SPR-based Markov chain method for degree distributions of evolving networks

In this paper, we develop a stochastic process rules (SPR) based Markov chain method to calculate the degree distributions of evolving networks. This new approach overcomes two shortcomings of Shi, Chen and Liu’s use of the Markov chain method (Shi et al. 2005 [21]). In addition we show how an SPR-based Markov chain method can be effectively used to calculate degree distributions of random birth-and-death networks, which we believe to be novel. First SPR are introduced to replace traditional evolving rules (TR), making it possible to compute degree distributions in one sample space. Then the SPR-based Markov chain method is introduced and tested by using it to calculate two kinds of evolving network. Finally and most importantly, the SPR-based method is applied to the problem of calculating the degree distributions of random birth-and-death networks.     

单色光束的衍射度

受近期Gawhary和Severini在Opt.Lett.33,1360(2008)一文中引入的光束近轴度的启发,定义了一个独立于光束近轴度的衍射度参数来描述单色光束的衍射扩散程度,所定义的衍射度只依赖于光束的角谱分布,并可以定量比较不同光束的衍射扩散程度.     

Changes in the intensity distribution and polarization of non-uniformly polarized beams focused by a spherically aberrated lens with annular aperture

Based on the generalized Huygens-Fresnel diffraction integral and beam coherence polarization (BCP) matrix formulation, the focusing properties of a type of non-uniformly polarized (NUP) beam through a spherical aberrated lens with annular aperture are studied. The dependence of focal shift, intensity distribution, power in the bucket (PIB) and degree of polarization on the spherical aberration coefficient, obscure ratio and polarization parameters is illustrated numerically. The focusing of NUP beams by a spherically aberrated lens with circular aperture is treated as a special case, where the inner radius of the aperture is equal to zero.     

目标表面发射率对红外辐射偏振特性的影响分析

偏振探测不仅可以获得目标的光谱、强度、偏振态以及空间几何形状等参数,还可以获得更丰富的目标信息,有利于改善对目标的探测和识别能力。红外辐射偏振成像是近年来发展起来的一种新的红外探测技术,主要通过目标与场景的红外辐射偏振特性差异进行目标探测与识别。但由于红外辐射偏振信息在传输过程中,其偏振态会受到传输介质的影响,而通常基于实验分析总结目标红外偏振特性的方法难以对偏振传输过程中的影响因素进行估计,也不能定量描述各相关参数对于红外偏振信息的影响。通过微面元理论的双向反射分布函数模型,建立了基于偏振双向反射分布函数的红外辐射偏振传输方程, 推导分析了目标表面发射率对红外辐射偏振度的影响,结果表明：目标表面发射率对目标红外偏振度影响可以忽略;在理论分析基础上,有针对性的开展红外光谱偏振探测试验,试验数据分析与理论推导结论吻合。这表明：材料表面发射率的变化不影响目标表面的红外辐射偏振度。该研究成果有利于提高红外伪装探测的目标识别效率,可为进一步提高红外偏振成像系统的伪装目标探测提供新的途径和方法,如在伪装目标探测识别中,通过探测其表面的红外辐射偏振特性的改变实现伪装目标识别探测。     

Determination of the gas chromatographic elution sequences of the (+)- and (−)-enantiomers of stable atropisomeric PCBs on Chirasil-dex

Pure enantiomers of chiral (atropisomeric) polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography were used to establish the gas chromatographic elution sequences of the (+)- and (−)-enantiomers of six PCB atropisomers on Chirasil-Dex. The elution order was found to be (−/+) for PCBs 84, 132, 136, and 176 and (+/−) for PCBs 135 and 174. The retention characteristics of all 19 tri- and tetra-ortho atropisomeric PCBs were also investigated. Nine of the atropisomers could be separated using this chiral selector. PCBs 95, 132, and 149 were completely resovled and PCBs 84, 91, 135, 136, 174, and 176 were partially separated (R = 0.7–0.9). All of the separated congeners are 2,3,6-substituted in at least one ring, and conversely – none of the congeners that lacks 2,3,6-substitution could be separated. Thus, chiral recognition and enantiomer separation seems to be strongly governed by 2,3,6-substitution.     

On a new class of multiplicative pseudo-random number generators

In the computing literature, there are few detailed analytical studies of the global statistical characteristics of a class of multiplicative pseudo-random number generators.We comment briefly on normal numbers and study analytically the approximately uniform discrete distribution or (j,)-normality in the sense of Besicovitch for complete periods of fractional parts {x _{0 1} ⁱ /p} on [0, 1] fori=0, 1,..., (p–1)p^–1–1, i.e. in current terminology, generators given byx _{n+1 1} x _n mod p wheren=0, 1,..., (p–1)p ^–1–1,p is any odd prime, (x ₀,p)=1, ₁ is a primitive root modp ², and 1 is any positive integer.We derive the expectationsE(X, ),E(X ², ),E(X _nX_n+k); the varianceV(X, ), and the serial correlation coefficient k. By means of Dedekind sums and some results of H. Rademacher, we investigate the asymptotic properties of k for various lagsk and integers 1 and give numerical illustrations. For the frequently used case =1, we find comparable results to estimates of Coveyou and Jansson as well as a mathematical demonstration of a so-called rule of thumb related to the choice of ₁ for small k.Due to the number of parameters in this class of generators, it may be possible to obtain increased control over the statistical behavior of these pseudo-random sequences both analytically as well as computationally.     

An alignment-free measure based on physicochemical properties of amino acids for protein sequence comparison

Sequence comparison is an important topic in bioinformatics. With the exponential increase of biological sequences, the traditional protein sequence comparison methods — the alignment methods become limited, so the alignment-free methods are widely proposed in the past two decades. In this paper, we considered not only the six typical physicochemical properties of amino acids, but also their frequency and positional distribution. A 51-dimensional vector was obtained to describe the protein sequence. We got a pairwise distance matrix by computing the standardized Euclidean distance, and discriminant analysis and phylogenetic analysis can be made. The results on the Influenza A virus and ND5 datasets indicate that our method is accurate and efficient for classifying proteins and inferring the phylogeny of species.     

Extended well-posedness of optimization problems

The well-posedness concept introduced in Ref. 1 for global optimization problems with a unique solution is generalized here to problems with many minimizers, under the name of extended well-posedness. It is shown that this new property can be characterized by metric criteria, which parallel to some extent those known about generalized Tikhonov well-posedness.This work was partially supported by MURST, Fondi 40%, Rome, Italy.
