As one type of power quality (PQ) disturbance sources, high-speed rail (HSR) can have major impacts on the power supply grid. Providing timely and accurate warning information for PQ problems of HSR is important for the safe and stable operation of traction power supply systems and the power supply grid. This study proposes a novel warning approach to identify PQ problems and provide warning prompts based on the monitored data of HSR. To embody the displacement and status change of monitored data, multi-features of different sliding windows are computed. To reflect the relative importance degree of these features in the overall evaluation, an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is used to analyse the weights of multi-features. Finally, a multi-features similarity algorithm is applied to analyse the difference between monitored data and the reference data of HSR, and PQ warning results based on dynamic thresholds can be analysed to quantify its severity. Cases studies demonstrate that the proposed approach is effective and feasible, and it has now been applied to an actual PQ monitoring platform.

It is very often necessary to search for similar parts during designing a new product because its parts are often easily designed by modifying existing similar parts. In this way, the design time and cost can be reduced. Thus it would be nice to have an efficient similarity comparison algorithm that can be used anytime in the design process. There have been many approaches to compare shape similarity between two solids. In this paper, two parts represented in B-Rep is compared in two steps: one for overall appearances and the other for detail features. In the first step, geometric information is used in low level of detail for easy and fast pre-classification by the overall appearance. In the second step, feature information is used to compare the detail shape in high level of detail to find more similar design. To realize the idea above, a multi resolution algorithm is proposed so that a given solid is described by an overall appearance in a low resolution and by detail features in high resolution. Using this multi-resolution representation, parts can be compared based on the overall appearance first so that the number of parts to be compared in high resolution is reduced, and then detail features are investigated to retrieve the most similar part. In this way, computational time can be reduced by the fast classification in the first step while reliability can be preserved by detail comparison in the second step.

항공영상을 이용하여 수치표면자료와 같은 3차원 자료를 자동으로 제작하기 위해서는 영상정합이 반드시 필요하다. 최근 사용되고 있는 항공 디지털 프레임 영상은 과거의 아날로그 영상에 비해 폐색지역이 적은 고중복도 다중 스트립 영상으로 촬영되기에 용이하다. 최근 다중 스트립 영상을 이용한 다중영상정합 기법에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있으며, 특히 각 영상에서 추출된 점(point feature)이나 형상(linear feature)의 유사성 측정 방법에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수직궤적 기반 다중영상정합을 대상으로 영역기반 유사성 측정 방법으로 SNCC(Sum of Normalized Cross-Correlation)와 SSD(Sum of Squared-Difference) 방법을 비교 분석하였다. 또한 영역기반 유사성 측정에 필요한 요소로 영상의 화소값, 화소값 기울기 강도, 화소값과 화소값 기울기 강도 평균을 각각 사용하여 결과를 비교하였다. 이 외에도 영역기반 유사성 측정에서 중요한 요소인 기준 윈도우의 크기를 비정규 적응형 기준 윈도우 방법과 정규 적응형 윈도우 방법을 적용하여 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 실험을 위하여 사용된 항공영상은 ZI Imaging 사의 DMC (Digital Modular Camera)에 의해 종중복도는 80%, 횡중복도는 60%로 촬영되었으며, 3개의 스트립으로 구성되었다. 다양한 방법으로 실험을 수행한 결과에 따르면 유사성 측정 방법으로는 SNCC, 유사성 측정 요소로는 화소값과 화소값 기울기 강도 평균, 그리고 비정규 적응형 기준 윈도우가 수직궤적 기반 다중영상정합의 영역기반 유사성 측정에 가장 적합하다는 것을 확인하였다.

Music summarization refers to a technique which automatically extracts the most important and representative segments in music content. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a technique which provides the repeated part in music content as music summary. For extracting a repeated segment in music content, the proposed algorithm uses the weighted sum of similarity measures based on multi-level vector quantization for fixed-length summary or optimal-length summary. For similarity measures, count-based similarity measure and distance-based similarity measure are proposed. The number of the same codeword and the Mahalanobis distance of features which have same codeword at the same position in segments are used for count-based and distance-based similarity measure, respectively. Fixed-length music summary is evaluated by measuring the overlapping ratio between hand-made repeated parts and automatically generated ones. Optimal-length music summary is evaluated by calculating how much automatically generated music summary includes repeated parts of the music content. From experiments we observed that optimal-length summary could capture the repeated parts in music content more effectively in terms of summary length than fixed-length summary.

Image registration is an essential process to analyze the time series of satellite images for the purpose of image fusion and change detection. The Mutual Information (MI) is commonly used as similarity measure for image registration because of its robustness to noise. Due to the radiometric differences, it is not easy to apply MI to multi-temporal satellite images using directly the pixel intensity. Image features for MI are more abundantly obtained by employing a Gabor filter which varies adaptively with the filter characteristics such as filter size, frequency and orientation for each pixel. In this paper we employed Bidirectional Gabor Filter Energy (BGFE) defined by Gabor filter features and applied the BGFE to similarity measure calculation as an image feature for MI. The experiment results show that the proposed method is more robust than the conventional MI method combined with intensity or gradient magnitude.

To address the problem of multi-target retrieval (MTR) of remote sensing images, this study proposes a new object-level feature representation model. The model provides an enhanced application image representation that improves the efficiency of MTR. Generating the model in our scheme includes processes, such as object-oriented image segmentation, feature parameter calculation, and symbolic image database construction. The proposed model uses the spatial representation method of the extended nine-direction lower-triangular (9DLT) matrix to combine spatial relationships among objects, and organizes the image features according to MPEG-7 standards. A similarity metric method is proposed that improves the precision of similarity retrieval. Our method provides a trade-off strategy that supports flexible matching on the target features, or the spatial relationship between the query target and the image database. We implement this retrieval framework on a dataset of remote sensing images. Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves competitive and high-retrieval precision.

본 논문은 K-means과 비음수 행렬 분해(NMF)를 이용하여 주제기반의 다중문서를 요약하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 제안방법은 비음수 행렬 분해를 이용하여 가중치가 부여된 용어-문장 행렬을 희소(Sparse)한 비음수 의미특징 행렬과 비음수 변수 행렬로 분해함으로써 직관적으로 이해할 수 있는 형태의 의미적 특징을 추출할 수 있고, 주제와 의미특징간의 유사도에 가중치를 부여하여 유사도는 높으나 실제 의미 없는 문장이 추출되는 것을 막는다. 또한 K-means 군집을 이용하여 문장에 포함된 노이즈를 제거함으로써 문서의 의미가 요약에 편향되게 반영하는 것을 피할 수 있고, 추출된 문장에 부여된 순위순서대로 정렬하여 보여 줌으로써 응집성을 높인다. 실험 결과 제안방법이 다른 방법에 비하여 좋은 성능을 보인다.

This paper proposes a novel algorithm for the efficient classification and retrieval of medical images. After color and edge features are extracted from medical images, these two feature vectors are then applied to a multi-class Support Vector Machine, to give membership vectors. Thereafter, the two membership vectors are combined into an ensemble feature vector. Also, to reduce the search time, Correlated Categories Vector is proposed for similarity matching. The experimental results show that the proposed system improves the retrieval performance when compared to other methods.

Plant leaf classification is a significant application of image processing techniques in modern agriculture. In this paper, a multi-granular angle description method is proposed for plant leaf classification and retrieval. The proposed method can describe leaf information from coarse to fine using multi-granular angle features. In the proposed method, each leaf contour is partitioned first with equal arc length under different granularities. And then three kinds of angle features are derived under each granular partition of leaf contour: angle value, angle histogram, and angular ternary pattern. These multi-granular angle features can capture both local and globe information of the leaf contour, and make a comprehensive description. In leaf matching stage, the simple city block metric is used to compute the dissimilarity of each pair of leaf under different granularities. And the matching scores at different granularities are fused based on quotient space theory to obtain the final leaf similarity measurement. Plant leaf classification and retrieval experiments are conducted on two challenging leaf image databases: Swedish leaf database and Flavia leaf database. The experimental results and the comparison with state-of-the-art methods indicate that proposed method has promising classification and retrieval performance.

The Question Similarity Measurement of Chinese Crop Diseases and Insect Pests (QSM-CCD&IP) aims to judge the user's tendency to ask questions regarding input problems. The measurement is the basis of the Agricultural Knowledge Question and Answering (Q & A) system, information retrieval, and other tasks. However, the corpus and measurement methods available in this field have some deficiencies. In addition, error propagation may occur when the word boundary features and local context information are ignored when the general method embeds sentences. Hence, these factors make the task challenging. To solve the above problems and tackle the Question Similarity Measurement task in this work, a corpus on Chinese crop diseases and insect pests(CCDIP), which contains 13 categories, was established. Then, taking the CCDIP as the research object, this study proposes a Chinese agricultural text similarity matching model, namely, the AgrCQS. This model is based on mixed information extraction. Specifically, the hybrid embedding layer can enrich character information and improve the recognition ability of the model on the word boundary. The multi-scale local information can be extracted by multi-core convolutional neural network based on multi-weight (MM-CNN). The self-attention mechanism can enhance the fusion ability of the model on global information. In this research, the performance of the AgrCQS on the CCDIP is verified, and three benchmark datasets, namely, AFQMC, LCQMC, and BQ, are used. The accuracy rates are 93.92%, 74.42%, 86.35%, and 83.05%, respectively, which are higher than that of baseline systems without using any external knowledge. Additionally, the proposed method module can be extracted separately and applied to other models, thus providing reference for related research.
