According to good classification by the correct rate of a neural network classifier, a multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifier with better generalization, as well as, addition of time-frequency features set for classifying six different modulation types has been proposed. Computer simulations show that the MLP classifier outperforms the decision-theoretic classifier at low SNRs, and the classification experiments for real MPSK signals verify engineering significance of the MLP classifier.展开更多

However, it is well established that when reinforced especially by nano-fillers, its ability to withstand crack propagation is propitiously improved. The crack is either deflected or bifurcated when interacting with strong nano-filler such as Multi-Layer Graphene (MLG). Due to the deflection and bifurcation of cracks, specific fracture patterns are observed. Although these fracture patterns seem aesthetically appealing, however, if delved deeper, they can further be used to estimate the influence of nano-filler on the mechanical properties. Here we show that, by a meticulous examination of topographical features of fractured patterns, various important aspects related to fillers can be approximated such as dispersion state, interfacial interactions, presence of agglomerates, and overall influence of the incorporation of filler on the mechanical properties of nanocomposites.展开更多

文摘The key parameters that characterize the morphological quality of multi-layer and multi-pass metal laser deposited parts are the surface roughness and the error between the actual printing height and the theoretical model height.The Taguchi method was employed to establish the correlations between process parameter combinations and multi-objective characterization of metal deposition morphology(height error and roughness).Results show that using the signal-to-noise ratio and grey relational analysis,the optimal parameter combination for multi-layer and multi-pass deposition is determined as follows:laser power of 800 W,powder feeding rate of 0.3 r/min,step distance of 1.6 mm,and scanning speed of 20 mm/s.Subsequently,a Genetic Bayesian-back propagation(GB-BP)network is constructed to predict multi-objective responses.Compared with the traditional back propagation network,the GB-back propagation network improves the prediction accuracy of height error and surface roughness by 43.14%and 71.43%,respectively.This network can accurately predict the multi-objective characterization of morphological quality of multi-layer and multi-pass metal deposited parts.

文摘Objective To develop a depression recognition model by integrating the spirit-expression diagnostic framework of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)with machine learning algorithms.The proposed model seeks to establish a TCM-informed tool for early depression screening,thereby bridging traditional diagnostic principles with modern computational approaches.Methods The study included patients with depression who visited the Shanghai Pudong New Area Mental Health Center from October 1,2022 to October 1,2023,as well as students and teachers from Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine during the same period as the healthy control group.Videos of 3–10 s were captured using a Xiaomi Pad 5,and the TCM spirit and expressions were determined by TCM experts(at least 3 out of 5 experts agreed to determine the category of TCM spirit and expressions).Basic information,facial images,and interview information were collected through a portable TCM intelligent analysis and diagnosis device,and facial diagnosis features were extracted using the Open CV computer vision library technology.Statistical analysis methods such as parametric and non-parametric tests were used to analyze the baseline data,TCM spirit and expression features,and facial diagnosis feature parameters of the two groups,to compare the differences in TCM spirit and expression and facial features.Five machine learning algorithms,including extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost),decision tree(DT),Bernoulli naive Bayes(BernoulliNB),support vector machine(SVM),and k-nearest neighbor(KNN)classification,were used to construct a depression recognition model based on the fusion of TCM spirit and expression features.The performance of the model was evaluated using metrics such as accuracy,precision,and the area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve(AUC).The model results were explained using the Shapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP).Results A total of 93 depression patients and 87 healthy individuals were ultimately included in this study.There was no statistically significant difference in the baseline characteristics between the two groups(P>0.05).The differences in the characteristics of the spirit and expressions in TCM and facial features between the two groups were shown as follows.(i)Quantispirit facial analysis revealed that depression patients exhibited significantly reduced facial spirit and luminance compared with healthy controls(P<0.05),with characteristic features such as sad expressions,facial erythema,and changes in the lip color ranging from erythematous to cyanotic.(ii)Depressed patients exhibited significantly lower values in facial complexion L,lip L,and a values,and gloss index,but higher values in facial complexion a and b,lip b,low gloss index,and matte index(all P<0.05).(iii)The results of multiple models show that the XGBoost-based depression recognition model,integrating the TCM“spirit-expression”diagnostic framework,achieved an accuracy of 98.61%and significantly outperformed four benchmark algorithms—DT,BernoulliNB,SVM,and KNN(P<0.01).(iv)The SHAP visualization results show that in the recognition model constructed by the XGBoost algorithm,the complexion b value,categories of facial spirit,high gloss index,low gloss index,categories of facial expression and texture features have significant contribution to the model.Conclusion This study demonstrates that integrating TCM spirit-expression diagnostic features with machine learning enables the construction of a high-precision depression detection model,offering a novel paradigm for objective depression diagnosis.
文摘BACKGROUND SMARCB1/INI1-deficient pancreatic undifferentiated rhabdoid carcinoma is a highly aggressive tumor,and spontaneous splenic rupture(SSR)as its presenting manifestation is rarely reported among pancreatic malignancies.CASE SUMMARY We herein report a rare case of a 59-year-old female who presented with acute left upper quadrant abdominal pain without any history of trauma.Abdominal imaging demonstrated a heterogeneous splenic lesion with hemoperitoneum,raising clinical suspicion of SSR.Emergency laparotomy revealed a pancreatic tumor invading the spleen and left kidney,with associated splenic rupture and dense adhesions,necessitating en bloc resection of the distal pancreas,spleen,and left kidney.Histopathology revealed a biphasic malignancy composed of moderately differentiated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and an undifferentiated carcinoma with rhabdoid morphology and loss of SMARCB1 expression.Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed complete loss of SMARCB1/INI1 in the undifferentiated component,along with a high Ki-67 index(approximately 80%)and CD10 positivity.The ductal adenocarcinoma component retained SMARCB1/INI1 expression and was positive for CK7 and CK-pan.Transitional zones between the two tumor components suggested progressive dedifferentiation and underlying genomic instability.The patient received adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel and maintained a satisfactory quality of life at the 6-month follow-up.CONCLUSION This study reports a rare case of SMARCB1/INI1-deficient undifferentiated rhabdoid carcinoma of the pancreas combined with ductal adenocarcinoma,presenting as SSR-an exceptionally uncommon initial manifestation of pancreatic malignancy.

文摘Improved delay detached eddy simulation is performed to explore the flow features and aero-optical effects of turrets with different bottom cylinder height at a freestream Mach number Ma=0.7.Analysis of both the time-averaged and instantaneous flow features demonstrate that the shock motion causes the oscillation of separated shear layer.In flow analysis,two unsteady shock-wake-correlated modes are discerned:the asymmetric shifting mode and the symmetric breathing mode.With the increase of cylinder height,the relative energy of shock gradually increases,which goes from 26%to 59%.The proper orthogonal decomposition analysis yields the single frequency peak for the two dominant modes.The frequency peaks of shifting mode are generally at StD<0.23,while the frequency peaks of breathing mode are generally at StD>0.26.The dynamic mode decomposition analysis gives range of frequency peak.The frequency peaks of shifting mode are in the range of StD=0.11-0.23,and the frequency peaks of breathing mode are in range of StD=0.26-0.41.Optical distortion analysis indicates that the distortion calculated in five cases is linked to the breathing mode.When the beam passes through the turbulent wake,it exhibits the high-frequency and high-amplitude characteristics.

文摘This study proposes a multimodal deep learning framework for joint prediction of the state of health(SOH)and remaining useful life(RUL)of lithium-ion batteries.Twelve representative impedance features-covering charge-transfer resistance,solid electrolyte interface(SEI)layer impedance,and ion diffusion-are extracted from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and combined with short voltage/current segments to form a compact,interpretable feature set.A residual multi-layer perceptron(ResMLP)is employed for SOH regression,and a temporal convolutional network with attention(TCNAttention)is used for RUL estimation.Lifetime experiments on two battery types with different chemistries and form factors,evaluated through three rounds of paired cross-validation,validate the approach.Results show that the proposed features significantly reduce dimensionality and computational cost while substantially lowering SOH error,achieving an average normalized root mean square error of 2.3%.The RUL prediction reaches an average error of 14.8%.Overall,the framework balances interpretability,robustness,and feasibility,providing a practical solution for battery management systems(BMS)monitoring and life prediction.

文摘Hard disk drives(HDDs)serve as the primary storage devices in modern data centers.Once a failure occurs,it often leads to severe data loss,significantly degrading the reliability of storage systems.Numerous studies have proposed machine learning-based HDD failure prediction models.However,the Self-Monitoring,Analysis,and Reporting Technology(SMART)attributes differ across HDD manufacturers.We define hard drives of the same brand and model as homogeneous HDD groups,and those from different brands or models as heterogeneous HDD groups.In practical engineering scenarios,a data center is often composed of a heterogeneous population of HDDs,spanning multiple vendors and models.Existing research predominantly focuses on homogeneous datasets,ignoring the model’s generalization capability across heterogeneous HDDs.As a result,HDD models with limited samples often suffer from poor training effectiveness and prediction performance.To address this issue,we investigate generalizable SMART predictors across heterogeneous HDD groups.By extracting time-series features within a fixed sliding time window,we propose a Heterogeneous Disk Failure Prediction Method based on Time Series Features(HDFPM)framework.This method is adaptable to HDD models with limited sample sizes,thereby enhancing its applicability and robustness across diverse drive populations.Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves an F1-score of 0.9518 when applied to two different Seagate HDD models,while maintaining the False Positive Rate(FPR)below 1%.After incorporating the Complexity-Ratio Dynamic Time Warping(CDTW)based feature enhancement method,the best prediction model achieves a True Positive Rate(TPR)of up to 0.93 between the two models.For next-day failure prediction across various Seagate models,the model achieves an F1-score of up to 0.8792.Moreover,the experimental results also show that within the same brand,the higher the proportion of shared SMART attributes across different models,the better the prediction performance.In addition,HDFPMdemonstrates the best stability andmost significant performance in heterogeneous environments.
文摘In the field of intelligent air combat,real-time and accurate recognition of within-visual-range(WVR)maneuver actions serves as the foundational cornerstone for constructing autonomous decision-making systems.However,existing methods face two major challenges:traditional feature engineering suffers from insufficient effective dimensionality in the feature space due to kinematic coupling,making it difficult to distinguish essential differences between maneuvers,while end-to-end deep learning models lack controllability in implicit feature learning and fail to model high-order long-range temporal dependencies.This paper proposes a trajectory feature pre-extraction method based on a Long-range Masked Autoencoder(LMAE),incorporating three key innovations:(1)Random Fragment High-ratio Masking(RFH-Mask),which enforces the model to learn long-range temporal correlations by masking 80%of trajectory data while retaining continuous fragments;(2)Kalman Filter-Guided Objective Function(KFG-OF),integrating trajectory continuity constraints to align the feature space with kinematic principles;and(3)Two-stage Decoupled Architecture,enabling efficient and controllable feature learning through unsupervised pre-training and frozen-feature transfer.Experimental results demonstrate that LMAE significantly improves the average recognition accuracy for 20-class maneuvers compared to traditional end-to-end models,while significantly accelerating convergence speed.The contributions of this work lie in:introducing high-masking-rate autoencoders into low-informationdensity trajectory analysis,proposing a feature engineering framework with enhanced controllability and efficiency,and providing a novel technical pathway for intelligent air combat decision-making systems.

文摘Phishing email detection represents a critical research challenge in cybersecurity.To address this,this paper proposes a novel Double-S(statistical-semantic)feature model based on three core entities involved in email communication:the sender,recipient,and email content.We employ strategic game theory to analyze the offensive strategies of phishing attackers and defensive strategies of protectors,extracting statistical features from these entities.We also leverage the Qwen large language model to excavate implicit semantic features(e.g.,emotional manipulation and social engineering tactics)from email content.By integrating statistical and semantic features,our model achieves a robust representation of phishing emails.We introduce a hybrid detection model that integrates a convolutional neural network(CNN)module with the XGBoost(Extreme Gradient Boosting)classifier,effectively capturing local correlations in high-dimensional features.Experimental results on real-world phishing email datasets demonstrate the superiority of our approach,achieving an F1-score of 0.9587,precision of 0.9591,and recall of 0.9583,representing improvements of 1.3%–10.6%compared to state-of-the-art methods.

文摘By integrating self-localization,environment mapping,and dynamic object tracking into a unified framework,visual simultaneous localization and mapping with multiple object tracking(SLAMMOT)enhances decision-making and interaction capabilities in applications such as autonomous driving,robotic navigation,and augmented reality.While numerous outstanding visual SLAMMOT methods have been proposed,the majority rely only on point features,overlooking the abundant and stable planar features in artificial objects that can provide valuable constraints.To address this limitation,we propose OP(object planar)-SLAM,an RGB-D SLAMMOT system that leverages planar features to improve object pose estimation and reconstruction accuracy.Specifically,we introduce an accurate object planar feature extraction and association method using normal images,alongside a novel object bundle adjustment framework that incorporates planar constraints for enhanced optimization.The proposed system is evaluated on both synthetic and public real-world datasets,including Oxford multimotion dataset(OMD)and KITTI tracking dataset.Especially on the OMD,where planar features are prominent,our method improves object pose estimation accuracy by approximately 60%.Extensive experiments demonstrate its effectiveness in enhancing object pose estimation and reconstruction,achieving notable performance compared with existing methods.Furthermore,OP-SLAM runs in real time,making it suitable for practical robots and augmented reality applications.

文摘Human Action Recognition(HAR)is an active research topic in machine learning for the last few decades.Visual surveillance,robotics,and pedestrian detection are the main applications for action recognition.Computer vision researchers have introduced many HAR techniques,but they still face challenges such as redundant features and the cost of computing.In this article,we proposed a new method for the use of deep learning for HAR.In the proposed method,video frames are initially pre-processed using a global contrast approach and later used to train a deep learning model using domain transfer learning.The Resnet-50 Pre-Trained Model is used as a deep learning model in this work.Features are extracted from two layers:Global Average Pool(GAP)and Fully Connected(FC).The features of both layers are fused by the Canonical Correlation Analysis(CCA).Then features are selected using the Shanon Entropy-based threshold function.The selected features are finally passed to multiple classifiers for final classification.Experiments are conducted on five publicly available datasets as IXMAS,UCF Sports,YouTube,UT-Interaction,and KTH.The accuracy of these data sets was 89.6%,99.7%,100%,96.7%and 96.6%,respectively.Comparison with existing techniques has shown that the proposed method provides improved accuracy for HAR.Also,the proposed method is computationally fast based on the time of execution.
文摘Considering that real communication signals corrupted by noise are generally nonstationary, and timefrequency distributions are especially suitable for the analysis of nonstationary signals, time-frequency distributions are introduced for the modulation classification of communication signals: The extracted time-frequency features have good classification information, and they are insensitive to signal to noise ratio (SNR) variation. According to good classification by the correct rate of a neural network classifier, a multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifier with better generalization, as well as, addition of time-frequency features set for classifying six different modulation types has been proposed. Computer simulations show that the MLP classifier outperforms the decision-theoretic classifier at low SNRs, and the classification experiments for real MPSK signals verify engineering significance of the MLP classifier.
文摘The stiff and fragile structure of thermosetting polymers, such as epoxy, accomplices the innate cracks to cause fracture and therefore the applications of monolithic epoxy are not ubiquitous. However, it is well established that when reinforced especially by nano-fillers, its ability to withstand crack propagation is propitiously improved. The crack is either deflected or bifurcated when interacting with strong nano-filler such as Multi-Layer Graphene (MLG). Due to the deflection and bifurcation of cracks, specific fracture patterns are observed. Although these fracture patterns seem aesthetically appealing, however, if delved deeper, they can further be used to estimate the influence of nano-filler on the mechanical properties. Here we show that, by a meticulous examination of topographical features of fractured patterns, various important aspects related to fillers can be approximated such as dispersion state, interfacial interactions, presence of agglomerates, and overall influence of the incorporation of filler on the mechanical properties of nanocomposites.

文摘In the textile industry,the presence of defects on the surface of fabric is an essential factor in determining fabric quality.Therefore,identifying fabric defects forms a crucial part of the fabric production process.Traditional fabric defect detection algorithms can only detect specific materials and specific fabric defect types;in addition,their detection efficiency is low,and their detection results are relatively poor.Deep learning-based methods have many advantages in the field of fabric defect detection,however,such methods are less effective in identifying multiscale fabric defects and defects with complex shapes.Therefore,we propose an effective algorithm,namely multilayer feature extraction combined with deformable convolution(MFDC),for fabric defect detection.In MFDC,multi-layer feature extraction is used to fuse the underlying location features with high-level classification features through a horizontally connected top-down architecture to improve the detection of multi-scale fabric defects.On this basis,a deformable convolution is added to solve the problem of the algorithm’s weak detection ability of irregularly shaped fabric defects.In this approach,Roi Align and Cascade-RCNN are integrated to enhance the adaptability of the algorithm in materials with complex patterned backgrounds.The experimental results show that the MFDC algorithm can achieve good detection results for both multi-scale fabric defects and defects with complex shapes,at the expense of a small increase in detection time.

文摘At present,the emerging solid-phase friction-based additive manufacturing technology,including friction rolling additive man-ufacturing(FRAM),can only manufacture simple single-pass components.In this study,multi-layer multi-pass FRAM-deposited alumin-um alloy samples were successfully prepared using a non-shoulder tool head.The material flow behavior and microstructure of the over-lapped zone between adjacent layers and passes during multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition were studied using the hybrid 6061 and 5052 aluminum alloys.The results showed that a mechanical interlocking structure was formed between the adjacent layers and the adja-cent passes in the overlapped center area.Repeated friction and rolling of the tool head led to different degrees of lateral flow and plastic deformation of the materials in the overlapped zone,which made the recrystallization degree in the left and right edge zones of the over-lapped zone the highest,followed by the overlapped center zone and the non-overlapped zone.The tensile strength of the overlapped zone exceeded 90%of that of the single-pass deposition sample.It is proved that although there are uneven grooves on the surface of the over-lapping area during multi-layer and multi-pass deposition,they can be filled by the flow of materials during the deposition of the next lay-er,thus ensuring the dense microstructure and excellent mechanical properties of the overlapping area.The multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition overcomes the limitation of deposition width and lays the foundation for the future deposition of large-scale high-performance components.

文摘The wheat above-ground biomass(AGB)is an important index that shows the life activity of vegetation,which is of great significance for wheat growth monitoring and yield prediction.Traditional biomass estimation methods specifically include sample surveys and harvesting statistics.Although these methods have high estimation accuracy,they are time-consuming,destructive,and difficult to implement to monitor the biomass at a large scale.The main objective of this study is to optimize the traditional remote sensing methods to estimate the wheat AGBbased on improved convolutional features(CFs).Low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles(UAV)were used as the main data acquisition equipment.This study acquired image data acquired by RGB camera(RGB)and multi-spectral(MS)image data of the wheat population canopy for two wheat varieties and five key growth stages.Then,field measurements were conducted to obtain the actual wheat biomass data for validation.Based on the remote sensing indices(RSIs),structural features(SFs),and CFs,this study proposed a new feature named AUR-50(multi-source combination based on convolutional feature optimization)to estimate the wheat AGB.The results show that AUR-50 could estimate the wheat AGB more accurately than RSIs and SFs,and the average R^(2) exceeded 0.77.In the overwintering period,AUR-50_(MS)(multi-source combination with convolutional feature optimization using multispectral imagery)had the highest estimation accuracy(R^(2) of 0.88).In addition,AUR-50 reduced the effect of the vegetation index saturation on the biomass estimation accuracy by adding CFs,where the highest R^(2) was 0.69 at the flowering stage.The results of this study provide an effective method to evaluate the AGB in wheat with high throughput and a research reference for the phenotypic parameters of other crops.

文摘In the early exploration of many oilfields,low-resistivity-low-contrast(LRLC)pay zones are easily overlooked due to the resistivity similarity to the water zones.Existing identification methods are model-driven and cannot yield satisfactory results when the causes of LRLC pay zones are complicated.In this study,after analyzing a large number of core samples,main causes of LRLC pay zones in the study area are discerned,which include complex distribution of formation water salinity,high irreducible water saturation due to micropores,and high shale volume.Moreover,different oil testing layers may have different causes of LRLC pay zones.As a result,in addition to the well log data of oil testing layers,well log data of adjacent shale layers are also added to the original dataset as reference data.The densitybased spatial clustering algorithm with noise(DBSCAN)is used to cluster the original dataset into 49 clusters.A new dataset is ultimately projected into a feature space with 49 dimensions.The new dataset and oil testing results are respectively treated as input and output to train the multi-layer perceptron(MLP).A total of 3192 samples are used for stratified 8-fold cross-validation,and the accuracy of the MLP is found to be 85.53%.
