A cloud model target damage effectiveness assessment algorithm based on spatio-temporal sequence finite multilayer fragments dispersion

To solve the problem of target damage assessment when fragments attack target under uncertain projectile and target intersection in an air defense intercept,this paper proposes a method for calculating target damage probability leveraging spatio-temporal finite multilayer fragments distribution and the target damage assessment algorithm based on cloud model theory.Drawing on the spatial dispersion characteristics of fragments of projectile proximity explosion,we divide into a finite number of fragments distribution planes based on the time series in space,set up a fragment layer dispersion model grounded in the time series and intersection criterion for determining the effective penetration of each layer of fragments into the target.Building on the precondition that the multilayer fragments of the time series effectively assail the target,we also establish the damage criterion of the perforation and penetration damage and deduce the damage probability calculation model.Taking the damage probability of the fragment layer in the spatio-temporal sequence to the target as the input state variable,we introduce cloud model theory to research the target damage assessment method.Combining the equivalent simulation experiment,the scientific and rational nature of the proposed method were validated through quantitative calculations and comparative analysis.

Breed identification using breed‑informative SNPs and machine learning based on whole genome sequence data and SNP chip data

Background Breed identification is useful in a variety of biological contexts.Breed identification usually involves two stages,i.e.,detection of breed-informative SNPs and breed assignment.For both stages,there are several methods proposed.However,what is the optimal combination of these methods remain unclear.In this study,using the whole genome sequence data available for 13 cattle breeds from Run 8 of the 1,000 Bull Genomes Project,we compared the combinations of three methods(Delta,FST,and In)for breed-informative SNP detection and five machine learning methods(KNN,SVM,RF,NB,and ANN)for breed assignment with respect to different reference population sizes and difference numbers of most breed-informative SNPs.In addition,we evaluated the accuracy of breed identification using SNP chip data of different densities.Results We found that all combinations performed quite well with identification accuracies over 95%in all scenarios.However,there was no combination which performed the best and robust across all scenarios.We proposed to inte-grate the three breed-informative detection methods,named DFI,and integrate the three machine learning methods,KNN,SVM,and RF,named KSR.We found that the combination of these two integrated methods outperformed the other combinations with accuracies over 99%in most cases and was very robust in all scenarios.The accuracies from using SNP chip data were only slightly lower than that from using sequence data in most cases.Conclusions The current study showed that the combination of DFI and KSR was the optimal strategy.Using sequence data resulted in higher accuracies than using chip data in most cases.However,the differences were gener-ally small.In view of the cost of genotyping,using chip data is also a good option for breed identification.

Spatio-temporal changes of underground coal fires during 2008-2016 in Khanh Hoa coal field(North-east of Viet Nam) using Landsat time-series data

Underground coal fires are one of the most common and serious geohazards in most coal producing countries in the world. Monitoring their spatio-temporal changes plays an important role in controlling and preventing the effects of coal fires, and their environmental impact. In this study, the spatio-temporal changes of underground coal fires in Khanh Hoa coal field(North-East of Viet Nam) were analyzed using Landsat time-series data during the 2008-2016 period. Based on land surface temperatures retrieved from Landsat thermal data, underground coal fires related to thermal anomalies were identified using the MEDIAN+1.5×IQR(IQR: Interquartile range) threshold technique. The locations of underground coal fires were validated using a coal fire map produced by the field survey data and cross-validated using the daytime ASTER thermal infrared imagery. Based on the fires extracted from seven Landsat thermal imageries, the spatiotemporal changes of underground coal fire areas were analyzed. The results showed that the thermalanomalous zones have been correlated with known coal fires. Cross-validation of coal fires using ASTER TIR data showed a high consistency of 79.3%. The largest coal fire area of 184.6 hectares was detected in 2010, followed by 2014(181.1 hectares) and 2016(178.5 hectares). The smaller coal fire areas were extracted with areas of 133.6 and 152.5 hectares in 2011 and 2009 respectively. Underground coal fires were mainly detected in the northern and southern part, and tend to spread to north-west of the coal field.

Constructing a raster-based spatio-temporal hierarchical data model for marine fisheries application

Marine information has been increasing quickly. The traditional database technologies have disadvantages in manipulating large amounts of marine information which relates to the position in 3-D with the time. Recently, greater emphasis has been placed on GIS （geographical information system）to deal with the marine information. The GIS has shown great success for terrestrial applications in the last decades, but its use in marine fields has been far more restricted. One of the main reasons is that most of the GIS systems or their data models are designed for land applications. They cannot do well with the nature of the marine environment and for the marine information. And this becomes a fundamental challenge to the traditional GIS and its data structure. This work designed a data model, the raster-based spatio-temporal hierarchical data model （RSHDM）, for the marine information system, or for the knowledge discovery fi＇om spatio-temporal data, which bases itself on the nature of the marine data and overcomes the shortages of the current spatio-temporal models when they are used in the field. As an experiment, the marine fishery data warehouse （FDW） for marine fishery management was set up, which was based on the RSHDM. The experiment proved that the RSHDM can do well with the data and can extract easily the aggregations that the management needs at different levels.

Incorporating genomic annotation into single-step genomic prediction with imputed whole-genome sequence data

Single-step genomic best linear unbiased prediction(ss GBLUP) is now intensively investigated and widely used in livestock breeding due to its beneficial feature of combining information from both genotyped and ungenotyped individuals in the single model. With the increasing accessibility of whole-genome sequence(WGS) data at the population level, more attention is being paid to the usage of WGS data in ss GBLUP. The predictive ability of ss GBLUP using WGS data might be improved by incorporating biological knowledge from public databases. Thus, we extended ss GBLUP, incorporated genomic annotation information into the model, and evaluated them using a yellow-feathered chicken population as the examples. The chicken population consisted of 1 338 birds with 23 traits, where imputed WGS data including 5 127 612 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) are available for 895 birds. Considering different combinations of annotation information and models, original ss GBLUP, haplotype-based ss GHBLUP, and four extended ss GBLUP incorporating genomic annotation models were evaluated. Based on the genomic annotation(GRCg6a) of chickens, 3 155 524 and 94 837 SNPs were mapped to genic and exonic regions, respectively. Extended ss GBLUP using genic/exonic SNPs outperformed other models with respect to predictive ability in 15 out of 23 traits, and their advantages ranged from 2.5 to 6.1% compared with original ss GBLUP. In addition, to further enhance the performance of genomic prediction with imputed WGS data, we investigated the genotyping strategies of reference population on ss GBLUP in the chicken population. Comparing two strategies of individual selection for genotyping in the reference population, the strategy of evenly selection by family(SBF) performed slightly better than random selection in most situations. Overall, we extended genomic prediction models that can comprehensively utilize WGS data and genomic annotation information in the framework of ss GBLUP, and validated the idea that properly handling the genomic annotation information and WGS data increased the predictive ability of ss GBLUP. Moreover, while using WGS data, the genotyping strategy of maximizing the expected genetic relationship between the reference and candidate population could further improve the predictive ability of ss GBLUP. The results from this study shed light on the comprehensive usage of genomic annotation information in WGS-based single-step genomic prediction.

Analysis on the Influence of Automatic Station Temperature Data on the Sequence Continuity of Historical Meteorological Data

[Objective] The research aimed to study the influence of automatic station data on the sequence continuity of historical meteorological data. [Method] Based on the temperature data which were measured by the automatic meteorological station and the corresponding artificial observation data during January-December in 2001, the monthly average, maximum and minimum temperatures in the automatic station were compared with the corresponding artificial observation temperature data in the parallel observation period by using the contrast difference and the standard deviation of difference value. The difference between the automatic station and the artificial data, the variation characteristics were understood. Meanwhile, the significance test and analysis of annual average value were carried out by the data sequence during 1990-2009. The influence of automatic station replacing the artificial observation on the sequence continuity of historical temperature data was discussed. [Result] Although the two temperature data in the parallel observation period had the certain difference, the difference was in the permitted range of automatic station difference value on average. The difference of individual month surpassed the permitted range of automatic station difference value. The significance test showed that the annual average temperature and the annual average minimum temperature which were observed in the automatic station had the difference with the historical data. It had the certain influence on the annual temperature sequence, but the difference wasn’t significant as a whole. When the automatic observation combined with the artificial observation to use, the sequence needed carry out the homogeneous test and correction. [Conclusion] The research played the important role on guaranteeing the monorail running of automatic station, optimizing the meteorological surface observation system, improving the climate sequence continuity of meteorological element and the reliability of climate statistics.

Fusing multi-source data to map spatio-temporal dynamics of winter rape on the Jianghan Plain and Dongting Lake Plain, China

Mapping crop distribution with remote sensing data is of great importance for agricultural production, food security and agricultural sustainability. Winter rape is an important oil crop, which plays an important role in the cooking oil market of China. The Jianghan Plain and Dongting Lake Plain (JPDLP) are major agricultural production areas in China. Essential changes in winter rape distribution have taken place in this area during the 21st century. However, the pattern of these changes remains unknown. In this study, the spatial and temporal dynamics of winter rape from 2000 to 2017 on the JPDLP were analyzed. An artificial neural network (ANN)-based classification method was proposed to map fractional winter rape distribution by fusing moderate resolution imaging spectrometer (MODIS) data and high-resolution imagery. The results are as follows:(1) The total winter rape acreages on the JPDLP dropped significantly, especially on the Jianghan Plain with a decline of about 45% during 2000 and 2017.(2) The winter rape abundance keeps changing with about 20–30% croplands changing their abundance drastically in every two consecutive observation years.(3) The winter rape has obvious regional differentiation for the trend of its change at the county level, and the decreasing trend was observed more strongly in the traditionally dominant agricultural counties.

A Spatio-temporal Data Model for Road Network in Data Center Based on Incremental Updating in Vehicle Navigation System

The technique of incremental updating,which can better guarantee the real-time situation of navigational map,is the developing orientation of navigational road network updating.The data center of vehicle navigation system is in charge of storing incremental data,and the spatio-temporal data model for storing incremental data does affect the efficiency of the response of the data center to the requirements of incremental data from the vehicle terminal.According to the analysis on the shortcomings of several typical spatio-temporal data models used in the data center and based on the base map with overlay model,the reverse map with overlay model (RMOM) was put forward for the data center to make rapid response to incremental data request.RMOM supports the data center to store not only the current complete road network data,but also the overlays of incremental data from the time when each road network changed to the current moment.Moreover,the storage mechanism and index structure of the incremental data were designed,and the implementation algorithm of RMOM was developed.Taking navigational road network in Guangzhou City as an example,the simulation test was conducted to validate the efficiency of RMOM.Results show that the navigation database in the data center can response to the requirements of incremental data by only one query with RMOM,and costs less time.Compared with the base map with overlay model,the data center does not need to temporarily overlay incremental data with RMOM,so time-consuming of response is significantly reduced.RMOM greatly improves the efficiency of response and provides strong support for the real-time situation of navigational road network.

Logging Data High-Resolution Sequence Stratigraphy

The recognition and contrast of bed sets in parasequence is difficult in terrestrial basin high-resolution sequence stratigraphy. This study puts forward new methods for the boundary identification and contrast of bed sets on the basis of manifold logging data. The formation of calcareous interbeds, shale resistivity differences and the relation of reservoir resistivity to altitude are considered on the basis of log curve morphological characteristics, core observation, cast thin section, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the thickness of calcareous interbeds is between 0.5 m and 2 m, increasing on weathering crusts and faults. Calcareous interbeds occur at the bottom of a distributary channel and the top of a distributary mouth bar. Lower resistivity shale （4-5 Ω · m） and higher resistivity shale （〉 10Ω·m） reflect differences in sediment fountain or sediment microfacies. Reservoir resistivity increases with altitude. Calcareous interbeds may be a symbol of recognition for the boundary of bed sets and isochronous contrast bed sets, and shale resistivity differences may confirm the stack relation and connectivity of bed sets. Based on this, a high-resolution chronostratigraphic frame- work of Xi-1 segment in Shinan area, Junggar basin is presented, and the connectivity of bed sets and oil-water contact is confirmed. In this chronostratigraphic framework, the growth order, stack mode and space shape of bed sets are qualitatively and quantitatively described.

Wi-Fi Positioning Dataset with Multiusers and Multidevices Considering Spatio-Temporal Variations

Precise information on indoor positioning provides a foundation for position-related customer services.Despite the emergence of several indoor positioning technologies such as ultrawideband,infrared,radio frequency identification,Bluetooth beacons,pedestrian dead reckoning,and magnetic field,Wi-Fi is one of the most widely used technologies.Predominantly,Wi-Fi fingerprinting is the most popular method and has been researched over the past two decades.Wi-Fi positioning faces three core problems:device heterogeneity,robustness to signal changes caused by human mobility,and device attitude,i.e.,varying orientations.The existing methods do not cover these aspects owing to the unavailability of publicly available datasets.This study introduces a dataset that includes the Wi-Fi received signal strength(RSS)gathered using four different devices,namely Samsung Galaxy S8,S9,A8,LG G6,and LG G7,operated by three surveyors,including a female and two males.In addition,three orientations of the smartphones are used for the data collection and include multiple buildings with a multifloor environment.Various levels of human mobility have been considered in dynamic environments.To analyze the time-related impact on Wi-Fi RSS,data over 3 years have been considered.

Sequence-To-Sequence Learning for Online Imputation of Sensory Data

Online sensing can provide useful information in monitoring applications,for example,machine health monitoring,structural condition monitoring,environmental monitoring,and many more.Missing data is generally a significant issue in the sensory data that is collected online by sensing systems,which may affect the goals of monitoring programs.In this paper,a sequence-to-sequence learning model based on a recurrent neural network(RNN)architecture is presented.In the proposed method,multivariate time series of the monitored parameters is embedded into the neural network through layer-by-layer encoders where the hidden features of the inputs are adaptively extracted.Afterwards,predictions of the missing data are generated by network decoders,which are one-step-ahead predictive data sequences of the monitored parameters.The prediction performance of the proposed model is validated based on a real-world sensory dataset.The experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed RNN-encoder-decoder model with its capability in sequence-to-sequence learning for online imputation of sensory data.

KoNA:Korean Nucleotide Archive as A New Data Repository for Nucleotide Sequence Data

During the last decade,the generation and accumulation of petabase-scale high-throughput sequencing data have resulted in great challenges,including access to human data,as well as transfer,storage,and sharing of enormous amounts of data.To promote data-driven biological research,the Korean government announced that all biological data generated from government-funded research projects should be deposited at the Korea BioData Station(K-BDS),which consists of multiple databases for individual data types.Here,we introduce the Korean Nucleotide Archive(KoNA),a repository of nucleotide sequence data.As of July 2022,the Korean Read Archive in KoNA has collected over 477 TB of raw next-generation sequencing data from national genome projects.To ensure data quality and prepare for international alignment,a standard operating procedure was adopted,which is similar to that of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration.The standard operating procedure includes quality control processes for submitted data and metadata using an automated pipeline,followed by manual examination.To ensure fast and stable data transfer,a high-speed transmission system called GBox is used in KoNA.Furthermore,the data uploaded to or downloaded from KoNA through GBox can be readily processed using a cloud computing service called Bio-Express.This seamless coupling of KoNA,GBox,and Bio-Express enhances the data experience,including submission,access,and analysis of raw nucleotide sequences.KoNA not only satisfies the unmet needs for a national sequence repository in Korea but also provides datasets to researchers globally and contributes to advances in genomics.The KoNA is available at https://www.kobic.re.kr/kona/.

Spatio-temporal Variations of Temperature and Precipitation During 1951–2019 in Arid and Semiarid Region, China

Understanding the spatio-temporal variations of temperature and precipitation in the arid and semiarid region of China(ASRC)is of great significance for promoting regional eco-environmental protection and policy-making.In this study,the annual and seasonal spatio-temporal patterns of change in average temperature and precipitation and their influencing factors in the ASRC were analyzed using the Mann-Kendall test,linear tendency estimation,accumulative anomaly and the Pearson’s correlation coefficient.The results showed that both annual average temperature and average annual precipitation increased in the ASRC during 1951–2019.The temperature rose by about 1.93℃and precipitation increased by about 24 mm.The seasonal average temperature presented a significant increase trend,and the seasonal precipitation was conspicuous ascension in spring and winter.The spatio-temporal patterns of change in temperature and precipitation differed,with the southwest area showing the most obvious variation in each season.Abrupt changes in annual and seasonal average temperature and precipitation occurred mainly around the 1990 s and after 2000,respectively.Atmospheric circulation had an important effect on the trends and abrupt changes in temperature and precipitation.The East Asian summer monsoon had the largest impact on the trend of average annual temperature,as well as on the abrupt changes of annual average temperature and precipitation.Temperature and precipitation changes in the ASRC were influenced by long-term and short-term as well as direct and indirect anthropogenic and natural factors.This study identifies the characteristics of spatio-temporal variations in temperature and precipitation in the ASRC and provides a scientific reference for the formulation of climate change responses.
