文摘Real-time semantic segmentation tasks place stringent demands on network inference speed,often requiring a reduction in network depth to decrease computational load.However,shallow networks tend to exhibit degradation in feature extraction completeness and inference accuracy.Therefore,balancing high performance with real-time requirements has become a critical issue in the study of real-time semantic segmentation.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a lightweight bilateral dual-residual network.By introducing a novel residual structure combined with feature extraction and fusion modules,the proposed network significantly enhances representational capacity while reducing computational costs.Specifically,an improved compound residual structure is designed to optimize the efficiency of information propagation and feature extraction.Furthermore,the proposed feature extraction and fusion module enables the network to better capture multi-scale information in images,improving the ability to detect both detailed and global semantic features.Experimental results on the publicly available Cityscapes dataset demonstrate that the proposed lightweight dual-branch network achieves outstanding performance while maintaining low computational complexity.In particular,the network achieved a mean Intersection over Union(mIoU)of 78.4%on the Cityscapes validation set,surpassing many existing semantic segmentation models.Additionally,in terms of inference speed,the network reached 74.5 frames per second when tested on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 GPU,significantly improving real-time performance.

文摘Vehicle Edge Computing(VEC)and Cloud Computing(CC)significantly enhance the processing efficiency of delay-sensitive and computation-intensive applications by offloading compute-intensive tasks from resource-constrained onboard devices to nearby Roadside Unit(RSU),thereby achieving lower delay and energy consumption.However,due to the limited storage capacity and energy budget of RSUs,it is challenging to meet the demands of the highly dynamic Internet of Vehicles(IoV)environment.Therefore,determining reasonable service caching and computation offloading strategies is crucial.To address this,this paper proposes a joint service caching scheme for cloud-edge collaborative IoV computation offloading.By modeling the dynamic optimization problem using Markov Decision Processes(MDP),the scheme jointly optimizes task delay,energy consumption,load balancing,and privacy entropy to achieve better quality of service.Additionally,a dynamic adaptive multi-objective deep reinforcement learning algorithm is proposed.Each Double Deep Q-Network(DDQN)agent obtains rewards for different objectives based on distinct reward functions and dynamically updates the objective weights by learning the value changes between objectives using Radial Basis Function Networks(RBFN),thereby efficiently approximating the Pareto-optimal decisions for multiple objectives.Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can better coordinate the three-tier computing resources of cloud,edge,and vehicles.Compared to existing algorithms,the proposed method reduces task delay and energy consumption by 10.64%and 5.1%,respectively.

文摘Here,a novel real-time monitoring sensor that integrates the oxidation of peroxymonosulfate(PMS)and the in situ monitoring of the pollutant degradation process is proposed.Briefly,FeCo@carbon fiber(FeCo@CF)was utilized as the anode electrode,while graphite rods served as the cathode electrode in assembling the galvanic cell.The FeCo@CF electrode exhibited rapid reactivity with PMS,generating reactive oxygen species that efficiently degrade organic pollutants.The degradation experiments indicate that complete bisphenol A(BPA)degradation was achieved within 10 min under optimal conditions.The real-time electrochemical signal was measured in time during the catalytic reaction,and a linear relationship between BPA concentration and the real-time charge(Q)was confirmed by the equation ln(C0/C)=4.393Q(correlation coefficients,R^(2)=0.998).Furthermore,experiments conducted with aureomycin and tetracycline further validated the effectiveness of the monitoring sensor.First-principles investigation confirmed the superior adsorption energy and improved electron transfer in FeCo@CF.The integration of pollutant degradation with in situ monitoring of catalytic reactions offers promising prospects for expanding the scope of the monitoring of catalytic processes and making significant contributions to environmental purification.

文摘As an essential element of intelligent trans-port systems,Internet of vehicles(IoV)has brought an immersive user experience recently.Meanwhile,the emergence of mobile edge computing(MEC)has enhanced the computational capability of the vehicle which reduces task processing latency and power con-sumption effectively and meets the quality of service requirements of vehicle users.However,there are still some problems in the MEC-assisted IoV system such as poor connectivity and high cost.Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)equipped with MEC servers have become a promising approach for providing com-munication and computing services to mobile vehi-cles.Hence,in this article,an optimal framework for the UAV-assisted MEC system for IoV to minimize the average system cost is presented.Through joint consideration of computational offloading decisions and computational resource allocation,the optimiza-tion problem of our proposed architecture is presented to reduce system energy consumption and delay.For purpose of tackling this issue,the original non-convex issue is converted into a convex issue and the alternat-ing direction method of multipliers-based distributed optimal scheme is developed.The simulation results illustrate that the presented scheme can enhance the system performance dramatically with regard to other schemes,and the convergence of the proposed scheme is also significant.

文摘In the field of edge computing,achieving low-latency computational task offloading with limited resources is a critical research challenge,particularly in resource-constrained and latency-sensitive vehicular network environments where rapid response is mandatory for safety-critical applications.In scenarios where edge servers are sparsely deployed,the lack of coordination and information sharing often leads to load imbalance,thereby increasing system latency.Furthermore,in regions without edge server coverage,tasks must be processed locally,which further exacerbates latency issues.To address these challenges,we propose a novel and efficient Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)-based approach aimed at minimizing average task latency.The proposed method incorporates three offloading strategies:local computation,direct offloading to the edge server in local region,and device-to-device(D2D)-assisted offloading to edge servers in other regions.We formulate the task offloading process as a complex latency minimization optimization problem.To solve it,we propose an advanced algorithm based on the Dueling Double Deep Q-Network(D3QN)architecture and incorporating the Prioritized Experience Replay(PER)mechanism.Experimental results demonstrate that,compared with existing offloading algorithms,the proposed method significantly reduces average task latency,enhances user experience,and offers an effective strategy for latency optimization in future edge computing systems under dynamic workloads.

文摘In this study,a high-confining pressure and real-time large-displacement shearing-flow setup was developed.The test setup can be used to analyze the injection pressure conditions that increase the hydro-shearing permeability and injection-induced seismicity during hot dry rock geothermal extraction.For optimizing injection strategies and improving engineering safety,real-time permeability,deformation,and energy release characteristics of fractured granite samples driven by injected water pressure under different critical sliding conditions were evaluated.The results indicated that:(1)A low injection water pressure induced intermittent small-deformation stick-slip behavior in fractures,and a high injection pressure primarily caused continuous high-speed large-deformation sliding in fractures.The optimal injection water pressure range was defined for enhancing hydraulic shear permeability and preventing large injection-induced earthquakes.(2)Under the same experimental conditions,fracture sliding was deemed as the major factor that enhanced the hydraulic shear-permeability enhancement and the maximum permeability increased by 36.54 and 41.59 times,respectively,in above two slip modes.(3)Based on the real-time transient evolution of water pressure during fracture sliding,the variation coefficients of slip rate,permeability,and water pressure were fitted,and the results were different from those measured under quasi-static conditions.(4)The maximum and minimum shear strength criteria for injection-induced fracture sliding were also determined(μ=0.6665 andμ=0.1645,respectively,μis friction coefficient).Using the 3D(three-dimensional)fracture surface scanning technology,the weakening effect of injection pressure on fracture surface damage characteristics was determined,which provided evidence for the geological markers of fault sliding mode and sliding nature transitions under the fluid influence.

文摘This study first demonstrates the potential of organic photoabsorbing blends in overcoming a critical limitation of metal oxide photoanodes in tandem modules:insufficient photogenerated current.Various organic blends,including PTB7-Th:FOIC,PTB7-Th:O6T-4F,PM6:Y6,and PM6:FM,were systematically tested.When coupled with electron transport layer(ETL)contacts,these blends exhibit exceptional charge separation and extraction,with PM6:Y6 achieving saturation photocurrents up to 16.8 mA cm^(-2) at 1.23 VRHE(oxygen evolution thermodynamic potential).For the first time,a tandem structure utilizing organic photoanodes has been computationally designed and fabricated and the implementation of a double PM6:Y6 photoanode/photovoltaic structure resulted in photogenerated currents exceeding 7mA cm^(-2) at 0 VRHE(hydrogen evolution thermodynamic potential)and anodic current onset potentials as low as-0.5 VRHE.The herein-presented organic-based approach paves the way for further exploration of different blend combinations to target specific oxidative reactions by selecting precise donor/acceptor candidates among the multiple existing ones.

文摘The exponential expansion of the Internet of Things(IoT),Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT),and Transportation Management of Things(TMoT)produces vast amounts of real-time streaming data.Ensuring system dependability,operational efficiency,and security depends on the identification of anomalies in these dynamic and resource-constrained systems.Due to their high computational requirements and inability to efficiently process continuous data streams,traditional anomaly detection techniques often fail in IoT systems.This work presents a resource-efficient adaptive anomaly detection model for real-time streaming data in IoT systems.Extensive experiments were carried out on multiple real-world datasets,achieving an average accuracy score of 96.06%with an execution time close to 7.5 milliseconds for each individual streaming data point,demonstrating its potential for real-time,resourceconstrained applications.The model uses Principal Component Analysis(PCA)for dimensionality reduction and a Z-score technique for anomaly detection.It maintains a low computational footprint with a sliding window mechanism,enabling incremental data processing and identification of both transient and sustained anomalies without storing historical data.The system uses a Multivariate Linear Regression(MLR)based imputation technique that estimates missing or corrupted sensor values,preserving data integrity prior to anomaly detection.The suggested solution is appropriate for many uses in smart cities,industrial automation,environmental monitoring,IoT security,and intelligent transportation systems,and is particularly well-suited for resource-constrained edge devices.

文摘In the foundry industries,process design has traditionally relied on manuals and complex theoretical calculations.With the advent of 3D design in casting,computer-aided design(CAD)has been applied to integrate the features of casting process,thereby expanding the scope of design options.These technologies use parametric model design techniques for rapid component creation and use databases to access standard process parameters and design specifications.However,3D models are currently still created through inputting or calling parameters,which requires numerous verifications through calculations to ensure the design rationality.This process may be significantly slowed down due to repetitive modifications and extended design time.As a result,there are increasingly urgent demands for a real-time verification mechanism to address this issue.Therefore,this study proposed a novel closed-loop model and software development method that integrated contextual design with real-time verification,dynamically verifying relevant rules for designing 3D casting components.Additionally,the study analyzed three typical closed-loop scenarios of agile design in an independent developed intelligent casting process system.It is believed that foundry industries can potentially benefit from favorably reduced design cycles to yield an enhanced competitive product market.

文摘Tree trunk instance segmentation is crucial for under-canopy unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)to autonomously extract standing tree stem attributes.Using cameras as sensors makes these UAVs compact and lightweight,facilitating safe and flexible navigation in dense forests.However,their limited onboard computational power makes real-time,image-based tree trunk segmentation challenging,emphasizing the urgent need for lightweight and efficient segmentation models.In this study,we present RT-Trunk,a model specifically designed for real-time tree trunk instance segmentation in complex forest environments.To ensure real-time performance,we selected SparseInst as the base framework.We incorporated ConvNeXt-T as the backbone to enhance feature extraction for tree trunks,thereby improving segmentation accuracy.We further integrate the lightweight convolutional block attention module(CBAM),enabling the model to focus on tree trunk features while suppressing irrelevant information,which leads to additional gains in segmentation accuracy.To enable RT-Trunk to operate effectively under diverse complex forest environments,we constructed a comprehensive dataset for training and testing by combining self-collected data with multiple public datasets covering different locations,seasons,weather conditions,tree species,and levels of forest clutter.Com-pared with the other tree trunk segmentation methods,the RT-Trunk method achieved an average precision of 91.4%and the fastest inference speed of 32.9 frames per second.Overall,the proposed RT-Trunk provides superior trunk segmentation performance that balances speed and accu-racy,making it a promising solution for supporting under-canopy UAVs in the autonomous extraction of standing tree stem attributes.The code for this work is available at https://github.com/NEFU CVRG/RT Trunk.
