An Improved Composite Multiscale Fuzzy Entropy for Feature Extraction of MI-EEG

Motor Imagery Electroencephalography (MI-EEG) has shown good prospects in neurorehabilitation, and the entropy-based nonlinear dynamic methods have been successfully applied to feature extraction of MI-EEG. Especially based on Multiscale Fuzzy Entropy (MFE), the fuzzy entropies of the τ coarse-grained sequences in τ scale are calculated and averaged to develop the Composite MFE (CMFE) with more feature information. However, the coarse-grained process fails to match the nonstationary characteristic of MI-EEG by a mean filtering algorithm. In this paper, CMFE is improved by assigning the different weight factors to the different sample points in the coarse-grained process, i.e., using the weighted mean filters instead of the original mean filters, which is conductive to signal filtering and feature extraction, and the resulting personalized Weighted CMFE (WCMFE) is more suitable to represent the nonstationary MI-EEG for different subjects. All the WCMFEs of multi-channel MI-EEG are fused in serial to construct the feature vector, which is evaluated by a back-propagation neural network. Based on a public dataset, extensive experiments are conducted, yielding a relatively higher classification accuracy by WCMFE, and the statistical significance is examined by two-sample t-test. The results suggest that WCMFE is superior to the other entropy-based and traditional feature extraction methods.     

福建登陆北上台风对杭州影响的对比分析

利用自动站观测资料、探空资料和全球预测系统（global forecast system，GFS）分析资料，结合统计分析、合成分析、对比分析以及物理量诊断等方法，对5个福建登陆北上并严重影响杭州的台风进行了分析，结果表明：（1）福建登陆北上影响杭州的5个台风可以分为两类，一类是福建登陆北上越过30°N（北上台风），另一类是刚进入浙南就减弱为低压（1010号莫兰蒂台风）。北上台风对杭州造成了大风和暴雨双重影响，而1010号莫兰蒂台风主要带来的是暴雨。（2）在北上台风对杭州产生较大影响时，其合成台风中心位于福建中部地区，东南风低空急流和偏南风低空急流显著，杭州处于台风环流第一象限两支急流的交汇处，利于产生暴雨、大风；而在1010号莫兰蒂台风对杭州产生较大影响时已减弱为热带低压环流，其北部倒槽与西风带冷空气相结合是产生特大暴雨的主要原因，低压环流与副高之间的偏南风急流也有利于暴雨形成。（3）两类台风虽然部分指数和空间热动力结构相近，但北上台风的水汽条件和动力条件更好，而1010号莫兰蒂台风在冷空气切入和斜压性增强作用下，具备更高的对流有效位能，出现对流性强降水的可能性更大。     

Synthesis of NiCo2S4 nanospheres/reduced graphene oxide composite as electrode material for supercapacitor

The NiCo₂S₄ nanospheres arrayed on the surface of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was fabricated via one-step hydrothermal method. The effect of initial feeding mass of Ni(NO₃)₂·6H₂O and Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O to rGO on the microstructure and electrochemical performance of the as-prepared composites was studied. The results indicated that the specific capacitances of the composites were first increased and then reduced due to the aggregation of NiCo₂S₄ nanospheres. NiCo₂S₄ nanospheres/rGO composites exhibited a remarkable specific capacitance of 1406 F/g and excellent cyclic stability of 82.36% at the current density of 1 A/g, which were better than those of individual NiCo₂S₄ (792 F/g and 64.77%) counterpart. These results showed that the as-prepared NiCo₂S₄ nanospheres/rGO composites were outstanding candidate for electrode material of supercapacitors.     

磁光平面波导的单向传播特性

表面磁等离子体(surfacemagnetoplasmons,SMPs)是一种在电介质和偏置磁场作用下磁光材料界面处传播的近场电磁波.其独特的非互易传播特性引起了大量科研工作的关注,但在具体的波导结构设计上仍存在很多问题.本文研究了一种银-硅-磁光材料的3层平面波导结构,SMPs在磁光材料和硅的界面处传播,发现在特定的频率范围内,SMPs的基模及高阶模式均具有正向或反向的单向传播特性.分别计算了旋磁与旋电材料平面波导的色散方程,研究了硅层厚度与外加磁场对能带结构及SMPs单向传播区域的影响,发现无论是旋磁或旋电材料的结构,硅层厚度的增加使高阶模式使高阶模式出现在更低的频率位置,使单向传输带宽变小甚至消失,外加磁场的变大使磁光材料的能带结构频率增大的同时带隙中也引入了高阶模式.计算了2种磁光材料平面波导的正向和反向的单向传播带宽宽度,发现旋磁材料YIG的单向SMPs模式出现在GHz波段,最大单向带宽可达到2.45 GHz;旋电材料InSb的单向SMPs模式出现在THz波段,最大单向带宽达到3.9 THz.

Synthesis and photocatalytic properties of sunlight-responsive BiOBr–CoWO4 heterostructured nanocomposites

Efficient sunlight-responsive BiOBr–CoWO₄ heterostructured nanocomposite photocatalysts were prepared via a chemical precipitation route at 100°C in 4 hours. The prepared BiOBr–CoWO₄ heterostructures were characterized for phase identification, chemical composition, surface morphology, optical properties and surface area using various techniques. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the BiOBr–CoWO₄ nanocomposite was composed of diffraction peaks equivalent to both the tetragonal phase of BiOBr and the monoclinic phase of CoWO₄ nanoparticles. X-ray photoelectron spectral study of the BiOBr–CoWO₄ nanocomposite revealed orbitals of both BiOBr and CoWO₄ compounds. Transmission electron microscopy images revealed that spherical particles of CoWO₄ (20–25 nm) were dispersed on the surface of BiOBr. UV–visible–near-infrared spectral study of the BiOBr–CoWO₄ nanocomposite showed good visible-light absorption. Among the manufactured materials, BiOBr–CoWO₄-2 nanocomposite showed better charge carrier separation efficiency, as demonstrated by photoluminescence and time-resolved fluorescence. To study the practical utility of the prepared materials, their photocatalytic capability was examined for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) aqueous solution under sunlight irradiation. The photodegradation results showed that BiOBr–CoWO₄-2 nanocomposite degraded 98.69% RhB solution and the degradation constant was 0.067 min⁻¹, which was 5.6 and 22.5 times larger than that of pure BiOBr and CoWO₄ nanoparticles, respectively, after 60 minutes of sunlight irradiation. The superior photoactivity was facilitated by electron–hole pair separation and transfer driven by the heterostructure interface between BiOBr particles and CoWO₄ nanoparticles. The removal of RhB was initiated by photogenerated h⁺, O₂^{• −} and ^•OH reactive species based on the scavenger effect.
