Wearable Organic Electrochemical Transistor Array for Skin-Surface Electrocardiogram Mapping Above a Human Heart

Electrocardiogram (ECG) mapping can provide vital information in sports training and cardiac disease diagnosis. However, most electronic devices for monitoring ECG signals need to use multiple long wires, which limit their wearability and conformability in practical applications, while wearable ECG mapping based on integrated sensor arrays has been rarely reported. Herein, ultra-flexible organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) arrays used for wearable ECG mapping on the skin surface above a human heart are presented. QRS complexes of ECG signals at different recording distances and directions relative to the heart are obtained. Furthermore, the ECG signals are successfully analyzed by the devices before and after exercise, indicating potential applications in some sports training and fitness scenarios. The OECT arrays that can conveniently monitor spacial ECG signals in the heart region may find niche applications in wearable electronics and healthcare products in the future.     

DRBR-HDR: Dual-Branch recursive band reconstruction network for HDR with large motions

Ghosting artifacts due to misaligned imaging and missing content of the moving regions are major challenges of synthesizing high dynamic range (HDR) images from multiple low-dynamic range (LDR) with different exposures in dynamic scenes. Therefore, it hopes the HDR reconstruction model can align the LDRs’ features and restore the missing content without artifacts. In the paper, a new dual-branch recursive band reconstruction network for high dynamic range (DRBR-HDR) is proposed to generate credible result in missing content regions, which not only uses global features as supplementary information to help local features from different receptive fields for efficient feature alignment but also designs a series of coarse-to-fine band representation to better repair missing areas in the process of recursion. In addition, we introduce an interactive attention mechanism for local branches to alleviate ghosting artifacts. The experimental results demonstrate that DRBR-HDR achieves state-of-the-art performance compared with that of the prevailing HDR reconstruction methods in various challenging scenes.Index Terms—inverse tone mapping, band reconstruction, global features, high dynamic range images.     

改进海鸥算法的多阈值图像分割算法北大核心CSCD

为进一步提高图像分割精度,改善传统多阈值图像分割方法计算量大、分割慢的问题,提出了改进海鸥算法(improved seagull optimization algorithm,ISOA)的多阈值图像分割方案。针对原始海鸥算法(seagull optimization algorithm,SOA)存在早熟、寻优精度不足的问题,首先,采用cubic混沌映射优化初始解,提高搜索效率;其次,引入鹰栖息优化算法(eagle perching optmizer,EPO)的缩放因子和疯狂算子进行扰动,并与麻雀搜索算法(sparow search algorithm,SSA)警戒者的位置更新相结合,优化寻优精度和收敛速度,避免陷入局部最优。利用6种基准测试函数对ISOA进行寻优性能测试。最后,将ISOA与图像分割的最优阈值选取相结合,进行基于Otsu的多阈值图像分割,并与现有分割算法进行对比。仿真结果表明,ISOA在基于Otsu的图像分割中,100%取得了最优值,且80.9%的结果优于其余算法,使图像的分割精度和质量均得到了优化。     

基于约束空间光谱联合的亚像素定位方法北大核心CSCD

针对高光谱遥感图像,提出了一种约束空间光谱的亚像素定位方法。传统的亚像素定位方法以解混的结果作为输入,可能无法充分利用高光谱图像丰富的光谱信息。本文所提出的基于约束空间光谱联合的亚像素定位方法(constraint spatial-spectral subpixel mapping,CSSSM),利用下采样将像素丰度与亚像素丰度显式联系起来,代入线性解混模型得到亚像素丰度求解的新模型。在求解过程中,通过添加稀疏性约束与平滑性约束,以限制亚像素丰度的解空间,亚像素丰度求解更精确。其中,针对亚像素丰度稀疏性先验采用重加权1范数作为新的约束,并自适应地更新权重;针对亚像素丰度空间先验信息则采用全变分(total variational,TV)正则化作为约束,然后使用乘法迭代算法求解亚像素丰度,最后利用赢者通吃的策略进行类别确定。在两个合成数据集上进行了实验,结果表明,本方法能够进一步提高亚像素定位的精度。     

On the multi-level embedding of crypto-image reversible data hiding

Crypto-space reversible image steganography has attracted increasing attention, given its ability to embed authentication information without revealing the image content. This paper presents an efficient reversible data hiding scheme for crypto-images: a block predictor is applied to compute prediction errors, then an adaptive block mapping algorithm is utilized to compress them whose amplitudes are within a small threshold, finally, this strategy can be applied in a multi-level manner to achieve a higher embedding capacity. Due to the correlations among adjacent pixels in the block, images can be sufficiently compressed to reserve abundant space for additional data embedding. Different from the prior arts, the compression code of the image is fully encrypted. Experimental results verify that the embedded data and original image can be perfectly recovered, the security is higher compared with the state-of-the-arts, and a significant improvement in the average embedding rate is achieved on two large-scale image datasets.
