In recent years, vision-based object detection has made great progress across different fields. For instance, in the field of automobile manufacturing, welding detection is a key step of weld inspection in wheel production. The automatic detection and positioning of welded parts on wheels can improve the efficiency of wheel hub production. At present, there are few deep learning based methods to detect vehicle wheel welds. In this paper, a method based on YOLO v4 algorithm is proposed to detect vehicle wheel welds. The main contributions of the proposed method are the use of k-means to optimize anchor box size, a Distance-IoU loss to optimize the loss function of YOLO v4, and non-maximum suppression using Distance-IoU to eliminate redundant candidate bounding boxes. These steps improve detection accuracy. The experiments show that the improved methods can achieve high accuracy in vehicle wheel weld detection (4.92 % points higher than the baseline model with respect to AP75 and 2.75 % points higher with respect to AP50). We also evaluated the proposed method on the public KITTI dataset. The detection results show the improved method’s effectiveness.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data can be a good indicator of cell-to-cell heterogeneity and can help to study cell growth by identifying cell types. With advances in sequencing technology, single-cell RNA data are rapidly accumulating, and the large and complex data require new algorithms to extract the valid information contained in the integrated data. Deep learning has proven to be effective and innovative in processing complex data. Therefore, incorporating deep learning algorithms to study single-cell RNA data is a leading edge and hot topic of current research. Deep clustering is a combination of deep learning and conventional clustering, which trains embedding and clustering together to obtain the optimal embedding subspace for clustering, which is more effective compared to conventional clustering methods. In this paper, we introduce ScInfoVAE, a dimensional reduction method based on the mutual information variational autoencoder (InfoVAE), which can more effectively identify various cell types in scRNA-seq data of complex tissues. A joint InfoVAE deep model and zero-inflated negative binomial distributed model design based on ScInfoVAE reconstructs the objective function to noise scRNA-seq data and learn an efficient low-dimensional representation of it. We use ScInfoVAE to analyze the clustering performance of 15 real scRNA-seq datasets and demonstrate that our method provides high clustering performance. In addition, we use simulated data to investigate the interpretability of feature extraction, and visualization results show that the low-dimensional representation learned by ScInfoVAE retains local and global neighborhood structure data well.
