The main environmental factors that interfere with asphalt pavement crack detection include shadows from ambient light of different intensities, trees, signboards, railings, etc. Traditional crack detection methods usually eliminate the effect of light during pre-processing or improve the recognition results by local consistency and light normalization during image segmentation. However, the current methods can only improve the image brightness uniformity and cannot completely eliminate the effect of light, so the usual methods are only effective when the image brightness uniformity is good. So, this study puts out an approach to improving images. Machine learning is used to suggest a method for detecting cracks in asphalt pavement, with the help of an attention mechanism, using photos of real roads as the experimental dataset. Experiments show that the method can preprocess image data well and enhance the robustness of training in machine learning structures. Test results show that our method can be well applied to practical testing work.
Recommender system is widely used in various fields for dealing with information overload effectively, and collaborative filtering plays a vital role in the system. However, recommender system suffers from its vulnerabilities by malicious attacks significantly, especially, shilling attacks because of the open nature of recommender system and the dependence on data. Therefore, detecting shilling attack has become an important issue to ensure the security of recommender system. Most of the existing methods of detecting shilling attack are based on user ratings, and one limitation is that they are likely to be interfered by obfuscation techniques. Moreover, traditional detection algorithms cannot handle different types of shilling attacks flexibly. In order to solve the problems, we proposed an outlier degree shilling attack detection algorithm by using dynamic feature selection. Considering the differences when users choose items, we combined rating-based indicators with user popularity, and utilized the information entropy to select detection indicators dynamically. Therefore, a variety of shilling attack models can be dealt with flexibility in this way. The experiments show that the proposed algorithm can achieve better detection performance and interference immunity.
