Starting from distance-based least-squares fitting we develop an incremental algorithm, which incorporates approximations of stretch and bending energy. In the process, the algorithm reduces the energy weight in favor of accuracy, leading to an optimized set of sampling points. This energy-minimizing fitting strategy is applied to analytically defined as well as triangulated surfaces. The results confirm that the proposed method straightens and shortens the curves efficiently. Moreover the method preserves the accuracy and convergence behavior of distance-based fitting. Preliminary application to surface mesh generation shows a remarkable improvement of patch quality in high curvature regions.展开更多

Now get coal consumption curve is generally obtained by least square method, but which are static curve and these curves remain unchanged for a long time, and make them are incompatible with the actual operation situation of the unit. Furthermore, coal consumption has the characteristics of typical nonlinear and time varying, sometimes the least square method does not work for nonlinear complex problems. For these problems, a method of coal consumption curve fitting of the thermal power plant units based on genetic algorithm is proposed. The residual analysis method is used for data detection;quadratic function is employed to the objective function;appropriate parameters such as initial population size, crossover rate and mutation rate are set;the unit’s actual coal consumption curves are fitted, and comparing the proposed method with least squares method, the results indicate that fitting effect of the former is better than the latter, and further indicate that the proposed method to do curve fitting can best approximate known data in a certain significance, and they can real-timely reflect the interdependence between power output and coal consumption.展开更多

The growth curve of Pudong chicken (cock and hen) from 0 to 20 weeks was analyzed and fitted with three models(Gompertz, Logistic and Bertalanffy). It was concluded that the growth curves were appropriately fitted with three models, and fitness degree (R2)in growth data of Pudong chicken were all above 0.992. The Bertalanffy model was the most effective with the highest R2 for cock (R^2=0.995) and hen (R^2=0.999), respectively. With further analysis of fitted parameters for Logis- tic model of cock, 0-3 weeks' fitted values were significantly greater than measured values and 4-8 weeks' fitted values were lower than measured values. Compared with Logistic model, the values calculated by Gompertz model and Bertalanffy model were more coincident with the practical measuring values. For hens, 0-3 weeks' fitted values of Logistic model were significantly greater than measured values and 0-2 weeks' fitted values of Gompertz model were slightly greater than measured values, while the values calculated by Bertalanffy model best matched the observed values from actual measure. The results showed that Bertalanffy model used to estimate the growth weight of Pudong chicken was the best while Logistic model was the worst. So the fitness and analysis of growth curves of Pudong chicken are valid, which may be adopted to predict growth and development laws of Pudong chicken and provide reliable data for precise feeding and breeding.展开更多

It was on 31 December 2019, the WHO China Country office was informed the cases of pneumonia unknown etiology detected in Wuhan city, Hubei Province of China. Just after WHO’s declaration, Ethiopia has taken different measures to protect from this public health emergency problem. The disease is human to human transmitted virus. It comes from outside of the country, so that it opens check points in different entrance of the country. However, in 13 March 2020 the first positive case was reported from Japanese man. The virus is continuing the transmission in the public progressively more. While this research has been working, within 90 days from the first case, the country reported 2506 positive cases, 35 deaths. The research has done after collecting the first 90 days of data in Ethiopian case. Daily report announced by Ethiopian MoH is based on the test. And hence, the reported data as positive cases with COVID-19 is not actual positive case data in the country. There for, this paper has contribution for planning and taking further measure on the viruses by demonstrating the next 90 days predictive data.

Firstly a new approach to adaptive curve fitting is presented, which leads the normal fitting error to be minimum for a series of given discrete points, including a plane curve fitting, a spherical curve fitting and a ruled surface fitting in terms of invariants of ruled surface. Approximate characteristic points and lines are defined, such as an approximate circle point, an approximate slide point, an approximate spherical cone point and an approximate constant axis with an approximate spherical image cone point and an approximate striction curve. Then,the ruled surface fitting will be converted into a space curve fitting and a spherical curve fitting by differential geometry. Based on these definitions and the adaptive curve fitting approaches, the unified mathematical model is set up for the kinematic synthesis of mechanism from planar, spherical to spatial motion. Finally, a planar mechanism or a spatial mechanism can be synthesized by means of searching for two approximate characteristic points, or a characteristic point and a characteristic line, even two characteristic lines. This puper lays a theoretic base for the existence of the best solution and the convergence of the optimum algorithm.展开更多

Lagrange multiplier selection methods based on the globally linear approximate relationship are neither efficient nor optimal for multi-view video coding (MVC). To improve the coding efficiency of MVC, a local curve fitting based Lagrange multiplier selection method is proposed in this paper, where Lagrange multipliers are selected according to the local slopes of the approximate curves. Experi-mental results showed that the proposed method improves the coding efficiency. Up to 2.5 dB gain was achieved at low bitrates.展开更多

文摘A unified approach to kinematic synthesis of mechanism is presented in this paper. Firstly a new approach to adaptive curve fitting is presented, which leads the normal fitting error to be minimum for a series of given discrete points, including a plane curve fitting, a spherical curve fitting and a ruled surface fitting in terms of invariants of ruled surface. Approximate characteristic points and lines are defined, such as an approximate circle point, an approximate slide point, an approximate spherical cone point and an approximate constant axis with an approximate spherical image cone point and an approximate striction curve. Then,the ruled surface fitting will be converted into a space curve fitting and a spherical curve fitting by differential geometry. Based on these definitions and the adaptive curve fitting approaches, the unified mathematical model is set up for the kinematic synthesis of mechanism from planar, spherical to spatial motion. Finally, a planar mechanism or a spatial mechanism can be synthesized by means of searching for two approximate characteristic points, or a characteristic point and a characteristic line, even two characteristic lines. This puper lays a theoretic base for the existence of the best solution and the convergence of the optimum algorithm.

文摘The rate and distortion of Id-slice do not fit the globally linear relationship on a logarithmic scale. Lagrange multiplier selection methods based on the globally linear approximate relationship are neither efficient nor optimal for multi-view video coding (MVC). To improve the coding efficiency of MVC, a local curve fitting based Lagrange multiplier selection method is proposed in this paper, where Lagrange multipliers are selected according to the local slopes of the approximate curves. Experi-mental results showed that the proposed method improves the coding efficiency. Up to 2.5 dB gain was achieved at low bitrates.
