[Method] A sand culture experiment under salt stress of 150 mmol/L of NaCI was designed. The in- dicator weight was determined with the entropy weight fuzzy comprehensive evalu- ation method, based on the salt injury index of indicators. The salt tolerance of cotton was evaluated comprehensively. [Result] At the germination stage, the entropy and weight of salt injury index of germination energy, vigor index, hypocotyl length and fresh weight were highest, followed by germination rate and germination index, and of root length were lowest. At the seedling stage, the entropy and weight of salt injury index of plasma membrane permeability, root vigor and leaf expansion rate were highest, followed by plant height and net photosynthetic rate, and of shoot dry weight and root dry weight were lowest. The salt tolerance of cotton differed a- mong growth stages and cultivars. Among the 11 cultivars, CCRI-44 and CCRI-75 were steadily salt-tolerant at both germination and seedling stages; CCRI-17, Sumi- an 22, Sumian 15 and Dexiamianl had a stable moderate salt tolerance; while Sumian 12 and Simian 3 were steadily salt-sensitive. [Conclusion] The evaluated result was objective and exact, which indicated that this method could be used in comprehensive evaluation of salt tolerance of cotton.展开更多

So the genetic algorithm is introduced to improve the computational efficiency of the 2 D entropy method. The proposed method uses both the gray value of a pixel and the local average gray value of an image. At the same time, the simple genetic algorithm is improved by using better reproduction and crossover operators. Thus the proposed method makes up the 2 D entropy method’s drawback of being time consuming, and yields satisfactory segmentation results.

This improved method for determination of weight of the evaluating indicators was applied in water quality assessment of the Three Gorges reservoir area. The results showed that this method was favorable for fuzzy synthetic evaluation when there were more than one evaluating objects. One calculation was enough for calculating every monitoring point. Compared with the original evaluation method, the method predigested the fuzzy synthetic evaluation process greatly and the evaluation results are more reasonable.展开更多

This paper proposes a materialmisstatement risk assessment model based on the combined use of entropy weight-TOPSISand grey relational analysis methods and evaluates the material misstatement risk in China'sMedical CRO Industry by quantitative means. Taking the medical CRO industry as anexample, this paper selects some case companies in the industry for horizontal comparison,and at the same time conducts a multi-year data comparison on the enterprise with the highestaudit risk among them. The results show that Bio-Sincerity Pharmaceutical is an enterprisewith relatively high audit risk in the Medical CRO Industry in recent years, and thecalculation results of the model are basically consistent with the actual analysis. Toeffectively prevent financial risks and audit risks, financial personnel should participate inbusiness management, analysis and budgeting, and auditors should also focus on auditsegments such as dynamic cash flow, debt structure, and business contracts and debtmanagement in combination with the characteristics of the Medical CRO Industry, so as toeffectively reduce the risk of audit misstatements.展开更多

The results show that the samples preform a characteristic of clusters spin-glass state at low temperature. The samples show a characteristic of ferromagnetism(FM) characteristic in the temperature range of 15-125 K and 15-150 K respectively; the samples show preformed clusters in the temperature range of 125-343 K and 150-325 K, respectively, the samples show paramagnetism(PM)characteristic above 343 and 325 K, respectively. The second-order transitions are found at 118 and 135 K for undoped and doped sample, respectively. When the applied magnetic field is 7 T, the maximum magnetic entropy change |△S_M| value of the samples is near the Curie temperature(Tc), and the value of|△S_M| reaches 2.76 and 3.03 J/(K kg), respectively. In addition, the relative cooling power(RCP) is found to be 425.28 and 443.53 J/kg. The numerical fitting data fit well with experimental data. These results indicate that both the samples have the potential to realize magnetic refrigeration in the high temperature region(T > 77 K).展开更多

A two-phase Eulerian-Lagrangian method is utilized for atomization modeling of the inside and outside atomizer. In order to modify energy and momentum sources in the MEM, parametric studies are performed, and experimental tests are carried out to verify the results by applying the shadowgraph method. An advanced test stand is developed to prepare a wide range of changes in atomization characteristics and mixing ratios. A high degree of consistency is found between numerical results from the developed MEM and experimental tests with different gas-phase pressures and liquid flow rates. The droplet diameter and velocity distribution are reviewed based on various Weber numbers, sources of energy, and momentum. Turbulence modeling assists to estimate the breakup length and time scale precisely in the developed MEM, and distribution ranges with mean values are achieved. With reference to a strong correlation between upstream turbulence flow and the developed MEM verified by experimental tests, an ideal droplet size and velocity distribution prediction is observed.展开更多

Compared with the Chang'e-1 orbiter, the Chang'e-2 orbiter obtained more accurate and comprehensive microwave brightness temperature data, which are helpful for further research. Since there is a close relationship between mi- crowave brightness temperature data and some related properties of the lunar regolith, such as the thickness, temperature and dielectric constant, precise and high resolution brightness temperature data are necessary for such research. However, through the detection mechanism of the microwave sounder, the brightness temperature data ac- quired from the microwave sounder are weighted by the antenna radiation pattern, so the data are the convolution of the antenna radiation pattern with the lunar brightness temperature. In order to obtain the real lunar brightness temperature, a deconvolution method is needed. The aim of this paper is to solve the problem associated with per- forming deconvolution of the lunar brightness temperature. In this study, we introduce the maximum entropy method (MEM) to process the brightness temperature data and achieve excellent results. The paper mainly includes the following aspects: first, we introduce the principle of the MEM; second, through a series of simulations, the MEM has been verified as an efficient deconvolution method; and third, the MEM is used to process the Chang'e-2 microwave data and the results are significant.展开更多

文摘Considering the difficulty of fuzzy synthetic evaluation method in calculation of the multiple factors and ignorance of the relationship among evaluating objects, a new weight evaluation process using entropy method was introduced. This improved method for determination of weight of the evaluating indicators was applied in water quality assessment of the Three Gorges reservoir area. The results showed that this method was favorable for fuzzy synthetic evaluation when there were more than one evaluating objects. One calculation was enough for calculating every monitoring point. Compared with the original evaluation method, the method predigested the fuzzy synthetic evaluation process greatly and the evaluation results are more reasonable.
文摘Under the modern risk-oriented audit, a reasonable evaluation of materialmisstatement risk is crucial for certified public accountants to determine the level ofmateriality and implement further substantive procedures. This paper proposes a materialmisstatement risk assessment model based on the combined use of entropy weight-TOPSISand grey relational analysis methods and evaluates the material misstatement risk in China'sMedical CRO Industry by quantitative means. Taking the medical CRO industry as anexample, this paper selects some case companies in the industry for horizontal comparison,and at the same time conducts a multi-year data comparison on the enterprise with the highestaudit risk among them. The results show that Bio-Sincerity Pharmaceutical is an enterprisewith relatively high audit risk in the Medical CRO Industry in recent years, and thecalculation results of the model are basically consistent with the actual analysis. Toeffectively prevent financial risks and audit risks, financial personnel should participate inbusiness management, analysis and budgeting, and auditors should also focus on auditsegments such as dynamic cash flow, debt structure, and business contracts and debtmanagement in combination with the characteristics of the Medical CRO Industry, so as toeffectively reduce the risk of audit misstatements.

文摘Polycrystalline samples La_(0.9-x)EuxSr_(0.1)MnO_3(x = 0.000, 0.075) were prepared by the standard solid-state reaction method. The results show that the samples preform a characteristic of clusters spin-glass state at low temperature. The samples show a characteristic of ferromagnetism(FM) characteristic in the temperature range of 15-125 K and 15-150 K respectively; the samples show preformed clusters in the temperature range of 125-343 K and 150-325 K, respectively, the samples show paramagnetism(PM)characteristic above 343 and 325 K, respectively. The second-order transitions are found at 118 and 135 K for undoped and doped sample, respectively. When the applied magnetic field is 7 T, the maximum magnetic entropy change |△S_M| value of the samples is near the Curie temperature(Tc), and the value of|△S_M| reaches 2.76 and 3.03 J/(K kg), respectively. In addition, the relative cooling power(RCP) is found to be 425.28 and 443.53 J/kg. The numerical fitting data fit well with experimental data. These results indicate that both the samples have the potential to realize magnetic refrigeration in the high temperature region(T > 77 K).

文摘In complex networks,identifying influential spreader is of great significance for improving the reliability of networks and ensuring the safe and effective operation of networks.Nowadays,it is widely used in power networks,aviation networks,computer networks,and social networks,and so on.Traditional centrality methods mainly include degree centrality,closeness centrality,betweenness centrality,eigenvector centrality,k-shell,etc.However,single centrality method is onesided and inaccurate,and sometimes many nodes have the same centrality value,namely the same ranking result,which makes it difficult to distinguish between nodes.According to several classical methods of identifying influential nodes,in this paper we propose a novel method that is more full-scaled and universally applicable.Taken into account in this method are several aspects of node’s properties,including local topological characteristics,central location of nodes,propagation characteristics,and properties of neighbor nodes.In view of the idea of the multi-attribute decision-making,we regard the basic centrality method as node’s attribute and use the entropy weight method to weigh different attributes,and obtain node’s combined centrality.Then,the combined centrality is applied to the gravity law to comprehensively identify influential nodes in networks.Finally,the classical susceptible-infected-recovered(SIR)model is used to simulate the epidemic spreading in six real-society networks.Our proposed method not only considers the four topological properties of nodes,but also emphasizes the influence of neighbor nodes from the aspect of gravity.It is proved that the new method can effectively overcome the disadvantages of single centrality method and increase the accuracy of identifying influential nodes,which is of great significance for monitoring and controlling the complex networks.
文摘This paper presents an analytical, numerical, and experimental study on atomization characteristics and droplet distribution of a twin-fluid two-phase internal mixing atomizer to develop a Maximum Entropy Method(MEM). A two-phase Eulerian-Lagrangian method is utilized for atomization modeling of the inside and outside atomizer. In order to modify energy and momentum sources in the MEM, parametric studies are performed, and experimental tests are carried out to verify the results by applying the shadowgraph method. An advanced test stand is developed to prepare a wide range of changes in atomization characteristics and mixing ratios. A high degree of consistency is found between numerical results from the developed MEM and experimental tests with different gas-phase pressures and liquid flow rates. The droplet diameter and velocity distribution are reviewed based on various Weber numbers, sources of energy, and momentum. Turbulence modeling assists to estimate the breakup length and time scale precisely in the developed MEM, and distribution ranges with mean values are achieved. With reference to a strong correlation between upstream turbulence flow and the developed MEM verified by experimental tests, an ideal droplet size and velocity distribution prediction is observed.

文摘A passive and multi-channel microwave sounder onboard the Chang'e-2 orbiter has successfully acquired microwave observations of the lunar surface and subsurface structure. Compared with the Chang'e-1 orbiter, the Chang'e-2 orbiter obtained more accurate and comprehensive microwave brightness temperature data, which are helpful for further research. Since there is a close relationship between mi- crowave brightness temperature data and some related properties of the lunar regolith, such as the thickness, temperature and dielectric constant, precise and high resolution brightness temperature data are necessary for such research. However, through the detection mechanism of the microwave sounder, the brightness temperature data ac- quired from the microwave sounder are weighted by the antenna radiation pattern, so the data are the convolution of the antenna radiation pattern with the lunar brightness temperature. In order to obtain the real lunar brightness temperature, a deconvolution method is needed. The aim of this paper is to solve the problem associated with per- forming deconvolution of the lunar brightness temperature. In this study, we introduce the maximum entropy method (MEM) to process the brightness temperature data and achieve excellent results. The paper mainly includes the following aspects: first, we introduce the principle of the MEM; second, through a series of simulations, the MEM has been verified as an efficient deconvolution method; and third, the MEM is used to process the Chang'e-2 microwave data and the results are significant.
