Triple-attentions based salient object detector for strip steel surface defects by Li Zhang, Xirui Li, Yange Sun, Huaping Guo

“…The idea is from the following observation: given a three-dimensional feature map, we can examine the feature map from the three different yet interrelated two-dimensional planar perspectives: the channel-width, channel-height, and width-height perspectives. Based on the TA, a novel detector, called TADet, for the detection of steel strip surface defects is proposed, which is an encoder-decoder network: the decoder uses the proposed TA refines/fuses the multiscale rough features generated by the encoder (backbone network) from the three distinct perspectives (branches) and then integrates the purified feature maps from the three branches. …”

Analysis of the Strategic Emission-Based Energy Policies of Developing and Developed Economies with Twin Prediction Model by Yulian Jiang, Wuchang Wei, Ramesh Chandra Das, Tonmoy Chatterjee

“…The aim of the present study is to examine sustainability of energy systems through the forecasting of the methane emission and agricultural output of the world’s different income groups up to 2030 using the data for the period 1981–2012. The work is novel in two senses: the existing studies did not use both the Box–Jenkins and artificial neural network methods, and the present study covers all the major economic groups in the world which is unlike to any existing studies. …”

An Approach to Fall Detection Using Statistical Distributions of Thermal Signatures Obtained by a Stand-Alone Low-Resolution IR Array Sensor Device by Nishat Tasnim Newaz, Eisuke Hanada

“…Unlike camera-based systems, which can be privacy-intrusive, IR array sensors offer a non-invasive, reliable approach for fall detection and activity recognition while preserving privacy. This work proposes a novel method to distinguish between normal motion and fall incidents by analyzing thermal patterns captured by infrared array sensors. …”

Breather, lump and other wave profiles for the nonlinear Rosenau equation arising in physical systems by Baboucarr Ceesay, Muhammad Zafarullah Baber, Nauman Ahmed, Muhammad Waqas Yasin, Wael W. Mohammed

“…With the aid of this software, we potray the dynamics of these waves in 3Ds, contours and densities plots, which enables us to comprehend how waves move and take on various forms. The novel component is the application of Hirota’s bilinear approach to generate new form of solutions as highlighted above, analyse their interactions, and give better visualisations, which goes beyond prior soliton-focused investigations of the Rosenau problem. …”
