By reducing the oxygen pressure, mixed-phase Ga_2O_3 films with α and β phases can be obtained, and on the basis of this, mixed-phase Ga_2O_3 thin film solar-blind photodetectors(SBPDs) were prepared.Comparing the responsivities of the mixed-phase Ga_2O_3 SBPDs and the single β-Ga_2O_3 SBPDs at a bias voltage of 25 V,it is found that the former has a maximum responsivity of approximately 12 A/W, which is approximately two orders of magnitude larger than that of the latter. This result shows that the mixed-phase structure of Ga_2O_3 thin films can be used to prepare high-responsivity SBPDs. Moreover, the cause of this phenomenon was investigated, which will provide a feasible way to improve the responsivity of Ga_2O_3 thin film SBPDs.展开更多

Within the mixed-phase cloud layers, liquid-phase fractions needed to be assumed in the data retrieval process, and one existing linear （Pl） and two exponential （P2 and P3） functions, which estimate the liquid-phase fraction as a function of subfreezing temperature （from -20℃ to 0℃）, were tested. The retrieved NC, LWC, IWC and RE using Pl were on average larger than airplane measurements in the same cloud layer, Function P2 performed better than p1 or P3 in retrieving the NCs of cloud droplets in the convective cloud, while function Pl performed better in the stratus cloud. Function P3 performed better in LWC estimation in both convective and stratus clouds. The REs of cloud droplets calculated using the retrieved cloud droplet NC and LWC were closer to the values of in situ observations than those retrieved directly using the Pl function. The retrieved NCs of ice particles in both convective and stratus clouds, on the assumption of liquid-phase fraction during the retrieval of liquid droplet NCs, were closer to those of airplane observations than on the assumption of function P1.展开更多

The influences of the discharge voltage, IL and the amount of copper nitrite were investigated. X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption measurements and UV-Vis spectroscopy were adopted to characterize the samples. The results showed that the specific surface area of TiO2 was promoted with Cu-doping （from 57.6 m^2.g^-1 to 106.2 m^2.g^-1 with 3% Cu-doping）, and the content of anatase was increased. Besides, the band gap energy of TiO~ with Cu-doping decreased according to the UV-Vis spec- troscopy test. The 3%Cu-IL-TiO2 samples showed the highest eificiency in degrading methylene blue （MB） dye solutions under simulated sunlight with an apparent rate constant of 0.0223 min-1, which was 1.2 times higher than that of non-doped samples. According to the characterization results, the reasons for the high photocatalytic activity were discussed.展开更多

Function P3 performed better in LWC estimation in both convective and stratus clouds. The REs of cloud droplets calculated using the retrieved cloud droplet NC and LWC were closer to the values of in situ observations than those retrieved directly using the Pl function. The retrieved NCs of ice particles in both convective and stratus clouds, on the assumption of liquid-phase fraction during the retrieval of liquid droplet NCs, were closer to those of airplane observations than on the assumption of function P1.

文摘An atmospheric-pressure dielectric barrier discharge （DBD） gas-liquid cold plasma was employed to synthesize Cu-doped TiO~ nanoparticles in an aqueous solution with the assistance of [C2MIM]BF4 ionic liquid （IL） and using air as the working gas. The influences of the discharge voltage, IL and the amount of copper nitrite were investigated. X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption measurements and UV-Vis spectroscopy were adopted to characterize the samples. The results showed that the specific surface area of TiO2 was promoted with Cu-doping （from 57.6 m^2.g^-1 to 106.2 m^2.g^-1 with 3% Cu-doping）, and the content of anatase was increased. Besides, the band gap energy of TiO~ with Cu-doping decreased according to the UV-Vis spec- troscopy test. The 3%Cu-IL-TiO2 samples showed the highest eificiency in degrading methylene blue （MB） dye solutions under simulated sunlight with an apparent rate constant of 0.0223 min-1, which was 1.2 times higher than that of non-doped samples. According to the characterization results, the reasons for the high photocatalytic activity were discussed.

文摘Plant diseases are a major threat that can severely impact the production of agriculture and forestry.This can lead to the disruption of ecosystem functions and health.With its ability to capture continuous narrow-band spectra,hyperspectral technology has become a crucial tool to monitor crop diseases using remote sensing.However,existing continuous wavelet analysis(CWA)methods suffer from feature redundancy issues,while the continuous wavelet projection algorithm(CWPA),an optimization approach for feature selection,has not been fully validated to monitor plant diseases.This study utilized rice bacterial leaf blight(BLB)as an example by evaluating the performance of four wavelet basis functions-Gaussian2,Mexican hat,Meyer,andMorlet-within theCWAandCWPAframeworks.Additionally,the classification models were constructed using the k-nearest neighbors(KNN),randomforest(RF),and Naïve Bayes(NB)algorithms.The results showed the following:(1)Compared to traditional CWA,CWPA significantly reduced the number of required features.Under the CWPA framework,almost all the model combinations achieved maximum classification accuracy with only one feature.In contrast,the CWA framework required three to seven features.(2)Thechoice of wavelet basis functions markedly affected the performance of themodel.Of the four functions tested,the Meyer wavelet demonstrated the best overall performance in both the CWPA and CWA frameworks.(3)Under theCWPAframework,theMeyer-KNNandMeyer-NBcombinations achieved the highest overall accuracy of 93.75%using just one feature.In contrast,under the CWA framework,the CWA-RF combination achieved comparable accuracy(93.75%)but required six features.This study verified the technical advantages of CWPA for monitoring crop diseases,identified an optimal wavelet basis function selection scheme,and provided reliable technical support to precisely monitor BLB in rice(Oryza sativa).Moreover,the proposed methodological framework offers a scalable approach for the early diagnosis and assessment of plant stress,which can contribute to improved accuracy and timeliness when plant stress is monitored.

文摘In the vision transformer(ViT)architecture,image data are transformed into sequential data for processing,which may result in the loss of spatial positional information.While the self-attention mechanism enhances the capacity of ViT to capture global features,it compromises the preservation of fine-grained local feature information.To address these challenges,we propose a spatial positional enhancement module and a wavelet transform enhancement module tailored for ViT models.These modules aim to reduce spatial positional information loss during the patch embedding process and enhance the model’s feature extraction capabilities.The spatial positional enhancement module reinforces spatial information in sequential data through convolutional operations and multi-scale feature extraction.Meanwhile,the wavelet transform enhancement module utilizes the multi-scale analysis and frequency decomposition to improve the ViT’s understanding of global and local image structures.This enhancement also improves the ViT’s ability to process complex structures and intricate image details.Experiments on CIFAR-10,CIFAR-100 and ImageNet-1k datasets are done to compare the proposed method with advanced classification methods.The results show that the proposed model achieves a higher classification accuracy,confirming its effectiveness and competitive advantage.

文摘Atmospheric aerosols are the primary contributors to environmental pollution.As such aerosols are micro-to nanosized particles invisible to the naked eye,it is necessary to utilize LiDAR technology for their detection.The laser radar echo signal is vulnerable to background light and electronic thermal noise.While single-photon LiDAR can effectively reduce background light interference,electronic thermal noise remains a significant challenge,especially at long distances and in environments with a low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).However,conventional denoising methods cannot achieve satisfactory results in this case.In this paper,a novel adaptive continuous threshold wavelet denoising algorithm is proposed to filter out the noise.The algorithm features an adaptive threshold and a continuous threshold function.The adaptive threshold is dynamically adjusted according to the wavelet decomposition level,and the continuous threshold function ensures continuity with lower constant error,thus optimizing the denoising process.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has excellent performance in improving SNR and reducing root mean square error(RMSE)compared with other algorithms.Experimental results show that denoising of an actual LiDAR echo signal results in a 4.37 dB improvement in SNR and a 39.5%reduction in RMSE.The proposed method significantly enhances the ability of single-photon LiDAR to detect weak signals.
文摘A distinguished category of operational fluids,known as hybrid nanofluids,occupies a prominent role among various fluid types owing to its superior heat transfer properties.By employing a dovetail fin profile,this work investigates the thermal reaction of a dynamic fin system to a hybrid nanofluid with shape-based properties,flowing uniformly at a velocity U.The analysis focuses on four distinct types of nanoparticles,i.e.,Al2O3,Ag,carbon nanotube(CNT),and graphene.Specifically,two of these particles exhibit a spherical shape,one possesses a cylindrical form,and the final type adopts a platelet morphology.The investigation delves into the pairing of these nanoparticles.The examination employs a combined approach to assess the constructional and thermal exchange characteristics of the hybrid nanofluid.The fin design,under the specified circumstances,gives rise to the derivation of a differential equation.The given equation is then transformed into a dimensionless form.Notably,the Hermite wavelet method is introduced for the first time to address the challenge posed by a moving fin submerged in a hybrid nanofluid with shape-dependent features.To validate the credibility of this research,the results obtained in this study are systematically compared with the numerical simulations.The examination discloses that the highest heat flux is achieved when combining nanoparticles with spherical and platelet shapes.

文摘Nonlinear science is a fundamental area of physics research that investigates complex dynamical systems which are often characterized by high sensitivity and nonlinear behaviors.Numerical simulations play a pivotal role in nonlinear science,serving as a critical tool for revealing the underlying principles governing these systems.In addition,they play a crucial role in accelerating progress across various fields,such as climate modeling,weather forecasting,and fluid dynamics.However,their high computational cost limits their application in high-precision or long-duration simulations.In this study,we propose a novel data-driven approach for simulating complex physical systems,particularly turbulent phenomena.Specifically,we develop an efficient surrogate model based on the wavelet neural operator(WNO).Experimental results demonstrate that the enhanced WNO model can accurately simulate small-scale turbulent flows while using lower computational costs.In simulations of complex physical fields,the improved WNO model outperforms established deep learning models,such as U-Net,Res Net,and the Fourier neural operator(FNO),in terms of accuracy.Notably,the improved WNO model exhibits exceptional generalization capabilities,maintaining stable performance across a wide range of initial conditions and high-resolution scenarios without retraining.This study highlights the significant potential of the enhanced WNO model for simulating complex physical systems,providing strong evidence to support the development of more efficient,scalable,and high-precision simulation techniques.

文摘Image watermarking is a powerful tool for media protection and can provide promising results when combined with other defense mechanisms.Image watermarking can be used to protect the copyright of digital media by embedding a unique identifier that identifies the owner of the content.Image watermarking can also be used to verify the authenticity of digital media,such as images or videos,by ascertaining the watermark information.In this paper,a mathematical chaos-based image watermarking technique is proposed using discrete wavelet transform(DWT),chaotic map,and Laplacian operator.The DWT can be used to decompose the image into its frequency components,chaos is used to provide extra security defense by encrypting the watermark signal,and the Laplacian operator with optimization is applied to the mid-frequency bands to find the sharp areas in the image.These mid-frequency bands are used to embed the watermarks by modifying the coefficients in these bands.The mid-sub-band maintains the invisible property of the watermark,and chaos combined with the second-order derivative Laplacian is vulnerable to attacks.Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that this approach is effective for common signal processing attacks,i.e.,compression,noise addition,and filtering.Moreover,this approach also maintains image quality through peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)and structural similarity index metrics(SSIM).The highest achieved PSNR and SSIM values are 55.4 dB and 1.In the same way,normalized correlation(NC)values are almost 10%–20%higher than comparative research.These results support assistance in copyright protection in multimedia content.
文摘Predicting the currency exchange rate is crucial for financial agents,risk managers,and policymakers.Traditional approaches use publicly announced news on macroeconomic and financial variables as predictors of currency exchange.However,the rise of social media may have changed the source of information.For instance,tweets can help investors make informed decisions about the foreign exchange(FX)market by reflecting market sentiment and opinion.From another aspect,changes in currency exchange may incite agents to post tweets.Are tweets good predictors of currency exchange?Is the relationship between tweets and currency exchange bidirectional?We investigate the comovement/causality between the number of#dolar(“enflasyon”resp.)tweets and USDTRY currency exchange using wavelet coherence and transfer entropy(TE)to answer these questions.Wavelet coherence allows us to determine the relationship between the number of tweets and the USDTRY rate by considering the time–frequency domain.TE enables us to quantify the net information flow between the number of tweets and USDTRY.Data from October 2020 to March 2022 were used.The obtained results remain robust regardless of the frequency of retained data(daily or hourly)and the methods used(wavelet or TE).Based on our results,USDTRY is correlated with the number of#dolar tweets(#inflation)mainly in the short run and a few times in the medium run.These relationships change through time and frequency(wavelet analysis results).However,the results from TE indicate a bidirectional relationship between the#dolar(#inflation)tweets number and the USDTRY exchange rate.The influence of the exchange rate on the number of tweets is highly pronounced.Financial agents,risk managers,policymakers,and investors should then pay moderate attention to the number of#dolar(#inflation)tweets in trading/forecasting the USD–TRY exchange rate.
文摘In this paper,we used higher order Haar wavelet method(HOHWM),introduced by Majak et al.[1],for approximate solution of second order integro-diferential equations(IDEs)of second-kind.It is improvement of long-established Haar wavelet collocation method(HWCM)which has been much popular among researchers and has many applications in literature.Present study aims to improve the numerical results of second order IDEs from first order rate of convergence in case of HWCM to the second and fourth order rate of convergence using HOHWM,depending on parameterλfor values 1 and 2,respectively.Several problems available in the literature of both,Volterra and Fredholm type of IDEs,are tested and compared with HWCM to illustrate the performance of our proposed method.

文摘Plasma spark sources are widely used in high-resolution seismic exploration.However,research on the excitation mechanism and propagation characteristics of plasma spark sources is very limited.In this study,we elaborated on the excitation process of corona discharge plasma spark source based on indoor experimental data.The electrode spacing has a direct impact on the movement of bubbles.As the spacing between bubbles decreases,they collapsed and fused,thereby suppressing the secondary pulse process.Based on the premise of linear arrangement and equal energy synchronous excitation,the motion equation of multiple bubbles under these conditions was derived,and a calculation method for the near-field wavelet model of plasma spark source was established.We simulated the source signals received in different directions and constructed a spatial wavelet face spectrum.Compared with traditional far-field wavelets,the spatial wavelet facial feature representation method provides a more comprehensive display of the variation characteristics and propagation properties of source wavelets in three-dimensional space.The spatial wavelet variation process of the plasma spark source was analyzed,and the source depth and the virtual reflection path are the main factors affecting the wavelet.The high-frequency properties of plasma electric spark source wavelets lead to their sensitivity to factors such as wave fluctuations,position changes,and environmental noise.Minor changes in collection parameters may result in significant changes in the recorded waveform and final data resolution.So,the facial feature method provides more effective technical support for wavelet evaluation.

文摘A clock bias data processing method based on interval correlation coefficient wavelet threshold denoising is suggested for minor mistakes in clock bias data in order to increase the efficacy of satellite clock bias prediction.Wavelet analysis was first used to break down the satellite clock frequency data into several levels,producing high and low frequency coefficients for each layer.The correlation coefficients of the high and low frequency coefficients in each of the three sub-intervals created by splitting these coefficients were then determined.The major noise region—the sub-interval with the lowest correlation coefficient—was chosen for thresholding treatment and noise threshold computation.The clock frequency data was then processed using wavelet reconstruction and reconverted to clock data.Lastly,three different kinds of satellite clock data—RTS,whu-o,and IGS-F—were used to confirm the produced data.Our method enhanced the stability of the Quadratic Polynomial(QP)model’s predictions for the C16 satellite by about 40%,according to the results.The accuracy and stability of the Auto Regression Integrated Moving Average(ARIMA)model improved up to 41.8%and 14.2%,respectively,whilst the Wavelet Neural Network(WNN)model improved by roughly 27.8%and 63.6%,respectively.Although our method has little effect on forecasting IGS-F series satellites,the experimental findings show that it can improve the accuracy and stability of QP,ARIMA,and WNN model forecasts for RTS and whu-o satellite clock bias.

文摘In recent years,variable-order fractional partial differential equations have attracted growing interest due to their enhanced ability tomodel complex physical phenomena withmemory and spatial heterogeneity.However,existing numerical methods often struggle with the computational challenges posed by such equations,especially in nonlinear,multi-term formulations.This study introduces two hybrid numerical methods—the Linear-Sine and Cosine(L1-CAS)and fast-CAS schemes—for solving linear and nonlinear multi-term Caputo variable-order(CVO)fractional partial differential equations.These methods combine CAS wavelet-based spatial discretization with L1 and fast algorithms in the time domain.A key feature of the approach is its ability to efficiently handle fully coupled spacetime variable-order derivatives and nonlinearities through a second-order interpolation technique.In addition,we derive CAS wavelet operational matrices for variable-order integration and for boundary value problems,forming the foundation of the spatial discretization.Numerical experiments confirm the accuracy,stability,and computational efficiency of the proposed methods.
文摘This paper presents CW-HRNet,a high-resolution,lightweight crack segmentation network designed to address challenges in complex scenes with slender,deformable,and blurred crack structures.The model incorporates two key modules:Constrained Deformable Convolution(CDC),which stabilizes geometric alignment by applying a tanh limiter and learnable scaling factor to the predicted offsets,and the Wavelet Frequency Enhancement Module(WFEM),which decomposes features using Haar wavelets to preserve low-frequency structures while enhancing high-frequency boundaries and textures.Evaluations on the CrackSeg9k benchmark demonstrate CW-HRNet’s superior performance,achieving 82.39%mIoU with only 7.49M parameters and 10.34 GFLOPs,outperforming HrSegNet-B48 by 1.83% in segmentation accuracy with minimal complexity overhead.The model also shows strong cross-dataset generalization,achieving 60.01%mIoU and 66.22%F1 on Asphalt3k without fine-tuning.These results highlight CW-HRNet’s favorable accuracyefficiency trade-off for real-world crack segmentation tasks.
文摘A wavelet-based local and global feature fusion network(LAGN)is proposed for low-light image enhancement,aiming to enhance image details and restore colors in dark areas.This study focuses on addressing three key issues in low-light image enhancement:Enhancing low-light images using LAGN to preserve image details and colors;extracting image edge information via wavelet transform to enhance image details;and extracting local and global features of images through convolutional neural networks and Transformer to improve image contrast.Comparisons with state-of-the-art methods on two datasets verify that LAGN achieves the best performance in terms of details,brightness,and contrast.
