Research on Interactive Visual Communication Design System Based on Dynamic Image

The SVR image marine-continental segmentation algorithm on account of ameliorated CV model can segment the marine-continental image efficiently, and compare the image results with the original model, so as to continuously iterate the effectiveness of image segmentation. On account of this, this paper first analyses the concept and main methods of SAR image marine-continental segmentation algorithm, then studies the SAR image marine-continental segmentation algorithm on account of ameliorated CV model, and finally gives the process and effect analysis of SAR image marine-continental segmentation on account of ameliorated CV model.

Effect of connected and autonomous vehicles on traffic flow at a bidirectional road

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) on traffic flow under various parameters. For this purpose, we propose a mixed CAV and conventional vehicle (CV) model to investigate a bidirectional two-lane traffic flow under the periodic boundary condition. The traffic flux and the phase diagrams of the system in the ([Formula: see text]) area are constructed in both cases: with and without CAVs. The overtaking frequency is also calculated. The simulation findings show that the traffic capacity is greatly enhanced with the increase in the CAV penetration ratio. Owing to the cooperative driving strategy, with the increase in penetration ratio of the CAV, the portion of smooth overtaking is boosted. Furthermore, it is found that the traffic throughput is positively correlated to the speed limit of the fast vehicle where the flux increases as [Formula: see text] increases. Also, even if there is a low rate of slow moving vehicles in the system, it will have an appreciable and a significant negative influence.

EFFECTIVE CLEARANCE AND DIFFERENTIAL GAPPING IMPACT ON SEAL FLUTTER MODELLING AND VALIDATION

This paper presents an update of the model derived by Corral and Vega (2018, “Conceptual Flutter Analysis of Labyrinth Seal Using Analytical Models. Part I - Theoretical Support”, ASME J. of Turbomach., 140 (12), pp. 121006) for labyrinth seal flutter stability, providing a method of accounting for the effect of dissimilar gaps. The original CV model was intended as a conceptual model for understanding the effect of different parameters on the seal stability comprehensively, providing qualitative trends for seal flutter stability. However, the quantitative evaluation of seal flutter, and the comparison of the CV model with detailed unsteady numerical simulations or experimental data, require including additional physics. The kinetic energy generated in the inlet gap is not dissipated entirely in the inter-fin cavity of straight-through labyrinth seals, and part is recovered in the downstream knife. This mechanism needs to be retained in the model. It is concluded that when the theoretical gaps are identical, the impact of the recovery factor on the seal stability can be high. The sensitivity of the seal stability to large changes in the outlet to inlet gap ratio is high as well. It is concluded that fin variations due to rubbing or wearing inducing inlet gaps more open than the exit gaps lead to an additional loss of stability concerning the case of identical gaps. The agreement between the updated model and 3D linearized Navier-Stokes simulations is excellent when the model is informed with data coming from steady RANS simulations of the seal.

Synthesis of Line of Sight Angle Coordinate Filter on the Basis of Interactive Multi-Model Evaluation Algorithm

On the basis of the tracking multi-loop target angle coordinate system, the article has selected and proposed a interactive multi-model adaptive filter algorithm to improve the quality of the target phase coordinate filter. In which, the 3 models selected to design the line of sight angle coordinate filter; Constant velocity (CV) model, Singer model and constant acceleration model, characterizing 3 different levels of maneuverability of the target. As a result, the evaluation quality of the target phase coordinates is improved because the evaluation process has redistribution of the probabilities of each model to suit the actual maneuvering of the target. The structure of the filters is simple, the evaluation error is small and the maneuvering detection delay is significantly reduced. The results are verified through simulation, ensuring that in all cases the target is maneuvering with different intensity and frequency, the line of sight angle coordinate filter always accurately determines the target angle coordinates.

Study of non-Newtonian polymer blends using large amplitude oscillatory shearing flow

Large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) was performed on non-Newtonian minor phase in Newtonian matrix phase polymer blends as a first step toward understating more complex immiscible polymer blends under high deformation condition. The blend consists polybutadiene (PBD) as the droplet phase and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as the matrix phase. The PBD droplet phase was an elastic “Boger” fluid prepared by dissolving a high-molecular-weight PBD into a low-molecular-weight Newtonian PBD. Different percentages of the high-molecular-weight PBD were used to prepare different types of Boger fluids that resulted in blends with different viscosity ratios from lower than unity, to unity and higher than unity. Furthermore, the LAOS results of the blends were analyzed by using the Fourier Transform (FT) technique. From a theoretical point of view, the constrained volume model (CV-model) for Newtonian components is adapted to the case of a Newtonian matrix phase and non-Newtonian Boger fluid droplet phase by taking into account stresses that arise in the Boger fluids. The adapted model and the Newtonian CV-model were compared to the experimental results of FT-LAOS for checking the predictability of the model against the rheological properties. The adapted model shows some reasonable qualitative and quantitative agreements at high strain amplitude values.

Analysis of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Ischemic Cerebrovascular Diseases under the Magnetic Resonance Angiography Image Segmentation Algorithm

In order to discuss the segmentation effect of the magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) image segmentation algorithm based on the fuzzy clustering algorithm and DR-CV model and the prognostic value of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in the ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD), a total of 178 patients who were admitted to the hospital and received MRA due to ICVD were selected as the research objects of this study. Blood vessel segmentation was performed on the MRA image by fuzzy clustering algorithm and DR-CV model, and all patients were divided into a control group (group A), a single-vessel stenosis group (group B), a two-vessel stenosis group (group C), and a multiple-vessel stenosis group (group D). The GFR was estimated by using the dietary modification equation for kidney disease, and the correlation between GFR and the severity of arterial stenosis in patients with ICVD was analyzed. It was found that the results of the Dice similarity index (DSI) of the MRA image blood vessel segmentation algorithm based on the fuzzy clustering algorithm and the integrated model of boundary and regional information (DR-CV model) were all above 85%. The age and GFR values of the four groups of patients were significantly different ( P < 0.05). The proportions of patients in groups C and D in the group with low DFR were significantly different from those in groups A and B ( P < 0.01); the proportions of patients in groups A and B in the high-level GFR group had extremely significant differences compared with group D ( P < 0.01). Age, GFR, total cholesterol (TC), and high-density lipoprotein-C (HDL-C) were correlated with the degree of arterial stenosis ( P < 0.05). It showed that the segmentation effect of MRA image blood vessel segmentation algorithm based on the fuzzy clustering algorithm and DR-CV model was better, and the GFR level can be used as an independent risk factor for the ICVD.

A High Resolution Spatiotemporal Fine Particulate Matter Exposure Assessment Model for the Contiguous United States

Currently available nationwide prediction models for fine particulate matter (PM2.5) lack prediction confidence intervals and usually do not describe cross validated (CV) model performance at different spatiotemporal resolutions and extents. We used 41 different spatiotemporal predictors, including data on land use, meteorology, aerosol optical density, emissions, wildfires, population, traffic, and spatiotemporal indicators to train a machine learning model to predict daily averages of PM2.5 concentrations at 0.75 sq km resolution across the contiguous United States from 2000 through 2020. We utilized a generalized random forest model that allowed us to generate asymptotically-valid prediction confidence intervals and took advantage of its usefulness as an ensemble learner to quickly and cheaply characterize leave-one-location-out (LOLO) CV model performance for different temporal resolutions and geographic regions. Using a variable importance metric, we selected 8 predictors that were able to accurately predict daily PM2.5, with an overall LOLO CV median absolute error (MAE) of 1.20 &mu;gm3, an R2 of 0.84, and confidence interval coverage fraction of 95%. When considering aggregated temporal windows, the model achieved LOLO CV MAEs of 0.99, 0.76, 0.63, and 0.60 &mu;gm3 for weekly, monthly, annual, and all-time exposure assessments, respectively. We further describe the model&rsquo;s CV performance at different geographic regions in the United States, finding that it performs worse in the Western half of the country where there are less monitors. The code and data used to create this model are publicly available and we have developed software packages to be used for exposure assessment. This accurate exposure assessment model will be useful for epidemiologists seeking to study the health effects of PM2.5 across the continential United States, while possibly considering exposure estimation accuracy and uncertainty specific to the the spatiotemporal resolution and extent of their study design and population.

Machine Learning Classifier Models Can Identify Delirium in Intensive Care Units

Purpose: The aim of this study was to use machine learning to construct a model for the analysis of risk factors and prediction of delirium among ICU patients.Methods: We developed a set of real-world data to enable the comparison of the reliability and accuracy of delirium prediction models from the MIMIC-III database, the MIMIC-IV database and the eICU Collaborative Research Database. Significance tests, correlation analysis, and factor analysis were used to individually screen 80 potential risk factors. The predictive algorithms were run using the following models: Logistic regression, naive Bayesian, K-nearest neighbors, support vector machine, random forest, and eXtreme Gradient Boosting. Conventional E-PRE-DELIRIC and eighteen models, including all-factor (AF) models with all potential variables, characteristic variable (CV) models with principal component factors, and rapid predictive (RP) models without laboratory test results, were used to construct the risk prediction model for delirium. The performance of these machine learning models was measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of tenfold cross-validation. The VIMs and SHAP algorithms, feature interpretation and sample prediction interpretation algorithms of the machine learning black box model were implemented.Results: A total of 78,365 patients were enrolled in this study, 22,159 of whom (28.28%) had positive delirium records. The E-PRE-DELIRIC model (AUC, 0.77), CV models (AUC, 0.77-0.93), CV models (AUC, 0.77-0.88) and RP models (AUC, 0.75-0.87) had discriminatory value. The random forest CV model found that the top five factors accounting for the weight of delirium were length of ICU stay, verbal response score, APACHE-III score, urine volume and hemoglobin. The SHAP values in the eXtreme Gradient Boosting CV model showed that the top three features that were negatively correlated with outcomes were verbal response score, urine volume, and hemoglobin; the top three characteristics that were positively correlated with outcomes were length of ICU stay, APACHE-III score, and alanine transaminase.Conclusion: Even with a small number of variables, machine learning has a good ability to predict delirium in critically ill patients. Characteristic variables provide direction for early intervention to reduce the risk of delirium.
