The traditional Mayfly algorithm for UAV path planning has the problems of poor stability, low accuracy, slow convergence speed and local optimization.To solve the problems, a multi-strategy improved Mayfly algorithm applied to UAV path planning is proposed.Firstly, the cost function model and the environment model are established, and the UAV path planning problem is transformed into an optimization problem that meets the feasible route requirements and the route safety constraints.Secondly, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is initialized based on Lévy flight principle, and the traditional Mayfly algorithm is improved by using adaptive t-distribution and Pareto-based elite retention strategy.Finally, the validity of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation experiment.The simulation results show that the performance of the improved Mayfly algorithm is better than that of the traditional Mayfly algorithm and the particle swarm optimization, and the quality of the planned trajectory is higher.

    Object detection is decoupled into two subtasks, namely, classification and localization, in mainstream detectors. Each task possesses a separate detection subnetwork and is trained with an independent loss function. In this way, the correlation between classification and localization is disregarded, and thus the classification score predicted by the model is not capable of representing the localization quality of the prediction box. Consequently, predictions of high localization quality may be suppressed by their poorly localized counterparts in the procedure of Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS), inducing precision degradation. To tackle this problem, a consistency loss is proposed to constrain the rank similarity between the classification score predicted by the model and the localization quality in training process to reinforce about their consistency. Based on FCOS-ResNet50 model and PASCAL VOC dataset, the proposed loss function brings about 1.3 percentage points of mAP0.5, 4.3 percentage points of mAP75, and 5.4 percentage points of mAP90 improvements.

    In practical applications of image recognition, the training data tend to follow a long-tailed class distribution without regard to manual balancing.The recognition effect of long-tailed image recognition algorithms based on deep learning is not good, and the recognition accuracy of middle and tail categories is unsatisfactory.In order to address the problems, a Personalized Multi-expert Recognition Algorithm (PMRA) is proposed.Firstly, a multi-expert network is constructed by integrating multiple branches based on the residual network.Then, a personalized learning module is built by assigning personalized training data to different experts to improve the recognition accuracy of middle and tail categories, and a personalized information enhancement module is built by fusing the experts information to deal with the lack of information of middle and tail categories.In the multi-expert network fusing multiple modules, the overall recognition accuracy of long-tailed images is improved by two stages of learning.Finally, the experimental results on benchmark datasets of CIFAR-10-LT, CIFAR-100-LT, ImageNet-LT and iNaturalist2018 show that the recognition accuracy of the proposed algorithm on multiple datasets is better than that of other algorithms.

    Image compressive sensing is a technology that reconstructs the original image as far as possible under the condition of under-sampling.Most of the image compressive sensing methods based on the framework of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) are prone to be limited by the receptive field of convolution and pay less attention to global information.To solve the problem, an image reconstruction network using compressive sensing based on Swin Transformer is proposed.The network uses the convolutional layer for image sampling, and then uses the structure of Residual Swin Transformer Group (RSTG), which combines the self-attention mechanism with the residual structure, to focus on the details of the image.The experimental results show that the image reconstruction network using compressive sensing based on Swin Transformer can make full use of the prior information of the image, further improve the image reconstruction accuracy of compressive sensing, and obtain better reconstruction performance and visual effects than that of other compressive sensing methods.

    During the pursuit and evasion process on the battlefield, the fighter aircraft needs to complete super-maneuver actions to quickly enter the dominant attack area.However, in the range of large angle-of-attack flight, the flight process is strongly coupled.Traditional dynamic inversion methods have good fast decoupling capability, but the robustness is poor.An L1 adaptive flight control method based on nonlinear dynamic inversion is proposed, which improves the dynamic performance and robustness of the system by introducing PI-type dynamic inversion control and L1 adaptive structure.Finally, a certain software is used to simulate the cobra maneuver of the fighter aircraft, and the results show that besides improving the dynamic performance of the system, the method can effectively compensate for such perturbations as parameter uncertainty and improve the robustness, which provides a technical reference for air combat of the fighter aircraft.
