Robust Domain Adaptive Object Detection With Unified Multi-Granularity Alignment.

Domain adaptive detection aims to improve the generalization of detectors on target domain. To reduce discrepancy in feature distributions between two domains, recent approaches achieve domain adaption through feature alignment in different granularities via adversarial learning. However, they neglect the relationship between multiple granularities and different features in alignment, degrading detection.

Improved Machine Learning-Based Predictive Models for Breast Cancer Diagnosis.

Breast cancer death rates are higher than any other cancer in American women. Machine learning-based predictive models promise earlier detection techniques for breast cancer diagnosis. However, making an evaluation for models that efficiently diagnose cancer is still challenging.

SiamCAN: Real-Time Visual Tracking Based on Siamese Center-Aware Network.

In this article, we present a novel Siamese center-aware network (SiamCAN) for visual tracking, which consists of the Siamese feature extraction subnetwork, followed by the classification, regression, and localization branches in parallel. The classification branch is used to distinguish the target from background, and the regression branch is introduced to regress the bounding box of the target. To reduce the impact of manually designed anchor boxes to adapt to different target motion patterns, we design the localization branch to localize the target center directly to assist the regression branch generating accurate results.

Dual Encoding for Abstractive Text Summarization.

Recurrent neural network-based sequence-to-sequence attentional models have proven effective in abstractive text summarization. In this paper, we model abstractive text summarization using a dual encoding model. Different from the previous works only using a single encoder, the proposed method employs a dual encoder including the primary and the secondary encoders.

The Modular Design and Production of an Intelligent Robot Based on a Closed-Loop Control Strategy.

Intelligent robots are part of a new generation of robots that are able to sense the surrounding environment, plan their own actions and eventually reach their targets. In recent years, reliance upon robots in both daily life and industry has increased. The protocol proposed in this paper describes the design and production of a handling robot with an intelligent search algorithm and an autonomous identification function.

Sliding-mode control of single input multiple output DC-DC converter.

Various voltage levels are required in the vehicle mounted power system. A conventional solution is to utilize an independent multiple output DC-DC converter whose cost is high and control scheme is complicated. In this paper, we design a novel SIMO DC-DC converter with sliding mode controller.

Note: A manifold ranking based saliency detection method for camera.

Research focused on salient object region in natural scenes has attracted a lot in computer vision and has widely been used in many applications like object detection and segmentation. However, an accurate focusing on the salient region, while taking photographs of the real-world scenery, is still a challenging task. In order to deal with the problem, this paper presents a novel approach based on human visual system, which works better with the usage of both background prior and compactness prior.

Unified Saliency Detection Model Using Color and Texture Features.

Saliency detection attracted attention of many researchers and had become a very active area of research. Recently, many saliency detection models have been proposed and achieved excellent performance in various fields. However, most of these models only consider low-level features.
