Multi-scale guided filtering integrated with superpixel and patch shift by Jianwu LONG, Jiangzhou ZHU

“…In order to avoid the phenomenon that edges were easily blurred during filtering, a multi-scale guided filtering integrated with superpixel and patch shift was proposed.Firstly, the bilateral filtering was applied to an input image to get more accurate superpixel regions.Then, the overlapping was used as the final filtering region, which was formed by the local window and the superpixel.The local window was selected by a metric function so that it did not contain edge information as much as possible.Finally, a small-scale window was used to preserve the edges, and then the window scale was increased for iterative guided filtering.The final filtering output was calculated by fusing the results of different window scales to smooth details while preserving the structural edges.Additionally, the evaluation index of filtering results quality was proposed and compared in different algorithms.The proposed algorithm has stronger edge preservation ability and can obtain better filtering effectiveness than other algorithms.…”

LEO satellite constellation design with multi-QoS guarantee for non-terrestrial network by Ruyan WANG, Xianyi YE, Peng HE, Yaping CUI, Dapeng WU, Fedotov Alexander

“…LEO satellite constellation (LSC) offers seamless and fast connectivity for non-terrestrial network (NTN).However, the lack of QoS guarantees for users significantly impacts the performance of the NTN system.Considering multi-QoS metrics, a capacity and downlink budget model for LSC was established, and subsequently, the establishment of inter-satellite links was framed as a link budget issue for the QoS guarantee.The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (INSGA-II) with improved crossover and mutation operators was proposed to optimize LSC, aiming to maximize coverage and system capacity while minimizing constellation costs.The numerical results demonstrate that the designed LSC exhibits comparable or superior performance to Telesat and Kepler, and its scale is only 64% of the Kepler system.…”
