The widespread deployment of monitoring equipment has prompted us to focus on the target re-identification (Re-ID) issue. One major challenge about this issue is that the identified targets are often obscured by different obstacles, which leads to bad performance. In practical applications, the occluded Re-ID task is very significant to complete. Previous approaches have focused on improving the occluded Re-ID performance but have neglected the lightweight problem, which makes the model difficult to deploy in the real world. Therefore, this paper proposes a lightweight framework that ensures occluded Re-ID performance and deploys at the edge to solve the problem of long transmission time and high latency caused by wireless and cloud technology in CE. This framework tackles occluded target Re-ID issues by integrating omni-scale features with human keypoint estimation and multi-head attention mechanism (OHMA). To solve the vehicle Re-ID problem, we use the cutout method to simulate an occlusion scene due to the lack of occluded vehicle data. Then, The multi-head attention mechanism combines with the omni-scale network (OSNet) to learn vehicles subtle features. To deal with occluded pedestrians, human keypoint estimation focuses on non-occluded areas of pedestrian images by paying attention to visible information about the human body. The generated heatmaps fuse omni-scale feature maps to explore better feature representations. In addition, the HUAWEI Atlas 200I DK A2 is used to simulate real edge devices and evaluate the experiments on both public and real-world private datasets. The results demonstrate that our framework improves the occluded Re-ID performance while ensuring lightweight. Compared with the previous methods, OHMA displays advantages in occlusion scenes.","PeriodicalId":13208,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics","volume":"70 4","pages":"7424-7435"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142189683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deep learning models are highly susceptible to adversarial attacks, and defense against such attacks is critical to the safety of 6G Consumer Electronics. However, there remains a lack of effective defensive mechanisms against adversarial attacks in the realm of deep learning. The primary issue lies in the fact that it is not yet understood how adversarial examples can deceive deep learning models. The potential operation mechanism of adversarial examples has not been fully explored, which constitutes a bottleneck in adversarial attack defense. This paper focuses on causality in adversarial examples such as combining the adversarial attack algorithms with the causal inference methods. Specifically, we will use a variety of adversarial attack algorithms to generate adversarial samples, and analyze the causal relationship between adversarial samples and original samples through causal inference. At the same time, we will compare and analyze the causal effect between them to reveal the mechanism and discover the reason of miscalculating. The expected contributions of this paper include: (1) Reveal the mechanism and influencing factors of counterattack, and provide theoretical support for the security of deep learning models; (2) Propose a defense strategy based on causal inference method to provide a practical method for the defense of deep learning models; (3) Provide new ideas and methods for adversarial attack defense in deep learning models.","PeriodicalId":13208,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics","volume":"70 3","pages":"5804-5813"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142224474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current computer-aided methods of COVID19 detection face difficulty to distinguish between COVID19 and pneumonia since they share common symptoms. Traditional methods for solving binary classification problems with COVID-19 classes are limited in their calibre to balance efficiency and accuracy. On the other hand, medical devices like reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) take longer than an hour to produce test results, and Rapid Antigen Testing (RAT) is less effective at detecting COVID-19 because it can produce false positive or false negative results. The biggest challenges here are efficiency and accuracy. To address these issues, this study introduces a novel deep multi-layer COVID19 chest X-ray based lung contamination recognition network (XCR-Net) to detect COVID-19, pneumonia, and normal individuals. Our proposed XCR-Net has been tested with five different chest X-ray datasets, having normal, COVID19, and pneumonia case chest X-ray images, and the consistency of XCR-Net has been verified by a 10-fold cross validation scheme. This multi-class study reports the class-wise and overall performance of XCR-Net, and it outperforms all other multi-class COVID-19 endeavours. Future biomedical researchers and IT professionals will be able to advance chest X-ray research with the help of the envisioned XCR-Net.","PeriodicalId":13208,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics","volume":"70 4","pages":"7551-7561"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142224476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One major difficulty of this perspective is the challenges of computation offloading between resource-constrained edge devices, and UAVs. This paper proposes an innovative framework to solve the computation offloading problem using a multi-objective Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) technique. The proposed approach helps in finding a balance between delays and energy consumption by using the concept of Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML).

Deploying multiple IoT nodes on such networks makes the process complex and challenging. In such cases, quality of Service (QoS) is critical as it ensures critical network performance and leverages improved end-user experience. There have been some existing heuristic/meta-heuristic works to address the QoS in next-generation WSNs; however, they are sensitive to their parametric values due to a lack of expert knowledge. Some are less robust and less adaptable in dynamic networks due to poorer balanced exploration of the solution space, exploitation of known semi-optimal/optimal solutions, and inefficient resource utilization in constrained environments such as edge devices. The suggested consumer electronics-based research presents an innovative solution, ‘RL-MODE,’ which incorporates Reinforcement Learning-Enhanced Multiobjective Optimisation Algorithms to address QoS management difficulties in edge-enabled WSN-IoT systems. The proposed methodology optimises competing objectives simultaneously, such as minimising energy use and latency while maximizing throughput and coverage, all while keeping the resource-constrained nature of edge devices in mind. The proposed RL-MODE Algorithm comprises Multiobjective Differential Evolution (MODE) Algorithm and a new Reinforcement Learning (RL) adaption technique to develop Pareto-optimal solutions by analysing the complicated linkages between input parameters, edge resources, and QoS parameters. Simulations and experiments with Next-Gen WSN-IoT applications show the effectiveness of the proposed method. This not only improves QoS in WSN-IoT applications, but it also increases resource utilisation and scalability in edge computing settings.","PeriodicalId":13208,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics","volume":"70 4","pages":"6507-6518"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142189670","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
