With the development of image recovery models, especially those based on adversarial and perceptual losses, the detailed texture portions of images are being recovered more naturally. However, these restored images are similar but not identical in detail texture to their reference images. With traditional image quality assessment methods, results with better subjective perceived quality often score lower in objective scoring. Assessment methods suffer from subjective and objective inconsistencies. This paper proposes a regional differential information entropy (RDIE) method for image quality assessment to address this problem. This approach allows better assessment of similar but not identical textural details and achieves good agreement with perceived quality. Neural networks are used to reshape the process of calculating information entropy, improving the speed and efficiency of the operation. Experiments conducted with this study’s image quality assessment dataset and the PIPAL dataset show that the proposed RDIE method yields a high degree of agreement with people’s average opinion scores compared with other image quality assessment metrics, proving that RDIE can better quantify the perceived quality of images.
This paper proposed a method for reconstructing floorplans from indoor point clouds. Unlike existing corner and line primitive detection algorithms, this method uses a generative adversarial network to learn the complex distribution of indoor layout graphics, and repairs incomplete room masks into more regular segmentation areas. Automatic learning of the structure information of layout graphics can reduce the dependence on geometric priors, and replacing complex optimization algorithms with Deep Neural Networks (DNN) can improve the efficiency of data processing. The proposed method can retain more shape information from the original data and improve the accuracy of the overall structure details. On this basis, the method further used an edge optimization algorithm to eliminate pixel-level edge artifacts that neural networks cannot perceive. Finally, combined with the constraint information of the overall layout, the method can generate compact floorplans with rich semantic information. Experimental results indicated that the algorithm has robustness and accuracy in complex 3D indoor datasets; its performance is competitive with those of existing methods.
High-precision, high-speed detection and classification of weakly differentiated targets has always been a difficult problem in the field of image vision. In this paper, the detection of phytopathogenic Bursaphelenchus xylophilus with small size and very weak inter-species differences is taken as an example. Our work is aimed at the current problem of weakly differentiated target detection: We propose a lightweight self attention network. Experiments show that the key feature recognition areas of plant nematodes found by our Self Attention network are in good agreement with the experience and knowledge of customs experts, and the feature areas found by this method can obtain higher detection accuracy than expert knowledge; In order to optimize the computing power brought by the whole image input, we use low resolution images to quickly obtain the location coordinates of key features, and then obtain the information of high resolution feature regions based on the coordinates; The adaptive weighted multi feature joint detection method based on heat map brightness is adopted to further improve the detection accuracy; We have constructed a more complete high-resolution training data set, involving 24 species of Equisetum and other common hybrids, with a total data volume of more than 10,000. The algorithm proposed in this paper replaces the tedious extensive manual labelling in the training process, improves the average training time of the model by more than 50%, reduces the testing time of a single sample by about 27%, optimizes the model storage size by 65%, improves the detection accuracy of the ImageNet pre-trained model by 12.6%, and improves the detection accuracy of the no-ImageNet pre-trained model by more than 48%.
