Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) has become a standard method to quantify the correlations and scaling properties of real-world complex time series. For a given scale ℓ of observation, DFA provides the function , which quantifies the fluctuations of the time series around the local trend, which is substracted (detrended). If the time series exhibits scaling properties, then asymptotically, and the scaling exponent is typically estimated as the slope of a linear fitting in the vs. plot. In this way, measures the strength of the correlations and characterizes the underlying dynamical system. However, in many cases, and especially in a physiological time series, the scaling behavior is different at short and long scales, resulting in vs. plots with two different slopes, at short scales and at large scales of observation. These two exponents are usually associated with the existence of different mechanisms that work at distinct time scales acting on the underlying dynamical system. Here, however, and since the power-law behavior of is asymptotic, we question the use of to characterize the correlations at short scales. To this end, we show first that, even for artificial time series with perfect scaling, i.e., with a single exponent valid for all scales, DFA provides an value that systematically overestimates the true exponent . In addition, second, when artificial time series with two different scaling exponents at short and large scales are considered, the value provided by DFA not only can severely underestimate or overestimate the true short-scale exponent, but also depends on the value of the large scale exponent. This behavior should prevent the use of to describe the scaling properties at short scales: if DFA is used in two time series with the same scaling behavior at short scales but very different scaling properties at large scales, very different values of will be obtained, although the short scale properties are identical. These artifacts may lead to wrong interpretations when analyzing real-world time series: on the one hand, for time series with truly perfect scaling, the spurious value of could lead to wrongly thinking that there exists some specific mechanism acting only at short time scales in the dynamical system. On the other hand, for time series with true different scaling at short and large scales, the incorrect value would not characterize properly the short scale behavior of the dynamical system. 相似文献

We use Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) data to study electron kinetic entropy per particle across Earth’s quasi-perpendicular bow shock. We have selected 22 shock crossings covering a wide range of shock conditions. Measured distribution functions are calibrated and corrected for spacecraft potential, secondary electron contamination, lack of measurements at the lowest energies and electron density measurements based on plasma frequency measurements. All crossings display an increase in electron kinetic entropy across the shock being positive or zero within their error margin. There is a strong dependence of on the change in electron temperature, , and the upstream electron plasma beta, . Shocks with large have large . Shocks with smaller are associated with larger . We use the values of , and density change to determine the effective adiabatic index of electrons for each shock crossing. The average effective adiabatic index is . 相似文献

We report an analysis of the distribution of lengths of plant DNA (exons). Three species of Cucurbitaceae were investigated. In our study, we used two distinct distribution functions, namely, -Maxwellian and double-, to fit the length distributions. To determine which distribution has the best fitting, we made a Bayesian analysis of the models. Furthermore, we filtered the data, removing outliers, through a box plot analysis. Our findings show that the sum of -exponentials is the most appropriate to adjust the distribution curves and that the values of the parameter do not undergo considerable changes after filtering. Furthermore, for the analyzed species, there is a tendency for the parameter to lay within the interval . 相似文献

This paper combines the mechanical efficiency theory and finite time thermodynamic theory to perform optimization on an irreversible Stirling heat-engine cycle, in which heat transfer between working fluid and heat reservoir obeys linear phenomenological heat-transfer law. There are mechanical losses, as well as heat leakage, thermal resistance, and regeneration loss. We treated temperature ratio of working fluid and volume compression ratio as optimization variables, and used the NSGA-II algorithm to carry out multi-objective optimization on four optimization objectives, namely, dimensionless shaft power output , braking thermal efficiency , dimensionless efficient power and dimensionless power density . The optimal solutions of four-, three-, two-, and single-objective optimizations are reached by selecting the minimum deviation indexes with the three decision-making strategies, namely, TOPSIS, LINMAP, and Shannon Entropy. The optimization results show that the reached by TOPSIS and LINMAP strategies are both 0.1683 and better than the Shannon Entropy strategy for four-objective optimization, while the s reached for single-objective optimizations at maximum , , , and conditions are 0.1978, 0.8624, 0.3319, and 0.3032, which are all bigger than 0.1683. This indicates that multi-objective optimization results are better when choosing appropriate decision-making strategies. 相似文献

The parameters revealing the collective behavior of hadronic matter extracted from the transverse momentum spectra of , , , , p, , , , , or , and or or produced in the most central and most peripheral gold–gold (–), copper–copper (–) and lead–lead (–) collisions at 62.4 GeV, 200 GeV and 2760 GeV, respectively, are reported. In addition to studying the nucleus–nucleus () collisions, we analyzed the particles mentioned above produced in collisions at the same center of mass energies (62.4 GeV, 200 GeV and 2760 GeV) to compare with the most peripheral collisions. We used the Tsallis–Pareto type function to extract the effective temperature from the transverse momentum spectra of the particles. The effective temperature is slightly larger in a central collision than in a peripheral collision and is mass-dependent. The mean transverse momentum and the multiplicity parameter () are extracted and have the same result as the effective temperature. All three extracted parameters in collisions are closer to the peripheral collisions at the same center of mass energy, revealing that the extracted parameters have the same thermodynamic nature. Furthermore, we report that the mean transverse momentum in the – collision is larger than that of the – and – collisions. At the same time, the latter two are nearly equal, which shows their comparatively strong dependence on energy and weak dependence on the size of the system. The multiplicity parameter, in central , depends on the interacting system’s size and is larger for the bigger system. 相似文献

Based on plasma kinetic theory, the dispersion and Landau damping of Langmuir and ion-acoustic waves carrying finite orbital angular momentum (OAM) were investigated in the -deformed Kaniadakis distributed plasma system. The results showed that the peculiarities of the investigated subjects relied on the deformation parameter and OAM parameter . For both Langmuir and ion-acoustic waves, dispersion was enhanced with increased , while the Landau damping was suppressed. Conversely, both the dispersion and Landau damping were depressed by OAM. Moreover, the results coincided with the straight propagating plane waves in a Maxwellian plasma system when and . It was expected that the present results would give more insight into the trapping and transportation of plasma particles and energy. 相似文献

Moreover, we provide numerical simulations for sfBm and related Vasicek-type process with different values of the Hurst index H. 相似文献

Private Information Retrieval (PIR) protocols, which allow the client to obtain data from servers without revealing its request, have many applications such as anonymous communication, media streaming, blockchain security, advertisement, etc. Multi-server PIR protocols, where the database is replicated among the non-colluding servers, provide high efficiency in the information-theoretic setting. Beimel et al. in CCC 12’ (further referred to as BIKO) put forward a paradigm for constructing multi-server PIR, capturing several previous constructions for servers, as well as improving the best-known share complexity for 3-server PIR. A key component there is a share conversion scheme from corresponding linear three-party secret sharing schemes with respect to a certain type of “modified universal” relation. In a useful particular instantiation of the paradigm, they used a share conversion from -CNF over to three-additive sharing over for primes where and , and the relation is modified universal relation . They reduced the question of the existence of the share conversion for a triple to the (in)solvability of a certain linear system over , and provided an efficient (in ) construction of such a sharing scheme. Unfortunately, the size of the system is which entails the infeasibility of a direct solution for big m’s in practice. Paskin-Cherniavsky and Schmerler in 2019 proved the existence of the conversion for the case of odd , when , obtaining in this way infinitely many parameters for which the conversion exists, but also for infinitely many of them it remained open. In this work, using some algebraic techniques from the work of Paskin-Cherniavsky and Schmerler, we prove the existence of the conversion for even m’s in case (we computed in this case) and the absence of the conversion for even m’s in case . This does not improve the concrete efficiency of 3-server PIR; however, our result is promising in a broader context of constructing PIR through composition techniques with servers, using the relation where m has more than two prime divisors. Another our suggestion about 3-server PIR is that it’s possible to achieve a shorter server’s response using the relation for extended . By computer search, in BIKO framework we found several such sets for small m’s which result in share conversion from -CNF over to 3-additive secret sharing over , where is several times less than , which implies several times shorter server’s response. We also suggest that such extended sets can result in better PIR due to the potential existence of matching vector families with the higher Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension. 相似文献

In this paper, a methodology for a non-linear system state estimation is demonstrated, exploiting the input and parameter observability. For this purpose, the initial system is transformed into the canonical observability form, and the function that aggregates the non-linear dynamics of the system, which may be unknown or difficult to be computed, is approximated by a linear combination of Laguerre polynomials. Hence, the system identification translates into the estimation of the parameters involved in the linear combination in order for the system to be observable. For the validation of the elaborated observer, we consider a biological model from the literature, investigating whether it is practically possible to infer its states, taking into account the new coordinates to design the appropriate observer of the system states. Through simulations, we investigate the parameter settings under which the new observer can identify the state of the system. More specifically, as the parameter increases, the system converges more quickly to the steady-state, decreasing the respective distance from the system’s initial state. As for the first state, the estimation error is in the order of for , and assuming . Under the same conditions, the estimation error of the system’s second state is in the order of , setting a performance difference of in relation to the first state. The outcomes show that the proposed observer’s performance can be further improved by selecting even higher values of . Hence, the system is observable through the measurement output. 相似文献

A possible detection of sub-solar mass ultra-compact objects would lead to new perspectives on the existence of black holes that are not of astrophysical origin and/or pertain to formation scenarios of exotic ultra-compact objects. Both possibilities open new perspectives for better understanding of our universe. In this work, we investigate the significance of detection of sub-solar mass binaries with components mass in the range: up to 1, within the expected sensitivity of the ground-based gravitational waves detectors of third generation, viz., the Einstein Telescope (ET) and the Cosmic Explorer (CE). Assuming a minimum of amplitude signal-to-noise ratio for detection, viz., , we find that the maximum horizon distances for an ultra-compact binary system with components mass and 1 are 40 Mpc and 1.89 Gpc, respectively, for ET, and 125 Mpc and 5.8 Gpc, respectively, for CE. Other cases are also presented in the text. We derive the merger rate and discuss consequences on the abundances of primordial black hole (PBH), . Considering the entire mass range [–1], we find (<) for ET (CE), respectively. 相似文献

According to the established model of a single resonance energy selective electron refrigerator with heat leakage in the previous literature, this paper performs multi-objective optimization with finite-time thermodynamic theory and NSGA-II algorithm. Cooling load (), coefficient of performance (), ecological function (), and figure of merit () of the ESER are taken as objective functions. Energy boundary and resonance width are regarded as optimization variables and their optimal intervals are obtained. The optimal solutions of quadru-, tri-, bi-, and single-objective optimizations are obtained by selecting the minimum deviation indices with three approaches of TOPSIS, LINMAP, and Shannon Entropy; the smaller the value of deviation index, the better the result. The results show that values of and are closely related to the values of the four optimization objectives; selecting the appropriate values of the system can design the system for optimal performance. The deviation indices are 0.0812 with LINMAP and TOPSIS approaches for four-objective optimization (), while the deviation indices are 0.1085, 0.8455, 0.1865, and 0.1780 for four single-objective optimizations of maximum , , , and , respectively. Compared with single-objective optimization, four-objective optimization can better take different optimization objectives into account by choosing appropriate decision-making approaches. The optimal values of and range mainly from 12 to 13, and 1.5 to 2.5, respectively, for the four-objective optimization. 相似文献

Based on Kedem–Katchalsky formalism, the model equation of the membrane potential () generated in a membrane system was derived for the conditions of concentration polarization. In this system, a horizontally oriented electro-neutral biomembrane separates solutions of the same electrolytes at different concentrations. The consequence of concentration polarization is the creation, on both sides of the membrane, of concentration boundary layers. The basic equation of this model includes the unknown ratio of solution concentrations ( at the membrane/concentration boundary layers. We present the calculation procedure ( based on novel equations derived in the paper containing the transport parameters of the membrane (, , and ), solutions (, ), concentration boundary layer thicknesses (, ), concentration Raileigh number (), concentration polarization factor (), volume flux (), mechanical pressure difference (), and ratio of known solution concentrations (). From the resulting equation, was calculated for various combinations of the solution concentration ratio (), the Rayleigh concentration number (), the concentration polarization coefficient (), and the hydrostatic pressure difference ). Calculations were performed for a case where an aqueous NaCl solution with a fixed concentration of 1 mol m−3 () was on one side of the membrane and on the other side an aqueous NaCl solution with a concentration between 1 and 15 mol m−3 (). It is shown that () depends on the value of one of the factors (i.e., , , and ) at a fixed value of the other three. 相似文献

In this work, first, we consider novel parameterized identities for the left and right part of the -analogue of Hermite–Hadamard inequality. Second, using these new parameterized identities, we give new parameterized -trapezoid and parameterized -midpoint type integral inequalities via -quasiconvex function. By changing values of parameter , some new special cases from the main results are obtained and some known results are recaptured as well. Finally, at the end, an application to special means is given as well. This new research has the potential to establish new boundaries in comparative literature and some well-known implications. From an application perspective, the proposed research on the -quasiconvex function has interesting results that illustrate the applicability and superiority of the results obtained. 相似文献

The axisymmetric time-fractional diffusion equation with mass absorption is studied in a circle under the time-harmonic Dirichlet boundary condition. The Caputo derivative of the order is used. The investigated equation can be considered as the time-fractional generalization of the bioheat equation and the Klein–Gordon equation. Different formulations of the problem for integer values of the time-derivatives and are also discussed. The integral transform technique is employed. The outcomes of numerical calculations are illustrated graphically for different values of the parameters. 相似文献

In this work, a finite element (FE) method is discussed for the 3D steady Navier–Stokes equations by using the finite element pair . The method consists of transmitting the finite element solution of the 3D steady Navier–Stokes equations into the finite element solution pairs based on the finite element space pair of the 3D steady linearized Navier–Stokes equations by using the Stokes, Newton and Oseen iterative methods, where the finite element space pair satisfies the discrete inf-sup condition in a 3D domain . Here, we present the weak formulations of the FE method for solving the 3D steady Stokes, Newton and Oseen iterative equations, provide the existence and uniqueness of the FE solution of the 3D steady Stokes, Newton and Oseen iterative equations, and deduce the convergence with respect to of the FE solution to the exact solution of the 3D steady Navier–Stokes equations in the norm. Finally, we also give the convergence order with respect to of the FE velocity to the exact velocity u of the 3D steady Navier–Stokes equations in the norm. 相似文献
