Texture-preserving and information loss minimization method for infrared and visible image fusion by Qiyuan He, Yongdong Huang

“…TPFusion consists of the following key components: a multi-scale feature extraction module for enhancing the capability of capturing features; a texture enhancement module and contrast enhancement module, which helps to preserve fine-grained textures and extract salient contours and contrast information; a dual-attention fusion module for fusing the features extracted from the source images; an information content based loss function minimizing the feature discrepancy between the fused images and the source images and effectively reducing the information loss. …”

Peculiarities of Modeling a Specialized Computing System by G. A. Zvonareva, D. S. Buzunov

“…During the construction of the simulation model of the system a specialized data acquisition device as source of requests; a switch for which a request queue with different priorities is simulated; a data processing device, which is the final recipient of the data were selected as simulation functional nodes.The types of algorithms used to solve the request prioritization problem are taken from common prioritization algorithms typical for the Quality of Service (QoS), used in modern switching equipment. …”
