Cascaded algorithm for background modeling using pixel-based and block-based methods by Wen-hua XIE, Ben-shun YI, Jin-sheng XIAO, Liang-cai GAN

“…Block-based background modeling couldn't obtain the exact shape of foreground,while pixel-based approaches couldn't handle non-stationary backgrounds effectively.To solve the problem,a hierarchical scheme for background modeling was presented.The hierarchical model used block-based method proposed to obtain coarse background and foreground regions firstly,and then the operations of pixel-level foreground refining and model updating based on Gaussian mixture model were performed on special regions of the input image.These two algorithms in different levels were combined by adopting an asymmetric feed-forward strategy.Experimental results show that the hierarchical method proposed can obtain the exact shape of foreground and process non-stationary scenes well,in addition,it is insensitive to illumination change and can provide better results than any single approach in it,meanwhile,the integrated computation time is shorter than the sum of those of running the block and pixel-level methods,and satisfies real-time processing.…”

Naturalisierung im deutsch-jüdischen Spannungsfeld by Avraham Rot

“…While Spinoza’s philosophy is fundamentally at odds with the conception of art as irrational, acausal, and transcendent, an idea running through all of Benn’s works, Benn nevertheless positively invoked the Romantic neo-Spinozist concept of nature ‘hen kai pan’ (One and All) and praised Goethe as a Spinozist natural scientist, one who had endorsed Spinoza’s doctrine of monism while adding “nuance”. …”

A complex network traffic prediction method for IP network expansion applications by Yong GAO, Qianchun LU, Feng LI

“…IP network expansion is a common maintenance method for communication operators to keep the network running smoothly.The core is to predict the network traffic trend in the future period.IP network traffic is very complex, with local uncertainty, burstiness, heterogeneity, etc., which brings difficulties to prediction.A prediction method for complex network traffic was proposed.It adopted an encode-decode structure, adding global features to the encoding layer, and combining global features and local features in the decoding layer to solve local uncertainties.The model used sample balance, normalization and other methods to extract the commonality of the data as much as possible to avoid the heterogeneity of the data.And emergencies were alleviated by increasing prior knowledge.The overall model had fewer parameters and had strong generalization performance, at the same time, the combination of artificial features and automatic features ensured the accuracy of the shallow network.The experimental results show that the proposed method has the characteristics of high accuracy and strong generalization performance.At present, this method has been applied on a large scale in engineering.…”
