Skin ulceration syndrome of sea cucumbers is one of the most serious diseases in intensive aquaculture, and it is the most effective way of preventing the spread of this disease to detect the abnormal behavior of sea cucumbers in time and take corresponding measures. However, the detection and tracking of multi-object is a hard problem in sea cucumber behavior analysis. To solve this problem, this paper first proposes a novel one-stage algorithm SUS-YOLOv5 for multi-object detection and tracking of sea cucumbers. The proposed SUS-YOLOv5 optimizes the maximum suppression algorithm in the overlapping region of the object detection box. Next, the SE-BiFPN feature fusion structure is proposed to enhance the transmission efficiency of feature information between deep and shallow layers of the network. Then, a MO-Tracking algorithm is proposed integrated with DeepSORT to achieve real-time multi-object tracking. Experimental results show that the mAP@0.5 and mAP@0.5:0.95 of the proposed object detector reach 95.40% and 83.80%, respectively, which are 3.30% and 4.10% higher than the original YOLOv5s. Compared with the traditional SSD, YOLOv3, and YOLOv4, the mAP of SUS-YOLOv5 is improved by 5.49%, 1.57%, and 3.76%, respectively. This research can realize the multi-object detection and tracking, which lays the foundation for the prediction of skin ulceration syndrome in sea cucumbers and has a certain practical application value for improving the intelligence level of aquaculture.

Due to its ease of implementation without an additional transmitter, radar communication integrated systems using conventional communication signals have become an effective means for monitoring unmanned aerial vehicles and other aircraft. However, their non-ideal radar signal form causes strong signals to mask weak signals, and clutter suppression is required to detect a target. As the energy of a target signal is extremely low and conventional clutter suppression methods have limited performance, the residual clutter persists after the time-varying clutter is suppressed, resulting in many false alarm points on the processed range–Doppler (RD) map. The two-dimensional distribution of these false alarms on the range–Doppler is very similar to that of the target and difficult to discriminate, which seriously affects target detection and tracking. To reduce false alarm points and improve the performance of target detection, the difference in the spatial–temporal stationarity between a target signal and clutter in a short time is discussed in this paper; a radar false alarm suppression method based on a target’s spatial–temporal stationarity is proposed by using the difference in the stationarity between the target signal and false alarm points in the range, Doppler, energy and azimuth. In this algorithm, to ensure the short-time stationarity of the target, the RD map of the short-time interval sub-frames is obtained by using the sliding matching filtering method and the peak points are extracted. Then, the Mahalanobis distance between the peak points of each sub-frame is used to eliminate the false alarm points. Finally, the false alarm points are further eliminated by target tracking and the real target information to improve the radar target detection performance. The simulation experiments show that this method can eliminate more than 90% of the false alarms points while maintaining the target detection performance. The analysis of actual data obtained from the field experiment indicate that the implementation of this algorithm, which effectively suppresses false alarms, leads to improved target detection outcomes. These enhancements can facilitate the tracking of UAVs and other aircraft.

The cultivation of saline–alkali-tolerant peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) varieties can effectively increase grain yield in saline–alkali land. However, traditional assessment methods are often cumbersome and time consuming. To rapidly identify saline–alkali stress-tolerant peanut varieties, this research proposed a saline–alkali stress tolerance evaluation method based on deep learning and multimodal data. Specifically, the research first established multimodal datasets for peanuts at different growth stages and constructed a saline–alkali stress score standard based on unsupervised learning. Subsequently, a deep learning network called BO-MFFNet was built and its structure and hyperparameters were optimized by the Bayes optimization (BO) algorithm. Finally, the point prediction of the saline–alkali stress score were carried out by using the Gaussian process regression model. The experimental results show that the multimodal method is superior to the single-modal data and the BO algorithm significantly improves the performance of the model. The root mean squared error and relative percentage deviation of the BO-MFFNet model are 0.089 and 3.669, respectively. The model effectively predicted the salt–alkali stress tolerance of five varieties, and the predicted results were Huayu25, Yuhua31, Yuhua33, Yuhua32, and Yuhua164 from high to low. This research provides a new method for assessing crop tolerance under extreme environmental stress.

This paper investigates the motion state estimation problem of the unmanned surface vehicle (USV) steering system in wireless sensor networks based on the binary coding scheme (BCS). In response to the presence of bandwidth constraints and mixed cyber-attacks in USV communication networks, this paper proposes an improved set-membership state estimation algorithm based on BCS. This algorithm partially addresses the problem of degraded performance in USV steering motion state estimation caused by mixed cyber-attacks and bandwidth constraints. Furthermore, this paper proposes a robust resilient filtering framework considering the possible occurrence of unknown but bounded (UBB) noises, model parameter uncertainties, and estimator gain perturbations in practical scenarios. The proposed framework can accurately estimate the sway velocity, yaw velocity, and roll velocity of the USV under the concurrent presence situation of mixed cyber-attacks, communication capacity constraints, UBB noises, model parameter uncertainties, and estimator gain perturbations. This paper first utilizes mathematical induction to provide the sufficient conditions for the existence of the desired estimator, and obtains the estimator gain by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities. Then, a recursive optimization algorithm is utilized to achieve optimal estimation performance. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed estimation algorithm is verified through a simulation experiment.

This paper is concerned with the state estimation problem based on non-fragile set-membership filtering for a class of measurement-saturated memristive neural networks (MNNs) with unknown but bounded (UBB) noises, mixed time delays and missing measurements (MMs), subject to cyber-attacks under the framework of weighted try-once-discard protocol (WTOD protocol). Considering bandwidth-limited open networks, this paper proposes an improved set-membership filtering based on WTOD protocol to partially solve the problem that multiple sensor-related problems and multiple network-induced phenomena influence the state estimation performance of MNNs. Moreover, this paper also discusses the gain perturbations of the estimator and proposes an improved non-fragile estimation framework based on set-membership filtering, which enhances the robustness of the estimation approach. The proposed estimation framework can effectively estimate the state of MNNs with UBB noises, estimator gain perturbations, mixed time-delays, cyber-attacks, measurement saturations and MMs. This paper first utilizes mathematical induction to provide the sufficient conditions for the existence of the desired estimator, and obtains the estimator gain by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities. Then, a recursive optimization algorithm is utilized to achieve optimal estimation performance. The effectiveness of the theoretical results is verified by comparative numerical simulation examples.

Due to the convenience of implementing without additional transmitter, radar communication integrated systems using conventional communication signals have become an effective means of monitoring unmanned aerial vehicles and other aircraft. However, the non-ideal radar signal form causes the strong signal to cover the weak signal, and the clutter suppression is required to expose the target. As the target signal is extremely low, and the performance of conventional clutter suppression methods is limited, the residual clutter remains after the time-varying clutter is suppressed, which leads to many false alarm points on the processed RD spectrum. The two-dimensional distribution of these false alarms in range-Doppler is very similar to the target and difficult to be distinguished, which seriously affects the target detection and tracking. To reduce false alarm points and improve the performance of target detection, the difference of spatial-temporal stationarity between target signal and clutter in a short time is discussed in this paper, a radar false alarm suppression method based on target spatial-temporal stationarity is proposed by using the difference of stationarity between target signal and false alarm points in range, Doppler, energy and azimuth. In this algorithm, to ensure the short-time stationarity of the target, the RD spectrum of sub-frames with short time interval is obtained by using the sliding matching filtering method and extract the peak points. Then, the Mahalanobis distance between the peak points of each sub-frame is used to eliminate false alarm points. Finally, false alarm points are further eliminated through the target tracking and retain the real target information, so as to improve the radar target detection performance. The simulation experiments show that this method can eliminate more than 90% false alarms points while maintaining the detection performance of the target. The processing of actual data in the field experiment shows that the after suppression false alarm by this algorithm can obtain more ideal target detection results, and realize the tracking of the UAV and other aircraft track.
