Improving the performance of one-shot face recognition by using data augmentation

For a past few years, the revolution of deep learning techniques has emerged and launched several state-of-the-art models, for instance, the breakthroughs of DeepFace and DeepID to face recognition in 2014. The face recognition in CCTV systems commonly encounters a few obstacles coming from practical conditions, such as ambient light, the diverse positions and angles of cameras, face masks, face poses, and so on. In addition, people who are monitored by the CCTV systems lack photos and typically have only one photo. These problems lead to face recognition reported with unstable performance and difficult to be successfully used in practice. To tackle these problems, this paper proposes an approach, namely ISE, to face augmentation which interpolates multiple samples from an original photo. Particularly, the samples produced by ISE contain real characteristics of cameras in the CCTV systems. By practically deploying a CCTV system at the Bach Khoa Dormitory, ISE indicates that it can boost the performance of face recognition up from 72%, 46% to 84%, 64% in daytime and day-and-nighttime, respectively.

Monitoring Browsing Behavior of Customers in Retail Stores via RFID Imaging

In this paper, we propose to use commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) monostatic RFID devices (i.e. which use a single antenna at a time for both transmitting and receiving RFID signals to and from the tags) to monitor browsing activity of customers in front of display items in places such as retail stores. To this end, we propose TagSee, a multi-person imaging system based on monostatic RFID imaging. TagSee is based on the insight that when customers are browsing the items on a shelf, they stand between the tags deployed along the boundaries of the shelf and the reader, which changes the multi-paths that the RFID signals travel along, and both the RSS and phase values of the RFID signals that the reader receives change. Based on these variations observed by the reader, TagSee constructs a coarse grained image of the customers. Afterwards, TagSee identifies the items that are being browsed by the customers by analyzing the constructed images. The key novelty of this paper is on achieving browsing behavior monitoring of multiple customers in front of display items by constructing coarse grained images via robust, analytical model-driven deep learning based, RFID imaging. To achieve this, we first mathematically formulate the problem of imaging humans using monostatic RFID devices and derive an approximate analytical imaging model that correlates the variations caused by human obstructions in the RFID signals. Based on this model, we then develop a deep learning framework to robustly image customers with high accuracy. We implement TagSee scheme using a Impinj Speedway R420 reader and SMARTRAC DogBone RFID tags. TagSee can achieve a TPR of more than ~90% and a FPR of less than ~10% in multi-person scenarios using training data from just 3-4 users.

Headmasters’ Attitudes Towards Career Management Opportunities for Pre-School Education Teachers

In an ever-changing world, the goals of education and the expectations of education policy makers, society and parents for the education system are also changing. Pre-school educational institutions need teachers with professional excellence and leadership skills who are constantly improving their competencies. In this context, the management of a teacher’s career is becoming a particularly important issue. In the management of a teacher’s career, not only the motivation of the teacher himself but also the role of the headmaster is very important in creating conditions and providing opportunities for the development of a teacher’s career. The article reveals the attitude of headmasters in pre-school educational institutions to the possibilities of pedagogue career management. It presents the results of qualitative research (interviews with headmasters in pre-school institutions), which revealed that headmasters understand the importance of teachers’ career management both for the teacher himself and for the quality of the institution’s activities. Some headmasters take care of a teacher’s career, creating conditions for improving competencies, and providing financial and psychological support. However, not all headmasters in pre-school institutions create favourable conditions for the development of a teacher’s career by delegating this function to the teacher himself.

High-Performance and Balanced Parallel Graph Coloring on Multicore Platforms

Abstract Graph coloring is widely used to parallelize scientific applications by identifying subsets of independent tasks that can be executed simultaneously. Graph coloring assigns colors the vertices of a graph, such that no adjacent vertices have the same color. The number of colors used corresponds to the number of parallel steps in a real-world end-application. Therefore, the total runtime of the graph coloring kernel adds to the overall parallel overhead of the real-world end-application, whereas the number of the vertices of each color class determines the number of the independent concurrent tasks of each parallel step, thus affecting the amount of parallelism and hardware resource utilization in the execution of the real-world end-application.In this work, we propose a high-performance graph coloring algorithm, named ColorTM, that leverages Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) to detect coloring inconsistencies between adjacent vertices. ColorTM detects and resolves coloring inconsistencies between adjacent vertices with an eager approach to minimize data access costs, and implements a speculative synchronization scheme to minimize synchronization costs and increase parallelism. We extend our proposed algorithmic design to propose a balanced graph coloring algorithm, named BalColorTM, with which all color classes include almost the same number of vertices to achieve high parallelism and resource utilization in the execution of the real-world end-applications.We evaluate ColorTM and BalColorTM using a wide variety of large real-world graphs with diverse characteristics. ColorTM and BalColorTM improve performance by 12.98x and 1.91x on average using 56 parallel threads compared to prior state-of-the-art approaches. Moreover, we study the impact of our proposed graph coloring algorithmic designs on a popular end-application, i.e., Community Detection, and demonstrate the ColorTM and BalColorTM can provide high performance improvements in real-world end-applications across various input data given.

TwinNet: A Symmetrically Structured Convolutional Architecture for Identifying Tibetan Characters

Abstract Although the Tibetan language is widely used, its intelligent application is seriously lagging behind. Most studies on character recognition have almost ignored minority languages like Tibetan. For the purpose of recognizing Tibetan characters, a convolutional architecture named TwinNet is proposed in this work. Specifically, two parallel convolutional sub-networks sharing the same parameters were firstly carefully designed and connected using an energy function, thus achieving Tibetan character recognition via one-shot verification task based on similarity metric. Second, a fuzzy c-means clustering module based on statistical laws of Tibetan characters was integrated into the pipeline of TwinNet, thus greatly reducing the search space at the recognition stage. Third, a Tibetan similar character dataset (TSCD) is constructed after sufficient amount of mining and analysis work, providing data support for training supervised models. The results of binary classification experiment demonstrate that TwinNet can differentiate the similar and dissimilar image pairs with a recall of 0.92, a precision of 0.89, an accuracy of 0.90, an F-1 score of 0.90 and a Kappa coefficient of 0.82. Furthermore, the consistency between the output TwinNet and the subjective evaluation by Tibetan-speaking volunteers is also evaluated. The experimental results support the idea that the similarity evaluation of Tibetan characters by TwinNet is highly consistent with that of humans, the indicator of SROCC, PLCC and RMSE are 0.68, 0.84 and 0.04, respectively. The results of character recognition experiments based on one-shot verification task show that the improved model with the integration of the fuzzy c-means clustering module has an average accuracy of 92% for regular characters and 80% for severely deformed characters.
PELATIHAN PEMBUATAN MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN MENGGUNAKAN CANVA UNTUK GURU DI SMKN 2 PINGGIR

SMK teachers as professional educators who act as facilitators in learning find innovations to find potential sources and learning media in the environment so that they can teach their students effectively. In order to become good facilitators, vocational school teachers are expected to be able to equip themselves with insight and skills in developing design and making learning media so that teachers can ensure good games. The reality shows that the teachers of SMKN 2 Pinggir in general have difficulty in improving the quality and effectiveness of learning at SMKN 2 Pinggir. This situation is due to the lack of buffer facilities and infrastructure that support the activity and enjoyment of students in learning and also because teachers do not yet have adequate insight and skills to make learning media that is fun for children. Therefore, the Service Team for the Faculty of Computer Science, University of Lancang Kuning provided Training on Making Learning Media Using Canva for Teachers at SMKN 2 Pinggir with the hope of increasing the effectiveness and quality of the learning process at SMKN 2 which will ultimately support the achievement of educational goals.

Influence of Methods of Nanomaterial Testing on Product Supply and an IoT-Based Solution for Making a Perfect Choice

Human ear is equivalent to nanomaterials as it has nonporous membrane which decides the hearing ability. The water content and its movements in that tectorial gel membrane are controlled by nanoscale pores. Apart from many disease threats and the age and other issue-related disabling hearing impairment, loss of sensitiveness of nanomaterial, namely, nanopored tectorial gel membrane, is a serious issue. Appropriate supplement must be provided to compensate age-related hearing loss by measuring some innovation methods. The test for hearing loss and cost of hearing aid are another threat. Many studies reported that people do not feel comfortable with their hearing aid and avoided to use it after purchase. The telephonic survey was conducted at Tamil Nadu, India region, which discloses that the hearing aid center is doing continuous motivation over the phone to wear hearing aid after purchase; many people do not turn back for even battery purchase. Very rare people report for free service too. This piece of research is aimed at analysing the root cause of not wearing hearing aid and addressing various possibilities to support them with IoT-based solution requirement to discard this issue. The two kinds of test were conducted for the same patient, and hearing aid was provided to give supplement to compensate sensitiveness loss of tectorial gel membrane. Their effectiveness was measured and analysed scientifically. The Taguchi method was incorporated to formulate the experiments with the natural cases like age, gender, and method of testing the nanomaterial, namely, nanopored tectorial gel membrane sensitiveness (hearing loss/or hearing ability) and existing nature of sensitiveness (severe loss and minor loss) at 2 levels. The observations were analysed with Taguchi analysis and discussed. An integrated solution of IOT-based measuring system was discussed to rid the issues.
