This is mainly due to the limited visibility of objects and reduced texture and color contrasts among them. To address the issue of reduced texture among objects, we propose a dual closed-loop bipartite matching algorithm to establish a total loss function consisting of unsupervised illumination enhancement loss and supervised intersection-over-union loss, thus enabling the joint minimization of both losses via the Hungarian algorithm. We can thus achieve end-to-end training for a semantic segmentation network especially suitable for handling low-light scenes. By utilizing reference daylight images of similar scenes, we propose a weakly supervised method with selective refinement to improve segmentation accuracy in underperforming categories, thus resulting in a model with superior performance. Experimental results show that the proposed network surpasses existing methods on the Cityscapes dataset and notably outperforms state-of-the-art methods on Dark Zurich and Nighttime Driving datasets. We finally deploy the proposed model on quadruped robots to evaluate its performance in outdoor low-light scenes, where it demonstrates superior segmentation capabilities over existing real-time semantic segmentation networks.</p>","PeriodicalId":13112,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics","volume":"PP ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148619783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most existing information granularities are based on fuzzy c-mean (FCM) or K-means clustering for granularity construction. This kind of convex data structure clustering has difficulty in recognizing some irregular nonconvex data types, and can only be filled irregularly by increasing the cluster classes, which is easy to lose the wholeness and accuracy of the data. The density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN), a classical density-based spatial clustering method, is well-suited for both convex and nonconvex datasets. Building on the versatility of DBSCAN, a new density-based clustering method called stacked density granulation (SDG) is proposed, which constructs information granularities capable of effectively describing both convex and nonconvex data. This approach addresses the limitations of traditional information granularity. By applying the newly constructed information granularities to the feature space, the importance of features can be measured. To enhance this process, a heuristic feature selection method called density granular feature selection (DGFS) is introduced. DGFS constructs a low-dimensional feature space by aggregating and discretizing the information granularities, retaining only the most relevant features. To demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of the DGFS algorithm, 12 publicly available datasets are utilized, and its performance is compared with other feature selection methods across four different classifiers. The experimental results and the statistical significance test indicate that DGFS consistently outperforms the competing methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":13112,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics","volume":"PP ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148619766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two different adaptive update mechanisms and nonlinear functions are introduced in the observer and controller to override the unknown input of the leader.

However, their susceptibility to resonance-based acoustic interference can lead to false measurements, corrupting sensor outputs and potentially destabilizing the systems that rely on them. To detect such threats, this article proposes a sliding-window-based deep learning framework that uses temporal- and spectral-domain features to identify resonance-induced signal injections. The model is evaluated under diverse and realistic operating conditions, including both static and dynamic motion, and across three defined attack levels: soft, medium, and hard. The experimental analysis compares the performance of temporal, spectral, and a fusion of spectral- and temporal-domain features for attack detection across different window lengths. The proposed sliding window spectral-temporal deep network (SWiST DeepNet) architecture reliably detect attacks even at low intensities down to a 10-dB attack-to-signal ratio (ASR), significantly enhancing the resilience and trustworthiness of CPS against resonance-based attacks.
