The former researches have confirmed that the cells groupings time-shift pilots scheme is effective to reduce inter-cell interference, especially pilot contamination, which results from the pilot reuse in adjacent cells. However, they have not specified reasonable cells groupings factor, which plays a critical role in the general performance of the LSAS. Therefore, this problem is researched in details. The time for reverse-link data transmission will be compressed, when the groupings factor surpasses a certain range. Thus it is not always beneficial to increase the cells groupings factor without limitation. Furthermore,a reasonable cells groupings factor is deduced from the perspective of optimization to enhance the system performance. Simulations verify the proposed cell grouping factor.展开更多

It consists of the preferred steps of reacting all-trans retinoic acid with thionyl chloride to form retinoyl chloride and then reacting with triethylamine to generate retinoyl ammonium salt which in turn is reacted with p-aminophenol to eventually produce 4-HPR. This process can overcome many scale-up challenges that exist in the methods reported in the literature and provide an easy, mild and high yield route for large scale synthesis of 4-HPR. Moreover, the effects of the molar ratios of the reagents on the yield are examined. The best molar ratios are a 2.0 molar equivalence of thionyl chloride and a 3.0 molar equivalence of paminophenol to retinoic acid, and the total yield is 80. 7%.展开更多

However, we want to cluster large scale data where the similarities are not sparse in many cases. This paper presents two variants of AP for grouping large scale data with a dense similarity matrix. The local approach is partition affinity propagation (PAP) and the global method is landmark affinity propagation (LAP). PAP passes messages in the subsets of data first and then merges them as the number of initial step of iterations; it can effectively reduce the number of iterations of clustering. LAP passes messages between the landmark data points first and then clusters non-landmark data points; it is a large global approximation method to speed up clustering. Experiments are conducted on many datasets, such as random data points, manifold subspaces, images of faces and Chinese calligraphy, and the results demonstrate that the two ap-proaches are feasible and practicable.展开更多

The EOFs have shown that whereas the rainfall over India varies as one coherent zone, that over China varies in east-west oriented bands. The influence of this banded structure extends well into India.Relationship of rainfall with large scale parameters such as the subtropical ridge over the Indian and the western Pacific regions, Southern Oscillation, the Northern Hemispheric surface air temperature and stratospheric winds have also been investigated. These results show that the rainfall over the area around 40°N, 110°E over China is highly related with rainfall over India. The subtropical ridge over the Indian region is an important predictor over India as well an over the northern China region. '展开更多

Following the less flexibility first (LFF) principle,we simulate a manual packing process in which the concept of placement by stages is introduced to reduce the overall evaluation complexity. The complexity of the proposed algorithm is (N1 + N2 ) × O( n^2 ) + N3× O(n^4lgn) ,where N1, N2 ,and N3 denote the number of modules in each stage, N1 + N2 + N3 = n, and N3〈〈 n. This complexity is much less than the original time complexity of O(n^5lgn). Experimental results indicate that this approach is quite promising.展开更多

This complexity is much less than the original time complexity of O(n^5lgn). Experimental results indicate that this approach is quite promising.
