Image recognition and classification is a significant research topic in computational vision and widely used computer technology. Themethods often used in image classification and recognition tasks are based on deep learning, like Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs), LeNet, and Long Short-Term Memory networks (LSTM). Unfortunately, the classification accuracy of these methods isunsatisfactory. In recent years, using large-scale deep learning networks to achieve image recognition and classification canimprove classification accuracy, such as VGG16 and Residual Network (ResNet). However, due to the deep network hierarchyand complex parameter settings, these models take more time in the training phase, especially when the sample number is small, which can easily lead to overfitting. This paper suggested a deep learning-based image classification technique based on a CNN model and improved convolutional and pooling layers. Furthermore, the study adopted the approximate dynamic learning rate update algorithm in the model training to realize the learning rate’s self-adaptation, ensure the model’s rapid convergence, and shorten the training time. Using the proposed model, an experiment was conducted on the Fashion-MNIST dataset, taking 6,000 images as the training dataset and 1,000 images as the testing dataset. In actual experiments, the classification accuracy of the suggested method was 93 percent, 4.6 percent higher than that of the basic CNN model. Simultaneously, the study compared the influence of the batch size of model training on classification accuracy. Experimental outcomes showed this model is very generalized in fashion clothing image classification tasks.

A Meta-analysis is a statistical literature synthesis method that provides the opportunity to view the research context by combining and analyzing the quantitative results of many empirical studies. We conducted a Meta-analysis research on the behavioral intention of information technology based on the theory of planned behavior. This study was targeted a total of 36 research papers that are setting up the causal relationship in the theory of planned behavior among the research papers published in domestic academic journals before 2013. The result of the Meta-analysis, showed that the effect size was 0.571 in the path from attitude toward behavior to behavioral intention, it showed that the effect size was 0.381 in the path from subjective norm to behavioral intention. And, it showed that the effect size was 0.481 in the path from perceived behavioral control to behavioral Intention. Also, it showed that the effect size was 0.421 in the path from behavioral Intention to behavior.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have famously been applied in various ordinary duties. However, DNNs are sensitive to adversarial attacks which, by adding imperceptible perturbation samples to an original image, can easily alter the output. In state-of-the-art white-box attack methods, perturbation samples can successfully fool DNNs through the network gradient. In addition, they generate perturbation samples by only considering the sign information of the gradient and by dropping the magnitude. Accordingly, gradients of different magnitudes may adopt the same sign to construct perturbation samples, resulting in inefficiency. Unfortunately, it is often impractical to acquire the gradient in real-world scenarios. Consequently, we propose a self-adaptive approximated-gradient-simulation method for black-box adversarial attacks (SAGM) to generate efficient perturbation samples. Our proposed method uses knowledge-based differential evolution to simulate gradients and the self-adaptive momentum gradient to generate adversarial samples. To estimate the efficiency of the proposed SAGM, a series of experiments were carried out on two datasets, namely MNIST and CIFAR-10. Compared to state-of-the-art attack techniques, our proposed method can quickly and efficiently search for perturbation samples to misclassify the original samples. The results reveal that the SAGM is an effective and efficient technique for generating perturbation samples.

Abstract. We present a newly developed algorithm for automatically segmenting videos into basic shot units. A basic shot unit can be understood as an unbroken sequence of frames taken from one camera. At first we calculate the frame difference by using the local histogram comparison, and then we dynamically scale the frame difference by Log-formula to compress and enhance the frame difference. Finally we detect the shot boundaries by the newly proposed shot boundary detection algorithm which it is more robust to camera or object motion, and many flashlight events. The proposed algorithms are tested on the various video types and experimental results show that the proposed algorithm are effective and reliably detects shot boundaries.
