Most researchers consider intra-class dependencies to improve localization accuracy. However, some studies show that inter-class method call type faults account for more than 20%, which means such methods still have certain limitations. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a two-phase software fault localization based on relational graph convolutional neural networks (Two-RGCNFL). Firstly, in Phase 1, the method call dependence graph (MCDG) of the program is constructed, the intra-class and inter-class dependencies in MCDG are extracted by using the relational graph convolutional neural network, and the classifier is used to identify the faulty methods. Then, the GraphSMOTE algorithm is improved to alleviate the impact of class imbalance on classification accuracy. Aiming at the problem of parallel ranking of element suspicious values in traditional SBFL technology, in Phase 2, Doc2Vec is used to learn static features, while spectrum information serves as dynamic features. A RankNet model based on siamese multi-layer perceptron is constructed to score and rank statements in the faulty method. This work conducts experiments on 5 real projects of Defects4J benchmark. Experimental results show that, compared with the traditional SBFL technique and two baseline methods, our approach improves the Top-1 accuracy by 262.86%, 29.59% and 53.01%, respectively, which verifies the effectiveness of Two-RGCNFL. Furthermore, this work verifies the importance of inter-class dependencies through ablation experiments.展开更多

文摘A multi-stage stress relaxation test was performed on a granodiorite sample to understand the deformation process prior to the macroscopic failure of brittle rocks,as well as the transient response during stress relaxation.Distributed optical fiber sensing was used to measure strains across the sample surface by helically wrapping the single-mode fiber around the cylindrical sample.Close agreement was observed between the circumferential strains obtained from the optical fibers and the extensometer.The reconstructed full-field strain contours show strain heterogeneity from the crack closure phase,and the strains in the later deformation phase are dominantly localized within the former high-strain zone.The Gini coefficient was used to quantify the degree of strain localization and shows an initial increase during the crack closure phase,a decrease during the linear elastic phase,and a subsequent increase during the post-yielding phase.This behavior corresponds to a process of initial localization from an imperfect boundary condition,homogenization,and eventual relocalization prior to the macroscopic failure of the sample.The transient strain rate decay during the stress relaxation phase was quantified using the p-value in the“Omori-like"power law function.A higher initial stress at the onset of relaxation results in a lower p-value,indicating a slower strain rate decay.As the sample approaches macroscopic failure,the lowest p-value shifts from the most damaged zone to adjacent areas,suggesting stress redistribution or crack propagation in deformed crystalline rocks under stress relaxation conditions.

We find that the precision and resolution of the atom localization depends on the probe field detuning significantly. And because of the effect of the microwave field, an atom can be located at a particular position via adjusting the system parameters.
文摘A scheme is used to explore the behavior of three-dimensional(3D)atom localization in a Y-type hot atomic system.We can obtain the position information of the atom due to the position-dependent atom–field interaction.We study the influences of the system parameters and the temperature on the atom localization.More interestingly,the atom can be localized in a subspace when the temperature is equal to 323 K.Moreover,a method is proposed to tune multiparameter for localizing the atom in a subspace.The result is helpful to achieve atom nanolithography,photonic crystal and measure the center-of-mass wave function of moving atoms.

文摘Herein,we propose a scheme for the realization of two-dimensional atomic localization in aλ-type three-level atomic medium such that the atom interacts with the two orthogonal standing-wave fields and a probe field.Because of the spatially dependent atom-field interaction,the information about the position of the atom can be obtained by monitoring the probe transmission spectra of the weak probe field for the first time.A single and double sharp localized peaks are observed in the one-wavelength domain.We have theoretically archived high-resolution and high-precision atomic localization within a region smaller thanλ/25×λ/25.The results may have potential applications in the field of nano-lithography and advance laser cooling technology.
文摘The proposed hybrid optimization algorithm integrates particle swarm optimizatio(PSO)with Ant Colony Optimization(ACO)to improve a number of pitfalls within PSO methods traditionally considered and/or applied to industrial robots.Particle Swarm Optimization may frequently suffer from local optima and inaccuracies in identifying the geometric parameters,which are necessary for applications requiring high-accuracy performances.The proposed approach integrates pheromone-based learning of ACO with the D-H method of developing an error model;hence,the global search effectiveness together with the convergence accuracy is further improved.Comparison studies of the hybrid PSO-ACO algorithm show higher precision and effectiveness in the optimization of geometric error parameters compared to the traditional methods.This is a remarkable reduction of localization errors,thus yielding accuracy and reliability in industrial robotic systems,as the results show.This approach improves performance in those applications that demand high geometric calibration by reducing the geometric error.The paper provides an overview of input for developing robotics and automation,giving importance to precision in industrial engineering.The proposed hybrid methodology is a good way to enhance the working accuracy and effectiveness of industrial robots and shall enable their wide application to complex tasks that require a high degree of accuracy.

文摘Spectrum-based fault localization (SBFL) generates a ranked list of suspicious elements by using the program execution spectrum, but the excessive number of elements ranked in parallel results in low localization accuracy. Most researchers consider intra-class dependencies to improve localization accuracy. However, some studies show that inter-class method call type faults account for more than 20%, which means such methods still have certain limitations. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a two-phase software fault localization based on relational graph convolutional neural networks (Two-RGCNFL). Firstly, in Phase 1, the method call dependence graph (MCDG) of the program is constructed, the intra-class and inter-class dependencies in MCDG are extracted by using the relational graph convolutional neural network, and the classifier is used to identify the faulty methods. Then, the GraphSMOTE algorithm is improved to alleviate the impact of class imbalance on classification accuracy. Aiming at the problem of parallel ranking of element suspicious values in traditional SBFL technology, in Phase 2, Doc2Vec is used to learn static features, while spectrum information serves as dynamic features. A RankNet model based on siamese multi-layer perceptron is constructed to score and rank statements in the faulty method. This work conducts experiments on 5 real projects of Defects4J benchmark. Experimental results show that, compared with the traditional SBFL technique and two baseline methods, our approach improves the Top-1 accuracy by 262.86%, 29.59% and 53.01%, respectively, which verifies the effectiveness of Two-RGCNFL. Furthermore, this work verifies the importance of inter-class dependencies through ablation experiments.

文摘Ecological monitoring vehicles are equipped with a range of sensors and monitoring devices designed to gather data on ecological and environmental factors.These vehicles are crucial in various fields,including environmental science research,ecological and environmental monitoring projects,disaster response,and emergency management.A key method employed in these vehicles for achieving high-precision positioning is LiDAR(lightlaser detection and ranging)-Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping(SLAM).However,maintaining highprecision localization in complex scenarios,such as degraded environments or when dynamic objects are present,remains a significant challenge.To address this issue,we integrate both semantic and texture information from LiDAR and cameras to enhance the robustness and efficiency of data registration.Specifically,semantic information simplifies the modeling of scene elements,reducing the reliance on dense point clouds,which can be less efficient.Meanwhile,visual texture information complements LiDAR-Visual localization by providing additional contextual details.By incorporating semantic and texture details frompaired images and point clouds,we significantly improve the quality of data association,thereby increasing the success rate of localization.This approach not only enhances the operational capabilities of ecological monitoring vehicles in complex environments but also contributes to improving the overall efficiency and effectiveness of ecological monitoring and environmental protection efforts.

文摘This work presents a method for the three-dimensional localization of individual shallow NV center in diamond,leveraging the near-field quenching effect of a gold tip.Our experimental setup involves the use of an atomic force microscope to precisely move the gold tip close to the NV center,while simultaneously employing a home-made confocal microscope to monitor the fluorescence of the NV center.This approach allows for lateral super-resolution,achieving a full width at half maximum(FWHM)of 38.0 nm and a location uncertainty of 0.7 nm.Additionally,we show the potential of this method for determining the depth of the NV centers.We also attempt to determine the depth of the NV centers in combination with finite-difference time-domain(FDTD)simulations.Compared to other depth determination methods,this approach allows for simultaneous lateral and longitudinal localization of individual NV centers,and holds promise for facilitating manipulation of the local environment surrounding the NV center.

文摘Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast(ADS-B)technology,with its open signal sharing,faces substantial security risks from false signals and spoofing attacks when broadcasting Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)information.This paper proposes a security position verification technique based on Multilateration(MLAT)to detect false signals,ensuring UAV safety and reliable airspace operations.First,the proposed method estimates the current position of the UAV by calculating the Time Difference of Arrival(TDOA),Time Sum of Arrival(TSOA),and Angle of Arrival(AOA)information.Then,this estimated position is compared with the ADS-B message to eliminate false UAV signals.Furthermore,a localization model based on TDOA/TSOA/AOA is established by utilizing reliable reference sources for base station time synchronization.Additionally,an improved Chan-Taylor algorithm is developed,incorporating the Constrained Weighted Least Squares(CWLS)method to initialize UAV position calculations.Finally,a false signal detection method is proposed to distinguish between true and false positioning targets.Numerical simulation results indicate that,at a positioning error threshold of 150 m,the improved Chan-Taylor algorithm based on TDOA/TSOA/AOA achieves 100%accuracy coverage,significantly enhancing localization precision.And the proposed false signal detection method achieves a detection accuracy rate of at least 90%within a 50-meter error range.
