Synchronization of directed complex networks has been extensively studied in the previous two decades due to its potential applications in the real world practices. To reveal and analyze the inherent mechanism of global synchronization in the complex networks with directed topologies, this paper attempts to developing a novel synchronization approach by using algebraic connectivity and PI control protocols. First, we studied the distributed PI control for synchronization in directed strongly connected networks and obtained some sufficient conditions to guarantee the networks reach global ***, a numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.

Feature extraction and estimation method are two key components of age estimation. This paper proposes a novel age estimation method based on Multi Levels Gaussian Mixture Model(MLGMM) and double layers estimation model. In the feature extraction phase, ML-GMM is used to construct different GMMs for different level features, which can well reflect the global and local age feature of facial images. In the estimation phase, double layers estimation model based on SVM-KNN is proposed. The first layer roughly divides age groups by using SVM. The second layer adopts KNN theory to find K images of consecutive age which have minimum sum of distance with the testing sample. The specific age is obtained by weighting these K age values. This paper performs a lot of experiments on mixed age database of FG-NET and MORPH-II databases. The mean absolute errors of age estimation are 3.22 years. Experimental results show that the proposed method is more effective than other methods of state-of-the-art for age estimation of facial images. It can extract more rich and complete age feature, improve the generalization ability of age estimation and reduce the mean absolute errors.

Fuzzy density is an important part of fuzzy integral, which is used to describe the reliability of classifiers in the process of fusion. Most of the fuzzy density assignment methods are based on the training priori knowledge of the classifier and ignore the difference of the testing samples themselves. To better describe the real-time reliability of the classifier in the fusion process, the dispersion of the classifier is calculated according to the decision information which outputted by the classifier. Then the divisibility of the classifier is obtained through the information entropy of the dispersion. Finally, the divisibility and the priori knowledge are combined to get the fuzzy density which can be dynamically adjusted. Experiments on JAFFE and CK databases show that, compared with traditional fuzzy integral methods, the proposed method can effectively improve the decision performance of fuzzy integral and reduce the interference of unreliable output information to decision. And it is an effective multi-classifier fusion method.

Rather than simply recognizing the action of a person individually, collective activity recognition aims to find out what a group of people is acting in a collective scene. Previous state-of-the-art methods using hand-crafted potentials in conventional graphical model which can only define a limited range of relations. Thus, the complex structural dependencies among individuals involved in a collective scenario cannot be fully modeled. In this paper, we overcome these limitations by embedding latent variables into feature space and learning the feature mapping functions in a deep learning framework. The embeddings of latent variables build a global relation containing person-group interactions and richer contextual information by jointly modeling broader range of individuals. Besides, we assemble attention mechanism during embedding for achieving more compact representations. We evaluate our method on three collective activity datasets, where we contribute a much larger dataset in this work. The proposed model has achieved clearly better performance as compared to the state-of-the-art methods in our experiments.
Although hash function learning algorithms have achieved great success in recent years, most existing hash models are off-line, which are not suitable for processing sequential or online data. To address this problem,...

The problem studied in this paper is, if the number of queries to unitary operations is fixed, say k, then when do local operations and classical communication (LOCC) suffice for optimally distinguishing bipartite unitary operations? We consider the above problem for two-qubit unitary operations in the case of k=1, showing that for two two-qubit entangling unitary operations without local parties, LOCC achieves the same distinguishability as the global operations. Specifically, we obtain the following: (i) if such two unitary operations are perfectly distinguishable by global operations, then they are perfectly distinguishable by LOCC also, and (ii) if they are not perfectly distinguishable by global operations, then LOCC can achieve the same optimal discrimination probability as the global operations.
