    Abstract: As a component of the traffic control plan, traffic signs on highways offer drivers necessary information. Unfortunately, many signs are unfamiliar to or misunderstood by drivers, especially when lacking a setting method; this includes exit advance guide signs in tunnels. These are generally set in roadbed sections, but space limitations in tunnels dictate that they must be set differently. To evaluate the effect of the setting method, an experiment was designed and conducted, during which the eye movements of 44 drivers with different familiarity levels were tracked. Twenty-two of the drivers had not previously participated in any experiment involving exit advance guide signs in highway tunnels, while 22 of them had. Time period data were analyzed, including data from before the sign appeared, when it appeared, and when it disappeared. Based on area division and Markov theory, attributes related to gaze transition were obtained, including one- and two-step gaze transition probabilities and area gaze probabilities. The results showed that gaze transition was confirmed to be significantly different between the three periods and between the drivers. Features extracted from eye movement characteristics, gaze transition paths, and gaze areas demonstrated that visual attention is more dispersed in familiar drivers during the lane-change intention period. Therefore, signs should be placed on the left wall of the highway tunnel.

    Abstract: Benefiting from the development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the types and number of datasets available for image synthesis have greatly increased. Based on such abundant datasets, many types of virtual scenes can be created and visualized using image synthesis technology before they are implemented in the real world, which can then be used in different applications. To achieve a convenient and fast image synthesis model, there are some common issues such as the blurred semantic information in the normalized layer and the local spatial information of the feature map used only in the generation of images. To solve such problems, an improved image synthesis model, SYGAN, is proposed in this paper, which imports a spatial adaptive normalization module (SPADE) and a sparse attention mechanism YLG on the basis of generative adversarial network (GAN). In the proposed model SYGAN, the utilization of the normalization module SPADE can improve the imaging quality by adjusting the normalization layer with spatially adaptively learned transformations, while the sparsified attention mechanism YLG improves the receptive field of the model and has less computational complexity which saves training time. The experimental results show that the Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) of SYGAN for natural scenes and street scenes are 22.1, 31.2; the Mean Intersection over Union (MIoU) for them are 56.6, 51.4; and the Pixel Accuracy (PA) for them are 86.1, 81.3, respectively. Compared with other models such as CRN, SIMS, pix2pixHD and GauGAN, the proposed image synthesis model SYGAN has better performance and improves computational efficiency.

    Abstract: Anomaly detection has an important impact on the development of unmanned aerial vehicles, and effective anomaly detection is fundamental to their utilization. Traditional anomaly detection discriminates anomalies for single-dimensional factors of sensing data, which often performs poorly in multidimensional data scenarios due to weak computational scalability and the problem of dimensional catastrophe, ignoring potential correlations between sensing data and some important information of certain characteristics. In order to capture the correlation of multidimensional sensing data and improve the accuracy of anomaly detection effectively, GTAF, an anomaly detection model for multivariate sequences based on an improved graph neural network with a transformer, a graph attention mechanism and a multi-channel fusion mechanism, is proposed in this paper. First, we added a multi-channel transformer structure for intrinsic pattern extraction of different data. Then, we combined the multi-channel transformer structure with GDN’s original graph attention network (GAT) to attain better capture of features of time series, better learning of dependencies between time series and hence prediction of future values of adjacent time series. Finally, we added a multi-channel data fusion module, which utilizes channel attention to integrate global information and upgrade anomaly detection accuracy. The results of experiments show that the average accuracies of GTAF, the anomaly detection model proposed in this paper, are 92.83% and 96.59% on two datasets from unmanned systems, respectively, which has higher accuracy and computational efficiency compared with other methods.

    Abstract: To evaluate the chloride ion corrosion resistance of proposed innovative self-healing concrete based on shape memory alloys (SMA) and engineering cementitious composites (ECC), a total of 2 kinds of 22 specimens were prepared. Chloride ion corrosion tests of self-healing SMA-ECC concrete under dry-wet cycles were carried out. It was found that the chloride ion erosion depths of SMA-ECC were significantly smaller than that of MC, and the growth rate of erosion depth of SMA-ECC was obviously smaller than that of MC after 15 dry-wet (dry and wet) corrosion cycles. The chloride ion content of SMA-ECC vanished at the erosion depth more than 10 mm, which was consistent with the test result of AgNO3 solution color-rendering test. Test results indicate that, compared to marine concrete (MC), SMA-ECC has a better chloride ion corrosion resistance behavior. Moreover, the chloride ion concentration of SMA-ECC at a chloride ion erosion depth of less than 10 mm decreased more significantly than that of MC, indicating that almost all chloride salt solution reacted in the outer layer of SMA-ECC, which is consistent with the conclusions of 4.1 and 4.2. Finally, based on the erosion distribution of chloride ions and Fick’s second law, a calculation model describing the relationship between the apparent chloride ion diffusion coefficient and the boundary condition of the chloride ion content was proposed.

    Abstract: Birds play a vital role in maintaining biodiversity. Accurate identification of bird species is essential for conducting biodiversity surveys. However, fine-grained image recognition of birds encounters challenges due to large within-class differences and small inter-class differences. To solve this problem, our study took a part-based approach, dividing the identification task into two parts: part detection and identification classification. We proposed an improved bird part detection algorithm based on YOLOv5, which can handle partial overlap and complex environmental conditions between part objects. The backbone network incorporates the Res2Net-CBAM module to enhance the receptive fields of each network layer, strengthen the channel characteristics, and improve the sensitivity of the model to important information. Additionally, in order to boost data on features extraction and channel self-regulation, we have integrated CBAM attention mechanisms into the neck. The success rate of our suggested model, according to experimental findings, is 86.6%, 1.2% greater than the accuracy of the original model. Furthermore, when compared with other algorithms, our model’s accuracy shows noticeable improvement. These results show how useful the method we suggested is for quickly and precisely recognizing different bird species.

    Abstract: Semantic segmentation of standing trees is important to obtain factors of standing trees from images automatically and effectively. Aiming at the accurate segmentation of multiple standing trees in complex backgrounds, some traditional methods have shortcomings such as low segmentation accuracy and manual intervention. To achieve accurate segmentation of standing tree images effectively, SEMD, a lightweight network segmentation model based on deep learning, is proposed in this article. DeepLabV3+ is chosen as the base framework to perform multi-scale fusion of the convolutional features of the standing trees in images, so as to reduce the loss of image edge details during the standing tree segmentation and reduce the loss of feature information. MobileNet, a lightweight network, is integrated into the backbone network to reduce the computational complexity. Furthermore, SENet, an attention mechanism, is added to obtain the feature information efficiently and suppress the generation of useless feature information. The extensive experimental results show that using the SEMD model the MIoU of the semantic segmentation of standing tree images of different varieties and categories under simple and complex backgrounds reaches 91.78% and 86.90%, respectively. The lightweight network segmentation model SEMD based on deep learning proposed in this paper can solve the problem of multiple standing trees segmentation with high accuracy.

    Abstract: This paper discusses a sweetgum leaf-spot image segmentation method based on an improved DeeplabV3+ network to address the low accuracy in plant leaf spot segmentation, problems with the recognition model, insufficient datasets, and slow training speeds. We replaced the backbone feature extraction network of the model’s encoder with the MobileNetV2 network, which greatly reduced the amount of calculation being performed in the model and improved its calculation speed. Then, the attention mechanism module was introduced into the backbone feature extraction network and the decoder, which further optimized the model’s edge recognition effect and improved the model’s segmentation accuracy. Given the category imbalance in the sweetgum leaf spot dataset (SLSD), a weighted loss function was introduced and assigned to two different types of weights, for spots and the background, respectively, to improve the segmentation of disease spot regions in the model. Finally, we graded the degree of the lesions. The experimental results show that the PA, mRecall, and mIou algorithms of the improved model were 94.5%, 85.4%, and 81.3%, respectively, which are superior to the traditional DeeplabV3+, Unet, Segnet models and other commonly used plant disease semantic segmentation methods. The model shows excellent performance for different degrees of speckle segmentation, demonstrating that this method can effectively improve the model’s segmentation performance for sweetgum leaf spots.

    Abstract: Leaf spot disease and brown spot disease are common diseases affecting maple leaves. Accurate and efficient detection of these diseases is crucial for maintaining the photosynthetic efficiency and growth quality of maple leaves. However, existing segmentation methods for plant diseases often fail to accurately and rapidly detect disease areas on plant leaves. This paper presents a novel solution to accurately and efficiently detect common diseases in maple leaves. We propose a deep learning approach based on an enhanced version of DeepLabV3+ specifically designed for detecting common diseases in maple leaves. To construct the maple leaf spot dataset, we employed image annotation and data enhancement techniques. Our method incorporates the CBAM-FF module to fuse gradual features and deep features, enhancing the detection performance. Furthermore, we leverage the SANet attention mechanism to improve the feature extraction capabilities of the MobileNetV2 backbone network for spot features. The utilization of the focal loss function further enhances the detection accuracy of the affected areas. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our improved algorithm, achieving a mean intersection over union (MIoU) of 90.23% and a mean pixel accuracy (MPA) of 94.75%. Notably, our method outperforms traditional semantic segmentation methods commonly used for plant diseases, such as DeeplabV3+, Unet, Segnet, and others. The proposed approach significantly enhances the segmentation performance for detecting diseased spots on Liquidambar formosana leaves. Additionally, based on pixel statistics, the segmented lesion image is graded for accurate detection.
