This area has stratigraphy of Precambrian to Quaternary rocks and is located in the Central Iran zone. According to the presence of signs of gold mineralization in this area, it is necessary to identify important mineral areas in this area. Therefore, finding information is necessary about the relationship and monitoring the elements of gold, arsenic, and antimony relative to each other in this area to determine the extent of geochemical halos and to estimate the grade. Therefore, a well-known and useful K-means method is used for monitoring the elements in the present study, this is a clustering method based on minimizing the total Euclidean distances of each sample from the center of the classes which are assigned to them. In this research, the clustering quality function and the utility rate of the sample have been used in the desired cluster (S(i)) to determine the optimum number of clusters. Finally, with regard to the cluster centers and the results, the equations were used to predict the amount of the gold element based on four parameters of arsenic and antimony grade, length and width of sampling points.展开更多

The corresponding studies not only have been restricted to the search for the geometrical structures of clusters, but also have promoted the development of cluster-assembled materials as the building blocks. The CALYPSO cluster prediction method combined with other computational techniques have significantly stimulated the development of the cluster-based nanomaterials. In this review, we will summarize some good cases of cluster structure by CALYPSO method, which have also been successfully identified by the photoelectron spectra experiments. Beginning with the alkali-metal clusters, which serve as benchmarks, a series of studies are performed on the size-dependent elemental clusters which possess relatively high stability and interesting chemical physical properties. Special attentions are paid to the boron-based clusters because of their promising applications. The NbSi12 and BeB16 clusters, for example, are two classic representatives of the silicon-and boron-based clusters, which can be viewed as building blocks of nanotubes and borophene. This review offers a detailed description of the structural evolutions and electronic properties of medium-sized pure and doped clusters, which will advance fundamental knowledge of cluster-based nanomaterials and provide valuable information for further theoretical and experimental studies.展开更多

However, due to the complicated multi-parameter relationships and their comprehensive influence, the selection of refracturing candidate is often very difficult. In this paper, a novel approach combining data analysis techniques and fuzzy clustering was proposed to select refracturing candidate. First, the analysis techniques were used to quantitatively calculate the weight coefficient and determine the key factors. Then, the idealized refracturing well was established by considering the main factors. Fuzzy clustering was applied to evaluate refracturing potential. Finally, reservoirs numerical simulation was used to further evaluate reservoirs energy and material basis of the optimum refracturing candidates. The hybrid method has been successfully applied to a tight oil reservoir in China. The average steady production was 15.8 t/d after refracturing treatment, increasing significantly compared with previous status. The research results can guide the development of tight oil and gas reservoirs effectively.展开更多

Firstly,projection ray-based method is proposed to improve the feature extraction efficiency of 3D models. Based on the relationship between model and its projection,the intersection in 3D space is transformed into intersection in 2D space,which reduces the number of intersection and improves the efficiency of the extraction algorithm. In feature extraction,multi-layer spheres method is analyzed. The two-layer spheres method makes the feature vector more accurate and improves retrieval precision. Secondly,Semi-supervised Affinity Propagation ( S-AP) clustering is utilized because it can be applied to different cluster structures. The S-AP algorithm is adopted to find the center models and then the center model collection is built. During retrieval process,the collection is utilized to classify the query model into corresponding model base and then the most similar model is retrieved in the model base. Finally,75 sample models from Princeton library are selected to do the experiment and then 36 models are used for retrieval test. The results validate that the proposed method outperforms the original method and the retrieval precision and recall ratios are improved effectively.展开更多

To obtain this information, an efficient bubble profile reconstruction method based on an improved agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The reconstruction method is featured by the implementations of a binary space division preprocessing, which aims to reduce the computational complexity, an adaptive linkage criterion, which guarantees the applicability of the AHC algorithm when dealing with datasets involving either non-uniform or distorted grids, and a stepwise execution strategy, which enables the separation of attached bubbles. To illustrate and verify this method, it was applied to dealing with 3 datasets, 2 of them with pre-specified spherical bubbles and the other obtained by a surface-resolved CFD simulation. Application results indicate that the proposed method is effective even when the data include some non-uniform and distortion.展开更多

A new method, Back Propagation Neural Network （BPNN）, is used to estimate the cluster membership probability in order to detect its tidal tails. Cluster and field stars, used for training the networks, are extracted over a 40 × 20 deg^2 field by color-magnitude diagrams （CMDs）. The best BPNNs with two hidden layers and a Levenberg-Marquardt （LM） training algorithm are determined by the chosen cluster and field samples. The membership probabilities of stars in the whole field are obtained with the BPNNs, and contour maps of the probability distribution show that a tail extends .5.42° to the north of the cluster and another tail extends 3.77° to the south. The tails are similar to those detected by Odenkirchen et al., but no more debris from the cluster is found to the northeast in the sky. The radial density profiles are investigated both along the tails and near the cluster center. Quite a few substructures are discovered in the tails. The number density profile of the cluster is fitted with the King model and the tidal radius is determined as 14.28＇. However, the King model cannot fit the observed profile at the outer regions （R 〉 8＇） because of the tidal tails generated by the tidal force. Luminosity functions of the cluster and the tidal tails are calculated, which confirm that the tails originate from Palomar 5.展开更多

This model is called kernel modified possibilistic c-means （KMPCM） model. The proposed model is an extension of the modified possibilistic c-means （MPCM） algorithm by using kernel methods. Different from MPCM and fuzzy c-means （FCM） model which are based on Euclidean distance, the proposed model is based on kernel-induced distance. Furthermore, with kernel methods the input data can be mapped implicitly into a high-dimensional feature space where the nonlinear pattern now appears linear. It is unnecessary to do calculation in the high-dimensional feature space because the kernel function can do it. Numerical experiments show that KMPCM outperforms FCM and MPCM.展开更多

Product platforms enable firms to provide increased product variety for the marketplace with as little variety between products as possible. Developed consumer products and modules within a firm can further be investigated to find out the possibility of product platform creation. A bottom-up method is proposed for module-based product platform through mapping, clustering and matching analysis. The framework and the parametric model of the method are presented, which consist of three steps:(1) mapping parameters from existing product families to functional modules,(2) clustering the modules within existing module families based on their parameters so as to generate module clusters, and selecting the satisfactory module clusters based on commonality, and(3) matching the parameters of the module clusters to the functional modules in order to capture platform elements. In addition, the parameter matching criterion and mismatching treatment are put forward to ensure the effectiveness of the platform process, while standardization and serialization of the platform element are presented. A design case of the belt conveyor is studied to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.展开更多

文摘This paper presents an evaluation method for the entropy-weighting of wind power clusters that comprehensively evaluates the allocation problems of wind power clusters by considering the correlation between indicators and the dynamic performance of weight changes.A dynamic layered sorting allocation method is also proposed.The proposed evaluation method considers the power-limiting degree of the last cycle,the adjustment margin,and volatility.It uses the theory of weight variation to update the entropy weight coefficients of each indicator in real time,and then performs a fuzzy evaluation based on the membership function to obtain intuitive comprehensive evaluation results.A case study of a large-scale wind power base in Northwest China was conducted.The proposed evaluation method is compared with fixed-weight entropy and principal component analysis methods.The results show that the three scoring trends are the same,and that the proposed evaluation method is closer to the average level of the latter two,demonstrating higher accuracy.The proposed allocation method can reduce the number of adjustments made to wind farms,which is significant for the allocation and evaluation of wind power clusters.

文摘In this work,a novel in situ auto-reduction strategy was developed to encapsulate uniformly dispersed Pd clusters/nanoparticles in MIL-125-NH_(2).It is demonstrated that the amino groups in MIL-125-NH_(2)can react with formaldehyde to form novel reducing groups(-NH-CH_(2)OH),which can in situ auto-reduce the encapsulated Pd^(2+)ions to metallic Pd clusters/nanoparticles.As no additional reductants are required,the strategy limits the aggregation and migration of Pd clusters and the formation of large Pd nanoparticles via controlling the amount of Pd^(2+)precursor.When applied as catalysts in the hydrogenation of phenol in the aqueous phase,the obtained Pd(1.5)/MIL-125-NH-CH_(2)OH catalyst with highly dispersed Pd clusters/nanoparticles with the size of around 2 nm exhibited 100%of phenol conversion and 100%of cyclohexanone selectivity at 70℃ after 5 h,as well as remarkable reusability for at least five cycles due to the large MOF surface area,the highly dispersed Pd clusters/nanoparticles and their excellent stability within the MIL-125-NH-CH_(2)OH framework.
文摘The idea of modified water masses is introduced and a cluster analysis is used for determining the boundary of modified water masses and its variety in the shallow water area of the Huanghai Sea (Yellow Sea) and the East China Sea. According to the specified standards to make the cluster, we have determined the number and boundary of the water masses and the mixed zones.The results obtained by the cluster method show that there are eight modified water masses in this area. According to the relative index of temperature and salinity,the modified water masses are divided into nine different characteristic parts. The water, masses may also be divided into three salinity types. On the TS-Diagram, the points concerning temperature and safinity of different modified mater masses are distributed around a curve, from which the characteristics of gradual modification may be embodied. The variation ranges of different modified water masses are all large, explaining the intensive modification of water masses in

文摘The sixth Data Release （DR6） of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey （SDSS） provides more photometric regions, new features and more accurate data around globular cluster Palomar 5. A new method, Back Propagation Neural Network （BPNN）, is used to estimate the cluster membership probability in order to detect its tidal tails. Cluster and field stars, used for training the networks, are extracted over a 40 × 20 deg^2 field by color-magnitude diagrams （CMDs）. The best BPNNs with two hidden layers and a Levenberg-Marquardt （LM） training algorithm are determined by the chosen cluster and field samples. The membership probabilities of stars in the whole field are obtained with the BPNNs, and contour maps of the probability distribution show that a tail extends .5.42° to the north of the cluster and another tail extends 3.77° to the south. The tails are similar to those detected by Odenkirchen et al., but no more debris from the cluster is found to the northeast in the sky. The radial density profiles are investigated both along the tails and near the cluster center. Quite a few substructures are discovered in the tails. The number density profile of the cluster is fitted with the King model and the tidal radius is determined as 14.28＇. However, the King model cannot fit the observed profile at the outer regions （R 〉 8＇） because of the tidal tails generated by the tidal force. Luminosity functions of the cluster and the tidal tails are calculated, which confirm that the tails originate from Palomar 5.
文摘Applying calculation method in alloy design should be an important tendency due to its characters of inexpensive cost, high efficiency and prediction. DOS calculations of AuSn, AsSn and SbSn Sn- based alloys have been investigated by employing DV - Xa method, in which different cluster models were adopted to calculate electron structure.It is proved that some regulations must be taken into ac- count in order to carry out alloy design calculation successfully,which are described in this paper in detail.

文摘A novel model of fuzzy clustering using kernel methods is proposed. This model is called kernel modified possibilistic c-means （KMPCM） model. The proposed model is an extension of the modified possibilistic c-means （MPCM） algorithm by using kernel methods. Different from MPCM and fuzzy c-means （FCM） model which are based on Euclidean distance, the proposed model is based on kernel-induced distance. Furthermore, with kernel methods the input data can be mapped implicitly into a high-dimensional feature space where the nonlinear pattern now appears linear. It is unnecessary to do calculation in the high-dimensional feature space because the kernel function can do it. Numerical experiments show that KMPCM outperforms FCM and MPCM.

文摘Designing product platform could be an effective and efficient solution for manufacturing firms. Product platforms enable firms to provide increased product variety for the marketplace with as little variety between products as possible. Developed consumer products and modules within a firm can further be investigated to find out the possibility of product platform creation. A bottom-up method is proposed for module-based product platform through mapping, clustering and matching analysis. The framework and the parametric model of the method are presented, which consist of three steps:(1) mapping parameters from existing product families to functional modules,(2) clustering the modules within existing module families based on their parameters so as to generate module clusters, and selecting the satisfactory module clusters based on commonality, and(3) matching the parameters of the module clusters to the functional modules in order to capture platform elements. In addition, the parameter matching criterion and mismatching treatment are put forward to ensure the effectiveness of the platform process, while standardization and serialization of the platform element are presented. A design case of the belt conveyor is studied to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

文摘Open clusters(OCs)serve as invaluable tracers for investigating the properties and evolution of stars and galaxies.Despite recent advancements in machine learning clustering algorithms,accurately discerning such clusters remains challenging.We re-visited the 3013 samples generated with a hybrid clustering algorithm of FoF and pyUPMASK.A multi-view clustering(MvC)ensemble method was applied,which analyzes each member star of the OC from three perspectives—proper motion,spatial position,and composite views—before integrating the clustering outcomes to deduce more reliable cluster memberships.Based on the MvC results,we further excluded cluster candidates with fewer than ten member stars and obtained 1256 OC candidates.After isochrone fitting and visual inspection,we identified 506 candidate OCs in the Milky Way.In addition to the 493 previously reported candidates,we finally discovered 13 high-confidence new candidate clusters.
