Mapping New Realities: Ground Truth Image Creation with Pix2Pix Image-to-Image Translation

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have significantly advanced image processing, with Pix2Pix being a notable framework for image-to-image translation. This paper explores a novel application of Pix2Pix to transform abstract map images into realistic ground truth images, addressing the scarcity of such images crucial for domains like urban planning and autonomous vehicle training. We detail the Pix2Pix model's utilization for generating high-fidelity datasets, supported by a dataset of paired map and aerial images, and enhanced by a tailored training regimen. The results demonstrate the model's capability to accurately render complex urban features, establishing its efficacy and potential for broad real-world applications.

Feature Manipulation for DDPM based Change Detection

Change Detection is a classic task of computer vision that receives a bi-temporal image pair as input and separates the semantically changed and unchanged regions of it. The diffusion model is used in image synthesis and as a feature extractor and has been applied to various downstream tasks. Using this, a feature map is extracted from the pre-trained diffusion model from the large-scale data set, and changes are detected through the additional network. On the one hand, the current diffusion-based change detection approach focuses only on extracting a good feature map using the diffusion model. It obtains and uses differences without further adjustment to the created feature map. Our method focuses on manipulating the feature map extracted from the Diffusion Model to be more semantically useful, and for this, we propose two methods: Feature Attention and FDAF. Our model with Feature Attention achieved a state-of-the-art F1 score (90.18) and IoU (83.86) on the LEVIR-CD dataset.

This study conducts a thorough examination of malware detection using machine learning techniques, focusing on the evaluation of various classification models using the Mal-API-2019 dataset. The aim is to advance cybersecurity capabilities by identifying and mitigating threats more effectively. Both ensemble and non-ensemble machine learning methods, such as Random Forest, XGBoost, K Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Neural Networks, are explored. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of data pre-processing techniques, particularly TF-IDF representation and Principal Component Analysis, in improving model performance. Results indicate that ensemble methods, particularly Random Forest and XGBoost, exhibit superior accuracy, precision, and recall compared to others, highlighting their effectiveness in malware detection. The paper also discusses limitations and potential future directions, emphasizing the need for continuous adaptation to address the evolving nature of malware. This research contributes to ongoing discussions in cybersecurity and provides practical insights for developing more robust malware detection systems in the digital era.

Open-World Object Detection via Discriminative Class Prototype Learning

Open-world object detection (OWOD) is a challenging problem that combines object detection with incremental learning and open-set learning. Compared to standard object detection, the OWOD setting is task to: 1) detect objects seen during training while identifying unseen classes, and 2) incrementally learn the knowledge of the identified unknown objects when the corresponding annotations is available. We propose a novel and efficient OWOD solution from a prototype perspective, which we call OCPL: Open-world object detection via discriminative Class Prototype Learning, which consists of a Proposal Embedding Aggregator (PEA), an Embedding Space Compressor (ESC) and a Cosine Similarity-based Classifier (CSC). All our proposed modules aim to learn the discriminative embeddings of known classes in the feature space to minimize the overlapping distributions of known and unknown classes, which is beneficial to differentiate known and unknown classes. Extensive experiments performed on PASCAL VOC and MS-COCO benchmark demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.

Automated Movement Detection with Dirichlet Process Mixture Models and Electromyography

Numerous sleep disorders are characterised by movement during sleep, these include rapid-eye movement sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) and periodic limb movement disorder. The process of diagnosing movement related sleep disorders requires laborious and time-consuming visual analysis of sleep recordings. This process involves sleep clinicians visually inspecting electromyogram (EMG) signals to identify abnormal movements. The distribution of characteristics that represent movement can be diverse and varied, ranging from brief moments of tensing to violent outbursts. This study proposes a framework for automated limb-movement detection by fusing data from two EMG sensors (from the left and right limb) through a Dirichlet process mixture model. Several features are extracted from 10 second mini-epochs, where each mini-epoch has been classified as 'leg-movement' or 'no leg-movement' based on annotations of movement from sleep clinicians. The distributions of the features from each category can be estimated accurately using Gaussian mixture models with the Dirichlet process as a prior. The available dataset includes 36 participants that have all been diagnosed with RBD. The performance of this framework was evaluated by a 10-fold cross validation scheme (participant independent). The study was compared to a random forest model and outperformed it with a mean accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of 94\%, 48\%, and 95\%, respectively. These results demonstrate the ability of this framework to automate the detection of limb movement for the potential application of assisting clinical diagnosis and decision-making.
