Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the rapid development of the Internet of things, cloud computing, neural networks and other technologies, information technology and political, economic, military, scientific research, life and other fields continue to cross-integrate, which has generated huge amounts of data beyond any previous era. Various websites, applications, mobile devices, etc., in different fields around the world are generating huge data traffic at all times, which has spurred and promoted the development of related industries relying on data, and has also presented severe challenges for data analysis and processing. In this regard, the intelligent analysis and processing of Big Data has become a research hotspot. Meanwhile, by combining computer science, data analytics, and biology, bioinformatics plays an increasingly important role in improving population health and advancing the healthcare industry. It is a great motivating force for biomedical engineering in the information age as it transforms accumulated data into information and knowledge by deeply mining the biological meaning of massive biomedical information. The Special Issue will publish the latest innovative and high-standard scientific research outcomes with sufficient scientific value in intelligent Big Data processing. These research outcomes describe the scientific research process, progress, and effects; discuss key technologies and problems in the research process; and explain the innovation and feasibility of the results.

Waste segregation, management, transportation, and disposal must be carefully managed to reduce the danger to patients, the public, and risks to the environment’s health and safety. The previous method of monitoring trash in strategically placed garbage bins is a time-consuming and inefficient method that wastes time, human effort, and money, and is also incompatible with smart city needs. So, the goal is to reduce individual decision-making and increase the productivity of the waste categorization process. Using a convolutional neural network (CNN), the study sought to create an image classifier that recognizes items and classifies trash material. This paper provides an overview of trash monitoring methods, garbage disposal strategies, and the technology used in establishing a waste management system. Finally, an efficient system and waste disposal approach is provided that may be employed in the future to improve performance and cost effectiveness. One of the most significant barriers to efficient waste management can now be overcome with the aid of a deep learning technique. The proposed method outperformed the alternative AlexNet, VGG16, and ResNet34 methods. Full article

Extracting gait biometrics from videos has been receiving rocketing attention given its applications, such as person re-identification. Although deep learning arises as a promising solution to improve the accuracy of most gait recognition algorithms, the lack of enough training data becomes a bottleneck. One of the solutions to address data deficiency is to generate synthetic data. However, gait data synthesis is particularly challenging as the inter-subject and intra-subject variations of walking style need to be carefully balanced. In this paper, we propose a complete 3D framework to synthesize unlimited, realistic, and diverse motion data. In addition to walking speed and lighting conditions, we emphasize two key factors: 3D gait motion style and character appearance. Benefiting from its 3D nature, our system can provide various gait-related data, such as accelerometer data and depth map, not limited to silhouettes. We conducted various experiments using the off-the-shelf gait recognition algorithm and draw the following conclusions: (1) the real-to-virtual gap can be closed when adding a small portion of real-world data to a synthetically trained recognizer; (2) the amount of real training data needed to train competitive gait recognition systems can be reduced significantly; (3) the rich variations in gait data are helpful for investigating algorithm performance under different conditions. The synthetic data generator, as well as all experiments, will be made publicly available. Full article
