It also plays an important role filtering urban water systems and reducing storm water runoff.Methods: We investigate the capacity of ALS data to individually detect, map and characterize large(taller than15 m) trees within the City of Vancouver. Large trees are critical for the function and character of Vancouver’s urban forest. We used an object-based approach for individual tree detection and segmentation to determine tree locations(position of the stem), to delineate the shape of the crowns and to categorize the latter either as coniferous or deciduous.Results: Results indicate a detection rate of 76.6% for trees > 15 m with a positioning error of 2.11 m(stem location). Extracted tree heights possessed a RMSE of 2.60 m and a bias of-1.87 m, whereas crown diameter was derived with a RMSE of 3.85 m and a bias of-2.06 m. Missed trees are principally a result of undetected treetops occurring in dense, overlapping canopies with more accurate detection and delineation of trees in open areas.Conclusion: By identifying key structural trees across Vancouver’s urban forests, we can better understand their role in providing ecosystem goods and services for city residents.展开更多

Our developed compact multi-gel system, HEGS (high efficiency genome scanning) is a high-throughput and high-cost-performance electrophoresis apparatus. Using this system, a high-density (average interval 2.3 cM) map with 1 065 AFLP and 63 SSR markers was constructed from recombinant inbred lines of a japonica and indica hybrid in just two months of electrophoreses by a single person. More than 50% of the mapped AFLP markers were commonly polymorphic for several combinations between japonica and indica rice and 15% were applicable for genetically closer crosses between upland and lowland types of japonica rice. This system can be used for rapid analyses of all kinds of markers.展开更多

However, existing dynamic IP address assignment approaches suffer from two limitations, namely: participation of terminals in the assignment and inadequate network server management. Thus, in this paper, we propose an Overall-transparent Dynamic Identifier-mapping Mechanism(ODIM) to manage the identifier of network nodes to defend against scanning and worm propagation in the Smart Identifier NETwork(SINET). We establish the selection and allocation constraints, and present selection and allocation algorithms to determine the constraints. The non-repetition probability and cover cycle allow us to evaluate the defense efficiency against scanning. We propose the probability for routing identifiers and derive the defense efficiency of ODIM against worm propagation. Simulation results and theoretical analysis show that the proposed method effectively reduces the detection probability of Routing IDentifiers(RIDs) and thus improves defense capabilities against worm propagation.展开更多
