Multi-Energy Gamma-Ray Attenuations for Non-Destructive Detection of Hazardous Materials

We present a non-destructive method (NDM) to identify minute quantities of high atomic number (Z) elements in containers such as passenger baggage, goods carrying transport trucks, and environmental samples. This method relies on the fact that photon attenuation varies with its energy and properties of the absorbing medium. Low-energy gamma-ray intensity loss is sensitive to the atomic number of the absorbing medium, while that of higher-energies vary with the density of the medium. To verify the usefulness of this feature for NDM, we carried out simultaneous measurements of intensities of multiple gamma rays of energies 81 to 1408 keV emitted by sources 133Ba (half-life = 10.55 y) and 152Eu (half-life = 13.52 y). By this arrangement, we could detect minute quantities of lead and copper in a bulk medium from energy dependent gamma-ray attenuations. It seems that this method will offer a reliable, low-cost, low-maintenance alternative to X-ray or accelerator-based techniques for the NDM of high-Z materials such as mercury, lead, uranium, and transuranic elements etc.

Mass spectrometry detection of basic drugs in fast chiral analyses with vancomycin stationary phases

Current trends in chiral analysis of pharmaceutical drugs are focused on faster separations and higher separation efficiencies, Core-shell or superficially porous particles （SPP） based chiral stationary phases （CSPs） provide reduced analysis times while maintaining high column efficiencies and sensitivity. In this study, mobile phase conditions suitable for chiral analyses with electrospray ionization LC-MS were systematically investigated using vancomycin as a representative CSP. The performance of a 2.7 μm SPP based vancomycin CSP （SPP-V） 10 cm ×0.21 cm column was compared to that of a corresponding 5 μm fully porous particles based analogue column. The results demonstrated that the SPP-V column provides higher efficiencies, 2-5 time greater sensitivity and shorter analysis time for a set of 22 basic pharma- ceutical drugs. The SPP-V was successfully applied for the analysis of the degradation products of racemic citalopram whose enantiomers could be selectively identified by MS.

Fast Rate Fault Detection Filter for Multirate Sampled-data Systems

This paper focuses on the fast rate fault detection filter (FDF) problem for a class of multirate sampled-data (MSD) systems. A lifting technique is used to convert such an MSD system into a linear time-invariant discrete-time one and an unknown input observer (UIO) is considered as FDF to generate residual. The design of FDF is formulated as an H∞ optimization problem and a solvable condition as well as an optimal solution are derived. The causality of the residual generator can be guaranteed so that the fast rate residual can be implemented via inverse lifting. A numerical example is included to demonstrate the feasibility of the obtained results.

Unit panel node detection by CNN on FAST reflector

The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST) has an active reflector.During observations, the reflector will be deformed into a paraboloid 300 meters in diameter. To improve its surface accuracy, we propose a scheme for photogrammetry to measure the positions of 2226 nodes on the reflector. The way to detect the nodes in the photos is the key problem in this application of photogrammetry. This paper applies a convolutional neural network(CNN) with candidate regions to detect the nodes in the photos. Experimental results show a high recognition rate of 91.5%, which is much higher than the recognition rate for traditional edge detection.

Enhancing the Accuracy for Target Detection by Using Fast Orthogonal Search (FOS)

Target detection and bearing estimation are mainly obtained through spectral analysis of received signals. The detection performance of the periodogram and its variants methods is evaluated. The variants methods Performance evaluation through the Receiver Operating Characteristics （ROCs） are presented and compared from the viewpoint of probability of detection （Pd）, probability of false alarm （Pfa） by computer simulation. When the sinusoid frequency does not correspond to one of the spectral bins （mid-bin frequency situation）, the performance of all the mentioned detectors degrades. This research investigates the development of a bearing estimation method using Fast Orthogonal Search （FOS） to enhance spectral estimation which, improves both target detection and bearing estimation in case of low SNR inputs.

As one of the most important tumor-associated antigens of colorectal adenocarcinoma, the carcinoembryonic antigen （CEA） threatens human health seriously ali over the globe. Fast electrical and highly sensitive detection of the CEA with A1GaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor is demonstrated experimentally.

The drain-source current shows a c/ear increase of 11.5μA under this bias.

A Study on Fast and Robust Vanishing Point Detection System Using Fast M-Estimation Method and Regional Division for In-vehicle Camera

The vanishing point detection technology helps automatic driving. In this paper, the straight lines on the road associated with the vanishing point are extracted efficiently by using the regional division and angle limitation. And, the vanishing point is detected robustly by using the fast M-estimation method.

And the vanishing point was detected exactly by the effect of the fast M-estimation method when the straight-line features not associated with vanishing point detection were detected. The processing time of the proposed method was faster than the camera flame rate （30 fps）. Thus, the proposed method is capable of real-time processing.

A novel 4D resolution imaging method for low and medium atomic number objects at the centimeter scale by coincidence detection technique of cosmic-ray muon and its secondary particles

The muon radiography imaging technique for high-atomic-number objects(Z)and large-volume objects via muon transmission imaging and muon multiple scattering imaging remains a popular topic in the field of radiation detection imaging.However,few imaging studies have been reported on low and medium Z objects at the centimeter scale.This paper presents an imaging system that consists of three layers of a position-sensitive detector and four plastic scintillation detectors.It acquires data by coincidence detection technique of cosmic-ray muon and its secondary particles.A 3D imaging algorithm based on the density of the coinciding muon trajectory was developed,and 4D imaging that takes the atomic number dimension into account by considering the secondary particle ratio information was achieved.The resultant reconstructed 3D images could distinguish between a series of cubes with 5-mm-side lengths and 2-mm-intervals.If the imaging time is more than 20 days,this method can distinguish intervals with a width of 1 mm.The 4D images can specify target objects with low,medium,and high Z values.
