By using the more electro-negative Mn3+ ion to partially replace Co3+ at the octahedral site of spinel ZnCo2O4, i.e., forming ternary Zn–Mn–Co spinel oxide, the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction/evolution activity is found to be significantly increased. Considering the physical characterization and theoretical calculations, it demonstrated that the bond competition played a key role in regulating the cobalt valence state and the electrocatalytic activity. The partial replacement of octahedral-site-occupied Co3+ by Mn3+ can effectively modulate the adjacent Co–O bond and induce the Jahn–Teller effect, thus changing the originally stable crystal structure and optimizing the binding strength between the active center and reaction intermediates. Certainly, the Mn-substituted ZnMn1.4Co0.6O4/NCNTs exhibit higher electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity than that of ZnCo2O4/NCNTs and ZnMn2O4/NCNTs, supporting that the Co–O bond covalency determines the ORR activity of spinel ZnCo2O4. This study offers the competition between adjacent Co–O and Mn–O bonds via the BOh–O–BOh edge-sharing geometry. The ion substitution at octahedral sites by less electronegative cations can be a new and effective way to improve the electrocatalytic performance of cobalt-based spinel oxides. 相似文献
As the education of students attracts more and more attention, the task of graduation development prediction has gradually become a hot topic in academia and industry. The task of graduation development prediction aims to predict the employment category of students in advance via academic achievement data, which can help administrators understand students’ learning status and set up a reasonable learning plan. However, existing research ignores the potential impact of social relationships on students’ graduation development choices. To fully explore social relationships among students, we propose a Social-path Embedding-based Transformer Neural Network (SPE-TNN) for the task of graduation development prediction in this paper. Specifically, SPE-TNN is divided into the Social-path selection layer, the Social-path embedding layer, the Transformer layer, and the Multi-layer projection layer. Firstly, the Social-path selection layer is designed to find social relationships that impact graduation development and embed them into the student’s performance features through the Social-path embedding layer. Secondly, the Transformer layer is adopted to balance the weights of the students’ features. Finally, the Multi-layer projection layer is used to achieve the student graduation development prediction. Experimental results on the real-world datasets show that SPE-TNN outperforms the existing popular approaches.
A facile chemical bath method is adopted to grow bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) nanosheet arrays on a piece of Cu foil (denoted as BiOCl‐Cu) and isolated BiOCl nanosheets are collected by ultrasonication. A self‐supporting BiOCl film is obtained by the removal of Cu foil. Photodetectors (PDs) based on these BiOCl materials are assembled and the effects of morphologies and electrode configurations on the photoelectric performance of these PDs are examined. The BiOCl nanosheet PD achieves high responsivities in the spectral range from 250 to 350 nm, while it presents quite a small photocurrent and slow response speed. The BiOCl film PD yields low photocurrents and near‐unity on–off ratios, demonstrating poor photoelectric performance. The photocurrent of the BiOCl‐Cu PD with both electrodes on the BiOCl film is much higher than those of these above‐mentioned PDs, and the response times are fast. Meanwhile, the BiOCl‐Cu PD with separate electrodes on the BiOCl film and Cu foil achieves even higher photocurrents and presents a self‐powering characteristic, depicting the improved photodetecting performances induced by the specific morphology and distinct electrode configuration. These results would promote the applications of BiOCl nanostructures in the photoelectric devices. 相似文献
Pervasive technology has been widely used in assistive environments and aware homes. The issue of how to preserve the privacy
of patients being monitored has been attracting more public concerns. In assistive environments, location data of patients
are collected through sensors for behavior patterns analysis, and they can also be shared among researchers for further research
for early disease diagnosis. However, location information, even though de-identified, also introduces the risk of privacy
leakage. A series of consecutive location samples can be considered as a trajectory of a single person, and this may leak
private information if obtained by malicious users. This paper discusses this problem and proposes a location randomization
algorithm to protect users’ location privacy. Two privacy metrics according to location privacy are defined and used to evaluate
the proposed approach. A method using dynamic mix zones is proposed to confound trajectories of two or more persons. 相似文献
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology has become an attractive approach for enabling large-scale video streaming applications, but
the factor of users’ subjective preferences is not paid enough attention in such networks. As users have various demand on
video qualities, we can provide them with video streams at different resolutions without impairing their satisfaction. The
adaptive streaming rate technique is a promising method. However, in providing adaptive streaming rate services, P2P live
streaming design faces the following challenge: how to provide all users with uninterrupted video with their desired qualities
in case that their demand dynamically changes? To shed more light on this problem, we first derive a model and formulate the
problem as a resource demand vs supply problem. Then we present a framework to address the challenge via efficient bandwidth
allocation and group cooperation. Through comprehensive simulations, we evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed framework,
and conclude that it effectively helps existing solutions, such as Partial Participation Scheme (PPS), achieve better performance. 相似文献
This paper proposes a fast algorithm for Walsh Hadamard Transform on sliding windows which can be used to implement pattern matching most efficiently. The computational requirement of the proposed algorithm is about 1.5 additions per projection vector per sample, which is the lowest among existing fast algorithms for Walsh Hadamard Transform on sliding windows. 相似文献
Solubility isotherms of the ternary system (NH4Cl+CaCl2+H2O) were elaborately determined at T= (273.15 and 298.15) K by using the isothermal method. In the equilibrium phase diagram, there are two solubility branches corresponding to the solid phases CaCl2⋅6H2O and NH4Cl. Invariant point compositions are 36.32 wt% CaCl2 and 3.4 wt% NH4Cl at 273.15 K, and 45.86 wt% CaCl2 and 5.22 wt% NH4Cl at 298.15 K. A Pitzer-Simonson-Clegg thermodynamic model was applied to represent the thermodynamic properties of this ternary system and to construct a partial phase diagram of the ternary system at temperatures between (273.15 and 323.15) K. It was found in the predicted solubility phase diagram that the double salt 2NH4Cl⋅CaCl2⋅3H2O, found by other authors at (323.1 and 348.1) K, will disappear at temperatures below 298.15 K. Besides, it was found that there are two peritectic points in the ternary system with peritectic temperatures at 299.65 K and 298.15 K, and the former peritectic point falls just on the line between the composition points of NH4Cl and CaCl2⋅6H2O. According to phase rule, a solution made of this point will begin to crystallize at 299.65 K and end at 298 K and therefore can be acted as a “pseudo eutectic” phase change material (PCM). A heat storing and releasing experiment of 50 grams of the PCM was carried out, obtaining a satisfying result. 相似文献
The decision tree-based classification is a popular approach for pattern recognition and data mining. Most decision tree induction methods assume training data being present at one central location. Given the growth in distributed databases at geographically dispersed locations, the methods for decision tree induction in distributed settings are gaining importance. This paper describes one such method that generates compact trees using multifeature splits in place of single feature split decision trees generated by most existing methods for distributed data. Our method is based on Fisher's linear discriminant function, and is capable of dealing with multiple classes in the data. For homogeneously distributed data, the decision trees produced by our method are identical to decision trees generated using Fisher's linear discriminant function with centrally stored data. For heterogeneously distributed data, a certain approximation is involved with a small change in performance with respect to the tree generated with centrally stored data. Experimental results for several well-known datasets are presented and compared with decision trees generated using Fisher's linear discriminant function with centrally stored data. 相似文献
