文摘Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces(RISs)not only assist communication but also help the localization of user equipment(UE).This study focuses on indoor localization of UE with a single access point(AP)and multiple RISs.First,we propose a two-stage channel estimation scheme where RIS phase shifts are tuned to obtain multiple channel soundings.In the first stage,the newtonized orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm extracts the parameters of multiple paths from the received signals.Then,the LOS path and RISreflected paths are identified.In the second stage,the estimated path gains of RIS-reflected paths with different phase shifts are utilized to determine the angle of arrival(AOA)at the RIS by obtaining the angular pseudo spectrum.Consequently,by taking the AP and RISs as reference points,the linear least squares estimator can locate UE with the estimated AOAs.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can realize centimeter-level localization accuracy in the discussed scenarios.Moreover,the higher accuracy of pseudo spectrum,a larger number of channel soundings,and a larger number of reference points can realize higher localization accuracy of UE.

文摘Under the condition of frequent replacement of wind tunnel models,multiple types of wind tunnel models are fixed by a slender support sting with low stiffness damping.When excited by wind load,various models produce random multi-dimensional vibration with different characteristics,which makes it impossible to obtain accurate and efficient aerodynamic data.Therefore,in order to ensure the reliable and efficient conduction of wind tunnel test,a wind-tunnel-modeladaptive vibration control method is proposed in this paper.First,the split type adaptive vibration suppression structure is designed.Second,the multi-dimensional vibration characteristic characterization method is derived and the vibration characteristic identification method of the system is designed.Then,a vibration state estimation model is established according to the identification results of vibration characteristics,and a multi-actuator cooperative control method based on vibration state estimation is constructed.Finally,a model-adaptive vibration control system is built,and vibration characteristics identification and hammer experiments are carried out for two types of typical models.The results show that the proposed model-adaptive vibration control method increases the equivalent damping ratio of pitch and yaw dimensions of the high-aspect-ratio class model by 8.19 times and 48.81 times,respectively.The equivalent damping ratio of pitch and yaw dimensions of the highslenderness-ratio class model is increased by 16.44 and 5.43 times,respectively.It provides a strong guarantee for the reliable and efficient development of multi-type wind tunnel test tasks.

文摘(Quasi-)closed-form results for the statistical properties of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)airto-ground channels are derived for the first time using a novel spatial-vector-based method from a threedimensional(3-D)arbitrary-elevation one-cylinder model.The derived results include a closed-form expression for the space-time correlation function and some quasi-closed-form ones for the space-Doppler power spectrum density,the level crossing rate,and the average fading duration,which are shown to be the generalizations of those previously obtained from the two-dimensional(2-D)one-ring model and the 3-D low-elevation one-cylinder model for terrestrial mobile-to-mobile channels.The close agreements between the theoretical results and the simulations as well as the measurements validate the utility of the derived channel statistics.Based on the derived expressions,the impacts of some parameters on the channel characteristics are investigated in an effective,efficient,and explicable way,which leads to a general guideline on the manual parameter estimation from the measurement description.
文摘We investigated the impact of convexity and isoperimetric deficits on the accuracy of sectional area estimates of tree stems using traditional methods(caliper,tape,formulas based on stem diameter and circumference).In two complementary experiments,the use of photographs to estimate cross-sectional areas was first validated,then the use of a caliper and diameter tape was computer-simulated.The results indicated that the photographic method offers high precision,with mean relative errors below 0.1%,minimal deviation,and no significant bias,and the traditional methods led to substantial and systematic errors,with deviations from circularity and convexity significantly increasing the errors in area estimation.

文摘Accurate estimation of photovoltaic(PV)parameters is essential for optimizing solar module perfor-mance and enhancing resource efficiency in renewable energy systems.This study presents a process innovation by introducing,for the first time,the Triangulation Topology Aggregation Optimizer(TTAO)integrated with parallel computing to address PV parameter estimation challenges.The effectiveness and robustness of TTAO are rigorously evaluated using two standard benchmark datasets(KC200GT and R.T.C.France solar cells)and a real-world dataset(Poly70W solar module)under single-,double-,and triple-diode configurations.Results show that TTAO consistently achieves superior accuracy by producing the lowest RMSE values and faster convergence compared to state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms.In addition,the integration of parallel computing significantly enhances computational efficiency,reducing execution time by up to 85%without compromising accuracy.Validation using real-world data further demonstrates TTAO’s adaptability and practical relevance in renewable energy systems,effectively bridging the gap between theoretical modeling and real-world implementation for PV system monitoring and optimization,contributing to climate mitigation through improved solar energy performance.

文摘Accurately estimating depth from underwater monocular images is essential for the target tracking task of unmanned underwater vehicles.This work proposes a method based on the Lpg-Lap Unet architecture.First,the Unet architecture integrates Laplacian pyramid depth residuals and Sobel operators to improve the boundary details in depth images,which may suffer from the feature loss caused by upsampling and the blurriness of underwater images.Multiscale local planar guidance layers then fully exploit the intermediate depth features,and a comprehensive loss function ensures robustness and accuracy.Experimental results on benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of Lpg-Lap Unet and its superior performance over state-of-the-art models.An underwater target tracking system is then designed to further validate its real-time capabilities in the AirSim simulation platform.

文摘Accurate time delay estimation of target echo signals is a critical component of underwater target localization.In active sonar systems,echo signal processing is vulnerable to the effects of reverberation and noise in the maritime environment.This paper proposes a novel method for estimating target time delay using multi-bright spot echoes,assuming the target’s size and depth are known.Aiming to effectively enhance the extraction of geometric features from the target echoes and mitigate the impact of reverberation and noise,the proposed approach employs the fractional order Fourier transform-frequency sliced wavelet transform to extract multi-bright spot echoes.Using the highlighting model theory and the target size information,an observation matrix is constructed to represent multi-angle incident signals and obtain the theoretical scattered echo signals from different angles.Aiming to accurately estimate the target’s time delay,waveform similarity coefficients and mean square error values between the theoretical return signals and received signals are computed across various incident angles and time delays.Simulation results show that,compared to the conventional matched filter,the proposed algorithm reduces the relative error by 65.9%-91.5%at a signal-to noise ratio of-25 dB,and by 66.7%-88.9%at a signal-to-reverberation ratio of−10 dB.This algorithm provides a new approach for the precise localization of submerged targets in shallow water environments.

文摘Accurate prediction of remaining useful life serves as a reliable basis for maintenance strategies,effectively reducing both the frequency of failures and associated costs.As a core component of PHM,RUL prediction plays a crucial role in preventing equipment failures and optimizing maintenance decision-making.However,deep learning models often falter when processing raw,noisy temporal signals,fail to quantify prediction uncertainty,and face challenges in effectively capturing the nonlinear dynamics of equipment degradation.To address these issues,this study proposes a novel deep learning framework.First,a newbidirectional long short-termmemory network integrated with an attention mechanism is designed to enhance temporal feature extraction with improved noise robustness.Second,a probabilistic prediction framework based on kernel density estimation is constructed,incorporating residual connections and stochastic regularization to achieve precise RUL estimation.Finally,extensive experiments on the C-MAPSS dataset demonstrate that our method achieves competitive performance in terms of RMSE and Score metrics compared to state-of-the-artmodels.More importantly,the probabilistic output provides a quantifiablemeasure of prediction confidence,which is crucial for risk-informed maintenance planning,enabling managers to optimize maintenance strategies based on a quantifiable understanding of failure risk.

文摘Human object detection and recognition is essential for elderly monitoring and assisted living however,models relying solely on pose or scene context often struggle in cluttered or visually ambiguous settings.To address this,we present SCENET-3D,a transformer-drivenmultimodal framework that unifies human-centric skeleton features with scene-object semantics for intelligent robotic vision through a three-stage pipeline.In the first stage,scene analysis,rich geometric and texture descriptors are extracted from RGB frames,including surface-normal histograms,angles between neighboring normals,Zernike moments,directional standard deviation,and Gabor-filter responses.In the second stage,scene-object analysis,non-human objects are segmented and represented using local feature descriptors and complementary surface-normal information.In the third stage,human-pose estimation,silhouettes are processed through an enhanced MoveNet to obtain 2D anatomical keypoints,which are fused with depth information and converted into RGB-based point clouds to construct pseudo-3D skeletons.Features from all three stages are fused and fed in a transformer encoder with multi-head attention to resolve visually similar activities.Experiments on UCLA(95.8%),ETRI-Activity3D(89.4%),andCAD-120(91.2%)demonstrate that combining pseudo-3D skeletonswith rich scene-object fusion significantly improves generalizable activity recognition,enabling safer elderly care,natural human–robot interaction,and robust context-aware robotic perception in real-world environments.

文摘A scheme is proposed based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with high phase sensitivity,utilizing a two-mode squeezed coherent state,generated by four-wave mixing,as input.The phase sensitivity of this scheme easily surpasses the Heisenberg limit when intensity difference detection is applied.Under phase-matching conditions,the quantum Cramér-Rao bound significantly exceeds the Heisenberg limit.Additionally,the scheme exhibits robustness against photon loss.When compared with the modified SU(1,1)interferometer with two coherent state inputs,this approach demonstrates superior measurement sensitivity,evaluated through various detection methods and the quantum Cramér-Rao bound.This work holds potential applications in quantum metrology.

文摘AIM:To construct an intelligent segmentation scheme for precise localization of central serous chorioretinopathy(CSC)leakage points,thereby enabling ophthalmologists to deliver accurate laser treatment without navigational laser equipment.METHODS:A dataset with dual labels(point-level and pixel-level)was first established based on fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA)images of CSC and subsequently divided into training(102 images),validation(40 images),and test(40 images)datasets.An intelligent segmentation method was then developed,based on the You Only Look Once version 8 Pose Estimation(YOLOv8-Pose)model and segment anything model(SAM),to segment CSC leakage points.Next,the YOLOv8-Pose model was trained for 200 epochs,and the best-performing model was selected to form the optimal combination with SAM.Additionally,the classic five types of U-Net series models[i.e.,U-Net,recurrent residual U-Net(R2U-Net),attention U-Net(AttU-Net),recurrent residual attention U-Net(R2AttUNet),and nested U-Net(UNet^(++))]were initialized with three random seeds and trained for 200 epochs,resulting in a total of 15 baseline models for comparison.Finally,based on the metrics including Dice similarity coefficient(DICE),intersection over union(IoU),precision,recall,precisionrecall(PR)curve,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,the proposed method was compared with baseline models through quantitative and qualitative experiments for leakage point segmentation,thereby demonstrating its effectiveness.RESULTS:With the increase of training epochs,the mAP50-95,Recall,and precision of the YOLOv8-Pose model showed a significant increase and tended to stabilize,and it achieved a preliminary localization success rate of 90%(i.e.,36 images)for CSC leakage points in 40 test images.Using manually expert-annotated pixel-level labels as the ground truth,the proposed method achieved outcomes with a DICE of 57.13%,an IoU of 45.31%,a precision of 45.91%,a recall of 93.57%,an area under the PR curve(AUC-PR)of 0.78 and an area under the ROC curve(AUC-ROC)of 0.97,which enables more accurate segmentation of CSC leakage points.CONCLUSION:By combining the precise localization capability of the YOLOv8-Pose model with the robust and flexible segmentation ability of SAM,the proposed method not only demonstrates the effectiveness of the YOLOv8-Pose model in detecting keypoint coordinates of CSC leakage points from the perspective of application innovation but also establishes a novel approach for accurate segmentation of CSC leakage points through the“detect-then-segment”strategy,thereby providing a potential auxiliary means for the automatic and precise realtime localization of leakage points during traditional laser photocoagulation for CSC.

文摘Based on monthly runoff and climate datasets spanning 2000–2024,this study employed the Theil–Sen’s slope estimation,Mann–Kendall(M–K)trend test,as well as Pearson correlation and Spearman rank correlation analyses to systematically examine the spatiotemporal patterns of runoff and its climatic driving mechanisms across Tajikistan,providing a scientific basis for sustainable water resource utilization and management in the study area.Results indicated that during 2000–2024,the annual runoff in Tajikistan exhibited statistically non-significant long-term trend(P=0.76),while displaying pronounced seasonal variability and strong spatial heterogeneity.Spring and summer average runoff primarily exhibited slight declining tendencies,while winter average runoff exhibited pronounced reduction in localized regions,such as the Syr Darya Basin,the Vakhsh River Basin,and the lower reaches of the Zeravshan River Basin.Precipitation emerged as the dominant positive driver of runoff,exhibiting moderate to strong positive correlations across over 78.00%of the country,whereas potential evapotranspiration consistently functioned as a negative driver.Rising temperatures exerted a dual competitive effect on runoff:in high-elevation,glacier-covered regions,rising temperatures temporarily increased runoff by accelerating glacier melt;however,at the national scale,the negative impact of rising temperature on runoff has played a slightly dominant role to a certain extent by enhancing evapotranspiration.Collectively,these results indicated that the present stability of runoff in Tajikistan is strongly dependent on the short-term compensatory effects of glacier melt and the risk of future runoff decline is likely to intensify as glacier reserves continue to diminish.This study provides a critical scientific evidence to inform sustainable water resource management in Tajikistan and underscores the need for glacier conservation and integrated water resource management strategies.

文摘In this paper,we propose and analyze two second-order accurate finite difference schemes for the one-dimensional heat equation with concentrated capacity on a computa-tional domain=[a,b].We first transform the target equation into the standard heat equation on the domain excluding the singular point equipped with an inner interface matching(IIM)condition on the singular point x=ξ∈(a,b),then adopt Taylor’s ex-pansion to approximate the IIM condition at the singular point and apply second-order finite difference method to approximate the standard heat equation at the nonsingular points.This discrete procedure allows us to choose different grid sizes to partition the two sub-domains[a,ξ]and[ξ,b],which ensures that x=ξ is a grid point,and hence the pro-posed schemes can be generalized to the heat equation with more than one concentrated capacities.We prove that the two proposed schemes are uniquely solvable.And through in-depth analysis of the local truncation errors,we rigorously prove that the two schemes are second-order accurate both in temporal and spatial directions in the maximum norm without any constraint on the grid ratio.Numerical experiments are carried out to verify our theoretical conclusions.
