文摘Iced transmission line galloping poses a significant threat to the safety and reliability of power systems,leading directly to line tripping,disconnections,and power outages.Existing early warning methods of iced transmission line galloping suffer from issues such as reliance on a single data source,neglect of irregular time series,and lack of attention-based closed-loop feedback,resulting in high rates of missed and false alarms.To address these challenges,we propose an Internet of Things(IoT)empowered early warning method of transmission line galloping that integrates time series data from optical fiber sensing and weather forecast.Initially,the method applies a primary adaptive weighted fusion to the IoT empowered optical fiber real-time sensing data and weather forecast data,followed by a secondary fusion based on a Back Propagation(BP)neural network,and uses the K-medoids algorithm for clustering the fused data.Furthermore,an adaptive irregular time series perception adjustment module is introduced into the traditional Gated Recurrent Unit(GRU)network,and closed-loop feedback based on attentionmechanism is employed to update network parameters through gradient feedback of the loss function,enabling closed-loop training and time series data prediction of the GRU network model.Subsequently,considering various types of prediction data and the duration of icing,an iced transmission line galloping risk coefficient is established,and warnings are categorized based on this coefficient.Finally,using an IoT-driven realistic dataset of iced transmission line galloping,the effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through multi-dimensional simulation scenarios.
文摘When employing penetration ammunition to strike multi-story buildings,the detection methods using acceleration sensors suffer from signal aliasing,while magnetic detection methods are susceptible to interference from ferromagnetic materials,thereby posing challenges in accurately determining the number of layers.To address this issue,this research proposes a layer counting method for penetration fuze that incorporates multi-source information fusion,utilizing both the temporal convolutional network(TCN)and the long short-term memory(LSTM)recurrent network.By leveraging the strengths of these two network structures,the method extracts temporal and high-dimensional features from the multi-source physical field during the penetration process,establishing a relationship between the multi-source physical field and the distance between the fuze and the target plate.A simulation model is developed to simulate the overload and magnetic field of a projectile penetrating multiple layers of target plates,capturing the multi-source physical field signals and their patterns during the penetration process.The analysis reveals that the proposed multi-source fusion layer counting method reduces errors by 60% and 50% compared to single overload layer counting and single magnetic anomaly signal layer counting,respectively.The model's predictive performance is evaluated under various operating conditions,including different ratios of added noise to random sample positions,penetration speeds,and spacing between target plates.The maximum errors in fuze penetration time predicted by the three modes are 0.08 ms,0.12 ms,and 0.16 ms,respectively,confirming the robustness of the proposed model.Moreover,the model's predictions indicate that the fitting degree for large interlayer spacings is superior to that for small interlayer spacings due to the influence of stress waves.

文摘Dempster-Shafer evidence theory is broadly employed in the research of multi-source information fusion.Nevertheless,when fusing highly conflicting evidence it may pro-duce counterintuitive outcomes.To address this issue,a fusion approach based on a newly defined belief exponential diver-gence and Deng entropy is proposed.First,a belief exponential divergence is proposed as the conflict measurement between evidences.Then,the credibility of each evidence is calculated.Afterwards,the Deng entropy is used to calculate information volume to determine the uncertainty of evidence.Then,the weight of evidence is calculated by integrating the credibility and uncertainty of each evidence.Ultimately,initial evidences are amended and fused using Dempster’s rule of combination.The effectiveness of this approach in addressing the fusion of three typical conflict paradoxes is demonstrated by arithmetic exam-ples.Additionally,the proposed approach is applied to aerial tar-get recognition and iris dataset-based classification to validate its efficacy.Results indicate that the proposed approach can enhance the accuracy of target recognition and effectively address the issue of fusing conflicting evidences.

文摘Source identification and deformation analysis of disaster bodies are the main contents of high-steep slope risk assessment,the establishment of high-precision model and the quantification of the fine geometric features of the slope are the prerequisites for the above work.In this study,based on the UAV remote sensing technology in acquiring refined model and quantitative parameters,a semi-automatic dangerous rock identification method based on multi-source data is proposed.In terms of the periodicity UAV-based deformation monitoring,the monitoring accuracy is defined according to the relative accuracy of multi-temporal point cloud.Taking a high-steep slope as research object,the UAV equipped with special sensors was used to obtain multi-source and multitemporal data,including high-precision DOM and multi-temporal 3D point clouds.The geometric features of the outcrop were extracted and superimposed with DOM images to carry out semi-automatic identification of dangerous rock mass,realizes the closed-loop of identification and accuracy verification;changing detection of multi-temporal 3D point clouds was conducted to capture deformation of slope with centimeter accuracy.The results show that the multi-source data-based semiautomatic dangerous rock identification method can complement each other to improve the efficiency and accuracy of identification,and the UAV-based multi-temporal monitoring can reveal the near real-time deformation state of slopes.

文摘In recent years,convolutional neural networks(CNN)and Transformer architectures have made significant progress in the field of remote sensing(RS)change detection(CD).Most of the existing methods directly stack multiple layers of Transformer blocks,which achieves considerable improvement in capturing variations,but at a rather high computational cost.We propose a channel-Efficient Change Detection Network(CE-CDNet)to address the problems of high computational cost and imbalanced detection accuracy in remote sensing building change detection.The adaptive multi-scale feature fusion module(CAMSF)and lightweight Transformer decoder(LTD)are introduced to improve the change detection effect.The CAMSF module can adaptively fuse multi-scale features to improve the model’s ability to detect building changes in complex scenes.In addition,the LTD module reduces computational costs and maintains high detection accuracy through an optimized self-attention mechanism and dimensionality reduction operation.Experimental test results on three commonly used remote sensing building change detection data sets show that CE-CDNet can reduce a certain amount of computational overhead while maintaining detection accuracy comparable to existing mainstream models,showing good performance advantages.

文摘Mudflat vegetation plays a crucial role in the ecological function of wetland environment,and obtaining its fine spatial distri-bution is of great significance for wetland protection and management.Remote sensing techniques can realize the rapid extraction of wetland vegetation over a large area.However,the imaging of optical sensors is easily restricted by weather conditions,and the backs-cattered information reflected by Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR)images is easily disturbed by many factors.Although both data sources have been applied in wetland vegetation classification,there is a lack of comparative study on how the selection of data sources affects the classification effect.This study takes the vegetation of the tidal flat wetland in Chongming Island,Shanghai,China,in 2019,as the research subject.A total of 22 optical feature parameters and 11 SAR feature parameters were extracted from the optical data source(Sentinel-2)and SAR data source(Sentinel-1),respectively.The performance of optical and SAR data and their feature paramet-ers in wetland vegetation classification was quantitatively compared and analyzed by different feature combinations.Furthermore,by simulating the scenario of missing optical images,the impact of optical image missing on vegetation classification accuracy and the compensatory effect of integrating SAR data were revealed.Results show that:1)under the same classification algorithm,the Overall Accuracy(OA)of the combined use of optical and SAR images was the highest,reaching 95.50%.The OA of using only optical images was slightly lower,while using only SAR images yields the lowest accuracy,but still achieved 86.48%.2)Compared to using the spec-tral reflectance of optical data and the backscattering coefficient of SAR data directly,the constructed optical and SAR feature paramet-ers contributed to improving classification accuracy.The inclusion of optical(vegetation index,spatial texture,and phenology features)and SAR feature parameters(SAR index and SAR texture features)in the classification algorithm resulted in an OA improvement of 4.56%and 9.47%,respectively.SAR backscatter,SAR index,optical phenological features,and vegetation index were identified as the top-ranking important features.3)When the optical data were missing continuously for six months,the OA dropped to a minimum of 41.56%.However,when combined with SAR data,the OA could be improved to 71.62%.This indicates that the incorporation of SAR features can effectively compensate for the loss of accuracy caused by optical image missing,especially in regions with long-term cloud cover.

文摘The convolutional neural network(CNN)method based on DeepLabv3+has some problems in the semantic segmentation task of high-resolution remote sensing images,such as fixed receiving field size of feature extraction,lack of semantic information,high decoder magnification,and insufficient detail retention ability.A hierarchical feature fusion network(HFFNet)was proposed.Firstly,a combination of transformer and CNN architectures was employed for feature extraction from images of varying resolutions.The extracted features were processed independently.Subsequently,the features from the transformer and CNN were fused under the guidance of features from different sources.This fusion process assisted in restoring information more comprehensively during the decoding stage.Furthermore,a spatial channel attention module was designed in the final stage of decoding to refine features and reduce the semantic gap between shallow CNN features and deep decoder features.The experimental results showed that HFFNet had superior performance on UAVid,LoveDA,Potsdam,and Vaihingen datasets,and its cross-linking index was better than DeepLabv3+and other competing methods,showing strong generalization ability.

文摘The degradation of optical remote sensing images due to atmospheric haze poses a significant obstacle,profoundly impeding their effective utilization across various domains.Dehazing methodologies have emerged as pivotal components of image preprocessing,fostering an improvement in the quality of remote sensing imagery.This enhancement renders remote sensing data more indispensable,thereby enhancing the accuracy of target iden-tification.Conventional defogging techniques based on simplistic atmospheric degradation models have proven inadequate for mitigating non-uniform haze within remotely sensed images.In response to this challenge,a novel UNet Residual Attention Network(URA-Net)is proposed.This paradigmatic approach materializes as an end-to-end convolutional neural network distinguished by its utilization of multi-scale dense feature fusion clusters and gated jump connections.The essence of our methodology lies in local feature fusion within dense residual clusters,enabling the extraction of pertinent features from both preceding and current local data,depending on contextual demands.The intelligently orchestrated gated structures facilitate the propagation of these features to the decoder,resulting in superior outcomes in haze removal.Empirical validation through a plethora of experiments substantiates the efficacy of URA-Net,demonstrating its superior performance compared to existing methods when applied to established datasets for remote sensing image defogging.On the RICE-1 dataset,URA-Net achieves a Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio(PSNR)of 29.07 dB,surpassing the Dark Channel Prior(DCP)by 11.17 dB,the All-in-One Network for Dehazing(AOD)by 7.82 dB,the Optimal Transmission Map and Adaptive Atmospheric Light For Dehazing(OTM-AAL)by 5.37 dB,the Unsupervised Single Image Dehazing(USID)by 8.0 dB,and the Superpixel-based Remote Sensing Image Dehazing(SRD)by 8.5 dB.Particularly noteworthy,on the SateHaze1k dataset,URA-Net attains preeminence in overall performance,yielding defogged images characterized by consistent visual quality.This underscores the contribution of the research to the advancement of remote sensing technology,providing a robust and efficient solution for alleviating the adverse effects of haze on image quality.

文摘The salinity of the salt lake is an important factor to evaluate whether it contains some mineral resources or not,the fault buried in the salt lake could control the abundance of the salinity.Therefore,it is of great geological importance to identify the fault buried in the salt lake.Taking the Gasikule Salt Lake in China for example,the paper established a new method to identify the fault buried in the salt lake based on the multi-source remote sensing data including Landsat TM,SPOT-5 and ASTER data.It includes the acquisition and selection of the multi-source remote sensing data,data preprocessing,lake waterfront extraction,spectrum extraction of brine with different salinity,salinity index construction,salinity separation,analysis of the abnormal salinity and identification of the fault buried in salt lake,temperature inversion of brine and the fault verification.As a result,the study identified an important fault buried in the east of the Gasikule Salt Lake that controls the highest salinity abnormal.Because the level of the salinity is positively correlated to the mineral abundance,the result provides the important reference to identify the water body rich in mineral resources in the salt lake.

文摘The components of urban surface cover are diversified,and component temperature has greater physical significance and application values in the studies on urban thermal environment.Although the multi-angle retrieval algorithm of component temperature has been matured gradually,its application in the studies on urban thermal environment is restricted due to the difficulty in acquiring urban-scale multi-angle thermal infrared data.Therefore,based on the existing multi-source multi-band remote sensing data,access to appropriate urban-scale component temperature is an urgent issue to be solved in current studies on urban thermal infrared remote sensing.Then,a retrieval algorithm of urban component temperature by multi-source multi-band remote sensing data on the basis of MODIS and Landsat TM images was proposed with expectations achieved in this work,which was finally validated by the experiment on urban images of Changsha,China.The results show that：1） Mean temperatures of impervious surface components and vegetation components are the maximum and minimum,respectively,which are in accordance with the distribution laws of actual surface temperature; 2） High-accuracy retrieval results are obtained in vegetation component temperature.Moreover,through a contrast between retrieval results and measured data,it is found that the retrieval temperature of impervious surface component has the maximum deviation from measured temperature and its deviation is greater than 1 ℃,while the deviation in vegetation component temperature is relatively low at 0.5 ℃.
