As part of this study, bridge piers were installed with bed sills at the bed of an experimental flume. Experimental tests were conducted under different flow conditions and varying distances between bridge pier and bed sill. The ANN, OK and IDW models were applied to the experimental data and it was shown that the artificial neural network model predicts local scour depth more accurately than the kriging and inverse distance weighting models. It was found that the ANN with two hidden layers was the optimum model to predict local scour depth. The results from the sixth test case showed that the ANN with one hidden layer and 17 hidden nodes was the best model to predict local scour depth. Whereas the results from the fifth test case found that the ANN with three hidden layers was the best model to predict local scour depth.展开更多

The sequences may be composed of binary symbols denoting either silent or monophonic sounded pulses, or ternary symbols denoting silent pulses and two types of sounded pulses made up of low-pitched (dum) and high-pitched (tak) sounds. Experiments are described that compare the effectiveness of the many-to-many minimum-weight matching between two sequences to serve as a measure of similarity that correlates well with human judgements of rhythm similarity. This measure is also compared to the often used edit distance and to the one-to-one minimum-weight matching. New results are reported from experiments performed with three widely different datasets of real- world and artificially generated musical rhythms (including Afro-Cuban rhythms), and compared with results previously reported with a dataset of Middle Eastern dum-tak rhythms.展开更多

Because real meteorological data of the basin (precipitation, temperature and evaporation) do not have normal distribution, precipitation, temperature and evaporation distribution maps are drawn after normalization process. The number of meteorological stations, in other words the number of samples, is low, so only IDW method is used in this research. In addition to the research, reliability of the results obtained with the help of inverse distance weighting method was examined with accuracy analysis. The purpose of this study, the spatial distribution of meteorological data on a basin or areas is to demonstrate the applicability of the statistical basis.展开更多

文摘反距离加权插值方法(Inverse Distance Weighted,IDW)是生成数字高程模型(Digital Elevation Model,DEM)的常用内插手段之一,不同的地形应使用合适的IDW距离指数进行插值。本文选取了平原、丘陵、小起伏山地、中起伏山地和大起伏山地5种地形,设计了2组试验,从地形宏观形态和地形微观形态2个方面研究了地形对IDW插值中最优距离指数(Optimal order of distances,OOD)的影响。首先使用狼群算法(Wolf pack algorithm,WPA)计算不同地形区下IDW插值的OOD,分析不同地形之间OOD的分布差异;其次选取坡度、坡向、曲率3个地形因子,计算各采样点的OOD,分析不同地形因子对采样点OOD的影响。结果表明,从平原地区到大起伏山地地区,随着区域内地形起伏度的增加,OOD减小。采样点的OOD在高值区的占比随坡度增大而减小;OOD随坡向变化差异不大;随着地形曲率的增大,OOD在高值区的占比增加,在低值区的占比减小。在较为平坦的地区,例如平原地区,丘陵地区建议使用OOD在3≤a≤4范围内取值进行IDW插值,而在小起伏山地、中起伏山地和大起伏山地等山地区建议采用OOD在1≤a≤2范围内取值进行IDW插值。
