Establishment and experimental verification of infrared BRDF model in rough surface

Because of the thermal radiation from materials, the influence of spontaneous radiation on infrared-material—BRDF could not be neglected. In this paper, the spatial distribution characteristics of the material spontaneous radiation energy are analyzed. Then a full infrared BRDF semi-physical model in rough surface is developed by incorporating the characteristic parameters of the material spontaneous radiation into the five-parameter BRDF model. Finally, the model is verified using experimental data. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model error is less than 1%. The semi-physical model is more suitable for describing real physical process, and can be applied to analyze stray radiation of infrared optical system and target infrared characteristics.     

Determining the quality of insulating oils using near infrared spectroscopy and wavelength selection

This study presents an analytical method for determining interfacial tension and relative density in insulating oils using near infrared spectrometry (NIR). Five different strategies of regression were evaluated: partial least squares (PLS) with significant regression coefficients selected by jack-knife algorithm; interval PLS (iPLS); multiple linear regression (MLR) with variable selection by genetic algorithm (MLR/GA), successive projections algorithm (MLR/SPA) and stepwise strategy (SR/MLR). The overall results point to MLR/SPA as the best modeling strategy. The strategy is simpler and uses fewer spectral variables.

Population genetics and forensic efficiency of twenty‐one novel microsatellite loci of Chinese Yi ethnic group

In this study, we investigated polymorphic distributions of allelic frequencies and forensic genetic parameters of 21 novel autosomal microsatellite loci from 110 unrelated healthy individuals of Chinese Yi ethnic group. Expected heterozygosity, power of discrimination, and polymorphic information content ranged from 0.617 to 0.812, 0.777 to 0.936 and 0.560 to 0.790. The microsatellite loci showed high forensic efficiency. The total discrimination power and cumulate probability of exclusion were 0.99999999999999999986902 and 0.999998818, respectively. Locus‐by‐locus allelic frequencies were compared using analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) method, and the statistically significant differences were observed between Yi group and Russian, Tujia, Kazak, Bai, Ningxia Han, Salar, Tibetan, and Uigur groups at 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 12, and 13 loci, respectively. The results of genetic distance comparisons, genetic structure analyses, and principal component analysis all indicated that the Yi group showed relatively short genetic relationships with Russian, Salar, and Bai group. The experimental results showed that the 21 loci in the multiplex system provided highly polymorphic information and forensic efficiency for forensic individual identification and paternity testing, also basic population data for population genetics and anthropological research.     

Seven nonsynonymous SNPs in the gene encoding human deoxyribonuclease II may serve as a functional SNP potentially implicated in autoimmune dysfunction

Many nonsynonymous SNPs in the human DNase II gene (DNASE2), potentially relevant to autoimmunity in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, have been identified, but only limited population data are available and no studies have evaluated whether such SNPs are functional. Genotyping of all the 15 nonsynonymous human DNase II SNPs was performed in three ethnic groups including 16 different populations using the PCR‐restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. A series of constructs corresponding to each SNP was examined. Fifteen nonsynonymous SNPs in the gene, except for p.Val206Ile in a Korean population, exhibited a mono‐allelic distribution in all of the populations. On the basis of alterations in the activity levels resulting from the corresponding amino acid substitutions, four activity‐abolishing and five activity‐reducing SNPs were confirmed to be functional. The amino acid residues in activity‐abolishing SNPs were conserved in animal DNase II. All the nonsynonymous SNPs that affected the catalytic activity of human DNase II showed extremely low genetic heterogeneity. However, a minor allele of seven SNPs producing a loss‐of‐function or extremely low activity‐harboring variant could serve as a genetic risk factor for autoimmune dysfunction. These functional SNPs in DNASE2 may have clinical implications in relation to the prevalence of autoimmune diseases.

大豆冠层多光谱图像提取方法

为解决大豆冠层在近地端的多光谱图像边缘灰度不均,目标与背景之间灰度差别小,难以准确高效地获取大豆冠层目标区域的难题,将多光谱成像处理技术与经典图像分割方法有机融合,提出基于多光谱图像处理技术的大豆冠层提取方法。以东北大豆为对象,通过Sequoia多光谱相机采集绿光、近红外、红光、红边和可见光五类大豆多光谱图像,采用高斯平滑滤波法对原始大豆多光谱图像进行预处理,分析多光谱图像中大豆冠层和背景的灰度直方图分布特性,在此基础上利用迭代法、Otsu法和局部阈值法提取原大豆多光谱图像中冠层区域,并以图像形态学开运算处理细化和扩张背景,避免图像区域内干扰噪声对大豆冠层识别效果的影响,同时以有效分割率、过分割率、欠分割率、信息熵以及运行时间等为监督指标,对大豆冠层多光谱图像识别模型进行效果评价。大豆冠层识别模型中迭代法可以有效分割近红外和可见光大豆冠层图像,有效分割率分别为97.81%和87.99%,对绿光、红光和红边大豆冠层图像分割效果较差,有效分割率低于70%;Otsu法和局部阈值法可以有效分割除红光波段的其余四种多光谱大豆冠层图像,且有效分割率均在82%以上;三种算法对红光大豆冠层图像的有效分割率均低于20%,未达到较好效果。在原始多光谱图像中应用迭代法、Otsu法和局部阈值法提取大豆冠层图像与标准图像的信息熵平均值波动幅度分别为：0.120 1,0.054 7和0.059 8,其中Otsu法和局部阈值法较小,表明了对于大豆冠层多光谱图像识别中两种算法的有效性。该算法中Otsu法和局部阈值法均可以有效提取绿光、近红外、红边和可见光等多光谱的大豆冠层图像,二者较为完整地保留了大豆冠层信息,其中Otsu法实时性能较局部阈值法更好。该成果为提取农作物冠层多光谱图像提供理论依据和技术借鉴。     

SiPLS-CARS与GA-ELM对哈密瓜冠层叶片含水率的反演估测

传统的叶片含水率检测方法效率低、操作繁琐且是有损的检测,不利于大田哈密瓜叶片含水率的快速获取。为实现对大田哈密瓜生长期进行更精细的田间灌水管理,利用光谱技术分别获取了哈密瓜植株在成长期（M₁）、开花期（M₂）、结果期（M₃）、成熟期（M₄）四个时期内的冠层叶片样本,采用烘干法测得叶片样本的含水率。为提高预测模型的精度和稳定性,首先开展并讨论极限学习机（ELM）模型中的核函数与隐含层神经元个数的选择对ELM模型精度的影响。随后分别利用联合子区间偏最小二乘法（SiPLS）及其与竞争性自适应重加权采样法（CARS）、遗传算法（GA）、连续投影算法（SPA）的组合算法对全波段光谱数据中与叶片含水率相关性高的特征波长进行筛选提取。再分别使用GA与粒子群算法（PSO ）对已经确定最佳核函数与隐含层神经元个数的ELM模型中的输入层与隐含层间的连接权值（W）和隐含层神经元阈值（B）进行优化选择,获取最优且稳定的W与B值,进一步提高模型的稳定性和预测精度。最后将四种特征波长提取算法优选出的特征波长分别进行ELM,GA-ELM,PSO-ELM建模分析,以校正集和预测集的相关系数R_c与R_p为模型评价指标,经过对比分析优选出能准确预测哈密瓜冠层叶片含水率的反演估测模型。采用SiPLS及其与CARS,GA和SPA的组合算法提取特征波长,筛选出的变量数分别为273,20,32和6,占全光谱变量的15.6%,1.2%,1.9%和0.03%。进一步将筛选出的特征波长作为自变量,叶片的含水率作为因变量,建立了ELM的预测模型,最佳预测精度R_p值为0.845 0,预测精度不是很理想。故引入GA与PSO对ELM中随机产生的W与B值进行优化选择。最终,经过研究发现,利用GA优化后的ELM模型结合SiPLS-CARS筛选出的特征波长建立的哈密瓜冠层叶片含水率预测精度最优,故反演叶片含水率的最优建模方式为SiPLS-CARS-GA-ELM,R_c值为0.928 9,R_p值为0.903 2,所建模型精度较高,可为大田哈密瓜冠层叶片的含水率进行快速检测,为田间灌溉管理提供科学依据。     

Continuous-unconstrained and global optimization for PSO-PTS based PAPR reduction of OFDM signals

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a superior technology for the high-speed data rate of wire-line and wireless communication systems. However, one of the major drawbacks of OFDM signals is the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) problem inherent in 5G waveform design. High PAPR causes OFDM signal distortion in the nonlinear region of the high power amplifier (HPA), and signal distortion leads to a decrease in bit error rate (BER). Partial transmit sequence (PTS) technique is a very attractive technique for PAPR reduction. However, to match the optimum condition on PTS for PAPR reduction, the computational unpredictability and cost of traditional PTS strategy are enormous, thus it is urgent to enhance computational efficiency to obtain the optimal PTS. In this paper, an improved scheme called Continuous-Unconstrained Particle Swarm Optimization based PTS (CUPSO-PTS) technique for optimum phase rotation factors searching is presented. A class of continuous-phase PTS schemes has been proposed to obtain the global optimal phase factor, and the theoretical boundaries can be determined in the continuous-unconstrained searching space. Conversely, when the phase factor values in continuous-unconstrained domain, the equivalent unconstrained PTS optimization can drastically accelerate convergence and reduce total calculation cost. In this paper, we compare the performance of Binary PSO based PTS (BPSO-PTS) scheme and Elitist Genetic Algorithm based PTS (EGA-PTS) scheme for 16-QAM modulation scheme. Theoretical analysis and simulations show that the proposed CUPSO-PTS scheme could provide a significant PAPR reduction in the OFDM system, which outperforms the OFDM systems with the traditional PTS scheme by 0.55 dB at CCDF of 10⁻³ in PAPR reduction. And 84.74% computational complexity is saved.     

Continuous optimization methods for ground-state searches of spin clusters

Computational methods were developed for ground-state searches of Heisenberg model spin clusters in which spin sites were represented by classical spin vectors. Simulated annealing, continuous genetic algorithm, and particle swarm optimization methods were applied for solving the problems. Because the results of these calculations were influenced by the settings of optimization parameters, effective parameter settings were also investigated. The results indicated that a continuous genetic algorithm is the most effective method for ground-state searches of Heisenberg model spin clusters, and that a mutation operator plays an important role in this genetic algorithm. These results provide useful information for solving physically or chemically important continuous optimization problems.
