A Microwave Vision-Enhanced Environmental Perception Method for the Visual Navigation of UAVs by Rui Li, Dewei Wu, Peiran Li, Chenhao Zhao, Jingyi Zhang, Jing He

“…In particular, the richness of perceived environmental information can be enhanced by SAR and optical image fusion processing in the case of sufficient light and clear weather. In order to simultaneously mitigate inherent SAR speckle noise and address existing fusion algorithms’ inadequate consideration of UAV navigation-specific environmental perception requirements, this paper designs a SAR Target-Augmented Fusion (STAF) algorithm based on the target detection of SAR images. …”

An Improved Optimal Cloud Entropy Extension Cloud Model for the Risk Assessment of Soft Rock Tunnels in Fault Fracture Zones by Shuangqing Ma, Yongli Xie, Junling Qiu, Jinxing Lai, Hao Sun

“…Existing risk assessment approaches for soft rock tunnels in fault-fractured zones typically employ single weighting schemes, inadequately integrate subjective and objective weights, and fail to define clear risk. This study proposes a risk-grading methodology that integrates an enhanced game theoretic weight-balancing algorithm with an optimized cloud entropy extension cloud model. …”
