DeepPick: A Deep Learning Approach to Unveil Outstanding Users Ranking with Public Attainable Features

Outstanding users (OUs) denote the influential, 'core' or 'bridge' users in online social networks. How to accurately detect and rank them is an important problem for third-party online service providers and researchers. Conventional efforts, ranging from early graph-based algorithms to recent machine learning-based approaches, typically rely on...

Robust Lane Detection Through Self Pre-Training With Masked Sequential Autoencoders and Fine-Tuning With Customized PolyLoss

Lane detection is crucial for vehicle localization which makes it the foundation for automated driving and many intelligent and advanced driving assistant systems. Available vision-based lane detection methods do not make full use of the valuable features and aggregate contextual information, especially the interrelationships between lane...

Adaptive neural sliding mode control for heterogeneous ship formation keeping considering uncertain dynamics and disturbances

This paper investigates the formation keeping problem of heterogeneous ships with underactuated inputs, uncertain dynamics, and environmental disturbances. The control objective is to make the heterogeneous followers keep the desired formation while tracking a leader. To solve the problem effectively, a novel virtual leader–follower formation...
