FPGA clusters that consist of multiple FPGA boards have been gaining interest in recent times. Massively parallel processing with a stand-alone heterogeneous FPGA cluster with SoC- style FPGAs and mid-scale FPGAs is promising with cost-performance benefit. Here, we propose such a heterogeneous FPGA cluster with FiC and M-KUBOS cluster. FiC consists of multiple boards, mounting middle scale Xilinx's FPGAs and DRAMs, which are tightly coupled with high-speed serial links. In addition, M-KUBOS boards are connected to FiC for ensuring high IO data transfer bandwidth. As an example of massively parallel processing, here we implement genomic pattern search. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has revolutionized biological system related research by its high-speed, scalable and massive throughput. To analyze the genomic data, short read mapping technique is used where short Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequences are mapped relative to a known reference sequence. Although several pattern matching techniques are available, FM-index based pattern search is perfectly suitable for this task due to the fastest mapping from known indices. Since matching can be done in parallel for different data, the massively parallel computing which distributes data, executes in parallel and gathers the results can be applied. We also implement a data compression method where about 10 times reduction in data size is achieved. We found that a M-KUBOS board matches four FiC boards, and a system with six M-KUBOS boards and 24 FiC boards achieved 30 times faster than the software based implementation.

We assess how well the recently created MRI reconstruction technique, Multi-Resolution Convolutional Neural Network (MRCNN), performs in the core medical vision field (classification). The primary goal of MRCNN is to identify the best k-space undersampling patterns to accelerate the MRI. In this study, we use the Figshare brain tumor dataset for MRI classification with 3064 T1-weighted contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) over three categories: meningioma, glioma, and pituitary tumors. We apply MRCNN to the dataset, which is a method to reconstruct high-quality images from under-sampled k-space signals. Next, we employ the pre-trained VGG16 model, which is a Deep Neural Network (DNN) based image classifier to the MRCNN restored MRIs to classify the brain tumors. Our experiments showed that in the case of MRCNN restored data, the proposed brain tumor classifier achieved 92.79% classification accuracy for a 10% sampling rate, which is slightly higher than that of SRCNN, MoDL, and Zero-filling methods have 91.89%, 91.89%, and 90.98% respectively. Note that our classifier was trained using the dataset consisting of the images with full sampling and their labels, which can be regarded as a model of the usual human diagnostician. Hence our results would suggest MRCNN is useful for human diagnosis. In conclusion, MRCNN significantly enhances the accuracy of the brain tumor classification system based on the tumor location using under-sampled k-space signals.

In this study, we present a spherical style deformation algorithm to be applied on single component models that can deform the models with spherical style, while preserving the local details of the original models. Because 3D models have complex skeleton structures that consist of many components, the deformation around connections between each single component is complicated, especially preventing mesh self-intersections. To the best of our knowledge, there does not exist not only methods to achieve a spherical style in a 3D model consisting of multiple components but also methods suited to a single component. In this study, we focus on spherical style deformation of single component models. Accordingly, we propose a deformation method that transforms the input model with the spherical style, while preserving the local details of the input model. Specifically, we define an energy function that combines the as-rigid-as-possible (ARAP) method and spherical features. The spherical term is defined as ℓ2-regularization on a linear feature; accordingly, the corresponding optimization can be solved efficiently. We also observed that the results of our deformation are dependent on the quality of the input mesh. For instance, when the input mesh consists of many obtuse triangles, the spherical style deformation method fails. To address this problem, we propose an optional deformation method based on convex hull proxy model as the complementary deformation method. Our proxy method constructs a proxy model of the input model and applies our deformation method to the proxy model to deform the input model by projection and interpolation. We have applied our proposed method to simple and complex shapes, compared our experimental results with the 3D geometric stylization method of normal-driven spherical shape analogies, and confirmed that our method successfully deforms models that are smooth, round, and curved. We also discuss the limitations and problems of our algorithm based on the experimental results.

Modern distributed storage requires microsecond-scale tail latency, but the current coordinator-based quorum coordination causes a burdensome latency overhead. This paper presents Archon, a new quorum coordination architecture that supports low tail latency for microsecond-scale replicated storage. The key idea of Archon is to perform the quorum coordination in the network switch by leveraging the flexibility and capability of emerging programmable switch ASICs. Our in-network quorum coordination is based on the observation that the modern programmable switch provides nanosecond-scale processing delay and high flexibility simultaneously. To realize the idea, we design a custom switch data plane. We implement a Archon prototype on an Intel Tofino switch and conduct a series of testbed experiments. Our experimental results show that Archon can provide lower tail latency than the coordinator-based solution.

Existing simple routing protocols (e.g., OSPF, RIP) have some disadvantages of being inflexible and prone to congestion due to the concentration of packets on particular routers. To address these issues, packet routing methods using machine learning have been proposed recently. Compared to these algorithms, machine learning based methods can choose a routing path intelligently by learning efficient routes. However, machine learning based methods have a disadvantage of training time overhead. We thus focus on a lightweight machine learning algorithm, OS-ELM (Online Sequential Extreme Learning Machine), to reduce the training time. Although previous work on reinforcement learning using OS-ELM exists, it has a problem of low learning accuracy. In this paper, we propose OS-ELM QN (Q-Network) with a prioritized experience replay buffer to improve the learning performance. It is compared to a deep reinforcement learning based packet routing method using a network simulator. Experimental results show that introducing the experience replay buffer improves the learning performance. OS-ELM QN achieves a 2.33 times speedup than a DQN (Deep Q-Network) in terms of learning speed. Regarding the packet transfer latency, OS-ELM QN is comparable or slightly inferior to the DQN while they are better than OSPF in most cases since they can distribute congestions.

This paper mainly proposes a line segment detection method based on pseudo peak suppression and local Hough transform, which has good noise resistance and can solve the problems of short line segment missing detection, false detection, and oversegmentation. In addition, in response to the phenomenon of uneven development in nuclear emulsion tomographic images, this paper proposes an image preprocessing process that uses the “Difference of Gaussian” method to reduce noise and then uses the standard deviation of the gray value of each pixel to bundle and unify the gray value of each pixel, which can robustly obtain the linear features in these images. The tests on the actual dataset of nuclear emulsion tomographic images and the public YorkUrban dataset show that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy of convolutional neural network or vision in transformer-based event classification for alpha-decay events in nuclear emulsion. In particular, the line segment detection method in the proposed method achieves optimal results in both accuracy and processing speed, which also has strong generalization ability in high quality natural images.

We present an effective system for integrating generative zero-shot classification modules into a YOLO-like dense detector to detect novel objects. Most double-stage-based novel object detection methods are achieved by refining the classification output branch but cannot be applied to a dense detector. Our system utilizes two paths to inject knowledge of novel objects into a dense detector. One involves injecting the class confidence for novel classes from a classifier trained on data synthesized via a dual-step generator. This generator learns a mapping function between two feature spaces, resulting in better classification performance. The second path involves re-training the detector head with feature maps synthesized on different intensity levels. This approach significantly increases the predicted objectness for novel objects, which is a major challenge for a dense detector. We also introduce a stop-and-reload mechanism during re-training for optimizing across head layers to better learn synthesized features. Our method relaxes the constraint on the detector head architecture in the previous method and has markedly enhanced performance on the MSCOCO dataset.

Driver fatigue detection has become crucial in vehicle safety technology. Achieving high accuracy and real-time performance in detecting driver fatigue is paramount. In this paper, we propose a novel driver fatigue detection algorithm based on dynamic tracking of Facial Eyes and Yawning using YOLOv7, named FEY-YOLOv7. The Coordinate Attention module is inserted into YOLOv7 to enhance its dynamic tracking accuracy by focusing on coordinate information. Additionally, a small target detection head is incorporated into the network architecture to promote the feature extraction ability of small facial targets such as eyes and mouth. In terms of compution, the YOLOv7 network architecture is significantly simplified to achieve high detection speed. Using the proposed PERYAWN algorithm, driver status is labeled and detected by four classes: open_eye, closed_eye, open_mouth, and closed_mouth. Furthermore, the Guided Image Filtering algorithm is employed to enhance image details. The proposed FEY-YOLOv7 is trained and validated on RGB-infrared datasets. The results show that FEY-YOLOv7 has achieved mAP of 0.983 and FPS of 101. This indicates that FEY-YOLOv7 is superior to state-of-the-art methods in accuracy and speed, providing an effective and practical solution for image-based driver fatigue detection.

The maximal independent set (MIS) problem is one of the most fundamental problems in the field of distributed computing. This paper focuses on the MIS problem with unreliable communication between processes in the system. We propose a relaxed notion of MIS, named almost MIS (ALMIS), and show that the loosely-stabilizing algorithm proposed in our previous work can achieve exponentially long holding time with logarithmic convergence time and space complexity regarding ALMIS, which cannot be achieved at the same time regarding MIS in our previous work.

As a typical surface defect of tunnel lining structures, cracking disease affects the durability of tunnel structures and poses hidden dangers to tunnel driving safety. Factors such as interference from the complex service environment of the tunnel and the low signal-to-noise ratio of the crack targets themselves, have led to existing crack recognition methods based on semantic segmentation being unable to meet actual engineering needs. Based on this, this paper uses the Unet network as the basic framework for crack identification and proposes to construct a multi-kernel convolution cascade enhancement (MKCE) model to achieve accurate detection and identification of crack diseases. First of all, to ensure the performance of crack feature extraction, the model modified the main feature extraction network in the basic framework to ResNet-50 residual network. Compared with the VGG-16 network, this modification can extract richer crack detail features while reducing model parameters. Secondly, considering that the Unet network cannot effectively perceive multi-scale crack features in the skip connection stage, a multi-kernel convolution cascade enhancement module is proposed by combining a cascaded connection of multi-kernel convolution groups and multi-expansion rate dilated convolution groups. This module achieves a comprehensive perception of local details and the global content of tunnel lining cracks. In addition, to better weaken the effect of tunnel background clutter interference, a convolutional block attention calculation module is further introduced after the multi-kernel convolution cascade enhancement module, which effectively reduces the false alarm rate of crack recognition. The algorithm is tested on a large number of subway tunnel crack image datasets. The experimental results show that, compared with other crack recognition algorithms based on deep learning, the method in this paper has achieved the best results in terms of accuracy and intersection over union (IoU) indicators, which verifies the method in this paper has better applicability.

Based on this, this paper uses the Unet network as the basic framework for crack identification and proposes to construct a multi-kernel convolution cascade enhancement (MKCE) model to achieve accurate detection and identification of crack diseases. First of all, to ensure the performance of crack feature extraction, the model modified the main feature extraction network in the basic framework to ResNet-50 residual network. Compared with the VGG-16 network, this modification can extract richer crack detail features while reducing model parameters. Secondly, considering that the Unet network cannot effectively perceive multi-scale crack features in the skip connection stage, a multi-kernel convolution cascade enhancement module is proposed by combining a cascaded connection of multi-kernel convolution groups and multi-expansion rate dilated convolution groups. This module achieves a comprehensive perception of local details and the global content of tunnel lining cracks. In addition, to better weaken the effect of tunnel background clutter interference, a convolutional block attention calculation module is further introduced after the multi-kernel convolution cascade enhancement module, which effectively reduces the false alarm rate of crack recognition. The algorithm is tested on a large number of subway tunnel crack image datasets. The experimental results show that, compared with other crack recognition algorithms based on deep learning, the method in this paper has achieved the best results in terms of accuracy and intersection over union (IoU) indicators, which verifies the method in this paper has better applicability.","PeriodicalId":55002,"journal":{"name":"IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135372680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
