Abstract

Dust in agriculture presents a significant challenge for autonomous agricultural machinery. Dust can impair the performance of sensors and algorithms. This work, therefore, presents a concept for a proving ground consisting of an indoor and outdoor area. The indoor area comprises a laboratory test bench where dust circulates in a closed system and a test hall where life-size objects can be placed. The outdoor area features dedicated test setups that enable reproducible data to be recorded with and without dust during real-world agriculture work. The proving ground and the setups are visualized in 3D.

Stochastic Optimization of Tree Tensor Networks

Tensor networks, originally developed for quantum many-body physics, are promising models for machine learning. We derive stochastic Riemannian optimizers for tree tensor networks (TTNs) on both their parameter and quotient manifolds, including adaptive and learning-rate-free schemes suitable for minibatch training. Using a hybrid CNN-TTN architecture, we evaluate the methods on Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR10, and Imagenette. The proposed optimizers achieve predictive performance comparable to unconstrained optimization while enabling numerically stable downstream compression.

Can We Change the Stroke Size for Easier Diffusion?

Diffusion models can be challenged in the low signal-to-noise regime, where they have to make pixel-level predictions despite the presence of high noise. The geometric intuition is akin to using the finest stroke for oil painting throughout, which may be ineffective. We therefore study \emph{stroke-size control} as a controlled intervention that changes the roughness of the supervised target, predictions and perturbations across timesteps, in an attempt to ease the low signal-to-noise challenge via the prediction target simplification.

Texture Image Classification Using DWT AlexNet Feature Fusion and Deep Neural Networks

Texture image classification plays a significant role in computer vision applications, including industrial inspection, medical image analysis, remote sensing, and object recognition. Handcrafted features can capture local texture characteristics but may have limited capability to represent complex visual patterns. In contrast, deep learning models automatically learn discriminative representations but may not fully exploit the multiscale spatial-frequency information inherent in texture images. This paper proposes a hybrid feature fusion framework, termed DWT_AlexNet_DNN, which combines Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) features with deep features extracted using AlexNet for texture image classification.
