Nonuniform linear array DOA estimation using EM criterion

In this letter, we address the problem of Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation with nonuniform linear array in the context of sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) framework. The nonuniform array output is deemed as an incomplete-data observation, and a hypothetical uniform linear array output is treated as an unavailable complete-data observation. Then the Expectation-Maximization (EM) criterion is directly utilized to iteratively maximize the expected value of the complete-data log likelihood under the posterior distribution of the latent variable. The novelties of the proposed method lie in its capability of interpolating the actual received data to a virtual uniform linear array, therefore extending the achievable array aperture. Simulation results manifests the superiority of the proposed method over off-the-shelf algorithms, specially on circumstances such as low SNR, insufficient snapshots, and spatially adjacent sources.     

Probing the degenerate pattern growth of {100}<011> orientation in a directionally solidified Al-4.5 wt% Cu alloy

Degenerate pattern is a seemingly disordered morphology but it exhibits the inherently ordered crystal connected with tip-splitting and limited stability which makes it difficult to observe in the metallic system. Here we employ (100)[011] orientated planar-front seeds using directional solidification and reveal the fundamental origins of the degenerate pattern growth in an Al-4.5 wt% Cu alloy. We find that the spacing of the tip-splitting (λ) in the degenerate of the alloys followed a power law, λ∝V^−0.5, and the frequency (f) of the splitting was related to the growth velocity (V) by ƒ∝V^1.5. The dimensionless growth direction (θ/θ₀) increased monotonously and approached 0.6 with faster velocity, attributed to its anisotropy in the interface kinetics. Once growth velocity exceeded a threshold, two types of pattern transitions from degenerate to regular dendrites were proposed. One of them exhibited a random and chaotic mode and the other underwent a rotation in growth direction.

野外大气扩散试验中四面体气球示踪实验的初步评价

1985年11月在瑞士北部进行了一次以探讨“冷池”条件下的扩散和湍流特征为目的的国际野外大气试验,本文介绍其中的四面体气球示踪实验的结果。一共进行了三次由雷达跟踪的四面体示踪实验,释放了10个四面体球。按多轨迹法和单轨迹法分别估算并比较了其中两次示踪实验得到的水平扩散参数σ_y,探讨了风摆效应的贡献。采用“体源模式”并结合单轨迹法估算了微弱风场不定风向条件下的扩散参数,分析了静风,弱风条件下的水平风向标准差和湍流强度。

正则稀疏化的多因子量化选股策略

针对高维度数据集特征之间的复杂性,而传统的L1惩罚项不满足Oracle性质的无偏性,将逻辑回归弹性网（LR-Elastic Net）中的L1惩罚项替换为SCAD（Smoothly Clipped Absolute Deviation）和MCP（Minimax Concave Penalty）惩罚项,分别构建了LR-SCAD和LR-MCP模型,在保留稀疏性的同时满足了无偏性,并利用ADMM（Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers）算法进行求解。通过模拟实验发现,LR-Elastic Net模型能很好地处理特征存在相关性的小样本数据,而LR-SCAD和LR-MCP模型在特征存在相关性的大样本数据中表现较好;建立LR-Elastic Net、LR-SCAD和LR-MCP策略,并应用于沪深300指数成分股数据。回测结果显示,LR-SCAD和LR-MCP策略在股票相关性很强的数据中比LR-Elastic Net策略表现更好。     

A simulation-based heuristic algorithm for disposition of direction finders

A direction finder is a military weapon that is used to find locations of targets that emit radio frequencies. Multiple direction finders are used in a direction finder system for finding locations of targets in an area of interest. We present a two-stage heuristic algorithm for disposing direction finders in a direction finder system for the objective of maximizing the accuracy of estimation of the location of a target that is assumed to be located in the area of interest. In the suggested heuristic algorithm, a simulation-based method is used for estimating the probability of coverage, the probability that a target is in a given region (of a given size) surrounding the estimated location of the target, and another simulation-based method and a local search method are used to determine locations of direction finders that result in the maximum probability of coverage. Performance of the suggested algorithm is evaluated through computational experiments and results show that the algorithm gives a good disposition plan in a reasonable amount of computation time.

研究汽车制动系统中,为了保证缩短制动距离的同时,改善汽车在附着系数分离的非对称路面上行驶制动的方向稳定性,结合单轮独立控制与低选控制方式,以横摆角速度为控制参数,提出一种兼顾制动距离和方向稳定性的ABS整车控制策略:ABS混合控制策略.建立汽车制动相关模型,对4种控制方式进行仿真分析.比较4种不同控制策略的仿真结果,表明以横摆角速度为控制参数的ABS混合控制策略能在制动距离与制动方向稳定性中找到合理的平衡点,既能充分利用每 个车轮的路面附着系数,又能防止汽车在非对称路面行驶时产生较大的制动跑偏量,提高汽车制动时的方向稳定性.综合考虑制动距离和制动方向稳定性两项指标,以横摆角速度为控制参数的ABS混合控制方式制动效果最优.
