Compared with the maximum entropy PDFs presented previously, the new PDF has the following merits: (1) it has four parameters to be determined and hence can give more refined fit to observed data and has wider suitability for nonlinear waves in different conditions; (2) these parameters are expressed in terms of distribution moments of X in a relatively simple form and hence are easy to be determined from observed data; (3) the PDF is free of the restriction of weak nonlinearity and possible to be used for sea waves in complicated conditions, such as those in shallow waters with complicated topography; and (4) the PDF is simple in form and hence convenient for theoretical and practical uses. l.aboratory wind-wave experiments have been conducted to test the competence of the new PDF for the surface elevation of nonlinear waves. The experimental results manifest that the new PDF gives somewhat better fit to the laboratory wind-wave data than the well-known Gram-Charlier PDF and beta PDF.展开更多

The main points of the method are as follows: (1) based on the Hamiltonian principle, a maximum entropy probability density function for the extreme waveheight H, f(H)=αHγ e -βH4 is derived from a Lagrangian function subject to some necessary and rational constraints; (2) the parameters α, β, and γ in the function are expressed in terms of the mean , variance V= (H-)2 and bias B= (H-)3 ; and (3) with , V and B estimated from observed data, the n -year return-period wave height H n is computed in accordance with the formula 11-F(H n)=n , where F(H n) is defined as F(H n)=∫ H n 0f(H) d H. Examples of estimating the 50 and 100-year return period waveheights by the present method and by some currently used method from observed data acquired from two hydrographic stations are given. A comparison of the estimated results shows that the present method is superior to the others.展开更多

The traditional gravity model implies the hypothesis of equilibrium points without any reference to when or how to achieve it. In this paper, a dynamic gravity model was established based on the Maximum Entropy(MaxEnt) theory to estimate and monitor the interconnection intensity and dynamic characters of bilateral relations. In order to detect the determinants of interconnection intensity, a Geodetector method was applied to identify and evaluate the determinants of spatial networks in five dimensions. The empirical study clearly demonstrates a heterogeneous and non-circular spatial structure. The main driving forces of spatial-temporal evolution are foreign direct investment, tourism and railway infrastructure construction, while determinants in different sub-regions show obvious spatial differentiation. Southeast Asian countries are typically multi-island area where aviation infrastructure plays a more important role. North and Central Asian countries regard oil as a pillar industry where power and port facilities have a greater impact on the interconnection. While Western Asian countries are mostly influenced by the railway infrastructure, Eastern European countries already have relatively robust infrastructure where tariff policies provide a greater impetus.展开更多

The present PDF, being a non-Rayleigh form, involves two parameters: the average wave height H— and the state parameter γ. The role of γ in the distribution of wave heights is examined. It is found that γ may be a certain measure of sea state. A least square method for determining γ from measured data is proposed. In virtue of the method, the values of γ are determined for three sea states from the data measured in the East China Sea. The present PDF is compared with the well known Rayleigh PDF of wave height and it is shown that it much better fits the data than the Rayleigh PDF. It is expected that the present PDF would fit some other wave variables, since its derivation is not restricted only to the wave height.展开更多

The Toeplitz equation and Levinson algorithm are used to calculate the iterative formula of error-predicting filter, and receiver function is then estimated. During extrapolation, reflective coefficient is always less than 1, which keeps maximum entropy deconvolution stable. The maximum entropy of the data outside window increases the resolution of receiver function. Both synthetic and real seismograms show that maximum entropy deconvolution is an effective method to measure receiver function in time-domain.展开更多

Compared with the Chang'e-1 orbiter, the Chang'e-2 orbiter obtained more accurate and comprehensive microwave brightness temperature data, which are helpful for further research. Since there is a close relationship between mi- crowave brightness temperature data and some related properties of the lunar regolith, such as the thickness, temperature and dielectric constant, precise and high resolution brightness temperature data are necessary for such research. However, through the detection mechanism of the microwave sounder, the brightness temperature data ac- quired from the microwave sounder are weighted by the antenna radiation pattern, so the data are the convolution of the antenna radiation pattern with the lunar brightness temperature. In order to obtain the real lunar brightness temperature, a deconvolution method is needed. The aim of this paper is to solve the problem associated with per- forming deconvolution of the lunar brightness temperature. In this study, we introduce the maximum entropy method (MEM) to process the brightness temperature data and achieve excellent results. The paper mainly includes the following aspects: first, we introduce the principle of the MEM; second, through a series of simulations, the MEM has been verified as an efficient deconvolution method; and third, the MEM is used to process the Chang'e-2 microwave data and the results are significant.展开更多

Experiments show that the scour process takes place in two stages: the initial rapid scour and the subsequent gradual scour development stage. An empirical formula for calculating the equilibrium scour depth(the maximum scour depth) is developed by using the regression method. This formula together with the maximum entropy theory can be applied to establish a formula to predict the scour process for given water depth, diameter of pipeline and flow velocity. Good agreement between the predicted and measured scour depth is obtained.展开更多

H. ligniperda mainly infests Pinus species, and can cause severe weakness and even death of the host through its boring activity;it can also be a vector of various pathogenic fungi. This study was conducted to investigate the environmental variables limiting the distribution of H. ligniperda and the change trend of its suitable areas under climate change.Results: We used a maximum entropy model to predict the potential geographical distribution of H. ligniperda on a global scale under near current and future climatic scenarios using its occurrence data and environmental variables. The result shows that the areas surrounding the Mediterranean region, the eastern coastal areas of Asia, and the southeastern part of Oceania are highly suitable for H. ligniperda. The environmental variables with the greatest effect on the distribution of H. ligniperda were determined using the jackknife method and Pearson’s correlation analysis and included the monthly average maximum temperature in April, precipitation of driest quarter, the monthly average minimum temperature in December, precipitation of coldest quarter, mean temperature of driest quarter and mean diurnal range.Conclusions: Excessive precipitation in winter and low temperatures in spring had a great effect on the distribution of H. ligniperda. The potential geographical distribution of H. ligniperda was predicted to change under future climatic conditions compared with near current climate conditions. Highly suitable areas, moderately suitable areas and low suitable areas were predicted to increase by 59.99%, 44.43% and 22.92%, respectively, under the2081–2100 ssp245 scenario.展开更多

The vector space model was adopted for data presentation. The minimal entropy partitioning method was utilized for attribute diseretization. Experiments on the KDD CUP 1999 standard data set were designed and the experimental results were shown. The receiver operating eharaeteristie(ROC) curve analysis approach was utilized to analyze the experimental results. The analysis results show that the proposed approach is comparable to those based on support vector maehine(SVM) and outperforms those based on C4.5 and Naive Bayes classifiers. According to the overall evaluation result, the proposed approach is a little better than those based on SVM.展开更多

The density function can be easily extended to higher order according to demand and is non-negative everywhere, satisfying the basic behavior of the probability, Moreover because the distribution is derived without any assumption about sea waves, it is found from comparison with several accepted distributions that the new form of distribution can be applied in a wider range of wave conditions, In addition, the density function can be used to fit some observed distributions of surface vertical acceleration although something remains unsolved.展开更多

The environmental variables with the greatest effect on the distribution of H. ligniperda were determined using the jackknife method and Pearson’s correlation analysis and included the monthly average maximum temperature in April, precipitation of driest quarter, the monthly average minimum temperature in December, precipitation of coldest quarter, mean temperature of driest quarter and mean diurnal range.Conclusions: Excessive precipitation in winter and low temperatures in spring had a great effect on the distribution of H. ligniperda. The potential geographical distribution of H. ligniperda was predicted to change under future climatic conditions compared with near current climate conditions. Highly suitable areas, moderately suitable areas and low suitable areas were predicted to increase by 59.99%, 44.43% and 22.92%, respectively, under the2081–2100 ssp245 scenario.

文摘The maximum entropy model was introduced and a new intrusion detection approach based on the maximum entropy model was proposed. The vector space model was adopted for data presentation. The minimal entropy partitioning method was utilized for attribute diseretization. Experiments on the KDD CUP 1999 standard data set were designed and the experimental results were shown. The receiver operating eharaeteristie(ROC) curve analysis approach was utilized to analyze the experimental results. The analysis results show that the proposed approach is comparable to those based on support vector maehine(SVM) and outperforms those based on C4.5 and Naive Bayes classifiers. According to the overall evaluation result, the proposed approach is a little better than those based on SVM.

文摘In view of the problem of fine characterization of narrow and thin channels,the maximum entropy criterion is used to enhance the focusing characteristics of Wigner-Ville Distribution.On the basis of effectively improving the time-frequency resolution of seismic signal,a new method of microscopic ancient river channel identification is established.Based on the principle of the equivalence between the maximum entropy power spectrum and the AR model power spectrum,the prediction error and the autoregression coefficient of AR model are obtained using the Burg algorithm and Levinson-Durbin recurrence rule.Under the condition of the first derivative of autocorrelation function being 0,the Wigner-Ville Distribution of seismic signal is calculated,and the Wigner-Ville Distribution time-frequency power spectrum(MEWVD)is obtained under the maxi-mum entropy criterion of the microscopic ancient river channel.Through analysis of emulational seismic signal and forward numerical simulation signal of narrow thin model,it is found that MEWVD can effectively avoid the interference of cross term of Wigner-Ville Distribution,and obtain more accurate spectral characteristics than STFT and CWT signal analysis methods.It is also proved that the narrow and thin river channels of different scales can be identified effectively by MEWVD of different frequencies.The method is applied to the third member of Jurassic Shaximiao Formation(J2s33-2)gas reservoir of the Zhongji-ang gas field in Sichuan Basin.The spatial information of width and direction of narrow and thin river channels with width less than 500 m and sandstone thickness less than 35 m is accurately identified,providing bases for well deployment and horizontal well fracturing section selection.
文摘Experiments clarified that application of the maximum entropy method to calculate the RDF (radial distribution function)of the Ni-P amorphous alloy from fewer data of its X-ray diffraction data shows a higher resolution and good consistent with known results.It is be- lieved that this method is available for the analysis of amorphous structure.

文摘A probability density function of surface elevation is obtained through improvement of the method introduced by Cieslikiewicz who employed the maximum entropy principle to investigate the surface elevation distribution. The density function can be easily extended to higher order according to demand and is non-negative everywhere, satisfying the basic behavior of the probability, Moreover because the distribution is derived without any assumption about sea waves, it is found from comparison with several accepted distributions that the new form of distribution can be applied in a wider range of wave conditions, In addition, the density function can be used to fit some observed distributions of surface vertical acceleration although something remains unsolved.
文摘Necessity of XPS spectrum deconvolution, disadvantages of the traditional Fast Fourier Transform decon-volution method (FFT) , principle, method and advantages of Maximum Entropy Deconvolution Method (MEM) are de-scribed. Criteria for determing the number of data points sam-pled in MEM are the main point disccussed in the paper,some XPS deconvolution applications of our MEM software show that the MEM makes XPS deconvolution much easier than the traditional FFT method.
