USTC FLICAR: A Sensors Fusion Dataset of LiDAR-Inertial-Camera for Heavy-duty Autonomous Aerial Work RobotsZiming Wang, Yujiang Liu, Yifan Duan et al.
In this paper, we present the USTC FLICAR Dataset, which is dedicated to the development of simultaneous localization and mapping and precise 3D reconstruction of the workspace for heavy-duty autonomous aerial work robots. In recent years, numerous public datasets have played significant roles in the advancement of autonomous cars and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). However, these two platforms differ from aerial work robots: UAVs are limited in their payload capacity, while cars are restricted to two-dimensional movements. To fill this gap, we create the "Giraffe" mapping robot based on a bucket truck, which is equipped with a variety of well-calibrated and synchronized sensors: four 3D LiDARs, two stereo cameras, two monocular cameras, Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), and a GNSS/INS system. A laser tracker is used to record the millimeter-level ground truth positions. We also make its ground twin, the "Okapi" mapping robot, to gather data for comparison. The proposed dataset extends the typical autonomous driving sensing suite to aerial scenes, demonstrating the potential of combining autonomous driving perception systems with bucket trucks to create a versatile autonomous aerial working platform. Moreover, based on the Segment Anything Model (SAM), we produce the Semantic FLICAR dataset, which provides fine-grained semantic segmentation annotations for multimodal continuous data in both temporal and spatial dimensions. The dataset is available for download at: https://ustc-flicar.github.io/.

A Novel Immune Algorithm for Multiparty Multiobjective OptimizationKesheng Chen, Wenjian Luo, Qi Zhou et al.
Traditional multiobjective optimization problems (MOPs) are insufficiently equipped for scenarios involving multiple decision makers (DMs), which are prevalent in many practical applications. These scenarios are categorized as multiparty multiobjective optimization problems (MPMOPs). For MPMOPs, the goal is to find a solution set that is as close to the Pareto front of each DM as much as possible. This poses challenges for evolutionary algorithms in terms of searching and selecting. To better solve MPMOPs, this paper proposes a novel approach called the multiparty immune algorithm (MPIA). The MPIA incorporates an inter-party guided crossover strategy based on the individual's non-dominated sorting ranks from different DM perspectives and an adaptive activation strategy based on the proposed multiparty cover metric (MCM). These strategies enable MPIA to activate suitable individuals for the next operations, maintain population diversity from different DM perspectives, and enhance the algorithm's search capability. To evaluate the performance of MPIA, we compare it with ordinary multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) and state-of-the-art multiparty multiobjective optimization evolutionary algorithms (MPMOEAs) by solving synthetic multiparty multiobjective problems and real-world biparty multiobjective unmanned aerial vehicle path planning (BPUAV-PP) problems involving multiple DMs. Experimental results demonstrate that MPIA outperforms other algorithms.

Showing Many Labels in Multi-label Classification Models: An Empirical Study of Adversarial ExamplesYujiang Liu, Wenjian Luo, Zhijian Chen et al.
With the rapid development of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), they have been applied in numerous fields. However, research indicates that DNNs are susceptible to adversarial examples, and this is equally true in the multi-label domain. To further investigate multi-label adversarial examples, we introduce a novel type of attacks, termed "Showing Many Labels". The objective of this attack is to maximize the number of labels included in the classifier's prediction results. In our experiments, we select nine attack algorithms and evaluate their performance under "Showing Many Labels". Eight of the attack algorithms were adapted from the multi-class environment to the multi-label environment, while the remaining one was specifically designed for the multi-label environment. We choose ML-LIW and ML-GCN as target models and train them on four popular multi-label datasets: VOC2007, VOC2012, NUS-WIDE, and COCO. We record the success rate of each algorithm when it shows the expected number of labels in eight different scenarios. Experimental results indicate that under the "Showing Many Labels", iterative attacks perform significantly better than one-step attacks. Moreover, it is possible to show all labels in the dataset.

PEL-BERT: A Joint Model for Protocol Entity LinkingShoubin Li, Wenzao Cui, Yujiang Liu et al.
Pre-trained models such as BERT are widely used in NLP tasks and are fine-tuned to improve the performance of various NLP tasks consistently. Nevertheless, the fine-tuned BERT model trained on our protocol corpus still has a weak performance on the Entity Linking (EL) task. In this paper, we propose a model that joints a fine-tuned language model with an RFC Domain Model. Firstly, we design a Protocol Knowledge Base as the guideline for protocol EL. Secondly, we propose a novel model, PEL-BERT, to link named entities in protocols to categories in Protocol Knowledge Base. Finally, we conduct a comprehensive study on the performance of pre-trained language models on descriptive texts and abstract concepts. Experimental results demonstrate that our model achieves state-of-the-art performance in EL on our annotated dataset, outperforming all the baselines.
