Binary Variable Versus Rank Variable

This chapter gives methods to compare a variable that shows binary Presence or Absence versus a variable that indicates the ranked priority for Presence. The method considers several thresholds to convert the rank variable to a binary variable, which reduces each threshold to the analysis of the binary versus binary case of Chap. 1 . The method presents the results graphically as the Total Operating Characteristic, which is more informative than the outdated Relative Operating Characteristic. Relevant software includes the TOC Curve Generator (Liu 2020) available via https://lazygis.github.io/projects/TOCCurveGenerator and R’s TOC package available at https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/TOC/index.html (Pontius Jr et al. 2015).
Analysis of global and net radiation fluxes in relation to surface albedo at DACCIWA site in Ile-Ife, southwest Nigeria

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Measurements of global solar and net radiation fluxes were made above a grass-covered surface at DACCIWA site in a tropical location, Ile-Ife, southwest Nigeria for a period of three years (2017 - 2019). The radiation data sets were obtained from a four-component net radiometer (model NR01). Observations were made for cases of clear sky and cloudy conditions during the measurement period. The results showed considerable fluctuations of both radiation fluxes occurring during the period of measurements at the location. For clear sky conditions, the magnitudes of global and net radiation fluxes were higher than those observed for cloudy conditions due to attenuation by clouds and aerosols. For the period of observation, the highest radiation flux values occurred in 2018 while the lowest were observed in 2017. The daily surface albedo (&amp;amp;#945;) values ranged from 0.16 to 0.22 at the site. Empirical relationships obtained for global solar and net radiation are&amp;amp;#160; &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; = 0.754 &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;G&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; &amp;amp;#8211; 17.4 Wm&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;-2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; and&amp;amp;#160; &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; = 0.657 &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;G&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; &amp;amp;#8211; 32.7 Wm&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;-2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; for wet and dry seasons respectively. Based on the empirical relationships, daily net and global solar radiation can be obtained when measurements like these are not available. Linear relationships between &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;&amp;amp;#160; and &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;G&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; indicate that for all days (cloudy and clear sky conditions), average &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;N&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;&amp;amp;#160; is about 65 % of &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;G&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; , and about 50 % of&amp;amp;#160; &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;R&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;G&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; for clear sky conditions at the location&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

Diffractive optical networks with scale, shift, and rotation invariance

This study reports a new diffractive optical network design strategy that incorporates object scaling, translation, and rotation as part of the forward training model using uniformly-distributed random variables to provide immunity and resilience against such variations at the input object plane. By guiding the evolution of the diffractive layers towards a scale-, shift- and rotation-invariant network solution, this training strategy provides >30-70% improvement in the all-optical blind inference accuracies achieved under various unknown object transformations. This training method constitutes a promising approach to bring the advantages of all-optical diffractive inference with low-latency, power-efficiency, and parallelization to various machine vision applications.
A new structure of synthetic aperture system

The optical synthetic aperture imaging system based on integrated optics obviously decreases the dimension and weight by integrating thousands of micro-lenses and optical waveguide arrays on a planar substrate, but the structure of aperture array is still one of the important factors affecting the imaging quality of system. Therefore, a new micro-lenses array of the optical synthetic aperture imaging system is proposed as micro-lenses array in the shape of windmill which in front of the integrated optical interference system. The theoretical basis of synthetic aperture imaging system is introduced. Build the mathematical model of “windmill” and SPIDER micro-lenses array. Use computer digital simulation experiment to calculate and compare about the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and modulation transfer function (MTF) of two kinds of synthetic aperture structure. The experimental results show that the new structure has the advantage of easy fabrication, and the imaging quality is better than the others.

Biorthogonal Wavelets for Multiresolution Image Compression

In this paper, biorthogonal wavelet transform is used for compression of high resolution aerial images. Biorthogonal wavelets enlarge the family of orthogonal wavelets and can be subjected to inversion. The Biorthogonal wavelet family uses distinct wavelet and scaling functions for the decomposition and reconstruction of images and signals. Biorthogonal wavelets also demonstrates the feature of linear phase by using two wavelets for decomposition and reconstruction. This basically means that images are decomposed by one family and reconstructed by another.A methodology is designed using bi-orthogonal wavelets, preserving 8&#x0025; of the wavelet coefficients after image compression. Even though there is a significant reduction in both the dimensions and size of the selected images, there is almost negligible damage to the visual properties of the images. The originality of the selected images remains unhindered throughout the course of action which conveys how efficient biorthogonal wavelets are in compression of high resolution images.
Secure Communication Scheme Based on Projective Synchronization of Hyperchaotic Systems

This chapter develops a secure communication scheme based on the synchronization of two hyperchaotic systems, including key statistical, dynamical, and security analyses. First, the scheme is based on the projective synchronization between two hyperchaotic systems applied to image encryption. The encryption process comprises the generation and discretization of chaotic sequences, the transformation of the sequence elements into the image domain, and the modulo operation as encryption transformation. Second, the reliability and robustness of the proposed scheme are evaluated through the primary dynamical, statistical, and security analyses such as spectral and dynamical complexity, sensitivity, unpredictability, chaotic range, elements distribution, and randomness characteristics, key space definition, and resistance to distortion analysis, return map analysis, differential attack, decryption, and brute force attacks. Finally, the experimental results give evidence of the feasibility and robustness of the chaotic scheme. They show that using high-dimensional chaotic systems such as hyperchaotic systems combined with projective synchronization improves the confusion and diffusion properties, increases the key space, and limits the effectiveness of decryption, distortion, differential, generalized and adaptive synchronization, return map and brute force attacks.
Efficient task scheduling in cloud environment

Summary Cloud computing is the provision of on‐demand computing resources over the internet and on a pay‐as‐you‐go basis, ranging from software to computation power. Task scheduling and its execution is a fundamental requirement of cloud environment. However, dynamic scheduling of tasks on basis of priority is a challenging area such that the tasks finish before their deadline. Earliest Deadline First (EDF) has been considered in literature for task scheduling to meet the deadlines. However, basic EDF (i.e., which schedules tasks on basis of deadline only)is not suitable for cloud environment. Therefore, this work proposes modified Preemptive EDF (p‐EDF) and Non‐Preemptive EDF (np‐EDF) algorithms considering task priority and cloud provider cost. As both algorithms have their own merits and de‐merits, a hybrid EDF is further proposed which makes decision dynamically whether to cause preemption or not, using a Determiner function. The objective of the work is to avoid unnecessary wastage of CPU power and time due to unnecessary preemptions, along with avoiding unnecessary deadline misses such that the high priority task does not wait for the low priority task to end. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other considered benchmark scheme for different performance parameters such as Deadline Miss Count, Preemption Count and average waiting time.
Pose estimation method for autonomous landing of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle

For the autonomous landing of drones, the design and detection of landing signs is the most critical issue. This paper designs a landing sign that can be detected at different heights. The sign is composed of a circle and 3 nested squares. And based on the landing The logo gives the research method of UAV pose estimation. The UAV&#x0027;s detection of markers during the landing process is divided into two stages. In the high-altitude stage, the target area is determined by identifying the circle of the landing target; at low altitude In the stage, by detecting the corner points of the nested squares, obtaining the corner point coordinate information to estimate the position and angle information of the UAV and the landing platform. The experimental results show that the method can calculate the relative pose of the UAV and the landing platform. Parameters to achieve autonomous landing.

Application of Bayesian Network in Performance Evaluation of Talents with Five Dimensions

The results of 32 courses in grade 2019 in Big Data Technology at the Chongqing Vocational Institute of Tourism were used as the data sample. It was categorized into five dimensions, which include being physically and mentally healthy, being culturally competent, being skilled, being innovative, and having developmental potential. Correlations between the training criteria for talents with five dimensions were learned through the structure of Bayesian Networks. parameter learning was based on the structure of Bayesian Networks. The Bayesian Networks structure is implemented so that conditional probabilities of achievement in the five dimensions are obtained. Finally, Bayesian reasoning was used to predict students&#x0027; talents with five dimensions. From the predicted results, it was concluded that it is feasible to macro-regulate student shadowing and centralized practical training. It can provide a basis for departmental decision making and student selection of placements for shadowing.
Engineering nanostructures at the interface between photonics and electronics

Phase change materials, and other functional nanomaterials typically require energy to be applied to them in order to have tunable properties. Typically, they can be tuned either optically, or electrically. However, a fundamental issue is that the interaction size scales of optics and that of electronics are very different - electronics function efficiently (energy/speed-wise) when dimensions are smaller than the wavelengths of light; unfortunately these are smaller than the typical interaction length-scales for optics. This has meant that efficient electro-optical coupling between electronic and photonic switching has been challenging. In this talk, I will talk about recent work within our group of collaborators to integrate concepts from plasmonics to bridge this length-scale disparity in integrated photonics, and present our recent work in this area. Although applied to phase change materials, these concepts are broadly applicable to other functional materials.
Investigating Vrancea intermediate depth seismic activity in Romania using automatic waveform processing methods

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Seismic activity in Romania is dominated by the intermediate-depth earthquakes generated inside the seismogenic body of the Vrancea seismic zone extending to the depth of 180 km. This earthquakes represent the main source of seismic hazard for Romania and neighbouring countries, with the most recent largest events of M 7.7 and 7.4 in 1940 and 1977 that caused significant and widespread destruction. Space distribution of the intermediate-depth earthquakes from Vrancea is constrained to a compact volume (60-180 km in depth and 20x50 km areal extent) falling into the category of, so called, &amp;amp;#8220;seismic nests&amp;amp;#8221;, which have peculiar and not well understood seismogenic mechanisms.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;We present first results obtained by applying the automated waveform analysis schemes to the detection, location and characterization of seismicity from the Vrancea zone to the continuous data recorded at seismic stations of the Romanian seismic network. We evaluate the performance of the methods like network-based full-waveform coherency earthquake detection and location and the template-based waveform similarity analysis for building a detailed view of seismic activity in space and time and to provide a fully automated workflow for continuous seismic data analysis. We use case-specific, for Vrancea seismic region, synthetic example to test the detection and location scheme setup and resolution. The real dataset of continuous seismic data focuses on the two month time period around the recent, moderate (M 5.6) December 27, 2016 earthquake.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The preliminary results of the automated detection and location analysis indicate reduced foreshock and aftershock activity for this event. According to the Romanian earthquake catalog, this appears to be a common pattern for moderate (M ~5.0-6.0) magnitude events. We also discuss the results of the template-based waveform similarity analysis for the detected and located events, as well as how the combination of the two methods can contribute to the enhanced seismic monitoring and hazard assessment.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

INFLUENCE OF CULTURAL FORMULAS ON EDUCATIONAL PROCESSES

The aim of this study is to identify the factors influencing one of the areas of the educational process in the information society and to provide insight into how these processes are influenced by cultural and linguistic diversity in the context of the digital society, from the perspective of teachers of general technical subjects, their thinking, skills and behaviour. Despite the assimilationist approaches, cultural pluralism following the concept of cultural citizenship, where cultural pluralism is not seen as a disruption of difference but in fact as its civic and public emphasis, which becomes visible in the study of transnationalism, the information society is still reflected in a particular light. The movement of people between home and host countries, social, financial and electronic networks in relation to issues of ethnic identity and the creation of cultural spaces are topics that need not only to be professionally studied and described, but also integrated into educational processes, even those primarily focused on technology. But are today's teachers of technical subjects sufficiently prepared and competent to address these topics and transform them into the teaching process? Or do they rely on the fact that technology knows no borders, nationalities, skin colour or gender?
