Therefore, accurate quantification of Spartina alterniflora aboveground biomass at a fine scale is crucial for understanding its growth dynamics and managing its invasion. This study focuses on the coastal wetlands of central Jiangsu Province, China, utilizing multispectral unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) data to map the distribution of Spartina alterniflora. Object-based image analysis(OBIA) combined with support vector machines(SVM) was employed for classification. Additionally, multiple regression models, including univariate, band-based, vegetation index(VI)-based, and multivariate linear regression models integrating both band and VI data, were developed to estimate biomass:(1) the Bands + VIs multiple linear regression model based on fresh weight exhibited the highest estimation accuracy;(2) the optimal model achieved R^(2) values of 0.81 and 0.82 at Dafeng and Tiaozini Nature Reserve,with RMSE values of 591.78 g/m^(2) and 337.62 g/m^(2), and MAE values of 576.82 g/m^(2) and 287.71 g/m^(2), respectively;and(3) the aboveground biomass of Spartina alterniflora primarily ranged from 994.60 g/m^(2) to 5 351.48 g/m^(2) at Dafeng and from 796.05 g/m^(2) to 1 994.02 g/m^(2) in Tiaozini Nature Reserve.

The number of satellites available for the geolocation task is more than sufficient and their locations are subject to random errors. This paper derives the constrained Cramor-Rao lower bound （CCRLB） of the target position, and on the basis of the CCRLB analysis, an approximately efficient constrained maximum likelihood estimator （CMLE） for geolocating the target is established. A new iterative algorithm for solving the CMLE is then proposed, where the updated target position estimate is shown to be the globally optimal solution to a generalized trust region sub-problem （GTRS） which can be found via a simple bisection search. First-order mean square error （MSE） analysis is conducted to quantify the performance degradation when the known target altitude is assumed to be precise but indeed has an unknown but deterministic error. Computer simulations are used to compare the performance of the proposed iterative geolocation technique with those of two benchmark algorithms. They verify the approximate efficiency of the proposed algorithm and the validity of the MSE analysis.展开更多

In this study, quartz sand acted as frame structure phase in the matrix, and quartz addition also influenced the Si/Ca of starting material. Tobermorite and CSH gel were formed readily at 62%, which seemed to enhance the compressive strength of samples. Curing time seemed to affect the morphology of phase produced, and specimen with the plate-like tobermorite formed at 10 h appeared to have a better compressive strength development than the fiber-like one at 18 h. The higher curing temperature seemed to favor the tobermorite and CSH gel formation, which also exerted a significant effect on the strength development of the samples. On the micro-scale, the formed CSH gel was filled in the interface of the matrix, and the tobermorite appeared to grow in internal-surface of the pores and interstices. The tobermorite or/and CSH formation seemed to densify the matrix, and therefore enhanced the strength of the samples.展开更多

During the fermentation process, temperature is one of the key parameters which decide the quality of Chinese rice wine. To optimize the SSF process for Chinese rice wine brewing, the effects of temperature on the kinetic parameters of yeast growth and ethanol production at various temperatures were determined in batch cultures using a mathematical model. The kinetic parameters as a function of temperature were evaluated using the software Origin8.0. Combing these functions with the mathematical model, an appropriate form of the model equations for the SSF considering the effects of temperature were developed. The kinetic parameters were found to fit the experimental data satisfactorily with the developed temperature-dependent model. The temperature profile for maximizing the ethanol production for rice wine fermentation was determined by genetic algorithm. The optimum temperature profile began at a low temperature of 26℃ up to 30 h. The operating temperature increased rapidly to 31.9 ℃, and then decreased slowly to 18℃ at 65 h. Thereafter, the temperature was maintained at 18 ℃ until the end of fermentation. A maximum ethanol production of 89.3 g.L 1 was attained. Conceivably, our model would facilitate the improvement of Chinese rice wine production at the industrial scale.展开更多

By using random walk algorithm, the basic LED array modules are optimized ftrstly. The optimized basic arrays can generate uniform illumination distribution on their target plane. The optimized basic LED array mod- ules can be integrated into a large LED array module with more than tens of LEDs. In the large array, we can select a sub-array with K LEDs （K〉7）, which can produce the good uniform illumination distribution. By this way, we design two LED arrays which consist of 21 and 25 LEDs, respectively. The 21-LED array and 25-LED array can generate uniform illumination distributions with the uniformities of 95% and 90%, respectively.展开更多

The probability limit theory and the algebra graph theory are employed to derive the necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing the mean square bounded consensus tracking. It is shown that the maximum allowable upper boundary of the sampling period simultaneously depends on the constant feedback gains and the network topology. Furthermore, the effects of the sampling period on the tracking performance are analysed. It turns out that from the view point of the sampling period, there is a trade-off between the tracking speed and the static tracking error. Simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.展开更多

The optimum temperature profile began at a low temperature of 26℃ up to 30 h. The operating temperature increased rapidly to 31.9 ℃, and then decreased slowly to 18℃ at 65 h. Thereafter, the temperature was maintained at 18 ℃ until the end of fermentation. A maximum ethanol production of 89.3 g.L 1 was attained. Conceivably, our model would facilitate the improvement of Chinese rice wine production at the industrial scale.

文摘The application of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)-mounted base stations is emerging as an effective solution to provide wireless communication service for a target region containing some smart objects(SOs)in internet of things(IoT).This paper investigates the efficient deployment problem of multiple UAVs for IoT communication in dynamic environment.We first define a measurement of communication performance of UAVto-SO in the target region which is regarded as the optimization objective.The state of one SO is active when it needs to transmit or receive the data;otherwise,silent.The switch of two different states is implemented with a certain probability that results in a dynamic communication environment.In the dynamic environment,the active states of SOs cannot be known by UAVs in advance and only neighbouring UAVs can communicate with each other.To overcome these challenges in the deployment,we leverage a game-theoretic learning approach to solve the position-selected problem.This problem is modeled a stochastic game,which is proven that it is an exact potential game and exists the best Nash equilibria(NE).Furthermore,a distributed position optimization algorithm is proposed,which can converge to a pure-strategy NE.Numerical results demonstrate the excellent performance of our proposed algorithm.

文摘With the rapid development of data applications in the scene of Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT),how to schedule resources in IIoT environment has become an urgent problem to be solved.Due to benefit of its strong scalability and compatibility,Kubernetes has been applied to resource scheduling in IIoT scenarios.However,the limited types of resources,the default scheduling scoring strategy,and the lack of delay control module limit its resource scheduling performance.To address these problems,this paper proposes a multi-resource scheduling(MRS)scheme of Kubernetes for IIoT.The MRS scheme dynamically balances resource utilization by taking both requirements of tasks and the current system state into consideration.Furthermore,the experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the MRS scheme in terms of delay control and resource utilization.

文摘In view of the randomness distribution of multiple users in the dynamic large-scale Internet of Things(IoT)scenario,comprehensively formulating available resources for fog nodes in the area and achieving computation services at low cost have become great challenges.As a result,this paper studies an efficient and intelligent computation offloading mechanism with resource allocation.Specifically,an optimization problem is formulated to minimize the total energy consumption of all tasks under the joint optimization of computation offloading decisions,bandwidth resources and transmission power.Meanwhile,a Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient-based Intelligent Computation Offloading(TD3PG-ICO)algorithm is proposed to solve this optimization problem.By combining the concept of the actor critic algorithm,the proposed algorithm designs two independent critic networks that can avoid the subjective prediction of a single critic network and better guide the policy network to generate the global optimal computation offloading policy.Additionally,this algorithm introduces a continuous variable discretization operation to select the target offloading node with random probability.The available resources of the target node are dynamically allocated to improve the model decision-making effect.Finally,the simulation results show that this proposed algorithm has faster convergence speed and good robustness.It can always approach the greedy algorithm with respect to the lowest total energy consumption.Furthermore,compared with full local and Deep Q-learning Network(DQN)-based computation offloading schemes,the total energy consumption can be reduced by an average of 15.53%and 6.41%,respectively.

Then, the algebra graph theory, the matrix method, the stability theory of linear systems, and some other techniques are employed to derive the necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing heterogeneous multi-agent systems to asymptotically achieve the stationary consensus. Finally, simulations are performed to demonstrate the correctness of the theoretical results.

文摘This paper investigates fault-tolerant finite-time dynamical consensus problems of double-integrator multi-agent systems(MASs)with partial agents subject to synchronous self-sensing function failure(SSFF).A strategy of recovering the connectivity of network topology among normal agents based on multi-hop communication and a fault-tolerant finitetime dynamical consensus protocol with time-varying gains are proposed to resist synchronous SSFF.It is proved that double-integrator MASs with partial agents subject to synchronous SSFF using the proposed strategy of network topology connectivity recovery and fault-tolerant finite-time dynamical consensus protocol with the proper time-varying gains can achieve finite-time dynamical consensus.Numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

文摘A design method for light-emitting diode （LED） array is proposed to achieve a good uniform illumination distribution on target plane. By using random walk algorithm, the basic LED array modules are optimized ftrstly. The optimized basic arrays can generate uniform illumination distribution on their target plane. The optimized basic LED array mod- ules can be integrated into a large LED array module with more than tens of LEDs. In the large array, we can select a sub-array with K LEDs （K〉7）, which can produce the good uniform illumination distribution. By this way, we design two LED arrays which consist of 21 and 25 LEDs, respectively. The 21-LED array and 25-LED array can generate uniform illumination distributions with the uniformities of 95% and 90%, respectively.

文摘This paper is concerned with the stochastic bounded consensus tracking problems of leader-follower multi-agent systems, where the control input of an agent can only use the information measured at the sampling instants from its neighbours or the virtual leader with a time-varying reference state, and the measurements are corrupted by random noises. The probability limit theory and the algebra graph theory are employed to derive the necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing the mean square bounded consensus tracking. It is shown that the maximum allowable upper boundary of the sampling period simultaneously depends on the constant feedback gains and the network topology. Furthermore, the effects of the sampling period on the tracking performance are analysed. It turns out that from the view point of the sampling period, there is a trade-off between the tracking speed and the static tracking error. Simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

文摘Software defect feature selection has problems of feature space dimensionality reduction and large search space.This research proposes a defect prediction feature selection framework based on improved shuffled frog leaping algorithm(ISFLA).Using the two-level structure of the framework and the improved hybrid leapfrog algorithm's own advantages,the feature values are sorted,and some features with high correlation are selected to avoid other heuristic algorithms in the defect prediction that are easy to produce local The case where the convergence rate of the optimal or parameter optimization process is relatively slow.The framework improves generalization of predictions of unknown data samples and enhances the ability to search for features related to learning tasks.At the same time,this framework further reduces the dimension of the feature space.After the contrast simulation experiment with other common defect prediction methods,we used the actual test data set to verify the framework for multiple iterations on Internet of Things(IoT)system platform.The experimental results show that the software defect prediction feature selection framework based on ISFLA is very effective in defect prediction of IoT communication software.This framework can save the testing time of IoT communication software,effectively improve the performance of software defect prediction,and ensure the software quality.

文摘Along with the rapid development of biometric authentication technology,face recognition has been commercially used in many industries in recent years.However,it cannot be ignored that face recognition-based authentication techniques can be easily spoofed using various types of attacks such photographs,videos or forged 3D masks.In order to solve this problem,this work proposed a face anti-fraud algorithm based on the fusion of thermal infrared images and visible light images.The normal temperature distribution of the human face is stable and characteristic,and the important physiological information of the human body can be observed by the infrared thermal images.Therefore,based on the thermal infrared image,the pixel value of the pulse sensitive area of the human face is collected,and the human heart rate signal is detected to distinguish between real faces and spoofing faces.In order to better obtain the texture features of the face,an image fusion algorithm based on DTCWT and the improved Roberts algorithm is proposed.Firstly,DTCWT is used to decompose the thermal infrared image and visible light image of the face to obtain high-and low-frequency subbands.Then,the method based on region energy and the improved Roberts algorithm are then used to fuse the coefficients of the high-and low-frequency subbands.Finally,the DTCWT inverse transform is used to obtain the fused image containing the facial texture features.Face recognition is carried out on the fused image to realize identity authentication.Experimental results show that this algorithm can effectively resist attacks from photos,videos or masks.Compared with the use of visible light images alone for face recognition,this algorithm has higher recognition accuracy and better robustness.
