The joint integrated probabilistic data association (JIPDA) filter is effective for automatic multi-target tracking in cluttered environments. However, it is well-known that when targets are closely spaced, the JIPDA filter encounters the track coalescence problem, leading to inaccurate state estimations. This paper proposes a novel particle swarm optimization-based JIPDA (PSO-JIPDA) algorithm, which improves the state estimation accuracy by optimizing the posterior probability density, effectively addressing the information fusion challenge in multi-target tracking scenarios with closely spaced targets. The trace of the covariance matrix of the posterior density serves as the objective func... More >

Extended target tracking in occlusion scenarios often suffers from split errors due to sensor limitations and complex target interactions, leading to degraded tracking performance for autonomous vehicles and surveillance systems. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a Gaussian Wasserstein distance-enhanced spatio-temporal similarity method for split error correction. We first analyze the spatio-temporal characteristics of split extended targets and model their geometric uncertainties via elliptical Gaussian distributions. Then, we integrate the Gaussian Wasserstein distance into the clue-aware trajectory similarity calculation framework to simultaneously capture positional and sh... More >

The wide-ranging expansion of smart grid networks has resulted in insurmountable difficulties that must be overcome to ensure the security and reliability of crucial energy infrastructures. The information system can be subjected to threats such as cyber-attacks or hardware malfunctioning resulting in a data integrity compromise which implies that the system will consequently not operate correctly. Anomaly detection methods that are relying on centralized data aggregation are problematic to the issues of data privacy and scalability resulting from such approaches. In this paper, we present a completely distinct approach that is based on federated learning that is employed in anomaly detectio... More >

Knowledge reasoning is a critical task in information fusion systems, and its core step is reasoning missing information from existing facts to improve the knowledge graphs. Embedding-based reasoning methods and path-based reasoning methods are two mainstream knowledge reasoning methods. Embedding-based reasoning methods enable fast and direct reasoning but are limited to simple relationships between entities and exhibit poor performance in reasoning complex logical relationships. Path-based reasoning methods perform better in complex reasoning tasks, but suffer from high computational complexity, a large number of model parameters, and low reasoning efficiency. To address the aforementioned... More >

Due to the poor imaging quality of remote sensing images and the small size of targets, remote sensing small target detection has become a current research difficulty and hotspot. Recent years have seen many new algorithms. Remote sensing small target detection methods based on image super-resolution reconstruction have attracted many researchers due to their excellent performance. However, these algorithms still have problems such as weak feature extraction capability and insufficient feature fusion. Then, we propose Enhanced Feature based Small Target Detection Network in Remote Sensing Images (EFSOD), which includes a Edge Enhancement Super-Resolution Reconstruction Module (EESRM) and a C...

Detecting personalities in social media content is an important application of personality psychology. Most early studies apply a coherent piece of writing to personality detection, but today, the challenge is to identify dominant personality traits from a series of short, noisy social media posts. To this end, recent studies have attempted to individually encode the deep semantics of posts, often using attention-based methods, and then relate them, or directly assemble them into graph structures. However, due to the inherently disjointed and noisy nature of social media content, constructing meaningful connections remains challenging. While such methods rely on well-defined relationships be... More >

To address the performance degradation of traditional data association algorithms caused by unknown target motion models, environmental interference, and strong maneuvering behaviors in complex dynamic scenarios, this paper proposes an innovative fusion algorithm that integrates reinforcement learning and deep learning. By constructing a policy network that combines Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) memory units and reinforcement learning dynamic decision-making, a dynamic prediction model for "measurement-target" association probability is established. Additionally, a hybrid predictor incorporating Bayesian networks and multi-order curve fitting is designed to formulate the reward function. To... More >
