In this study, we reexamined their relationships with seven speeds by a simple character discrimination task using an infrared eye tracker. Our results found that the pursuit velocity and accuracy were non-linearly related with the target velocity. Besides, the perceptual sensitivity was not linearly related with the pursuit velocity either. A significant difference existed between lower （less than 20 deg/s） and higher speeds （greater than 20 deg/s）. In addition, we found there was no position bias of visual sensitivity between ahead of and behind the pursuit target, but there was a significant perceptual dissymmetry between horizontal and vertical directions at lower pursuit speeds.展开更多

Compared with state-of-the-art greedy algorithms, the proposed algorithm incorporates the restricted isometry property and variable step-size, which is utilized for sparsity estimation and reduces the reconstruction time, respectively. Based on the sparsity estimation, the initial value including sparsity level and support set is computed at the beginning of the reconstruction, which provides preliminary sparsity information for signal reconstruction. Then, the residual and correlation are calculated according to the initial value and the support set is refined at the next iteration associated with variable step-size and backtracking. Finally, the correct support set is obtained when the halting condition is reached and the original signal is reconstructed accurately. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm improves the recovery performance and considerably outperforms the existing algorithm in terms of the running time in sparse signal reconstruction.展开更多

On the basis of a novel HP three-dimensional guidance model, a nonlinear variable structure guidance law is presented by using Lyapunov stability theory. The guidance law positions the interceptor ahead of the target on its tlight trajectory, and the speed of the interceptor is required to be lower than that of the target, A numerical example of maneuvering ballistic target interception verifies the rightness of the guidance model and the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

In order to overcome this issues the projection pursuit principle is introduced into water quality assessment, and projection pursuit cluster(PPC) model is developed in this study. The PPC model makes the transition from high dimension to one-dimension. In other words, based on the PPC model, multifactor problem can be converted to one factor problem. The application of PPC model can be divided into four parts: (1) to estimate projection index function Q(); (2) to find the right projection direction ; (3) to calculate projection characteristic value of the i th sample z-i, and (4) to draw comprehensive analysis on the basis of z-i. On the other hand, the empirical formula of cutoff radius R is developed, which is benefit for the model to be used in practice. Finally, a case study of water quality assessment is proposed in this paper. The results showed that the PPC model is reasonable, and it is more objective and less subjective in water quality assessment. It is a new method for multivariate problem comprehensive analysis.展开更多
