To address the probl...Satisfactory results cannot be obtained when three-dimensional (3D) targets with complex maneuvering characteristics are tracked by the commonly used two-dimensional coordinated turn (2DCT) model. To address the problem of 3D target tracking with strong maneuverability, on the basis of the modified three-dimensional variable turn (3DVT) model, an adaptive tracking algorithm is proposed by combining with the cubature Kalman filter (CKF) in this paper. Through ideology of real-time identification, the parameters of the model are changed to adjust the state transition matrix and the state noise covariance matrix. Therefore, states of the target are matched in real-time to achieve the purpose of adaptive tracking. Finally, four simulations are analyzed in different settings by the Monte Carlo method. All results show that the proposed algorithm can update parameters of the model and identify motion characteristics in real-time when targets tracking also has a better tracking accuracy.展开更多

A validation shows that identified cyclone tracks are in good agreement with a available analyzed cyclone product. The climatological characteristics of the Southern Ocean cyclones are then analyzed, including track, number, density, intensity, deepening rate and explosive events. An analysis shows that the number of cyclones in the Southern Ocean has increased for 1979-2013, but only statistically significant in summer. Coincident with the circumpolar trough, a single high-density band of cyclones is observed in 55^-67~S, and cyclone density has generally increased in north of this band for 1979-2013, except summer. The intensity of up to 70% cyclones in the Southern Ocean is less than 980 hPa, and only a few cyclones with pressure less than 920 hPa are detected for 1979-2013. Further analysis shows that a high frequency of explosive cyclones is located in the band of 45^-55~S, and the Atlantic Ocean sector has much higher frequent occurrence of the explosive cyclones than that in the Pacific Ocean sector. Additionally, the relationship between cyclone activities in the Southern Ocean and the Southern Annular Mode is discussed.展开更多

Several methods have been developed and applied to survey the general kinetic and geometric characteristics of the ocean eddies in the South China Sea(SCS). However, very few studies attempt to examine eddies' internal evolution processes. In this study, we reported a hybrid method to trace eddies' propagation in the SCS based on their internal structures, which are characterized by eddy centers, footprint borders, and composite borders. Eddy identification and tracking results were represented by a GIS-based spatiotemporal model. Information on instant states, dynamic evolution processes, and events of disappearance, reappearance, split, and mergence is stored in a GIS database. Results were validated by comparing against the ten Dongsha Cyclonic Eddies(DCEs) and the three long-lived anticyclonic eddies(ACEs) in the northern SCS, which were reported in previous literature. Our study confirmed the development of these eddies. Furthermore, we found more DCE-like and ACE-like eddies in these areas from 2005 to 2012 in our database. Spatial distribution analysis of disappearing, reappearing, splitting, and merging activities shows that eddies in the SCS tend to cluster to the northwest of Luzon Island, southwest of Luzon Strait, and around the marginal sea of Vietnam. Kuroshio intrusions and the complex sea floor topography in these areas are the possible factors that lead to these spatial clusters.展开更多

A mass tracking algorithm was incorporated to capture the free surface, whereas Papanastasiou's modified model was used for Bingham fluids. The lattice Boltzmann method was first validated using two benchmarks: Newtonian flow through a square cross-section tube and Bingham flow through a circular cross-section tube. Afterward, the dam-break problem for the Newtonian fluid and the slump test for Bingham fluid were simulated to validate the free-surface-capturing algorithm. The numerical results were in good agreement with analytical results, as well as other simulations, thereby proving the validity and correctness of the current method. The proposed method is a promising substitute for time-consuming and costly physical experiments to solve problems encountered in geotechnical and geological engineering, such as the surge and debris flow induced by a landslide or earthquake.展开更多

An automatic cyclone tracking algorithm developed by University of Reading was applied on the basis of European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF) ERA-interim mean sea level pressure field with 6 h interval for 34 a period. The maximum number of the Arctic cyclones is counted in winter, and the minimum is in spring not in summer.About 50% of Arctic cyclones in summer generated from south of 70°N, moving into the Arctic. The number of Arctic cyclones has large inter-annual and seasonal variabilities, but no significant linear trend is detected for the period 1979–2012. The spatial distribution and linear trends of the Arctic cyclones track density show that the cyclone activity extent is the widest in summer with significant increasing trend in CRU(central Russia)subregion, and the largest track density is in winter with decreasing trend in the same subregion. The linear regressions between the cyclone track density and large-scale indices for the same period and pre-period sea ice area indices show that Arctic cyclone activities are closely linked to large-scale atmospheric circulations, such as Arctic Oscillation(AO), North Atlantic Oscillation(NAO) and Pacific-North American Pattern(PNA). Moreover,the pre-period sea ice area is significantly associated with the cyclone activities in some regions.展开更多

Multiple features such as grey, edge magnitude and correlation are combined to form a multidimensional space statistics. The statistical algorithm is used to segment an image using the decision curved surface determined by the multidimensional feature function. The segmentation problem which is difficult to solve using the features independently will be readily solved using the same features jointly. An adaptive segmentation algorithm is discussed. Test results of the real-time TV tracker newly developed have shown that the segmentation algorithm discussed here improves effectively the image segmentation quality and system tracking performance.展开更多

In view of the above problems, a shunt three-phase active power filter (SAPF) based on discrete sliding mode control to suppress the harmonics was designed and the power factor improved. First, built the mathematical model of SAPF. Then, controlled the switch through analyzing the harmonic current that was controlled signal using discrete sliding mode control. Through simulation using MATLAB, verified the validity of the algorithm. By the simulation waveforms, it can be found that after the load current containing a large number of harmonics passes the active power filter, the waveform of the power current approximately becomes a sine wave and the harmonics is significantly reduced. As a result, it plays a good role in purifying power systems. Moreover, from the waveforms of harmonic current and power current, it can be found that the algorithm has a faster tracking speed. The waveform can fect.展开更多

Moreover, the tracking structure does not change the receiver’s hardware structure. The main difference between the proposed and the traditional tracking structure lies in the generation of local codes of E,P and L branches. The method of local code generation is designed in a two-stage manner. The first stage is the generation of the P branch local code with fast fouriertransform(FFT). In the second stage, the local codes of the E and L branches are obtained with the code-chip interval. The tracking structure can track and decode L6 signal separately, and track code shift keying(CSK)modulated signal as well. The structure was verified using both simulation data, generated in different conditions, and actual data obtained from QZSS satellites respectively. The results show that the improved tracking loop is able to track L6 signal without other frequency assitance. Furthermore, the biterror ratio(BER) of L6 tracking algorithm is lower than that of L1C/A assist L6 algorithm, when the Doppler remains a constant and reed solomn(RS)encode are applied. To be more specific, with the proposed structure the BER decreased by 11.40%, 17.07%, 15.00%, 11.15%, 5.19% when carrier to noise ratio(CNR) is 36-40 dB·Hz.展开更多

A fingerprint model is presented to adequately extract spectral features. By creating a multidimensional feature space and extending the limited RGB information to the hyperspectral information, the improved precise tracking model based on a nonparamet- ric kernel density estimator is built using the probability his- togram of spectral features. A layered particle filter algorithm for spectral tracking is presented to avoid the object jumping abruptly. Finally, experiments are conducted that show that the tracking algorithm with spectral fingerprint features is ac- curate, fast, and robust. It meets the needs of dim-small target tracking adequately.展开更多

文摘The seasonal and inter-annual variations of Arctic cyclone are investigated. An automatic cyclone tracking algorithm developed by University of Reading was applied on the basis of European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF) ERA-interim mean sea level pressure field with 6 h interval for 34 a period. The maximum number of the Arctic cyclones is counted in winter, and the minimum is in spring not in summer.About 50% of Arctic cyclones in summer generated from south of 70°N, moving into the Arctic. The number of Arctic cyclones has large inter-annual and seasonal variabilities, but no significant linear trend is detected for the period 1979–2012. The spatial distribution and linear trends of the Arctic cyclones track density show that the cyclone activity extent is the widest in summer with significant increasing trend in CRU(central Russia)subregion, and the largest track density is in winter with decreasing trend in the same subregion. The linear regressions between the cyclone track density and large-scale indices for the same period and pre-period sea ice area indices show that Arctic cyclone activities are closely linked to large-scale atmospheric circulations, such as Arctic Oscillation(AO), North Atlantic Oscillation(NAO) and Pacific-North American Pattern(PNA). Moreover,the pre-period sea ice area is significantly associated with the cyclone activities in some regions.

文摘A computational study was carried out on bubble dynamic behaviors and bubble size distributions in a pressurized lab-scale gas-solid fluidized bed of Geldart A particles.High-resolution 3-D numerical simulations were performed using the two-fluid model based on the kinetic theory of granular flow.A finegrid,which is in the range of 3–4 particle diameters,was utilized in order to capture bubble structures explicitly without breaking down the continuum assumption for the solid phase.A novel bubble tracking scheme was developed in combination with a 3-D detection and tracking algorithm(MS3 DATA)and applied to detect the bubble statistics,such as bubble size,location in each time frame and relative position between two adjacent time frames,from numerical simulations.The spatial coordinates and corresponding void fraction data were sampled at 100 Hz for data analyzing.The bubble coalescence/break-up frequencies and the daughter bubble size distribution were evaluated by using the new bubble tracking algorithm.The results showed that the bubble size distributed non-uniformly over cross-sections in the bed.The equilibrium bubble diameter due to bubble break-up and coalescence dynamics can be obtained,and the bubble rise velocity follows Davidson’s correlation closely.Good agreements were obtained between the computed results and that predicted by using the bubble break-up model proposed in our previous work.The computational bubble tracking method showed the potential of analyzing bubble motions and the coalescence and break-up characteristics based on time series data sets of void fraction maps obtained numerically and experimentally.

文摘The soft X-ray polarimeter(SXP)is a detector with a wide energy range,large area,and large field of view.A SXP will be mounted on the Chinese Space Station and will mainly focus on detecting the polarization of transient soft X-ray(2–10 keV)sources,especially gamma-ray bursts(GRBs).In this work,a polarimeter detector unit is taken as an example,and Geant4 and Garfield++software are used to simulate the detection efficiency and track production.An improved track reconstruction algorithm is proposed and used to reconstruct two-dimensional images of the tracks.In this method,the initial emission angle of photoelectrons is reconstructed from the initial part of the track by shortening or extending the initial part of the track until the remaining track is straight,and the number of pixels is within an adjustable threshold.The modulation factor of the photoelectronic tracks after reconstruction reaches approximately 57%in the photon energy range of 7–10 keV.

文摘Apple fruits on trees tend to swing because of wind or other natural causes,therefore reducing the accuracy of apple picking by robots.To increase the accuracy and to speed up the apple tracking and identifying process,tracking and recognition method combined with an affine transformation was proposed.The method can be divided into three steps.First,the initial image was segmented by Otsu’s thresholding method based on the two times Red minus Green minus Blue(2R-G-B)color feature;after improving the binary image,the apples were recognized with a local parameter adaptive Hough circle transformation method,thus improving the accuracy of recognition and avoiding the long,time-consuming process and excessive fitted circles in traditional Hough circle transformation.The process and results were verified experimentally.Second,the Shi-Tomasi corners detected and extracted from the first frame image were tracked,and the corners with large positive and negative optical flow errors were removed.The affine transformation matrix between the two frames was calculated based on the Random Sampling Consistency algorithm(RANSAC)to correct the scale of the template image and predict the apple positions.Third,the best positions of the target apples within 1.2 times of the prediction area were searched with a de-mean normalized cross-correlation template matching algorithm.The test results showed that the running time of each frame was 25 ms and 130 ms and the tracking error was more than 8%and 20%in the absence of template correction and apple position prediction,respectively.In comparison,the running time of our algorithm was 25 ms,and the tracking error was less than 4%.Therefore,test results indicate that speed and efficiency can be greatly improved by using our method,and this strategy can also provide a reference for tracking and recognizing other oscillatory fruits.
文摘A multifeature statistical image segmentation algorithm is described. Multiple features such as grey, edge magnitude and correlation are combined to form a multidimensional space statistics. The statistical algorithm is used to segment an image using the decision curved surface determined by the multidimensional feature function. The segmentation problem which is difficult to solve using the features independently will be readily solved using the same features jointly. An adaptive segmentation algorithm is discussed. Test results of the real-time TV tracker newly developed have shown that the segmentation algorithm discussed here improves effectively the image segmentation quality and system tracking performance.

文摘Because of the widely-used nonlinear loads, the problems of harmonics and low power factor in power systems are becoming more and more serious. In view of the above problems, a shunt three-phase active power filter (SAPF) based on discrete sliding mode control to suppress the harmonics was designed and the power factor improved. First, built the mathematical model of SAPF. Then, controlled the switch through analyzing the harmonic current that was controlled signal using discrete sliding mode control. Through simulation using MATLAB, verified the validity of the algorithm. By the simulation waveforms, it can be found that after the load current containing a large number of harmonics passes the active power filter, the waveform of the power current approximately becomes a sine wave and the harmonics is significantly reduced. As a result, it plays a good role in purifying power systems. Moreover, from the waveforms of harmonic current and power current, it can be found that the algorithm has a faster tracking speed. The waveform can fect.

文摘A tracking structure suitable for L6 signal of quasi-zenith satellite system(QZSS) was proposed in order to track the L6 signal without other frequency assistance. Moreover, the tracking structure does not change the receiver’s hardware structure. The main difference between the proposed and the traditional tracking structure lies in the generation of local codes of E,P and L branches. The method of local code generation is designed in a two-stage manner. The first stage is the generation of the P branch local code with fast fouriertransform(FFT). In the second stage, the local codes of the E and L branches are obtained with the code-chip interval. The tracking structure can track and decode L6 signal separately, and track code shift keying(CSK)modulated signal as well. The structure was verified using both simulation data, generated in different conditions, and actual data obtained from QZSS satellites respectively. The results show that the improved tracking loop is able to track L6 signal without other frequency assitance. Furthermore, the biterror ratio(BER) of L6 tracking algorithm is lower than that of L1C/A assist L6 algorithm, when the Doppler remains a constant and reed solomn(RS)encode are applied. To be more specific, with the proposed structure the BER decreased by 11.40%, 17.07%, 15.00%, 11.15%, 5.19% when carrier to noise ratio(CNR) is 36-40 dB·Hz.

文摘Distributed coordinated control of networked robotic systems formulated by Lagrange dynamics has recently been a subject of considerable interest within science and technology communities due to its broad engineering applications involving complex and integrated production processes,where high flexibility,manipulability,and maneuverability are desirable characteristics.In this paper,we investigate the distributed coordinated adaptive tracking problem of networked redundant robotic systems with a dynamic leader.We provide an analysis procedure for the controlled synchronization of such systems with uncertain dynamics.We also find that the proposed control strategy does not require computing positional inverse kinematics and does not impose any restriction on the self-motion of the manipulators;therefore,the extra degrees of freedom are applicable for other sophisticated subtasks.Compared with some existing work,a distinctive feature of the designed distributed control algorithm is that only a subset of followers needs to access the position information of the dynamic leader in the task space,where the underlying directed graph has a spanning tree.Subsequently,we present a simulation example to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

文摘A precise method for accurately tracking dim- small targets, based on spectral fingerprint is proposed where traditional full color tracking seems impossible. A fingerprint model is presented to adequately extract spectral features. By creating a multidimensional feature space and extending the limited RGB information to the hyperspectral information, the improved precise tracking model based on a nonparamet- ric kernel density estimator is built using the probability his- togram of spectral features. A layered particle filter algorithm for spectral tracking is presented to avoid the object jumping abruptly. Finally, experiments are conducted that show that the tracking algorithm with spectral fingerprint features is ac- curate, fast, and robust. It meets the needs of dim-small target tracking adequately.
