In outdoor scenes, haze limits the visibility of images, and degrades people’s judgement of the objects. In this paper, based on an assumption of human visual perception in frequency domain, a novel image haze removal filtering is proposed. Combining this assumption with the theory of frequency domain filtering, we first estimate the cut-off frequency to divide the frequency domain of the hazy image into three components — low-frequency domain, intermediate-frequency domain and high-frequency domain. Then, by introducing the weighting factors, the three components are recombined together. After the theoretical deduction of frequency domain, the establishment of the actual model and adjusting the cut-off frequency and weighting factors, we finally acquire a global and adaptive filtering. This filtering can restore the details and the contours of the images, which have less noise, and improve the visibility of the objects in hazy images. Moreover, our method is simple in structure and strongly applicable, and rarely affected by parameters. Our algorithm is stable and performs well in heavy fog and the scene changes.

AbstractAn extended state observer (ESO)-based loop filter is designed for the phase-locked loop (PLL) involved in a disturbed grid-connected converter (GcC). This ESO-based design enhances the performances and robustness of the PLL, and, therefore, improves control performances of the disturbed GcCs. Besides, the ESO-based LF can be applied to PLLs with extra filters for abnormal grid conditions. The unbalanced grid is particularly taken into account for the performance analysis. A tuning approach based on the well-designed PI controller is discussed, which results in a fair comparison with conventional PI-type PLLs. The frequency domain properties are quantitatively analysed with respect to the control stability and the noises rejection. The frequency domain analysis and simulation results suggest that the performances of the generated ESO-based controllers are comparable to those of the PI control at low frequency, while have better ability to attenuate high-frequency measurement noises. The phase margin decreases slightly, but remains acceptable. Finally, experimental tests are conducted with a hybrid power hardware-in-the-loop benchmark, in which balanced/unbalanced cases are both explored. The obtained results prove the effectiveness of ESO-based PLLs when applied to the disturbed GcC.

Abstract Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) is based on the least squares algorithm to minimize the difference between the synthetic and observed data, which is a promising technique for high-resolution velocity inversion. However, the FWI method is characterized by strong model dependence, because the ultra-low-frequency components in the field seismic data are usually not available. In this work, to reduce the model dependence of the FWI method, we introduce a Weighted Local Correlation-phase based FWI method (WLCFWI), which emphasizes the correlation phase between the synthetic and observed data in the time-frequency domain. The local correlation-phase misfit function combines the advantages of phase and normalized correlation function, and has an enormous potential for reducing the model dependence and improving FWI results. Besides, in the correlation-phase misfit function, the amplitude information is treated as a weighting factor, which emphasizes the phase similarity between synthetic and observed data. Numerical examples and the analysis of the misfit function show that the WLCFWI method has a strong ability to reduce model dependence, even if the seismic data are devoid of low-frequency components and contain strong Gaussian noise.

A phenomenological laboratory investigation has been conducted of the IP response of pyrite, chalcopyrite, and chalcocite. The technique that was used is standard in electrochemistry and employs rotating disk electrodes. The effect of rotation is to stir the electrolyte and thus to restrict the maximum distance available for diffusion of electroactive aqueous species. For high rotation speed and low excitation frequencies, the mean diffusion length exceeds the thickness of the diffusion layer. The net effect is to reduce the electrode impedance at low frequency. The thickness of the diffusion layer and thus the impedance at low frequency can be controlled by the rotation speed. Measurements using rotating disk electrodes have been conducted in both the time domain and the frequency domain. For both pyrite and chalcopyrite, the results were the same: no dependence on rotation was observed. For frequency domain measurements with chalcocite, a strong dependence on rotation was observed. The interpreted diffusion layer thickness was found to depend on rotation speed to the [Formula: see text] power, in agreement with results predicted by hydrodynamic theory. The results of this study imply that there are two physical processes responsible for electrode polarization in the IP method. For chalcocite and perhaps other related copper sulfide minerals, the probable mechanism is diffusion of copper ions in the groundwater. In case, the phenomenon is correctly described by the Warburg impedance. Chalcocite’s distinctive response is thought to be related to its forming a reversible oxidation‐reduction couple with cupric ions in solution. No other common sulfide mineral forms a reversible couple with its cations in solution. For the other minerals of this study, the lack of dependence on rotation implies that diffusion of active species in the electrolyte is not the controlling process. Possible alternate mechanisms include surface controlled processes such as surface diffusion or adsorption phenomena. Ancillary data obtained during this study indicate the interface impedance of chalcopyrite is proportional to the electrode potential which in turn can be controlled by rotation speed, electrolyte composition, or application of an external dc current or voltage. This implies that the surface concentration of active species is dependent on electrode potential.

AbstractMatching the broad-band emission of active galaxies with the predictions of theoretical models can be used to derive constraints on the properties of the emitting region and to probe the physical processes involved. AP Librae is the third low frequency peaked BL Lac (LBL) detected at very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) by an Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope; most VHE BL Lacs (34 out of 39) belong to the high-frequency and intermediate-frequency BL Lac classes (HBL and IBL). LBL objects tend to have a higher luminosity with lower peak frequencies than HBLs or IBLs. The characterization of their time-averaged spectral energy distribution is challenging for emission models such as synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) models.
