However, this task faces the challenges of complicated design shapes as well as cumbersome and cluttered annotations on drawings, which interfere with the vector extraction heavily. In this article, the transmission tower containing the most complex structure is taken as the research object, and a semantic segmentation network is constructed to first segment the shape masks from the pixel-level drawings. Preprocessing and postprocessing are also proposed to ensure the stability and accuracy of the shape mask segmentation. Then, based on the obtained shape masks, a vector extraction network guided by heatmaps is designed to extract structural vectors by fusing the features from node heatmap and skeleton heatmap, respectively. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, experiment results illustrate that the proposed semantic segmentation method can effectively eliminate the interference of many elements on drawings to segment the shape masks effectively, meanwhile, the model trained by the proposed vector extraction network can accurately extract the vectors such as nodes and line connections, avoiding redundant vector detection. The proposed method lays a solid foundation for automatic 3D model reconstruction and contributes to technological advancements in relevant fields.展开更多

文摘This research pioneers the integration of geographic information systems(GIS)and 3D modeling within a virtual reality(VR)framework to assess the viability and planning of a 20 MW hybrid wind-solarphotovoltaic(PV)system connected to the local grid.The study focuses on Dakhla,Morocco,a region with vast untapped renewable energy potential.By leveraging GIS,we are innovatively analyzing geographical and environmental factors that influence optimal site selection and system design.The incorporation of VR technologies offers an unprecedented level of realism and immersion,allowing stakeholders to virtually experience the project's impact and design in a dynamic,interactive environment.This novel methodology includes extensive data collection,advanced modeling,and simulations,ensuring that the hybrid system is precisely tailored to the unique climatic and environmental conditions of Dakhla.Our analysis reveals that the region possesses a photovoltaic solar potential of approximately2400 k Wh/m^(2) per year,with an average annual wind power density of about 434 W/m^(2) at an 80-meter hub height.Productivity simulations indicate that the 20 MW hybrid system could generate approximately 60 GWh of energy per year and 1369 GWh over its 25-year lifespan.To validate these findings,we employed the System Advisor Model(SAM)software and the Global Solar Photovoltaic Atlas platform.This comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach not only provides a robust assessment of the system's feasibility but also offers valuable insights into its potential socio-economic and environmental impact.

文摘Control signaling is mandatory for the operation and management of all types of communication networks,including the Third Generation Partnership Project(3GPP)mobile broadband networks.However,they consume important and scarce network resources such as bandwidth and processing power.There have been several reports of these control signaling turning into signaling storms halting network operations and causing the respective Telecom companies big financial losses.This paper draws its motivation from such real network disaster incidents attributed to signaling storms.In this paper,we present a thorough survey of the causes,of the signaling storm problems in 3GPP-based mobile broadband networks and discuss in detail their possible solutions and countermeasures.We provide relevant analytical models to help quantify the effect of the potential causes and benefits of their corresponding solutions.Another important contribution of this paper is the comparison of the possible causes and solutions/countermeasures,concerning their effect on several important network aspects such as architecture,additional signaling,fidelity,etc.,in the form of a table.This paper presents an update and an extension of our earlier conference publication.To our knowledge,no similar survey study exists on the subject.

文摘Given the severe toxicity and widespread presence of cadmium(Cd)in staple foods such as rice,accurate dietary exposure assessments are imperative for public health.In vitro bioavailability is commonly used to adjust dietary exposure levels of risk factors;however,traditional planar Transwell models have limitations,such as cell dedifferentiation and lack of key intestinal components,necessitating a more physiologically relevant in vitro platform.This study introduces an innovative three-dimensional(3D)intestinal organoid model using a microfluidic chip to evaluate Cd bioavailability in food.Caco-2 cells were cultured on the chip to mimic small intestinal villi's 3D structure,mucus production,and absorption functions.The model's physiological relevance was thoroughly characterized,demonstrating the formation of a confluent epithelial monolayer with well-developed tight junctions(ZO-1),high microvilli density(F-actin),and significant mucus secretion(Alcian blue staining),closely resembling the physiological intestinal epithelium.Fluorescent particle tracking confirmed its ability to simulate intestinal transport and diffusion.The Cd bioavailability in rice measured by the 3D intestinal organoid model((9.07±0.21)%)was comparable to the mouse model((12.82±3.42)%)but significantly lower than the Caco-2 monolayer model((26.97±1.11)%).This 3D intestinal organoid model provides a novel and reliable strategy for in vitro assessment of heavy metal bioavailability in food,with important implications for food safety and risk assessment.

文摘In modern architectural design,as complexity increases and diverse demands emerge,reconstructing 3D spaces has become a crucial method.However,existing methods remain limited to small-scale scenarios and exhibit poor reconstruction accuracy when applied to building-scale environments,resulting in unstable mesh quality and reduced design productivity.Furthermore,the lack of real-time,interactive editing tools prolongs design iteration cycles and impedes workflow efficiency.To address this issue,we propose the following contributions:(1)We construct ArchiNet++,an architectural dataset that includes 710,180 multi-view images,5200 SketchUp models,and corresponding camera parameters from the conceptual design phase of architectural projects.(2)We introduce Drag2Build++,an interactive 3D mesh reconstruction framework featuring drag-based editing and three core innovations:a differentiable geometry module for fine-grained deformation,a 2D-3D rendering bridge for supervision,and a GAN-based refinement module for photorealistic texture synthesis.(3)Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our model excels in generating highquality 3D meshes and enables rapid mesh editing via drag-based interactions.Furthermore,by incorporating textured mesh generation into this interactive workflow,it improves both efficiency and modeling flexibility.We hope this combination can contribute to a more intuitive modeling process and offer a practical tool set that supports the digital transformation efforts within architectural design.
文摘With the widespread application of 3D visualization in digital exhibition halls and virtual reality,achieving efficient rendering and high-fidelity presentation has become a key challenge.This study proposes a hybrid point cloud generation method that combines traditional sampling with 3D Gaussian splatting,aiming to address the issues of rendering delay and missing details in existing 3D displays.By improving the OBJ model parsing process and incorporating an adaptive area-weighted sampling algorithm,we achieve adaptive point cloud generation based on triangle density.Innovatively,we advance the ellipsoidal parameter estimation process of 3D Gaussian splatting to the point cloud generation stage.By establishing a mathematical relationship between the covariance matrix and local curvature,the generated point cloud naturally exhibits Gaussian distribution characteristics.Experimental results show that,compared to traditional methods,our approach reduces point cloud data by 38% while maintaining equivalent visual quality at a 4096×4096 texture resolution.By introducing mipmap texture optimization strategies and a GPU-accelerated rasterization pipeline,stable rendering at 60 frames per second is achieved in a WebGL environment.Additionally,we quantize and compress the spherical harmonic function parameters specific to 3D Gaussian splatting,reducing network transmission bandwidth to 52% of the original data.This study provides a new technical pathway for fields requiring high-precision display,such as the digitization of cultural heritage.

文摘Integrated Sensing and Communication(ISAC)is considered a key technology in 6G networks.An accurate sensing channel model is crucial for the design and sensing performance evaluation of ISAC systems.The widely used Geometry-Based Stochastic Model(GBSM),typically applied in standardized channel modeling,mainly focuses on the statistical fading characteristics of the channel.However,it fails to capture the characteristics of targets in ISAC systems,such as their positions and velocities,as well as the impact of the targets on the background.To address this issue,this paper proposes an Extended-GBSM(E-GBSM)sensing channel model that incorporates newly discovered channel characteristics into a unified modeling framework.In this framework,the sensing channel is divided into target and background channels.For the target channel,the model introduces a concatenated modeling approach,while for the background channel,a parameter called the power control factor is introduced to assess impact of the target on the background channel,making the modeling framework applicable to both mono-static and bi-static sensing modes.To validate the proposed model’s effectiveness,measurements of target and background channels are conducted across a wide range of indoor and outdoor scenarios,covering various sensing targets such as metal plates,reconfigurable intelligent surfaces,human bodies,unmanned aerial vehicles,and vehicles.The experimental results provide important theoretical support and empirical data for the standardization of ISAC channel modeling.

文摘Accurate retrieval of casting 3D models is crucial for process reuse.Current methods primarily focus on shape similarity,neglecting process design features,which compromises reusability.In this study,a novel deep learning retrieval method for process reuse was proposed,which integrates process design features into the retrieval of casting 3D models.This method leverages the comparative language-image pretraining(CLIP)model to extract shape features from the three views and sectional views of the casting model and combines them with process design features such as modulus,main wall thickness,symmetry,and length-to-height ratio to enhance process reusability.A database of 230 production casting models was established for model validation.Results indicate that incorporating process design features improves model accuracy by 6.09%,reaching 97.82%,and increases process similarity by 30.25%.The reusability of the process was further verified using the casting simulation software EasyCast.The results show that the process retrieved after integrating process design features produces the least shrinkage in the target model,demonstrating this method’s superior ability for process reuse.This approach does not require a large dataset for training and optimization,making it highly applicable to casting process design and related manufacturing processes.

文摘Anticancer drug resistance remains a major challenge in cancer treatment hindering the efficacy of chemotherapy and targeted therapies.Conventional two-dimensional(2D)cell cultures cannot replicate the complexity of the in vivo tumor microenvironment(TME),limiting their utility for drug resistance research.Therefore,three-dimensional(3D)tumor models have proven to be a promising alternative for investigating chemoresistance mechanisms.In this review,various cancer 3D models,including spheroids,organoids,scaffold-based models,and bioprinted models,are comprehensively evaluated with a focus on their application in drug resistance studies.We discuss the materials,properties,and advantages of each model,highlighting their ability to better mimic the TME and represent complex mechanisms of drug resistance such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT),drug efflux,and tumor-stroma interactions.Furthermore,we investigate the limitations of these models,including scalability,reproducibility and technical challenges,as well as their potential therapeutic impact on personalized medicine.Through a thorough comparison of model performance,we provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each approach and offer guidance for model selection based on specific research needs.

文摘Although Quercus mongolica is a widely distributed,economically and ecologically important deciduous tree in northern China,models to accurately predict stand growth at a regional scale are limited.The physiological process model(3-PG)has the potential to predict stand growth dynamics under varying site conditions and climate change scenarios.Here,we used field inventory,tree ring sampling,and Bayesian calibration to parameterize a model for Q.mongolica.Stand volume and productivity were then predicted under present conditions and three future climate scenarios(RCP26,RCP45 and RCP85).Our results demonstrated that after Bayesian calibration,the posterior ranges of the sensitivity parameters apha Cx,wSx1000 and pRn accounted for 34%,45%and 65%,respectively,of their prior range.Calibration and validation results revealed a strong correlation between predicted and measured values(R^(2)>0.87,P<0.01),with<20%bias for all growth indicators.Stand volume was projected to increase by 145%and productivity by 80%by the year 2100 under the RCP85 scenario,although these projections may vary across regions.The present study developed a tailored set of 3-PG model parameters for Q.mongolica,based on a comprehensive range of climate conditions,stand structure,and age classes.These parameters offer a scientific basis to accurately predict growth of other monospecific oak or mixed-species stands.

文摘Accurate vector extraction from design drawings is required first to automatically create 3D models from pixel-level engineering design drawings. However, this task faces the challenges of complicated design shapes as well as cumbersome and cluttered annotations on drawings, which interfere with the vector extraction heavily. In this article, the transmission tower containing the most complex structure is taken as the research object, and a semantic segmentation network is constructed to first segment the shape masks from the pixel-level drawings. Preprocessing and postprocessing are also proposed to ensure the stability and accuracy of the shape mask segmentation. Then, based on the obtained shape masks, a vector extraction network guided by heatmaps is designed to extract structural vectors by fusing the features from node heatmap and skeleton heatmap, respectively. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, experiment results illustrate that the proposed semantic segmentation method can effectively eliminate the interference of many elements on drawings to segment the shape masks effectively, meanwhile, the model trained by the proposed vector extraction network can accurately extract the vectors such as nodes and line connections, avoiding redundant vector detection. The proposed method lays a solid foundation for automatic 3D model reconstruction and contributes to technological advancements in relevant fields.
