These distances could range from kilometers to tens of kilometers, and even hundreds and thousands of kilometers. Therefore, it is crucial to develop effective long-range path planning for lunar rovers to meet the demands of lunar patrol exploration. This paper presents a hierarchical map model path planning method that utilizes the existing high-resolution images, digital elevation models and mineral abundance maps. The objective is to address the issue of the construction of lunar rover travel costs in the absence of large-scale, high-resolution digital elevation models. This method models the reference and semantic layers using the middle- and low-resolution remote sensing data. The multi-scale obstacles on the lunar surface are extracted by combining the deep learning algorithm on the high-resolution image, and the obstacle avoidance layer is modeled. A two-stage exploratory path planning decision is employed for long-distance driving path planning on a global–local scale. The proposed method analyzes the long-distance accessibility of various areas of scientific significance, such as Rima Bode. A high-precision digital elevation model is created using stereo images to validate the method. Based on the findings, it can be observed that the entire route spans a distance of 930.32 km. The route demonstrates an impressive ability to avoid meter-level impact craters and linear structures while maintaining an average slope of less than 8°. This paper explores scientific research by traversing at least seven basalt units, uncovering the secrets of lunar volcanic activities, and establishing ‘golden spike’ reference points for lunar stratigraphy. The final result of path planning can serve as a valuable reference for the design, mission demonstration, and subsequent project implementation of the new manned lunar rover.展开更多

文摘Existing glass segmentation networks have high computational complexity and large memory occupation,leading to high hardware requirements and time overheads for model inference,which is not conducive to efficiency-seeking real-time tasks such as autonomous driving.The inefficiency of the models is mainly due to employing homogeneous modules to process features of different layers.These modules require computationally intensive convolutions and weight calculation branches with numerous parameters to accommodate the differences in information across layers.We propose an efficient glass segmentation network(EGSNet)based on multi-level heterogeneous architecture and boundary awareness to balance the model performance and efficiency.EGSNet divides the feature layers from different stages into low-level understanding,semantic-level understanding,and global understanding with boundary guidance.Based on the information differences among the different layers,we further propose the multi-angle collaborative enhancement(MCE)module,which extracts the detailed information from shallow features,and the large-scale contextual feature extraction(LCFE)module to understand semantic logic through deep features.The models are trained and evaluated on the glass segmentation datasets HSO(Home-Scene-Oriented)and Trans10k-stuff,respectively,and EGSNet achieves the best efficiency and performance compared to advanced methods.In the HSO test set results,the IoU,Fβ,MAE(Mean Absolute Error),and BER(Balance Error Rate)of EGSNet are 0.804,0.847,0.084,and 0.085,and the GFLOPs(Giga Floating Point Operations Per Second)are only 27.15.Experimental results show that EGSNet significantly improves the efficiency of the glass segmentation task with better performance.
文摘The number of blogs and other forms of opinionated online content has increased dramatically in recent years.Many fields,including academia and national security,place an emphasis on automated political article orientation detection.Political articles(especially in the Arab world)are different from other articles due to their subjectivity,in which the author’s beliefs and political affiliation might have a significant influence on a political article.With categories representing the main political ideologies,this problem may be thought of as a subset of the text categorization(classification).In general,the performance of machine learning models for text classification is sensitive to hyperparameter settings.Furthermore,the feature vector used to represent a document must capture,to some extent,the complex semantics of natural language.To this end,this paper presents an intelligent system to detect political Arabic article orientation that adapts the categorical boosting(CatBoost)method combined with a multi-level feature concept.Extracting features at multiple levels can enhance the model’s ability to discriminate between different classes or patterns.Each level may capture different aspects of the input data,contributing to a more comprehensive representation.CatBoost,a robust and efficient gradient-boosting algorithm,is utilized to effectively learn and predict the complex relationships between these features and the political orientation labels associated with the articles.A dataset of political Arabic texts collected from diverse sources,including postings and articles,is used to assess the suggested technique.Conservative,reform,and revolutionary are the three subcategories of these opinions.The results of this study demonstrate that compared to other frequently used machine learning models for text classification,the CatBoost method using multi-level features performs better with an accuracy of 98.14%.

文摘Gelugpa is the most influential extant religious sect of Tibetan Buddhism,which is the spiritual prop for Tibetans,with thousands of monasteries and followers in Tibetan areas of China.Studies on the spatial diffusion processes of Gelugpa can not only reveal its historical geographical development but also lay the foundation for anticipating its future development trend.However,existing studies on Gelugpa lack geographical perspective,making it difficult to explore the spatial characteristics.Furthermore,the prevailing macro-perspective overlooks spatiotemporal heterogeneity in diffusion processes.Therefore,taking monastery as the carrier,this study establishes a multi-level diffusion model to reconstruct the diffusion networks of Gelugpa monasteries,as well as a framework to explore the detailed features in the spatial diffusion processes of Gelugpa in Tibetan areas of China based on a geodatabase of Gelugpa monastery.The results show that the multi-level diffusion model has a considerable applicability in the reconstruction of the diffusion networks of Gelugpa monasteries.Gelugpa monasteries in the Three Tibetan Inhabited Areas present disparate spatial diffusion processes with diverse diffusion bases,speeds,stages,as well as diffusion regions and centers.A powerful single-center diffusion-centered Gandan Monastery was rapidly formed in U-Tsang.Kham experienced a slower and more varied spatial diffusion process with multiple diffusion systems far apart from each other.The spatial diffusion process of Amdo was the most complex,with the highest diffusion intensity.Amdo possessed the most influential diffusion centers,with different diffusion shapes and diffusion ranges crossing and overlapping with each other.Multiple natural and human factors may contribute to the formation of Gelugpa monasteries.This study contributes to the understanding of the geography of Gelugpa and provides reference to studies on religion diffusion.
