For the actual collected point cloud data, there are widespread challenges such as semantic inconsistency, density variations, and sparse spatial distribution. A network called PointMM is developed in this study to enhance the accuracy of point cloud semantic segmentation in complex scenes. The main contribution of PointMM involves two aspects: (1) Multi-spatial feature encoding. We leverage a novel feature encoding module to learn multi-spatial features from the neighborhood point set obtained by k-nearest neighbors (KNN) in the feature space. This enhances the network’s ability to learn the spatial structures of various samples more finely and completely. (2) Multi-head attention pooling. We leverage a multi-head attention pooling module to address the limitations of symmetric function-based pooling, such as maximum and average pooling, in terms of losing detailed feature information. This is achieved by aggregating multi-spatial and attribute features of point clouds, thereby enhancing the network’s ability to transmit information more comprehensively and accurately. Experiments on publicly available point cloud datasets S3DIS and ISPRS 3D Vaihingen demonstrate that PointMM effectively learns features at different levels, while improving the semantic segmentation accuracy of various objects. Compared to 12 state-of-the-art methods reported in the literature, PointMM outperforms the runner-up by 2.3% in OA on the ISPRS 3D Vaihingen dataset, and achieves the third best performance in both OA and MioU on the S3DIS dataset. Both achieve a satisfactory balance between OA, F1, and MioU.

In order to solve the problem of long video dependence and the difficulty of fine-grained feature extraction in the video behavior recognition of personnel sleeping at a security-monitored scene, this paper proposes a time-series convolution-network-based sleeping behavior recognition algorithm suitable for monitoring data. ResNet50 is selected as the backbone network, and the self-attention coding layer is used to extract rich contextual semantic information; then, a segment-level feature fusion module is constructed to enhance the effective transmission of important information in the segment feature sequence on the network, and the long-term memory network is used to model the entire video in the time dimension to improve behavior detection ability. This paper constructs a data set of sleeping behavior under security monitoring, and the two behaviors contain about 2800 single-person target videos. The experimental results show that the detection accuracy of the network model in this paper is significantly improved on the sleeping post data set, up to 6.69% higher than the benchmark network. Compared with other network models, the performance of the algorithm in this paper has improved to different degrees and has good application value.

Three-dimensional point cloud data generally contain complex scene information and diversified category structures. Existing point cloud semantic segmentation networks tend to learn feature information between sampled center points and their neighboring points, while ignoring the scale and structural information of the spatial context of the sampled center points. To address these issues, this paper introduces PointNAC (PointNet based on normal vector and attention copula feature enhancement), a network designed for point cloud semantic segmentation in large-scale complex scenes, which consists of the following two main modules: (1) The local stereoscopic feature-encoding module: this feature-encoding process incorporates distance, normal vectors, and angles calculated based on the cosine theorem, enabling the network to learn not only the spatial positional information of the point cloud but also the spatial scale and geometric structure; and (2) the copula-based similarity feature enhancement module. Based on the stereoscopic feature information, this module analyzes the correlation among points in the local neighborhood. It enhances the features of positively correlated points while leaving the features of negatively correlated points unchanged. By combining these enhancements, it effectively enhances the feature saliency within the same class and the feature distinctiveness between different classes. The experimental results show that PointNAC achieved an overall accuracy (OA) of 90.9% and a mean intersection over union (MIoU) of 67.4% on the S3DIS dataset. And on the Vaihingen dataset, PointNAC achieved an overall accuracy (OA) of 85.9% and an average F1 score of 70.6%. Compared to the segmentation results of other network models on public datasets, our algorithm demonstrates good generalization and segmentation capabilities.

In this paper, Driven by advanced convolutional neural networks, we present a deep generate residual similar feature networks to improve super-resolution performance. Many researches have found that many CNN network training of SR requires skill and computing equipment. The input low-resolution features and CNN intermediate features contain rich similar feature maps. The different upscaling factor is used for needing the different model, which increase computational complexity. For the problem raised above, we proposed the generate residual feature (GRF) module to generate more high-frequency information in the residual feature. Each generated residual structure contains the short skip connection and long skip connection. Furthermore, we extract the similar feature in the residual feature by considering the interrelation among residual feature. Qualitative and quantitative assessments on benchmark datasets shows that we use different methods to achieve the same effect as best results of SR, while we make the network light weighted. Meanwhile, Our experiments shows that the pedestrian detection in the monitoring scene has achieved good results.

The elevator light curtain is constrained by technical limitations in its infrared detection mechanism; thus, it is difficult to effectively identify the transparent material and elongated form of the object, which has become one of the main causes of abnormal elevator jamming accidents. To mitigate elevator accidents, we propose a novel visual segmentation method, PKNet (Prior Knowledge Network), specifically designed for detecting transparent and slender objects. We observe that the majority of cameras used in elevators are stationary, resulting in an inherently static background, while vision tasks primarily focus on detecting foreground objects. To this end, PKNet enhances the segmentation of dynamic foreground objects by incorporating prior knowledge of the static background and the characteristics of foreground objects. We also introduce ETAS-D, the first dataset designed for the segmentation of transparent and slender anomalous objects in elevator environments. This dataset consists of 4797 image frames, each with meticulously annotated masks of transparent and slender objects, captured from multiple viewpoints of 10 elevators. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that PKNet significantly outperforms existing methods in this domain. Furthermore, we propose a synthetic data generation workflow specifically designed for slender objects to enhance the model’s generalization ability and reliability.
