文摘In daily life,keyword spotting plays an important role in human-computer interaction.However,noise often interferes with the extraction of time-frequency information,and achieving both computational efficiency and recognition accuracy on resource-constrained devices such as mobile terminals remains a major challenge.To address this,we propose a novel time-frequency dual-branch parallel residual network,which integrates a Dual-Branch Broadcast Residual module and a Time-Frequency Coordinate Attention module.The time-domain and frequency-domain branches are designed in parallel to independently extract temporal and spectral features,effectively avoiding the potential information loss caused by serial stacking,while enhancing information flow and multi-scale feature fusion.In terms of training strategy,a curriculum learning approach is introduced to progressively improve model robustness fromeasy to difficult tasks.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method consistently outperforms existing lightweight models under various signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)conditions,achieving superior far-field recognition performance on the Google Speech Commands V2 dataset.Notably,the model maintains stable performance even in low-SNR environments such as–10 dB,and generalizes well to unseen SNR conditions during training,validating its robustness to novel noise scenarios.Furthermore,the proposed model exhibits significantly fewer parameters,making it highly suitable for deployment on resource-limited devices.Overall,the model achieves a favorable balance between performance and parameter efficiency,demonstrating strong potential for practical applications.

文摘Grouting is an essential technique for reinforcing tunnel rock masses following deformation and failure.However,the mechanisms and effectiveness evaluation of grouting in fractured rock masses that have experienced substantial deformation and transition into the residual stage remain insufficiently understood.To elucidate the relationship between grouting effectiveness and pre-cracking strain,grouting and subsequent re-fracturing tests were conducted on sandy mudstone specimens with varying levels of pre-cracking strain.Additionally,a model was developed to determine the optimal grouting timing during the residual stage.The results indicate that the failure mode of specimens in the residual stage exhibits banded and localized distribution patterns.As pre-cracking strain increases,both the maximum fracture aperture and the relative grout injection ratio increase,with the increases becoming more pronounced at higher strain levels.After grouting,the consolidation coefficient and strength enhancement coefficient exhibit a positive correlation with pre-cracking strain,although the rate of increase gradually decreases.Grouting does not alter the initial failure mode of residual-stage fractured specimens but effectively suppresses secondary crack propagation in regions distant from primary fractures.At the microscale,grout bonds within the rock matrix form cavity structures that delay tensile failure and generate an interconnected network,thereby enhancing crack resistance.Based on the evolution of rock damage and the efficiency of grouting materials utilization,a method is proposed to determine the optimal grouting timing for fractured specimens in the residual stage.At the optimal timing,specimens exhibit moderate damage while maintaining high reinforcement efficiency per unit mass of grout.

文摘High-resolution remote sensing imagery is essential for critical applications such as precision agriculture,urban management planning,and military reconnaissance.Although significant progress has been made in singleimage super-resolution(SISR)using generative adversarial networks(GANs),existing approaches still face challenges in recovering high-frequency details,effectively utilizing features,maintaining structural integrity,and ensuring training stability—particularly when dealing with the complex textures characteristic of remote sensing imagery.To address these limitations,this paper proposes the Improved ResidualModule and AttentionMechanism Network(IRMANet),a novel architecture specifically designed for remote sensing image reconstruction.IRMANet builds upon the Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network(SRGAN)framework and introduces several key innovations.First,the Enhanced Residual Unit(ERU)enhances feature reuse and stabilizes training through deep residual connections.Second,the Self-Attention Residual Block(SARB)incorporates a self-attentionmechanism into the Improved Residual Module(IRM)to effectivelymodel long-range dependencies and automatically emphasize salient features.Additionally,the IRM adopts amulti-scale feature fusion strategy to facilitate synergistic interactions between local detail and global semantic information.The effectiveness of each component is validated through ablation studies,while comprehensive comparative experiments on standard remote sensing datasets demonstrate that IRMANet significantly outperforms both the baseline and state-of-the-art methods in terms of perceptual quality and quantitative metrics.Specifically,compared to the baseline model,at a magnification factor of 2,IRMANet achieves an improvement of 0.24 dB in peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)and 0.54 in structural similarity index(SSIM);at a magnification factor of 4,it achieves gains of 0.22 dB in PSNR and 0.51 in SSIM.These results confirm that the proposedmethod effectively enhances detail representation and structural reconstruction accuracy in complex remote sensing scenarios,offering robust technical support for high-precision detection and identification of both military and civilian aircraft.

文摘The neutron diffusion equation plays a pivotal role in nuclear reactor analysis.Nevertheless,employing the physics-informed neural network(PINN)method for its solution entails certain limitations.Conventional PINN approaches generally utilize a fully connected network(FCN)architecture that is susceptible to overfitting,training instability,and gradient vanishing as the network depth increases.These challenges result in accuracy bottlenecks in the solution.In response to these issues,the residual-based resample physics-informed neural network(R2-PINN)is proposed.It is an improved PINN architecture that replaces the FCN with a convolutional neural network with a shortcut(S-CNN).It incorporates skip connections to facilitate gradient propagation between network layers.Additionally,the incorporation of the residual adaptive resampling(RAR)mechanism dynamically increases the number of sampling points.This,in turn,enhances the spatial representation capabilities and overall predictive accuracy of the model.The experimental results illustrate that our approach significantly improves the convergence capability of the model and achieves high-precision predictions of the physical fields.Compared with conventional FCN-based PINN methods,R 2-PINN effectively overcomes the limitations inherent in current methods.Thus,it provides more accurate and robust solutions for neutron diffusion equations.

文摘Statistical distribution of residual fatigue life(RFL)of railway axles under given loading was computed using the Monte Carlo method by considering random variation of the selected input parameters.Experimental data for the EA4T railway axle steel,the loading spectrum,the press fit loading and the residual stress induced by surface hardening were considered in the crack propagation simulations.Usually,the material properties measured by tensile tests are considered to be the most informative source of material data.Under fatigue loading,however,the crack growth rates near the threshold are the most critical data.Two important influencing factors on these crack growth rates are presented:first,the air humidity and,second,the near-surface residual stress.The typical variation of these parameters in operation may change the RFL by one or two orders of magnitude.Experimentally obtained crack growth thresholds and residual stress profiles are highly affected by the used methodology.Therefore,the obtained input data may be located anywhere within a large scatter,while the experimenters are completely unaware of it.This can lead to dangerously non-conservative situations,e.g.when the thresholds are measured in a laboratory under humid air conditions and then applied to predictions of RFLs of axles operated in winter in low air humidity.This is significant for the topic of inspection interval optimisation.The results of experiments done on real 1:1 railway axles were close to the most frequent value found in the histogram of the numerically computed RFLs.

文摘This study proposes a multi-scale simplified residual convolutional neural network(MS-SRCNN)for the precise prediction of Mg-Nd binary alloy compositions from scanning electron microscope(SEM)images.A multi-scale data structure is established by spatially aligning and stacking SEM images at different magnifications.The MS-SRCNN significantly reduces computational runtime by over 90%compared to traditional architectures like ResNet50,VGG16,and VGG19,without compromising prediction accuracy.The model demonstrates more excellent predictive performance,achieving a>5%increase in R^(2) compared to single-scale models.Furthermore,the MS-SRCNN exhibits robust composition prediction capability across other Mg-based binary alloys,including Mg-La,Mg-Sn,Mg-Ce,Mg-Sm,Mg-Ag,and Mg-Y,thereby emphasizing its generalization and extrapolation potential.This research establishes a non-destructive,microstructure-informed composition analysis framework,reduces characterization time compared to traditional experiment methods and provides insights into the composition-microstructure relationship in diverse material systems.

文摘This letter introduces the novel concept of Painlevé solitons—waves arising from the interaction between Painlevé waves and solitons in integrable systems.Painlevé solitons can also be viewed as solitons propagating against a Painlevé wave background,in analogy to the established notion of elliptic solitons,which refers to solitons on an elliptic wave background.By employing a novel symmetry decomposition method aided by nonlocal residual symmetries,we explicitly construct (extended) Painlevé Ⅱ solitons for the Korteweg-de Vries equation and (extended) Painlevé Ⅳ solitons for the Boussinesq equation.

文摘Despite the superior advantages of specific emitter identification in extracting emitter features from in-phase and quadrature(I/Q)signals,challenges persist due to signal-type confusion and background noise interference.To address those limitations,this paper proposes a multi-channel contrast prediction coding and complex-valued residuals network(MCPC-MCVResNet)framework.This model employs contrast prediction techniques to directly extract discriminative features from electromagnetic signal sequences,effectively capturing both amplitude and phase information within I/Q data.A core innovation of this approach is the sphere space softmax(SS-softmax)loss,which optimizes intra-class clustering density of while establishing well-defined boundaries between distinct emitters.The SS-softmax mechanism significantly enhances the model's capacity to discern subtle variations among radiation emitters.Experimental results demonstrate superior identification accuracy,rapid convergence,and exceptional robustness in low signal-to-noise ratio environments.

文摘The biodegradable polybutylene succinate(PBS)material offers a sustainable solution for a circular economy to address the global issue of marine plastic waste.Its cross-linkage with non-biodegradable xanthan gum(XG)biopolymer to ameliorate residual granitic soil(RGS)in arid and semiarid regions can significantly mitigate soil erosion.This study investigates the enhancement of RGS by cross-linking the PBS and XG biopolymers.Employing a multitude of geotechnical tests(liquid limit,linear shrinkage,specific gravity,compaction,and UCS tests)at 3 d,28 d,and 90 d of steam-curing at a controlled temperature of 16℃,the outcomes were validated through scanning electron microscopy(SEM),thermogravimetric analysis(TGA),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET)analyses.In addition,a comprehensive experimental database of 150 tests and nine parameters from the current study was utilized to model the UCS90-d(i.e.unconfined compressive strength after 90 d of curing)of the PBS-XG-treated RGS mixtures by deploying the random forest(RF)and eXtreme Gradient Boost(XGBoost)methods.The results found that the two biopolymers significantly improve the mechanical properties of RGS,with optimal UCS achieved at specific dosages(0.4PBS,1.5XG,and 0.2PBS+1.5XG dosage levels)and curing times.The UCS of PBS-XG-treated RGS showed up to a 57%increase after 90 d of curing.Furthermore,SEM and FTIR analyses revealed the formation of stronger microstructures and chemical bonds,respectively,whereas BET analysis indicated that pore volume and diameter are critical in affecting UCS.The proposed RF model outperformed XGBoost in predictive accuracy and generalization,demonstrating robustness and versatility.Moreover,SHAP values highlighted the significant impact of input parameters on UCS90-d,with curing time and specific material properties being key determinants.The study concludes with the proposal of a novel PyCharm intuitive graphical user interface as a"UCS Prediction App"for engineers and practitioners to forecast the UCS90-d of granitic residual soil.

文摘The sensing light source of the line scan camera cannot be fully exposed in a low light environment due to the extremely small number of photons and high noise,which leads to a reduction in image quality.A multi-scale fusion residual encoder-decoder(FRED)was proposed to solve the problem.By directly learning the end-to-end mapping between light and dark images,FRED can enhance the image’s brightness with the details and colors of the original image fully restored.A residual block(RB)was added to the network structure to increase feature diversity and speed up network training.Moreover,the addition of a dense context feature aggregation module(DCFAM)made up for the deficiency of spatial information in the deep network by aggregating the context’s global multi-scale features.The experimental results show that the FRED is superior to most other algorithms in visual effect and quantitative evaluation of peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)and structural similarity index measure(SSIM).For the factor that FRED can restore the brightness of images while representing the edge and color of the image effectively,a satisfactory visual quality is obtained under the enhancement of low-light.
文摘BACKGROUND At present,the influencing factors of social function in patients with residual depressive symptoms are still unclear.Residual depressive symptoms are highly harmful,leading to low mood in patients,affecting work and interpersonal communication,increasing the risk of recurrence,and adding to the burden on families.Studying the influencing factors of their social function is of great significance.AIM To explore the social function score and its influencing factors in patients with residual depressive symptoms.METHODS This observational study surveyed patients with residual depressive symptoms(case group)and healthy patients undergoing physical examinations(control group).Participants were admitted between January 2022 and December 2023.Social functioning was assessed using the Sheehan Disability Scale(SDS),and scores were compared between groups.Factors influencing SDS scores in patients with residual depressive symptoms were analyzed by applying multiple linear regression while using the receiver operating characteristic curve,and these RESULTS The SDS scores of the 158 patients with depressive symptoms were 11.48±3.26.Compared with the control group,the SDS scores and all items in the case group were higher.SDS scores were higher in patients with relapse,discon-tinuous medication,drug therapy alone,severe somatic symptoms,obvious residual symptoms,and anxiety scores≥8.Disease history,medication compliance,therapy method,and residual symptoms correlated positively with SDS scores(r=0.354,0.414,0.602,and 0.456,respectively).Independent influencing factors included disease history,medication compliance,therapy method,somatic symptoms,residual symptoms,and anxiety scores(P<0.05).The areas under the curve for predicting social functional impairment using these factors were 0.713,0.559,0.684,0.729,0.668,and 0.628,respectively,with sensitivities of 79.2%,61.8%,76.8%,81.7%,63.6%,and 65.5%and specificities of 83.3%,87.5%,82.6%,83.3%,86.7%,and 92.1%,respectively.CONCLUSION The social function scores of patients with residual symptoms of depression are high.They are affected by disease history,medication compliance,therapy method,degree of somatic symptoms,residual symptoms,and anxiety.

文摘Producing steel requires large amounts of energy to convert iron ores into steel,which often comes from fossil fuels,leading to carbon emissions and other pollutants.Increasing scrap usage emerges as one of the most effective strategies for addressing these issues.However,typical residual elements(Cu,As,Sn,Sb,Bi,etc.)inherited from scrap could significantly influence the mechanical properties of steel.In this work,we investigate the effects of residual elements on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of a quenching and partitioning(Q&P)steel by comparing a commercial QP1180 steel(referred to as QP)to the one containing typical residual elements(Cu+As+Sn+Sb+Bi<0.3wt%)(referred to as QP-R).The results demonstrate that in comparison with the QP steel,the residual elements significantly refine the prior austenite grain(9.7μm vs.14.6μm)due to their strong solute drag effect,leading to a higher volume fraction(13.0%vs.11.8%),a smaller size(473 nm vs.790 nm)and a higher average carbon content(1.26 wt%vs.0.99 wt%)of retained austenite in the QP-R steel.As a result,the QP-R steel exhibits a sustained transformation-induced plasticity(TRIP)effect,leading to an enhanced strain hardening effect and a simultaneous improvement of strength and ductility.Grain boundary segregation of residual elements was not observed at prior austenite grain boundaries in the QP-R steel,primarily due to continuous interface migration during austenitization.This study demonstrates that the residual elements with concentrations comparable to that in scrap result in significant microstructural refinement,causing retained austenite with relatively higher stability and thus offering promising mechanical properties and potential applications.

文摘The dominated contradiction in optimizing the performance of magnesium-air battery anode lies in the difficulty of achieving a good balance between activation and passivation during discharge process.To further reconcile this contradiction,two Mg-0.1Sc-0.1Y-0.1Ag anodes with different residual strain distribution through extrusion with/without annealing are fabricated.The results indicate that annealing can significantly lessen the“pseudo-anode”regions,thereby changing the dissolution mode of the matrix and achieving an effective dissolution during discharge.Additionally,p-type semiconductor characteristic of discharge productfilm could suppress the self-corrosion reaction without reducing the polarization of anode.The magnesium-air battery utilizing annealed Mg-0.1Sc-0.1Y-0.1Ag as anode achieves a synergistic improvement in specific capacity(1388.89 mA h g^(-1))and energy density(1960.42 mW h g^(-1)).This anode modification method accelerates the advancement of high efficiency and long lifespan magnesium-air batteries,offering renewable and cost-effective energy solutions for electronics and emergency equipment.
