The goal of this paper is to evaluate the use of artificial neural networks in the classification of proton transfer events, based on the feed-forward back propagation neural network, used as a classifier to distinguish between the two transfer cases. In this paper, we use a new developed data mining and pattern recognition tool for automating, controlling, and drawing charts of the output data of an Empirical Valence Bond existing code. The study analyzes the need for pattern recognition in aqueous proton transfer processes and how the learning approach in error back propagation （multilayer perceptron algorithms） could be satisfactorily employed in the present case. We present a tool for pattern recognition and validate the code including a real physical case study. The results of applying the artificial neural networks methodology to crowd patterns based upon selected physical properties （e.g., temperature, density） show the abilities of the network to learn proton transfer patterns corresponding to properties of the aqueous environments, which is in turn proved to be fully compatible with previous proton transfer studies.展开更多

Recent studies on of the relay effect of the WPT allow more distant and flexible energy transmission. These new developments hold a promise to construct a fully wireless Body Sensor Network (wBSN) using the new mid-range WPT theory. In this paper, a general optimization strategy for a WPT network is presented by analysis and simulation using the coupled mode theory. Based on the results of theoretical and computational study, two types of thin-film resonators are designed and prototyped for the construction of wBSNs. These resonators and associated electronic components can be integrated into a WPT platform to permit wireless power delivery to multiple wearable sensors and medical implants on the surface and within the human body. Our experiments have demonstrated the feasibility of the WPT approach.展开更多

Methods A three-layer BP network was built to simulate topology and process of the eco-economy system of Xiangfan. Historical data of ecological environmental factors and socio-economic factors as inputs, and corresponding historical data of ecosystem service value (ESV) and GDP as target outputs, were presented to train and test the network. When predicted input data after 2001 were presented to trained network as generalization sets, ESVs and GDPs of 2002, 2003, 2004... till 2050 were simulated as output in succession. Results Up to 2050, the area would have suffered an accumulative total ESV loss of RMB 104.9 billion, which accounted for 37.36% of the present ESV. The coinstantaneous GDP would change asynchronously with ESV, it would go through an up-to-down process and finally lose RMB89.3 billion, which accounted for 18.71% of 2001. Conclusions The simulation indicates that ESV loss means damage to the capability of socio-economic sustainable development, and suggests that artificial neural networks (ANNs) provide a feasible and effective method and have an important potential in ESV modeling.展开更多

It is based on the interaction of a two-mode cavity field with a three-level V-type atom. In the scheme, the atom-cavity field interaction is resonant, thus the time required to complete the quantum state transfer process is greatly shortened, which is very important in view of decoherence. Moreover, the present scheme does not require one mode of the cavities to be initially prepared in one-photon state, thus it is more experimentally feasible than the previous ones.展开更多

In this paper, we use a new developed data mining and pattern recognition tool for automating, controlling, and drawing charts of the output data of an Empirical Valence Bond existing code. The study analyzes the need for pattern recognition in aqueous proton transfer processes and how the learning approach in error back propagation （multilayer perceptron algorithms） could be satisfactorily employed in the present case. We present a tool for pattern recognition and validate the code including a real physical case study. The results of applying the artificial neural networks methodology to crowd patterns based upon selected physical properties （e.g., temperature, density） show the abilities of the network to learn proton transfer patterns corresponding to properties of the aqueous environments, which is in turn proved to be fully compatible with previous proton transfer studies.

文摘This article proposes a deep neural network(DNN)-based direct-path relative transfer function(DP-RTF)enhancement method for robust direction of arrival(DOA)estimation in noisy and reverberant environments.The DP-RTF refers to the ratio between the directpath acoustic transfer functions of the two microphone channels.First,the complex-value DP-RTF is decomposed into the inter-channel intensity difference,and sinusoidal functions of the inter-channel phase difference in the time-frequency domain.Then,the decomposed DP-RTF features from a series of temporal context frames are utilized to train a DNN model,which maps the DP-RTF features contaminated by noise and reverberation to the clean ones,and meanwhile provides a time-frequency(TF)weight to indicate the reliability of the mapping.The DP-RTF enhancement network can help to enhance the DP-RTF against noise and reverberation.Finally,the DOA of a sound source can be estimated by integrating the weighted matching between the enhanced DP-RTF features and the DP-RTF templates.Experimental results on simulated data show the superiority of the proposed DP-RTF enhancement network for estimating the DOA of the sound source in the environments with various levels of noise and reverberation.

文摘The so-called pore network model has great advantages in describing the process of heat and mass transfer in porous media.In order to construct a random two-dimensional(2D)irregular pore network model for an unconsolidated material,image processing technology was used to extract the required topological and geometric information from a 2D sample of soybean particles,and a dedicated algorithm was elaborated to merge some adjacent small pores.Based on the extracted information,a 2D pore network model including particle information was reconstructed and verified to reflect the pore structure of discrete particles.This method was used to reconstruct a random 2D irregular pore network model of wheat.Accordingly,a multi-scale heat and mass transfer model was implemented to simulate the drying of wheat.The simulation results were consistent with the experimental results,which indicates that the reconstructed irregular pore network model can effectively simulate the real pore structure inside unconsolidated porous media.The present approach may be regarded as the foundation for establishing in the future a three-dimensional pore network model and studying the heat and mass transfer process in a grain pile.

文摘Domain adaptation and adversarial networks are two main approaches for transfer learning.Domain adaptation methods match the mean values of source and target domains,which requires a very large batch size during training.However,adversarial networks are usually unstable when training.In this paper,we propose a joint method of feature matching and adversarial networks to reduce domain discrepancy and mine domaininvariant features from the local and global aspects.At the same time,our method improves the stability of training.Moreover,the method is embedded into a unified convolutional neural network that can be easily optimized by gradient descent.Experimental results show that our joint method can yield the state-of-the-art results on three common public datasets.
文摘It has been reported that, through the evanescent near fields, the strongly coupled magnetic resonance is able to achieve an efficient mid-range Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) beyond the characteristic size of the resonator. Recent studies on of the relay effect of the WPT allow more distant and flexible energy transmission. These new developments hold a promise to construct a fully wireless Body Sensor Network (wBSN) using the new mid-range WPT theory. In this paper, a general optimization strategy for a WPT network is presented by analysis and simulation using the coupled mode theory. Based on the results of theoretical and computational study, two types of thin-film resonators are designed and prototyped for the construction of wBSNs. These resonators and associated electronic components can be integrated into a WPT platform to permit wireless power delivery to multiple wearable sensors and medical implants on the surface and within the human body. Our experiments have demonstrated the feasibility of the WPT approach.
文摘Objective To recognize and assess the impact of the South-to-north Water Transfer Project (SNWTP) on the ecological environment of Xiangfan, Hubei Province, situated in the water-out area, and develop sound scientific countermeasures. Methods A three-layer BP network was built to simulate topology and process of the eco-economy system of Xiangfan. Historical data of ecological environmental factors and socio-economic factors as inputs, and corresponding historical data of ecosystem service value (ESV) and GDP as target outputs, were presented to train and test the network. When predicted input data after 2001 were presented to trained network as generalization sets, ESVs and GDPs of 2002, 2003, 2004... till 2050 were simulated as output in succession. Results Up to 2050, the area would have suffered an accumulative total ESV loss of RMB 104.9 billion, which accounted for 37.36% of the present ESV. The coinstantaneous GDP would change asynchronously with ESV, it would go through an up-to-down process and finally lose RMB89.3 billion, which accounted for 18.71% of 2001. Conclusions The simulation indicates that ESV loss means damage to the capability of socio-economic sustainable development, and suggests that artificial neural networks (ANNs) provide a feasible and effective method and have an important potential in ESV modeling.

文摘As the sixth generation network(6G)emerges,the Internet of remote things(IoRT)has become a critical issue.However,conventional terrestrial networks cannot meet the delay-sensitive data collection needs of IoRT networks,and the Space-Air-Ground integrated network(SAGIN)holds promise.We propose a novel setup that integrates non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)and wireless power transfer(WPT)to collect latency-sensitive data from IoRT networks.To extend the lifetime of devices,we aim to minimize the maximum energy consumption among all IoRT devices.Due to the coupling between variables,the resulting problem is non-convex.We first decouple the variables and split the original problem into four subproblems.Then,we propose an iterative algorithm to solve the corresponding subproblems based on successive convex approximation(SCA)techniques and slack variables.Finally,simulation results show that the NOMA strategy has a tremendous advantage over the OMA scheme in terms of network lifetime and energy efficiency,providing valuable insights.
文摘Due to the lack of large-scale emotion databases,it is hard to obtain comparable improvement in multimodal emotion recognition of the deep neural network by deep learning,which has made great progress in other areas.We use transfer learning to improve its performance with pretrained models on largescale data.Audio is encoded using deep speech recognition networks with 500 hours’speech and video is encoded using convolutional neural networks with over 110,000 images.The extracted audio and visual features are fed into Long Short-Term Memory to train models respectively.Logistic regression and ensemble method are performed in decision level fusion.The experiment results indicate that 1)audio features extracted from deep speech recognition networks achieve better performance than handcrafted audio features;2)the visual emotion recognition obtains better performance than audio emotion recognition;3)the ensemble method gets better performance than logistic regression and prior knowledge from micro-F1 value further improves the performance and robustness,achieving accuracy of 67.00%for“happy”,54.90%for“an?gry”,and 51.69%for“sad”.

文摘The prediction of Exhaust Gas Temperature Margin(EGTM)after washing aeroengines can provide a theoretical basis for airlines not only to evaluate the energy-saving effect and emission reduction,but also to formulate reasonable maintenance plans.However,the EGTM encounters step changes after washing aeroengines,while,in the traditional models,a persistence tendency exists between the prediction results and the previous data,resulting in low accuracy in prediction.In order to solve the problem,this paper develops a step parameters prediction model based on Transfer Process Neural Networks(TPNN).Especially,“step parameters”represent the parameters that can reflect EGTM step changes.They are analyzed in this study,and thus the model concentrates on the prediction of step changes rather than the extension of data trends.Transfer learning is used to handle the problem that few cleaning records result in few step changes for model learning.In comparison with Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)and Kernel Extreme Learning Machine(KELM)models,the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified on CFM56-5B engine data.

文摘The prediction of slope stability is considered as one of the critical concerns in geotechnical engineering.Conventional stochastic analysis with spatially variable slopes is time-consuming and highly computation-demanding.To assess the slope stability problems with a more desirable computational effort,many machine learning(ML)algorithms have been proposed.However,most ML-based techniques require that the training data must be in the same feature space and have the same distribution,and the model may need to be rebuilt when the spatial distribution changes.This paper presents a new ML-based algorithm,which combines the principal component analysis(PCA)-based neural network(NN)and transfer learning(TL)techniques(i.e.PCAeNNeTL)to conduct the stability analysis of slopes with different spatial distributions.The Monte Carlo coupled with finite element simulation is first conducted for data acquisition considering the spatial variability of cohesive strength or friction angle of soils from eight slopes with the same geometry.The PCA method is incorporated into the neural network algorithm(i.e.PCA-NN)to increase the computational efficiency by reducing the input variables.It is found that the PCA-NN algorithm performs well in improving the prediction of slope stability for a given slope in terms of the computational accuracy and computational effort when compared with the other two algorithms(i.e.NN and decision trees,DT).Furthermore,the PCAeNNeTL algorithm shows great potential in assessing the stability of slope even with fewer training data.

文摘Patent transfer has been regarded as an important channel for the nations and regions to acquire external technology,and also a direct research object to depict the relationship between supply and demand of technology flow.Therefore,based on traceable patent transfer data,this article has established a dual-pipeline theoretical framework of transnational-domestic technology transfer from the interaction of the global and local(glocal)perspective,and combines social networks,GIS spatial analysis as well as spatial econometric model to discover the spatial evolution of China’s transnational technology channels and its determinant factors.It is found that:(1)The spatial heterogeneity of the overall network is significant while gradually weakened over time.(2)The eastward shift of the core cities involved in transnational technology channels is accelerating,from the hubs in North America(New York Bay Area,Silicon Valley,Caribbean offshore financial center,etc.)and West Europe(London offshore financial center etc.)to East Asia(Tokyo and Seoul)and Southeast Asia(Singapore),which illustrates China has decreased reliance on the technology from the USA and West Europe.(3)The four major innovation clusters:Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region(Beijing as the hub),Yangtze River Delta(Shanghai as the hub),The Greater Bay Area(Shenzhen and Hong Kong as the hubs)and north Taiwan(Taipei and Hsinchu as the hubs),are regarded as global technology innovation hubs and China’s distribution centers in transnational technology flow.Among those,Chinese Hong Kong’s betweenness role of technology is strengthened due to linkage of transnational corporations and their branches,and low tax coverage of offshore finance,thus becoming the top city for technology transfer.Meanwhile,Chinese Taiwan’s core position is diminishing.(4)The breadth,intensity,and closeness of domestic technology transfer are conducive to the expansion of transnational technology import channels.Additionally,local economic level has positive effect on transnational technology transfer channels while technology strength and external economic linkage have multifaceted influences.
文摘In recent years,deep learning models represented by convolutional neural networks have shown incomparable advantages in image recognition and have been widely used in various fields.In the diagnosis of sucker-rod pump working conditions,due to the lack of a large-scale dynamometer card data set,the advantages of a deep convolutional neural network are not well reflected,and its application is limited.Therefore,this paper proposes an intelligent diagnosis method of the working conditions in sucker-rod pump wells based on transfer learning,which is used to solve the problem of too few samples in a dynamometer card data set.Based on the dynamometer cards measured in oilfields,image classification and preprocessing are conducted,and a dynamometer card data set including 10 typical working conditions is created.On this basis,using a trained deep convolutional neural network learning model,model training and parameter optimization are conducted,and the learned deep dynamometer card features are transferred and applied so as to realize the intelligent diagnosis of dynamometer cards.The experimental results show that transfer learning is feasible,and the performance of the deep convolutional neural network is better than that of the shallow convolutional neural network and general fully connected neural network.The deep convolutional neural network can effectively and accurately diagnose the working conditions of sucker-rod pump wells and provide an effective method to solve the problem of few samples in dynamometer card data sets.

文摘An alternative scheme is proposed to transfer quantum states and prepare a quantum network in cavity QED. It is based on the interaction of a two-mode cavity field with a three-level V-type atom. In the scheme, the atom-cavity field interaction is resonant, thus the time required to complete the quantum state transfer process is greatly shortened, which is very important in view of decoherence. Moreover, the present scheme does not require one mode of the cavities to be initially prepared in one-photon state, thus it is more experimentally feasible than the previous ones.
