First, a phenological window, PBW was drawn from time-series MODIS data. Next, feature extraction was performed for the PBW to reduce feature dimension and enhance its information. Finally, a regression model was built to model the relationship of the phenological feature and the sample data. The amount of information of the PBW was evaluated and compared with that of the main peak (MP). The relative precision of the mapping reached up to 92% in comparison to the Landsat sample data, and ranged between 87 and 96% in comparison to the statistical data. These results were sufficient to satisfy the accuracy requirements for winter wheat mapping at a large scale. Moreover, the proposed method has the ability to obtain the distribution information for winter wheat in an earlier period than previous studies. This study could throw light on the monitoring of winter wheat in China by using unique phenological feature of winter wheat.展开更多

Monitoring their spatio-temporal changes plays an important role in controlling and preventing the effects of coal fires, and their environmental impact. In this study, the spatio-temporal changes of underground coal fires in Khanh Hoa coal field(North-East of Viet Nam) were analyzed using Landsat time-series data during the 2008-2016 period. Based on land surface temperatures retrieved from Landsat thermal data, underground coal fires related to thermal anomalies were identified using the MEDIAN+1.5×IQR(IQR: Interquartile range) threshold technique. The locations of underground coal fires were validated using a coal fire map produced by the field survey data and cross-validated using the daytime ASTER thermal infrared imagery. Based on the fires extracted from seven Landsat thermal imageries, the spatiotemporal changes of underground coal fire areas were analyzed. The results showed that the thermalanomalous zones have been correlated with known coal fires. Cross-validation of coal fires using ASTER TIR data showed a high consistency of 79.3%. The largest coal fire area of 184.6 hectares was detected in 2010, followed by 2014(181.1 hectares) and 2016(178.5 hectares). The smaller coal fire areas were extracted with areas of 133.6 and 152.5 hectares in 2011 and 2009 respectively. Underground coal fires were mainly detected in the northern and southern part, and tend to spread to north-west of the coal field.展开更多

The Savitzky-Golay filtering algorithm was applied to perform a filtration processing for MODIS-NDVI time-series data. The processed time-series curves can reflect a real variation trend of vegetation growth. The NDVI time-series curves of coniferous forest, high-cold meadow, high-cold meadow steppe and high-cold steppe all appear a mono-peak model during vegetation growth with the maximum peak occurring in August. A decision-tree classification model was established according to either NDVI time-series data or land surface temperature data. And then, both classifying and processing for vegetations were carried out through the model based on NDVI time-series curves. An accuracy test illustrates that classification results are of high accuracy and credibility and the model is conducive for studying a climate variation and estimating a vegetation production at regional even global scale.展开更多

These technologies entertain, facilitate and make the day easier for the human being. It is not arguable anymore that the people need these technologies with the smart systems to lead their regular life smoothly. The smarter the system is;the more people like to use it. One major part of this smartness of the system depends on how well the system can interact with the person or the user. It is not a dream anymore that a system will be able to interact with a human just the way that one human interacts with another. To make that happen, it is obvious that the system must be intelligent enough to understand a human being. For example, if we need a Robot that can have a random conversation with a human, the system must recognize and understand the spoken word to reply the human. And the reply will be based on the current mood and behavior of the human. In this scenario, a human uses his senses to receive the inputs such as voice through the hearing senses, behavior and movement of the body parts, and facial expression through seeing sense from the speaking human. And it is now apparently possible to take such inputs for a system which can be stored as data;later it is possible to analyze the data using various algorithms and also to teach the system through Machine Learning algorithms. We will briefly discuss issues related to the relevance and the possible impact of research in the field of Artificial Intelligence, with special attention to the Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, Natural Language Processing, Human Computer Interaction, Data Warehouse and Data Mining that is used to identify and analyze data like psychological signals, voice, conversation, geo location, and geo weather, etc. In our research, we have used heart rate that is a successful physiological signal to detect human mood and used smartphone usage data to train the system and detect mood more accurately than other methods.展开更多

Winter rape is an important oil crop, which plays an important role in the cooking oil market of China. The Jianghan Plain and Dongting Lake Plain (JPDLP) are major agricultural production areas in China. Essential changes in winter rape distribution have taken place in this area during the 21st century. However, the pattern of these changes remains unknown. In this study, the spatial and temporal dynamics of winter rape from 2000 to 2017 on the JPDLP were analyzed. An artificial neural network (ANN)-based classification method was proposed to map fractional winter rape distribution by fusing moderate resolution imaging spectrometer (MODIS) data and high-resolution imagery. The results are as follows:(1) The total winter rape acreages on the JPDLP dropped significantly, especially on the Jianghan Plain with a decline of about 45% during 2000 and 2017.(2) The winter rape abundance keeps changing with about 20–30% croplands changing their abundance drastically in every two consecutive observation years.(3) The winter rape has obvious regional differentiation for the trend of its change at the county level, and the decreasing trend was observed more strongly in the traditionally dominant agricultural counties.展开更多

The topography of the lake bottom has changed rapidly because of the intense exchange of water and sediment between the lake and the Changjiang River. However, time series information on lake-bottom topographic change is lacking. In this study, we introduced a method that combines remote sensing data and in situ water level data to extract a record of Dongting Lake bottom topography from 2003 to 2011. Multi-temporal lake land/water boundaries were extracted from MODIS images using the linear spectral mixture model method. The elevation of water/land boundary points were calculated using water level data and spatial interpolation techniques. Digital elevation models of Dongting Lake bottom topography in different periods were then constructed with the multiple heighted waterlines. The mean root-mean-square error of the linear spectral mixture model was 0.036, and the mean predicted error for elevation interpolation was-0.19 m. Compared with fi eld measurement data and sediment load data, the method has proven to be most applicable. The results show that the topography of the bottom of Dongting Lake has exhibited uneven erosion and deposition in terms of time and space over the last nine years. Moreover, lake-bottom topography has undergone a slight erosion trend within this period, with 58.2% and 41.8% of the lake-bottom area being eroded and deposited, respectively.展开更多

The Savitzky-Golay filtering algorithm was applied to perform a filtration processing for MODIS-NDVI time-series data. The processed time-series curves can reflect a real variation trend of vegetation growth.

A decision-tree classification model was established according to either NDVI time-series data or land surface temperature data. And then, both classifying and processing for vegetations were carried out through the model based on NDVI time-series curves. An accuracy test illustrates that classification results are of high accuracy and credibility and the model is conducive for studying a climate variation and estimating a vegetation production at regional even global scale.

文摘The seed industry is a core strategic sector for national food security.Due to high R&D investment,long operating cycles,and dual impacts from natural and market factors,listed seed companies exhibit distinct financial risk characteristics with temporal dynamics.This study takes 6 leading A-share listed seed companies as research samples,using time-series financial data from authoritative databases such as CSMAR and Wind covering Q12016 to Q32024.Integrating enterprise risk management(ERM)theory and anomaly detection theory,a financial risk evaluation index system is constructed,encompassing 6 dimensions:solvency,profitability,operational capacity,growth potential,cash flow capacity,and seed industry-specific indicators.After dimension reduction via factor analysis,three predictive models,logistic regression(LR),XGBoost,and LSTM time-series model,are established for empirical research on financial risk prediction,with their performance compared.The results show that the LSTM model achieves the optimal fit for time-series financial data of listed seed companies,with a test set AUC value of 0.889,significantly outperforming the traditional LR model(0.758)and XGBoost model(0.821).Incorporating industry-specific indicators such as R&D investment ratio and seed production cost rate improves the model’s prediction accuracy by 11.8%,verifying the importance of industry-specific indicators for risk prediction.Based on empirical findings,optimization strategies for financial risk control of listed seed companies are proposed from enterprise,industry,and regulatory perspectives,providing empirical reference and practical pathways for constructing intelligent financial risk early warning systems in the seed industry.
文摘All previous methods identify cycles in COVID-19 daily and weekly data based on a subjective interpretation of the results.This poses difficulties for researchers interested in conducting comprehensive studies to investigate the presence of cycles in country/territory/area(CTA).Hence,we propose an algorithm that automatically detects the fundamental period T_(0)and its harmonics.Based on previous literature,we used T_(0)=7 days for daily data and T_(0)=52 weeks for weekly data.The new algorithm was applied to the time series from 236 CTAs collected by the WHO.The detection results are reported by considering the WHO region to which the CTA belongs or the latitudinal position of the CTA capital.Our results confirm the findings of other researchers in WHO and latitudebased groups.Concurrently,the results provide new information about CTAs for which COVID-19 time-series data have not been carefully examined.

文摘Mapping crop distribution with remote sensing data is of great importance for agricultural production, food security and agricultural sustainability. Winter rape is an important oil crop, which plays an important role in the cooking oil market of China. The Jianghan Plain and Dongting Lake Plain (JPDLP) are major agricultural production areas in China. Essential changes in winter rape distribution have taken place in this area during the 21st century. However, the pattern of these changes remains unknown. In this study, the spatial and temporal dynamics of winter rape from 2000 to 2017 on the JPDLP were analyzed. An artificial neural network (ANN)-based classification method was proposed to map fractional winter rape distribution by fusing moderate resolution imaging spectrometer (MODIS) data and high-resolution imagery. The results are as follows:(1) The total winter rape acreages on the JPDLP dropped significantly, especially on the Jianghan Plain with a decline of about 45% during 2000 and 2017.(2) The winter rape abundance keeps changing with about 20–30% croplands changing their abundance drastically in every two consecutive observation years.(3) The winter rape has obvious regional differentiation for the trend of its change at the county level, and the decreasing trend was observed more strongly in the traditionally dominant agricultural counties.

文摘In recent years, sedimentation conditions in Dongting Lake have varied greatly because of signifi cant changes in runoff and sediment load in the Changjiang(Yangtze) River following the construction of Three Gorges Dam. The topography of the lake bottom has changed rapidly because of the intense exchange of water and sediment between the lake and the Changjiang River. However, time series information on lake-bottom topographic change is lacking. In this study, we introduced a method that combines remote sensing data and in situ water level data to extract a record of Dongting Lake bottom topography from 2003 to 2011. Multi-temporal lake land/water boundaries were extracted from MODIS images using the linear spectral mixture model method. The elevation of water/land boundary points were calculated using water level data and spatial interpolation techniques. Digital elevation models of Dongting Lake bottom topography in different periods were then constructed with the multiple heighted waterlines. The mean root-mean-square error of the linear spectral mixture model was 0.036, and the mean predicted error for elevation interpolation was-0.19 m. Compared with fi eld measurement data and sediment load data, the method has proven to be most applicable. The results show that the topography of the bottom of Dongting Lake has exhibited uneven erosion and deposition in terms of time and space over the last nine years. Moreover, lake-bottom topography has undergone a slight erosion trend within this period, with 58.2% and 41.8% of the lake-bottom area being eroded and deposited, respectively.

文摘The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact daily life worldwide.It would be helpful and valuable if we could obtain valid information from the COVID-19 pandemic sequential data itself for characterizing the pandemic.Here,we aim to demonstrate that it is feasible to analyze the patterns of the pandemic using a time-series clustering approach.In this work,we use dynamic time warping distance and hierarchical clustering to cluster time series of daily new cases and deaths from different countries into four patterns.It is found that geographic factors have a large but not decisive influence on the pattern of pandemic development.Moreover,the age structure of the population may also influence the formation of cluster patterns.Our proven valid method may provide a different but very useful perspective for other scholars and researchers.
