It is regarded as a pleiotropic agent that induces many actions, including functioning as a growth factor, and as a contractile hormone, among others. The aim of this work was to examine the impact of Ang II on the expression and function of α<sub>1</sub>-adrenergic receptors (α<sub>1</sub>-ARs) in cultured rat aorta, and aorta-derived smooth muscle cells. Isolated Wistar rat aorta was incubated for 24 h in DMEM at 37˚C, then subjected to isometric tension and to the action of added norepinephrine, in concentration-response curves. Ang II was added (1 × 10<sup>−5</sup> M), and in some experiments, 5-Methylurapidil (α<sub>1A</sub>-AR antagonist), AH11110A (α<sub>1B</sub>-AR antagonist), or BMY-7378 (α<sub>1D</sub>-AR antagonist), were used to identify the α<sub>1</sub>-AR involved in the response. Desensitization of the contractile response to norepinephrine was observed due to incubation time, and by the Ang II action. α<sub>1D</sub>-AR was protected from desensitization by BMY-7378;while RS-100329 and prazosin partially mitigated desensitization. In another set of experiments, isolated aorta-derived smooth muscle cells were exposed to Ang II and α<sub>1</sub>-ARs proteins were evaluated. α<sub>1D</sub>-AR increased at 30 and 60 min post Ang II exposure, the α<sub>1A</sub>-AR diminished from 1 to 4 h, while α<sub>1B</sub>-AR remained unchanged over 24 h of Ang II exposure. Ang II induced an increase of α<sub>1D</sub>-AR at short times, and BMY-7378 protected α<sub>1D</sub>-AR from desensitization.展开更多

Structure-oriented edge-preserving smoothing requires information such as the local orientation and edge of the reflections. The information is usually estimated from seismic data with full frequency bandwidth. When the data has a very low signal to noise ratio （SNR）, the noise usually reduces the estimation accuracy. For seismic data with extremely low SNR, the dominant frequency has higher SNR than other frequencies, so it can provide orientation and edge information more reliably than other frequencies. Orientation and edge are usually described in terms of apparent reflection dips and coherence differences, respectively. When frequency changes, both dip and coherence difference change more slowly than the seismogram itself. For this reason, dip and coherence estimated from dominant frequency data can approximately represent those of other frequency data. Ricker wavelet are widely used in seismic modeling. The Marr wavelet has the same shape as Ricker wavelets in both time and frequency domains, so the Marr wavelet transform is selected to divide seismic data into several frequency bands. Reflection apparent dip as well as the edge information can be obtained by scanning the dominant frequency data. This information can be used to selectively smooth the frequency bands （dominant, low, and high frequencies） separately by structure-oriented edge-preserving smoothing technology. The ultimate noise-suppressed seismic data is the combination of the smoothed frequency band data. Application to synthetic and real data shows the method can effectively reduce noise, preserve edges, improve trackable reflection continuity, and maintain useful information in seismic data.展开更多

Based on the relationship between the circular cone and the second-order cone(SOC), we reformulate the CCP problem as the second-order cone problem(SOCP). By extending the nonmonotone line search for unconstrained optimization to the CCP, a nonmonotone smoothing Newton method is proposed for solving the CCP. Under suitable assumptions, the proposed algorithm is shown to be globally and locally quadratically convergent. Some preliminary numerical results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for solving the CCP.展开更多

Different controller operation modes are simulated considering normal, high fluctuation and emergency conditions. When the system is grid-connected, BES regulates the fluctuated power output which ensures smooth net injected power from the PV/BES system. In islanded operation, BES system is transferred to single master operation during which the frequency and voltage of the islanded microgrid are regulated at the desired level. PSCAD/EMTDC simulation validates the proposed method and obtained favorable results on power set-point tracking strategies with very small deviations of net output power compared to the power set-point. The state-of-charge regulation scheme also very effective with SOC has been regulated between 32% and 79% range.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we present a new method for reducing seismic noise while preserving structural and stratigraphic discontinuities. Structure-oriented edge-preserving smoothing requires information such as the local orientation and edge of the reflections. The information is usually estimated from seismic data with full frequency bandwidth. When the data has a very low signal to noise ratio （SNR）, the noise usually reduces the estimation accuracy. For seismic data with extremely low SNR, the dominant frequency has higher SNR than other frequencies, so it can provide orientation and edge information more reliably than other frequencies. Orientation and edge are usually described in terms of apparent reflection dips and coherence differences, respectively. When frequency changes, both dip and coherence difference change more slowly than the seismogram itself. For this reason, dip and coherence estimated from dominant frequency data can approximately represent those of other frequency data. Ricker wavelet are widely used in seismic modeling. The Marr wavelet has the same shape as Ricker wavelets in both time and frequency domains, so the Marr wavelet transform is selected to divide seismic data into several frequency bands. Reflection apparent dip as well as the edge information can be obtained by scanning the dominant frequency data. This information can be used to selectively smooth the frequency bands （dominant, low, and high frequencies） separately by structure-oriented edge-preserving smoothing technology. The ultimate noise-suppressed seismic data is the combination of the smoothed frequency band data. Application to synthetic and real data shows the method can effectively reduce noise, preserve edges, improve trackable reflection continuity, and maintain useful information in seismic data.

Based on the relationship between the circular cone and the second-order cone(SOC), we reformulate the CCP problem as the second-order cone problem(SOCP). By extending the nonmonotone line search for unconstrained optimization to the CCP, a nonmonotone smoothing Newton method is proposed for solving the CCP. Under suitable assumptions, the proposed algorithm is shown to be globally and locally quadratically convergent. Some preliminary numerical results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for solving the CCP.
文摘In this article,a procedure for estimating the coefficient functions on the functional-coefficient regression models with different smoothing variables in different coefficient functions is defined.First step,by the local linear technique and the averaged method,the initial estimates of the coefficient functions are given.Second step,based on the initial estimates,the efficient estimates of the coefficient functions are proposed by a one-step back-fitting procedure.The efficient estimators share the same asymptotic normalities as the local linear estimators for the functional-coefficient models with a single smoothing variable in different functions.Two simulated examples show that the procedure is effective.
文摘Data sparseness has been an inherited issue of statistical language models and smoothing method is usually used to resolve the zero count problems. In this paper, we studied empirically and analyzed the well-known smoothing methods of Good-Turing and advanced Good-Turing for language models on large sizes Chinese corpus. In the paper, ten models are generated sequentially on various size of corpus, from 30 M to 300 M Chinese words of CGW corpus. In our experiments, the smoothing methods;Good-Turing and Advanced Good-Turing smoothing are evaluated on inside testing and outside testing. Based on experiments results, we analyzed further the trends of perplexity of smoothing methods, which are useful for employing the effective smoothing methods to alleviate the issue of data sparseness on various sizes of language models. Finally, some helpful observations are described in detail.

文摘As the mesh models usually contain noise data,it is necessary to eliminate the noises and smooth the mesh.But existed methods always lose geometric features during the smoothing process.Hence,the noise is considered as a kind of random signal with high frequency,and then the mesh model smoothing is operated with signal processing theory.Local wave analysis is used to deal with geometric signal,and then a novel mesh smoothing method based on the local wave is proposed.The proposed method includes following steps：Firstly,analyze the principle of local wave decomposition for 1D signal,and expand it to 2D signal and 3D spherical surface signal processing;Secondly,map the mesh to the spherical surface with parameterization,resample the spherical mesh and decompose the spherical signals by local wave analysis;Thirdly,propose the coordinate smoothing and radical radius smoothing methods,the former filters the mesh points＇ coordinates by local wave,and the latter filters the radical radius from their geometric center to mesh points by local wave;Finally,remove the high-frequency component of spherical signal,and obtain the smooth mesh model with inversely mapping from the spherical signal.Several mesh models with Gaussian noise are processed by local wave based method and other compared methods.The results show that local wave based method can obtain better smoothing performance,and reserve more original geometric features at the same time.

文摘In this article, we study the analytical smoothing effect of Cauchy problem for the incompressible Boussinesq equations. Precisely, we use the Fourier method to prove that the Sobolev H^1 -solution to the incompressible Boussinesq equations in periodic domain is analytic for any positive time. So the incompressible Boussinesq equations admit exactly same smoothing effect properties of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.

文摘The paper uses Euclidean Jordan algebras as a basic tool to extend smoothing functions, which include the Chen-Mangasarian class and the Fischer-Burmeister smoothing functions, to symmetric cone complementarity problems. Computable formulas for these functions and their Jacobians are derived. In addition, it is shown that these functions are Lipschitz continuous with respect to parameter # and continuously differentiable on J × J for any μ 〉 0.
文摘This work presents a novel coordinated control strategy of a hybrid photovoltaic/battery energy storage(PV/BES) system. Different controller operation modes are simulated considering normal, high fluctuation and emergency conditions. When the system is grid-connected, BES regulates the fluctuated power output which ensures smooth net injected power from the PV/BES system. In islanded operation, BES system is transferred to single master operation during which the frequency and voltage of the islanded microgrid are regulated at the desired level. PSCAD/EMTDC simulation validates the proposed method and obtained favorable results on power set-point tracking strategies with very small deviations of net output power compared to the power set-point. The state-of-charge regulation scheme also very effective with SOC has been regulated between 32% and 79% range.
