The basic principle of the algorithm is that when the encoded data frame is transmitted through the channel, the signal-to-noise ratio is decreased. When the received signal exceeds the decoding capability and cannot be decoded normally, the auxiliary man-made noise is added to make the received signal to have a lower decision probability. The addition of low-power man-made noise will result in further randomization of the region with poor reliability of the original sampled data signal (close to zeros for BPSK modulation), and the bit rollover probability of the higher reliability of the sampled data is smaller. Under this condition, attempt to decode, if check data correct, decode finished, otherwise regenerate man-made noise for the next attempt until the decoding passes or reaches the maximum. This algorithm is a post-compensation processing method for existing algorithms, which play an incremental role.","PeriodicalId":294200,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 13th International Conference on Computer Research and Development (ICCRD)","volume":"45 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120922551","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}

However, organ deformation and narrow surgical field increase the task difficulty. Accordingly, the problems of the detection of surgical actions and instruments have not been solved yet. In this paper, we proposed a multiscale fusion feature pyramid network (MSF-FPN) to merge low-level semantic information and high-level semantic information. Firstly, the feature map effectively aggregates the information by the initial layer of the pyramid network, and then diverges after the cross-transmission of the feature information in the middle layer. Finally, a strong semantic feature map was obtained in the output layer. Experiments verified that the average precision of the proposed MSF-FPN on the public endoscopic surgeon action detection (ESAD) dataset is increased by 2.9% and 1.5% compared with the general FPN and path aggregation network (PANet), and the average precision on the proposed cataract-based object detection (COD) dataset is increased by 4.3% and 2.6%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":294200,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 13th International Conference on Computer Research and Development (ICCRD)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132215043","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}

This system takes advantage of the decentralized, persistent and auditable characteristics of the blockchain to solve the scalability and single point of failure problem under the traditional centralized C/S framework and provides a certain traceability for volunteer calculations. Increased scalability implies that the system can accommodate more computing jobs and participants. Solving the single-point failure problem implies that the volunteer computing system can provide researchers with longer-term and more stable computing resources. The traceability implies that anyone can view the blockchain to understand which volunteers have participated in every computing work in history and the adoption of the results provided by each volunteer. At the same time, with the help of the persistence and auditability of the blockchain, the authenticity of history can be ensured. This paper studies the C/S framework volunteer computing as well as blockchain, and proposes a framework for volunteer computing based on the blockchain.

SRGAN firstly apply GAN to SISR reconstruction, which has achieved good results. However, SRGAN sacrifices the fidelity. At the same time, it is well known that the GANs are difficult to train and the improper training fails the SISR results easily. Recently, Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network with gradient penalty (WGAN-GP) has been proposed to alleviate these issues at the expense of performance of the model with a relatively simple training process. However, we find that applying WGAN-GP to SISR still suffers from training instability, leading to failure to obtain a good SR result. To address this problem, we present an image super resolution framework base on enhanced WGAN (SRWGAN-TV). We introduce the total variational (TV) regularization term into the loss function of WGAN. The total variational (TV) regularization term can stabilize the network training and improve the quality of generated images. Experimental results on public datasets show that the proposed method achieves superior performance in both quantitative and qualitative measurements.","PeriodicalId":294200,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 13th International Conference on Computer Research and Development (ICCRD)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133493683","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}

The current crowd counting methods are mainly aimed at the situation that the crowd is full of the whole scene, which cannot be applied to practical applications due to the actual crowd is non-uniform distributed in the scene. The complex background caused by non-uniform population distribution affects the accuracy of crowd counting. Therefore, we propose a convolutional neural network with background exclusion for crowd counting. Firstly, we divide the image into blocks and then use the residual network to determine whether each block contains crowd, to eliminate the clutter background area and avoid the background interference to crowd counting. Secondly, we use the dilated convolution and asymmetric convolution to estimate the crowd density map of image blocks containing crowd. Finally, the crowd density map of all crowd areas is integrated to obtain the crowd counting results of the whole scene. We collect some images of more general scenes, such as the crowd is only a part of the whole image, and construct Non-uniformly Distributed Crowd (NDC 2020) dataset. We conduct experiments on ShanghaiTech datasets and NDC 2020 dataset. Experiment results show that our method is superior to the existing crowd counting methods in the scene of non-uniform population distribution.","PeriodicalId":294200,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 13th International Conference on Computer Research and Development (ICCRD)","volume":"9 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123782000","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}

This event has caused disruptions to many aspects of normal life. An important aspect in reducing the impact of the pandemic is to control its spread. Studies have shown that one effective method in reducing the transmission of COVID-19 is to wear masks. Strict mask-wearing policies have been met with not only public sensation but also practical difficulty. We cannot hope to manually check if everyone on a street is wearing a mask properly. Existing technology to help automate mask checking uses deep learning models on real-time surveillance camera footages. The current dominant method to perform real-time mask detection uses Mask-R-CNN with ResNet as backbone. While giving good detection results, this method is computationally intensive and its efficiency in real-time face mask detection is not ideal. Our research proposes a new approach to the mask detection by replacing Mask-R-CNN with a more efficient model \"YOLO\" to increase the processing speed of real-time mask detection and not compromise on accuracy. Besides, given the small volume as well as extreme imbalance of the mask detection datasets, we adopt a latest progress made in few-shot visual classification, simple CNAPs, to improve the classification performance.","PeriodicalId":294200,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 13th International Conference on Computer Research and Development (ICCRD)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133842497","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}

Performance improvements for single processors may be close to their limits. So multi-core processors are coming on the scene. In order to make full use of multi-core platforms, we must find the inherent parallelism of programs and write programs that can execute in parallel. OpenMP standard is widely used in parallel programming because of its good portability and ease of use. For OpenMP programs generated by parallel compilers and OpenMP programs which only have simple parallelism, they belong to programs with insufficient optimization. In OpenMP parallel execution, synchronization control is one of the main overheads. Its unnecessary barrier synchronization reduces the performance of parallel program. This paper discusses an optimization technology of OpenMP program. Firstly, the parallel area of OpenMP program is merged and expanded to reduce the overhead of parallel and serial switching in execution, and at the same time, it is convenient for next steps to optimize the program. Then explicit the implicit synchronization in OpenMP program. Finally, data dependency analysis is carried out for the context of each synchronization, and unnecessary synchronizations are deleted. The program is tested with the program running time as an index to evaluate the performance of the test program. The experimental results show that the optimization strategy proposed in this paper correctly reconstructs the parallel regions and reduces its execution overhead; it reduces the number of redundant synchronizations and effectively improve the performance of OpenMP program.","PeriodicalId":294200,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 13th International Conference on Computer Research and Development (ICCRD)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128248366","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}
