基于位置范围的道路网skyline查询

随着无线通信和定位技术的发展,道路网skyline查询在基于位置的服务等方面越来越重要。考虑到现今道路网中位置隐私保护和定位设备的精度问题,用户在道路网上的位置通常用一个范围来表示。但是,已有的道路网skyline研究都是基于单一查询点。针对这一问题,研究了一种新的查询——基于位置范围的道路网skyline查询(RNS),提出了一种基于边界点替换的有效查询处理算法。另外,针对已有的道路网skyline查询中复杂的道路网距离计算对查询效率的影响问题,通过计算兴趣点在道路网上的有效skyline路段,将其与道路网信息融合,建立了道路网skyline模型。基于该模型设计了一种能有效支持RNS查询的道路网skyline索引SSR-tree,提出了基于索引的RNS查询处理算法。通过大量实验验证了所提方法的有效性,并比较了基于索引的算法在查询效率和精度上的提高。     

Range Unit‐Root (RUR) Tests: Robust against Nonlinearities,Error Distributions,Structural Breaks and Outliers

Abstract. Since the seminal paper by Dickey and Fuller in 1979, unit‐root tests have conditioned the standard approaches to analysing time series with strong serial dependence in mean behaviour, the focus being placed on the detection of eventual unit roots in an autoregressive model fitted to the series. In this paper, we propose a completely different method to test for the type of long‐wave patterns observed not only in unit‐root time series but also in series following more complex data‐generating mechanisms. To this end, our testing device analyses the unit‐root persistence exhibited by the data while imposing very few constraints on the generating mechanism. We call our device the range unit‐root (RUR) test since it is constructed from the running ranges of the series from which we derive its limit distribution. These nonparametric statistics endow the test with a number of desirable properties, the invariance to monotonic transformations of the series and the robustness to the presence of important parameter shifts. Moreover, the RUR test outperforms the power of standard unit‐root tests on near‐unit‐root stationary time series; it is invariant with respect to the innovations distribution and asymptotically immune to noise. An extension of the RUR test, called the forward–backward range unit‐root (FB‐RUR) improves the check in the presence of additive outliers. Finally, we illustrate the performances of both range tests and their discrepancies with the Dickey–Fuller unit‐root test on exchange rate series.     

Polytope-based computation of polynomial ranges

Polynomial ranges are commonly used for numerically solving polynomial systems with interval Newton solvers. Often ranges are computed using the convex hull property of the tensorial Bernstein basis, which is exponential size in the number n of variables. In this paper, we consider methods to compute tight bounds for polynomials in n variables by solving two linear programming problems over a polytope. We formulate a polytope defined as the convex hull of the coefficients with respect to the tensorial Bernstein basis, and we formulate several polytopes based on the Bernstein polynomials of the domain. These Bernstein polytopes can be defined by a polynomial number of halfspaces. We give the number of vertices, the number of hyperfaces, and the volume of each polytope for n=1,2,3,4, and we compare the computed range widths for random n-variate polynomials for n?10. The Bernstein polytope of polynomial size gives only marginally worse range bounds compared to the range bounds obtained with the tensorial Bernstein basis of exponential size.     

电阻测量方法的研究

详细分析了1kΩ～500GΩ电阻各量程的分辨率和测量电路输出信号范围，并以此为依据设计了实用的电路系统。同时给出具体的测量方法如下：首先判断电阻的范围，将放大器切换到合适的量程；放大后的电压信号经A／D转换送给单片机计算电阻值；根据各自量程的标准电阻值及其测量值之差进行动态校正。该方法消除了噪声对测量精度的影响。测试结果表明：在全量程范围内，最小测量误差为0.03％，最大测量误差为0.8％。     

Model assessment of MPCs with control ranges: An industrial application in a delayed coking unit

Poor model quality is one of the most frequent causes of performance deterioration in Model Predictive Controllers. As such, frequent model evaluation and correction is fundamental. Some assessment methods are reported in the literature, but most cannot deal with Model Predictive Controllers (MPCs) without fixed setpoints for controlled variables. Botelho et al. (2015, 2016a, 2016b) proposed a series of methods that include the controller tuning and the applied MPC implementation in the assessment procedure. Their main advantage is setpoint independence. This paper analyzes the application of these methods in an industrial MPC with control ranges. The system studied is an MPC of a fractionating column in a delayed coker unit of a refinery in Brazil. The results demonstrate that the method is capable of correctly quantifying the effect of modeling problems and identifying whether they are related to a model-plant mismatch or unmeasured disturbance.
