Bare-hand alphabets gesture recognition based on VCM and ROI segmentation by ZHOU Hang, RUAN Qiu-qi

“…A bare-hand gesture location and tracking system with single camera in real-time was introduced.By employing improved difference method,restrictions of hand are used to location region of Interesting（ROI）.Then on the basis of relatively satisfied segment result the thesis analyzed and extracted the hand features combined with the improved vector coherence mapping（VCM） whose constraint was enhanced to overcome the illegibility for robust results.Furthermore,a time-correlation forecasting model proved the demand of real-time and the consistency of the results now and before.The experiment results show the system has a high recognition rate up to 99% in different illuminations and backgrounds and has more efficient performance compared with existing other systems.…”

CHA: cross-chain based hierarchical architecture for practicable blockchain regulatory by Pujie JING, Liangmin WANG, Xuewen DONG, Yushu ZHANG, Qian WANG, Sohail Muhammad

“…Researching the problems with blockchain regulation is crucial.In view of this, CHA (cross-chain based hierarchical architecture) was proposed to address the problems in blockchain regulatory, and a “chain of custody-business chain” cross-chain collaboration chain-based regulatory model was designed.The decentralized of information system regulatory was improved by building a decentralized governance chain, which realized regulatory by separating the strategy layer from the regulatory layer and the business layer, and achieved separation of regulatory behavior and regulatory technology, thus ensuring the versatility of the blockchain regulatory structure.Finally, the distributed feasibility of the regulatory framework is demonstrated through a formal analysis method, and then the technical feasibility of the scheme in terms of cross-chain regulatory reliability, general feasibility and scalability applicable to different regulatory services are proved.…”

Multivalued Impulsive SDEs Driven by G-Brownian Noise: Periodic Averaging Result by Mahmoud Abouagwa, Anas D. Khalaf, Nadia Gul, Sultan Alyobi, Al-Sharef Mohamed

“…This paper aims to study two approximation theorems in view of the periodic averaging results for non-Lipschitz multivalued stochastic differential equations with impulses and G-Brownian motion (MISDEGs). By adopting G-Itô’s formula and non-Lipschitz condition, the solutions to the simplified MSDEGs without impulses may replace those of the initial MISDEGs in view of approximation in L2-sense and capacity. …”
