The application of Gaussian distribution deconvolution method to separate the overlapping signals in the 2D NMR map

The 2D NMR(T_(1)-T_(2))mapping technique,which can be used to separate different proton populations from various sources(hydroxyls,solid organic matter,free water,and free HC)has gained attention in petroleum industry.To separate proton contributions,a fixed straight line is commonly employed to separate different regions representing proton sources on the map.However,some of these regions(Region 1 and 2)might overlap which makes extracting the NMR signal amplitude from these regions inaccurate.In order to solve this issue,in this study,we applied the Gaussian distribution deconvolution method to separate the T_(1)and T_(2)relaxation distributions and then derived the signal amplitude of each region instead of following the common fixed line approach.Next,we employed this method to analyze several shale samples from the literature and compared the results following both methods to verify our methodology.Finally,samples from the Bakken Shale were studied to separate signals from Region 1 and Region 2 and corelated the results with geochemical properties that were obtained from programmed(Rock Eval)pyrolysis.Results demonstrated an improvement in their relation when our approach is employed compared to the fixed line technique to differentiate signal from overlapping regions.This means the Gaussian distribution deconvolution method can be used with confidence to provide us with more accurate petrophysical and geochemical understanding of complex formations.

Particle size spatial distribution in landslide dams

The particle composition and spatial distribution of landslide-induced dam bodies are critical geotechnical parameters for studying the hazards of dam-break floods.However,current research often neglects the influence of the initial particle composition and spatial distribution of the landslide on the particle composition and spatial distribution of the landslide dam.This study investigated the impact of initial particle size distribution,volume,and sliding length on the energy and velocity changes of characteristic particles during the sliding process and the spatial distribution of particle sizes in the landslide dam body.Numerical simulations and physical models were employed to examine the effects of sequential gradient arrangements(where particle sizes decrease from top to bottom)and four other different initial particle arrangements on the energy and velocity changes of particles and the spatial distribution of particle sizes in the dam body.The study reveals the characteristics of translational and rotational energy of different particles and the laws of mechanical energy conversion,obtaining the spatial distribution patterns of particle sizes in landslide-induced dams.The results show that under the sequential gradient arrangement,the energy dissipation of the landslide movement is lower,with larger particles mainly distributed at the distal end and smaller particles at the proximal end of the landslide dam.In contrast,under the reverse gradient arrangement,the energy dissipation of the landslide movement is higher,and the distribution pattern of the dam particles is opposite to that of the sequential gradient arrangement.For the other arrangement modes,the spatial distribution of dam particles falls between the aforementioned two.There is a positive correlation between particle size and translational kinetic energy within the particle flow during the landslide process,and rotational motion increases energy dissipation.Under constant slope conditions,sliding length does not affect the movement pattern of the particle flow or the spatial distribution of particles in the dam body.The findings of this study provide a scientific basis for the accurate simulation and prediction of dam-break flood processes.

A Gaussian Noise-Based Algorithm for Enhancing Backdoor Attacks

Deep Neural Networks(DNNs)are integral to various aspects of modern life,enhancing work efficiency.Nonethe-less,their susceptibility to diverse attack methods,including backdoor attacks,raises security concerns.We aim to investigate backdoor attack methods for image categorization tasks,to promote the development of DNN towards higher security.Research on backdoor attacks currently faces significant challenges due to the distinct and abnormal data patterns of malicious samples,and the meticulous data screening by developers,hindering practical attack implementation.To overcome these challenges,this study proposes a Gaussian Noise-Targeted Universal Adversarial Perturbation(GN-TUAP)algorithm.This approach restricts the direction of perturbations and normalizes abnormal pixel values,ensuring that perturbations progress as much as possible in a direction perpendicular to the decision hyperplane in linear problems.This limits anomalies within the perturbations improves their visual stealthiness,and makes them more challenging for defense methods to detect.To verify the effectiveness,stealthiness,and robustness of GN-TUAP,we proposed a comprehensive threat model.Based on this model,extensive experiments were conducted using the CIFAR-10,CIFAR-100,GTSRB,and MNIST datasets,comparing our method with existing state-of-the-art attack methods.We also tested our perturbation triggers using various defense methods and further experimented on the robustness of the triggers against noise filtering techniques.The experimental outcomes demonstrate that backdoor attacks leveraging perturbations generated via our algorithm exhibit cross-model attack effectiveness and superior stealthiness.Furthermore,they possess robust anti-detection capabilities and maintain commendable performance when subjected to noise-filtering methods.

Estimation of Hourly and Daily Global Solar Radiation at Clear Days Using an Approach Based on Modified Version of Gaussian Distribution

The performance of two models,Jam and Baig,based on the modified version of Gaussian distribution function in estimating the daily total of global solar radiation and its distribution through the hours of the day from sunrise to sunset al any clear day is evaluated with our own measured data in the period from June 1992 to May 1993 in Qena Egypt The results show a high relative deviation of calculated values from measured ones,especially for Jain model,in the most hours of the day,except for those near to local noon.This misfit behavior is quite obvious in the early morning and late afternoon A new approach has been proposed in this paper to estimate the daily and hourly global solar radiation This model performs with very high accuracy on the recorded data in our region.The validity of this approach was verified with new measurements in some clear days in June and August 1994.The resultant very low relative deviation of the calculated values of global solar radiation from the measured ones confirms the high performance of the approach proposed in this work

LEAST SQUARES TYPE ESTIMATION FOR DISCRETELY OBSERVED NON-ERGODIC GAUSSIAN ORNSTEIN-UHLENBECK PROCESSES

In this article, we consider the drift parameter estimation problem for the nonergodic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process defined as dXt = OXtdt + dGt, i > 0 with an unknown parameter θ> 0, where G is a Gaussian process. We assume that the process {xt,t≥ 0} is observed at discrete time instants t1=△n,…, tn = n△n, and we construct two least squares type estimators θn and θn for θ on the basis of the discrete observations ,{xti,i= 1,…, n} as →∞. Then, we provide sufficient conditions, based on properties of G, which ensure that θn and θn are strongly consistent and the sequences √n△n(θn-θ) and √n△n(θn-θ) are tight. Our approach offers an elementary proof of [11], which studied the case when G is a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H∈(1/2, 1). As such, our results extend the recent findings by [11] to the case of general Hurst parameter H∈(0,1). We also apply our approach to study subfractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and bifractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes.

Deterministic quantum key distribution based on Gaussian-modulated EPR correlations

This paper proposes a deterministic quantum key distribution scheme based on Gaussian-modulated continuous variable EPR correlations. This scheme can implement fast and efficient key distribution. The security is guaranteed by continuous variable EPR entanglement correlations produced by nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier. For general beam splitter eavesdropping strategy, the secret information rate ΔI = I（α, β）-I（α, ε） is calculated in view of Shannon information theory. Finally the security analysis is presented.

Derivation of Gaussian Probability Distribution: A New Approach

The famous de Moivre’s Laplace limit theorem proved the probability density function of Gaussian distribution from binomial probability mass function under specified conditions. De Moivre’s Laplace approach is cumbersome as it relies heavily on many lemmas and theorems. This paper invented an alternative and less rigorous method of deriving Gaussian distribution from basic random experiment conditional on some assumptions.

Mechanical properties of double-stranded DNA biofilm with Gaussian distribution

In microcantilever-based label-free biodetection technologies, deflection changes induced by adsorptions of double-stranded DNA （dsDNA） molecules on Au-layer surface are greatly affected by the mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of DNA biofilm. In this paper, the elastic properties of dsDNA biofilm are studied. First, the Parsegian＇s empirical potential based on a mesoscopic liq- uid crystal theory is employed to describe the interaction energy among coarse-grained DNA cylinders. Then, con- sidering a Gaussian distribution of DNA interaxial distance, the thought experiment method is used to derive an analyti- cal expression for Young＇s modulus of DNA biofilm with a stochastic packing pattern for the first time. Results show that Young＇s modulus of DNA biofilm is on the order of 10 MPa. These findings could provide a simple and effective method to evaluate the mechanical properties of soft biofilm on snbstrate.

Moved Score Confidence Intervals for Means of Discrete Distributions

Let X denote a discrete distribution as Poisson, binomial or negative binomial variable. The score confidence interval for the mean of X is obtained based on inverting the hypothesis test and the central limit theorem is discussed and recommended widely. But it has sharp downward spikes for small means. This paper proposes to move the score interval left a little (about 0.04 unit), called by moved score confidence interval. Numerical computation and Edgeworth expansion show that the moved score interval is analogous to the score interval completely and behaves better for moderate means;for small means the moved interval raises the infimum of the coverage probability and improves the sharp spikes significantly. Especially, it has unified explicit formulations to compute easily.

Gaussian process assisted coevolutionary estimation of distribution algorithm for computationally expensive problems

In order to reduce the computation of complex problems, a new surrogate-assisted estimation of distribution algorithm with Gaussian process was proposed. Coevolution was used in dual populations which evolved in parallel. The search space was projected into multiple subspaces and searched by sub-populations. Also, the whole space was exploited by the other population which exchanges information with the sub-populations. In order to make the evolutionary course efficient, multivariate Gaussian model and Gaussian mixture model were used in both populations separately to estimate the distribution of individuals and reproduce new generations. For the surrogate model, Gaussian process was combined with the algorithm which predicted variance of the predictions. The results on six benchmark functions show that the new algorithm performs better than other surrogate-model based algorithms and the computation complexity is only 10% of the original estimation of distribution algorithm.

Investigation of the inhomogeneous barrier height of an Au/Bi_4Ti_3O_(12)/n-Si structure through Gaussian distribution of barrier height

A Au/Bi4Ti3O12/n-Si structure is fabricated in order to investigate its current voltage （IV） characteristics in a temperature range of 300 K-400 K. Obtained I-V data are evaluated by the thermionic emission （TE） theory. Zero-bias barrier height （Ф0） and ideality factor （n） calculated from I-V characteristics, are found to be temperature-dependent such that ФB0 increases with temperature increasing, whereas n decreases. The obtained temperature dependence of ФB0 and linearity in ФB0 versus the n plot, together with a lower barrier height and Richardson constant values obtained from the Richardson plot, indicate that the barrier height of the structure is inhomogeneous in nature. Therefore, I-V characteristics are explained on the basis of Caussian distribution of barrier height.

What Is the Difference between Gamma and Gaussian Distributions?

Heavy-Tailed Distributions Generated by Randomly Sampled Gaussian, Exponential and Power-Law Functions

A simple stochastic mechanism that produces exact and approximate power-law distributions is presented. The model considers radially symmetric Gaussian, exponential and power-law functions inn= 1, 2, 3 dimensions. Randomly sampling these functions with a radially uniform sampling scheme produces heavy-tailed distributions. For two-dimensional Gaussians and one-dimensional exponential functions, exact power-laws with exponent –1 are obtained. In other cases, densities with an approximate power-law behaviour close to the origin arise. These densities are analyzed using Padé approximants in order to show the approximate power-law behaviour. If the sampled function itself follows a power-law with exponent –α, random sampling leads to densities that also follow an exact power-law, with exponent -n/a – 1. The presented mechanism shows that power-laws can arise in generic situations different from previously considered specialized systems such as multi-particle systems close to phase transitions, dynamical systems at bifurcation points or systems displaying self-organized criticality. Thus, the presented mechanism may serve as an alternative hypothesis in system identification problems.

Mathematical simulation of burden distribution in COREX 3000 shaft by discrete element method

The distribution of reducing gas in a shaft furnace dominates the temperature profile,gas utilization ratio,metallization degree and is the overwhelming factor for stable,high productivities and low-energy-consumption operation.At the same time,the distribution of gas flow is mainly determined by the position of gas inlet,the packed bed porosity distribution as well as its change due to the difference on the mode of top charge and bottom discharge.When injecting position of the process is fixed,the charge mode is the only means for regulating the gas flow distribution.In this paper,a numerical simulation model of burden distribution in the shaft furnace of COREX 3000 has been developed to analyze the porosity distribution under the different charge modes by means of Discrete Element Method(DEM).The effects of the particle size and its distribution under conditions of different charge batches,chute angle,stoke line on the burden surface shape and burden bed particle size distribution and segregation were investigated,and then the porosity distribution in the shaft of corresponding charging pattern was quantitatively accessed.Therefore,the results can be used to optimize the charge patterns base on required gas distribution.

Oversampling Method Based on Gaussian Distribution and K-Means Clustering

Learning from imbalanced data is one of the greatest challenging problems in binary classification,and this problem has gained more importance in recent years.When the class distribution is imbalanced,classical machine learning algorithms tend to move strongly towards the majority class and disregard the minority.Therefore,the accuracy may be high,but the model cannot recognize data instances in the minority class to classify them,leading to many misclassifications.Different methods have been proposed in the literature to handle the imbalance problem,but most are complicated and tend to simulate unnecessary noise.In this paper,we propose a simple oversampling method based on Multivariate Gaussian distribution and K-means clustering,called GK-Means.The new method aims to avoid generating noise and control imbalances between and within classes.Various experiments have been carried out with six classifiers and four oversampling methods.Experimental results on different imbalanced datasets show that the proposed GK-Means outperforms other oversampling methods and improves classification performance as measured by F1-score and Accuracy.

A Normal Weighted Inverse Gaussian Distribution for Skewed and Heavy-Tailed Data

High frequency financial data is characterized by non-normality: asymmetric, leptokurtic and fat-tailed behaviour. The normal distribution is therefore inadequate in capturing these characteristics. To this end, various flexible distributions have been proposed. It is well known that mixture distributions produce flexible models with good statistical and probabilistic properties. In this work, a finite mixture of two special cases of Generalized Inverse Gaussian distribution has been constructed. Using this finite mixture as a mixing distribution to the Normal Variance Mean Mixture we get a Normal Weighted Inverse Gaussian (NWIG) distribution. The second objective, therefore, is to construct and obtain properties of the NWIG distribution. The maximum likelihood parameter estimates of the proposed model are estimated via EM algorithm and three data sets are used for application. The result shows that the proposed model is flexible and fits the data well.

Analytical Evaluation of Non-Elementary Integrals Involving Some Exponential, Hyperbolic and Trigonometric Elementary Functions and Derivation of New Probability Measures Generalizing the Gamma-Type and Gaussian-Type Distributions

The non-elementary integrals involving elementary exponential, hyperbolic and trigonometric functions, and where α,η and β are real or complex constants are evaluated in terms of the confluent hypergeometric function 1F1 and the hypergeometric function 1F2. The hyperbolic and Euler identities are used to derive some identities involving exponential, hyperbolic, trigonometric functions and the hypergeometric functions 1F1 and 1F2. Having evaluated, these non-elementary integrals, some new probability measures generalizing the gamma-type and Gaussian distributions are also obtained. The obtained generalized probability distributions may, for example, allow to perform better statistical tests than those already known (e.g. chi-square (x2) statistical tests and other statistical tests constructed based on the central limit theorem (CLT)), while avoiding the use of computational approximations (or methods) which are in general expensive and associated with numerical errors.
