Evaluation of contrast metrics for liquid‐crystal displays under different viewing conditions

Abstract— A psychophysical experiment was carried out to assess the perceptual contrast on a large‐sized liquid‐crystal display (LCD) under nine phases of viewing conditions. Based on the results, six contrast models employing different color attributes or the index of just‐noticeable difference (JND) were developed. Their performances were also tested by the visual data of the nine phases, which indicated that the model C_Q employing CIECAM02 brightness gives the best performance in predicting visual data under different viewing conditions among those models. A preprocessing step was also proposed to utilize the contrast model C_Q conveniently in the practical contrast evaluation of LCDs.     

Human error identification in human reliability assessment. Part 2: Detailed comparison of techniques

This is the second part of a two-part review of human error identification (HEI) approaches in human reliability assessment (HRA). Part 1 reviewed the probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) context in which HRA occurs, and then detailed 12 HEI techniques which have evolved in the field of HRA. Part 2 attempts to compare the way these techniques perform against a range of criteria relevant to HEI theoretical and empirical validity, and practical usefulness in applied HRA. It is hoped that these comparisons will help assessors in the selection of techniques for practical applications. The comparisons also point to research and development needs in the area of applied HEI.     

On the fit of models to covariances and methodology to the Bulletin..

Notes that 7 of the 10 top-cited articles in the Psychological Bulletin deal with methodological topics. One of these is the P. M. Bentler and D. G. Bonett (1980) article on the assessment of fit in covariance structure models. Some context is provided on the popularity of this article. In addition, a citation study of methodology articles appearing in the Bulletin since 1978 was carried out. It verified that publications in design, evaluation, measurement, and statistics continue to be important to psychological research. Some thoughts are offered on the role of the journal in making developments in these areas more accessible to psychologists. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)     

雷达模拟器目标威胁度评估方法研究

研究雷达模拟器目标威胁度的准确评估问题,是辅助操作手对空中目标进行打击的重要依据.威胁度普通雷达是难以探测的.由于目标的速度、距离等随机性强,具体数据难以确定.针对威胁度评估问题,多限于权重分析、聚类分析等方法,对难以确定的参数有较大依赖.为解决上述问题,提出应用效能指数的方法来确定未知目标对雷达阵地的威胁度,根据雷达能够获取的数据,得出判断矩阵,实现对雷达所测数据的分析,并评估目标的威胁度.上述方法可用于雷达模拟器,能够灵活地根据情况调整威胁度评估方法.实验结果表明,方法能够较好地在某些属性未知的情况下,可对目标威胁度进行准确评估,证明改进方法为威胁度评估提供了有效依据.     

提高定点精度的FPGA信号处理算法

为了满足速度、功耗等诸多限制的要求,数字信号处理算法常使用FPGA实现。而实现时由于硬件特点,通常将浮点运算转换成定点运算,但定点转换设计流程复杂、周期长,且存在数据范围和精度之间的矛盾。利用浮点数的优点,本文改进了基于FPGA的定点数的基本运算规则,有效解决了上述矛盾。本文详细论述了实现移位、加/减、乘、除基本运算模块的方法和步骤,最后以FIR数字滤波器为设计实例。仿真结果表明:改进的定点数算法比定点运算误差小、精度高、数据范围宽,能有效地防止溢出。

为了自动、准确、高效地评估采集图像的质量,设计了一个名为MTIQA的卷积神经网络。该网络能够输出与主观评价指标保持较高一致性的客观评估结果。MTIQA采用多任务学习策略,包含网络训练质量评估和失真类型分类两个任务,将两个任务的损失融合并构成新的损失函数。为了评估算法所得到的客观指标的可靠性,建立了名为SIR2019的单眼虹膜质量评估数据集,并召集志愿者进行主观实验以得到主观评价指标。在SIR2019和CASIA-Iris-Distance-Lamp数据集上的实验结果表明,该网络在虹膜图像质量评估上具有较好的可行性、准确性和鲁棒性。

ANN valuation model of material LCIA profile

Weighting model is the only valuation model of life cycle impact assessment(LCIA) profile now. It simplifies evaluation function into linear function, and makes the determination of weighting factor complicated. Therefore the valuation of LCIA profile is the most critical and controversial step in life cycle assessment(LCA). Development on valuation models, which are understood easily and accepted widely, is urgently needed in the field of LCA.The modeling approaches for the linear evaluation function were summed up. The modeling approaches for the nonlinear evaluation function were set up by function approximation theory, which include choosing preference products, forming preference data, establishing artificial neural network(ANN) and training ANN by preference data.By selecting 7 material products as preference product, experience was done with modeling approaches of the nonlinear evaluation function. The results show that the modeling approaches and valuation model of the nonlinear evaluation function are more practical than the weighting model.
