Comparison of Geographically Weighted Regression of Benthic Substrate Modeling Accuracy on Large and Small Wadeable Streams

Aquatic habitat assessments encompass large and small wadeable streams which vary from many meters wide to ephemeral. Differences in stream sizes within or across watersheds, however, may lead to incompatibility of data at varying spatial scales. Specifically, issues caused by moving between scales on large and small streams are not typically addressed by many forms of statistical analysis, making the comparison of large (>30 m wetted width) and small stream (<10 m wetted width) habitat assessments difficult. Geographically weighted regression (GWR) may provide avenues for efficiency and needed insight into stream habitat data by addressing issues caused by moving between scales. This study examined the ability of GWR to consistently model stream substrate on both large and small wadeable streams at an equivalent resolution. We performed GWR on two groups of 60 randomly selected substrate patches from large and small streams and used depth measurements to model substrate. Our large and small stream substrate models responded equally well to GWR. Results showed no statistically significant difference between GWR R2 values of large and small stream streams. Results also provided a much needed method for comparison of large and small wadeable streams. Our results have merit for aquatic resource managers, because they demonstrate ability to spatially model and compare substrate on large and small streams. Using depth to guide substrate modeling by geographically weighted regression has a variety of applications which may help manage, monitor stream health, and interpret substrate change over time.

Extended activated sludge model no. 1 (ASM1) for simulating biodegradation process using bacterial technology

Phosphorus is one of the most important nutrients required to support various kinds of biodegradation processes. As this particular nutrient is not included in the activated sludge model no. 1 （ASM1）, this study extended this model in order to determine the fate of phosphorus during the biodegradation processes. When some of the kinetics parameters are modified using observed data from the restoration project of the Xuxi River in Wuxi City, China, from August 25 to 31 in 2009, the extended model shows excellent results. In order to obtain optimum values of coefficients of nitrogen and phosphorus, the mass fraction method was used to ensure that the final results were reasonable and practically relevant. The temporal distribution of the data calculated with the extended ASM1 approximates that of the observed data.

Bicriteria Algorithms for Approximately Submodular Cover Under Streaming Model

In this paper,we mainly investigate the optimization model that minimizes the cost function such that the cover function exceeds a required threshold in the set cover problem,where the cost function is additive linear,and the cover function is non-monotone approximately submodular.We study the problem under streaming model and propose three bicriteria approximation algorithms.Firstly,we provide an intuitive streaming algorithm under the assumption of known optimal objective value.The intuitive streaming algorithm returns a solution such that its cover function value is no less thanα(1−ϵ)times threshold,and the cost function is no more than(2+ϵ)^(2)/(ϵ^(2)ω^(2))⋅κ,whereκis a value that we suppose for the optimal solution andαis the approximation ratio of an algorithm for unconstrained maximization problem that we can call directly.Next we present a bicriteria streaming algorithm scanning the ground set multi-pass to weak the assumption that we guess the optimal objective value in advance,and maintain the same bicriteria approximation ratio.Finally we modify the multi-pass streaming algorithm to a single-pass one without compromising the performance ratio.Additionally,we also propose some numerical experiments to test our algorithm’s performance comparing with some existing methods.

Multiple-Morphs Adaptive Stream Architecture

In modern VLSI technology, hundreds of thousands of arithmetic units fit on a 1cm^2 chip. The challenge is supplying them with instructions and data. Stream architecture is able to solve the problem well. However, the applications suited for typical stream architecture are limited. This paper presents the definition of regular stream and irregular stream, and then describes MASA （Multiple-morphs Adaptive Stream Architecture） prototype system which supports different execution models according to applications＇ stream characteristics. This paper first discusses MASA architecture and stream model, and then explores the features and advantages of MASA through mapping stream applications to hardware. Finally MASA is evaluated by ten benchmarks. The result is encouraging.

Machining Error Control by Integrating Multivariate Statistical Process Control and Stream of Variations Methodology

For aircraft manufacturing industries, the analyses and prediction of part machining error during machining process are very important to control and improve part machining quality. In order to effectively control machining error, the method of integrating multivariate statistical process control （MSPC） and stream of variations （SoV） is proposed. Firstly, machining error is modeled by multi-operation approaches for part machining process. SoV is adopted to establish the mathematic model of the relationship between the error of upstream operations and the error of downstream operations. Here error sources not only include the influence of upstream operations but also include many of other error sources. The standard model and the predicted model about SoV are built respectively by whether the operation is done or not to satisfy different requests during part machining process. Secondly, the method of one-step ahead forecast error （OSFE） is used to eliminate autocorrelativity of the sample data from the SoV model, and the T2 control chart in MSPC is built to realize machining error detection according to the data characteristics of the above error model, which can judge whether the operation is out of control or not. If it is, then feedback is sent to the operations. The error model is modified by adjusting the operation out of control, and continually it is used to monitor operations. Finally, a machining instance containing two operations demonstrates the effectiveness of the machining error control method presented in this paper.

Approximating(mB,mP)-Monotone BP Maximization and Extensions

The paper proposes the optimization problem of maximizing the sum of suBmodular and suPermodular(BP)functions with partial monotonicity under a streaming fashion.In this model,elements are randomly released from the stream and the utility is encoded by the sum of partial monotone suBmodular and suPermodular functions.The goal is to determine whether a subset from the stream of size bounded by parameter k subject to the summarized utility is as large as possible.In this work,a threshold-based streaming algorithm is presented for the BP maximization that attains a(1-k)/(2-k)-O(e)-approximation with O(1/e^(4)1og^(3)(1/s)log(2-k)k/(1-k)^(2))memory complexity,where k denotes the parameter of supermodularity ratio.We further consider a more general model with fair constraints and present a greedy-based algorithm that obtains the same approximation.We finally investigate this fair model under the streaming fashion and provide a(1-k)^(4)/(2-2k+k^(2))^(2)-O(e)-approximation algorithm.
