Sparse Generation: Making Pseudo Labels Sparse for weakly supervision with points

In recent years, research on point weakly supervised object detection (PWSOD) methods in the field of computer vision has attracted people's attention. However, existing pseudo labels generation methods perform poorly in a small amount of supervised annotation data and dense object detection tasks. We consider the generation of weakly supervised pseudo labels as the result of model's sparse output, and propose a method called Sparse Generation to make pseudo labels sparse. It constructs dense tensors through the relationship between data and detector model, optimizes three of its parameters, and obtains a sparse tensor via coordinated calculation, thereby indirectly obtaining higher quality pseudo labels, and solving the model's density problem in the situation of only a small amount of supervised annotation data can be used. On two broadly used open-source datasets (RSOD, SIMD) and a self-built dataset (Bullet-Hole), the experimental results showed that the proposed method has a significant advantage in terms of overall performance metrics, comparing to that state-of-the-art method.

Single-shot fast 3D imaging through scattering media using structured illumination

Conventional approaches for 3D imaging in or through scattering media are usually limited to 2D reconstruction of objects at some discontinuous locations, although the time-consuming iteration, guide-star, or complex system are implemented. How to quickly visualize dynamic 3D objects behind scattering media is still an open issue. Here, by using structured light illumination, we propose a single-shot technique that can quickly acquire continuous 3D surfaces of objects hidden behind the diffuser. The proposed method can realize the 3D imaging of single, multiple, and dynamic targets from the speckled structured light patterns under broad or narrow band light illumination, in which only once calibration of the imaging setup is needed before conducting the imaging. Our approach paves the way to quickly visualize dynamic objects behind scattering media in 3D and multispectral.

Android Malware Detection Using Autoencoder

Smartphones have become an intrinsic part of human's life. The smartphone unifies diverse advanced characteristics. It enables users to store various data such as photos, health data, credential bank data, and personal information. The Android operating system is the prevalent mobile operating system and, in the meantime, the most targeted operating system by malware developers. Recently the unparalleled development of Android malware put pressure on researchers to propose effective methods to suppress the spread of the malware. In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach for Android malware detection. The proposed approach investigates five different feature sets and applies Autoencoder to identify malware. The experimental results show that the proposed approach can identify malware with high accuracy.
