Antennal sensilla were compared in parthenogenetic females and bisexual adults of rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel (coleoptera: curculionidae), using scanning electron micrographs. the antenna of parthenogenetic females and of both sexes of bisexual reproductive weevils consisted of the scape, pedicel, and 6 flagellar segments. females, regardless of mode of reproduction, ha...

Human Systems Integration is a comprehensive management and technical approach for addressing the human element in weapon system development and acquisition. The primary objective of human systems integration is to integrate the human as a critical system element, regardless of whether humans in the system function as individuals, teams, or organizations. This discipline seeks to treat humans a...

With the development of HyperSpectral Imagery (HSI) technology, the spectral resolution of HSI became denser, which resulted in large number of spectral bands, high correlation between neighboring, and high data redundancy. However, the semantic interpretation is a challenging task for HSI analysis due to the high dimensionality and the high correlation of the different spectral bands. In fact,...

Hyperspectral remote sensing has been used in many fields, such as agriculture, military detection and mineral exploration. Hyperspectral image (HSI), despite its high spectral resolution, has lower spatial resolution than panchromatic image (PI). Therefore, it is useful yet still challenging to effectively fuse HSI and PI to obtain images with both high spectral resolution and high spatial res...

Recent research has shown that using spectral–spatial information can considerably improve the performance of hyperspectral image (HSI) classification. HSI data is typically presented in the format of 3D cubes. Thus, 3D spatial filtering naturally offers a simple and effective method for simultaneously extracting the spectral–spatial features within such images. In this paper, a 3D convolutiona...

Human Systems Integration (HSI) is the collection of interdisciplinary technical and management processes for integrating human considerations within and across all system elements. This discipline seeks to treat humans as equally important to system design as are other system elements, such as hardware and software. HSI has been defined by many stakeholders, particularly government agencies th...

As a new machine learning approach, the extreme learning machine (ELM) has received much attention due to its good performance. However, when directly applied to hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, the recognition rate is low. This is because ELM does not use spatial information, which is very important for HSI classification. In view of this, this paper proposes a new framework for the s...

INTRODUCTION High quality sputum helps increase the sensitivity of the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficiency of the acoustic device (Lung Flute; LF) in sputum induction compared with the conventional method, hypertonic saline inhalation (HSI). METHODS In this crossover study, patients with presumed pulmonary tuberculosis submitted 3 consecutive sputa: th...

Classification of hyperspectral image (HSI) is an important research topic in the remote sensing community. Significant efforts (e.g., deep learning) have been concentrated on this task. However, it is still an open issue to classify the high-dimensional HSI with a limited number of training samples. In this paper, we propose a semi-supervised HSI classification method inspired by the generativ...

This paper addresses the problem of contextual hyperspectral image (HSI) classification. A novel conditional random fields (CRFs) model, known as higher order support vector random fields (HSVRFs), is proposed for HSI classification. By incorporating higher order potentials into a support vector random fields with a Mahalanobis distance boundary constraint (SVRFMC) model, the HSVRFs model not o...
