Improved method for local image feature region description by Ren-huan ZHU, Qing-wei GAO, Yi-xiang LU, Dong SUN

“…A robust method for local image feature region description was proposed based on the problem of contradiction between performance and dimension of descriptor.First，the local feature region was divided into several subregions according to their intensity order.Then，the method of segmented local feature description based on threshold was used to compute the descriptor，and the method of the weighted texture spectrum was used to cumulate the local descriptor.At last，concatenate the descriptors of every subregion together to get the final descriptor of the interest region.This method combined overall information and local information together，and robust to noise when ensure the dimension of descriptor was small.The experimental results show that the proposed descriptor is not only invariant to monotonic intensity changes and image rotation but also robust to many other geometric and photometric transformations.…”

Joint intelligent optimization of task offloading and service caching for vehicular edge computing by Lei LIU, Chen CHEN, Jie FENG, Qingqi PEI, Ci HE, Zhibin DOU

“…Given the contradiction between limited network resources and massive user demands in Internet of vehicles, an intelligent vehicular edge computing network architecture was proposed to achieve the comprehensive cooperation and intelligent management of network resources.Based on this architecture, a joint optimization scheme of task offloading and service caching was furtherly devised, which formulated an optimization problem about how to offload tasks and allocate computation and cache resources.In view of the dynamics, randomness and time variation of vehicular networks, an asynchronous distributed reinforcement learning algorithm was employed to obtain the optimal task offloading and resource management policy.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves significant performance improvement in comparison with the other schemes.…”

Energy-saving scheme supporting ONU modularization with independent-discontinuous transceiving by Yu XIONG, Jian-jun GUAN, Ru-yan WANG

“…To effectively solve the contradiction between energy-saving and packet delay performance in green passive optical network,an energy-saving scheme supporting ONU modularization with independent-discontinuous transceiving is proposed.Utilizing the technology of optical network unit modularization,each module could switch to sleep or awake mode independently and transmit data in specified time slots discontinuously.Simultaneously,to enhance the quality of service of the overall network,the real-time packets are transmitted in the first sub-cycle based on the sub-cycle division strategy.Furthermore,an independent bandwidth allocation algorithm is proposed,which makes the scheme have more advantages in the asymmetric network traffic scenarios.Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme further reduce the network energy consumption on the premise of guarantee the packet delay.…”

Moving anchor node localization algorithm based on network connectivity by Ying LIU, Zhi-hong QIAN

“…In order to better solve the contradiction between precision of localization and the number of anchor nodes in wireless sensor network,a mobile anchor node localization technology based on connectivity was proposed.First,the coverage characteristic of the network nodes was analyzed,and a critical value was found between the mobile step and the anchor node communication radius,mobile anchor nodes＇ coverage characteristic would change when near this critical value.Second,a mobile anchor node followed a planning path to form a positioning area seamless coverage was used.Finally,when there was no need for high-precision technology,node position would been estimated according with the connectivity of the network and the receiving information of the node.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can realize coarse-grained localization,and paths perform complete localization.…”
