Article Abstract

Sparse representation (SR) has been verified to be an effective tool for pattern recognition. Considering the multiplicative speckle noise in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, a product sparse representation (PSR) algorithm is proposed to achieve SAR target configuration recognition. To extract the essential characteristics of SAR images, the product model is utilized to describe SAR images. The advantages of sparse representation and the product model are combined to realize a more accurate sparse representation of the SAR image. Moreover, in order to weaken the influences of the speckle noise on recognition, the speckle noise of SAR images is modeled by the Gamma distribution, and the sparse vector of the SAR image is obtained from q statistical standpoint. Experiments are conducted on the moving and stationary target acquisition and recognition (MSTAR) database. The experimental results validate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm, which can achieve higher recognition rates than some of the state-of-the-art algorithms under different circumstances.

Radiance fields represented by 3D Gaussians excel at synthesizing novel views, offering both high training efficiency and fast rendering. However, with sparse input views, the lack of multi-view consistency constraints results in poorly initialized Gaussians and unreliable heuristics for optimization, leading to suboptimal performance. Existing methods often incorporate depth priors from dense estimation networks but overlook the inherent multi-view consistency in input images.

Drug-target interaction (DTI) identification is of great significance in drug development in various areas, such as drug repositioning and potential drug side effects. Although a great variety of computational methods have been proposed for DTI prediction, it is still a challenge in the face of sparsely correlated drugs or targets. To address the impact of data sparsity on the model, we propose a multi-view neighborhood-enhanced graph contrastive learning approach (MneGCL), which is based on graph clustering according to the adjacency relationship in various similarity networks between drugs or targets, to fully exploit the information of drugs and targets with few corrections.

School curricula guide the daily learning activities of millions of students. They embody the understanding of the education experts who designed them of how to organize the knowledge that students should acquire in a way that is optimal for learning. This can be viewed as a learning 'theory' which is, nevertheless, rarely put to the test.

This paper presents a novel multiscale signal processing framework for power quality disturbance (PQD) and cyber intrusion detection in smart grids, combining Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT), Split Augmented Lagrangian Shrinkage Algorithm (SALSA), and Morphological Component Analysis (MCA). A key innovation lies in an adaptive weighting mechanism within NSCT's directional sub bands, enabling dynamic energy redistribution and enhanced representation of both low-frequency anomalies (e.g.
