However current approaches to this direction usually require a long learning curve, and their development lacks standardization. This results in software components that are difficult to reuse, and hard to maintain or extend. In order to overcome such issues, we propose a novel object-oriented framework for efficient development of software systems for video analysis. It consists of a set of four abstract components, suitable for the implementation of independent plug-in modules for video acquisition, preprocessing, analysis and output handling. The extensibility of each module can be facilitated by sub-modules specifying additional functionalities. This architecture enables quick responses to changes and re-configurability;thus conforming to the requirements of agile software development practices. Considering the need for platform independency, the proposed Java Video Analysis (JVA) framework is implemented in Java. It is publicly available through the web as open-access software, supported by a growing collection of implemented modules. Its efficiency is empirically validated for the development of a representative video analysis system.展开更多

Based on the idea of ES template (EST), an object-oriented rule-type EST is emphatically studied on such aspects as the object-oriented knowledge representation, the heuristic inference engine with an improved depth-first search (DFS) and the graphical user interface. A diagnositic ES instance for debris on magnetic chip detectors (MCDs) is then created with the EST. The spot running shows that the rule-type EST enhances the abilities of knowledge representation and heuristic inference, and breaks a new way for the rapid construction and implementation of ES.展开更多

For example, C# does not support metaclasses, the primitive types of Java and C# are not objects, etc. So, this paper designs a programming language, Shrek, which integrates many language features and constructions in a compact and consistent model. The Shrek language is a class-based purely object-oriented language. It has a dynamical strong type system, and adopts a single-inheritance mechanism with Mixin as its complement. It has a consistent class instantiation and inheritance structure, and the ability of intercessive structural computational reflection, which enables it to support safe metaclass programming. It also supports multi-thread programming and automatic garbage collection, and enforces its expressive power by adopting a native method mechanism. The prototype system of the Shrek language is implemented and anticipated design goals are achieved.展开更多

Starting with the definition of object-oriented remotely sensed information classification pattern and a literature review of related research progress, this paper sums up 4 developing phases of object-oriented classification pattern during the past 20 years.

文摘Constructing catalysts featuring an ordered structure,stable performance,and uniformly dispersed catalytic sites is vital for the epoxidation of small-molecular olefins.Here,we design catalysts by tracing the oxidationprocess origin and synthesize a series of highly dispersed metal porphyrin-based covalent organic frameworks(COFs)materials.The aim is to efficiently oxidize the C-H bonds of cumene by air to in-situ generate organic peroxides at a safe concentration,and integrate the multi-step oxidation method of cumene in industry into a one-step method for olefins’epoxidation.The carbonyl-ruthenium COF(Ru-COF-1)exhibits excellent performance,with 98% epoxide selectivity,1221.77 h^(-1) productivity,and over 95% selectivity after 9 cycles for 1-hexene.Analysis of structure-properties-catalytic relationships of Ru-COF-1 shows that,compared with Ru-porphyrins and metal-free COFs,the enhanced reaction performance mainly results from Ru metal introduction,which promotes benzylic proton transfer in cumene.Besides,Ru-COF-1’s porous,ordered structure aids oxygen enrichment,forming active peroxy radicals with the cumene carboncentered radicals formed on the catalyst surface.Ru-H sites then accelerate active oxygen transfer from peroxy radicals,enabling olefin tandem epoxidation.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations verify the reaction mechanism,and this work offers a reference for the design of catalysts for the green,safe,and efficient oxidation of olefins.

文摘A series of dual-extended-polyhedral metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)was constructed based on the 14-coordinated Cu_(24)-MOP-1(MOP=metal-organic polyhedron)supermolecular building blocks(SBBs)with enhanced stability and tunable functionality for high water uptake efficiency and capacity.Exceptional water stability was demonstrated by the retention of chemical integrity and crystallinity of USC-CP-5(where USC-CP stands for University of South China coordination polymer)after exposure to boiling water for 24 h.Functionalization with-Cl,-OCH_(3),-OH,and-NH_(2)groups of USC-CP-5 resulted in water uptake capacities of 450,460,490,and 590 cm^(3)·g^(-1) at relative pressure(P/P_(0))=0.9,respectively.This performance is ascribed to both the increased hydrophilicity of the ligands and stronger hydrogen bonding.Intriguingly,high-temperature activated USC-5-NH_(2)exhibits a significant water uptake of 38.5 wt.%at P/P_(0)=0.3 and releases 0.44 L·kg^(-1) water between 25 and 65℃.This water release process is reversible for at least 100 cycles with minimal weight loss of only 1.6 wt.%.Consequently,USC-5-NH_(2)holds considerable potential for harvesting and releasing atmospheric water in arid desert regions,powered by solar energy.

文摘To meet the growing needs of flexible and wearable electronics,stretchable energy storage devices—especially supercapacitors(SCs)—have become a key focus in advanced energy storage research.However,achieving both mechanical stretchability and high capacitance in SC still faces great challenges,and the crucial factors lie in creating superior electrode materials that exhibit high electrochemical performance as well as excellent mechanical stretchability.Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)possess considerable potential as electrode materials for SCs by virtue of stable organic frameworks,open channels and designable functional groups.Nevertheless,their applications in flexible SCs are greatly hindered by their rigid characteristics.Here a novel COFs@conductive polymer hydrogels(CPHs)@poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS)complexes,which integrate the pseudocapacitance of PDITAPA COF,mechanical stretchability of hydrogels and high conductivity of PEDOT:PSS,has been developed as stretchable electrode of SCs.Physically cross-linked PEDOT nanofibers,with their interlinked and entangled architecture,collectively boost mechanical,electrical,and electrochemical performance.The COFs@CPHs@PEDOT:PSS simultaneously demonstrates outstanding mechanical stretchability,high electrical behaviors,and superior swelling characteristics.The resulting SC exhibits advantages of simple structures,facile assembly processes,high specific capacitance,excellent cycling stability,and arbitrary deformation,which holds great application prospects for wearable electronic products.Owing to its uncomplicated structure,ease of production,high energy storage capacity,robust cycling performance,and adaptability to deformation,this fabricated SC is well-suited for next-generation wearable technologies.

文摘Photocatalytic carbon dioxide(CO_(2))reduction offers an alternative strategy for converting CO_(2)into high-value added gaseous fuels,thereby paving the way for the development of clean and renewable energy.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),characterized by their highly porous structure,exceptional CO_(2)adsorption capacity,and tunable architecture,have emerged as promising candidates for photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction.This review systematically examines the recent advancement in MOFs-based photocatalysts for CO_(2)reduction to CO.It begins with the overview of the fundamental mechanisms and processes of MOFs towards photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction.Subsequently,common strategies for the modulation of MOFs-based photocatalysts are summarized,including metallic site modification,functionalized ligand incorporation,morphological control,defect engineering,and heterostructure construction.Notably,the review analyzes the critical factors contributing to the high selectivity of CO_(2)photoreduction to CO from both thermodynamic and kinetic perspectives.The conclusion addresses current challenges and future perspectives in designing highly efficient photocatalysts with abundant active sites,providing valuable insights for their continued development.

文摘The intrinsic pressure framework,which treats self-propelling force as an external force,provides a convenient and consistent description of mechanical equilibrium in active matter.However,direct experimental evidence is still lacking.To validate this framework,here we employ a programmable robotic platform,where a single light-controlled wheeled robot travels in an activity landscape.Our experiments quantitatively demonstrate that the intrinsic pressure difference across the activity interface is balanced by the emerged polarization force.This result unambiguously confirms the theoretical predictions,thus validating the intrinsic pressure framework and laying the experimental foundation for the intrinsic pressure-based mechanical description of dry active matter.

文摘The evolution of cities into digitally managed environments requires computational systems that can operate in real time while supporting predictive and adaptive infrastructure management.Earlier approaches have often advanced one dimension—such as Internet of Things(IoT)-based data acquisition,Artificial Intelligence(AI)-driven analytics,or digital twin visualization—without fully integrating these strands into a single operational loop.As a result,many existing solutions encounter bottlenecks in responsiveness,interoperability,and scalability,while also leaving concerns about data privacy unresolved.This research introduces a hybrid AI–IoT–Digital Twin framework that combines continuous sensing,distributed intelligence,and simulation-based decision support.The design incorporates multi-source sensor data,lightweight edge inference through Convolutional Neural Networks(CNN)and Long ShortTerm Memory(LSTM)models,and federated learning enhanced with secure aggregation and differential privacy to maintain confidentiality.A digital twin layer extends these capabilities by simulating city assets such as traffic flows and water networks,generating what-if scenarios,and issuing actionable control signals.Complementary modules,including model compression and synchronization protocols,are embedded to ensure reliability in bandwidth-constrained and heterogeneous urban environments.The framework is validated in two urban domains:traffic management,where it adapts signal cycles based on real-time congestion patterns,and pipeline monitoring,where it anticipates leaks through pressure and vibration data.Experimental results show a 28%reduction in response time,a 35%decrease in maintenance costs,and a marked reduction in false positives relative to conventional baselines.The architecture also demonstrates stability across 50+edge devices under federated training and resilience to uneven node participation.The proposed system provides a scalable and privacy-aware foundation for predictive urban infrastructure management.By closing the loop between sensing,learning,and control,it reduces operator dependence,enhances resource efficiency,and supports transparent governance models for emerging smart cities.
文摘The inspection of engine lubricating oil can give an indication of the internal condition of an engine. By means of the Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), an expert system is developed in this paper to computerize the inspection. The traditional components of an expert system, such us knowledge base, inference engine and user interface are reconstructed and integrated, based on the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) library. To testify the expert system, an inspection example is given at the end of this paper.
文摘Expert systems (ESs) are being increasingly applied to the fault diagnosis of engines. Based on the idea of ES template (EST), an object-oriented rule-type EST is emphatically studied on such aspects as the object-oriented knowledge representation, the heuristic inference engine with an improved depth-first search (DFS) and the graphical user interface. A diagnositic ES instance for debris on magnetic chip detectors (MCDs) is then created with the EST. The spot running shows that the rule-type EST enhances the abilities of knowledge representation and heuristic inference, and breaks a new way for the rapid construction and implementation of ES.

文摘This paper uses three size metrics,which are collectable during the design phase,to analyze the potentially confounding effect of class size on the associations between object-oriented(OO)metrics and maintainability.To draw as many general conclusions as possible,the confounding effect of class size is analyzed on 127 C++ systems and 113 Java systems.For each OO metric,the indirect effect that represents the distortion of the association caused by class size and its variance for individual systems is first computed.Then,a statistical meta-analysis technique is used to compute the average indirect effect over all the systems and to determine if it is significantly different from zero.The experimental results show that the confounding effects of class size on the associations between OO metrics and maintainability generally exist,regardless of whatever size metric is used.Therefore,empirical studies validating OO metrics on maintainability should consider class size as a confounding variable.
文摘A visual object-oriented software for lane following on intelligent highway system (IHS) is proposed. According to object-oriented theory, 3 typical user services of self-check, transfer of human driving and automatic running and abnormal information input from the sensors are chosen out. In addition, the functions of real-time display, information exchanging interface, determination and operation interweaving in the 3 user services are separated into 5 object-oriented classes. Moreover, the 5 classes are organized in the visual development environment. At last, experimental result proves the validity and reliability of the control application.

文摘From a perspective of theoretical study, there are some faults in the models of the existing object-oriented programming languages. For example, C# does not support metaclasses, the primitive types of Java and C# are not objects, etc. So, this paper designs a programming language, Shrek, which integrates many language features and constructions in a compact and consistent model. The Shrek language is a class-based purely object-oriented language. It has a dynamical strong type system, and adopts a single-inheritance mechanism with Mixin as its complement. It has a consistent class instantiation and inheritance structure, and the ability of intercessive structural computational reflection, which enables it to support safe metaclass programming. It also supports multi-thread programming and automatic garbage collection, and enforces its expressive power by adopting a native method mechanism. The prototype system of the Shrek language is implemented and anticipated design goals are achieved.

文摘With the wide use of high-resolution remotely sensed imagery, the object-oriented remotely sensed informa- tion classification pattern has been intensively studied. Starting with the definition of object-oriented remotely sensed information classification pattern and a literature review of related research progress, this paper sums up 4 developing phases of object-oriented classification pattern during the past 20 years. Then, we discuss the three aspects of method- ology in detail, namely remotely sensed imagery segmentation, feature analysis and feature selection, and classification rule generation, through comparing them with remotely sensed information classification method based on per-pixel. At last, this paper presents several points that need to be paid attention to in the future studies on object-oriented RS in- formation classification pattern: 1) developing robust and highly effective image segmentation algorithm for multi-spectral RS imagery; 2) improving the feature-set including edge, spatial-adjacent and temporal characteristics; 3) discussing the classification rule generation classifier based on the decision tree; 4) presenting evaluation methods for classification result by object-oriented classification pattern.
