Quiescent Prominence

This paper describes some recent results of our quiescent prominence spectrometry program at the Mees Solar Observatory on Haleakala. The observations were made with the 25 cm coronagraph/coudé spectrograph system using a silicon vidicon detector. This detector consists of 500 contiguous channels covering approximately 6 or 80 Å, depending on the grating used. The instrument is interfaced to the Observatory’s PDP 11/45 computer system, and has the important advantages of wide spectral response, linearity and signal-averaging with real-time display. Its principal drawback is the relatively small target size. For the present work, the aperture was about 3″ × 5″. Absolute intensity calibrations were made by measuring quiet regions near sun center.

The important strategic position of military UAVs and the wide application of civil UAVs in many fields, they all mark the arrival of the era of unmanned aerial vehicles. At present, in the field of image research, recognition and real-time tracking of specific objects in images has been a technology that many scholars continue to study in depth and need to be further tackled. Image recognition and real-time tracking technology has been widely used in UAV aerial photography. Through the analysis of convolution neural network algorithm and the comparison of image recognition technology, the convolution neural network algorithm is improved to improve the image recognition effect. In this paper, a target detection technique based on improved Faster R-CNN is proposed. The algorithm model is implemented and the classification accuracy is improved through Faster R-CNN network optimization. Aiming at the problem of small target error detection and scale difference in aerial data sets, this paper designs the network structure of RPN and the optimization scheme of related algorithms. The structure of Faster R-CNN is adjusted by improving the embedding of CNN and OHEM algorithm, the accuracy of small target and multitarget detection is improved as a whole. The experimental results show that: compared with LENET-5, the recognition accuracy of the proposed algorithm is significantly improved. And with the increase of the number of samples, the accuracy of this algorithm is 98.9%.

AbstractTo capture the fine structure of the flare kernel during it's explosive phase, we design a real time flare onset detecting algorithm named Near Saturation Area Threshold(NSAT), And an automatic CCD parameters control algorithm for the observing software. All the data from CCD, 48f/s, could be saved to the hard disk, and the GPS time of the flare onset also be saved in the log. These methods could avoid the data overflow and grab the fine structure data of the flare kernel. The simulation experiment works well and the software will be put into use in Huairou Solar Observatory soon.

Real-time dynamic displacement and spectral response on the midspan of Jiangyin Bridge were calculated using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and a speedometer for the purpose of understanding the dynamic behavior and the temporal evolution of the bridge structure. Considering that the GNSS measurement noise is large and the velocity/acceleration sensors cannot measure the low-frequency displacement, the Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) algorithm was used to extract the low-frequency displacement of GNSS. Then, the low-frequency displacement extracted from the GNSS time series and the high-frequency vibration calculated by speedometer were combined in this paper in order to obtain the high precision three-dimensional dynamic displacement of the bridge in real time. Simulation experiment and measured data show that the VMD algorithm could effectively resist the modal aliasing caused by noise and discontinuous signals compared with the commonly used Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) algorithm, which is guaranteed to get high-precision fusion data. Finally, the fused displacement results can identify high-frequency vibrations and low-frequency displacements of a mm level, which can be used to calculate the spectral characteristics of the bridge and provide reference to evaluate the dynamic and static loads, and the health status of the bridge in the full frequency domain and the full time domain.

A virtual TV set combines actors and objects with computer-generated virtual environments in real time. Nowadays, this technology is widely used in television broadcasts and cinema productions. A virtual TV set consists of three main elements: the stage, the computer-system and the chroma-keyer. The stage is composed by a monochrome cyclorama (the background) in front of which actors and objects are located (the foreground). The computer-system generates the virtual elements that will form the virtual environment. The chroma-keyer combines the elements in the foreground with the computer-generated environments by erasing the monochrome background and insetting the synthetic elements using the chroma-keying technique. In order to ease the background removal, the cyclorama illumination must be diffuse and homogeneous, avoiding the hue differences that are introduced by shadows, shines and over-lighted areas. The analysis of this illumination is usually performed manually by an expert using a photometer which makes the process slow, tedious and dependent on the experience of the operator. In this paper, a new calibration process to check and improve the homogeneity of a cyclorama’s illumination by non-experts using a custom software which provides both visual information and statistical data, is presented. This calibration process segments a cyclorama image in regions with similar luminance and calculates the centroid of each of them. The statistical study of the variation in the size of the regions and the position of the centroids are the key tools used to determine the homogeneity of the cyclorama lighting.
