How can selection of biologically inspired features improve the performance of a robust object recognition model? by Masoud Ghodrati, Seyed-Mahdi Khaligh-Razavi, Reza Ebrahimpour, Karim Rajaei, Mohammad Pooyan

“…These patches are selected indiscriminately from different positions of an image and this can lead to the extraction of non-discriminating patches which eventually may reduce the performance. In the proposed model we used an evolutionary algorithm approach to select a set of informative patches. …”

Transformers deep learning models for missing data imputation: an application of the ReMasker model on a psychometric scale by Monica Casella, Nicola Milano, Pasquale Dolce, Davide Marocco

“…Traditional methods like mean imputation or regression, commonly used to handle missing data, rely upon assumptions that may not hold on psychological data and can lead to distorted results.MethodsThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of transformer-based deep learning for missing data imputation, comparing ReMasker, a masking autoencoding transformer model, with conventional imputation techniques (mean and median imputation, Expectation–Maximization algorithm) and machine learning approaches (K-nearest neighbors, MissForest, and an Artificial Neural Network). …”

Robustness evaluation of commercial liveness detection platform by Pengcheng WANG, Haibin ZHENG, Jianfei ZOU, Ling PANG, Hu LI, Jinyin CHEN

“…Liveness detection technology has become an important application in daily life, and it is used in scenarios including mobile phone face unlock, face payment, and remote authentication.However, if attackers use fake video generation technology to generate realistic face-swapping videos to attack the living body detection system in the above scenarios, it will pose a huge threat to the security of these scenarios.Aiming at this problem, four state-of-the-art Deepfake technologies were used to generate a large number of face-changing pictures and videos as test samples, and use these samples to test the online API interfaces of commercial live detection platforms such as Baidu and Tencent.The test results show that the detection success rate of Deepfake images is generally very low by the major commercial live detection platforms currently used, and they are more sensitive to the quality of images, and the false detection rate of real images is also high.The main reason for the analysis may be that these platforms were mainly designed for traditional living detection attack methods such as printing photo attacks, screen remake attacks, and silicone mask attacks, and did not integrate advanced face-changing detection technology into their liveness detection.In the algorithm, these platforms cannot effectively deal with Deepfake attacks.Therefore, an integrated live detection method Integranet was proposed, which was obtained by integrating four detection algorithms for different image features.It could effectively detect traditional attack methods such as printed photos and screen remakes.It could also effectively detect against advanced Deepfake attacks.The detection effect of Integranet was verified on the test data set.The results show that the detection success rate of Deepfake images by proposed Integranet detection method is at least 35% higher than that of major commercial live detection platforms.…”

Optimization of grounding resistance in multitrain DC subway system based on MOEA/D‐DE by Na Liu, Guifu Du, Fei He, Qiaoyue Li, Fengchuan Xu, Weiguo Huang, Xingxing Jiang, Zhongkui Zhu

“…Over voltage protection device (OVPD) is generally chosen to control the RP, but its action process may increase the amplitude of SC seriously. Here, the grounding resistance of OVPD is optimized by a proposed multi‐objective decomposition algorithm based on differential evolution (MOEA/D‐DE) to suppress the rise of RP and SC synergistically. …”
