The influence of radio frequency (RF) power and the buffer gas pressure on the sensitivity is theoretically analyzed, and some properties are predicted. Based on the established measurement system and the visible Zeeman spectrum, not only is the real influence of these factors studied, but also, under our experimental condition, optimum parameters based on the measured curves are ascertained. The properties of these measured curves match the theoretical result very well. Our research attempts to provide theory reference to help magnetometer designers determine optimum parameters under certain conditions.展开更多

However, because of the mobility of the vessels/ships and the large inter.ship distances, nodes in the maritime network are frequently disconnected, forcing data communication in the maritime mesh networks to be opportunistic and delay.tolerant. In this paper, we present Lane Post, an optimization approach for maritime delay.tolerant routing protocol. We exploit the shipping lane information to predict the rendezvous opportunities of the ships to optimize the route selection in delay.tolerant routing. In particular, we show that when the shipping lane information is available, an opportunistic routing graph(ORG) for each ship can be constructed to predict its multi.hop data routing opportunities to the other ships or to the shore. Based on the ORG, we develop an optimal route protocol(i.e., Lane Post) for each ship to minimize its delay of multi.hop packet delivery via dynamic programming. We discussed the ways of collecting shipping lane information by centralized method or distributed method.The proposed Lane Post protocol was evaluated by ONE, an open.source delay.tolerant network simulator, which shows its dramatic performance improvement in terms of delay reduction compared to the state.of.the.art opportunistic routing protocols.展开更多

HC-256 is an emerged scheme as the new generation of stream ciphers for advanced network security. From a random sequencing viewpoint, both sequences of HC-256 and real DNA data may have intrinsic pseudo-random properties respectively. In a recent decade, many DNA sequencing projects are developed on cells, plants and animals over the world into huge DNA databases. Researchers notice that mammalian genomes encode thousands of large noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), interact with chromatin regulatory complexes, and are thought to play a role in localizing these complexes to target loci across the genome. It is a challenge target using higher dimensional visualization tools to organize various complex interactive properties as visual maps. The Variant Map System (VMS) as an emerging scheme is systematically proposed in this paper to apply multiple maps that used four Meta symbols as same as DNA or RNA representations. System architecture of key components and core mechanism on the VMS are described. Key modules, equations and their I/O parameters are discussed. Applying the VM System, two sets of real DNA sequences from both sample human (noncoding DNA) and corn (coding DNA) genomes are collected in comparison with pseudo DNA sequences generated by HC-256 to show their intrinsic properties in higher levels of similar relationships among relevant DNA sequences on 2D maps. Sample 2D maps are listed and their characteristics are illustrated under controllable environment. Visual results are briefly analyzed to explore their intrinsic properties on selected genome sequences.展开更多

But they still have difficulties when distinguishing between actions with high inter-ambiguity. The main reason is that they describe actions by orderless bag of features, and ignore the spatial and temporal structure information of visual words. In order to improve classification performance, we present a novel approach called sequential Bag-of-Words. It captures temporal sequential structure by segmenting the entire action into sub-actions. Meanwhile, we pay more attention to the distinguishing parts of an action by classifying sub- actions separately, which is then employed to vote for the final result. Extensive experiments are conducted on challenging datasets and real scenes to evaluate our method. Concretely, we compare our results to some state-of-the-art classification approaches and confirm the advantages of our approach to distinguish similar actions. Results show that our approach is robust and outperforms most existing BoWs based classification approaches, especially on complex datasets with interactive activities, cluttered backgrounds and inter-class action ambiguities.展开更多

Compared with the traditional rough set attribute reduction, the redundant evaluation items are eliminated by items’ correlation. It avoids a big overhead of calculating the core of rough sets that have many attributes. A novel rule reduction method is proposed based on reliability and coverage, in order to solve the problem of rarely appeared rules and conflict rules in traditional rough set. A sorting algorithm based on coverage is used to optimize the traditional flat evaluation questionnaire model with a hierarchical order. By these optimizations, the number of items that need to evaluate is greatly reduced. The proposed approach is deployed in an elderly service company named Lime family. Real-life result shows that the method can reduce more than 40% items with over 90% accuracy prediction rate. Compared with decision tree and the method based on expert knowledge in reduction rate and accuracy rate, the method has same performance in one index, and 20% improvement on average in the other one.展开更多

文摘Structured illumination microscopy(SIM)has been widely used in live-cell superresolution(SR)imaging.However,conventional physical model-based SIM SR reconstruction algorithms are prone to artifacts in handling raw images with low signal-to-noise ratios(SNRs).Deep-learning(DL)-based methods can address this challenge but may lead to degradation and hallucinations.By combining the physical inversion model with a total deep variation(TDV)regularization,we propose a hybrid restoration method(TDV-SIM)that outperforms conventional or DL methods in suppressing artifacts and hallucinations while maintaining resolutions.We demonstrate the performance superiority of TDV-SIM in restoring actin filaments,endoplasmic reticulum,and mitochondrial cristae from extremely low SNR raw images.Thus TDV-SIM represents the ideal method for prolonged live-cell SR imaging with minimal exposure and photodamage.Overall,TDV-SIM proves the power of integrating model-based reconstruction methods with DL ones,possibly leading to the rapid exploration of similar strategies in high-fidelity reconstructions of other microscopy methods.

文摘This paper is concerned with nonzero-sum discrete-time stochastic games in Borel state and action spaces under the expected discounted payoff criterion.The payoff function can be unbounded.The transition probability is a convex combination of finite probability measures that are dominated by a probability measure on the state space and depend on the state variable.Under suitable conditions,the authors establish the existence of stationary almost Markov ε-equilibria and give an approximation method via some stochastic games with bounded payoffs.Finally,a production game is introduced to illustrate the applications of the main result,which generalizes the bounded payoff case.

文摘Government-sponsored venture capital(GVC)has been used to support financially constrained start-ups as an important policy tool in China.Typically,to motivate the social capital to invest in start-ups,GVC provides subsidies for them to bridge the funding gap in the early-stage venture capital market.However,the effect and mechanism of GVC affecting social capital investment have not been clearly studied.In this paper,the authors not only develop a game model to analyze this issue in theory,but conduct an empirical study by analyzing the 14741 records matched by propensity score matching(PSM)of Chinese venture capital market data from 2011 to 2021.The proposed findings are as the follows.Firstly,the subsidies offered by GVC will simultaneously increase the returns and risks of investments in start-ups of social capital with more volatile incentive effect of GVC.The incentive effect of GVC is only effective when the returns resulting from the subsidies outweigh the risks they introduce.In the context of the Chinese venture capital market,the incentive effect of GVC is effective.Secondly,the incentive effect of GVC is more pronounced in high-tech industries,which can be attributed to the signaling effect facilitated by GVC.In this context,the subsidy mainly helps social capital to bear the costs associated with screening potential investments.Thirdly,the incentive effect of GVC is more significant in underdeveloped venture capital markets,which can be explained by the“virtuous cycle”effect,in which GVC plays a pioneering role in establishing a more robust early-stage market trading system.By examining these three points,this study contributes to a better understanding of how GVC can effectively guide social capital investment,especially in the Chinese landscape.
文摘Recently, approaches utilizing spatial-temporal features to form Bag-of-Words (BoWs) models have achieved great success due to their simplicity and effectiveness. But they still have difficulties when distinguishing between actions with high inter-ambiguity. The main reason is that they describe actions by orderless bag of features, and ignore the spatial and temporal structure information of visual words. In order to improve classification performance, we present a novel approach called sequential Bag-of-Words. It captures temporal sequential structure by segmenting the entire action into sub-actions. Meanwhile, we pay more attention to the distinguishing parts of an action by classifying sub- actions separately, which is then employed to vote for the final result. Extensive experiments are conducted on challenging datasets and real scenes to evaluate our method. Concretely, we compare our results to some state-of-the-art classification approaches and confirm the advantages of our approach to distinguish similar actions. Results show that our approach is robust and outperforms most existing BoWs based classification approaches, especially on complex datasets with interactive activities, cluttered backgrounds and inter-class action ambiguities.

文摘An important issue for deep learning models is the acquisition of training of data.Without abundant data from a real production environment for training,deep learning models would not be as widely used as they are today.However,the cost of obtaining abundant real-world environment is high,especially for underwater environments.It is more straightforward to simulate data that is closed to that from real environment.In this paper,a simple and easy symmetric learning data augmentation model(SLDAM)is proposed for underwater target radiate-noise data expansion and generation.The SLDAM,taking the optimal classifier of an initial dataset as the discriminator,makes use of the structure of the classifier to construct a symmetric generator based on antagonistic generation.It generates data similar to the initial dataset that can be used to supplement training data sets.This model has taken into consideration feature loss and sample loss function in model training,and is able to reduce the dependence of the generation and expansion on the feature set.We verified that the SLDAM is able to data expansion with low calculation complexity.Our results showed that the SLDAM is able to generate new data without compromising data recognition accuracy,for practical application in a production environment.
文摘In order to improve the efficiency of elderly evaluation, an optimization method based on rough set is proposed. Compared with the traditional rough set attribute reduction, the redundant evaluation items are eliminated by items’ correlation. It avoids a big overhead of calculating the core of rough sets that have many attributes. A novel rule reduction method is proposed based on reliability and coverage, in order to solve the problem of rarely appeared rules and conflict rules in traditional rough set. A sorting algorithm based on coverage is used to optimize the traditional flat evaluation questionnaire model with a hierarchical order. By these optimizations, the number of items that need to evaluate is greatly reduced. The proposed approach is deployed in an elderly service company named Lime family. Real-life result shows that the method can reduce more than 40% items with over 90% accuracy prediction rate. Compared with decision tree and the method based on expert knowledge in reduction rate and accuracy rate, the method has same performance in one index, and 20% improvement on average in the other one.
