In this paper, we combined digital outcrop geology and traditional geological mapping to build an outcrop-based geocellular model of the ramp-crest shoal complex of the Lower Triassic Feixianguan Formation in the Eastern Sichuan Basin. The outcrop model serves as an analogue for the subsurface reservoir of the Feixianguan Formation and illustrates the complexity of the lithofacies types, stratigraphic architecture, and reservoir heterogeneities at a scale below conventional subsurface data resolution. The studied ramp -crest shoal complex consists of thirteen types of lithofacies that can be grouped into three facies-groups corresponding to subtidal intraclastic shoal, sub- to inter-tidal oolitic shoal, and tidal flat depositional environments respectively. The stratigraphic architecture of the shoal complex shows mostly a strong progradation of the high energy facies associated with an overall decrease of accommodation space associated with relative sea level still stand. Two reservoir facies associations have been recognized. The first one consists of supratidai dolomudstone and upper intertidal partially dolomitized oolitic packstone with anhydrite or nodules. These facies were deposited above the high energy oolitic grainstones and occurs as thin-bedded and laterally continuous layers, characterized by high porosity and low permeability. The second reservoir facies association is composed of intertidal crystalline dolomite and subtidal intraclastic bindstone that occurs stratigraphically below the oolitic grainstones. These deposits consist of massive laterally discontinuously beds, and are characterized by high porosity and high permeability. Both types of reservoir facies tend to be stacked vertically and migrated laterally with the progradation of the shoal complex. The construction of the outcrop-based 3D geological model provide a description and quantification of the facies distribution within a robust stratigraphic framework and the style and amount of reservoir heterogeneities associated with a ramp-crest shoal complex reservoir such as the one found in Lower Triassic Feixianguan Formation and Cambrian Longwangmiao Formation in Sichuan Basin or other ramp-crest reservoir worldwide.展开更多

This paper presents an RBF neural network approach to modify and fit the digitized data. The centers for the RBF are selected by using the orthogonal least squares learning algorithm. A mathematically known surface is used for generating a number of samples for training the networks. The trained networks then generated a number of new points which were compared with the calculating points from the equations. Moreover, a series of practice digitizing curves are used to test the approach. The results showed that this approach is effective in modifying and fitting digitized data and generating data points to reconstruct the surface model.展开更多

This perception has contributed to an advancement in archaeological practice, namely, the development of computerized recording systems that digitally record archaeological excavations spatially and volumetrically during fieldwork. This paper is concerned with those archaeological sites where digital field recording has not been done. These sites, recorded by traditional methods, should not be excluded from attempts to restructure the spatial, volumetric, and stratigraphic archaeological data. A thorough methodology for the conversion of traditional records into digitized data is presented, including the detailed procedures required for three-dimensional plotting of recorded data—both the excavated material and the drawn site maps and cross-sections. Finally, the use of these methods is demonstrated on a complex Early to Middle Pleistocene site, illustrating the benefits of digitization and three-dimensional reconstruction in resolving stratigraphic and spatial questions.展开更多

文摘Background High-voltage analog X-ray examination is a main tool for pneumoconiosis,which is challenged by digital radiography （DR）.The tube voltage of DR chest films required for diagnosis and staging of pneumoconiosis is concerned technically.We investigated the influence of the tube voltage on chest X-ray DR image quality of patients exposed to occupational dust.Methods DR images of the CDRAD2.0model,an anatomical chest phantom,and 136 exposed workers were analyzed at different tube voltages by threereaders.Image quality factors （IQF） were calculated and compared using the CDRAD2.0 model.DR images of ten anatomic positions were scored against those of the high-kilovolt chest films in anatomical phantom and clinical cases,and differences in scores were analyzed.Results In the CDRAD2.0 model,all three readers had a minimal IQF at 120 kV （mean：22.25 kV）.The differences in the mean IQF of DR images at different tube voltages was significant （F=13.78,P〈0.001）.The IQF of DR imaging at 120 kV was similar to high kilovolt analog imaging （t=-0.58,P〉0.05）.In the anatomic phantom and clinical cases,the DR images at 120 kV were closest in anatomical detail to the high W analog images,and the means were similar （P〉0.05）.Conclusions Among different tube voltages,DR image quality is closest to the high kilovolt analog images at 120 kV in patients exposed to occupational dust.

文摘The event-based vision sensor(EVS),which can generate efficient spiking data streams by exclusively detecting motion,exemplifies neuromorphic vision methodologies.Generally,its inherent lack of texture features limits effectiveness in complex vision processing tasks,necessitating supplementary visual information.However,to date,no event-based hybrid vision solution has been developed that preserves the characteristics of complete spike data streams to support synchronous computation architectures based on spiking neural network(SNN).In this paper,we present a novel spike-based sensor with digitized pixels,which integrates the event detection structure with the pulse frequency modulation(PFM)circuit.This design enables the simultaneous output of spiking data that encodes both temporal changes and texture information.Fabricated in 180 nm process,the proposed sensor achieves a resolution of 128×128,a maximum event rate of 960 Meps,a grayscale frame rate of 117.1 kfps,and a measured power consumption of 60.1 mW,which is suited for high-speed,low-latency,edge SNNbased vision computing systems.
