Human Re-identification with Global and Local Siamese Convolution Neural Network

10.12928/telkomnika.v15i2.6121
K.; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia B. Low , U.; Universiti Teknologi Malaysia U. Sheikh
Human re-identification is an important task in surveillance system to determine whether the same human re-appears in multiple cameras with disjoint views. Mostly, appearance based approaches are used to perform human re-identification task because they are less constrained than biometric based approaches. Most of the research works apply hand-crafted feature extractors and then simple matching methods are used. However, designing a robust and stable feature requires expert knowledge and takes time to tune the features. In this paper, we propose a global and local structure of Siamese Convolution Neural Network which automatically extracts features from input images to perform human re-identification task. Besides, most of the current human re-identification task in single-shot approaches do not consider occlusion issue due to lack of tracking information. Therefore, we apply a decision fusion technique to combine global and local features for occlusion cases in single-shot approaches.

The propositionalμ-calculus can be divided into two categories, global model checking algorithm and local model checking algorithm. Both of them aim at reducing time complexity and space complexity effectively. This paper analyzes the computing process of alternating fixpoint nested in detail and designs an efficient local model checking algorithm based on the propositional μ-calculus by a group of partial ordered relation, and its time complexity is O(d2(dn)d/2+2) (d is the depth of fixpoint nesting,  is the maximum of number of nodes), space complexity is O(d(dn)d/2). As far as we know, up till now, the best local model checking algorithm whose index of time complexity is d. In this paper, the index for time complexity of this algorithm is reduced from d to d/2. It is more efficient than algorithms of previous research.

 The growth of computer systems and electronic communications and transactions has meant that the need for effective security and reliability of data communication, processing and storage is more important than ever. In this context, cryptography is a high priority research area in engineering. The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a symmetric-key criptographic algorithm for protecting sensitive information and is one of the most widely secure and used algorithm today. High-throughput, low power and compactness have always been topic of interest for implementing this type of algorithm. In this paper, we are interested on the development of high throughput architecture and implementation of AES algorithm, using the least amount of hardware possible. We have adopted a pipeline approach in order to reduce the critical path and achieve competitive performances in terms of throughput and efficiency. This approach is effectively tested on the AES S-Box substitution. The latter is a complex transformation and the key point to improve architecture performances. Considering the high delay and hardware required for this transformation, we proposed 7-stage pipelined S-box by using composite field in order to deal with the critical path and the occupied area resources. In addition, efficient AES key expansion architecture suitable for our proposed pipelined AES is presented. The implementation had been successfully done on Virtex-5 XC5VLX85 and Virtex-6 XC6VLX75T Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices using Xilinx ISE v14.7. Our AES design achieved a data encryption rate of 108.69 Gbps and used only 6361 slices ressource. Compared to the best previous work, this implementation improves data throughput by 5.6% and reduces the used slices to 77.69%.

This paper described the new system of biosensing using CMOS chip. The system was expected to be used in various circumstances because it was suitable for miniaturization compared to the conventional system. To conduct electrochemical measurements, the new system used paper fluidic channel set on the CMOS chip to transport solution to the on-chip electrodes. The materials of paper fluidic channel were only paper and silicone resin, and these were biocompatible. In experiment, we carried out simultaneous detection of glucose and ethanol in liquid sample solutions on the 5mm square CMOS chip and paper fluidic channel. Furthermore, this system can detect various target molecules in addition to glucose and ethanol, and increase number of simultaneous measurement by adding some more process to the paper and CMOS chip.

Srikanth; Gayatri Vidya Parishad College of Engineering Kavirayani , Nagesh Kumar; GITAM University Gundavarapu
Flower pollination is a single objective optimization technique which as a unconstrained optimization method is applied for the stabilization of the rotary inverted pendulum system. It was observed that the flower pollination method gave better sensitivity in control of the pendulum about its upright unstable equilibrium position with less time and definitely indicated that the method is an energy efficient method when compared with other methods like direct pole placement.  This method yielded results under the influence of time delay and have proven that the influence of time delay is significantly felt and would cause loss of energy, however the presence of flower pollination for optimization minimizes the loss incurred due to time delay and makes the system significant in terms of sensitivity.

The main challenges to achieving a reliable model which can predict well the process are the nonlinearities associated with many biological and biochemical processes in the system. Artificial intelligent approaches revolved as better alternative in predicting the system. Typical measured variables for effluent quality of wastewater treatment plant are pH, and mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS). This paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and feed-forward neural network (FFNN) modeling applied to the domestic plant of the Bunus regional sewage treatment plant. ANFIS and feed- forward neural network techniques as nonlinear function approximators have demonstrated the capability of predicting nonlinear behaviour of the system. The data for the period of two years and nine months sampled weekly (140 week samples) were collected and used for this study. Simulation studies showed that the prediction capability of the ANFIS model is somehow better than that of the FFNN model. The ANFIS model may serves as a valuable prediction tool for the plant.

This paper presents an accurate classification method of harmonic signal in power distribution system by using S-transform (ST).  ST has a capability of representing signals in jointly time-frequency domain and known as time frequency representation (TFR). The spectral parameters are estimated from TFR in order to identify the characteristics and to classify the harmonic signals. The classification of harmonic signals with the utilization of pattern recognition approach which is rule-based classifier of 100 unique signals is according to the IEEE standard 519:2014. The accuracy of the proposed method is determined by using MAPE and the results proved that the method provides high accuracy of harmonic signal classification. Additionally, S-transform also gives 100 percent correct classification of harmonic signals. It is proven that the proposed method is accurate in detecting and classifying harmonic signals in the distribution system.

Mobile Peer-to-Peer (MP2P) network is a promising avenue for large-scale deployment of Video-on-Demand (VoD) applications over mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). In P2P VoD systems, fast search for resources is key determinants for improving the Quality of Service (QoS) due to the low delay of seeking resources caused by streaming interactivity. In this paper, we propose a novel Clustering Tree-based Video Lookup strategy for supporting VCR-like operations in MANETs (CTVL) CTVL selects the chunks with the high popularity as "overlay router" chunks to build the "virtual connection" with other chunks in terms of the popularities and external connection of video chunks. CTVL designs a new clustering strategy to group nodes in P2P networks and a maintenance mechanism of cluster structure, which achieves the high system scalability and fast resource search performance. Thorough simulation results also show how CTVL achieves higher average lookup success rate, lower maintenance cost, lower average end-to-end delay and lower packet loss ratio (PLR) in comparison with other state of the art solutions.

The AC total interference of faulted power lines to gas pipelines sharing the same right of way, which may pose a threat to operating personnel and equipment, was studied. The main advantage of this work is to determine the effects of different soil structures on the induced voltage for various soil resistivities. Two main approaches were used to compute the induced voltages, namely the method of moment (MOM), which is based on electromagnetic field theory, and the circuit based method, which uses the circuit grounding analysis to compute the conductive interference and the circuit based models to compute the inductive interference. A 10-km-long parallel pipeline-transmission line model was developed. The soil resistivity was varied, and the induced voltages obtained from both approaches were compared. Soil resistivity and soil structure are important parameters that affect the AC interference level. The results of the study show that the earth potentials and the metal GPRS are independent. Higher soil resistivity causes the tower ground resistance to increase, thus making the shield wire’s attractiveness as a fault current return path to increase, which in turn forces the induced net EMF and the cumulative GPR in the pipeline to reduce.

This paper is under in-depth investigation due to suspicion of possible plagiarism on a high similarity indexSteer-by-wire (SBW) system in electric vehicle replaces the mechanical connection between steering wheel and front wheels with cable in the traditional steering system, which overcomes the limitations of the traditional steering system for the drivers. It is a hot research topic in the field of new energy vehicles in the future. The proposed new structure of SBW in electric vehicle is introduced; its integrated control strategy consists of three modules. A coordinated control determines the body forces/moment required to achieve electric vehicle motion objectives. The body forces/moment are allocated to braking and steering subsystems based on phase plane notion. The coordination of these actuators is achieved through the controller of the feedback gains with respect to electric vehicle speed. The gain scheduled steering controller provides the desired yaw rate damping while keeping the yaw-lateral motion decoupled. The simulation test results show the effectiveness of the proposed architecture and steering control system when the SBW in electric vehicle is subject to critical driving situations. Our work provided a reference for further research of SBW system.

The demand for health technology is increasing especially in the telemetry applications. These applications generally use implanted antennas to be utilized for data transfer from patients to other reader devices. This procedure can make the health care more efficient since it provides fast diagnosis and treatment to the patient. Therefore, in order to effectively implement an implanted antenna inside the human body, thorough numerical analysis and simulations are required prior to the fabrication of antenna. In this work, an implanted antenna has been proposed to be designed at 402.5MHz within the biomedical frequency band of 402- 405MHz. By introducing a compact loop antenna for telemetry applications in a Pacemaker, a number of advantages can be achieved for health care such as efficient data information and quick diagnosis. Moreover, in this work an investigation of compact loop antenna with casing in Pacemaker has been carried out by placing the antenna inside the phantom of human body model.

Speaker identification is one of the most important technology nowadays. Many fields such as bioinformatics and security are using speaker identification. Also, almost all electronic devices are using this technology too. Based on number of text, speaker identification divided into text dependent and text independent. On many fields, text independent is mostly used because number of text is unlimited. So, text independent is generally more challenging than text dependent. In this research, speaker identification text independent with Indonesian speaker data was modelled with Vector Quantization (VQ). In this research VQ with K-Means initialization was used. K-Means clustering also was used to initialize mean and Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering was used to identify K value for VQ. The best VQ accuracy was 59.67% when k was 5. According to the result, Indonesian language could be modelled by VQ. This research can be developed using optimization method for VQ parameters such as Genetic Algorithm or Particle Swarm Optimization.
