文摘AIM:To evaluate the efficacy of the total computer vision syndrome questionnaire(CVS-Q)score as a predictive tool for identifying individuals with symptomatic binocular vision anomalies and refractive errors.METHODS:A total of 141 healthy computer users underwent comprehensive clinical visual function assessments,including evaluations of refractive errors,accommodation(amplitude of accommodation,positive relative accommodation,negative relative accommodation,accommodative accuracy,and accommodative facility),and vergence(phoria,positive and negative fusional vergence,near point of convergence,and vergence facility).Total CVS-Q scores were recorded to explore potential associations between symptom scores and the aforementioned clinical visual function parameters.RESULTS:The cohort included 54 males(38.3%)with a mean age of 23.9±0.58y and 87 age-matched females(61.7%)with a mean age of 23.9±0.53y.The multiple regression model was statistically significant[R²=0.60,F=13.28,degrees of freedom(DF=17122,P<0.001].This indicates that 60%of the variance in total CVS-Q scores(reflecting reported symptoms)could be explained by four clinical measurements:amplitude of accommodation,positive relative accommodation,exophoria at distance and near,and positive fusional vergence at near.CONCLUSION:The total CVS-Q score is a valid and reliable tool for predicting the presence of various nonstrabismic binocular vision anomalies and refractive errors in symptomatic computer users.

文摘Detecting geomagnetic anomalies preceding earthquakes is a challenging yet promising area of research that has gained increasing attention in recent years.This study introduces a novel reconstruction-based modeling approach enhanced by negative learning,employing a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory(BiLSTM)network explicitly trained to accurately reconstruct non-seismic geomagnetic signals while intentionally amplifying reconstruction errors for seismic signals.By penalizing the model for accurately reconstructing seismic anomalies,the negative learning approach effectively magnifies the differences between normal and anomalous data.This strategic differentiation enhances the sensitivity of the BiLSTM network,enabling improved detection of subtle geomagnetic anomalies that may serve as earthquake precursors.Experimental validation clearly demonstrated statistically significant higher reconstruction errors for seismic signals compared to non-seismic signals,confirmed through the Mann-Whitney U test with a p-value of 0.0035 for Root Mean Square Error(RMSE).These results provide compelling evidence of the enhanced anomaly detection capability achieved through negative learning.Unlike traditional classification-based methods,negative learning explicitly encourages sensitivity to subtle precursor signals embedded within complex geomagnetic data,establishing a robust basis for further development of reliable earthquake prediction methods.

文摘In recent years,the global installed capacity of wind power has grown rapidly,making the enhancement of wind power prediction accuracy crucial for facilitating the integration and consumption of renewable energy.Current research on ultra-short-term wind power prediction often overlooks load characteristics,resulting in an inability to adequately address grid connection requirements and load dispatching demands across different time periods.To address this limitation,this study proposes a novel approach to ultra-short-term wind power prediction error correction that incorporates load peak-valley characteristics.The methodology involves three key steps:first,deriving interannual prediction error characteristics from ultra-short-term prediction results of wind farm clusters;second,establishing error correction intervals for load peak and valley periods,calculating corresponding correction coefficients,and analyzing the impact of varying correction radii on the final results;third,validating the proposed method through empirical analysis of wind farm clusters in three northeastern provinces.The results demonstrate that this approach not only improves wind power prediction accuracy but also significantly reduces the occurrence of harmful error days,thereby better meeting the operational requirements of power system dispatch.

文摘Mobile communications are reaching out to every aspect of our daily life,necessitating highefficiency data transmission and support for diverse data types and communication scenarios.Polar codes have emerged as a promising solution due to their outstanding error-correction performance and low complexity.Unequal error protection(UEP)involves nonuniform error safeguarding for distinct data segments,achieving a fine balance between error resilience and resource allocation,which ultimately enhancing system performance and efficiency.In this paper,we propose a novel class of UEP rateless polar codes.The codes are designed based on matrix extension of polar codes,and elegant mapping and duplication operations are designed to achieve UEP property while preserving the overall performance of conventional polar codes.Superior UEP performance is attained without significant modifications to conventional polar codes,making it straightforward for compatibility with existing polar codes.A theoretical analysis is conducted on the block error rate and throughput efficiency performance.To the best of our knowledge,this work provides the first theoretical performance analysis of UEP rateless polar codes.Simulation results show that the proposed codes significantly outperform existing polar coding schemes in both block error rate and throughput efficiency.

文摘In an ultraprecision turning process for small-diameter optical aspheric workpieces,tool-profile errors induce mid-frequency errors in the workpiece profile,limiting further improvements in precision.In this study,an XZB three-axis linkage ultraprecision machining method is proposed,and the effects of tool-center errors are analyzed.To address residual errors in Z-direction profile-error compensation,a workpiece normal-profile-error compensation method is proposed.After XZB three-axis linkage turning and compensation,the workpiece profile error(PV)reaches 0.086μm,surpassing the precision of XZ two-axis machining,and mid-frequency errors are reduced.Compared with Z-direction profile-error compensation,which results in a profile error of 0.092μm,normal-profile-error compensation reduces PV to 0.047μm,considerably improving aspheric accuracy.Experimental results demonstrate that XZB three-axis linkage machining significantly improves the aspheric workpiece profile,enhancing both its accuracy and surface quality.This method reduces mid-frequency errors,and the subsequent application of normal-profile-error compensation further refines the profile,achieving higher overall accuracy.

文摘Conventional error cancellation approaches separate molecules into smaller fragments and sum the errors of all fragments to counteract the overall computational error of the parent molecules.However,these approaches may be ineffective for systems with strong localized chemical effects,as fragmenting specific substructures into simpler chemical bonds can introduce additional errors instead of mitigating them.To address this issue,we propose the Substructure-Preserved Connection-Based Hierarchy(SCBH),a method that automatically identifies and freezes substructures with significant local chemical effects prior to molecular fragmentation.The SCBH is validated by the gas-phase enthalpy of formation calculation of CHNO molecules.Therein,based on the atomization scheme,the reference and test values are derived at the levels of Gaussian-4(G4)and M062X/6-31+G(2df,p),respectively.Compared to commonly used approaches,SCBH reduces the average computational error by half and requires only15%of the computational cost of G4 to achieve comparable accuracy.Since different types of local effect structures have differentiated influences on gas-phase enthalpy of formation,substituents with strong electronic effects should be retained preferentially.SCBH can be readily extended to diverse classes of organic compounds.Its workflow and source code allow flexible customization of molecular moieties,including azide,carboxyl,trinitromethyl,phenyl,and others.This strategy facilitates accurate,rapid,and automated computations and corrections,making it well-suited for high-throughput molecular screening and dataset construction for gas-phase enthalpy of formation.
文摘Inborn errors of metabolism(IEMs)are a large group of disorders resulting from deficient activities in several metabolic pathways due to the dysfunction of a distinct enzyme associated with a biochemical pathway[1,2].Toxic intermediates will be produced due to the dysfunction of biochemical pathways.The liver is responsible for many essential metabolic processes,therefore it becomes one of the most severely affected organ by metabolic diseases[3].Early onset of liver disorders in IEMs includes jaundice,hepatomegaly,splenomegaly,ascites,hepatic encephalopathy,and liver failure[4].In infants and young children under 3 years old with acute liver failure(ALF),IEMs account for 18.9%-43%[5].
文摘Inborn errors of metabolism(IEM)are rare disorders,most are liver-based with liver transplantation(LT)emerging as an effective cure in the pediatric population.LT has been shown to offer a cure or deter disease progression and provide symptomatic improvement in patients with IEM.Each metabolic disorder is unique,with the missing enzyme or transporter protein causing substrate deficiency or toxic byproduct production.Knowledge about the distribution of deficient enzymes,the percentage of enzymes replaced by LT,and the extent of extrahepatic involvement helps anticipate and manage complications in the perioperative period.Most patients have multisystem involvement and can be on complex dietary regimens.Metabolic decompensation can be triggered due to the stress response to surgery,fasting and other unanticipated complications perioperatively.Thus,a multidisciplinary team’s input including those from metabolic specialists is essential to develop disease and patient-specific strategies for the perioperative management of these patients during LT.In this review,we outline the classification of IEM,indications for LT along with potential benefits,basic metabolic defects and their implications,details of extrahepatic involvement and perioperative management strategies for LT in children with some of the commonly presenting IEM,to assist anesthesiologists handling this cohort of patients.
