Effective method to obtain high quality soil map is therefore important for both soil science research and soil work ability improvement. However,traditional method such as digging soil pits is destructive and time-consuming. In this study, the structure of headwater hillslopes from Hemuqiao catchment(Taihu Basin, China) have been analyzed both by indirect(ground penetrating radar, GPR) and direct(excavation or soil auger) methods. Four transects at different locations of hillslopes in the catchment were selected for GPR survey. Three of them(#1, #2, and #3) were excavated to obtain fullscale soil information for interpreting radar images.We found that the most distinct boundary that can be detected by GPR is the boundary between soil and underlain bedrock. In some cases(e.g., 8-17 m in transect #2), in which the in situ soil was scarcely affected by colluvial process, different soil layers can be identified. This identification process utilized the sensitive of GPR to capture abrupt changes of soil characteristics in layer boundaries, e.g., surface organic layer(layer #1) and bamboo roots layer(layer#2, contain stone fragments), illuvial deposits layer(layer #3) and regolith layer(layer #4). However, in areas where stone fragments were irregularly distributed in the soil profile(highly affected bycolluvial and/or fluvial process), it was possible to distinguish which part contains more stone fragments in soil profile on the basis of reflection density(transect #3). Transect #4(unexcavated) was used to justify the GPR method for soil survey based on experiences from former transects. After that, O horizon thickness was compared by a hand auger.This work has demonstrated that GPR images can be of a potential data source for hydrological predictions.展开更多

However, producing too many false alarms in GPSAR landmine detection is a major challenge in practical applications of GPSAR. Support Vector Machine (SVM), employing structural risk minimization theory, does not need large amounts of training data, which makes it suitable for solving the landmine detection problem. In this paper, a novel SVM with a hypersphere instead of a hyperplane classification boundary is proposed for landmine detection in GPSAR. The HyperSphere-SVM (HS-SVM) can be trained with both landmine and clutter data, or with landmine data only, which are called the two-class HS-SVM and the one-class HS-SVM, respectively. The HS-SVM has better generalization capability than the traditional HyperPlane-SVM (HP-SVM) with respect to varying operating conditions. Quantitative comparisons have been made using real data collected with the rail-GPSAR landmine detection system, which show that both the two-class and the one-class HS-SVMs have better detection performance than the HP-SVM.展开更多

In general, natural and artificial cavities represent an important investigation target in geotechnical, environmental and scientific studies. These studies could be engineering, archaeological or speleological. For the detection and localization of such cavities during the last 20 years, several geophysical studies have been used worldwide. In this field study, several geophysical methods could be used such as electrical, electromagnetic, gravimetric and seismic ones. Now days, the ground penetrating radar technique and ERT are widely used. Depending on geological formation conditions every used method is more or less effective. As a result of actual conditions of works on ore mines, the dynamic regime of the surroundings areas has undergone changes creating superficial cavities and funnels and as consequence the geological risk to the community is present. The detection of cavities is a challenge for geophysicists and in these cases the ambiguity on interpretation of geophysical data has to be solved properly. The simultaneous application of different geophysical methods and monitoring in time are necessary in order that the field data interpretation could be significant. Geophysical investigations were carried out as tests over galleries of ore mines of Albania. In this study, we present the SP and ERT results in two sites, in Dhrovjan and Perrenjas region. The effectiveness of the used geophysical methods was present.展开更多
