The frame is shaped in the part milling under a given clamping condition by using the three-dimensional finite element method (FEM). Result shows that the sidewall deformation has a big difference if only the tool-path changes. When the tool-path from the outside to the inside is used, the machining deformation is smaller than another three kinds of toolpaths. Simulation results are compared with experimental data, and the correctness of the simulation is verified.Reasonable processing paths can be found by FEM.展开更多

The isolation belt struc- ture is usually employed to enhance the dimensional accuracy of electroformed metal mieropart. However, noble metal is wasted because the isolation belt is filled with metal when noble metal mieroparts are fabricated. There- fore, a semi-isolation belt structure is presented to save noble metal. Furthermore, a high current density is also introduced to shorten the eleetroforming time, and thus the dimensional accuracy of electroformed gold micropart is improved by using the electrolyte jet. The experimental results indicate that both the semi-isolation belt and the high current density can help to enhance the dimensional accuracy of electroformed gold micropart. Its dimen- sional error is only 5 μm at the current density of 0. 6 A/dm2 while the semi-isolation belt structure is used.展开更多

A boring bar is made into lever structure, with strain gauges attached to the bar for measuring its force induced deflections. The piezoelectric actuator is employed to compensate the deflections of the boring bar for accuracy improvement. Due to the mechanical advantage of the structure, the boring bar can be made into smaller size. The diameter of the bar implemented is 10 mm and the ratio of length to diameter (L/D) is larger than 8. It is found that the machining accuracy is improved considerably by using the piezoelectric actuator compensation system.展开更多

However, in our previous calibration experiments, poor consistency was observed. The size of D-Dot sensors relative to TEM cells is considered the main reason for this poor consistency. Therefore, this study aims at determining the calibration coefficient of a D-Dot sensor. We calculate the theoretical coefficient as a reference. Practical calibration experiments involve the processing of TEM cells with three different sizes. To observe the response more clearly, corresponding models are constructed and numerical simulations are performed. The numerical simulations and experimental calibration are in good agreement. To determine the calibration accuracy, we quantify the accuracy using the relative error of the calibration coefficient. By comparing the coefficients obtained, it can be concluded that the perturbation error is about 15% when the relative size is over 1/3. Further, the relative size should be less than 1/5 to obtain a relative error below 10%.展开更多

Methods Forty-seven consecutive patients with relatively higher HR (>65 and <100 bpm) (20 male, 27 female; age 55±10 years) who both underwent dual-source CTCA and CCA were prospectively included in this study. All patients were performed CTCA using high pitch mode setting at 20%-30% of the R-R interval for the image acquisition. All coronary segments were evaluated by two blinded and independent observers with regard to image quality on a three-point scale (1: excellent to 3: non-diagnostic) and for the presence of significant coronary stenoses (defined as diameter narrowing exceeding 50%). Considered CCA as the standard of reference, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were calculated. Radiation dose values were calculated using the dose-length product. Results Image quality was rated as being score 1 in 92.4% of segments, score 2 in 6.1% of segmentsand score 3 in 1.5% of segments. The average image quality score per segment was 1.064±0.306. The HR variability of patients with image score 1, 2 and 3 were 2.29±1.06 bpm, 5.17±1.37 bpm, 8.88±1.53 bpm, respectively. The average HR variability of patients with different image scores were significantly different (F=170.402, P=0.001). The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were 92.6%, 97.0%, 87.6%, 98.3%, respectively, per segment and 90.0%, 95.2%, 85.3%, 96.9%, respectively, per vessel and 100%, 63.6%, 90.0%, 100%, respectively, per patient. The effective radiation dose was on average 0.86±0.16 mSv. Conclusion In patients with HR more than 65 bpm and below 100 bpm without cardiac arrhythmia, the prospectively electrocardiogram-gated high-pitch spiral acquisition mode with image acquired timing set at 20%-30% of the R-R interval provides a high diagnostic accuracy for the assessment of coronary stenoses combined with a 1.5% of non-diagnostic coronary segments and a radiation dose below 1 mSv.展开更多

Fortunately...As a widely used reconstruction algorithm in quantum state tomography, maximum likelihood estimation tends to assign a rank-deficient matrix, which decreases estimation accuracy for certain quantum states. Fortunately, hedged maximum likelihood estimation (HMLE) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 (2010)200504] was proposed to avoid this problem. Here we study more details about this proposal in the two-qubit case and further improve its performance. We ameliorate the HMLE method by updating the hedging function based on the purity of the estimated state. Both performances of HMLE and ameliorated HMLE are demonstrated by numerical simulation and experimental implementation on the Werner states of polarization-entangled photons.展开更多

Tile relationships among imaging accuracy, distance coefficient and residual direct wave are investigated, and then the residual direct wave is introduced to make the engineering application more convenient. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated experimentally by sparse transducer array of a rectangle, and the results reveal that selecting experimental data of smaller distance coefficient can effectively improve imaging accuracy. Moreover, the direct wave difference increases with the decrease of the distance coefficient, which implies that the imaging accuracy can be effectively improved by using the experimental data of the larger direct wave difference.展开更多

文摘The purpose of adversarial deep learning is to train robust DNNs against adversarial attacks,and this is one of the major research focuses of deep learning.Game theory has been used to answer some of the basic questions about adversarial deep learning,such as those regarding the existence of a classifier with optimal robustness and the existence of optimal adversarial samples for a given class of classifiers.In most previous works,adversarial deep learning was formulated as a simultaneous game and the strategy spaces were assumed to be certain probability distributions in order for the Nash equilibrium to exist.However,this assumption is not applicable to practical situations.In this paper,we give answers to these basic questions for the practical case where the classifiers are DNNs with a given structure;we do that by formulating adversarial deep learning in the form of Stackelberg games.The existence of Stackelberg equilibria for these games is proven.Furthermore,it is shown that the equilibrium DNN has the largest adversarial accuracy among all DNNs with the same structure,when Carlini-Wagner s margin loss is used.The trade-off between robustness and accuracy in adversarial deep learning is also studied from a game theoretical perspective.

文摘As a widely used reconstruction algorithm in quantum state tomography, maximum likelihood estimation tends to assign a rank-deficient matrix, which decreases estimation accuracy for certain quantum states. Fortunately, hedged maximum likelihood estimation (HMLE) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 (2010)200504] was proposed to avoid this problem. Here we study more details about this proposal in the two-qubit case and further improve its performance. We ameliorate the HMLE method by updating the hedging function based on the purity of the estimated state. Both performances of HMLE and ameliorated HMLE are demonstrated by numerical simulation and experimental implementation on the Werner states of polarization-entangled photons.
文摘An imaging accuracy improving method is established, within which a distance coefficient including location information between sparse array configuration and the location of defect is proposed to select higher signal- to-noise ratio data from all experimental data and then to use these selected data for elliptical imaging. Tile relationships among imaging accuracy, distance coefficient and residual direct wave are investigated, and then the residual direct wave is introduced to make the engineering application more convenient. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated experimentally by sparse transducer array of a rectangle, and the results reveal that selecting experimental data of smaller distance coefficient can effectively improve imaging accuracy. Moreover, the direct wave difference increases with the decrease of the distance coefficient, which implies that the imaging accuracy can be effectively improved by using the experimental data of the larger direct wave difference.
