The simulated deceptive false targets from DRFM cannot be easily discriminated and suppressed with traditional radar systems. Therefore, multistatic radar has attracted considerable interest as it provides improved performance against deception jamming due to several separated receivers. This paper first investigates the received signal model in the presence of multiple false targets in all receivers of the multistatic radar. Then, obtain the propagation time delays of the false targets based on the cross-correlation test of the received signals in different receivers. In doing so, local-density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise(LDBSCAN) is proposed to discriminate the FTs from the physical targets(PTs) after compensating the FTs time delays, where the FTs are approximately coincident with one position, while PTs possess small dispersion.Numerical simulations are carried out to demonstrate the feasibility and validness of the proposed method.展开更多

To compensate the thermal-induced machin ing errors, a relationship model between the thermal field and deformations was needed. The relationship can be deduced by virtual of FEM (Finite Element Method ), ANN (Artificial Neural Network) or MRA (Multiple Regression Analysis). MR A is on the basis of a total understanding of the temperature distribution of th e machine tool. Although the more the temperatures measured are, the more accura te the MRA is, too more temperatures will hinder the analysis calculation. So it is necessary to identify the key temperatures of the machine tool. The selectio n of key temperatures decides the efficiency and precision of MRA. Because of th e complexities and multi-input and multi-output structure of the relationships , the exact quantitative portions as well as the unclear portions must be taken into consideration together to improve the identification of key temperatures. I n this paper, a fuzzy cluster analysis was used to select the key temperatures. The substance of identifying the key temperatures is to group all temperatures b y their relativity, and then to select a temperature from each group as the repr esentation. A fuzzy cluster analysis can uncover the relationships between t he thermal field and deformations more truly and thoroughly. A fuzzy cluster ana lysis is the cluster analysis based on fuzzy sets. Given U={u i|i=0,...,N}, in which u i is the temperature measured, a fuzzy matrix R can be obta ined. The transfer close package t(R) can be deduced from R. A fuzzy clu ster of U then conducts on the basis of t(R). Based on the fuzzy cluster analysis discussed above, this paper identified the k ey temperatures of a horizontal machining center. The number of the temperatures measured was reduced to 4 from 32, and then the multiple regression relationshi p models between the 4 temperatures and the thermal deformations of the spindle were drawn. The remnant errors between the regression models and measured deform ations reached a satisfying low level. At the same time, the decreasing of tempe rature variable number improved the efficiency of measure and analysis greatly.展开更多

In this work, surface water quality data for 12 physical and chemical parameters collected from 10 sampling sites in the Nenjiang River basin during the years(2012-2013) were analyzed. The results show that river water quality has significant temporal and spatial variations. Hierarchical cluster analysis(HCA) grouped 12 months into three periods(LF, MF and HF) and classified 10 monitoring sites into three regions(LP, MP and HP) based on the similarity of water quality characteristics. The principle component analysis(PCA)/factor analysis(FA) was used to recognize the factors or origins responsible for temporal and spatial water quality variations. Temporal and spatial PCA/FA revealed that the Nenjiang River water chemistry was strongly affected by rock/water interaction, hydrologic processes and anthropogenic activities. This work demonstrates that the application of HCA and PCA/FA has achieved meaningful classification based on temporal and spatial criteria.展开更多

Based upon the above differences this paper induces an integrated ranking measurement which helps to give a fair and full ranking for all DMUs under evaluation. Following the three types of differences, this approach behaves greatly elaborately, accurately and reasonably. Finally, the results from the Olympics achievement evaluation approve the acceptability of this approach.展开更多

The method divi des the parts of each product into similar kinds according to their features, an d installs each kind of parts on different working platforms. The working platfo rm, as a unit, is designed to be flexible and is interchangeable. It can be hung and fitted to the CNC working table. By changing the platforms in turn, nearly all the parts of one product can be processed with one CNC machine, and can be s ent directly to an assembly shop. Thus the number of management links is reduced and the production rate is increased. Several working platforms may be needed w hen several different types of parts are being processed. However, to reduce pro duction costs, it is necessary to limit the similarity coefficient of part class ification. The feature-coding classification is better for processing parts wit h this method. A practical classification code made by the author is for plastic injection machines. As an example, ten numbers (0～9) are used to express the d i fferent functions and the main features of the parts in the first code-rank. An insufficient classification may be offset by applying cut store and adjusting f unctions to the processing program in the CNC machine center, thereby allowing a set of parts which are not completely similar to be processed on a single worki ng platform. Before a set of parts with incompletely similar features is machine d on a working platform, it is necessary to plan reasonable technological proces s, for which we adopted an optimum method aimed to shorten the working period so as to increase production rate. The fixture planning for this processing method is also discussed in this paper. Modular fixture is recommended for mounting a set of parts on a working platform. In general, modular fixture has a basic boar d and a set of disassemble locating and clamping elements. Because the working p latform can be used directly as the main locating datum, it is unnecessary to de sign another basic board. However, if a working platform is to be used for diffe rent sets of parts, it is better to design it as a dowel-pin series basic board .展开更多

文摘Analytic hierarchy process(Group AHP) is combined with two different methods of assigning experts' priority to weight indicators in building energy efficiency assessment.One is to assign the experts' priority averagely,and the other is to use cluster analysis to assign experts' priority.The results show that,1) Different expert's priority assigns result in great different weights of indicators in building energy efficiency assessment,therefore,the method of assigning experts' priority should be taken into account carefully while weighting indicators of building energy efficiency assessment using Group AHP;2) Three indicators are found to be overwhelmingly important in residential building energy efficiency assessment in the hot summer and cold winter zone in China.They are 'Outdoor & indoor shadow','Heating & air-conditioning facilities' and 'Insulation of envelope';3) The method combining cluster analysis with Group AHP to weight indicator of building energy efficiency assessment has the advantage of finding overwhelming important indicator,whereas,some less important indicators have a tendency to be ignored.A useful reference is provided for building energy conservation including policy revision and energy efficient residential building design.

文摘In order to solve internal logistics problems of iron and steel works,such as low transportation efficiency of vehicles and high transportation cost,the production process and traditional transportation style of iron and steel works were introduced.The internal transport tasks of iron and steel works were grouped based on cluster analysis according to demand time of the transportation.An improved vehicle scheduling model of semi-trailer swap transport among loading nodes and unloading nodes in one task group was set up.The algorithm was designed to solve the vehicle routing problem with simultaneous pick-up and delivery(VRPSPD) problem based on semi-trailer swap transport.A solving program was written by MATLAB software and the method to figure out the optimal path of each grouping was obtained.The dropping and pulling transportation plan of the tractor was designed.And an example of semi-trailer swap transport in iron and steel works was given.The results indicate that semi-trailer swap transport can decrease the numbers of vehicles and drivers by 54.5% and 88.6% respectively compared with decentralized scheduling in iron and steel works,and the total distance traveled reduces by 43.5%.The semi-trailer swap transport can help the iron and steel works develop the production in intension.

文摘Multivariate statistical techniques,such as cluster analysis(CA),discriminant analysis(DA),principal component analysis(PCA) and factor analysis(FA),were applied to evaluate and interpret the surface water quality data sets of the Second Songhua River(SSHR) basin in China,obtained during two years(2012-2013) of monitoring of 10 physicochemical parameters at 15 different sites.The results showed that most of physicochemical parameters varied significantly among the sampling sites.Three significant groups,highly polluted(HP),moderately polluted(MP) and less polluted(LP),of sampling sites were obtained through Hierarchical agglomerative CA on the basis of similarity of water quality characteristics.DA identified p H,F,DO,NH3-N,COD and VPhs were the most important parameters contributing to spatial variations of surface water quality.However,DA did not give a considerable data reduction(40% reduction).PCA/FA resulted in three,three and four latent factors explaining 70%,62% and 71% of the total variance in water quality data sets of HP,MP and LP regions,respectively.FA revealed that the SSHR water chemistry was strongly affected by anthropogenic activities(point sources:industrial effluents and wastewater treatment plants;non-point sources:domestic sewage,livestock operations and agricultural activities) and natural processes(seasonal effect,and natural inputs).PCA/FA in the whole basin showed the best results for data reduction because it used only two parameters(about 80% reduction) as the most important parameters to explain 72% of the data variation.Thus,this work illustrated the utility of multivariate statistical techniques for analysis and interpretation of datasets and,in water quality assessment,identification of pollution sources/factors and understanding spatial variations in water quality for effective stream water quality management.

文摘Assessment of temporal and spatial variations in surface water quality is important to evaluate the health of a watershed and make necessary management decisions to control current and future pollution of receiving water bodies. In this work, surface water quality data for 12 physical and chemical parameters collected from 10 sampling sites in the Nenjiang River basin during the years(2012-2013) were analyzed. The results show that river water quality has significant temporal and spatial variations. Hierarchical cluster analysis(HCA) grouped 12 months into three periods(LF, MF and HF) and classified 10 monitoring sites into three regions(LP, MP and HP) based on the similarity of water quality characteristics. The principle component analysis(PCA)/factor analysis(FA) was used to recognize the factors or origins responsible for temporal and spatial water quality variations. Temporal and spatial PCA/FA revealed that the Nenjiang River water chemistry was strongly affected by rock/water interaction, hydrologic processes and anthropogenic activities. This work demonstrates that the application of HCA and PCA/FA has achieved meaningful classification based on temporal and spatial criteria.

文摘Background:Salt stress significantly inhibits the growth,development,and productivity of cotton because of osmotic,ionic,and oxidative stresses.Therefore,the screening and development of salt tolerant cotton cultivars is a key issue towards sustainable agriculture.This study subjected 11 upland cotton genotypes at the seedling growth stage to five different salt concentrations and evaluated their salt tolerance and reliable traits.Results:Several morpho-physiological traits were measured after 10 days of salinity treatment and the salt tolerance performance varied significantly among the tested cotton genotypes.The optimal Na Cl concentration for the evaluation of salt tolerance was 200 mmol·L-1.Membership function value and salt tolerance index were used to identify the most consistent salt tolerance traits.Leaf relative water content and photosynthesis were identified as reliable indicators for salt tolerance at the seedling stage.All considered traits related to salt tolerance indices were significantly and positively correlated with each other except for malondialdehyde.Cluster heat map analysis based on the morpho-physiological salt tolerance-indices clearly discriminated the 11 cotton genotypes into three different salt tolerance clusters.Cluster I represented the salt-tolerant genotypes(Z9807,Z0228,and Z7526)whereas clusters II(Z0710,Z7514,Z1910,and Z7516)and III(Z0102,Z7780,Z9648,and Z9612)represented moderately salttolerant and salt-sensitive genotypes,respectively.Conclusions:A hydroponic screening system was established.Leaf relative water content and photosynthesis were identified as two reliable traits that adequately represented the salt tolerance of cotton genotypes at the seedling growth stage.Furthermore,three salt-tolerant genotypes were identified,which might be used as genetic resources for the salt-tolerance breeding of cotton.

文摘Traditional DEA-based ranking techniques have some pitfalls such as ignoring the inherent differences among decision making units （DMUs）, or lacking a common weight-based ranking, etc. To overcome these obstacles, the paper first examines the possible differences among all DMUs such as the technical efficiency difference, the preference structure difference and the within-group position difference. Based upon the above differences this paper induces an integrated ranking measurement which helps to give a fair and full ranking for all DMUs under evaluation. Following the three types of differences, this approach behaves greatly elaborately, accurately and reasonably. Finally, the results from the Olympics achievement evaluation approve the acceptability of this approach.
文摘Background As the most widely cultivated fiber crop,cotton production depends on hybridization to unlock the yield potential of current varieties.A deep understanding of genetic dissection is crucial for the cultivation of enhanced hybrid plants with desired traits,such as high yield and fine fiber quality.In this study,the general combining ability(GCA)and specific combining ability(SCA)of yield and fiber quality of nine cotton parents(six lines and three testers)and eighteen F1 crosses produced using a line×tester mating design were analyzed.Results The results revealed significant effects of genotypes,parents,crosses,and interactions between parents and crosses for most of the studied traits.Moreover,the effects of both additive and non-additive gene actions played a notably significant role in the inheritance of most of the yield and fiber quality attributes.The F1 hybrids of(Giza 90×Aust)×Giza 86,Uzbekistan 1×Giza 97,and Giza 96×Giza 97 demonstrated superior performance due to their favorable integration of high yield attributes and premium fiber quality characteristics.Path analysis revealed that lint yield has the highest positive direct effect on seed cotton yield,while lint percentage showed the highest negative direct effect on seed cotton yield.Principal component analysis identified specific parents and hybrids associated with higher cotton yield,fiber quality,and other agronomic traits.Conclusion This study provides insights into identifying potential single-and three-way cross hybrids with superior cotton yield and fiber quality characteristics,laying a foundation for future research on improving fiber quality in cotton.

文摘Identification of plant-pathogenic fungi is time-consuming due to cultivation and microscopic examination and can be influenced by the interpretation of the micro-morphological characters observed.The present investigation aimed to create a simple but sophisticated method for the identification of plant-pathogenic fungi by Fourier transform infrared(FTIR)spectroscopy.In this study,FTIR-attenuated total reflectance(ATR)spectroscopy was used in combination with chemometric analysis for identification of important pathogenic fungi of horticultural plants.Mixtures of mycelia and spores from 27fungal strains belonging to nine different families were collected from liquid PD or solid PDA media cultures and subjected to FTIR-ATR spectroscopy measurements.The FTIR-ATR spectra ranging from 4 000to 400cm-1 were obtained.To classify the FTIRATR spectra,cluster analysis was compared with canonical vitiate analysis(CVA)in the spectral regions of3 050~2 800and 1 800~900cm-1.Results showed that the identification accuracies achieved 97.53%and99.18%for the cluster analysis and CVA analysis,respectively,demonstrating the high potential of this technique for fungal strain identification.
文摘This paper proposes a new machining method for part s using group technology suitable for workshop condition in China. The method divi des the parts of each product into similar kinds according to their features, an d installs each kind of parts on different working platforms. The working platfo rm, as a unit, is designed to be flexible and is interchangeable. It can be hung and fitted to the CNC working table. By changing the platforms in turn, nearly all the parts of one product can be processed with one CNC machine, and can be s ent directly to an assembly shop. Thus the number of management links is reduced and the production rate is increased. Several working platforms may be needed w hen several different types of parts are being processed. However, to reduce pro duction costs, it is necessary to limit the similarity coefficient of part class ification. The feature-coding classification is better for processing parts wit h this method. A practical classification code made by the author is for plastic injection machines. As an example, ten numbers (0～9) are used to express the d i fferent functions and the main features of the parts in the first code-rank. An insufficient classification may be offset by applying cut store and adjusting f unctions to the processing program in the CNC machine center, thereby allowing a set of parts which are not completely similar to be processed on a single worki ng platform. Before a set of parts with incompletely similar features is machine d on a working platform, it is necessary to plan reasonable technological proces s, for which we adopted an optimum method aimed to shorten the working period so as to increase production rate. The fixture planning for this processing method is also discussed in this paper. Modular fixture is recommended for mounting a set of parts on a working platform. In general, modular fixture has a basic boar d and a set of disassemble locating and clamping elements. Because the working p latform can be used directly as the main locating datum, it is unnecessary to de sign another basic board. However, if a working platform is to be used for diffe rent sets of parts, it is better to design it as a dowel-pin series basic board .
