Specifically, for the simplified case of constant stratospheric N^(2), the refractive index square of planetary waves has a theoretical tendency to increase first and then decrease with an increased N^(2), whereas the group velocity weakens. Mechanistically, this behavior can be understood as an intensified suppression of vertical isentropic surface displacement caused by meridional heat transport of planetary waves under strong N^(2) conditions. Observational analysis corroborates this finding, demonstrating a reduction in the vertical-propagation velocity of waves with increased N^(2). A linear, quasi- geostrophic, mid-latitude beta-plane model with a constant background westerly wind and a prescribed N^(2) applicable to the stratosphere is used to obtain analytic solutions. In this model, the planetary waves are initiated by steady energy influx from the lower boundary. The analysis indicates that under strong N^(2) conditions, the amplitude of planetary waves can be sufficiently increased by the effective energy convergence due to the slowing vertical energy transfer, resulting in a streamfunction response in this model that contains more energy. For N^(2) with a quasi-linear vertical variation, the results bear a resemblance to the constant case, except that the wave amplitude and oscillating frequency show some vertical variations.展开更多

The increasing number of electronicrecords brings about storage difficulties, the traditional electronic records center isdifficult to cope with the current fast growth requirements of electronic records storageand management. Therefore, it is imperative to use cloud storage technology to buildelectronic record centers. However, electronic records also have weaknesses in the cloudstorage environment, and one of them is that once electronic record owners or managerslose physical control of them, the electronic records are more likely to be tampered withand destroyed. So, the paper builds a reliable electronic records preservation systembased on coding theory. It can effectively guarantee the reliability of record storage whenthe electronic record is damaged, and the original electronic record can be restored byredundant coding, thus ensuring the reliable storage of electronic records.展开更多

文摘Since the initiation of the subseasonal-to-seasonal prediction project by the World Meteorological Organization,the accuracy of model forecasts has improved notably.However,substantial discrepancies have been observed among forecast results produced by different ensemble members when applied to South China.To enhance the accuracy of sub-seasonal forecasts in this region,it is essential to develop new methods that can effectively leverage multiple predictive models.This study introduces a weighted ensemble forecasting method based on online learning to improve forecast accuracy.We utilized ensemble forecasts from three models:the Integrated Forecasting System model from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts,the Climate Forecast System Version 2 model from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction,and the Beijing Climate Center-Climate Prediction System version 3 model from the China Meteorological Administration.The ensemble weights are trained using an online learning approach.The results indicate that the forecasts obtained through online learning outperform those of the original dynamical models.Compared to the simple ensemble results of the three models,the weighted ensemble model showed a stronger capability to capture temperature and precipitation patterns in South China.Therefore,this method has the potential to improve the accuracy of sub-seasonal forecasts in this region.

文摘Wearable sensors integrated with deep learning techniques have the potential to revolutionize seamless human-machine interfaces for real-time health monitoring,clinical diagnosis,and robotic applications.Nevertheless,it remains a critical challenge to simultaneously achieve desirable mechanical and electrical performance along with biocompatibility,adhesion,self-healing,and environmental robustness with excellent sensing metrics.Herein,we report a multifunctional,anti-freezing,selfadhesive,and self-healable organogel pressure sensor composed of cobalt nanoparticle encapsulated nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes(CoN CNT)embedded in a polyvinyl alcohol-gelatin(PVA/GLE)matrix.Fabricated using a binary solvent system of water and ethylene glycol(EG),the CoN CNT/PVA/GLE organogel exhibits excellent flexibility,biocompatibility,and temperature tolerance with remarkable environmental stability.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy confirms near-stable performance across a broad humidity range(40%-95%RH).Freeze-tolerant conductivity under sub-zero conditions(-20℃)is attributed to the synergistic role of CoN CNT and EG,preserving mobility and network integrity.The Co N CNT/PVA/GLE organogel sensor exhibits high sensitivity of 5.75 k Pa^(-1)in the detection range from 0 to 20 k Pa,ideal for subtle biomechanical motion detection.A smart human-machine interface for English letter recognition using deep learning achieved 98%accuracy.The organogel sensor utility was extended to detect human gestures like finger bending,wrist motion,and throat vibration during speech.

文摘To complement the atmospheric profile measurements under complex geographical environments and extreme weather conditions,a stratospheric balloon-based dropsonde technology,which is carried by a stratospheric balloon platform from the Earth's surface to the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere(UTLS)to release the dropsonde for measurements,is independently developed and preliminarily assessed over the Tibetan Plateau(TP)in this study.The dropsonde system is mainly composed of the dropsonde chamber,dropsonde with a parachute,data receiving and communication antennas,dropsonde-releasing device,and GPS(Global Positioning System)modules.The dropsonde measurements can be sent in real time through satellite communication links and by radio signals to a data receiver at the ground control center for storage and processing.A total of eight dropsondes aboard the stratospheric balloon were successfully released during the TP campaign in 2020.A preliminary assessment was conducted based on a case comparison between the dropsonde and radiosonde measurements,which indicated that the dropsonde technology we developed can generally provide reasonable atmospheric profiles.However,further efforts are still required to improve the detection performance of the dropsonde sensors after long-term locating in the UTLS and to assess the accuracy and precision of the detection technology more carefully.

文摘The accuracy of predicting the Producer Price Index(PPI)plays an indispensable role in government economic work.However,it is difficult to forecast the PPI.In our research,we first propose an unprecedented hybrid model based on fuzzy information granulation that integrates the GA-SVR and ARIMA(Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model)models.The fuzzy-information-granulation-based GA-SVR-ARIMA hybrid model is intended to deal with the problem of imprecision in PPI estimation.The proposed model adopts the fuzzy information-granulation algorithm to pre-classification-process monthly training samples of the PPI,and produced three different sequences of fuzzy information granules,whose Support Vector Regression(SVR)machine forecast models were separately established for their Genetic Algorithm(GA)optimization parameters.Finally,the residual errors of the GA-SVR model were rectified through ARIMA modeling,and the PPI estimate was reached.Research shows that the PPI value predicted by this hybrid model is more accurate than that predicted by other models,including ARIMA,GRNN,and GA-SVR,following several comparative experiments.Research also indicates the precision and validation of the PPI prediction of the hybrid model and demonstrates that the model has consistent ability to leverage the forecasting advantage of GA-SVR in non-linear space and of ARIMA in linear space.

文摘With the development of image restoration technology based on deep learning,more complex problems are being solved,especially in image semantic inpainting based on context.Nowadays,image semantic inpainting techniques are becoming more mature.However,due to the limitations of memory,the instability of training,and the lack of sample diversity,the results of image restoration are still encountering difficult problems,such as repairing the content of glitches which cannot be well integrated with the original image.Therefore,we propose an image inpainting network based on Wasserstein generative adversarial network(WGAN)distance.With the corresponding technology having been adjusted and improved,we attempted to use the Adam algorithm to replace the traditional stochastic gradient descent,and another algorithm to optimize the training used in recent years.We evaluated our algorithm on the ImageNet dataset.We obtained high-quality restoration results,indicating that our algorithm improves the clarity and consistency of the image.

文摘The Global Energy Interconnection is an important strategic approach used to achieve efficient worldwide energy allocation.The idea of developing integrated power,information,and transportation networks provides increased power interconnection functionality and meaning,helps condense forces,and accelerates the integration of global infrastructure.Correspondingly,it is envisaged that it will become the trend of industrial technological development in the future.In consideration of the current trend of integrated development,this study evaluates a possible plan of coordinated development of fiber-optic and power networks in the Pan-Arctic region.Firstly,the backbone network architecture of Global Energy Interconnection is introduced and the importance of the Arctic energy backbone network is confirmed.The energy consumption and developmental trend of global data centers are then analyzed.Subsequently,the global network traffic is predicted and analyzed by means of a polynomial regression model.Finally,in combination with the current construction of fiber-optic networks in the Pan-Arctic region,the advantages of the integration of the fiber-optic and power networks in this region are clarified in justification of the decision for the development of a Global Energy Interconnection scheme.
文摘In recent years,WiFi indoor positioning technology has become a hot research topic at home and abroad.However,at present,indoor positioning technology still has many problems in terms of practicability and stability,which seriously affects the accuracy of indoor positioning and increases the complexity of the calculation process.Aiming at the instability of RSS and the more complicated data processing,this paper proposes a low-frequency filtering method based on fast data convergence.Low-frequency filtering uses MATLAB for data fitting to filter out low-frequency data;data convergence combines the mean and multi-data parallel analysis process to achieve a good balance between data volume and system performance.At the same time,this paper combines the position fingerprint and the relative position method in the algorithm,which reduces the error on the algorithm system.The test results show that the strategy can meet the requirements of indoor passive positioning and avoid a large amount of data collection and processing,and the average positioning error is below 0.5 meters.
文摘With the rapid development of E-commerce and E-government, there are somany electronic records have been produced. The increasing number of electronicrecords brings about storage difficulties, the traditional electronic records center isdifficult to cope with the current fast growth requirements of electronic records storageand management. Therefore, it is imperative to use cloud storage technology to buildelectronic record centers. However, electronic records also have weaknesses in the cloudstorage environment, and one of them is that once electronic record owners or managerslose physical control of them, the electronic records are more likely to be tampered withand destroyed. So, the paper builds a reliable electronic records preservation systembased on coding theory. It can effectively guarantee the reliability of record storage whenthe electronic record is damaged, and the original electronic record can be restored byredundant coding, thus ensuring the reliable storage of electronic records.

文摘QR codes are applied widely on the Internet and mobile devices in recent years.Its open standards and the characteristics of easy to generate lead to anyone can generate their QR code easily.Also,the QR code does not have the ability of hiding information,which leads to everyone can get access to read the content in any QR code,including those hiding some secret content in the bytes of QR code.Therefore,in recent years,information tampering and information leakage cases caused by poor security of two-dimensional code occur frequently,especially in the financial field and multi-party verification scenarios.QR codes are almost impossible to use in these scenarios.Therefore,this paper proposes a distributed information sharing method based on information hiding QR code.This method can make secret code in QR code safer and robust,and the secret shared between receivers can be used for decryption and attacking detection.Therefore,on the one hand,the information hiding method can maximize the capacity of embedded secret information,on the other hand,it can prevent attacks by disguised attackers and recover hidden secret information through reconstruction.This paper illustrates the feasibility of this scheme through the form of theoretical proof.

文摘The Qinba Mountains are climatically and ecologically recognized as the north-south transitional zone of China.Analysis of its phenology is critical for comprehending the response of vegetation to climatic change.We retrieved the start of spring phenology(SOS)of eight forest communities from the MODIS products and adopted it as an indicator for spring phenology.Trend analysis,partial correlation analysis,and GeoDetector were employed to reveal the spatio-temporal patterns and climatic drivers of SOS.The results indicated that the SOS presented an advance trend from 2001 to 2020,with a mean rate of−0.473 d yr^(−1).The SOS of most forests correlated negatively with air temperature(TEMP)and positively with precipitation(PRE),suggesting that rising TEMP and increasing PRE in spring would forward and delay SOS,respectively.The dominant factors influencing the sensitivity of SOS to climatic variables were altitude,forest type,and latitude,while the effects of slope and aspect were relatively minor.The response of SOS to climatic factors varied significantly in space and among forest communities,partly due to the influence of altitude,slope,and aspect.

文摘This study investigates extreme rainfall episodes along the eastern foothills of the Taihang Mountains in North China from 30 July to 1 August 2023.It focuses on two types of extreme hourly rainfall rates(HRRs),i.e.,the maximum regionalaverage HRR and site-observed HRR,which exhibited sequential development over southern,middle,and northern key regions.These rainfall extremes occurred in an environment where a high-pressure barrier over North China prevented the intrusion of cold air masses from the north while a northward-moving typhoon remnant vortex and its associated low-level jet(LLJ)transported warm and moist airflow from the south.Two distinct echo evolution modes and convection initiation mechanisms are identified for the two types of extreme HRRs.The maximum regional-average HRR occurred when the LLJ arrived to the east of the key regions,while the maximum site-observed HRR occurred when the warmer vortex center influenced the regions.Taking the northern key region as a representation,at the time of the maximum regional-average HRR,slantwise ascent of the airflow along a warm-frontal-like boundary released energy related to symmetrical instability,resulting in stratiform rainfall with weak convective cores.The transport of locally initiated convection over the eastern plain region,where the atmospheric stratification was more potentially unstable,also significantly contributed.When the maximum site-observed HRR occurred,the terrain lifting of warm and moist southeast airflow led to intense convection over the mountain foothills.Overall,the passage of the warm-core typhoon remnant vortex and interaction with Taihang Mountains determined the timing and location of extreme HRRs across the key regions.

文摘Camera Pose Estimating from point and line correspondences is critical in various applications,including robotics,augmented reality,3D reconstruction,and autonomous navigation.Existing methods,such as the Perspective-n-Point(PnP)and Perspective-n-Line(PnL)approaches,offer limited accuracy and robustness in environments with occlusions,noise,or sparse feature data.This paper presents a unified solution,Efficient and Accurate Pose Estimation from Point and Line Correspondences(EAPnPL),combining point-based and linebased constraints to improve pose estimation accuracy and computational efficiency,particularly in low-altitude UAV navigation and obstacle avoidance.The proposed method utilizes quaternion parameterization of the rotation matrix to overcome singularity issues and address challenges in traditional rotation matrix-based formulations.A hybrid optimization framework is developed to integrate both point and line constraints,providing a more robust and stable solution in complex scenarios.The method is evaluated using synthetic and realworld datasets,demonstrating significant improvements in performance over existing techniques.The results indicate that the EAPnPL method enhances accuracy and reduces computational complexity,making it suitable for real-time applications in autonomous UAV systems.This approach offers a promising solution to the limitations of existing camera pose estimation methods,with potential applications in low-altitude navigation,autonomous robotics,and 3D scene reconstruction.
