The Visual Object Tracking challenge VOT2019 is the seventh annual tracker benchmarking activity organized by VOT initiative. Results of 81 trackers are presented; many state-of-the-art published at major computer vision conferences or in journals recent years. evaluation included standard and other popular methodologies for short-term tracking analysis as well methodology long-term analysis. was composed five challenges focusing on different domains: (i) VOTST2019 focused RGB, (ii)...
In this study, we propose a novel RGB-T tracking framework by jointly modeling both appearance and motion cues. First, to obtain robust model, develop late fusion method infer the weight maps of RGB thermal (T) modalities. The weights are determined using offline-trained global local multimodal networks, then adopted linearly combine response T Second, when cue is unreliable, comprehensively take cues, i.e., target camera motions, into account make tracker robust. We further switcher switch...
With the popularity of multi-modal sensors, visible-thermal (RGB-T) object tracking is to achieve robust performance and wider application scenarios with guidance objects' temperature information. However, lack paired training samples main bottleneck for unlocking power RGB-T tracking. Since it laborious collect high-quality sequences, recent benchmarks only provide test sequences. In this paper, we construct a large-scale benchmark high diversity UAV (VTUAV), including 500 sequences 1.7...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have been widely used in various fields, and their invasion of security privacy has aroused social concern. Several detection tracking systems for UAVs introduced recent years, but most them are based on radio frequency, radar, other media. We assume that the field computer vision is mature enough to detect track invading UAVs. Thus we propose a visible light mode dataset called Dalian University Technology Anti-UAV dataset, DUT short. It contains with total...
ABSTRACT Background Cloud Computing has established itself as an efficient and cost‐effective paradigm for the execution of web‐based applications, scientific workloads, that need elasticity on‐demand scalability capabilities.

Therefore, simulators are essential tool academic industrial researchers, investigate effectiveness algorithms mechanisms in...
Due to long-distance correlation and powerful pretrained models, transformer-based methods have initiated a breakthrough in visual object tracking performance. Previous works focus on designing effective architectures suited for tracking, but ignore that data augmentation is equally crucial training well-performing model. In this paper, we first explore the impact of general augmentations trackers via systematic experiments, reveal limited effectiveness these common strategies. Motivated by...
This work studies product question answering (PQA) which aims to answer product-related questions based on customer reviews. Most recent PQA approaches adopt end2end semantic matching methodologies, map and answers a latent vector space measure their relevance. Such methods often achieve superior performance but it tends be difficult interpret why. On the other hand, simple keyword-based search exhibit natural interpretability through matched keywords, suffer from lexical gap problem. In...
The use of cloud computing for delivering application services over the Internet has gained rapid traction. Since beginning COVID-19 global pandemic, work from home scheme and increased business presence online have created more demand resources. Many enterprises organizations are expanding their private data centres utilizing hybrid or multi-cloud environments IT infrastructure. Because ever-increasing resources, energy consumption carbon emission become a pressing issue. Renewable sources...
Hourly wind power ramps in ERCOT are studied by applying extreme value theory. Mean excess plot reveals that the tail behavior of large hourly indeed follows a generalized Pareto distribution. The location, shape, and scale parameters distribution then determined using mean least square technique, from which risk measures including α quantile at conditional calculated.
Charge prediction is to automatically predict the judgemental charges for legal cases. To convict a person/unit of charge, case description must contain matching instances constitutive elements (CEs) that charge. This knowledge CEs valuable guide judge in making final decisions. However, it far from fully exploited charge literature. In this paper we propose novel method named Constitutive Elements-guided Prediction (CECP). CECP mimics human's identification process extract potential and...
To detect fundus diseases, for instance, diabetic retinopathy (DR) at an early stage, thereby providing timely intervention and treatment, a new grading method based on convolutional neural network is proposed.

Second, conditional generative adversarial with self-attention mechanism named SACGAN proposed augment number of images, addressing problems insufficient imbalanced samples....
Given a question and set of answer candidates, triggering determines whether the candidate contains any correct answers. If yes, it then outputs one. In contrast to existing pipeline methods which first consider individual answers separately make prediction based on threshold, we propose an end-to-end deep neural network framework, is trained by novel group-level objective function that directly optimizes performance. Our penalizes three potential types error allows training framework in...
In recent years, discriminative trackers show its great tracking performance, that is mainly due to the online updating using samples collected during tracking. The model could adapt appearance changes of objects and background well after updating. But these have a serious disadvantage wrong may cause severe degradation. Most training in phase are obtained according result current frame. Wrong will be when inaccurate, seriously affecting discrimination ability model. Besides, partial...
In a sequence, the appearance of both target and background often changes dramatically. Offline-trained models may not handle huge variations well, causing tracking failures. Most discriminative trackers address this issue by introducing an online update scheme, making model dynamically adapt background. Although scheme plays important role in improving tracker's accuracy, it inevitably pollutes with noisy observation samples. It is necessary to reduce risk for better tracking. work, we...
