This model is able to quantitatively describe transformation relationships of the NDVI on continuous scales. Then the following experiments are accomplished： （1） the validation of ETM＋ NDVI imagery is implemented based on the GEOEYE-1 image and its NDVI CSSM, and the following conclusion is obtained： because of bad stripes in the ETM＋ image and the limited effect of destriping, the ETM＋ NDVI image had a rather large error, and the error for the entire experimental imagery is about 25%, so the ETM＋ NDVI product is not suitable for direct practical application; （2） Shatian Byland （Beihai City, China） is taken as the experimental area, and four images （two ETM＋ images with wider and smaller coverage, respectively, a GEOEYE-1 image, and an HJ-1B CCD1 image） are studied. The most suitable scale levels are computed and compared for the four images, and a better understanding is obtained of the impact of various image characteristics （area of coverage, spatial resolution, and imaging quality） on determining the scale level for the NDVI CSSM.展开更多

For the purpose of improving the efficiency and intelligence of design process, case-based reasoning（CBR） technology was applied to the design of the two-step gear reducer. Firstly, the current design method for the two-step gear reducer was analyzed and the principle of CBR was described. Secondly, according to the characteristics of the reducer, three key technologies of CBR were studied and the corresponding methods were provided, which are as follows： （a） an object-oriented knowledge representation method, （b） a retrieval method combining the nearest neighbor with the induction indexing, and （c） a case adaptation algorithm combining the revision based on rule with artificial revision. Also, for the purpose of improving the credibility of case retrieval, a new method for determining the weights of characteristics and a similarity formula were presented, which is a combinatorial weighting method with the analytic hierarchy process（AHP） and roughness set theory. Lastly, according to the above analytic results, a design system of the two-step gear reducer on CBR was developed by VC＋＋, UG and Access 2003. A new method for the design of the two-step gear reducer is provided in this study. If the foregoing developed system is applied to design the two-step gear reducer, design efficiency is improved, which enables the designer to release from the tedious design process of the gear reducer so as to put more efforts on innovative design. The study result fully reflects the feasibility and validity of CBR technology in the process of the design of the mechanical parts.展开更多

However in most power control schemes, total data rates or throughput are regarded as optimization criterion. In this paper, a combining call admission control(CAC) and power control scheme under guaranteeing QoS of every user equipment(UE) is proposed. First, a simple CAC scheme is introduced. Then based on the CAC scheme, a combining call admission control and power control scheme is proposed. Next, the performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated. Finally, maximum DUE pair number and average transmitting power is calculated. Simulation results show that D2 D communications with the proposed combining call admission control and power control scheme can effectively improve the maximum DUE pair number under the premise of meeting necessary QoS.展开更多

文摘A wide terahertz tuning range from 0.96 THz to 7.01 THz has been demonstrated based on ring-cavity THz wave parametric oscillator with a KTiOPO_(4)(KTP)crystal.The tuning range was observed intermittently from 0.96 THz to 1.87 THz,from 3.04 THz to 3.33 THz,from 4.17 THz to 4.48 THz,from 4.78 THz to 4.97 THz,from 5.125 THz to 5.168 THz,from5.44 THz to 5.97 THz,and from 6.74 THz to 7.01 THz.The dual-Stokes wavelengths resonance phenomena were observed in some certain tuning angle ranges.Through the theoretical analysis of the dispersion curve of the KTP crystal,the intermittent THz wave tuning range and dual-wavelength Stokes waves operation during angle tuning process were explained.The theoretical analysis was in good agreement with the experiment results.The maximum THz output voltage detected by Golay cell was 1.7 V at 5.7 THz under the pump energy of 210 mJ,corresponding to the THz wave output energy of5.47μJ and conversion efficiency of 2.6×10^(-5).

文摘Theβ-Ga_(2)O_(3)films are prepared on polished Al_(2)O_(3)(0001)substrates by pulsed laser deposition at different oxygen partial pressures.The influence of oxygen partial pressure on crystal structure,surface morphology,thickness,optical properties,and photoluminescence properties are studied by x-ray diffraction(XRD),atomic force microscope(AFM),scanning electron microscope(SEM),spectrophotometer,and spectrofluorometer.The results of x-ray diffraction and atomic force microscope indicate that with the decrease of oxygen pressure,the full width at half maximum(FWHM)and grain size increase.With the increase of oxygen pressure,the thickness of the films first increases and then decreases.The room-temperature UV-visible(UV-Vis)absorption spectra show that the bandgap of theβ-Ga_(2)O_(3)film increases from4.76 e V to 4.91 e V as oxygen pressure decreasing.Room temperature photoluminescence spectra reveal that the emission band can be divided into four Gaussian bands centered at about 310 nm(~4.0 e V),360 nm(~3.44 e V),445 nm(~2.79 e V),and 467 nm(~2.66 e V),respectively.In addition,the total photoluminescence intensity decreases with oxygen pressure increasing,and it is found that the two UV bands are related to self-trapped holes(STHs)at O1 sites and between two O2-s sites,respectively,and the two blue bands originate from V_(Ga)^(2-)at Ga1 tetrahedral sites.The photoluminescence mechanism of the films is also discussed.These results will lay a foundation for investigating the Ga_(2)O_(3)film-based electronic devices.

文摘Image steganography is a technique that hides secret information into the cover image to protect information security.The current image steganography is mainly to embed a smaller secret image in an area such as a texture of a larger-sized cover image,which will cause the size of the secret image to be much smaller than the cover image.Therefore,the problem of small steganographic capacity needs to be solved urgently.This paper proposes a steganography framework that combines image compression.In this framework,the Vector Quantized Variational AutoEncoder(VQ-VAE)is used to achieve the compression of the secret image.The compressed and reconstructed image is visually indistinguishable from the original image and facilitates more embedded data information later.Finally,the compressed image is transmitted to a SegNet deep neural network that contains a set of encoders and decoders to achieve image hiding and extraction.Experimental results show that the steganographic framework guarantees the quality of steganography while its relative steganographic capacity reaches 1.Besides,Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio(PSNR)and Structural Similarity Index(SSIM)values can reach 42 dB and 0.94,respectively.
文摘Solving the absent assignment problem of the shortest time limit in a weighted bipartite graph with the minimal weighted k-matching algorithm is unsuitable for situations in which large numbers of problems need to be addressed by large numbers of parties. This paper simplifies the algorithm of searching for the even alternating path that contains a maximal element using the minimal weighted k-matching theorem and intercept graph. A program for solving the maximal efficiency assignment problem was compiled. As a case study, the program was used to solve the assignment problem of water piping repair in the case of a large number of companies and broken pipes, and the validity of the program was verified.
文摘Based on the fractal theory, this study establishes a Continuous Spatial Scaling Model （CSSM） of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index （NDVI） to address issues arising with spatial up-scaling in quantitative remote sensing. This model is able to quantitatively describe transformation relationships of the NDVI on continuous scales. Then the following experiments are accomplished： （1） the validation of ETM＋ NDVI imagery is implemented based on the GEOEYE-1 image and its NDVI CSSM, and the following conclusion is obtained： because of bad stripes in the ETM＋ image and the limited effect of destriping, the ETM＋ NDVI image had a rather large error, and the error for the entire experimental imagery is about 25%, so the ETM＋ NDVI product is not suitable for direct practical application; （2） Shatian Byland （Beihai City, China） is taken as the experimental area, and four images （two ETM＋ images with wider and smaller coverage, respectively, a GEOEYE-1 image, and an HJ-1B CCD1 image） are studied. The most suitable scale levels are computed and compared for the four images, and a better understanding is obtained of the impact of various image characteristics （area of coverage, spatial resolution, and imaging quality） on determining the scale level for the NDVI CSSM.

文摘Novel orange-red Sr_(2)GdSbO_(6):xEu^(3+)(x=0,0.05,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5 and 0.6) phospho rs were successfully prepared by the traditional high-temperature solid-state method.The results of Rietveld refinement,energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS) spectrum and elemental mapping demonstrate that Eu^(3+) successfully replaces the Gd^(3+) sites and distributes uniformly in the particles of phosphors.The luminescence properties of Sr_(2)GdSbO_(6):Eu_(3+)phosphors were investigated in detail.The emission spectra of the strongest emission peak is the ^(5)D_(0)→^(7)F_(1)(593 nm) transition,which can emit orange-red light under393 nm excitation.When the doping concentration of Eu3+ions is x=0.2,the luminescence intensity of the phosphors reaches the highest.The detailed mechanism of concentration quenching is attributed to dipole-dipole interaction.The thermal stability values of Sr_(2)GdSbO_(6):0.2Eu^(3+) phosphors are 87%,82% and114% under 393,467 and 527 nm excitations,respectively.The causes of the abnormal thermal quenching under 527 nm excitation were analyzed.Based on the abnormal thermal quenching under527 nm excitation,the optical thermometry properties of Sr_(2)GdSbO_(6):0.2Eu^(3+)phosphors were investigated by fluorescence intensity ratio(FIR) technique,and appreciable relative sensitivity was obtained.The results suggest that Sr_(2)GdSbO_(6):0.2Eu^(3+)phosphors can be potentially applied to w-LEDs and optical thermometers.

文摘The rapid development of the internet and digital media has provided convenience while also posing a potential risk of steganography abuse.Identifying steganographer is essential in tracing secret information origins and preventing illicit covert communication online.Accurately discerning a steganographer from many normal users is challenging due to various factors,such as the complexity in obtaining the steganography algorithm,extracting highly separability features,and modeling the cover data.After extensive exploration,several methods have been proposed for steganographer identification.This paper presents a survey of existing studies.Firstly,we provide a concise introduction to the research background and outline the issue of steganographer identification.Secondly,we present fundamental concepts and techniques that establish a general framework for identifying steganographers.Within this framework,state-of-the-art methods are summarized from five key aspects:data acquisition,feature extraction,feature optimization,identification paradigm,and performance evaluation.Furthermore,theoretical and experimental analyses examine the advantages and limitations of these existing methods.Finally,the survey highlights outstanding issues in image steganographer identification that deserve further research.

文摘In this paper,a detection method combining Cameron decomposition based on polarization scattering characteristics in sea clutter background is proposed.Firstly,the Cameron decomposition is exploited to fuse the radar echoes of full polarization channels at the data level.Due to the artificial material structure on the surface of the target,it can be shown that the non-reciprocity of the target cell is stronger than that of the clutter cell.Then,based on the analysis of the decomposition results,a new feature with scattering geometry characteristics in polarization domain,denoted as Cameron polarization decomposition scattering weight(CPD-SW),is extracted as the test statistic,which can achieve more detailed descriptions of the clutter scattering characteristics utilizing the difference between their scattering types.Finally,the superiority of the proposed CPD-SW detector over traditional detectors in improving detection performance is verified by the IPIX measured dataset,which has strong stability under short-time observation in threshold detection and can also improve the separability of feature space zin anomaly detection.

文摘Omicron,the new mutant coronavirus,has spread rapidly globally,attracting close attention from different stakeholders worldwide.The complex and constantly changing epidemic situation has had a new impact on the world.Therefore,this paper focuses on the characteristics of the rapid spread of the COVID-19 variant strain.Generally,epidemic prevention experts conduct preliminary screening as part of the existing epidemic plan database according to the current local situation,after which they sort the alternatives deemed more suitable for the situation.Then the decision-makers identify the most divergent expert group,plan for consultation and adjustments,and finally obtain the plan with the smallest divergence.This article aims to integrate the experts'opinions with the method of minimizing the differences,which can maximize the expert consensus and help organize the schemes that best meet the epidemic situation.The experts'negotiation and iteration of the differences in the initial plan align with the current complex and dynamic epidemic situation and are of great significance to the rapid formulation of plans to achieve effective prevention and control.

文摘Currently,telecom fraud is expanding from the traditional telephone network to the Internet,and identifying fraudulent IPs is of great significance for reducing Internet telecom fraud and protecting consumer rights.However,existing telecom fraud identification methods based on blacklists,reputation,content and behavioral characteristics have good identification performance in the telephone network,but it is difficult to apply to the Internet where IP(Internet Protocol)addresses change dynamically.To address this issue,we propose a fraudulent IP identification method based on homology detection and DBSCAN(Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise)clustering(DC-FIPD).First,we analyze the aggregation of fraudulent IP geographies and the homology of IP addresses.Next,the collected fraudulent IPs are clustered geographically to obtain the regional distribution of fraudulent IPs.Then,we constructed the fraudulent IP feature set,used the genetic optimization algorithm to determine the weights of the fraudulent IP features,and designed the calculation method of the IP risk value to give the risk value threshold of the fraudulent IP.Finally,the risk value of the target IP is calculated and the IP is identified based on the risk value threshold.Experimental results on a real-world telecom fraud detection dataset show that the DC-FIPD method achieves an average identification accuracy of 86.64%for fraudulent IPs.Additionally,the method records a precision of 86.08%,a recall of 45.24%,and an F1-score of 59.31%,offering a comprehensive evaluation of its performance in fraud detection.These results highlight the DC-FIPD method’s effectiveness in addressing the challenges of fraudulent IP identification.

文摘The probabilistic hesitant fuzzy multi-attribute group decision-making method introduces probability and hesitation into decision-making problems at the same time,which can improve the reliability and accuracy of decision-making results,and has become a research hotspots in recent years.However,there are still many problems,such as overly complex calculations and difficulty in obtaining probability data.Based on these,the paper proposes a multi-attribute group decision-making model based on probability hesitant fuzzy soft sets.Firstly,the definition of probabilistic hesitant fuzzy soft set is given.Then,based on soft set theory and probabilistic hesitant fuzzy set,the similarity measure of probabilistic hesitant fuzzy soft set is proposed,and the two measures are further combined.Finally,it is applied to the construction of multi-attribute group decision-making model,and the effectiveness and rationality of the model are verified by an example.The example shows that the new similarity calculation formula and algorithm model in this paper have higher accuracy,and the calculation process is more simple,it provides a feasible method for multi-attribute group decision making problems.

文摘The design of the two-step gear reducer is a tedious and time-consuming process. For the purpose of improving the efficiency and intelligence of design process, case-based reasoning（CBR） technology was applied to the design of the two-step gear reducer. Firstly, the current design method for the two-step gear reducer was analyzed and the principle of CBR was described. Secondly, according to the characteristics of the reducer, three key technologies of CBR were studied and the corresponding methods were provided, which are as follows： （a） an object-oriented knowledge representation method, （b） a retrieval method combining the nearest neighbor with the induction indexing, and （c） a case adaptation algorithm combining the revision based on rule with artificial revision. Also, for the purpose of improving the credibility of case retrieval, a new method for determining the weights of characteristics and a similarity formula were presented, which is a combinatorial weighting method with the analytic hierarchy process（AHP） and roughness set theory. Lastly, according to the above analytic results, a design system of the two-step gear reducer on CBR was developed by VC＋＋, UG and Access 2003. A new method for the design of the two-step gear reducer is provided in this study. If the foregoing developed system is applied to design the two-step gear reducer, design efficiency is improved, which enables the designer to release from the tedious design process of the gear reducer so as to put more efforts on innovative design. The study result fully reflects the feasibility and validity of CBR technology in the process of the design of the mechanical parts.

文摘As device-to-device(D2D) communications usually reuses the resource of cellular networks, call admission control(CAC) and power control are crucial problems. However in most power control schemes, total data rates or throughput are regarded as optimization criterion. In this paper, a combining call admission control(CAC) and power control scheme under guaranteeing QoS of every user equipment(UE) is proposed. First, a simple CAC scheme is introduced. Then based on the CAC scheme, a combining call admission control and power control scheme is proposed. Next, the performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated. Finally, maximum DUE pair number and average transmitting power is calculated. Simulation results show that D2 D communications with the proposed combining call admission control and power control scheme can effectively improve the maximum DUE pair number under the premise of meeting necessary QoS.
