Multi-scale parallel gated local feature transformer.

Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (VSLAM) is a crucial technology for autonomous mobile vision robots. However, existing methods often suffer from low localization accuracy and poor robustness in scenarios with significant scale variations and low-texture environments, primarily due to insufficient feature extraction and reduced matching precision. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an improved multi-scale local feature matching algorithm based on LoFTR, named MSpGLoFTR.

Feature Interaction Learning Network for Cross-Spectral Image Patch Matching.

Recently, feature relation learning has attracted extensive attention in cross-spectral image patch matching. However, most feature relation learning methods can only extract shallow feature relations and are accompanied by the loss of useful discriminative features or the introduction of disturbing features. Although the latest multi-branch feature difference learning network can relatively sufficiently extract useful discriminative features, the multi-branch network structure it adopts has a large number of parameters.

A YOLOv7 incorporating the Adan optimizer based corn pests identification method.

Major pests of corn insects include corn borer, armyworm, bollworm, aphid, and corn leaf mites. Timely and accurate detection of these pests is crucial for effective pests control and scientific decision making. However, existing methods for identification based on traditional machine learning and neural networks are limited by high model training costs and low recognition accuracy.

A method overview in smart aquaculture.

Aquaculture is an important part of agricultural economy. In the past, major farming accidents often occurred due to subjective experience. There are many factors affecting the water quality of aquaculture.

A Water Quality Prediction Method Based on the Deep LSTM Network Considering Correlation in Smart Mariculture.

An accurate prediction of cage-cultured water quality is a hot topic in smart mariculture. Since the mariculturing environment is always open to its surroundings, the changes in water quality parameters are normally nonlinear, dynamic, changeable, and complex. However, traditional forecasting methods have lots of problems, such as low accuracy, poor generalization, and high time complexity.

A Self-Adaptive Progressive Support Selection Scheme for Collaborative Wideband Spectrum Sensing.

The sampling rate of wideband spectrum sensing for sparse signals can be reduced by sub-Nyquist sampling with a Modulated Wideband Converter (MWC). In collaborative spectrum sensing, the fusion center recovers the spectral support from observation and measurement matrices reported by a network of CRs, to improve the precision of spectrum sensing. However, the MWC has a very high hardware complexity due to its parallel structure; it sets a fixed threshold for a decision without considering the impact of noise intensity, and needs a priori information of signal sparsity order for signal support recovery.

[Study on rapid recognition technique of schistosome susceptibility water body I Animal skin making and effect assessment].

Objective: To develop a bionic animal skin and evaluate its detective effect of cercariae so as to provide a new technique for the monitoring of the schistosome susceptibility water body.

Methods: A bionic animal skin was made with pigskin and the experiments were carried out for evaluating its detective effects of cercariae in laboratory and simulate fields, and at the same time, the sentinel mouse method was used as the control.

Results: In the laboratory, the cercariae were found in 10-, 30-, 60-cercaria subgroups in the bionic animal skin group after 1 and 2 hours, but the cercariae were found only in the 60-cercaria subgroup in the sentinel mouse group.

[Knowledge, attitude and practice on schistosomiasis control of chronic schistosomiasis patients in Poyang Lake area, Nanchang City].

Objective: To understand the present situation of the chronic schistosomiasis patients' knowledge, attitude and practice on schistosomiasis control in Nanchang City.

Methods: The knowledge, attitude and values on schistosomiasis control of 523 chronic schistosomiasis patients in Nanchang County, Jinxian County and Xinjian District in the Poyang Lake District were investigated with questionnaires. And the accuracy rates of the knowledge, attitude and practice among the patient groups of different counties, genders, age groups, occupations and educational levels were analyzed.

[Investigation on human infections in Nanchang City in 2014].

Objective: To investigate the endemic situation of human infection in Nanchang City in 2014 and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide the evidence for control measures.

[Effect of schistosomiasis control in towns reached criteria of infection controlled in Nanchang City].

Objective: To evaluate the effect of schistosomiasis control in towns that had reached the criteria of infection controlled in Nanchang City.

Methods: The residents and livestock of 14 towns that had reached the criteria of infection controlled in Nanchang, Xinjian and Jinxian counties of Nanchang City were sampled to investigate the schistosomiasis endemic situation, Oncomelania hupensis snail status, and data of schistosomiasis control work.

Results: The positive rate of serum tests of the residents was 2.

[Epidemic situation of acute schistosomiasis in Nanchang City of Jiangxi Province from 2005 to 2012].

Methods: The data of acute schistosomiasis were collected and analyzed with the descriptive epidemiology method in Nanchang City from 2005 to 2012.

Results: A total of 52 acute schistosomiasis cases were reported in Nanchang City from 2005 to 2012.

[Effect of niclosamide spreading oil on killing schistosome cercariae].

Dechlorinated water (100 ml, 30 degrees C) was put into a plate (diameter 15 cm), and 1% niclosamide spreading oil 5 microl was added, then a ring of Schistosoma japonicum cercariae were picked up to the plate. The time of killing all the cercariae was observed at three time points (immediately, 24, 48 h), and the dechlorinated water was used as control. The results showed that schistosome cercariae were all killed in three minutes by 1% niclosamide spreading oil at the three time points.
