The Status of RMB Financial Products of Commercial Banks in China: From the Perspective of Homogeneity

With the rapid development of commercial bank financial services in China, some problems arise in the process. This paper focuses on the widely concerned issue of homogeneity, basing on the classification of products, and takes the data from 2007 to 2013 about RMB financial products issued by 17 commercial banks as the sample to analyze the product type, minimum amount, investment period and returns of these products. Reasons for homogeneity will be discussed and recommendations in the aspects of customers, products, marketing channels and financial managers will be made to solve this problem

On the Security Bootstrapping in Named Data Networking

By requiring all data packets been cryptographically authenticatable, the Named Data Networking (NDN) architecture design provides a basic building block for secured networking. This basic NDN function requires that all entities in an NDN network go through a security bootstrapping process to obtain the initial security credentials. Recent years have witnessed a number of proposed solutions for NDN security bootstrapping protocols. Built upon the existing results, in this paper we take the next step to develop a systematic model of security bootstrapping: Trust-domain Entity Bootstrapping (TEB). This model is based on the emerging concept of trust domain and describes the steps and their dependencies in the bootstrapping process. We evaluate the expressiveness and sufficiency of this model by using it to describe several current bootstrapping protocols

Infratentorial superficial siderosis: report of six cases and review of the literature

ObjectivesTo investigate the etiology, clinical manifestations, imaging features, and treatment of patients with infratentorial superficial siderosis (iSS), enhance clinicians' comprehension of this rare disease, and conduct oral deferiprone intervention and subsequent monitoring.MethodsSix patients diagnosed with iSS based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) were enrolled from 2021 to 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. Their clinical datas were summarized, and the etiology and imaging characteristics were analyzed. Follow-up was conducted through telephone or outpatient visits.ResultsAmong the 6 patients, there were 3 males and 3 females. The onset age ranged from 35 to 71 years, with an average onset age of 53 years. The clinical symptoms mainly included acoustic disturbances (6/6), gait imbalance (6/6), dysolfactory (6/6), cognitive impairment (2/6), epilepsy (2/6), and pyramidal tract sign (2/6). Evidence of superficial siderosis was observed on MRI across the cortex, brainstem, cerebellum, and spinal cord in all patients. T2-space sequence MRI revealed two instances of dural tear. During the follow-up period ranging from 1 month to 3 years, three patients who received oral deferiprone treatment showed improvement, whereas the remaining three patients who declined deferiprone treatment demonstrated progression.ConclusionThe primary clinical manifestations of iSS include bilateral sensorineural hearing disturbances, progressive cerebellar ataxia, and spinal cord lesions. The key diagnostic criteria involve the presence of linear hypointensity on T2-WI in the surface region of the nervous system. Dural tear caused by various factors is considered to be the most common cause of iSS, and its treatment mainly involves surgical intervention for hemorrhagic primary diseases as well as pharmacotherapy with deferiprone

A Compressive Sensing Assisted Massive SM-VBLAST System: Error Probability and Capacity Analysis

The concept of massive spatial modulation (SM) assisted vertical bell labs space-time (V-BLAST) (SM-VBLAST) system [1] is proposed, where SM symbols (instead of conventional constellation symbols) are mapped onto the VBLAST structure. We show that the proposed SM-VBLAST is a promising massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) candidate owing to its high throughput and low number of radio frequency (RF) chains used at the transmitter. For the generalized massive SM-VBLAST systems, we first derive both the upper bounds of the average bit error probability (ABEP) and the lower bounds of the ergodic capacity. Then, we develop an efficient error correction mechanism (ECM) assisted compressive sensing (CS) detector whose performance tends to achieve that of the maximum likelihood (ML) detector. Our simulations indicate that the proposed ECM-CS detector is suitable both for massive SM-MIMO based point-to-point and for uplink communications at the cost of a slightly higher complexity than that of the compressive sampling matching pursuit (CoSaMP) based detector in the high SNR region
