PCB defect detection aims to identify the presence of gaps, open circuits, short circuits, and other defects in the PCB boards produced in the industry. Designing effective deep learning algorithms is crucial to finding a solution. Previously proposed PCB defect detection algorithms are limited in detecting tiny objects in high-density. Directly applying previous models to tackle PCB defect detection tasks will cause serious issues, such as missed detection and false detection. In this paper, we present a detection algorithm for tiny PCB defect targets in high-density regions to solve the above-mentioned problems. We firstly propose a detection head to detect tiny objects. Then, we design a four-channel feature fusion mechanism to fuse four different scale features and add an attention mechanism to find the attention region in scenarios with dense objects. Finally, we achieved accurate detection of tiny targets in high-density areas. Experiments were performed on the publicly available PCB defect dataset from Peking University. Our mAP@.5:.95 achieves 48.6%, while mAP@0.5 exceeds 90%. Compared with YOLOX and YOLOv5, our improved model can better localize tiny objects in high-density scenes. The experimental results certify that our model can obtain higher performance in comparison with the baseline and the state of the art. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The use of command and control (C2) servers in cyberattacks has risen considerably, attackers frequently employ the domain generated algorithm (DGA) technique to conceal their C2 servers. Various machine learning models have been suggested for binary identification of domain names as either benign or DGA domain. The Existing techniques are inefficient and have real-time detection issues and are also very data hypersensitive, therefore, they can be circumvented by the attackers. The main problem this article addresses is how to automatically detect DGA in a way that does not rely solely on reverse engineering, not strongly affected by data size, and allows detection of this DGA in real time. This paper presents DTFS-DGA model that combine neural networks models with traditional machine learning models and maintains its performance even if the data size changes to detect DGA in real time. The model uses 15 linguistics and networks features with the features extracted by long short-term memory and convolutional neural network to classify domain names using random forest and support vector machines. The comprehensive experimental findings confirm the suggested model's accuracy. To be precise, the model achieve an average accuracy of 99.8 % for the classification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Detecting vehicle at night is critical to both assistant driving systems and autonomous driving systems. In this paper, we propose a deep network scheme assisted by light information with good generalization to detect vehicle at night. Our approach is divided into two branches, the object stream and the pixel stream. The object stream generates a batch of bounding boxes, and the pixel stream utilizes the vehicle light information to calibrate the bounding boxes of the object stream. In the object stream, we propose a new structure, Direction Attention Pooling (DAP), to improve the accuracy of the prior boxes. DAP leads into attention mechanism. The feature maps obtained from backbone network is divided into two branches. One branch obtains direction perception information through IRNN layer, and the other branch learns attention weights. The weights are multiplied with the direction perception features in an element-wise manner. In the pixel stream, we propose a corner localization algorithm based on Bayes to get more accurate corners with the vehicle light pixels. The locations of the corners are considered as a discrete random variable. When the mask of the object is known, solving the probability distribution of the corner of the object is the next step. The corners with the highest probability is the correct corner. On the nighttime vehicle detection datasets CHUK and SYSU, our method achieves the accuracy of 97.2% and 96.86%, which outperforms other state-of-the-art methods by at least 0.31% and 0.34%.
