Abstract: A metro rail corrugation measurement method based the Seq2Seq model and vibration and noise data fusion comprises the following steps: Constructing a time series data set corresponding to floor longitudinal acceleration and train speed based on historical data of metro trains; Constructing the metro train mileage matching prediction model based on the Seq2Seq model, training the metro train mileage matching prediction model by time series data sets, and inputting the inside floor longitudinal acceleration of the metro train to be detected into the trained metro train mileage matching prediction model to obtain the running speed of the metro train to be detected. According to the vibration and noise data of the metro train to be detected, the vibration and noise composite index of the rail corrugation is calculated to determine the wavelength and amplitude information corresponding to the rail corrugation.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods to perform colour extraction from swatch images and to define new images using extracted colours. Source images may be classified using a deep learning net (e.g. a CNN) to indicate colour representation strength and drive colour extraction. A clustering classifier is trained to use feature vectors extracted by the net. Separately, pixel clustering is useful when extracting the colour. Cluster count can vary according to classification. In another manner, heuristics (with or without classification) are useful when extracting. Resultant clusters are evaluated against a set of (ordered) expected colours to determine a match. Instances of standardized swatch images may be defined from a template swatch image and respective extracted colours using image processing. The extracted colour may be presented in an augmented reality GUI such as a virtual try-on application and applied to a user image such as a selfie using image processing.

Abstract: Systems, methods and techniques provide for acne localization, counting and visualization. An image is processed using a trained model to identify objects. The model may be a deep learning (e.g. convolutional neural) network configured for object classification with a detection focus on small objects. The image may be a frontal or profile facial image, processed end to end. The model identifies and localizes different types of acne. Instances are counted and visualized such as by annotating the source image. An example annotation is an overlay identifying a type and location of each instance. Counts by acne type assist with scoring. A product and/or service may be recommended in response to the identification of the acne (e.g. the type, localization, counting and/or a score).
