Moreover, the gray scale centroid algorithm is applied to obtain the subpixel location of both uncoded and coded targets. The initial matching of the uncoded target correspondences between an image pair is established according to similarity and compatibility, which are based on the ID correspondences of the coded targets. The outliers in the initial matching of the uncoded target are eliminated according to three rules to finally obtain the uncoded target correspondences. Practical examples show that the algorithm is rapid, robust and is of high precision and matching ratio.展开更多

However, the complex correspondences, such as one-to-many and many-to-many ones, are usually ignored or cannot be established completely in the existing methods. Here, the essence of the complex correspondences will be analyzed. Based on the two characteristics of a straight line, which are introduced by regarding a straight line as a set of collinear points, the compatibility between the complex correspondences and the uniqueness constraint of point correspondence is proved and a new uniqueness constraint of correspondence for matching lines is proposed. Based on the analysis of the complex correspondences, a new concept of line feature group is defined to describe a set of integral correspondences among straight line features from different images and then a new algorithm for establishing all the correspondences completely is described simply. The experimental results with real stereo images illustrate that the complex correspondences among straight lines are actual cases and can be established effectively.展开更多

Business English that plays an increasingly important role in international trades is widely applied to commercial activities. However, because of insufficient practical experience, improper use of stylistics and interference of first language, sometimes it is difficult for students in school to have good command of business English correspondence. This dissertation has suggested learners several ways to improve their competence in international communications and the teaching and learning efficiency, by analyzing the stylistic features of business English correspondences and the problems collecting from the learners on the basis of the data of questionnaires.展开更多

文摘Objectives This study aimed to analyze the prevalence of long-term central line-associated bloodstream infections(CLABSI)among hospitalized adults with cancer in Italy and compare the characteristics of patients who required long-term central venous access device(LCVAD)substitution due to prior CLABSI with those who had never experienced CLABSI.Methods The study was conducted in hospitals across northern and central Italy using a multicenter,observational,cross-sectional design from March to September 2021.A total of 174 adults with cancer were included.Data were collected through electronic case report forms,including demographic,clinical,treatment-related,and catheter-related variables.Propensity score matching(PSM)was used to compare the characteristics of patients who underwent LCVAD substitution due to previous CLABSI with those who never experienced CLABSI.Multiple correspondence analysis(MCA)was conducted to explore the patterns within matched subgroups.Results The prevalence of CLABSI was 3%,and 5.2%of patients required LCVAD substitution due to prior CLABSI.After applying PSM,the groups were successfully balanced for sex,age,presence of metastases,comorbidities,BMI,received treatments,corticosteroid therapy,ongoing antibiotics,hormone therapy,type of LCVAD,lumens,and utilization frequency.Hematologic cancer was more frequent in the CLABSI group(44.4%)compared to the non-infective group(0),with a statistically significant difference(P=0.045).MCA revealed potential patterns among matched subgroups but did not identify statistically significant associations:patients with previous LCVAD substitution were more frequently associated with a history of prior infections,ongoing antibiotic therapy,and unspecified primary lesion locations;conversely,patients who never experienced CLABSI tended to cluster around characteristics such as hormone therapy and corticosteroid therapy.Conclusions These findings emphasize the importance of continuous monitoring,individualized infection prevention strategies in oncology nursing practice.Future research with larger datasets is needed to validate these findings and develop tailored interventions to reduce CLABSI risks.

文摘In-situ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM)is performed to investigate the de-formation behavior of hexagonal close-packed rhenium(Re)which is compressed along the{1-100}di-rection.Atomistic simulations are also conducted to better understand the deformation mechanisms.Two types of lattice reorientation are observed during compression.The first type involves the reori-entation of one lattice by∼90°around{11-20},which is accomplished by the formation of an interme-diate face-center-cubic(FCC)phase at the interface.This transformation sequence can be described as{1-100}matrix→{111}FCC→(0001)twin.In the second type,a new grain is formed but does not satisfy any known twin relationship with the matrix,and an intermediate FCC phase is also formed.The transfor-mation sequence can be described as{1¯101}matrix→{111}FCC→(0001)grain.Mechanisms responsible for the observed lattice reorientation and sequential phase transitions are analyzed by conducting lattice correspondence analyses on the simulation results.Strain accommodation is also analyzed to explain the mechanisms for lattice reorientation and the intermediate phase transformations.The results provide new insight into the deformation behavior of HCP metals.

文摘As one of the famous effects in the quantum Rabi model(QRM),Rabi oscillation may lead to the occurrence of quantum dynamical behaviors without classical dynamic counterparts,such as quantum collapse and revival effects.In this paper,we focus on studying the long-time quantum signatures of chaos in the large atom-light frequency ratios of the Rabi model.It is shown that the saturated values of the entanglement entropy for initial states located in chaotic sea are higher than that in the regular regions,and the Husimi Q function are more dispersed in phase space.Moreover,we observed that the long-time average entanglement entropy and spin variance correspond well with the semiclassical phase space.Our results imply that the correspondence principle is not invalidated by quantum collapse and revival effects in the large atom-light frequency ratios Rabi model.
文摘Monte Carlo(MC) simulations have been performed to refine the estimation of the correction-toscaling exponent ω in the 2D φ^(4)model,which belongs to one of the most fundamental universality classes.If corrections have the form ∝ L^(-ω),then we find ω=1.546(30) andω=1.509(14) as the best estimates.These are obtained from the finite-size scaling of the susceptibility data in the range of linear lattice sizes L ∈[128,2048] at the critical value of the Binder cumulant and from the scaling of the corresponding pseudocritical couplings within L∈[64,2048].These values agree with several other MC estimates at the assumption of the power-law corrections and are comparable with the known results of the ε-expansion.In addition,we have tested the consistency with the scaling corrections of the form ∝ L^(-4/3),∝L^(-4/3)In L and ∝L^(-4/3)/ln L,which might be expected from some considerations of the renormalization group and Coulomb gas model.The latter option is consistent with our MC data.Our MC results served as a basis for a critical reconsideration of some earlier theoretical conjectures and scaling assumptions.In particular,we have corrected and refined our previous analysis by grouping Feynman diagrams.The renewed analysis gives ω≈4-d-2η as some approximation for spatial dimensions d <4,or ω≈1.5 in two dimensions.
文摘Jātaka story paintings are common narrative subjects in Dunhuang murals.Based on corresponding scriptures,they present all kinds of good deeds that Sakyamuni sacrificed his life to save sentient beings in his previous life.Dunhuang Jātaka story paintings are highly consistent with the scriptures in content,but their intuitiveness and expressiveness are more prominent.By comparing the narrative relationship between Jātaka story paintings in the Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang and their corresponding scriptures,this study finds that the two have unity in reproducing artistic images and restoring key plots of classic Buddhist scripture stories,but there are great differences in the narrative effect.Dunhuang Jātaka story paintings have three prominent features in narrative,including visualization of key elements,concretization of expressions and movements,and contextualization of cause and effect.This study aims to reveal the intertextual narrative relationship between Dunhuang Jātaka story paintings and their corresponding scriptures.
