The influence of a series of alkyl alcohols on the work function of PEDOT:PSS thin films is systematically investigated by Kelvin probe measurements. We show that the PEDOT:PSS work function can be increased stepwise from 5.2 eV for pristine PEDOT:PSS to 5.61 eV using either alcohols with different alkyl chain length or varying the amount of alcohol in mixtures with chlorobenzene. Moreover, we demonstrate the effect of work function modification on merocyanine based bulk heterojunction solar cells, resulting in improved values for the open-circuit voltage comparable to those obtained with high work function MoO3. Thus, the processing method presented herein can potentially serve as a simple, alternative route to adjustable and high work function electrodes while maintaining processability from solution. 相似文献
Since the introduction of bender element tests to soil testing, the reliability of the estimated travel time has been the most serious problem. The author has previously shown a potential solution whereby removing the response of the bender element subsystem from the whole response could dramatically improve the accuracy of the travel time estimation. In order to lay the foundation for estimating the response of the bender element subsystem, this paper examines the correlation between the displacements of the element and the induced feedback signals by employing a self-monitoring element. The response of the self-monitoring element is modeled as a transfer function involving two internal transfer functions that relate the input signals to the displacements and the displacements to the feedback signals, respectively. Using a laser displacement sensor, the displacements are directly measured through the entire surface and reveal the three-dimensional bending motion of the element oscillating in both longitudinal and width directions. The feedback signals are similar to, but inconsistent with, the tip displacements, and an attempt is made to correct the feedback signals. Finally, a conclusion is given on the potential for estimating the response of the bender element subsystem using the self-monitoring element. 相似文献
Metamerism phenomenon can be used in illuminant detection to ensure the accuracy of light source. A method based on Long‐, Middle‐, Short‐ wavelength cones(LMS) weighting algorithm to evaluate metamerism degree is proposed. The chromatic relationship between the degree of metamerism mismatch and the light source is studied. Herein, the consistency between the metameric indices (MIs) and CIE1976 L*a*b* color difference ranking is analyzed by SRCC, KRCC, PLCC and RMSE. A statistically sampling method to obtain practical LMS cone fundamentals to evaluate metamerism degree is employed. The analysis results obtained show that the method based on LMS weighting algorithm has good evaluation ability and stability in simulation experiments and statistically sampling experiments, which are in line with visual characteristics of human. Proposed method meets the requirements of selecting metameric pairs used in light source detection. The analysis results have certain guiding significance. 相似文献
In this paper, analytical estimation of energy dissipations, such as viscous, Joulian, and Darcy dissipation of viscoelastic flow phenomena over a deformable surface has been presented. This supplement to the study of many transport processes, which occur in nature, and various experimental setups that are driven or modified by the composition of the various flow characteristics and material or phase constitution. These processes are very important and have received considerable attention in the literature. The estimation of dissipative energy in the process of transport energy is an important phenomenon to investigate. The present analysis is carried out on steady MHD viscoelastic liquid due to deformable domains. Moreover, the impact of internal heat sources and prescribed thermal conditions, such as surface temperature and heat flux, are carefully studied. Analytical solutions to governing equations are obtained with the help of Kummer's function. The solutions are presented graphically as well as in tables to estimate the energy losses and their effects on transport processes, which serve as the salient features of the current analysis. The outcomes serve as a guideline due to the process of transport properties as per the design requirements. Looking into the current scenario, dissipative heat energies have several applications in industries and technological processes, such as electric heaters, fuses, food processing, and several others. 相似文献
This paper proposes a new deep learning architecture for context-based multi-label multi-task emotion recognition. The architecture is built from three main modules: (1) a body features extraction module, which is a pre-trained Xception network, (2) a scene features extraction module, based on a modified VGG16 network, and (3) a fusion-decision module. Moreover, three categorical and three continuous loss functions are compared in order to point out the importance of the synergy between loss functions when it comes to multi-task learning. Then, we propose a new loss function, the multi-label focal loss (MFL), based on the focal loss to deal with imbalanced data. Experimental results on EMOTIC dataset show that MFL with the Huber loss gave better results than any other combination and outperformed the current state of art on the less frequent labels. 相似文献
This study proposes a novel unsupervised network for IR/VIS fusion task, termed as RXDNFuse, which is based on the aggregated residual dense network. In contrast to conventional fusion networks, RXDNFuse is designed as an end-to-end model that combines the structural advantages of ResNeXt and DenseNet. Hence, it overcomes the limitations of the manual and complicated design of activity-level measurement and fusion rules. Our method establishes the image fusion problem into the structure and intensity proportional maintenance problem of the IR/VIS images. Using comprehensive feature extraction and combination, RXDNFuse automatically estimates the information preservation degrees of corresponding source images, and extracts hierarchical features to achieve effective fusion. Moreover, we design two loss function strategies to optimize the similarity constraint and the network parameter training, thus further improving the quality of detailed information. We also generalize RXDNFuse to fuse images with different resolutions and RGB scale images. Extensive qualitative and quantitative evaluations reveal that our results can effectively preserve the abundant textural details and the highlighted thermal radiation information. In particular, our results form a comprehensive representation of scene information, which is more in line with the human visual perception system. 相似文献
Heterogeneous information networks, which consist of multi-typed vertices representing objects and multi-typed edges representing relations between objects, are ubiquitous in the real world. In this paper, we study the problem of entity matching for heterogeneous information networks based on distributed network embedding and multi-layer perceptron with a highway network, and we propose a new method named DEM short for Deep Entity Matching. In contrast to the traditional entity matching methods, DEM utilizes the multi-layer perceptron with a highway network to explore the hidden relations to improve the performance of matching. Importantly, we incorporate DEM with the network embedding methodology, enabling highly efficient computing in a vectorized manner. DEM’s generic modeling of both the network structure and the entity attributes enables it to model various heterogeneous information networks flexibly. To illustrate its functionality, we apply the DEM algorithm to two real-world entity matching applications: user linkage under the social network analysis scenario that predicts the same or matched users in different social platforms and record linkage that predicts the same or matched records in different citation networks. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate DEM’s effectiveness and rationality.
