In this paper, a new 5-D chaotic system with hidden attractor was presented. The stability and equilibrium points set of the system were analyzed by the traditional dynamical analysis method. Meanwhile, several special phenomena were found in the system, such as chaos degradation, state transition, multiwing chaotic attractors, coexisting-attractors etc. verifying the application of the system in engineering, offset boosting control method is introduced and numerical simulation of the system is implemented. In addition, the complexity of Spectral Entropy (SE) and C ₀ are analyzed. Finally, the new system was simulated by the digital signal processing (DSP) technology, and the results agree well with the numerical simulation result. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the system has complex dynamical characteristics and can be applied to secure communication and image encryption.

In view of the current absence of any deep learning algorithm for shellfish identification in real contexts, an improved Faster R-CNN-based detection algorithm is proposed in this paper. It achieves multiobject recognition and localization through a second-order detection network and replaces the original feature extraction module with DenseNet, which can fuse multilevel feature information, increase network depth, and avoid the disappearance of network gradients. Meanwhile, the proposal merging strategy is improved with Soft-NMS, where an attenuation function is designed to replace the conventional NMS algorithm, thereby avoiding missed detection of adjacent or overlapping objects and enhancing the network detection accuracy under multiple objects. By constructing a real contexts shellfish dataset and conducting experimental tests on a vision recognition seafood sorting robot production line, we were able to detect the features of shellfish in different scenarios, and the detection accuracy was improved by nearly 4% compared to the original detection model, achieving a better detection accuracy. This provides favorable technical support for future quality sorting of seafood using the improved Faster R-CNN-based approach.

A new four-dimensional chaotic system is designed in the paper. The equilibrium point and stability of the chaotic system are analyzed, and the dynamical behaviors of the system under different parameters are analyzed by using Lyapunov exponents, Bfurcation diagram, SE and C0 complexity algorithms. The special phenomenon of the coexistence of attractors is also found. Finally, the implementation of circuit of the new system is carried out using digital signal processing (DSP) technology, and the results are consistent with the numerical simulation results, which prove the validity of the theoretical analysis. Through analysis and simulation of the system, it can be found that it has relatively rich dynamic characteristics and can be applied in areas such as confidential communication and image encryption.

This study presents an application-oriented CFD–FEM integrated workflow for analyzing chamber-side field non-uniformity and kelp-side thermal response during infrared drying. A three-dimensional steady-state CFD model was first established to reconstruct the chamber temperature, airflow, and incident radiation fields under certain operating conditions. Numerical consistency was checked through residual convergence; monitored variables; and global mass balance, for which the net mass imbalance was 0.004077 kg s⁻¹. The reconstructed mid-plane fields were then processed in MATLAB to extract the mean values, extrema, and coefficients of variation, and a composite objective function was used to screen the tested operating conditions in terms of field uniformity, temperature band compliance, and overheating risk. The thermal loads obtained via CFD were subsequently mapped onto a kelp finite element model to simulate the transient surface temperature evolution. Among the tested cases, case01 yielded the lowest composite objective value (J = 0.4535); its mapped kelp response showed a mean surface temperature of 62.23 °C and a maximum temperature of 63.57 °C at the exported time step. The proposed framework is therefore suitable for thermal response assessment and operating condition screening, although determining the full drying behavior still requires coupling of moisture transfer and improved experimental validation.

Background: Image-based dietary assessment provides a more intuitive approach for nutritional monitoring and health management. However, in multi-category bowl-based meals, food boundary adhesion, spatial stacking, and staple-food occlusion by upper-layer dishes still affect the accuracy of volume, weight, and nutritional composition prediction. Methods: This study proposes a nutrition prediction method for bowl-based foods by integrating semantic segmentation, multi-view three-dimensional reconstruction, and occlusion compensation. The improved DBP-FDSNet was used to extract food-category masks from top-view RGB images, while detail enhancement, boundary-assisted supervision, and spatial position encoding were incorporated to improve the segmentation quality of food boundaries and adhesion regions. The visible food surface inside the bowl was reconstructed using a bowl instance model and RGB-TSDF-based multi-view fusion, and the two-dimensional semantic results were mapped into the height-field parameter domain for category-level volume integration. For partially occluded, severely occluded, or completely invisible staple foods, a layered compensation strategy was introduced to reduce staple-food volume prediction errors and the erroneous assignment of upper-layer food volume. Food weight and whole-bowl Calories, Fat, Carbohydrate, and Protein were finally predicted using food density and a nutritional composition database. Results: DBP-FDSNet achieved a meanIntersectionoverUnion ($mIoU$) of 80.51% and a BoundaryF1 Score ($bF1$) of 85.73%. At the whole-bowl level, the MeanAbsolutePercentageError ($MAPE$) values for Calories, Fat, Carbohydrate, Protein, and total food mass were 13.23%, 18.51%, 14.18%, 13.35%, and 10.85%, respectively. Conclusions: The method improves the stability of category-level volume and nutritional composition prediction in complex bowl-based meal scenarios, providing a feasible solution for image-based dietary assessment and intelligent nutrition management.
