Surveillance videos taken in unconstrained environments can be tampered with due to different environmental factors and malicious human activities. They often blur the video content and introduce difficulty in identifying the events in the scene. The problem is particularly acute for smart surveillance systems that need to make real-time decisions based on the video. Automatic detection of the blur anomalies in the video is crucial to these systems. In this research, a learning-based approach for camera blur detection is proposed.

This study proposes a more competitive and sample-efficient algorithm: Memory-GIC-PPO, specifically to address POMDPs in UAV path planning. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is thoroughly evaluated through simulations conducted on the Airsim platform. The results convincingly demonstrate that Memory-GIC-PPO enables the UAV to achieve optimal path planning in complex environments and outperforms the benchmark algorithms in terms of sampling efficiency and success rates.

The accurate placement of a needle into the spinal column is critical for spinal anesthesia, spinal taps, and other spinal procedures. Currently, the insertion of the needle is guided by visual and palpation feedback, which can be limited in accuracy and reliability. This study presents a novel approach    to providing tactile feedback during needle insertion into the spinal column. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness    of providing feedback during the insertion of a needle into the epidural column.

In agriculture, the development of early treatment techniques for plant leaf diseases can be significantly enhanced by employing precise and rapid automatic detection methods. Within this realm of research, two common scenarios encountered in real field cases are the identification of different severity stages of diseases and the detection of multiple pathogens simultaneously affecting a single plant leaf. One major challenge faced in this area is the lack of publicly available datasets that contain images captured under these specific conditions.

AndalUnmixingRGB is a Sentinel-2 satellite digital RGB imagery enriched with environmental ancillary data and designed for blind spectral unmixing using deep learning. Generally, spectral unmixing involves two main tasks: spectral signature identification of different available land use/cover types in the analyzed hyperspectral or multispectral imagery (endmember identification task) and their respective proportions measurement (abundance estimation task).

Conversion loss modeling plays a crucial role in hybrid AC/DC microgrid (MG) energy management (EM). However, accurate calculation of the conversion losses is often very costly. Additionally, existing surrogate models typically rely on fixed-voltage DC buses, leading to excessive voltage magnitudes. To overcome these limitations, we propose surrogate models based on piecewise linear neural networks (NNs) that estimate conversion losses using converter power and variable-voltage DC buses.
