These distances could range from kilometers to tens of kilometers, and even hundreds and thousands of kilometers. Therefore, it is crucial to develop effective long-range path planning for lunar rovers to meet the demands of lunar patrol exploration. This paper presents a hierarchical map model path planning method that utilizes the existing high-resolution images, digital elevation models and mineral abundance maps. The objective is to address the issue of the construction of lunar rover travel costs in the absence of large-scale, high-resolution digital elevation models. This method models the reference and semantic layers using the middle- and low-resolution remote sensing data. The multi-scale obstacles on the lunar surface are extracted by combining the deep learning algorithm on the high-resolution image, and the obstacle avoidance layer is modeled. A two-stage exploratory path planning decision is employed for long-distance driving path planning on a global–local scale. The proposed method analyzes the long-distance accessibility of various areas of scientific significance, such as Rima Bode. A high-precision digital elevation model is created using stereo images to validate the method. Based on the findings, it can be observed that the entire route spans a distance of 930.32 km. The route demonstrates an impressive ability to avoid meter-level impact craters and linear structures while maintaining an average slope of less than 8°. This paper explores scientific research by traversing at least seven basalt units, uncovering the secrets of lunar volcanic activities, and establishing ‘golden spike’ reference points for lunar stratigraphy. The final result of path planning can serve as a valuable reference for the design, mission demonstration, and subsequent project implementation of the new manned lunar rover.展开更多

文摘Direct comparison of the difference in biomass between live and sterilized soils may result in deviations in biological plant-soil feedback(B-PSF)due to changes induced by sterilization in bulk soil microorganisms,soil structure,and nutrient availability.The sterilization-induced deviation(sterilization-effect,SS_(c))to often-used method B-PSF_(ou) was corrected by adding a parallel experiment without conditioning by any plants(B-PSF_(c)).Plant-soil feedback experiments were conducted for two plants with contrasting in root traits and rhizosphere microbial community to test the reliability of the method(Kalidium foliatum and Reaumuria songaric).The specific root length(SRL),root tissue density(RTD)and of R.songarica was higher compared to that of K.foliatum,but the root diameter(RAD)of it was significantly lower than that of K.foliatum.The plasticity of root traits of K.foliatum was stronger than that of R.songarica.The B-PSF_(ou) of K.foliatum was four times negative than B-PSF_(c),whereas there was no statistically significant difference of B-PSF_(ou) and B-PSF_(c) for R.songarica.The correlation between B-PSF_(c) and the relative abundance of pathogens and EcMF was found to be stronger compared to B-PSF_(ou).We proposed method corrects the deviation in B-PSF.The variation of deviation between species may be related to root traits.

文摘We theoretically investigate a cooling scheme assisted by a quantum well(QW)and coherent feedback within a hybrid optomechanical system.Although the exciton mode in the QW and the mechanical resonator(MR)are initially uncoupled,their interaction via the microcavity field leads to an indirect exciton-mode–mechanical-mode coupling.The coherent feedback loop is applied by feeding back a fraction of the output field of the cavity through a controllable beam splitter to the cavity’s input mirror.It is shown that the cooling capability is enhanced by effectively suppressing the Stokes process through coupling with the QW.Furthermore,the effect of the anti-Stokes process is enhanced through the application of the coherent feedback loop.This particular system configuration enables cooling of the mechanical resonator even in the unresolved sideband regime(USR).This study has some important guiding significance in the field of quantum information processing.

文摘Accurate prediction of landslide displacement is crucial for effective early warning of landslide disasters.While most existing prediction methods focus on time-series forecasting for individual monitoring points,there is limited research on the spatiotemporal characteristics of landslide deformation.This paper proposes a novel Multi-Relation Spatiotemporal Graph Residual Network with Multi-Level Feature Attention(MFA-MRSTGRN)that effectively improves the prediction performance of landslide displacement through spatiotemporal fusion.This model integrates internal seepage factors as data feature enhancements with external triggering factors,allowing for accurate capture of the complex spatiotemporal characteristics of landslide displacement and the construction of a multi-source heterogeneous dataset.The MFA-MRSTGRN model incorporates dynamic graph theory and four key modules:multilevel feature attention,temporal-residual decomposition,spatial multi-relational graph convolution,and spatiotemporal fusion prediction.This comprehensive approach enables the efficient analyses of multi-source heterogeneous datasets,facilitating adaptive exploration of the evolving multi-relational,multi-dimensional spatiotemporal complexities in landslides.When applying this model to predict the displacement of the Liangshuijing landslide,we demonstrate that the MFA-MRSTGRN model surpasses traditional models,such as random forest(RF),long short-term memory(LSTM),and spatial temporal graph convolutional networks(ST-GCN)models in terms of various evaluation metrics including mean absolute error(MAE=1.27 mm),root mean square error(RMSE=1.49 mm),mean absolute percentage error(MAPE=0.026),and R-squared(R^(2)=0.88).Furthermore,feature ablation experiments indicate that incorporating internal seepage factors improves the predictive performance of landslide displacement models.This research provides an advanced and reliable method for landslide displacement prediction.

文摘As we look ahead to future lunar exploration missions, such as crewed lunar exploration and establishing lunar scientific research stations, the lunar rovers will need to cover vast distances. These distances could range from kilometers to tens of kilometers, and even hundreds and thousands of kilometers. Therefore, it is crucial to develop effective long-range path planning for lunar rovers to meet the demands of lunar patrol exploration. This paper presents a hierarchical map model path planning method that utilizes the existing high-resolution images, digital elevation models and mineral abundance maps. The objective is to address the issue of the construction of lunar rover travel costs in the absence of large-scale, high-resolution digital elevation models. This method models the reference and semantic layers using the middle- and low-resolution remote sensing data. The multi-scale obstacles on the lunar surface are extracted by combining the deep learning algorithm on the high-resolution image, and the obstacle avoidance layer is modeled. A two-stage exploratory path planning decision is employed for long-distance driving path planning on a global–local scale. The proposed method analyzes the long-distance accessibility of various areas of scientific significance, such as Rima Bode. A high-precision digital elevation model is created using stereo images to validate the method. Based on the findings, it can be observed that the entire route spans a distance of 930.32 km. The route demonstrates an impressive ability to avoid meter-level impact craters and linear structures while maintaining an average slope of less than 8°. This paper explores scientific research by traversing at least seven basalt units, uncovering the secrets of lunar volcanic activities, and establishing ‘golden spike’ reference points for lunar stratigraphy. The final result of path planning can serve as a valuable reference for the design, mission demonstration, and subsequent project implementation of the new manned lunar rover.

文摘Background Haptic feedback plays a crucial role in virtual reality(VR)interaction,helping to improve the precision of user operation and enhancing the immersion of the user experience.Instrumental haptic feedback in virtual environments is primarily realized using grounded force or vibration feedback devices.However,improvements are required in terms of the active space and feedback realism.Methods We propose a lightweight and flexible haptic feedback glove that can haptically render objects in VR environments via kinesthetic and vibration feedback,thereby enabling users to enjoy a rich virtual piano-playing experience.The kinesthetic feedback of the glove relies on a cable-pulling mechanism that rotates the mechanism and pulls the two cables connected to it,thereby changing the amount of force generated to simulate the hardness or softness of the object.Vibration feedback is provided by small vibration motors embedded in the bottom of the fingertips of the glove.We designed a piano-playing scenario in the virtual environment and conducted user tests.The evaluation metrics were clarity,realism,enjoyment,and satisfaction.Results A total of 14 subjects participated in the test,and the results showed that our proposed glove scored significantly higher on the four evaluation metrics than the nofeedback and vibration feedback methods.Conclusions Our proposed glove significantly enhances the user experience when interacting with virtual objects.

文摘Thyroid nodules,a common disorder in the endocrine system,require accurate segmentation in ultrasound images for effective diagnosis and treatment.However,achieving precise segmentation remains a challenge due to various factors,including scattering noise,low contrast,and limited resolution in ultrasound images.Although existing segmentation models have made progress,they still suffer from several limitations,such as high error rates,low generalizability,overfitting,limited feature learning capability,etc.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a Multi-level Relation Transformer-based U-Net(MLRT-UNet)to improve thyroid nodule segmentation.The MLRTUNet leverages a novel Relation Transformer,which processes images at multiple scales,overcoming the limitations of traditional encoding methods.This transformer integrates both local and global features effectively through selfattention and cross-attention units,capturing intricate relationships within the data.The approach also introduces a Co-operative Transformer Fusion(CTF)module to combine multi-scale features from different encoding layers,enhancing the model’s ability to capture complex patterns in the data.Furthermore,the Relation Transformer block enhances long-distance dependencies during the decoding process,improving segmentation accuracy.Experimental results showthat the MLRT-UNet achieves high segmentation accuracy,reaching 98.2% on the Digital Database Thyroid Image(DDT)dataset,97.8% on the Thyroid Nodule 3493(TG3K)dataset,and 98.2% on the Thyroid Nodule3K(TN3K)dataset.These findings demonstrate that the proposed method significantly enhances the accuracy of thyroid nodule segmentation,addressing the limitations of existing models.

文摘Deep learning networks are increasingly exploited in the field of neuronal soma segmentation.However,annotating dataset is also an expensive and time-consuming task.Unsupervised domain adaptation is an effective method to mitigate the problem,which is able to learn an adaptive segmentation model by transferring knowledge from a rich-labeled source domain.In this paper,we propose a multi-level distribution alignment-based unsupervised domain adaptation network(MDA-Net)for segmentation of 3D neuronal soma images.Distribution alignment is performed in both feature space and output space.In the feature space,features from different scales are adaptively fused to enhance the feature extraction capability for small target somata and con-strained to be domain invariant by adversarial adaptation strategy.In the output space,local discrepancy maps that can reveal the spatial structures of somata are constructed on the predicted segmentation results.Then thedistribution alignment is performed on the local discrepancies maps across domains to obtain a superior discrepancy map in the target domain,achieving refined segmentation performance of neuronal somata.Additionally,after a period of distribution align-ment procedure,a portion of target samples with high confident pseudo-labels are selected as training data,which assist in learning a more adaptive segmentation network.We verified the superiority of the proposed algorithm by comparing several domain adaptation networks on two 3D mouse brain neuronal somata datasets and one macaque brain neuronal soma dataset.

文摘Channel state information(CSI)is essen-tial to unlock the potential of reconfigurable intelli-gent surfaces(RISs)in wireless communication sys-tems.Since massive RIS elements are typically imple-mented without baseband signal processing capabili-ties,limited CSI feedback is necessary when design-ing the reflection/refraction coefficients of the RIS.In this article,the unique RIS-assisted channel features,such as the RIS position-dependent channel fluctua-tion,the ultra-high dimensional sub-channel matrix,and the structured sparsity,are distilled from recent advances in limited feedback and used as guidelines for designing feedback schemes.We begin by il-lustrating the use cases and the corresponding chal-lenges associated with RIS feedback.We then discuss how to leverage techniques such as channel customiza-tion,structured-sparsity,autoencoders,and others to reduce feedback overhead and complexity when de-vising feedback schemes.Finally,we identify poten-tial research directions by considering the unresolved challenges,the new RIS architecture,and the integra-tion with multi-modal information and artificial intel-ligence.

文摘This study investigates the nonlinear resonance responses of suspended cables subjected to multi-frequency excitations and time-delayed feedback.Two specific combinations and simultaneous resonances are selected for detailed examination.Initially,utilizing Hamilton’s variational principle,a nonlinear vibration control model of suspended cables under multi-frequency excitations and longitudinal time-delayed velocity feedback is developed,and the Galerkin method is employed to obtain the discrete model.Subsequently,focusing solely on single-mode discretization,analytical solutions for the two simultaneous resonances are derived using the method of multiple scales.The frequency response equations are derived,and the stability analysis is presented for two simultaneous resonance cases.The results demonstrate that suspended cables exhibit complex nonlinearity under multi-frequency excitations.Multiple solutions under multi-frequency excitation can be distinguished through the frequency–response and the detuning-phase curves.By adjusting the control gain and time delay,the resonance range,response amplitude,and phase of suspended cables can be modified.

文摘This study investigates the impact of vegetation-climate feedback on the global land monsoon system during the Last Interglacial(LIG,127000 years BP)and the mid-Holocene(MH,6000 years BP)using the earth system model EC-Earth3.Our findings indicate that vegetation changes significantly influence the global monsoon area and precipitation patterns,especially in the North African and Indian monsoon regions.The North African monsoon region experienced the most substantial increase in vegetation during both the LIG and MH,resulting in significant increases in monsoonal precipitation by 9.8%and 6.0%,respectively.The vegetation feedback also intensified the Saharan Heat Low,strengthened monsoonal flows,and enhanced precipitation over the North African monsoon region.In contrast,the Indian monsoon region exhibited divergent responses to vegetation changes.During the LIG,precipitation in the Indian monsoon region decreased by 2.2%,while it increased by 1.6%during the MH.These differences highlight the complex and region-specific impacts of vegetation feedback on monsoon systems.Overall,this study demonstrates that vegetation feedback exerts distinct influences on the global monsoon during the MH and LIG.These findings highlight the importance of considering vegetation-climate feedback in understanding past monsoon variability and in predicting future climate change impacts on monsoon systems.
文摘Purpose–This study aims to propose a novel identification method to accurately estimate linear and nonlinear dynamics in permanent magnet synchronous linear motor(PMSLM)based on the time-domain analysis of relay feedback.Design/methodology/approach–A mathematical model of the PMSLM-based servo-mechanical system was first established,incorporating the aforementioned nonlinearities.The model’s velocity response was derived by analyzing its behavior as a first-order system under arbitrary input.To induce oscillatory dynamics,an ideal relay with artificially introduced dead-time components was then integrated into the servo-mechanism.Depending on the oscillations and the time-domain analysis,nonlinear formulas were deduced according to the velocity response of the servo-mechanism.Afterwards,the unknown model parameters can be solved on account of the cost function which utilizes the discrepancy between nominal position characteristics and temporary position characteristics,both of which are extracted from the oscillations.The proposed recognition method was validated through a twostage process:(1)numerical simulation and calculation,followed by(2)real-time experimental verification on a direct-drive servo platform.Subsequently,leveraging the identification results,a novel control strategy was developed and its tracking performance was benchmarked against conventional control schemes.Findings–Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves estimation accuracy within 8%.Building on this,a novel control strategy is developed by incorporating both friction pulsation and force pulsation identification results into the feedforward compensator.Comparative experiments reveal that this strategy significantly enhances tracking and positioning performance over traditional control schemes.In a word,this new identification method can be used in different process control and servo control systems.Moreover,parameter auto-tuning,feed forward compensation or disturbance observer can be investigated based on the obtained information to improve the system stability and control accuracy.Originality/value–It is of great significance for the performance improvement of rail transit motor control equipment,such as electro-mechanical braking systems.By enhancing the efficiency of motor control,the performance of the product will be more outstanding.
