The conventional method of retransmitting lost information during transmission, commonly used in data transmission protocols, increases transmission delay and consumes excessive bandwidth. To overcome this issue, forward error correction techniques, e.g., Random Linear Network Coding(RLNC) can be used in data transmission. The primary challenge in RLNC-based methodologies is sustaining a consistent coding ratio during data transmission, leading to notable bandwidth usage and transmission delay in dynamic network conditions. Therefore, this study proposes a new block-based RLNC strategy known as Adjustable RLNC(ARLNC), which dynamically adjusts the coding ratio and transmission window during runtime based on the estimated network error rate calculated via receiver feedback. The calculations in this approach are performed using a Galois field with the order of 256. Furthermore, we assessed ARLNC's performance by subjecting it to various error models such as Gilbert Elliott, exponential, and constant rates and compared it with the standard RLNC. The results show that dynamically adjusting the coding ratio and transmission window size based on network conditions significantly enhances network throughput and reduces total transmission delay in most scenarios. In contrast to the conventional RLNC method employing a fixed coding ratio, the presented approach has demonstrated significant enhancements, resulting in a 73% decrease in transmission delay and a 4 times augmentation in throughput. However, in dynamic computational environments, ARLNC generally incurs higher computational costs than the standard RLNC but excels in high-performance networks.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer patients often face complex treatment processes and psychological challenges,with different treatment modalities potentially affecting patients’psychological adjustment abilities.AIM To explore the differences in psychological adjustment patterns among ovarian cancer patients receiving surgery,chemotherapy,targeted therapy,and combined therapy,and to analyze their relationship with clinical outcomes.METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 286 ovarian cancer patients who received different treatment modalities from January 2020 to December 2023.Patients were divided into surgery group(n=78),chemotherapy group(n=65),targeted therapy group(n=61),and combined therapy group(n=82).The Self-Rating Anxiety Scale,Self-Rating Depression Scale,and Psychological Adjustment to Cancer Scale were used to assess psychological status,while quality of life,treatment adherence,and two-year survival rate data were collected.Some patients(n=76)received systematic psychological intervention,and the intervention effects were evaluated.RESULTS Patients in the combined therapy group had significantly higher Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(56.3±7.2)and Self-Rating Depression Scale(58.4±6.9)scores than other groups,with the highest incidence of anxiety(58.5%)and depression(62.2%);the targeted therapy group scored highest in the positive coping dimension(28.5±3.6)and had the lowest incidence of anxiety and depression(29.5%/31.1%).Logistic regression analysis showed that positive coping(odds ratio=2.86,95%confidence interval:1.75-4.68)and utilization of social support(odds ratio=2.13,95%confidence interval:1.42-3.56)were protective factors for good treatment adherence.Longitudinal assessment showed that although all patients experienced increased anxiety and depression symptoms at 3 months of treatment,the targeted therapy group and surgery group showed significant improvement at 6 months(P<0.05),while the combined therapy group showed no significant improvement.Psychological intervention effectively improved patients’treatment adherence(by 22.7%)and quality of life(by 15.6 points),with the best effect in the combined therapy group(anxiety incidence decreased by 30.5%,P<0.001).CONCLUSION Different treatment modalities significantly affect the psychological adjustment abilities of ovarian cancer patients,with combined therapy patients facing greater psychological challenges,while targeted therapy patients exhibit healthier psychological adjustment patterns.

文摘How the strong segmentation of cascade reservoir dams and the spatiotemporal changes of sediment retention volume affect the river morphology adjustment in the reservoir area is a scientific issue worthy of exploration.This study aims to reveal the adjustment mechanism of the thalweg longitudinal profile of cascade reservoirs.This study focuses on the Xiangjiaba and Xiluodu reservoirs located in the lower reaches of the Jinsha River.Utilizing multi-period observational data of thalweg elevation in reservoir reaches both before and after dam construction,the research employs statistical,geomorphological,and sedimentological methodologies to analyze variation characteristics in the measured curves,trend curves,and theoretical fitting curves of the thalweg longitudinal profile.The investigation ultimately reveals two distinct adjustment patterns in the longitudinal profiles of these cascade reservoirs:the concave curve type and the convex curve type.The former is characterized by weak riverbed scouring and silting changed to rapid aggradation in the upstream section of the reservoir area after dam closure,then changed to slow aggradation in the whole reservoir area,which is the common feature of reservoirs that were built earlier and are relatively located in the downstream(such as the Xiangjiaba Reservoir).The latter is characterized by a straight line or concave curve type with weak riverbed scouring and silting before the dam closure changed to a convex curve type with strong siltation after dam closure,which is the characteristic of reservoirs that were built later and are relatively located in the upstream(such as the Xiluodu Reservoir).The adjustment of the cascade reservoir longitudinal profile is controlled by the spatiotemporal changes of the sediment deposition volume and sedimentation rate in the reservoir area,and the alternating changes of the hydrodynamic gradient and regulation mode affect the spatial heterogeneity of the sedimentation rate.The research results are helpful for understanding the adjustment mechanism of the cascade reservoir longitudinal profile in similar areas and have a guiding role in predicting the adjustment trend of the cascade reservoir longitudinal profile without observation data.

文摘This longitudinal study examined the association between parental autonomy support and school-aged children’s adjustment across four major domains of school functioning,as well as the mediating role of children’s executive function.Participants were 476 school-aged children(girl:49.2%,M_(age)=10.49 years,SD=1.32 years),who completed the Psychological Autonomy Support Scale,the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function–2,and the Primary School Students’Psychological Suzhi Scale at baseline and at two subsequent follow-up assessments.Results from unconditional latent growth curve models and structural equation modeling indicated that paternal autonomy support was a significant predictor of children’s adjustment across all four school domains.In contrast,maternal autonomy support was significantly associated only with interpersonal adjustment.Both the intercept(initial level)and slope(rate of change)of children’s executive function significantly predicted their adjustment in all four domains.Notably,the initial level of executive function fully mediated the association between paternal autonomy support and school adjustment,whereas the rate of change in executive function did not serve as a significant mediator.Thesefindings underscore the importance of promoting parental autonomy-supportive behaviors-particularly among fathers-as a means to enhance children’s executive functioning and,consequently,their school adjustment.

文摘Dynamic stress adjustment in deep-buried high geostress hard rock tunnels frequently triggers catastrophic failures such as rockbursts and collapses.While a comprehensive understanding of this process is critical for evaluating surrounding rock stability,its dynamic evolution are often overlooked in engineering practice.This study systematically summarizes a novel classification framework for stress adjustment types—stabilizing(two-zoned),shallow failure(three-zoned),and deep failure(four-zoned)—characterized by distinct stress adjustment stages.A dynamic interpretation technology system is developed based on microseismic monitoring,integrating key microseismic parameters(energy index EI,apparent stressσa,microseismic activity S),seismic source parameter space clustering,and microseismic paths.This approach enables precise identification of evolutionary stages,stress adjustment types,and failure precursors,thereby elucidating the intrinsic linkage between geomechanical processes(stress redistribution)and failure risks.The study establishes criteria and procedures for identifying stress adjustment types and their associated failure risks,which were successfully applied in the Grand Canyon Tunnel of the E-han Highway to detect 50 instances of disaster risks.The findings offer invaluable insights into understanding the evolution process of stress adjustment and pinpointing the disaster risks linked to hard rock in comparable high geostress tunnels.
文摘In mobile computing environments, most IoT devices connected to networks experience variable error rates and possess limited bandwidth. The conventional method of retransmitting lost information during transmission, commonly used in data transmission protocols, increases transmission delay and consumes excessive bandwidth. To overcome this issue, forward error correction techniques, e.g., Random Linear Network Coding(RLNC) can be used in data transmission. The primary challenge in RLNC-based methodologies is sustaining a consistent coding ratio during data transmission, leading to notable bandwidth usage and transmission delay in dynamic network conditions. Therefore, this study proposes a new block-based RLNC strategy known as Adjustable RLNC(ARLNC), which dynamically adjusts the coding ratio and transmission window during runtime based on the estimated network error rate calculated via receiver feedback. The calculations in this approach are performed using a Galois field with the order of 256. Furthermore, we assessed ARLNC's performance by subjecting it to various error models such as Gilbert Elliott, exponential, and constant rates and compared it with the standard RLNC. The results show that dynamically adjusting the coding ratio and transmission window size based on network conditions significantly enhances network throughput and reduces total transmission delay in most scenarios. In contrast to the conventional RLNC method employing a fixed coding ratio, the presented approach has demonstrated significant enhancements, resulting in a 73% decrease in transmission delay and a 4 times augmentation in throughput. However, in dynamic computational environments, ARLNC generally incurs higher computational costs than the standard RLNC but excels in high-performance networks.

文摘The demand for high-precision large-aperture antennas has continued to increase owing to the expanding application of spaceborne deployable active phased array antennas in remote sensing observation,satellite communication,navigation positioning,and deep space exploration.However,deployment errors in deployable mechanisms,particularly hinge-induced deflection errors during array surface deployment,degrade on-orbit surface accuracy.This study proposes an active adjustment strategy that installs compliant parallel mechanisms on the backplane of antenna subarrays to regulate surface splicing precision.For one-dimensional(1D)deployable antennas,a two-translation one-rotation(2T1R)parallel mechanism configuration is employed for precision adjustment,whereas two-dimensional(2D)deployable antennas adopt a one-translation two-rotation(1T2R)configuration.A reconfigurable parallel mechanism architecture satisfying space deployment constraints-the 3PSS-2RPU-UPR/RPU parallel mechanism-is designed via configuration synthesis.The degrees of freedom(DOF)are verified via the screw theory,with complete inverse kinematics solutions derived.Search algorithms further quantify the adjustment workspace while clarifying the coupling relationships between DOFs.Equivalent compliant parallel mechanism models are obtained using the rigid-body replacement method,followed by a compliance analysis and motion simulation of compliant joints(notched flexure hinges and leaf-spring flexure prismatic joints).A systematic investigation of the deformation characteristics under different actuation modes confirmed the validity of the equivalent models.Ground experiments demonstrated close agreement between the measured and simulated adjustments,with open-loop adjustment errors constituting less than 10%of the adjustment range,thereby validating the feasibility of the method.The precision adjustment mechanism achieved configuration switching(2T1R/1T2R)through an inverted central limb design,integrating dual-mode compensation into a reconfigurable system.

文摘The phenomenon of attenuation and scattering of light propagating in water leads to such problems as color deviation and blur in underwater imaging.These problems bring great challenges to the subsequent feature matching,target recognition and other tasks.Therefore,this paper proposes an underwater image enhancement method by double compensation with comparative adjustment or edge reinforcement.The experiments have found that the proposed method has good underwater color image quality evaluation(UCIQE)value,underwater image quality measures(UIQM)value,and the number of feature matching points.This demonstrates that the proposed method has good color correction ability for underwater images with different attenuation levels,where the processed images have more details suitable for feature matching.

文摘Background Based on the China-VHD database,this study sought to develop and validate a Valvular Heart Disease-specific Age-adjusted Comorbidity Index(VHD-ACI)for predicting mortality risk in patients with VHD.Methods&Results The China-VHD study was a nationwide,multi-centre multi-centre cohort study enrolling 13,917 patients with moderate or severe VHD across 46 medical centres in China between April-June 2018.After excluding cases with missing key variables,11,459 patients were retained for final analysis.The primary endpoint was 2-year all-cause mortality,with 941 deaths(10.0%)observed during follow-up.The VHD-ACI was derived after identifying 13 independent mortality predictors:cardiomyopathy,myocardial infarction,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,pulmonary artery hypertension,low body weight,anaemia,hypoalbuminaemia,renal insufficiency,moderate/severe hepatic dysfunction,heart failure,cancer,NYHA functional class and age.The index exhibited good discrimination(AUC,0.79)and calibration(Brier score,0.062)in the total cohort,outperforming both EuroSCORE II and ACCI(P<0.001 for comparison).Internal validation through 100 bootstrap iterations yielded a C statistic of 0.694(95%CI:0.665−0.723)for 2-year mortality prediction.VHD-ACI scores,as a continuous variable(VHD-ACI score:adjusted HR(95%CI):1.263(1.245-1.282),P<0.001)or categorized using thresholds determined by the Yoden index(VHDACI≥9 vs.<9,adjusted HR(95%CI):6.216(5.378-7.184),P<0.001),were independently associated with mortality.The prognostic performance remained consistent across all VHD subtypes(aortic stenosis,aortic regurgitation,mitral stenosis,mitral regurgitation,tricuspid valve disease,mixed aortic/mitral valve disease and multiple VHD),and clinical subgroups stratified by therapeutic strategy,LVEF status(preserved vs.reduced),disease severity and etiology.Conclusion The VHD-ACI is a simple 13-comorbidity algorithm for the prediction of mortality in VHD patients and providing a simple and rapid tool for risk stratification.

文摘The electricity-hydrogen integrated energy system(EH-IES)enables synergistic operation of electricity,heat,and hydrogen subsystems,supporting renewable energy integration and efficient multi-energy utilization in future low carbon societies.However,uncertainties from renewable energy and load variability threaten system safety and economy.Conventional chance-constrained programming(CCP)ensures reliable operation by limiting risk.However,increasing source-load uncertainties that can render CCP models infeasible and exacerbate operational risks.To address this,this paper proposes a risk-adjustable chance-constrained goal programming(RACCGP)model,integrating CCP and goal programming to balance risk and cost based on system risk assessment.An intelligent nonlinear goal programming method based on the state transition algorithm(STA)is developed,along with an improved discretized step transformation,to handle model nonlinearity and enhance computational efficiency.Experimental results show that the proposed model reduces costs while controlling risk compared to traditional CCP,and the solution method outperforms average sample sampling in efficiency and solution quality.

文摘The photovoltaic(PV)output process is inherently complex,often disrupted by a multitude of meteoro-logical factors,while conventional detection methods at PV power stations prove inadequate,compromising prediction accuracy.To address this challenge,this paper introduces a power prediction method that leverages modal switching(MS),weight factor adjustment(WFA),and parallel long short-term memory(PALSTM).Initially,historical PV power station data is categorized into distinct modes based on global horizontal irradiance and converted solar angles.Correlation analysis is then employed to evaluate the impact of various meteorological factors on PV power,selecting those with strong correlations for each specific mode.Subsequently,the weights of meteorological parameters are optimized and adjusted,and a PALSTM neural network is constructed,with its parallel modal parameters refined through training.Depending on the prediction time and input data mode characteristics,the appropriate mode channel is selected to forecast PV power station generation.Ultimately,the feasibility of this method is validated through an illustrative analysis of measured data from an Australian PV power station.Comparative test results underscore the method’s advantages,particularly in scenarios where existing detection methods are lacking and meteorological factors frequently fluctuate,demonstrating its superior prediction accuracy and stability.

文摘Achieving efficient adsorption and separation of C_(2)H_(2)/CO_(2)mixtures is a goal that people have always pursued to improve the situation of high energy consumption brought by traditional separation technologies in industry today.High-nuclearity metal cluster-based MOFs with different functionalities are promising for this separation,but it is a complicated and difficult task to precisely control their structures.The strategy of pore-space partition(PSP)is a powerful way to construct this type MOFs,which has the characteristic of isostructural relationship,and can be resulted in a similar performance for them.Therefore,it is an interesting work to explore the effect of MOFs property by adjusting the size of PSP dividers.Herein,three tetranuclear Cu(Ⅱ)cluster-based MOFs(FJU-112/113/114)with dual functionalities has been successfully obtained by PSP strategy with various lengths of divider units.With the highest microporosity and unique functional site,FJU-114 realized a good improvement in the adsorption and separation performance of C_(2)H_(2)/CO_(2).The gas adsorption and lab-scale C_(2)H_(2)/CO_(2)breakthrough experiments demonstrated that FJU-114 exhibits the highest adsorption uptake of 77 cm^(3)/g for C_(2)H_(2),and shows the best separation factor of 4.2 among three MOFs.The GCMC simulation reveals that a stronger adsorption binding site of C_(2)H_(2)in FJU-114a located in the cage II near the unchanged tetranuclear copper node,combined with its high microporosity to achieve the effect of dual functionalities for the improvement performance of C_(2)H_(2)adsorption and separation.
文摘Women diagnosed with breast cancer may have serious psychological problems and will suffer from adjustment disorder(AjD).We investigated the prevalence of AjD in female breast cancer patients who were diagnosed within 1 year and examined the severe life events they experienced,and the most common symptoms of AjD.342 newly diagnosed(<1 year)female breast cancer patients were recruited from Tongji Hospital and Hubei Cancer Hospital in Hubei,China,from July 2018 to May 2019.The patients completed the self-report questionnaire including demographic characteristics and the scale ADNM-20 for the diagnosis of AjD.SPSS20.0 was used for data analysis.As a result,the prevalence of AjD in breast cancer patients was 38.6%.Patients from rural areas and lacking of exercise were more likely to suffer from AjD(P<0.05).The prevalence of AjD in patients who did not regard breast cancer as the most severe life event was higher than that in patients who took breast cancer as the most severe life event(44.4%vs.33.9%,P<0.05;OR=1.728,95%CI=1.072-2.787).The symptom that scored highest was preoccupation(3.15).We found that the prevalence of AjD in women with breast cancer in this study is very high and warrants more attention.Patients from rural areas,lacking of exercise and subject to multiple stressors are more likely to suffer from AjD.The commonest and severe symptom is preoccupation.
