However, recent advancements in deep learning techniques have provided a means to represent complex models. As a result, deep neural networks should be able to approximate the complex models, with a high degree of generalization. To achieve generalization, it is necessary to have a diverse range of examples in the training of the neural network, for example in data-driven FWI, training data should cover the expected subsurface models. To meet this requirement, we porposed a method to create geologically meaningful velocity models with complex structures and severe topography. However, it is important to note that generalization comes with its own set of challenges.Because of significant variation in topography of the generated velocity models, we need to include this information as an additional input data in training of the network. Therefore, we have transformed the seismic data to a fixed datum to incorporate geometric information. Additionally, we have enhanced the network's performance by introducing a term in the network loss function. Multiple metrics have been employed to evaluate the performance of the network. The results indicate that by providing the necessary information to the network and employing computational techniques to refine the model's accuracy, deep neural networks are capable of accurately estimating velocity models in complex environments characterized by extreme topography.展开更多

Consider the simply-connected, connected nilpotent Lie group Gk, defined by the nilpotent Lie algebra g/ak, where g is the Lie algebra of G, and ak is an ideal of g. Then, J gives rise to an almost complex structure Jk on Gk. The main conclusion obtained is as follows: if the almost complex structure J of a nilpotent Lie group G is nilpotent, then J can give rise to a left-invariant integrable almost complex structure Jk on the nilpotent Lie group Gk, and Jk is also nilpotent.展开更多

To resolve the difficulty of defect segmentation in variable grey image, the image processing based on Visual Basic programming method was adopted. The methods of automatic contrast and partial grey stretch were used to enhance the X-ray detection image which has relatively low contrast, then automatic threshold method was carried out to segment the two high intensity zones, and weld zones which contain the small defects was extracted. Smoothing and sharpen processing were proceeded on the extracted weld zones, and small defects in X-ray detection image of weldments with complex structure were segmented by using the method of background subtraction in the end. The effects of raster were eliminated, and because of that the image processing was only proceeded on the extracted weld zones, the calculated speed using the above provided algorithm was improved.展开更多

Although the stru...Phase transition and band structure tuned by uniaxial and biaxial strains are systematically investigated based on the density-functional theory for ordered All/2 Ga1/2N alloys of complex structures. Although the structural transformations to graphite-like from wurtzite are energetically favorable for both types of strain, the phase transitions are different in nature： the second-order transition induced by uniaxial strain is jointly driven by the mechanical and dynamical instabilities and the first-order transition by biaxial strain only by the mechanical instability. The wurtzite phase always shows the direct band gap, while the band gap of the graphite-like phase is always indirect. Furthermore, the band gaps of the wurtzite phase can be reduced by both types of strain, while that of the graphite-like phase is enhanced by uniaxial strain and is suppressed by biaxial strain.展开更多

The wettability of the above film surfaces was modified with a simple coating of heptadecafluorodecyltrimethoxy-silane in toluene. After modifying, the surface of ZnO film grown at 50℃ was converted from superhydrophilic with a water contact angle lower than 5° to superhydrophobic with a water contact angle of 165° Additionally, the surface of reticulate papillary nodes ZnO film grown at 100 ℃ had excellent superhydrophobicity, with a water contact angle of 173° and a sliding angle lower than 2° Furthermore, the water contact angle on the surface of petal-like and flake-hole ZnO films grown at 150℃ and 200℃ were found to be 140° and 120°, respectively. The wettability for the samples was found to depend strongly on the surface morphology which results from the growth temperature.展开更多

Based on this verification, dynamic character parameters of all FE models simulating each phase of the structure's launching out of water are abstracted with unsymmetric algorithm, which can comprehensively describe the dynamic characters of the structure in its whole working process. Conclusions drawned from these calculations are successfully applied in works of evaluating the structure's performances and reliabilities.展开更多

文摘The canonical description of structures comprises two aspects:(1)basic structural elements and(2)arrangement pattern between those elements.This tidy description has been very successful and facilitates the development of structural physics tremendously,enabling the classification,comparison and analysis of an extremely wide range of structures,including crystals,quasi-crystals,liquid crystals,semi-crystalline materials and so on.However,it has been gradually realized that many novel materials and devices exhibit random structures in which either basic elements or arrangement patterns may not exist.With the rapid development of modern advanced materials,this type of apparently random structure pops up frequently,leaving researchers struggling with how to describe,classify and quantitatively compare them.This paper proposes the utilization of statistical characteristics as the major indicators for the description of apparently random structures.Specifically,we have explored many statistical properties,including power spectral density,histograms,structural complexity,entropic complexity,autocorrelation,etc.,and found that autocorrelation may serve as a promising statistical proxy to distinguish similar-looking random structures.We discuss eight atomic force microscope images of random structures,demonstrating that autocorrelation can be used to distinguish them.In addition,14 more diverse datasets are used to support this conclusion,including atomic force microscopy images of polymers and non-polymers,transmission electron microscopy images of nanocomposite layers and scanning electron microscopy images of non-polymers.

文摘The suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hypothalamus is the master circadian clock in mammals,coordinating physiological processes with the 24-hour day–night cycle.Comprising various cell types,the suprachiasmatic nucleus(SCN)integrates environmental signals to maintain complex and robust circadian rhythms.Understanding the complexity and synchrony within SCN neurons is essential for effective circadian clock function.Synchrony involves coordinated neuronal firing for robust rhythms,while complexity reflects diverse activity patterns and interactions,indicating adaptability.Interestingly,the SCN retains circadian rhythms in vitro,demonstrating intrinsic rhythmicity.This study introduces the multiscale structural complexity method to analyze changes in SCN neuronal activity and complexity at macro and micro levels,based on Bagrov et al.’s approach.By examining structural complexity and local complexities across scales,we aim to understand how tetrodotoxin,a neurotoxin that inhibits action potentials,affects SCN neurons.Our method captures critical scales in neuronal interactions that traditional methods may overlook.Validation with the Goodwin model confirms the reliability of our observations.By integrating experimental data with theoretical models,this study provides new insights into the effects of tetrodotoxin(TTX)on neuronal complexities,contributing to the understanding of circadian rhythms.
