Background reference frame generation method for surveillance video based on image block codebook model by Wei ZHANG, Yu WANG, Xinyi CHEN, Yanwen WANG, Qingyang JING, Weimin LEI

“…To solve the problems that the background reference frames are seriously contaminated by the foreground, and the bit rate increases suddenly incurred by the one-time transmission of the background frames, a progressive background frame generation method with image block as the basic unit was proposed for surveillance video application.An image block codebook model based on clustering was formulated.The image blocks at the same position in the video sequence were effectively clustered by using perceptual hash-based element matching.The background symbol was accurately detected by using the characteristics of the background image area.A complete background frame was produced by extracting the background blocks in different frames based on the codebook model.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves 17.89% coding efficiency for luma component compared with standard HM16.20, and can effectively improve the quality of the produced background reference frame.Besides, the proposed method complexity meets the real-time requirements of video applications.…”

Blind SNR estimation for OFDM signals in cognitive radio by Ming-qian LIU, Bing-bing LI, Ning-jie TANG, Zhao LI

“…The traditional blind SNR estimation algorithms had problems of poor performance and high computation complexity for OFDM systems in cognitive radio with low signal to noise ratio(SNR)and multi-path channel conditions,in view of which a novel blind SNR estimation method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM)signals was proposed.Firstly,the channel order was roughly estimated by utilizing the characteristics of autocorrelation function to determine the data interval which was free of inter-symbol interference(ISI).Secondly,the signal average power was estimated by computing the autocorrelation values of data in the determined interval.Finally,the noise average power was estimated by utilizing the characteristics that the data in cyclic prefix which was replication of part useful data.So the SNR of the received signals could be estimated.The simulation results show that the proposed method doesn’t need any prior information and has better performance and lower computation complexity,which is more suitable for OFDM systems in cognitive radio.…”

PCA-based membership inference attack for machine learning models by Changgen PENG, Ting GAO, Huilan LIU, Hongfa DING

“…Aiming at the problem of restricted access failure in current black box membership inference attacks, a PCA-based membership inference attack was proposed.Firstly, in order to solve the restricted access problem of black box membership inference attacks, a fast decision membership inference attack named fast-attack was proposed.Based on the perturbation samples obtained by the distance symbol gradient, the perturbation difficulty was mapped to the distance category for membership inference.Secondly, in view of the low mobility problem of fast-attack, a PCA-based membership inference attack was proposed.Combining the algorithmic ideas based on the perturbation category in the fast-attack and the PCA technology to suppress the low-migration behavior caused by excessive reliance on the model.Finally, experiments show that fast-attack reduces the access cost while ensuring the accuracy of the attack.PCA-based attack is superior to the baseline attack under the unsupervised setting, and the migration rate of model is increased by 10% compared to fast-attack.…”
