The multiuser(MU) detection in PQSM system is investigated in this paper. Based on the known channel state information, pre-coding matrix is designed to pre-process the in-phase and quadrature signals of quadrature spatial modulation(QSM) to reduce the inter-channel interference. In order to lower the complexity at the receiver brought by the orthogonality of the PQSM system, an orthogonal matching pursuit(OMP) detection algorithm and a reconstructed model are proposed. The analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain a similar bit error rate(BER) performance as the maximum likelihood(ML) detection algorithm with more than 80% reduction of complexity.展开更多

An important feature of the methods studied here is that we assume the availability of a description, representation, of the objects being considered for recommendation. The approaches studied here differ from collaborative filtering in that we only use preferences information from the individual for whom we are providing the recommendation and make no use the preferences of other collaborators. We provide a detailed discussion of the construction of the representation schema used. We consider two sources of information about the users preferences. The first are direct statements about the type of objects the user likes. The second source of information comes from ratings of objects which the user has experienced.展开更多

The current state-of-the-art is based on the long-running observation records of the meteorological stations. However, it is common for the developing states to have only relatively short and/or intermittent record histories. The issue becomes even more aggravated under an effort to assess the climatic trends for specific territories with few meteorological stations. The paper offers a simple and effective technique to handle the climate observations; the technique makes the most complete use of an available data set by counting the data provided by all meteorological stations including those with short records and omissions. The method is based on numeric differentiation of source data samples.展开更多

Extensive studies have been devoted in boosting the performance of BFS. As the most effective solution, GPU-acceleration achieves the state-of-the-art result of 3.3×109 traversed edges per second on a NVIDIA Tesla C2050 GPU. A novel vertex frontier based GPU BFS algorithm is proposed, and its main features are three-fold. Firstly, to obtain a better workload balance for irregular graphs, a virtual-queue task decomposition and mapping strategy is introduced for vertex frontier expanding. Secondly, a global deduplicate detection scheme is proposed to remove reduplicative vertices from vertex frontier effectively. Finally, a GPU-based bottom-up BFS approach is employed to process large frontier. The experimental results demonstrate that the algorithm can achieve 10% improvement over the state-of-the-art method on diverse graphs. Especially, it exhibits 2-3 times speedup on low-diameter and scale-free graphs over the state-of-the-art on a NVIDIA Tesla K20 c GPU, reaching a peak traversal rate of 11.2×109 edges/s.展开更多
