To address ...Accurate traffic flow prediction has a profound impact on modern traffic management. Traffic flow has complex spatial-temporal correlations and periodicity, which poses difficulties for precise prediction. To address this problem, a Multi-head Self-attention and Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network (MSSTGCN) for multiscale traffic flow prediction is proposed. Firstly, to capture the hidden traffic periodicity of traffic flow, traffic flow is divided into three kinds of periods, including hourly, daily, and weekly data. Secondly, a graph attention residual layer is constructed to learn the global spatial features across regions. Local spatial-temporal dependence is captured by using a T-GCN module. Thirdly, a transformer layer is introduced to learn the long-term dependence in time. A position embedding mechanism is introduced to label position information for all traffic sequences. Thus, this multi-head self-attention mechanism can recognize the sequence order and allocate weights for different time nodes. Experimental results on four real-world datasets show that the MSSTGCN performs better than the baseline methods and can be successfully adapted to traffic prediction tasks.展开更多

文摘Accurate traffic flow prediction has a profound impact on modern traffic management. Traffic flow has complex spatial-temporal correlations and periodicity, which poses difficulties for precise prediction. To address this problem, a Multi-head Self-attention and Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network (MSSTGCN) for multiscale traffic flow prediction is proposed. Firstly, to capture the hidden traffic periodicity of traffic flow, traffic flow is divided into three kinds of periods, including hourly, daily, and weekly data. Secondly, a graph attention residual layer is constructed to learn the global spatial features across regions. Local spatial-temporal dependence is captured by using a T-GCN module. Thirdly, a transformer layer is introduced to learn the long-term dependence in time. A position embedding mechanism is introduced to label position information for all traffic sequences. Thus, this multi-head self-attention mechanism can recognize the sequence order and allocate weights for different time nodes. Experimental results on four real-world datasets show that the MSSTGCN performs better than the baseline methods and can be successfully adapted to traffic prediction tasks.

文摘Osteoporosis is a major cause of bone fracture and can be characterised by both mass loss and microstructure deterioration of the bone.The modern way of osteoporosis assessment is through the measurement of bone mineral density,which is not able to unveil the pathological condition from the mesoscale aspect.To obtain mesoscale information from computed tomography(CT),the super-resolution(SR)approach for volumetric imaging data is required.A deep learning model AESR3D is proposed to recover high-resolution(HR)Micro-CT from low-resolution Micro-CT and implement an unsupervised segmentation for better trabecular observation and measurement.A new regularisation overcomplete autoencoder framework for the SR task is proposed and theoretically analysed.The best performance is achieved on structural similarity measure of trabecular CT SR task compared with the state-of-the-art models in both natural and medical image SR tasks.The HR and SR images show a high correlation(r=0.996,intraclass correlation coefficients=0.917)on trabecular bone morphological indicators.The results also prove the effectiveness of our regularisation framework when training a large capacity model.

文摘Energy resolution calibration is crucial for gamma-ray spectral analysis,as measured using a scintillation detector.A locally constrained regularization method was proposed to determine the resolution calibration parameters.First,a Monte Carlo simulation model consistent with an actual measurement system was constructed to obtain the energy deposition distribution in the scintillation crystal.Subsequently,the regularization objective function is established based on weighted least squares and additional constraints.Additional constraints were designed using a special weighting scheme based on the incident gamma-ray energies.Subsequently,an intelligent algorithm was introduced to search for the optimal resolution calibration parameters by minimizing the objective function.The most appropriate regularization parameter was determined through mathematical experiments.When the regularization parameter was 30,the calibrated results exhibited the minimum RMSE.Simulations and test pit experiments were conducted to verify the performance of the proposed method.The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can determine resolution calibration parameters more accurately than the traditional weighted least squares,and the test pit experimental results show that the R-squares between the calibrated and measured spectra are larger than 0.99.The accurate resolution calibration parameters determined by the proposed method lay the foundation for gamma-ray spectral processing and simulation benchmarking.
文摘Dispute resolution mechanisms play a critical role in sustaining collaborative efforts in space exploration,particularly in partnerships involving diverse stakeholders with varying interests.This study examines the legal framework governing dispute resolution within the Sino-Africa space cooperation,analyzing foundational principles,legal theories,international treaties,national legislation,and tailored conflict-resolution mechanisms.By assessing key legal instruments such as the Outer Space Treaty(1967)and the bilateral agreements,the research explores how arbitration,mediation and adjudication processes can address disputes arising from joint space endeavors.The study highlights the importance of structured legal and procedural frameworks in mitigating conflicts,ensuring compliance,and fostering longer-term cooperation between China and African nations in space exploration.Through this analysis,the study contributes to broader discussions on enhancing the efficacy of dispute resolution mechanisms in international space collaborations.

文摘Since 1960,there have been more than thirty UN peacekeeping missions across Africa,the most of any region in the context of the conflicts that have plagued the region for decades.It has become increasingly evident that official diplomacy is not enough to resolve these crises.Experience shows that given the people’s reliance on religion,religion has continued to act as a force of conflict prevention and resolution in the region.The role played by faith-based diplomats has gained the trust of the conflict parties such that it would be unwise for national and international actors to neglect their role in policy making and conflict prevention and resolution.

文摘A method is proposed for high-resolution neutron spectrum regulation across the entire energy domain.It was applied to in-reactor transuranic isotope production.This method comprises four modules:a neutron spectrum perturbation module,a neutron spectrum calculation module,a neutron spectrum valuation module,and an intelligent optimization module.It makes it possible to determine the optimal neutron spectrum for transuranic isotope production and a regulation scheme to establish this neutron spectrum within the reactor.The state-of-the-art production schemes for^(252)Cf and^(238)Pu in the High Flux Isotope Reactor were optimized,improving the yield of^(252)Cf by 12.16%and that of^(238)Pu by 7.53-25.84%.Moreover,the proposed optimization schemes only disperse certain nuclides into the targets without modifying the reactor design parameters,making them simple and feasible.The new method achieves efficient and precise neutron spectrum optimization,maximizing the production of transuranic isotopes.

文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG)can lead to complete resolution of hypertension in most patients with obesity within one year.However,the preoperative factors related to this resolution are still unclear.AIM To clarify the impact of relevant factors,particularly perirenal fat,on postoperative hypertension resolution.METHODS In this retrospective single-center study,a total of 138 patients with obesity and hypertension were included,all of whom underwent LSG in the hospital and were followed up for one year.Multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify independent risk factors for postoperative hypertension resolution.Generalized additive models were employed to clarify the nonlinear relationships between these factors and hypertension resolution,and their predictive values were compared using fivefold cross-validation.RESULTS After LSG,107 patients(77.5%)experienced hypertension resolution,while 31 patients(22.5%)did not achieve resolution.Both the preoperative perirenal fat area(PrFA)and perirenal fat thickness were independent risk factors for postoperative hypertension resolution(P<0.001 vs P=0.002).These factors are curvilinearly correlated with the hypertension resolution rate,but PrFA has a better predictive value than perirenal fat thickness dose(area under the curve=0.846 vs 0.809).Compared with those with PrFA≥18 cm2,patients with PrFA<18 cm2 had a higher hypertension resolution rate[87%vs 68.1%;odds ratio(95%confidence interval)=3.513(1.367-9.902),P=0.012].CONCLUSION PrFA is a preoperative predictor of postoperative hypertension resolution.It is curvilinearly associated with the resolution rate,and patients with PrFA<18 cm²have better hypertension resolution outcomes after LSG.
文摘Semi-crystalline polymer laser powder bed fusion(L-PBF)has recently attracted increasing interest due to its potential for fabricating complex geometry.However,a more comprehensive understanding of the underlying physics during L-PBF is required to better control the properties of the final part.This work proposed a multi-layer numerical model to study the temperature and phase evolution during the polyamide-12(PA12)L-PBF process.The Descend and Parallel Chord methods were introduced to improve the convergence of the non-linear thermal solver.The level-set-based mesh adaptation strategy,governed by multi-physical fields,was applied to alleviate the calculation and accurately track the phase evolution.The processing simulation on the dog-bone model revealed that preheating temperature significantly influences the crystallization behavior.Finally,the multi-layer simulation demonstrated that such a developed numerical model can be used to study the phase transformation during powder layer updating and the cyclic laser sintering phenomena.Moreover,the numerical study suggested that crystallization occurs slowly during the L-PBF process.

文摘Airborne hyperspectral imaging spectrometers have been used for Earth observation over the past four decades.Despite the high sensitivity of push-broom hyperspectral imagers,they experience limited swath and wavelength coverage.In this study,we report the development of a push-broom airborne multimodular imaging spectrometer(AMMIS)that spans ultraviolet(UV),visible near-infrared(VNIR),shortwave infrared(SWIR),and thermal infrared(TIR)wavelengths.As an integral part of China's HighResolution Earth Observation Program,AMMIS is intended for civilian applications and for validating key technologies for future spaceborne hyperspectral payloads.It has been mounted on aircraft platforms such as Y-5,Y-12,and XZ-60.Since 2016,AMMIS has been used to perform more than 30 flight campaigns and gather more than 200 TB of hyperspectral data.This study describes the system design,calibration techniques,performance tests,flight campaigns,and applications of the AMMIS.The system integrates UV,VNIR,SWIR,and TIR modules,which can be operated in combination or individually based on the application requirements.Each module includes three spectrometers,utilizing field-of-view(FOV)stitching technology to achieve a 40°FOV,thereby enhancing operational efficiency.We designed advanced optical systems for all modules,particularly for the TIR module,and employed cryogenic optical technology to maintain optical system stability at 100 K.Both laboratory and in-flight calibrations were conducted to improve preprocessing accuracy and produce high-quality hyperspectral data.The AMMIS features more than 1400 spectral bands,with spectral sampling intervals of 0.1 nm for UV,2.4 nm for VNIR,3 nm for SWIR,and 32 nm for TIR.In addition,the instantaneous fields of view(IFoVs)for the four modules were 0.5,0.25,0.5,and 1 mrad,respectively,with the VNIR module achieving an IFoV of 0.125 mrad in the high-spatial-resolution mode.This study reports on land-cover surveys,pollution gas detection,mineral exploration,coastal water detection,and plant investigations conducted using AMMIS,highlighting its excellent performance.Furthermore,we present three hyperspectral datasets with diverse scene distributions and categories suitable for developing artificial intelligence algorithms.This study paves the way for next-generation airborne and spaceborne hyperspectral payloads and serves as a valuable reference for hyperspectral sensor designers and data users.
文摘In this study we theoretically demonstrate ultrahigh-resolution two-dimensional atomic localization within a three-levelλ-type atomic medium via superposition of asymmetric and symmetric standing wave fields.Our analysis provides an understanding of the precise spatial localization of atomic positions at the atomic level,utilizing advanced theoretical approaches and principles of quantum mechanics.The dynamical behavior of a three-level atomic system is thoroughly analyzed using the density matrix formalism within the realm of quantum mechanics.A theoretical approach is constructed to describe the interaction between the system and external fields,specifically a control field and a probe field.The absorption spectrum of the probe field is thoroughly examined to clarify the spatial localization of the atom within the proposed configuration.A theoretical investigation found that symmetric and asymmetric superposition phenomena significantly influence the localized peaks within a two-dimensional spatial domain.Specifically,the emergence of one and two sharp localized peaks was observed within a one-wavelength domain.We observed notable influences of the intensity of the control field,probe field detuning and decay rates on atomic localization.Ultimately,we have achieved an unprecedented level of ultrahigh resolution and precision in localizing an atom within an area smaller thanλ/35×λ/35.These findings hold promise for potential applications in fields such as Bose-Einstein condensation,nanolithography,laser cooling,trapping of neutral atoms and the measurement of center-of-mass wave functions.
