A Study of Mathematic Model to the Development of Regional Industry Cluster

This paper analyzes the factors that influence the development of regional industry cluster, which are location factors, accumulatable factors, and external factors. Then regarding the similarity between the development of industry cluster and biology community, a modified logistic model is built, and a field study is made between the real instances and the model.

A Review on Clustering Methods for Climatology Analysis and Its Application over South America

South America’s climatic diversity is a product of its vast geographical expanse, encompassing tropical to subtropical latitudes. The variations in precipitation and temperature across the region stem from the influence of distinct atmospheric systems. While some studies have characterized the prevailing systems over South America, they often lacked the utilization of statistical techniques for homogenization. On the other hand, other research has employed multivariate statistical methods to identify homogeneous regions regarding temperature and precipitation, but their focus has been limited to specific areas, such as the south, southeast, and northeast. Surprisingly, there is a lack of work that compares various multivariate statistical techniques to determine homogeneous regions across the entirety of South America concerning temperature and precipitation. This paper aims to address this gap by comparing three such techniques: Cluster Analysis (K-means and Ward) and Self Organizing Maps, using data from different sources for temperature (ERA5, ERA5-Land, and CRU) and precipitation (ERA5, ERA5-Land, and CPC). Spatial patterns and time series were generated for each region over the period 1981-2010. The results from this analysis of spatially homogeneous regions concerning temperature and precipitation have the potential to significantly benefit climate analysis and forecasts. Moreover, they can offer valuable insights for various climatological studies, guiding decision-making processes in diverse fields that rely on climate information, such as agriculture, disaster management, and water resources planning.

An Overview of Non.Stationary Property for Massive MIMO Channel Modeling

Massive multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)emerges as one of the most promising technologies for 5G mobile communication systems.Compared to the conventional MIMO channel models,channel researches and measurements show that significant nonstationary properties rise in massive MIMO channels.Therefore,an accurate channel model is indispensable for the sake of massive MIMO system design and performance evaluation.This article presents an overview of methods of modeling non-stationary properties on both the array and time axes,which are mainly divided into two major categories:birth-death(BD)process and cluster visibility region(VR)method.The main concepts and theories are described,together with useful implementation guidelines.In conclusion,a comparison between these two methods is made.

Automatic Video Segmentation Algorithm by Background Model and Color Clustering

In order to detect the object in video efficiently, an automatic and real time video segmentation algorithm based on background model and color clustering is proposed. This algorithm consists of four phases: background restoration, moving objects extract, moving objects region clustering and post processing. The threshold of the background restoration is not given in advanced. It can be gotten automatically. And a new object region cluster algorithm based on background model and color clustering to remove significance noise is proposed. An efficient method of eliminating shadow is also used. This approach was compared with other methods on pixel error ratio. The experiment result indicates the algorithm is correct and efficient.

French Spine Surgery Society guidelines for management of spinal surgeries during COVID-19 pandemic

Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)in December 2019 in China,various measures have been adopted in order to attenuate the impact of the virus on the population.With regard to spine surgery,French physicians are devoted to take place in the national plan against COVID-19,the French Spine Surgery Society therefore decided to elaborate specific guidelines for management of spinal disorders during COVID-19 pandemic in order to prioritize management of patients.A three levels stratification was elaborated with Level I:Urgent surgical indications,Level II:Surgical indications associated to a potential loss of chance for the patient and Level III:Non-urgent surgical indications.We also report French experience in a COVID-19 cluster region illustrated by two clinical cases.We hope that the guidelines formulated by the French Spine Surgery Society and the experience of spine surgeons from a cluster region will be helpful in order optimizing the management of patients with urgent spinal conditions during the pandemic.

Genetic climatic regionalization of the Balkan Peninsula using cluster analysis

Sea Level Pressure（SLP） data for the period 1950–2012 at 61 stations located in or around the Balkan Peninsula was used. The main concept is that intra-annual course of SLP represents the best different air masses that are situated over the Balkan Peninsula during the year. The method for differentiation of climatic zones is cluster analysis. A hierarchical clustering technique–average linkage between groups with Pearson correlation for measurement of intervals was employed in the research. The climate of the Balkan Peninsula is transitional between oceanic and continental and also between subtropical and temperate climates. Several major changes in atmospheric circulation over the Balkan Peninsula have happened over the period 1950–2012. There is a serious increase of the influence of the Azores High in the period January–Marchwhich leads to an increase of SLP and enhances oceanic influence. There is an increase of the influence of the north-west extension of the monsoonal low in the period June–September. This leads to more continental climatebut also to more tropical air masses over the Balkan Peninsula. Accordinglythe extent of subtropical climate widens in northern direction. There is an increase of the influence of the Siberian High in the period October–December. This influence covers central and eastern part of the peninsula in October and Novemberand it reaches western parts in December. Thusthe climate becomes more continental.
