Fast blind detection of short-wave frequency hopping signal based on MeanShift by Zhengyu ZHU, Yu LIN, Zixuan WANG, Kexian GONG, Pengfei CHEN, Zhongyong WANG, Jing LIANG

“…In the complex short-wave channel environment, combined with time-frequency analysis technology, a fast blind detection algorithm of the connected domain labeled frequency hopping signals based on MeanShift algorithm was proposed to reduce the influence of various interference signals and noises on frequency hopping signals and realize blind detection of frequency hopping signals under low signal-to-noise ratio.Firstly, the channel environment gray-scale time-frequency map was filtered by the secondary gray-scale morphology to obtain the binary time-frequency map.Secondly, the maximum duration of the signal was calculated by the connected domain labeling algorithm.Then, the MeanShift algorithm was used to cluster the maximum duration of the signal.Finally, the clustering result was made a second judgment by combining with the adaptive double threshold.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can quickly separate various interference signals and sharp noise under low signal-to-noise ratio, and realize fast blind detection of frequency hopping signals without any prior information.It has high detection probability, strong anti-interference ability in short-wave channel environment, low computational complexity and high engineering practical value.…”

A reversible database watermarking method non-redundancy shifting-based histogram gaps by Yan Li, Junwei Wang, Xiangyang Luo

“…Finally, a watermark bit is embedded on the group by the histogram non-redundant shifting method. Experimental results show that compared with existing reversible database watermarking methods, such as genetic algorithm and histogram shift watermarking and histogram gap–based watermarking, the proposed method has no data distortion caused by the shifting redundant histogram columns after embedding watermarks on forest cover type data set and effectively reduces the data distortion rate after embedding watermarks.…”

Vibe++ background segmentation method combining MeanShift clustering analysis and convolutional neural network by Zihao LIU, Xiaojun JIA, Sulan ZHANG, Zhiling XU, Jun ZHANG

“…To solve problems of noise points and high segmentation error for image shadow brought by traditional Vibe+ algorithm, a novel background segmentation method (Vibe++) based on the improved Vibe+ was proposed.Firstly, binarization image was acquired by using traditional Vibe+ algorithm from surveillance video.The connected regions were marked based on the region-growing domain marker method.The area threshold was obtained with difference characteristics of boundary area, the connected regions below threshold were treated as disturbing points.Secondly, five different kernel functions were introduced to improve the traditional MeanShift clustering algorithm.After improving, this algorithm was fused effectively with partitioned convolutional neural network.Finally, program of classification of trailing area, non-trailing area and trailing edge area in the resulting image was performed.Position coordinates of the trailing area were calculated and confirmed, and the trailing area was quickly deleted to obtain the final segmentation result.This segmentation accuracy was greatly improved by using the proposed method.The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve segmentation accuracy of more than 98% and has good application effect and high practical value.…”
