基于Shannon熵的飞机交流发电机振动分析

飞机交流发电机是飞机关键部件之一,监测其健康状况具有重要意义。通过设计实验数据获取平台采集交流发电机在转速上升(从6000转/分到8500转/分)、平稳运行(7500转/分)及转速下降(8500转/分到6000转/分)三个阶段的振动信号,利用符号序列Shannon熵的计算方法以及符号化方法设定合适参数对振动信号进行了处理,得出了交流发电机在三个阶段的振动信号的Shannon熵;通过初步的分析表明,交流发电机在正常状态下三个阶段的Shannon熵都比较有规律的在一定范围内变化,一旦发生振动异常将会引起Shannon熵突变;经过分析讨论,Shannon熵的突变与否是可以用来反映交流发电机在机械方面是否存在故障隐患的。     

Entropy/cross entropy-based group decision making under intuitionistic fuzzy environment

We study the group decision making problem under intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Based on entropy and cross entropy, we give two methods to determine the optimal weights of attributes, and develop two pairs of entropy and cross entropy measures for intuitionistic fuzzy values. Then, we discuss the properties of these measures and the relations between them and the existing ones. Furthermore, we introduce three new aggregation operators, which treat the membership and non-membership information fairly, to aggregate intuitionistic fuzzy information. Finally, several practical examples are presented to illustrate the developed methods.     

An information-theoretic approach to the written transmission of old English

Information theory offers a means for analyzing some constraints on the reading and copying process in Old English. Entropy for strings of various lengths offers a baseline measure of the uncertainty involved in transmission of Old English texts, while avoiding the pitfalls of applying models of modern reading to early medieval practice. Analysis of lengthy prose and verse texts in Old English revealed uniformly high values for entropy at all string lengths. High entropies may be the result of the language's irregular orthography, poetic koiné, and several dialects and imply that the language may have been easy to write but difficult to read. The low redundancy of the language which its high entropy values indicate suggests that the reader of Old English played an enhanced role in decoding a text and may provide an explanation for the high variability in the transmission of Old English verse.Katherine O'Brien O 'Keeffe is Professor of English at Texas A&M University and a co-director of its Interdisciplinary Group for Historical Literary Study.William Rundell is Professor of Mathematics at Texas A&M University.     

Microwave surface resistance of epitaxial YBa2Cu3O7 thin films at 18.7 GHz measured by a dielectric resonator technique

We used a dielectric resonator technique for highly sensitive measurements of the temperature dependence of the microwave surface resistanceR _s of 1×1 cm² superconducting films at 18.7 GHz. It consists of a sapphire disc positioned on the film under investigation within a copper cavity which is acting as a radiation shield. In the TE₀₁ oscillation mode the highly reproducible quality factor of about 10⁵ results in a sensitivity of ±50 forR _s measurements. The temperature dependence ofR _s can be measured up to values as high as 1 . We have investigated several YBa₂Cu₃O₇ thin films prepared by high oxygen pressure d.c. sputtering on LaAlO₃ and NdGaO₃. Our best films exhibit a pronounced nonlinear behavior of the d.c. resistivity(T) with(300K)/(100K) values of about 3.7. Those films show, besides the initial fall-off just belowT _c , a further strong decrease ofR _s at low temperatures. This was observed both at 18.7 GHz and 87 GHz, as measured by a conventional cavity end plate replacement technique. ForTT_c/2 these films exhibit an exp (–T _c/T) dependence ofR _s with-values around 0.4. These observations may be explained by a superconducting energy gap with 2/kT _c0.8 for charge carriers localized in the CuO chains for YBa₂Cu₃O₇.     

用仪器中子活化分析法检验环境土壤标样的均匀度

近年来,国际上标准参考物质的种类与数量急剧增加,一些重要的领域,象地球化学、环境科学、生物学等都有了相应的SRM。国内研制SRM的工作也十分活跃。 标准样品必须均匀,故在分析定值和样品发行前,需要先作均匀性检验。由于均匀性是一个相对的概念,它与各个元素在SRM中的分布紧密相关。取样量直接影响均匀性的好坏。因此,当给出SRM中某元素的均匀性数值时,必须注明相应的取样量。由于仪器中子活化分析法(INAA)具有灵敏度高、不破坏试样、且可同时测定多种元素等特点,因此可在较小的取样量情况下,实现对SRM中多种痕量元素的均匀性检验。     

Personalized identification of abdominal wall hernia meshes on computed tomography

An abdominal wall hernia is a protrusion of the intestine through an opening or area of weakness in the abdominal wall. Correct pre-operative identification of abdominal wall hernia meshes could help surgeons adjust the surgical plan to meet the expected difficulty and morbidity of operating through or removing the previous mesh. First, we present herein for the first time the application of image analysis for automated identification of hernia meshes. Second, we discuss the novel development of a new entropy-based image texture feature using geostatistics and indicator kriging. Third, we seek to enhance the hernia mesh identification by combining the new texture feature with the gray-level co-occurrence matrix feature of the image. The two features can characterize complementary information of anatomic details of the abdominal hernia wall and its mesh on computed tomography. Experimental results have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed study. The new computational tool has potential for personalized mesh identification which can assist surgeons in the diagnosis and repair of complex abdominal wall hernias.

便携心电传感器的心房肥大诊断研究

基于便携式传感器的模式识别在心电(ECG)监护领域具有广泛的应用前景,并且在心律不齐、心肌梗塞、心室肥大等心电的识别算法上都已有大量的研究与应用,但在心房肥大诊断上却未有模式识别相关的研究成果。心房肥大病症的心电数据量不足给研究造成重大障碍,部分分类器无法适应小样本训练下的分类。针对小样本训练进行研究,对比了不同分类方法,显示了基于统计模式识别的支持向量机(SVM)应用于心房肥大的应用潜力。另外,由于不同个体的心房肥大心电存在差异,在实际应用环境中,SVM存在无法良好泛化的问题,存在类别错分的医学风险。针对类别错分情况,采用分类器融合的方法改进分类器,提出了在SVM分类器输出端增加了拒绝域的分类器(SVM-R)的方法。实验结果表明:SVMR有较高的分类准确率与诊断可信度。
