In this work, a novel and systematic enhancement method based on contrast enhancement is proposed to restore the degraded underwater images. The proposed method mainly contains three steps. First, the quadtree subdivision strategy is adopted to estimate the waterlight. Then we formulate a cost function and minimize it so as to find the optimal transmission map which is able to maximize the image contrast. Once the waterlight and transmission map are obtained, based on the underwater image degradation model, the backscattering effect and color distortion caused by the light attenuation along the underwater object-camera path can be corrected. Finally, to further compensate for the color loss along the surface-object propagation path, a simple but effective color correction method is applied. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method can achieve comparable or even better results than some state-of-the-art approaches.","PeriodicalId":206199,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116674616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper we propose a novel framework to boost the speed and reduce the size of CNN based models, and to test it on the human gait recognition task. The idea is to develop a small and fast fully connected network (FCN) which retains the learning ability of the original large CNN. Specially, we build a large CNN model, and train with gait gallery data to obtain parameters of each layer. Then we design a small FCN that inherit the softmax weight matrix from the CNN, and use the gallery data to generate parameters of rest of the layers for the FCN. We use CASIA Gait Dataset B to evaluate the proposed framework, and test the performance under multiple covariate factors. The experimental results suggest that the extended FCN is able to retain most of the learning abilities from the large CNN model.

To reduce the risk of incorrect readback, this paper proposes a method verifying the semantic consistency of the ARC. We firstly apply Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Long Short-Term memory Recurrent Neural Network (LSTM-RNN) to extract the semantic meaning of ARC and represent it with semantic vector, and then add a sigmoid layer at the output of RNN or LSTM-RNN to verify the semantic consistency. The RNN or LSTM-RNN are trained in a supervised learning method. We evaluate the proposed architecture on ARC corpus.
