Blind image quality assessment with hierarchy : degradation from local structure to deep semantics by Wu, Jinjian, Zeng, Jichen, Dong, Weisheng, Shi, Guangming, Lin, Weisi

“…By fusing the local structure and the deep semantics, a hierarchical feature set is acquired. Next, the correlations between the degradations of image qualities and their corresponding hierarchical feature sets are analyzed, and a novel hierarchical feature degradation (HFD) based BIQA (HFD-BIQA) method is built. …”

A new modeling framework for networked discrete-event systems by Tai, Ruochen, Lin, Liyong, Zhu, Yuting, Su, Rong

“…We construct a more elaborated model for the plant G and supervisor S by endowing them with an embedded module to preprocess the received messages and defining state transition mapping and output mapping to model the dynamics of G and S, which could provide users with flexibility to realize different mechanisms, and thus could potentially generate more permissive controllers. Two sets of new formulations are established to capture the temporal relationships between channel inputs and outputs without assuming the first-in-first-out (FIFO) property, which naturally contains the model without delays and losses in the Ramadge–Wonham framework. …”
