A Unified Framework for RGB-Infrared Transfer
Infrared(IR) images (both 0.7-3 µm and 8-15 µm) offer radiation intensity texture information that visible images lack, making them particularly helpful in daytime, nighttime, and complex scenes. Many researchers are studying how to translate RGB images into infrared images for deep learning-based visual tasks such as object tracking, crowd counting, panoramic segmentation, and image fusion in urban scenarios. The utilization of the RGB-IR dataset in the aforementioned tasks holds the potential to provide comprehensive multi-band fusion data for urban scenes, thereby facilitating precise modeling across different scenarios. In addressing the challenge of accurately generating high-radiance textures for the targets in the infrared spectrum, the proposed approach aims to ensure alignment between the generated infrared images and the radiation feature of ground-truth IR images.

Learning Individualized Hyperparameter Settings
The performance of optimization algorithms, and consequently of AI/machine learning solutions, is strongly influenced by the setting of their hyperparameters. Over the last decades, a rich literature has developed proposing methods to automatically determine the parameter setting for a problem of interest, aiming at either robust or instance-specific settings. Robust setting optimization is already a mature area of research, while instance-level setting is still in its infancy, with contributions mainly dealing with algorithm selection.

Artificial Intelligence and Photovoltaic Fault
The global transition to sustainable energy has positioned photovoltaic (PV) systems at the top of renewable energy solutions. Photovoltaic (PV) fault detection is crucial because undetected PV faults can lead to significant energy losses, with some cases experiencing losses of up to 10%. The efficiency of PV systems depends upon the reliable detection and diagnosis of faults. The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques has been a growing trend in addressing these issues.

Integration of Deep Learning into the IoT
The internet of things (IoT) has emerged as a pivotal technological paradigm facilitating interconnected and intelligent devices across multifarious domains. The proliferation of IoT devices has resulted in an unprecedented surge of data, presenting formidable challenges concerning efficient processing, meaningful analysis, and informed decision making. Deep-learning (DL) methodologies, notably convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and deep-belief networks (DBNs), have demonstrated significant efficacy in mitigating these challenges by furnishing robust tools for learning and extraction of insights from vast and diverse IoT-generated data.

Color Image Denoising Methods for Impulse Noise
One of the most critical tasks in computer vision applications is image denoising, which involves recovering an image from a degraded noisy version. Impulse noise in digital images is a random variation in the intensity of pixels caused by short-duration pulses of high energy. This type of noise can significantly degrade the quality of images and poses various challenges in real-world applications.

Deep Learning Methods of Small Object Detection
Remote sensing methodology has been increasingly applied in fields such as forest fire detection, iceberg detection, ship detection, floating object detection, and agriculture monitoring. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images can be used to construct two-dimensional images, which can be further reconstructed into multidimensional images if necessary. When the SAR focuses on the target application, such as biomass detection in the forest, ship detection in the ocean, and vehicle count on land, it comprises many small objects. Detecting these small images is less effortless than general object detection in typical images.

Building Footprint Extraction in Very-High-Resolution Remote Sensing Images
With the rapid development of very-high-resolution (VHR) remote-sensing technology, automatic identification and extraction of building footprints are significant for tracking urban development and evolution. Nevertheless, while VHR can more accurately characterize the details of buildings, it also inevitably enhances the background interference and noise information, which degrades the fine-grained detection of building footprints. In order to tackle the above issues, the attention mechanism is intensively exploited to provide a feasible solution. The attention mechanism is a computational intelligence technique inspired by the biological vision system capable of rapidly and automatically catching critical information.

Quantization Methods of Defense against Membership Inference Attacks
Machine learning deployment on edge devices has faced challenges such as computational costs and privacy issues. Membership inference attack (MIA) refers to the attack where the adversary aims to infer whether a data sample belongs to the training set. In other words, user data privacy might be compromised by MIA from a well-trained model. Therefore, it is vital to have defense mechanisms in place to protect training data, especially in privacy-sensitive applications such as healthcare.

Negotiation Protocol with Pre-Domain Narrowing
Consensus building among agents is crucial in multi-agent system because each agent acts independently according to its utility function, and conflict among agents can occur. Therefore, automated negotiation is an essential technology for efficiently resolving conflicts and forming consensuses while also keeping agents' privacy. As the domain to be negotiated is large, the computational cost of reaching a consensus increases and the agreement rate decreases. Some negotiation protocols have been proposed wherein a mediator collects the utility information of each agent and creates multiple alternatives of agreements to handle large-scale multi-issue negotiations. However, in such protocols, a limitation is placed on agents' privacy because all agents have to disclose their private information by following the mediator and predecided negotiation rules.
