Retrieval Geometry Shapes Cache-Based Clip Adaptation

Cache-based test-time adaptation improves CLIP predictions by storing and retrieving examples from the target stream while keeping the model frozen. However, existing methods largely treat the feature space used for image-image retrieval as fixed, leaving open how much adaptation depends on the retrieval space itself. We study this question by fixing the memory and changing only the retrieval encoder, finding that the same memory can yield very different gains: across sixteen retrieval spaces, ImageNet-A cache gain ranges from at most +0.44 points for CLIP and MAE to +19.7 +/- 0.4 for DINOv2-L, while label-free retrieval-space selection retains 98% of oracle gain on ImageNet-V2. These results show that memory quality depends not only on which examples are stored, but also on how they are retrieved. Motivated by this finding, we propose MARC (Memory Augmented Retrieval for CLIP), a training-free system that uses frozen CLIP for prediction and DINOv2-B for retrieval with a single fusion weight. A single-view cache repairs 1074 +/- 21 baseline errors, compared with 878 +/- 4 for a 64-view ensemble, at roughly one seventh of the cost. Across four ImageNet distribution shifts, MARC reaches a 67.91% OOD average and, at matched DINOv2-B scale and eight views, achieves 64.17 +/- 0.31% versus 62.75 +/- 0.15% for a graph-based cache system while running 2.6 times faster. Overall, our results establish retrieval space as a first-order design choice for robust cache-based adaptation in remote sensing, scientific imaging, and changing visual environments.

MGAN-CRCM: A Novel Multiple Generative Adversarial Network and Coarse-Refinement Based Cognizant Method for Image Inpainting

Image inpainting is a widely used technique in computer vision for reconstructing missing or damaged pixels in images. Recent advancements with Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have demonstrated superior performance over traditional methods due to their deep learning capabilities and adaptability across diverse image domains. Residual Networks (ResNet) have also gained prominence for their ability to enhance feature representation and compatibility with other architectures. This paper introduces a novel architecture combining GAN and ResNet models to improve image inpainting outcomes. Our framework integrates three components: Transpose Convolution-based GAN for guided and blind inpainting, Fast ResNet-Convolutional Neural Network (FR-CNN) for object removal, and Co-Modulation GAN (Co-Mod GAN) for refinement. The model's performance was evaluated on benchmark datasets, achieving accuracies of 96.59% on Image-Net, 96.70% on Places2, and 96.16% on CelebA. Comparative analyses demonstrate that the proposed architecture outperforms existing methods, highlighting its effectiveness in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations.

A Dependable Hybrid Machine Learning Model for Network Intrusion Detection

Network intrusion detection systems (NIDSs) play an important role in computer network security. There are several detection mechanisms where anomaly-based automated detection outperforms others significantly. Amid the sophistication and growing number of attacks, dealing with large amounts of data is a recognized issue in the development of anomaly-based NIDS. However, do current models meet the needs of today's networks in terms of required accuracy and dependability? In this research, we propose a new hybrid model that combines machine learning and deep learning to increase detection rates while securing dependability. Our proposed method ensures efficient pre-processing by combining SMOTE for data balancing and XGBoost for feature selection. We compared our developed method to various machine learning and deep learning algorithms to find a more efficient algorithm to implement in the pipeline. Furthermore, we chose the most effective model for network intrusion based on a set of benchmarked performance analysis criteria. Our method produces excellent results when tested on two datasets, KDDCUP'99 and CIC-MalMem-2022, with an accuracy of 99.99% and 100% for KDDCUP'99 and CIC-MalMem-2022, respectively, and no overfitting or Type-1 and Type-2 issues.

Image denoising and restoration with CNN-LSTM Encoder Decoder with Direct Attention

Image denoising is always a challenging task in the field of computer vision and image processing. In this paper, we have proposed an encoder-decoder model with direct attention, which is capable of denoising and reconstruct highly corrupted images. Our model consists of an encoder and a decoder, where the encoder is a convolutional neural network and decoder is a multilayer Long Short-Term memory network. In the proposed model, the encoder reads an image and catches the abstraction of that image in a vector, where decoder takes that vector as well as the corrupted image to reconstruct a clean image. We have trained our model on MNIST handwritten digit database after making lower half of every image as black as well as adding noise top of that. After a massive destruction of the images where it is hard for a human to understand the content of those images, our model can retrieve that image with minimal error. Our proposed model has been compared with convolutional encoder-decoder, where our model has performed better at generating missing part of the images than convolutional autoencoder.
