The Finite Information Quantity (FIQ) approach offers a novel solution by acknowledging the inherent limitations in information processing capacity of physical systems. This framework facilitates the development of objective criteria for model selection (comparative uncertainty) and paves the way for a more comprehensive understanding of phenomena through exploring diverse explanations. This work presents a detailed comparison of the FIQ approach with ten established model selection methods, highlighting the advantages and limitations of each. We demonstrate the potential of FIQ to enhance the objectivity and robustness of scientific inquiry through three practical examples: selecting appropriate models for measuring fundamental constants, sound velocity, and underwater electrical discharges. Further research is warranted to explore the full applicability of FIQ across various scientific disciplines.展开更多

Some content-based retrieval technologies are indispensable to find out particular data from such anonymous datasets. Though several shape retrieval technologies have been developed, little attention has been given to the points on human's sense and impression (as known as Kansei) in the conventional techniques, In this paper, the authors propose a novel method of shape retrieval based on shape impression of human's Kansei. The key to the method is the Gaussian curvature distribution from 3D models as features for shape retrieval. Then it classifies the 3D models by extracted feature and measures similarity among models in storage.展开更多

The assumption of the dependence of Doppler factor on the emission frequency (δ v≈δ 0 18logvv o , Fan et al. 1993, ApJ., 415, 113) is used to explain the observational differences between the radio selected BL Lac objects (RBLs) and the X Ray Selected BL lac objects (XBLs): a) Hubble relation; b) different multiwavelength correlations; c) different regions in the effective spectral index (α RO - α OX ) diagram; d) different polarization. The results suggest that RBLs and XBLs are the same. 2. From the analysis of the relation between infrared magnitude and redshift, it is proposed that the parent population of BL Lac objects should be FRI radio galaxies and FRII(G) radio galaxies showing the optical spectra of a galaxy. 3. From the superluminal motion, the assumption (δ v≈δ 0 18+logvv 0 ) is confirmed. 4. Based on the relation between polarization and Doppler factor (Fan et al. 1997a), it is proposed that the f, ratio of the beamed luminosity to the unbeamed luminosity in the source frame of OVVs/HPQs is smaller than that of BL Lac objects: f RBLs ~ 6f FSRQs .展开更多

An effective tracking method using the object models is proposed to track multiple objects in a real-time visual surveillance system. Firstly, for detecting objects, an adaptive kernel density estimation method is utilized, which uses an adaptive bandwidth and features combining colour and gradient. Secondly, some models of objects are built for describing motion, shape and colour features. Then, a matching matrix is formed to analyze tracking situations. If objects are tracked under occlusions, the optimal "visual" object is found to represent the occluded object, and the posterior probability of pixel is used to determine which pixel is utilized for updating object models. Extensive experiments show that this method improves the accuracy and validity of tracking objects even under occlusions and is used in real-time visual surveillance systems.展开更多

The paper focuses on how climate change impacts the state’s fragility and how the government should intervene. The paper chooses temperature and rainfall as climate change indicators and establishes a comprehensive evaluating model. The weighting method of the model is determined by combining coefficient of variation method and improved entropy method. The model will output the objective comprehensive evaluation of state’s fragility. The state’s fragilities are quantitatively divided into three levels consisting of the fragile, the vulnerable and the stable in the model. For validation, this paper selects six representative countries and analyzes the degree and the approach of climate change’s impacts on state’s fragility. The fragile values by the model are consistent with the situation in these countries. The state’s fragilities are also predicted by back propagation (BP) neural network. This paper analyzes the impacts of human interventions on improving state’s fragility. The results indicate that the paper could provide reasonable suggestions for the government in the aspects of when and how to take what kind of interventions to improve state’s fragility.展开更多

For validation, this paper selects six representative countries and analyzes the degree and the approach of climate change’s impacts on state’s fragility. The fragile values by the model are consistent with the situation in these countries. The state’s fragilities are also predicted by back propagation (BP) neural network. This paper analyzes the impacts of human interventions on improving state’s fragility. The results indicate that the paper could provide reasonable suggestions for the government in the aspects of when and how to take what kind of interventions to improve state’s fragility.

文摘The printed circuit board(PCB)is an indispensable component of electronic products,which deter-mines the quality of these products.With the development and advancement of manufacturing technology,the layout and structure of PCB are getting complicated.However,there are few effective and accurate PCB defect detection methods.There are high requirements for the accuracy of PCB defect detection in the actual pro-duction environment,so we propose two PCB defect detection frameworks with multiple model fusion including the defect detection by multi-model voting method(DDMV)and the defect detection by multi-model learning method(DDML).With the purpose of reducing wrong and missing detection,the DDMV and DDML integrate multiple defect detection networks with different fusion strategies.The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed framework are verified with extensive experiments on two open-source PCB datasets.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed DDMV and DDML are better than any other individual state-of-the-art PCB defect detection model in F1-score,and the area under curve value of DDML is also higher than that of any other individual detection model.Furthermore,compared with DDMV,the DDML with an automatic machine learning method achieves the best performance in PCB defect detection,and the Fl-score on the two datasets can reach 99.7%and 95.6%respectively.

文摘Recently,reliability-based design is a universal method to quantify negative influence of uncertainty in geotechnical engineering.However,for deep foundation pit,evaluating the system safety of retaining structures and finding cost-effective design points are main challenges.To address this,this study proposes a novel system reliability-based robust design method for retaining system of deep foundation pit and illustrated this method via a simplified case history in Suzhou,China.The proposed method included two parts:system reliability model and robust design method.Back Propagation Neural Network(BPNN)is used to fit limit state functions and conduct efficient reliability analysis.The common source random variable(CSRV)model are used to evaluate correlation between failure modes and determine the system reliability.Furthermore,based on the system reliability model,a robust design method is developed.This method aims to find cost-effective design points.To solve this problem,the third generation non-dominated genetic algorithm(NSGA-III)is adopted.The efficiency and accuracy of whole computations are improved by involving BPNN models and NSGA-III algorithm.The proposed method has a good performance in locating the balanced design point between safety and construction cost.Moreover,the proposed method can provide design points with reasonable stiffness distribution.
文摘Nowadays,the service of network video is increasing explosively.But the quality of experience(QoE)model of network video quality is not stable.The video quality may be impaired by many factors.This paper proposes QoE models for network video quality.It consists of two components:1)the perceptual video quality model considering the impair factors related to video content as well as distortion caused by content and transmission.Next the model is built through a decision tree using a set of measured features form the network video.This proposed model can qualitatively give the grade of video quality and improve the accuracy of prediction.2)Based on the above model,another model is proposed to give the concrete objective score of video quality.It also considers original impair factors and predicts the video quality using fuzzy decision tree.The two models have their own advantages.The first model has a good computational complexity;the second model is more precise.All the models are simulated by actual experiments.They can improve the accuracy of objective model.The detail results are shown.
