The investigation consists of the following five steps. At first, we select a set of geometric configurations and for each configuration we construct a large amount of geometric data as observation data using dynamic geometry programs together with the pseudo-random number generator. Secondly, we refer to the geometric predicates in the algebraic method of machine proof of geometric theorems to construct statistics suitable for measuring the approximate geometric relationships in the observation data. In the third step, we propose a geometric relationship detection method based on the similarity of data distribution, where the search space has been reduced into small batches of data by pre-searching for efficiency, and the hypothetical test of the possible geometric relationships in the search results has be performed. In the fourth step, we explore the integer relation of the line segment lengths in the geometric configuration in addition. At the final step, we do numerical experiments for the pre-selected geometric configurations to verify the effectiveness of our method. The results show that computer equipped with the above procedures can find out the hidden geometric relations from the randomly generated data of related geometric configurations, and in this sense, computing machines can actually attain certain consciousness of intuitive geometry as early civilized humans in ancient Mesopotamia.展开更多

Firstly, we prove that SVM as a classifier can also be used for localization. Then, soft constrained Minimum Average Correlation Energy filter (soft constrained MACE) is proposed, which is more resistent to overfittings to training set than other variants of correlation filter. In order to improve the performance for the multi-mode of the targets, locally linear framework is introduced to our model, which results in Fourier Locally Linear Soft Constraint MACE (FL^2 SC-MACE). Furthermore, we formulate the fast implementation and show that the time consumption in test process is independent of the number of training samples. The merits of our method include accurate localization performance, desiring generalization capability to the variance of objects, fast testing speed and insensitivity to parameter settings. We conduct the cross-set eye localization experiments on challenging FRGC, FERET and BioID datasets. Our method surpasses the state-of-arts especially in pixelwise accuracy.展开更多

Herein, the X-PtZn/Zn-N-C electrocatalysts show a strong structural sensitive behavior depends on the size of the PtZn nanoparticles and their EOP activity exhibits a volcano-type dependence for the O3 performance in neutral media. The 7.7-PtZn/Zn-N-C exhibits EOP current efficiency of 4.2%, and shows the prominent performance in the production of gaseous O3 with a value of 1647 ppb at 30 min, which is almost 4-fold compared to 2.2-Pt Zn/Zn-N-C. Based on the experiments and theoretical calculations, the performance of the EOP process was determined by the nanoparticle size-effect and the synergistic effect between the PtZn nanoparticles and atomically dispersed Zn-N-C. Furthermore, the fivemembered cyclic structure of O3 can be stabilized between the PtZn nanoparticle and the Zn-N-C support,indicating that O3 is produced at the interface.展开更多

文摘Diamond is a wide-bandgap semiconductor with a variety of crystal configurations,and has the potential applications in the field of high-frequency,radiation-hardened,and high-power devices.There are several important polytypes of diamonds,such as cubic diamond,lonsdaleite,and nanotwinned diamond(NTD).The thermal conductivities of semiconductors in high-power devices at different temperatures should be calculated.However,there has been no reports about thermal conductivities of cubic diamond and its polytypes both efficiently and accurately based on molecular dynamics(MD).Here,using interatomic potential of neural networks can provide obvious advantages.For example,comparing with the use of density functional theory(DFT),the calculation time is reduced,while maintaining high accuracy in predicting the thermal conductivities of the above-mentioned three diamond polytypes.Based on the neuroevolution potential(NEP),the thermal conductivities of cubic diamond,lonsdaleite,and NTD at 300 K are respectively 2507.3 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1),1557.2 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1),and 985.6 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1),which are higher than the calculation results based on Tersoff-1989 potential(1508 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1),1178 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1),and 794 W·m^(-1)·K^(-1),respectively).The thermal conductivities of cubic diamond and lonsdaleite,obtained by using the NEP,are closer to the experimental data or DFT data than those from Tersoff-potential.The molecular dynamics simulations are performed by using NEP to calculate the phonon dispersions,in order to explain the possible reasons for discrepancies among the cubic diamond,lonsdaleite,and NTD.In this work,we propose a scheme to predict the thermal conductivity of cubic diamond,lonsdaleite,and NTD precisely and efficiently,and explain the differences in thermal conductivity among cubic diamond,lonsdaleite,and NTD.

文摘As each cluster head(CH)sensor node is used to aggregate,fuse,and forward data from different sensor nodes in an underwater acoustic sensor network(UASN),guaranteeing the data security in a CH is very critical.In this paper,a cooperative security monitoring mechanism aided by multiple slave cluster heads(SCHs)is proposed to keep track of the data security of a CH.By designing a low complexity“equilateral triangle algorithm(ETA)”,the optimal SCHs(named as ETA-based multiple SCHs)are selected from the candidate SCHs so as to improve the dispersion and coverage of SCHs and achieve largescale data security monitoring.In addition,by analyzing the entire monitoring process,the close form expression of the probability of the failure attack identification for the SCHs with respect to the probability of attack launched by ordinary nodes is deduced.The simulation results show that the proposed optimal ETA-based multiple SCH cooperation scheme has lower probability of the failure attack identification than that of the existing schemes.In addition,the numerical simulation results are consistent with the theoretical analysis results,thus verifying the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
文摘In this paper, we present our research on building computing machines consciousness about intuitive geometry based on mathematics experiments and statistical inference. The investigation consists of the following five steps. At first, we select a set of geometric configurations and for each configuration we construct a large amount of geometric data as observation data using dynamic geometry programs together with the pseudo-random number generator. Secondly, we refer to the geometric predicates in the algebraic method of machine proof of geometric theorems to construct statistics suitable for measuring the approximate geometric relationships in the observation data. In the third step, we propose a geometric relationship detection method based on the similarity of data distribution, where the search space has been reduced into small batches of data by pre-searching for efficiency, and the hypothetical test of the possible geometric relationships in the search results has be performed. In the fourth step, we explore the integer relation of the line segment lengths in the geometric configuration in addition. At the final step, we do numerical experiments for the pre-selected geometric configurations to verify the effectiveness of our method. The results show that computer equipped with the above procedures can find out the hidden geometric relations from the randomly generated data of related geometric configurations, and in this sense, computing machines can actually attain certain consciousness of intuitive geometry as early civilized humans in ancient Mesopotamia.
文摘This paper proposes a novel nonlinear correlation filter for facial landmark localization. Firstly, we prove that SVM as a classifier can also be used for localization. Then, soft constrained Minimum Average Correlation Energy filter (soft constrained MACE) is proposed, which is more resistent to overfittings to training set than other variants of correlation filter. In order to improve the performance for the multi-mode of the targets, locally linear framework is introduced to our model, which results in Fourier Locally Linear Soft Constraint MACE (FL^2 SC-MACE). Furthermore, we formulate the fast implementation and show that the time consumption in test process is independent of the number of training samples. The merits of our method include accurate localization performance, desiring generalization capability to the variance of objects, fast testing speed and insensitivity to parameter settings. We conduct the cross-set eye localization experiments on challenging FRGC, FERET and BioID datasets. Our method surpasses the state-of-arts especially in pixelwise accuracy.

文摘The expression of major histocompatibility complex class I(MHC-I),a key antigen-presenting protein,can be induced in dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra,thus indicating its possible involvement in the occurrence and development of Parkinson’s disease.However,it remains unclear whether oxidative stress induces Parkinson’s disease through the MHC-I pathway.In the present study,polymerase chain reaction and western blot assays were used to determine the expression of MHC-I in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium(MPP+)-treated SH-SY5Y cells and a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP)-induced Parkinson’s disease mouse model.The findings revealed that MHC-I was expressed in both models.To detect whether the expression of MHC-I was able to trigger the infiltration of cytotoxic T cells,immunofluorescence staining was used to detect cytotoxic cluster of differentiation 8(CD8)+T cell infiltration in the substantia nigra of MPTP-treated mice.The results indicated that the presentation of MHC-I in dopaminergic neurons was indeed accompanied by an increase in the number of CD8+T cells.Moreover,in MPTP-induced Parkinson’s disease model mice,the genetic knockdown of endogenous MHC-I,which was caused by injecting specific adenovirus into the substantia nigra,led to a significant reduction in CD8+T cell infiltration and alleviated dopaminergic neuronal death.To further investigate the molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress-induced MHC-I presentation,the expression of PTEN-induced kinase 1(PINK1)was silenced in MPP+-treated SH-SY5Y cells using specific small interfering RNA(siRNA),and there was more presentation of MHC-I in these cells compared with control siRNA-treated cells.Taken together,MPP+-/MPTP-induced oxidative stress can trigger MHC-I presentation and autoimmune activation,thus rendering dopaminergic neurons susceptible to immune cells and degeneration.This may be one of the mechanisms of oxidative stress-induced Parkinson’s disease,and implies the potential neuroprotective role of PINK1 in oxidative stress-induced MHC-I presentation.All animal experiments were approved by the Southern Medical University Ethics Committee(No.81802040,approved on February 25,2018).

文摘Magmatic-hydrothermal Sn deposits are commonly associated with high silica magmas,but why most global high silica granites do not bear economic Sn ore grades remains unclear.Two crucial factors controlling magmatic-hydrothermal Sn mineralization,including advanced fractionation and depressurization-induced rapid cooling,were revealed in the case study of the Guyong granitic pluton linked with the Xiaolonghe Sn deposit,in the Tengchong block,SW China.The Guyong granitic pluton comprises three petrological facies:less evolved biotite syenogranite,evolved alkali granite and leucogranite,and highly evolved facies(the protolith of greisenized granite).Similar crystallization ages(~77 Ma)and gradual contact between different petrological facies indicate the Guyong granitic pluton records a continuous fractionation process.Monte Carlo-revised Rayleigh fractionation model suggests the fractionation degree of the Guyong pluton is markedly high(>87 wt.%)that can only be achieved by a high initial water(≥4 wt.%)content in the parent granitic magma revealed by rhyolite-MELTS calculation.Advanced degree fractionation causes the first Sn enrichment but it also significantly increases the viscosity of evolved magmas,suppressing the exsolution and transport of hydrothermal fluids.Hence,it must be compensated by the second critical factor:depressurization-induced rapid cooling,reflected by the occurrence of highly metamict zircons in the greisenized granite.The highly metamict feature,indicated by the large full width at half maximum(FWHM)values of zirconν3(SiO_(4)) peak(>19.5 cm^(-1)),suggests these zircons do not experience thermal annealing but rapidly ascend into a shallow cooling environment.Depressurization-induced rapid cooling facilitates exsolution and transport of hydrothermal fluids,interacting with wall rocks and resulting in Sn mineralization.

文摘Electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis under mild conditions is an attractive and challenging process in the earth’s nitrogen cycle,which requires efficient and stable catalysts to reduce the overpotential.The N2 activation and reduction overpotential of different Ti3C2O2-supported transition metal(TM)(Sc,Ti,V,Cr,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Zn,Mo,Ru,Rh,Pd,Ag,Cd,and Au)single-atom catalysts have been analyzed in terms of the Gibbs free energies calculated using the density functional theory(DFT).The end-on N2 adsorption was more energetically favorable,and the negative free energies represented good N2 activation performance,especially in the presence Fe/Ti3C2O2(﹣0.75 eV).The overpotentials of Fe/Ti3C2O2,Co/Ti3C2O2,Ru/Ti3C2O2,and Rh/Ti3C2O2 were 0.92,0.89,1.16,and 0.84 eV,respectively.The potential required for ammonia synthesis was different for different TMs and ranged from 0.68 to 2.33 eV.Two possible potential-limiting steps may be involved in the process:(i)hydrogenation of N2 to*NNH and(ii)hydrogenation of*NH2 to ammonia.These catalysts can change the reaction pathway and avoid the traditional N–N bond-breaking barrier.It also simplifies the understanding of the relationship between the Gibbs free energy and overpotential,which is a significant factor in the rational designing and large-scale screening of catalysts for the electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis.

文摘The influence of intermetallic Al-Mn particles on the corrosion behavior of in-situ formed Mg-Al layered double hydroxide(Mg-Al-CO32--LDH)steam coating on AZ31 Mg alloy was investigated.The alloy was pretreated with H3PO4,HCl,HNO3or citric acid(CA),followed by hydrothermal treatment,for the fabrication of Mg-Al-LDH coating.The microstructure,composition and corrosion resistance of the coated samples were investigated.The results showed that the surface area fraction of Al-Mn phase exposed on the surface of the alloy was significantly increased after CA pretreatment,which promotes the growth of the Mg-Al-LDH steam coating.Further,the LDH-coated alloy pretreated with CA possessed the most compact surface and the maximum coating thickness among all the coatings.The corrosion current density of the coated alloy was decreased by three orders of magnitude as compared to that of the bare alloy.
文摘The nitrogen reduction reaction(NRR)using new and efficient electrocatalysts is a promising al‐ternative to the traditional Haber‐Bosch process.Nevertheless,it remains a challenge to design efficient catalysts with improved catalytic performance.Herein,various O‐functional MXenes were investigated as NRR catalysts by a combination of density functional theory calculations and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression.Nb_(3)C_(2)O_(X) has been regarded as a promising catalyst for the NRR because of its stability,activity,and selectivity.The poten‐tial‐determining step is*NH_(2) hydrogenation to*NH3 with a limiting potential of-0.45 V.Further‐more,via LASSO regression,the descriptors and equations fitting the relationship between the properties of O‐functional MXenes and NRR activity have been proposed.This work not only pro‐vides a rational design strategy for catalysts but also provides machine learning data for further investigation.

文摘Based on the daily average temperature from March 19 to April 2,2021 at three surface meteorological stations in western Guizhou and the daily average temperature,maximum temperature and minimum temperature from March 19 to April 2,2021 at 12 main automatic meteorological stations of red cartridge kiwifruit base,the effects of low temperature and high temperature on flowering and pollination of red cartridge kiwifruit in early spring of 2021 were analyzed.The results showed that slight cold spell in later spring in western Guizhou occurred from March 21 to 23.The lower limit of the daily average temperature required for flowering period(12℃or below)appeared in each base of red cartridge kiwifruit during March 21-23,which affected the red cartridge kiwifruit trees in Faer,Houchang,Miluo,Shunchang,Panlong and Jichang bases flowering and pollinating before March 20.From March 29 to April 2,the daily maximum temperature of Faer and other eleven bases was 30℃or above,which caused the wilting and abscission of flowers and young fruits of of red cartridge kiwifruit trees in Faer,Houchang,Miluo,Shunchang,Panlong,shaomi,Jichang and Aga bases blooming and pollinating before March 24,but the flowers of red cartridge kiwifruit trees in Langdai,Longhe,Pugu and Shuangfeng bases blooming and pollinating after March 28 were not damaged.
文摘Obtaining a detailed understanding of the surface modification of supports is crucial;however,it is a challenging task for the development and large-scale fabrication of supported electrocatalysts that can be used as alternatives to Pt-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR).In this study,commercial silicon carbide(SiC)was modified through surface oxidization(O-SiC)to support the use of Pd nanoparticles(Pd NPs)as electrocatalysts for ORR.The obtained Pd/O-SiC catalysts exhibited better ORR activity,stronger durability,and higher resistance to methanol poisoning than that exhibited by commercial Pt/C.The role of the support in enhancing the ORR performance,especially the oxidization of SiC surfaces,was discussed in detail based on the experimental characterizations and density functional theory calculations.The underlying mechanism of the superior ORR performance of Pd/O-SiC catalysts was attributed to the charge transfer from SiC_(x)O_(y)to Pd NPs on the surfaces of SiC and the strong metal–support interactions(SMSIs)between Pd and SiC_(x)O_(y).The charge transfer enhanced the ORR activity by inducing electron-rich Pd,increased the adsorption of the key intermediate OOH,and decreased the Gibbs free energy of the critical ORR step.Furthermore,SMSIs enhanced the ORR stability of the Pd/O-SiC catalyst.This study provided a facile route for designing and developing highly active Pd-based ORR electrocatalysts.

文摘Electrochemical ozone production(EOP) via water electrolysis represents an attractive method for the generation of high-purity O3. Herein, the X-PtZn/Zn-N-C electrocatalysts show a strong structural sensitive behavior depends on the size of the PtZn nanoparticles and their EOP activity exhibits a volcano-type dependence for the O3 performance in neutral media. The 7.7-PtZn/Zn-N-C exhibits EOP current efficiency of 4.2%, and shows the prominent performance in the production of gaseous O3 with a value of 1647 ppb at 30 min, which is almost 4-fold compared to 2.2-Pt Zn/Zn-N-C. Based on the experiments and theoretical calculations, the performance of the EOP process was determined by the nanoparticle size-effect and the synergistic effect between the PtZn nanoparticles and atomically dispersed Zn-N-C. Furthermore, the fivemembered cyclic structure of O3 can be stabilized between the PtZn nanoparticle and the Zn-N-C support,indicating that O3 is produced at the interface.

文摘Online social media networks are gaining attention worldwide,with an increasing number of people relying on them to connect,communicate and share their daily pertinent event-related information.Event detection is now increasingly leveraging online social networks for highlighting events happening around the world via the Internet of People.In this paper,a novel Event Detection model based on Scoring and Word Embedding(ED-SWE)is proposed for discovering key events from a large volume of data streams of tweets and for generating an event summary using keywords and top-k tweets.The proposed ED-SWE model can distill high-quality tweets,reduce the negative impact of the advent of spam,and identify latent events in the data streams automatically.Moreover,a word embedding algorithm is used to learn a real-valued vector representation for a predefined fixed-sized vocabulary from a corpus of Twitter data.In order to further improve the performance of the Expectation-Maximization(EM)iteration algorithm,a novel initialization method based on the authority values of the tweets is also proposed in this paper to detect live events efficiently and precisely.Finally,a novel automatic identification method based on the cosine measure is used to automatically evaluate whether a given topic can form a live event.Experiments conducted on a real-world dataset demonstrate that the ED-SWE model exhibits better efficiency and accuracy than several state-of-art event detection models.
