Coarse-to-Fine UAV Target Tracking With Deep Reinforcement Learning

The aspect ratio of a target changes frequently during an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tracking task, which makes the aerial tracking very challenging. Traditional trackers struggle from such a problem as they mainly focus on the scale variation issue by maintaining a certain aspect ratio. In this paper, we propose a coarse-to-fine deep scheme to address the aspect ratio variation in UAV tracking. The coarse-tracker first produces an initial estimate for the target object, then a sequence of actions are learned to fine-tune the four boundaries of the bounding box. The coarse-tracker and the fine-tracker are designed to have different action spaces and operating target. The former dominates the entire bounding box and the latter focuses on the refinement of each boundary. They are trained jointly by sharing the perception network with an end-to-end reinforcement learning architecture. Experimental results on benchmark aerial data set prove that the proposed approach outperforms existing trackers and produces significant accuracy gains in dealing with the aspect ratio variation in UAV tracking. Note to Practitioners—During the past years, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) have gained much attention for both industrial and consumer uses. It is in urgent demand to endow the UAV with intelligent vision-based techniques, and the automatic target following via visual tracking methods as one of the most fundamental intelligent features could promote various applications of UAVs, such as surveillance, augmented reality, and behavior modeling. Nonetheless, the primary issue of a UAV-based tracking method is the platform itself: it is not stable, it tends to have sudden movements, it generates nonhomogeneous data (scale, angle, rotation, depth, and so on), all of them tend to change the aspect ratio of the target frequently and further increase the difficulty of object tracking. This paper aims to address the aspect ratio change (ARC) problem in UAV tracking. We present a coarse-to-fine strategy for UAV tracking. Specifically, the coarse bounding box is obtained to locate the target firstly. Then, a refinement scheme is performed on each boundary to further improve the position estimate. The tracker is proved to be effective to increase the resistance to the ARC. Such a method can be implemented on UAV to improve the target-following performance.

Jeffcoate's Principles of Gynaecology

usually require more guidance in interpreting the data they receive than in selecting the investigations their patients require. The omission from some of the chapters of adequate information about normal ranges, not to mention the absence of a discussion of which data are normally distributed and which are not, must limit the book's general appeal. All clinicians will be pleased to find that the necessity of interpreting electrophysiological findings in the clinical context is properly stressed throughout. Whilst clinical neurophysiology is likely to continue to complement modern imaging techniques for some time to come it is clear that its ultimate contribution to clinical management will probably emphasize the functional as opposed to the structural abnormalities which it can demonstrate. These portents are well discussed in relation to computerisation of EEG and evoked potentials, and all too briefly in chapters dealing with central nervous system disorders and event related potentials. For the clinical neurophysiologist, often practising in relative isolation, there is an abundance of thoughtprovoking information and probably some invaluable refresher material as well. There are a few surprises, such as the definition of supramaximal stimulation. The statement that somatosensory evoked potentials give a higher yield than visual evoked potentials in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis surely requires some qualification. There may also be a few UK readers unaware that evoked potential recording in theatre costs 700 dollars per case. This is an excellent book, beautifully produced, and no department of clinical neurophysiology should be without one.

SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE PATIENTS

Background: Diseases of gastro-intestinal tract (GIT) are more prominent in our setup. Our life style is a significant risk factor for many diseases especially gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD). GERD is a disorder in which there is reflux of acid from stomach upwards to the esophagus more than twice per week. Objective of the study was to find out the socio-demographic characteristics of GERD, possible risk factors associated with this problem and to observe GERD patients in relation with disease occurrence and association with age, gender and area. Methods: This cross sectional descriptive study was conducted at Ayub teaching hospital, Abbottabad. The sample size was 300, selected by convenient non-probability technique. Data was collected through a questionnaire and then analyzed by using SPSS-23. Results: In our study, total number of patients were 300, out of which 164 (54.7%) were female, 106 (35.3%) were illiterate. Mean age was 35. 9Â±9.6 years, while mean BMI was 29. 49Â±4.8, occupational wise 100 (33.3%) people were unemployed. Frequency of GERD was higher in rural 172 (57.3%) areas, highest frequency was found in group of people who experienced heart burn 2â€“3 times/week. As far as the use of tobacco and its products is concerned 91 (30.3%) patients smoked it either as cigarette, cigar or Hookah, 110 (36.7%) patients lived a sedentary life. Out of total, 22 were using anticholinergic drugs while 12 have used in past. Regarding NSAIDS and other painkillers use 164 patients were using it, while 62 were also using antidepressants. Conclusion: The main determinants of GERD were found to be female gender, low socio-economic status, lack of education, high BMI, sedentary life style, lack of exercise, pregnancy, tobacco use, NSAIDs use and fatty and spicy foods.

Feature Extraction from Sketches of Objects

The automatic reconstruction of a 3D object from a sketch drawn as a line drawing has been very crucial research area since decades, especially in Computer-Aided Design and Computer Vision. Conventionally most of proposed methods have applied the technique of line labelling. However, generally this technique could be difficult for the reconstruction when the sketch includes many curves. In this paper, a method of reconstructing a 3D object as a solid model from a sketch by extracting features repeatedly is proposed. In the method, the sketches of cuboids, cylinders, holes and fillets are applied as features. In this paper, the algorithm of the method is explained in detail, and the effectiveness of the algorithm is explained by six examples that are difficult for conventional methods.
Police Officers Killed on Duty: A Different View

The policing profession is fraught with countless hazards, not the least of which is being killed in the line of duty. Although yearly data are collected by the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) pertaining to police officers killed and/or injured in the line of duty, the department has limited itself primarily to age, race/ethnicity, gender, length of service, modality of injury/death and location. In addition to these variables, the authors collected data that included whether the slain officers were married and had children. Analysis of the data suggested that officers with greater social investments (wife and children) were less likely to be killed, and that younger officers had a lower probability of being killed in the line of duty than did officers with more experience.

Propagación vegetativa de Pinus leiophylla Schiede Ex Schltdl. Et Cham.

In order to clone genotypes of a seed orchard of P. leiophylla with the better phenotypic characteristics and resistant putatively to Dendroctonus sp. and Toumeyella pinicola Ferris. , rooting cuttings, air layering and grafting for vegetative propagation of genotypes of interest was performed. With the first method cloning propagation was for the offspring, whereas the other methods were developed for progenitors. In the rooted cuttings the effect of substrate, type of cutting and indolebutyric acid (IBA) concentration was evaluated. Two types of substrate (100% of perlite vs. mix of peat, perlite, vermiculite 1:1:1), two types of cuttings (apical vs. basal) and two concentrations of IBA (0 vs. 10, 000 ppm). In air layering effect of four concentrations of IBA (0, 3000, 5000 and 10000 ppm) was evaluated, while the effect of the donor tree and type of scion were the factors considered in the graft. The rooted cuttings using basal cuttings is 3.5 times more likely to be induced rooting than by apical cutting; rooting percentage between the highest and lowest treatment response was 45.3 and 8.6 %, respectively. The use of perlite and implementation of IBA favored a greater number of roots. For air layering using concentrations of 3000, 5000 and 10000 ppm IBA is 1.6, 3.2 and 12 times more likely to be induced rooting with the concentration of 0 ppm. In propagation by grafting was not possible to perform a statistical analysis of the factors under study; environmental conditions and the quality of rootstocks limited engraftment.
Tobacco Smoking in Relation to the Phenotype of Alpha-1-Antitrypsin and Serum Vitamin C Concentration

Purpose: To investigate the effects of tobacco smoking on serum alpha-1-antitrypsin (AT) concentrations in relation to the Pi types of AT (MM and non-MM phenotypes) and vitamin C concentrations in the serum of Thai smokers and non-smokers. Design: Cross-sectional study of smokers and non-smokers in a military unit in Bangkok, Thailand. Materials and Methods: 123 male smokers and 66 male non-smokers were randomly selected from a military unit in Bangkok. Venous blood was analysed by rocket immunoelectrophoresis for AT concentrations. AT phenotype and vitamin C status were determined by iso-electrofocusing (IEF) and spectro-photometric methods. Co-variance analysis was used to determine whether smoking directly influences AT levels. Results: There were statistically significantly higher levels of serum AT and thiocyanate concentrations in smokers than in non-smokers. The thiocyanate level correlated with the duration and quantity of cigarette smoking. However, vitamin C, an antioxidant, was found with stati.
From Thought to Modality: A Theoretical Framework for Analysing Structural-Conceptual Metaphors and Image Metaphors in Film

Abstract (E): This article sets out to discuss the subject matter of conceptual metaphor in film. The first section provides the reader with a theoretical framework for analysing conceptual metaphor in film. In particular we want to shed light on the following questions: how can a metaphor be identified? What is the difference between a structural-conceptual metaphor and an image metaphor? What are the modes in which the metaphor can manifest itself? What is a visual metaphor and how does it differ from a filmic metaphor? In dealing with these questions, we shall offer the reader a classification of six features, which can be helpful to identify and interpret metaphor in film. In the second section we shall validate these considerations by subjecting them to an empirical discussion. We shall first analyse two examples of structural-conceptual metaphors in film, followed by a discussion of monomodal and multimodal manifestations of image metaphors. Finally, we shall demonstrate their interaction by showing how image metaphors can help activate other structural-conceptual metaphors. Abstract (F): Cet article concerne la metaphore conceptuelle au cinema. La premiere partie offre un cadre theorique pour analyser la metaphore conceptuelle. En particulier, nous cherchons a formuler des reponses aux questions suivantes : Comment la metaphore peut-elle etre identifiee ? Quelle est la difference entre une metaphore structurelle-conceptuelle et une metaphore imagee (en anglais : image metaphor ) ? Dans quels modes la metaphore peut-elle se manifester ? Qu'est-ce une metaphore visuelle et comment differe-t-elle d'une metaphore filmique ? En repondant a ces questions, nous offrirons au lecteur une taxinomie de six aspects qui peuvent etre utiles pour identifier et interpreter la metaphore au cinema. Dans la deuxieme partie nous appliquerons ces observations a une discussion empirique. Nous analyserons d'abord deux exemples de metaphores structurelles-conceptuelles au cinema, suivis par une discussion au sujet de versions monomodales et multimodales de metaphores imagees. Enfin, nous montrerons leur interaction en indiquant comment des metaphores imagees peuvent aider a activer d'autres metaphores structurelles-conceptuelles.
Aerobic Bacteriological Profile and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern in Postoperative Wound Infections at a Tertiary Care Hospital

Background: Postoperative wound infections are global problem in the field of surgery associated with long hospital stay, higher treatment expenditure, morbidity and mortality. The spectrum of infecting agents varies in each institution and same institution at different time points. Surveillance of surgical site infection with feedback of appropriate data to surgeons would be desirable to reduce surgical site infection rate. Hence we conducted this research to determine the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of aerobic bacteria in post surgical wound infected patients in ACS Medical College & Hospital, Chennai. Materials and Methods: Pus samples collected from the patients were processed using standard bacteriological methods to be used for bacterial isolation and Antimicrobial Susceptibility pattern. Results: Among the 102 pus samples, 61 (59.80%) had bacterial growth and in that 51(83.61%) were monomicrobial and 10(16.39%) were polymicrobial with a total of 73 bacterial isolates. Among the 73 bacterial isolates 33 (45.20%) were Gram positive cocci and 40 (54.80%) were Gram negative bacilli. The most common bacteria isolated was Staphylococcus aureus 19 (26.03%), followed by Escherichia coli 18 (24.65%) and Coagulase Negative Staphylococcus 11 (15.07%). Antibiotic susceptibility test of the isolates showed that Vancomycin (100%) and Linezolid (100%) followed by Amikacin (93.94%) were the most effective antibiotics for Gram positive bacteria and for Gram negative isolates Amikacin (85%), Cefaperazone-sulbactam (80%) and Gentamycin (77.5%) were found to be the most effective. Conclusion: Surveillance of the postoperative wound infection should be done in each and every hospital at regular intervals to evolve the control strategies and reduce the infection rate.
