The filter exhibits two typical band-stop response characteristics depending on the incident direction of electric field with respect to the T-shaped resonator. When the long and the short arms of the T-shaped resonator were electrically polarized by changing the incident THz wave transmission directions, the corresponding central frequencies of the band-stop filter were found to be 0.436 THz at 42dB and 0.610 THz at 28 dB, respectively. Using three-dimensional (3D) finite-integral time-domain simulations, the band-stop filter was designed, which can operate in the wavelength between 0.2 and 0.8 THz. Experimental verification was also performed using a free space THz time-domain spectroscopy system. The band-stop response characteristics are in good agreement with the simulation results. The interesting THz band-stop filtering properties suggest a promising application in the modern THz communication systems, THz time-domain spectroscopic imaging and THz continuous wave imaging.展开更多

The filter has two band gap centers at 4.9 GHz and 7.35 GHz, respectively, where the two centre frequencies are just the second and third harmonics 2.45 GHz. The filters with high band-stop performance and wideband spurious suppression can be achieved by cascading miniaturized unsymmetrical T-shape DGS. The attenuation of three-cascaded T-shape DGS filter is 30.77 dB at 4.9 GHz and 17.96 dB at 7.35 GHz respectively. The above experimental results are in good agreement with the simulation results, especially for the third harmonic.展开更多

Linear and nonlinear media are used in the resonator respectively. By varying the refractive index of the linear medium, the transmission properties can be changed obviously, and the effect caused by changing the incident intensity with a nonlinear medium is similar. Several resonant modes that are applicable can be enhanced by changing the position of the gap of the split ring. Thus, the transmission properties can be modulated by adjusting the size of the gap, varying the refractive index, and changing the incident intensity of the input light. These methods may play significant roles in applications of optical integrated circuits and nanostructural devices.展开更多

文摘Recommendation systems are an integral and indispensable part of every digital platform,as they can suggest content or items to users based on their respective needs.Collaborative filtering is a technique often used in various studies,which produces recommendations by analyzing similarities between users and items based on their behavior.Although often used,traditional collaborative filtering techniques still face the main challenge of sparsity.Sparsity problems occur when the data in the system is sparse,meaning that only a portion of users provide feedback on some items,resulting in inaccurate recommendations generated by the system.To overcome this problem,we developed aHybrid Collaborative Filtering model based onMatrix Factorization andGradient Boosting(HCF-MFGB),a new hybrid approach.Our proposed model integrates SVD++,the XGBoost ensemble learning algorithm,and utilizes user demographic data and meta items.We utilize information,both explicitly and implicitly,to learn user preference patterns using SVD++.The XGBoost algorithm is used to create hundreds of decision trees incrementally,thereby improving model accuracy.Meanwhile,user demographic and meta-item data are clustered using the K-Means Clustering algorithm to capture similarities in user and item characteristics.This combination is designed to improve rating prediction accuracy by reducing reliance on minimal explicit rating data,while addressing sparsity issues in movie recommendation systems.The results of experiments on the MovieLens 100K,MovieLens 1M,and CiaoDVD datasets show significant improvements,outperforming various other baselinemodels in terms of RMSE and MAE.On theMovieLens 100K dataset,the HCF-MFGB model obtained an RMSE value of 0.853 and an MAE value of 0.674.On theMovieLens 1M dataset,the HCF-MFGB model obtained an RMSE value of 0.763 and an MAE value of 0.61.On the CiaoDCD dataset,the HCF-MFGB model achieved an RMSE value of 0.718 and an MAE value of 0.495.These results confirm a significant improvement in movie recommendation accuracy with the proposed approach.
文摘This article presents an adaptive intelligent control strategy applied to a lumped-parameter evaporator model,i.e.,a simplified dynamic representation treating the evaporator as a single thermal node with uniform temperature distribution,suitable for control design due to its balance between physical fidelity and computational simplicity.The controller uses a wavelet-based neural proportional,integral,derivative(PID)controller with IIR filtering(infinite impulse response).The dynamic model captures the essential heat and mass transfer phenomena through a nonlinear energy balance,where the cooling capacity“Qevap”is expressed as a non-linear function of the compressor frequency and the temperature difference,specifically,Q_(evap)=k_(1)u(T_(in)−T_(e))with u as compressor frequency,Te evaporator temperature,and Tin inlet fluid temperature.The operating conditions of the system,in general terms,focus on the following variables,the overall thermal capacity is 1000 J/K,typical for small-capacity heat exchangers,The mass flow is 0.05 kg/s,typical for secondary liquid cooling circuits,the overall loss coefficient of 50 W/K that corresponds to small evaporators with partial insulation,the temperatures(inlet)of 10℃and the temperature of environment of 25℃,thermal load of 200 W that corresponds to a small-scaled air conditioning applications.To handle system nonlinearities and improve control performance,aMorlet wavelet-based neural network(Wavenet)is used to dynamically adjust the PID gains online.An IIR filter is incorporated to smooth the adaptive gains,improving stability and reducing oscillations.In contrast to prior wavelet-or neural-adaptive PID controllers in HVAC applications,which typically adjust gains without explicit filtering or not tailored to evaporator dynamics,this work introduces the first PID–Wavenet scheme augmented with an IIR-based stabilization layer,specifically designed to address the combined challenges of nonlinear evaporator behavior,gain oscillation,and real-time implementability.The proposed controller(PID-Wavenet+IIR)is implemented and validated inMATLAB/Simulink,demonstrating superior performance compared to a conventional PID tuned using Simulink’s auto-tuning function.Key results include a reduction in settling time from 13.3 to 8.2 s,a reduction in overshoot from 3.5%to 0.8%,a reduction in steady-state error from 0.12℃ to 0.02℃and a 13%reduction in energy overall consumption.The controller also exhibits greater robustness and adaptability under varying thermal loads.This explicit integration of wavelet-driven adaptation with IIR-filtered gain shaping constitutes the main methodological contribution and novelty of the work.These findings validate the effectiveness of the wavelet-based adaptive approach for advanced thermal management in refrigeration and HVAC systems,with potential applications in controlling variable-speed compressors,liquid chillers,and compact cooling units.

文摘A dual-band filtering push‒pull power amplifier(PA)with a large frequency ratio is presented in this paper.The proposed filtering power dividing/combining network is based on a hybrid-mode filtering balun using microstrip line(MSL)and substrate integrated waveguide(SIW).The MSL filtering balun operates in the S-band,with a frequency range of 2.6‒2.86 GHz.Meanwhile,the SIW filtering balun is designed for Ku-band operation,covering a frequency range of 13‒13.65 GHz.Under these conditions,the prototype is capable of attaining a frequency ratio as high as five times the original value.Due to the inherent differential characteristic of the hybrid-mode filtering balun with a large frequency ratio,the proposed push‒pull PA not only realizes filtering functionality but also achieves second-harmonic suppression.To validate the designed concept,the proposed prototype has been designed,fabricated,and measured.Measurement results demonstrate that the proposed PA achieves a 7 dB small-signal gain while maintaining out-of-band spurious rejection during active testing.The developed dual-band filtering push‒pull PA delivers excellent performance,with a peak output power of 36.8 dBm at low frequencies and 36 dBm at high frequencies.Moreover,by employing dual-band filtering baluns,the PA inherently suppresses even-order harmonics while simultaneously providing filtering characteristics in both operational bands,which effectively suppresses near-band spurious signals.

文摘This article proposes a generalized strongly coupled resonator quartet(GSCRQ)filter along with its synthesis approach.By introducing out-of-band reflection zeros(RZs),the proposed GSCRQ can generate a transmission zero on each side of the passband without negative couplings.The coupling coefficients in this coupling structure change with the positions of the out-of-band RZs.Thus,the GSCRQ configuration admits flexible design solutions.For GSCRQ coaxial combline filters,all couplings can be implemented as inductive couplings,simplifying the design and manufacturing process.In this article,a 6-2 filter in the GSCRQ configuration is synthesized and designed.The simulated results of the designed filter agree very well with the theoretical characteristics.

文摘Deep graph contrastive clustering has attracted widespread attentions due to its self-supervised representation learning paradigm and superior clustering performance.Although,two challenges emerge and result in high computational costs.Most existing contrastive methods adopt the data augmentation and then representation learning strategy,where representation learning with trainable graph convolution is coupled with complex and fixed data augmentation,inevitably limiting the efficiency and flexibility.The similarity metric between positive-negative sample pairs is complex and contrastive objective is partial,limiting the discriminability of representation learning.To solve these challenges,a novel wide graph clustering network(WGCN)adhering to representation and then augmentation framework is proposed,which mainly consists of multiorder filter fusion(MFF)and double-level contrastive learning(DCL)modules.Specifically,the MFF module integrates multiorder low-pass filters to extract smooth and multi-scale topological features,utilizing self-attention fusion to reduce redundancy and obtain comprehensive embedding representation.Further,the DCL module constructs two augmented views by the parallel parameter-unshared Siamese encoders rather than complex augmentations on graph.To achieve simple yet effective self-supervised learning,representation self-supervision and structural consistency oriented double-level contrastive loss is designed,where representation self-supervision maximizes the agreement between pairwise augmented embedding representations and structural consistency promotes the mutual information correlation between appending neighborhoods with similar semantics.Extensive experiments on six benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed WGCN,especially highlighting its time-saving characteristic.The code could be available in the https://github.com/Tianxiang Zhao0474/WGCN.

文摘Using microporous raw materials to prepare reticulated ceramic filters for molten steel purification is a novel strategy to enhance the purification efficiency.Steel immersion tests were conducted on two batches of periclase-spinel ceramic filters prepared from microporous magnesia raw material and α-Al_(2)O_(3) micro-powder,and their performance was compared with pure MgO filter.The results showed that the periclase-spinel filters exhibited superior performance.This was attributed to two factors:first,the spinel microparticles within the filter skeletons had a greater advantage over magnesia microparticles in adsorbing spinel inclusions with similar chemical composition from the steel;second,the in-situ generated spinel increased the surface roughness of the skeletons and raised the contact angle between the filter and molten steel,thereby improving purification efficiency.When theα-Al_(2)O_(3) micro-powder content was 15 wt.%,the filter demonstrated excellent purification efficiency,the Al_(2)O_(3) and MgAl_(2)O_(4) inclusions in the molten steel were effectively removed,with an overall inclusion removal efficiency of 83.1%,and the total oxygen content in the steel decreased from 37.5×10^(−6) to 5.7×10^(−6),with a reduction of 84.8%.

文摘In this paper, we present a terahertz (THz) band-stop filter realized by fabricating a metallic T-shaped resonator pattern on the high-resistivity silicon wafer. The filter exhibits two typical band-stop response characteristics depending on the incident direction of electric field with respect to the T-shaped resonator. When the long and the short arms of the T-shaped resonator were electrically polarized by changing the incident THz wave transmission directions, the corresponding central frequencies of the band-stop filter were found to be 0.436 THz at 42dB and 0.610 THz at 28 dB, respectively. Using three-dimensional (3D) finite-integral time-domain simulations, the band-stop filter was designed, which can operate in the wavelength between 0.2 and 0.8 THz. Experimental verification was also performed using a free space THz time-domain spectroscopy system. The band-stop response characteristics are in good agreement with the simulation results. The interesting THz band-stop filtering properties suggest a promising application in the modern THz communication systems, THz time-domain spectroscopic imaging and THz continuous wave imaging.

文摘A kind of dual-band-stop filter with an unsymmetrical T-shape defected ground structure （DGS） is proposed. The filter has two band gap centers at 4.9 GHz and 7.35 GHz, respectively, where the two centre frequencies are just the second and third harmonics 2.45 GHz. The filters with high band-stop performance and wideband spurious suppression can be achieved by cascading miniaturized unsymmetrical T-shape DGS. The attenuation of three-cascaded T-shape DGS filter is 30.77 dB at 4.9 GHz and 17.96 dB at 7.35 GHz respectively. The above experimental results are in good agreement with the simulation results, especially for the third harmonic.

文摘Novel band-stop filters with circular split-ring resonators based on the metal-insulator-metal （MIM） structure are presented, with their transmission properties of SPPs propagating through the filter simulated by the finite-difference time-domain （FDTD） method, The variation of the gap of the split ring can affect the transmission characteristics, i.e., the transmission spectrum of SPPs exhibiting a shift, which is useful for modulating the filter. Linear and nonlinear media are used in the resonator respectively. By varying the refractive index of the linear medium, the transmission properties can be changed obviously, and the effect caused by changing the incident intensity with a nonlinear medium is similar. Several resonant modes that are applicable can be enhanced by changing the position of the gap of the split ring. Thus, the transmission properties can be modulated by adjusting the size of the gap, varying the refractive index, and changing the incident intensity of the input light. These methods may play significant roles in applications of optical integrated circuits and nanostructural devices.

文摘With the rapid development of wireless techniques,the bandpass filter(BPF)is required to cover microwave and millimeter-wave frequency bands simultaneously with good mid-band suppression.However,it is difficult to implement such BPF due to the large frequency ratio and wideband rejection.This paper presents a superior method to realize a dual-band BPF with a large frequency ratio maintaining compact size and low design complexity.This is contributed by an ultra-wide stopband BPF with inherent discriminating excited degree at spurious frequencies.By properly arranging the feeding position and electrical length ratio of stepped impedance resonator(SIR),the excited degree at specific spurious frequencies can be flexibly adjusted to achieve desired suppression level without affecting characteristics at the fundamental passband.For validation,two BPFs were simulated,fabricated and measured,exhibiting suppression levels of 20.3 dB and 35 dB up to 18f0 and 10.53f0 respectively.Based on this,a dual-band BPF with a large frequency ratio can be easily constructed.For demonstration,a dual-band BPF operating at 3.55 GHz and 43.15 GHz is implemented.A frequency ratio up to 12.15 and mid-band suppression level better than 28 dB had been achieved.Advantages of compactness,simplicity and excellent performance of the proposed work can be observed.

文摘The surge of large-scale models in recent years has led to breakthroughs in numerous fields,but it has also introduced higher computational costs and more complex network architectures.These increasingly large and intricate networks pose challenges for deployment and execution while also exacerbating the issue of network over-parameterization.To address this issue,various network compression techniques have been developed,such as network pruning.A typical pruning algorithm follows a three-step pipeline involving training,pruning,and retraining.Existing methods often directly set the pruned filters to zero during retraining,significantly reducing the parameter space.However,this direct pruning strategy frequently results in irreversible information loss.In the early stages of training,a network still contains much uncertainty,and evaluating filter importance may not be sufficiently rigorous.To manage the pruning process effectively,this paper proposes a flexible neural network pruning algorithm based on the logistic growth differential equation,considering the characteristics of network training.Unlike other pruning algorithms that directly reduce filter weights,this algorithm introduces a three-stage adaptive weight decay strategy inspired by the logistic growth differential equation.It employs a gentle decay rate in the initial training stage,a rapid decay rate during the intermediate stage,and a slower decay rate in the network convergence stage.Additionally,the decay rate is adjusted adaptively based on the filter weights at each stage.By controlling the adaptive decay rate at each stage,the pruning of neural network filters can be effectively managed.In experiments conducted on the CIFAR-10 and ILSVRC-2012 datasets,the pruning of neural networks significantly reduces the floating-point operations while maintaining the same pruning rate.Specifically,when implementing a 30%pruning rate on the ResNet-110 network,the pruned neural network not only decreases floating-point operations by 40.8%but also enhances the classification accuracy by 0.49%compared to the original network.
