Linear-Combined-Code-Based Unambiguous Code Discriminator Design for Multipath Mitigation in GNSS Receivers
Unambiguous tracking and multipath mitigation for Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) signals are two important requirements of modern Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receivers. A GNSS discriminator design method based on optimization technique is proposed in this paper to meet these requirements. Firstly, the discriminator structure based on a linear-combined code is given. Then the requirements of ideal discriminator function are converted into the mathematical constraints and the objective function to form a non-linear optimization problem. Finally, the problem is solved and the local code is generated according to the results. The theoretical analysis and simulation results indicate that the proposed method can completely remove the false lock points for BOC signals and provide superior multipath mitigation performance compared with traditional discriminator and high revolution correlator (HRC) technique. Moreover, the proposed discriminator is easy to implement for not increasing the number of correlators

Bi-Kernel Graph Neural Network with Adaptive Propagation Mechanism for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Graph neural networks (GNNs) have been widely applied for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, due to their impressive representation ability. It is well-known that typical GNNs and their variants work under the assumption of homophily, while most existing GNN-based HSI classification methods neglect the heterophily that is widely present in the constructed graph structure. To deal with this problem, a homophily-guided Bi-Kernel Graph Neural Network (BKGNN) is developed for HSI classification. In the proposed BKGNN, we estimate the homophily between node pairs according to a learnable homophily degree matrix, which is then applied to change the propagation mechanism by adaptively selecting two different kernels to capture homophily and heterophily information. Meanwhile, the learning process of the homophily degree matrix and the bi-kernel feature propagation process are trained jointly to enhance each other in an end-to-end fashion. Extensive experiments on three public data sets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method

Temporal and Regional Differences and Empirical Analysis on Sensitive Factors of the Corn Production Cost in China
The corn production cost (CPC) in China is related to national food security. However, there are few studies on the temporal and regional differences (TRD) and sensitive factors in the CPC. In this paper, the TRD of the corn production cost across various regions, as well as over the entirety of the country from 2008 to 2018, is presented. It is based on the GIS exploratory spatial data analysis method (ESDA). Simultaneously, a spatial panel model is established to conduct an empirical analysis of the main factors affecting the CPC. The results from the period in question show that the CPC in China and the three major production regions present a fluctuating growth trend, mainly associated with the increase in labor prices. Moreover, the CPC exhibits significant spatial differences, and demonstrates an overall trend of gradual increase from the east to the west. Over time, the number of relatively high-cost provinces has increased. All are located in southern mountainous and hilly corn areas. In addition, the CPCs of various regions are spatially correlated. Factors such as the scale of land management, the degree of mechanization, and socioeconomic conditions have a significantly negative impact on the CPC in China. Furthermore, the labor structure has a notably positive impact on the CPC
Semi-supervised Spatial-spectral Discriminant Analysis for Hyperspectral Image Classification
In order to make full use of the spatial information embedded in the hyperspectral image to improve the classification accuracy, a semi-supervised spatial-spectral discriminant analysis (S3DA) algorithm for hyperspectral image classification is proposed. According to the spatial consistency property of hyperspectral image, the intra-class scatter matrix infered from a little labeled samples preserves the spectral similarity of the same class pixels, while the spatial local pixel scatter matrix defined by the unlabeled spatial neighbors uncovers the spatial-domain local pixel neighborhood structures and the ground objects detailed distribution. The S3DA method not only maintains the spectral-domain separability of the data set, but also preserves the spatial-domain local pixel neighborhood structure, which promotes the compactness of the same class pixels or the spatial neighbor pixels in the projected subspace and enhances the classification performance. The overall classification accuracies respectively reach 81.50% and 71.77% on the PaviaU and Indian Pines data sets. Compared with the traditional spectral methods, the proposed method can effectively improve ground objects classification accuracy
