文摘Machine learning(ML)has recently enabled many modeling tasks in design,manufacturing,and condition monitoring due to its unparalleled learning ability using existing data.Data have become the limiting factor when implementing ML in industry.However,there is no systematic investigation on how data quality can be assessed and improved for ML-based design and manufacturing.The aim of this survey is to uncover the data challenges in this domain and review the techniques used to resolve them.To establish the background for the subsequent analysis,crucial data terminologies in ML-based modeling are reviewed and categorized into data acquisition,management,analysis,and utilization.Thereafter,the concepts and frameworks established to evaluate data quality and imbalance,including data quality assessment,data readiness,information quality,data biases,fairness,and diversity,are further investigated.The root causes and types of data challenges,including human factors,complex systems,complicated relationships,lack of data quality,data heterogeneity,data imbalance,and data scarcity,are identified and summarized.Methods to improve data quality and mitigate data imbalance and their applications in this domain are reviewed.This literature review focuses on two promising methods:data augmentation and active learning.The strengths,limitations,and applicability of the surveyed techniques are illustrated.The trends of data augmentation and active learning are discussed with respect to their applications,data types,and approaches.Based on this discussion,future directions for data quality improvement and data imbalance mitigation in this domain are identified.
文摘The flexible satellite batch production line is a complex discrete production system with multiple cross-disciplinary fields and mixed serial parallel tasks.As the source of the satellite batch production line process,the warehousing system has urgent needs such as uncertain production scale and rapid iteration and optimization of business processes.Therefore,the requirements and architecture of complex discrete warehousing systems such as flexible satellite batch production lines are studied.The physical system of intelligent equipment is abstracted as a digital model to form the underlying module,and a digital fusion framework of“business domain+middleware platform+intelligent equipment information model”is constructed.The granularity of microservice splitting is calculated based on the dynamic correlation relationship between user access instances and database table structures.The general warehousing functions of the platform are divided to achieve module customization,addition,and configuration.An open discrete warehousing system based on microservices is designed.Software architecture and design develop complex discrete warehousing systems based on the SpringCloud framework.This architecture achieves the decoupling of business logic and physical hardware,enhances the maintainability and scalability of the system,and greatly improves the system’s adaptability to different complex discrete warehousing business scenarios.

文摘Sparse code multiple access(SCMA)is a non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)scheme based on joint modulation and spread spectrum coding.It is ideal for future communication networks with a massive number of nodes due to its ability to handle user overload.Introducing SCMA into visible light communication(VLC)systems can improve the data transmission capability of the system.However,designing a suitable codebook becomes a challenging problem when addressing the demands of massive connectivity scenarios.Therefore,this paper proposes a low-complexity design method for high-overload codebooks based on the minimum bit error rate(BER)criterion.Firstly,this paper constructs a new codebook with parameters based on the symmetric mother codebook structure by allocating the codeword power so that the power of each user codebook is unbalanced;then,the BER performance in the visible light communication system is optimized to obtain specific parameters;finally,the successive interference cancellation(SIC)detection algorithm is used at the receiver side.Simulation results show that the method proposed in this paper can converge quickly by utilizing a relatively small number of detection iterations.This can simultaneously reduce the complexity of design and detection,outperforming existing design methods for massive SCMA codebooks.
文摘This paper proposes a class of novel progressive edge growth-based codebooks for downlink sparse code multiple access(SCMA)systems.In the first scheme,we propose to progressively design the codebooks of each resource node(RN)instead of rotating a mother constellation(MC)as in the conventional SCMA works.In the other one,based on the MC,a multi-resources rotated codebooks are proposed to improve the performance of the superimposed constellations.The resultant codebooks are respectively referred to as the resource edge multidimensional codebooks(REMC)and the user edge multi-dimensional codebooks(UEMC).Additionally,we delve into the detailed design of the MC and the superimposed constellation.Then,we pay special attention to the application of the proposed schemes to challenging design cases,particularly for the high dimensional,high rate,and irregular codebooks,where the corresponding simplified schemes are proposed to reduce the complexity of codebook design.Finally,simulation results are presented to demonstrate the superiority of our progressive edge growth-based schemes.The numerical results indicate that the proposed codebooks significantly outperform the stateof-the-art codebooks.In addition,we also show that the proposed REMC codebooks outperform in the lower signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)regime,whereas the UEMC codebooks exhibit better performance at higher SNRs.

文摘The lunar surface and its deep layers contain abundant resources and valuable information resources,the exploration and exploitation of which are important for the sustainable development of the human economy and society.Technological exploration and research in the field of deep space science,especially lunar-based exploration,is a scientific strategy that has been pursued in China and worldwide.Drilling and sampling are key to accurate exploration of the desirable characteristics of deep lunar resources.In this study,an in-situ condition preserved coring(ICP-Coring)and analysis system,which can be used to test drilling tools and develop effective sampling strategies,was designed.The key features of the system include:(1)capability to replicate the extreme temperature fluctuations of the lunar environment(-185 to 200℃)with intelligent temperature control;(2)ability to maintain a vacuum environment at a scale of 10^(-3) Pa,both under unloaded conditions within Ф580 mm×1000 mm test chamber,and under loaded conditions using Ф400 mm×800 mm lunar rock simulant;(3)application of axial pressures up to 4 MPa and confining pressures up to 3.5 MPa;(4)sample rotation at any angle with a maximum sampling length of 800 mm;and(5)multiple modes of rotary-percussive drilling,controlled by penetration speed and weight on bit(WOB).Experimental studies on the drilling characteristics in the lunar rock simulant-loaded state under different drill bit-percussive-vacuum environment configurations were conducted.The results show that the outgassing rate of the lunar soil simulant is greater than that of the lunar rock simulant and that a low-temperature environment contributes to a reduced vacuum of the lunar-based simulated environment.The rotary-percussive drilling method effectively shortens the sampling time.With increasing sampling depth,the temperature rise of the drilling tools tends to rapidly increase,followed by slow growth or steady fluctuations.The temperature rise energy accumulation of the drill bits under vacuum is more significant than that under atmospheric pressure,approximately 1.47 times higher.The real-time monitored drilling pressure,penetration speed and rotary torque during drilling serve as parameters for discriminating the drilling status.The results of this research can provide a scientific basis for returning samples from lunar rock in extreme lunar-based environments.
