However, in practical applications, only limited standard samples with labeled certified concentrations are available. A novel semi-supervised LIBS quantitative analysis method is proposed, based on co-training regression model with selection of effective unlabeled samples. The main idea of the proposed method is to obtain better regression performance by adding effective unlabeled samples in semisupervised learning. First, effective unlabeled samples are selected according to the testing samples by Euclidean metric. Two original regression models based on least squares support vector machine with different parameters are trained by the labeled samples separately, and then the effective unlabeled samples predicted by the two models are used to enlarge the training dataset based on labeling confidence estimation. The final predictions of the proposed method on the testing samples will be determined by weighted combinations of the predictions of two updated regression models. Chromium concentration analysis experiments of 23 certified standard high-alloy steel samples were carried out, in which 5 samples with labeled concentrations and 11 unlabeled samples were used to train the regression models and the remaining 7 samples were used for testing. With the numbers of effective unlabeled samples increasing, the root mean square error of the proposed method went down from 1.80% to 0.84% and the relative prediction error was reduced from 9.15% to 4.04%.展开更多

文摘Label propagation is an essential semi-supervised learning method based on graphs,which has a broad spectrum of applications in pattern recognition and data mining.This paper proposes a quantum semi-supervised classifier based on label propagation.Considering the difficulty of graph construction,we develop a variational quantum label propagation(VQLP)method.In this method,a locally parameterized quantum circuit is created to reduce the parameters required in the optimization.Furthermore,we design a quantum semi-supervised binary classifier based on hybrid Bell and Z bases measurement,which has a shallower circuit depth and is more suitable for implementation on near-term quantum devices.We demonstrate the performance of the quantum semi-supervised classifier on the Iris data set,and the simulation results show that the quantum semi-supervised classifier has higher classification accuracy than the swap test classifier.This work opens a new path to quantum machine learning based on graphs.

文摘Deep learning has achieved great success in a variety of research fields and industrial applications.However,when applied to seismic inversion,the shortage of labeled data severely influences the performance of deep learning-based methods.In order to tackle this problem,we propose a novel seismic impedance inversion method based on a cycle-consistent generative adversarial network(Cycle-GAN).The proposed Cycle-GAN model includes two generative subnets and two discriminative subnets.Three kinds of loss,including cycle-consistent loss,adversarial loss,and estimation loss,are adopted to guide the training process.Benefit from the proposed structure,the information contained in unlabeled data can be extracted,and adversarial learning further guarantees that the prediction results share similar distributions with the real data.Moreover,a neural network visualization method is adopted to show that the proposed CNN model can learn more distinguishable features than the conventional CNN model.The robustness experiments on synthetic data sets show that the proposed method can achieve better performances than other methods in most cases.And the blind-well experiments on real seismic profiles show that the predicted impedance curve of the proposed method maintains a better correlation with the true impedance curve.

文摘Generative adversarial network(GAN)has achieved great success in many fields such as computer vision,speech processing,and natural language processing,because of its powerful capabilities for generating realistic samples.In this paper,we introduce GAN into the field of electromagnetic signal classification(ESC).ESC plays an important role in both military and civilian domains.However,in many specific scenarios,we can’t obtain enough labeled data,which cause failure of deep learning methods because they are easy to fall into over-fitting.Fortunately,semi-supervised learning(SSL)can leverage the large amount of unlabeled data to enhance the classification performance of classifiers,especially in scenarios with limited amount of labeled data.We present an SSL framework by incorporating GAN,which can directly process the raw in-phase and quadrature(IQ)signal data.According to the characteristics of the electromagnetic signal,we propose a weighted loss function,leading to an effective classifier to realize the end-to-end classification of the electromagnetic signal.We validate the proposed method on both public RML2016.04c dataset and real-world Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System(ACARS)signal dataset.Extensive experimental results show that the proposed framework obtains a significant increase in classification accuracy compared with the state-of-the-art studies.

文摘Lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries are notable for their high theoretical energy density,but the‘shuttle effect’and the limited conversion kinetics of Li-S species can downgrade their actual performance.An essential strategy is to design anchoring materials(AMs)to appropriately adsorb Li-S species.Herein,we propose a new three-procedure protocol,named InfoAd(Informative Adsorption)to evaluate the anchoring of Li_(2)S on two-dimensional(2D)materials and disclose the underlying importance of material features by combining high-throughput calculation workflow and machine learning(ML).In this paradigm,we calculate the anchoring of Li_(2)S on 12552D A_(x)B_(y)(B in the VIA/VIIA group)materials and pick out 44(un)reported nontoxic 2D binary A_(x)B_(y)AMs,in which the importance of the geometric features on the anchoring effect is revealed by ML for the first time.We develop a new Infograph model for crystals to accurately predict whether a material has a moderate binding with Li_(2)S and extend it to all 2D materials.Our InfoAd protocol elucidates the underlying structure-property relationship of Li_(2)S adsorption on 2D materials and provides a general research framework of adsorption-related materials for catalysis and energy/substance storage.

文摘Semantic segmentation of urban scenes is an enabling factor for a wide range of applications.With the development of deep learning in recent years,semantic segmentation tasks using high-capacity models have achieved considerable successes on large datasets.However,the pixel-level annotation process,especially for urban scene images with various objects,is tedious and labor intensive.Meanwhile,the scale of the unlabeled data,which is currently easy to collect,is often much larger than labeled data.Thus,using the abundant unlabeled data to make up the loss of the segmentation model from insufficient labeled data is of great interest.In this paper,we propose a semi-supervised method based on reinforcement learning to capture the contextual information from the unlabeled data to improve the model trained on the small scale labeled data.Both quantitative and qualitative experiments have shown the effectiveness of the proposed method.
