Hence RMB equilibrium exchange rate may be estimated by use of the method of exchange rate target zone model. At present,the sticky-price model is one of best models,and it is a extension of flex-price model. The model is based on assumptions of price inertia and output decided by demand. Under those assumptions and the condition of the commodity and the currency market equilibrium,a stochastic differential equation may be established,and in the light of the equation,we may get a exchange rate function. Our research indicates a good outcome may be made,applying the sticky-price model to estimate RMB equilibrium exchange rate.展开更多

Generally, the region-information-based approach is sensitive to illumination changes and small movement in the background, while the edge-information-based approach often obtains incorrect results for ambiguous images. The two types of information are introduced in computing the image force. Edge-information-based features make the algorithm fast and robust, and region information makes the active confour energy function obtains correct results for ambiguous images. Furthermore, an automatic contour initialization method using double difference images is given to meet the requirement of video sequence tracking. Meanwhile, a simple forecast section is added to estimate the position of the contour in the algorithm so that it can improve the convergence speed of the active contour. Experimental results show that the computation time of the algorithm is less than 0.1 s/frame. And it can be applied to a real-time system.展开更多

First, a Cartesian-coordinate based variable rate model is presented. Compared with conventional variable rate models, the proposed model does not need any prior knowledge of target mass or external forces. Consequently, it is more convenient in practical tracking applications. Second, a maneuvering detection strategy is adopted to adaptively adjust the parameters in MVRPF, which helps allocate more state points at high maneuver regions and fewer at smooth regions. Third, in the presence of small measurement errors, the unscented particle filter, which is embedded in MVRPF, can move more particles into regions of high likelihood and hence can improve the tracking performance. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

With the targets set out in the Plan of Newly Increasing Yield （NIY） of 10×1011 Jin （1 kg=2 Jin） from 2009 to 2020, the immediate question for the Songhua River Region （SHRR） is whether water is sufficient to support the required yield increase. Very few studies have considered to what degree this plan influences the solution of WRA and how to adapt. This paper used a multi-objective programming model for WRA across the Harbin region located in the SHRR in 2020 and 2030 （p=75%）. The Harbin region can be classified into four types of sub-regions according to WRA： Type I is Harbin city zone. With rapid urbanization, Harbin city zone has the highest risk of agricultural water shortage. Considering the severe situation, there is little space for Harbin city zone to reach the NIY goal. Type II is sub-regions including Wuchang, Shangzhi and Binxian. There are some agricultural water shortage risks in this type region. Because the water shortage is relatively small, it is possible to increase agricultural production through strengthening agricultural water-saving countermeasures and constructing water conservation facilities. Type III is sub-regions including Acheng, Hulan, Mulan and Fangzheng. In this type region, there may be a water shortage if the rate of urbanization accelerates. According to local conditions, it is needed to enhance water-saving countermeasures to increase agricultural production to a certain degree. Type IV is sub-regions including Shuangcheng, Bayan, Yilan, Yanshou and Tonghe. There are good water conditions for the extensive development of agriculture. Nevertheless, in order to ensure an increase in agricultural production, it is necessary to enhance the way in which water is utilized and consider soil resources. These results will help decision makers make a scientific NIY plan for the Harbin region for sustainable utilization of regional water resources and an increase in agricultural production.展开更多
