Array Design for Angle of Arrival Estimation Using the Worst-Case Two-Target Cramér-Rao Bound by Costas A. Kokke, Mario Coutino, Richard Heusdens, Geert Leus

“…We illustrate the proposed method through numerical examples, comparing it to solutions obtained by minimizing the single-target Cramér-Rao bound, minimizing the Cramér-Rao bound for known target angles, the concentric rectangular array and the boundary array. We show that our method selects a combination of edge and center elements, which contrasts with solutions obtained by minimizing the single-target Cramér-Rao bound. …”

Omni directional video coding rate distortion optimization method based on weighted-to-spherically-uniform structural similarity by Yufeng ZHOU, Mei YU, Baozhen DU, Yang SONG, Gangyi JIANG

“…Aiming at the shortcomings of the coding rate distortion model in traditional video coding,considering the characteristics of equal rectangular omnidirectional video,a method of omnidirectional video coding rate distortion optimization based on spherical weighted structural similarity (WS-SSIM) was proposed.By considering the distortion of the internal structural similarity of the projection plane and the relationship between the spherical distortion and the projection plane distortion,the “spherical weighted structural similarity” was proposed to describe the degree of distortion of the planar omnidirectional image local block relative to the viewing sphere,which was applied to the rate-distortion optimization process of omnidirectional video coding and adaptive selection of quantization parameters to improve vision-based coding efficiency.The experimental results show that compared with the HEVC video coding standard HM16.9 test platform,the proposed method can save an average of 24.48% code rate under the same visual quality,which indicates that the method has significant performance for improving the omnidirectional video coding rate distortion performance.…”

Light weight rotating object detector based on angle sensitive spatial attention mechanism by Kaishi YIN, Meng YANG, Xi GU, Zhicheng WANG

“…With the rapid development of deep learning, more and more target detection algorithms based on anchor frame are applied to remote sensing images in recent years.However, the cost of improving the accuracy of the algorithm is to sacrifice the detection speed.Therefore, the target detection network framework of anchor free was chosen, and a remote sensing detection algorithm of rotating frame was proposed according to the characteristics of remote sensing scene.A simple and effective representation of rotating frame was proposed according to the spatial position relationship between rotating frame and its external rectangular frame.In addition, an angle sensitive attention mechanism was designed to assist the detection of rotating targets.By introducing angle information, the detection ability of the model for rotating targets was improved.The proposed algorithm was tested on the open remote sensing dataset DOTA.The mean average precision of target detection network of rotating frame is 68.5% and the detection speed is 17.4 frames per second.…”
