AD methods is that the inputs to the recovery model contain a large number of detailed features to be recovered, which leads to the normal/abnormal area has not/has been recovered into its original state. By Case-2, we surprisingly found that the abnormal area that cannot be recognized in image-level representations can be easily recognized in the feature-level representation. Based on the above observations, we propose a novel recover-then-discriminate(ReDi) framework for *** takes a self-generated feature map(e.g., histogram of oriented gradients) and a selected prompted image as explicit input information to address the identified in Case-1. Additionally, a feature-level discriminative network is introduced to amplify abnormal differences between the recovered and input representations. Extensive experiments on two widely used yet challenging AD datasets demonstrate that ReDi achieves state-of-the-art recognition accuracy.

Matrix minimization techniques that employ the nuclear norm have gained recognition for their applicability in tasks like image inpainting, clustering, classification, and reconstruction. However, they come with inherent biases and computational burdens, especially when used to relax the rank function, making them less effective and efficient in real-world scenarios. To address these challenges, our research focuses on generalized nonconvex rank regularization problems in robust matrix completion, low-rank representation, and robust matrix regression. We introduce innovative approaches for effective and efficient low-rank matrix learning, grounded in generalized nonconvex rank relaxations inspired by various substitutes for the ?0-norm relaxed functions. These relaxations allow us to more accurately capture low-rank structures. Our optimization strategy employs a nonconvex and multi-variable alternating direction method of multipliers, backed by rigorous theoretical analysis for complexity and *** algorithm iteratively updates blocks of variables, ensuring efficient convergence. Additionally, we incorporate the randomized singular value decomposition technique and/or other acceleration strategies to enhance the computational efficiency of our approach, particularly for large-scale constrained minimization problems. In conclusion, our experimental results across a variety of image vision-related application tasks unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of our proposed methodologies in terms of both efficacy and efficiency when compared to most other related learning methods.

Recently, redactable blockchain has been proposed and leveraged in a wide range of real systems for its unique properties of decentralization, traceability, and transparency while ensuring controllable on-chain data redaction. However, the development of redactable blockchain is now obstructed by three limitations, which are data privacy breaches, high communication overhead, and low searching efficiency, respectively. In this paper, we propose PriChain, the first efficient privacy-preserving fine-grained redactable blockchain in decentralized settings. PriChain provides data owners with rights to control who can read and redact on-chain data while maintaining downward compatibility, ensuring the one who can redact will be able to read. Specifically, inspired by the concept of multi-authority attribute-based encryption, we utilize the isomorphism of the access control tree, realizing fine-grained redaction mechanism, downward compatibility, and collusion resistance. With the newly designed structure, PriChain can realize O(n) communication and storage overhead compared to prior O(n2) schemes. Furthermore, we integrate multiple access trees into a tree-based dictionary, optimizing searching efficiency. Theoretical analysis proves that PriChain is secure against the chosen-plaintext attack and has competitive complexity. The experimental evaluations show that PriChain realizes 10× efficiency improvement of searching and 100× lower communication and storage overhead on average compared with existing schemes.
