    Abstract Temporal intent is an important component of events. It plays an important role in collecting them from the web with focused crawlers. However, traditionally focused crawlers usually only consider factors such as topic keywords, web page content, and anchor text, ignoring the relationship between web pages and the temporal intent of events. This leads to their poor crawling performance. This paper aims to understand the temporal intent of events and apply it within focused crawlers. First, a new temporal intent identification method is proposed based on Google Trends data. The method can automatically identify the start time of an event and quantify the temporal distribution of the event. Then, a new focused event crawler with temporal intent is proposed. The crawler incorporates the start time of the event into the similarity calculation module, and a new URL (Uniform Resource Locator) priority assignment method is developed using the quantified temporal distribution of temporal intent as the independent variable of a natural exponential function. Experimental results show that our method is effective in identifying the start time of events at the month level and quantifying the temporal distribution of events. Furthermore, compared to the traditional best-first crawling method, the precision of our method improves by an average of 10.28%, and a maximum of 25.21%. These results indicate that our method performs better in retrieving relevant pages and assigning URL priority. This also illustrates the importance of the relationship between web pages and the temporal intent of events.

    Abstract Polysaccharides extracted from natural resources have attracted extensive attention in biomedical research and pharmaceutical fields, due to their medical values in anti-tumor, immunomodulation, drug delivery, and many other aspects. At present, a variety of natural polysaccharides have been developed as adjuvant drugs in clinical application. Benefit from their structural variability, polysaccharides have great potential in regulating cellular signals. Some polysaccharides exert direct anti-tumor effects by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, while the majority of polysaccharides can regulate the host immune system and indirectly inhibit tumors by activating either non-specific or specific immune responses. As the essential of microenvironment in the process of tumor development has been gradually revealed, some polysaccharides were found to inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells

    Abstract With the development of the Chinese Fengyun satellite series, Fengyun-2G (FY-2G) quantitative precipitation estimates (QPE) can provide real-time and high-quality precipitation data over East Asia. However, FY-2G QPE cannot offer precipitation information beyond the latitude band of 50°N due to the limitation of the observation coverage of the FY-2G-based satellite-borne sensor. To this end, a precipitation space reconstruction using the geographically weighted regression (GWR) coupled with a geographical differential analysis (GDA) (PSR2G) algorithm was developed, based on the land surface variables related to precipitation, including vegetational cover, land surface temperature, geographical location, and topographic characteristics. This study used the PSR2G-based reconstructed model to estimate the FY-2G QPE over Northeast China (the latitude band beyond 50°N) from December 2015 to November 2019 with a spatiotemporal resolution of 0.1°/month. The PSR2G-based reconstructed results were validated with the ground observations of 80 rain gauges, and also compared to the reconstructed results using random forest (RF) and GWR. The results show that the spatio-temporal pattern of PSR2G QPE is closer to ground observations than those of RF and GWR, which indicates that the PSR2G QPE is more competent to capture the spatio-temporal variation of rainfall over Northeast China than other two reconstruction methods. In addition, the reconstructed precipitation dataset using PSR2G has higher accuracy over study area than the FY-2G QPE below the band of 50°N. It suggested that PSR2G reconstruction precipitation strategies do not lose the precision of the original satellite precipitation data.

    Abstract The Lunar Gravity Compensation Facility (LGCF) is a critical component in ground tests for a crewed lunar roving vehicle (CLRV). The track-following servo subsystem’s performance is of critical importance in the LGCF, as it needs to achieve high-precision tracking of the CLRV’s fast, wide range of motion in the horizontal direction. The subsystem must also operate within various constraints, including those related to speed, acceleration, and position. These requirements introduce new challenges to both the design and control of the subsystem. To tackle these challenges, this paper employs a Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) vector control method based on Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) to achieve accurate speed tracking. Additionally, this paper presents an Explicit Model Predictive Control (EMPC) strategy for precise position servo control of the track-following system under multi-parameter constraints. The simulation model of the track-following servo subsystem is established based on the above methods. The simulation results demonstrate that the position tracking error of the gravity compensation system, constructed using the above method combined with EMPC control, is less than 0.2 m. The control performance of the EMPC is significantly better than those of the PI and LQI controllers. The influence of errors on the drawbar pull is within 12.5%, and its effect on the compensation force is negligible. These results provide theoretical support for the design of a track-following servo subsystem.

    Abstract In practice, constant-resistance, energy-absorbing, and anti-scouring bolts inevitably deflect at an angle from the coal wall and other bearing surfaces, eventually giving way and losing their energy-absorbing function. The aim of this study was to determine the applicable range of deflection angles for constant-resistance, energy-absorbing, and anti-scouring bolts and to provide a reference design for bolt construction. The principle of application of bolts under various deflection angles was proposed, and the numerical simulation of use of constant-resistance, energy-absorbing, and anti-scouring bolts was carried out using ABAQUS finite element software. The effects of deflection angle, impact energy, and impact velocity on the deformation performance, load-bearing performance, and energy absorption performance of the bolts were investigated. The deformation process of the bolt based on deflection angle was found to change from axial stretching to “stretching and bending”. As the deflection angle increased, the load bearing capacity of the anti-punching device increased, and the bolt’s breaking force increased after decreasing, and then decreased again while absorption energy decreased non-linearly. The bolt yield distance decreased while the displacement of bolts remained essentially the same and the deflection distance of the anti-punching device decreased. The stroke efficiency of bolts decreased and, based on the design principles of constant-resistance, energy-absorbing, and anti-scouring bolts, it was determined that the bolt was still applicable within a deflection angle of 0–17°. The impact energy had a minor effect on the bolt indicators of yield force, breaking force, and energy absorption, and the bolt’s impact resistance time decreased non-linearly with increasing impact energy. Impact velocity had less effect on bolt yield force and breaking force. Both yielding time and anti-punching load capacity of the bolt decreased with increased impact velocity. As the impact velocity increased, yield ...

    Abstract Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is widely used in seismic data denoising due to its simplicity and effectiveness. However, traditional seismic denoising methods based on CNN ignore multi-scale features of seismic data in the wavelet domain. The lack of these features will decrease the accuracy of denoising results. To address this barrier, a seismic denoise method based on the wavelet-inspired invertible network with atrous convolutions spatial pyramid (WINNet_ACSP) is proposed. WINNet_ACSP follows the principle of lifting wavelet transform. The proposed method utilizes the redundant orthogonal wavelet transform to obtain frequency multi-scale information from noisy seismic data. Then predict update network (PUNet) extracts spatial multi-scale features of approximate and detailed parts. The sparse driven network (SDN) learns the complex multi-scale information and obtains sparse features. These sparse features are processed to eliminate random noise. Compared to standard convolution, the atrous convolutions spatial pyramid (ACSP) can extract more features. The redundant features are the key to ensure the precision of multi-scale information. Therefore, the introduction of ACSP in PUNet can guarantee the denoising effect of the network. WINNet_ASCP combines the characteristics of wavelet transform and neural network and has a high generalization. Besides, transfer learning is used to overcome the difficulty caused by the training sample size of seismic data. The training process includes pre-training and post-training. The former is trained to obtain the initial denoising network by natural image samples. The latter is trained with a small sample of seismic data to enhance stratigraphic continuity. Finally, the proposed method is tested with synthetic and field data. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively remove random noise and reduce the loss of detailed information in prestack seismic data. In the future, we will make further improvements on this basis and conduct experiments ...

    Abstract While there is a wealth of knowledge about core object recognition—our ability to recognize clear, high-contrast object images—how the brain accomplishes object recognition tasks under increased uncertainty remains poorly understood. We investigated the spatiotemporal neural dynamics underlying object recognition under increased uncertainty by combining MEG and 7 Tesla (7T) fMRI in humans during a threshold-level object recognition task. We observed an early, parallel rise of recognition-related signals across ventral visual and frontoparietal regions that preceded the emergence of category-related information. Recognition-related signals in ventral visual regions were best explained by a two-state representational format whereby brain activity bifurcated for recognized and unrecognized images. By contrast, recognition-related signals in frontoparietal regions exhibited a reduced representational space for recognized images, yet with sharper category information. These results provide a spatiotemporally resolved view of neural activity supporting object recognition under uncertainty, revealing a pattern distinct from that underlying core object recognition.

    Abstract One of the important tasks of the Chinese geostationary and meteorological satellite Fengyun-2 (FY2) series is to provide quantitative precipitation estimates (QPE) with high spatiotemporal resolutions for East Asia. To analyze the monitoring capabilities of FY2-based QPEs in extreme rainfall events, this study comprehensively evaluated and compared the performances of FY-2G and FY-2H QPEs for the “7.20” rainstorm in Henan province, China from 17 July 2021 to 22 July 2021. Three continuous metrics and three categorical metrics were adopted to assess the accuracies of FY-2G and FY-2H QPEs, referenced by gauge observations from 116 meteorological stations. The results show that the FY-2G QPE has lower BIAS (−9.64% for FY-2G, −46.22% for FY-2H) and RMSE (5.83 mm/h for FY-2G, 8.4 mm/h for FY-2H) and higher CC (0.57 for FY-2G, 0.24 for FY-2H) than FY-2H QPE in this rainstorm event. Moreover, the FY-2G QPE is not only more consistent with the ground reference with respect to the rainfall amount, but also has higher detecting capability in the “7.20” rainstorm event when compared with the FY-2H QPE. The FY-2G QPE presented a higher capability to correctly capture the precipitation event for the “7.20” rainstorm because of higher POD (probability of detection) and CSI (critical success index) relative to FY-2H QPE, especially in complex topography. From the spatial distribution of precipitation amount, the FY-2G QPE captured the rainstorm center of extreme precipitation more accurately relative to the latest FY-2H product. On the other hand, the previous generation of FY-2G QPE was closer to the continuous rainfall process and precipitation duration with ground observations than the latest FY-2H QPE. Therefore, the precipitation retrieval algorithm of FY-2H QPE still had room to improve. It is necessary to introduce error correction algorithms, especially in complex topography for rainstorm events.
