Polariser l'écart : la mise en scène du décalage dans Fram de Tony Harrison by Catherine Lanone

“…Best known as a poet, Tony Harrison is also a translator and playwright; his 2008 play Fram was badly received by critics, perhaps because it plays on key structural discrepancy, embedding as it does the story of Nansen, the polar explorer (with the eponymous boat he designed, Fram) within the frame of a play written by the ghost of the late academic Gilbert Murray. …”

Feature enhancement and bilinear feature vector fusion for text detection of mobile industrial containers by Haiyang HU, Zepin LI, Zhongjin LI

“…In the real factory environment, due to factors such as dim light, irregular text, and limited equipment, text detection becomes a challenging task.Aiming at this problem, a feature vector fusion module based on bilinear operation was designed and combined with feature enhancement and semi-convolution to form a lightweight text detection network RGFFD (ResNet18 + Ghost Module + FPEM(feature pyramid enhancement module)) + FFM(feature fusion module) + DB (differentiable binarization)).Among them, the Ghost module was embedded with a feature enhancement module to improve the feature extraction capability, the bilinear feature vector fusion module fused multi-scale information, and an adaptive threshold segmentation algorithm was added to improve the segmentation capability of the DB module.In the real industrial environment, the RGFFD detection speed reached 6.5 f/s, when using the embedded device UP2 board for text detection of container numbers.At the same time, the detection speed on the public datasets ICDAR2015 and Total-text reached 39.6 f/s and 49.6 f/s, respectively.The accuracy rate on the custom dataset reached 88.9%, and the detection speed was 30.7 f/s.…”

Research on efficient cross trust-domain group authentication with conditional privacy of vehicle platoon under blockchian architecture by Yingjie XIA, Siyu ZHU, Xuejiao LIU

“…In order to balance the security and efficiency of vehicle platoon cross trust-domain identity authentication, an efficient cross trust-domain group authentication scheme with conditional privacy of vehicle platoon under blockchian architecture was proposed.A novel block structure BM-Tree was designed for vehicle platoon identity authentication, which provided support for efficient cross trust-domain group authentication by sharing the group authentication parame-ters on the blockchain.Dynamic pseudonym was used for vehicle identity privacy-preserving and bilinear mapping was used to transform the trust-domain parameters, which realized cross trust-domain group authentication with conditional privacy.An efficient group authentication protocol based on BM-Tree was proposed, which realized batch identity au-thentication and re-authentication of vehicle platoon.The proposed scheme has better performance than existing cross trust-domain authentication methods in terms of security and computational overhead.Experimental result shows that the authentication delay is reduced by 29%, 25% and 53% on average, respectively compared with BLA, MDPA and BBA.…”

Cancer molecular subtyping using limited multi-omics data with missingness. by Yongqi Bu, Jiaxuan Liang, Zhen Li, Jianbo Wang, Jun Wang, Guoxian Yu

“…To address the bottleneck of collecting sufficient samples with complete data in clinical applications, we proposed a flexible integrative model (CancerSD) to diagnose cancer subtype using limited samples with incomplete multi-omics data. CancerSD designs contrastive learning tasks and masking-and-reconstruction tasks to reliably impute missing omics, and fuses available omics data with the imputed ones to accurately diagnose cancer subtypes. …”

Weakly-coupled real-time SDM technology for short-reach optical transmission by Yuyang GAO, Juhao LI, Yongqi HE, Zhangyuan CHEN

“…The capacity upgrade of short-reach optical fiber transmission has received more and more attention.Spatial division multiplexing provides two new dimensions of fiber core and mode, which can greatly increase the transmission capacity of a single fiber.However, the crosstalk between spatial channels severely limits the practical application of space division multiplexing technology.To address the problem, a weakly-coupled space-division multiplexing fiber was firstly designed, in which perturbed rings were introduced in the core to increase the effective refractive index difference between LP modes.Secondly, an all-fiber mode multiplexer/demultiplexer that could handle non-circularly symmetric degenerate LP modes was proposed, as well as a low insertion loss and low crosstalk fan-in and fan-out devices.Based on the proposed fiber and devices, the low-cost intensity modulation and direct detection were used to implement the short-reach weakly-coupled mode-division-multiplexing and multi-core and few-mode real-time transmission.Finally, the prospective of space-division multiplexing real-time optical transmission technology was discussed.…”

HEVC perceptual intra-frame rate control inspired by video subjective observation experiment by Yanchao GONG, Ling WANG, Ying LIU, Kaifang YANG, Qingfan LIN, Fuping WANG

“…In view of the low perceptual rate-distortion performance of the rate control method used in high efficiency video coding (HEVC), an intra-frame rate control algorithm to effectively improve the perceptual rate-distortion performance of video was proposed.First, the spatiotemporal complexity of videos was measured, and the video subjective observation experiment was designed combined with the spatiotemporal complexity.Secondly, based on the experimental results of video subjective observation, combined with the relevant human vision system perception characteristics, the spatiotemporal perceptual sensitivity factors of video content which could effectively measure the perception difference of human eyes for different regions of video were constructed.Finally, the spatiotemporal perceptual sensitivity factors were applied to the target bit allocation of the largest coding unit layer in the intra-frame image, then the perceptual intra-frame rate control was realized.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the rate control algorithm adopted by HEVC in terms of the bit estimation accuracy and the perceptual rate-distortion performance.…”
