Aiming at improving the accuracy of consumption prediction, a hybrid model was constructed, which designs an empirical wavelet filter bank to remove noise factors in original data. Besides the value prediction, the EWT-PGPR model can also give a certain credible interval, which effectively improves the practicability of the model

Research on consumption prediction of spare parts based on fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm and fractional order model

In order to achieve the non-stationary de-noising signal effectively, and to solve the prediction of less sample, a hybrid model composed of FCCA (Fuzzy C-means clustering algorithm) and FOM (Fractional Order Model) was constructed. The degree of each data point was determined by FCCA to de-noise and the p order cumulative matrix was extended to r fractional cumulative matrix, so that the fractional order cumulative grey model was established to make forecasting. The results of numerical example showed that the hybrid model can obtain better prediction accuracy

Impact of North Korean nuclear weapons test on 3 September, 2017 on inland China traced by C-14 and I-129

Environmental impact of North Korea nuclear weapons testing on 3 Sept, 2017, is of key concern. In order to investigate whether there is radioactive leakage and whether it can be transported to inland China, C-14 and I-129 are determined in aerosol samples collected in a Chinese inland city before and after the test. Aerosol Delta C-14 values before and after the test do not show any significant difference. In contrast, a four-fold increase of I-129/I-127 ratios was found after the test. The possible sources of I-129 in these atmospheric samples and the impact of the North Korea nuclear test are discussed

Study of residual artificial neural network for particle identification in the CEPC high-granularity calorimeter prototype

Particle Identification (PID) plays a central role in associating the energy depositions in calorimeter cells with the type of primary particle in a particle flow oriented detector system. In this paper, we propose novel PID methods based on the Residual Network (ResNet) architecture which enable the training of very deep networks, bypass the need to reconstruct feature variables, and ensure the generalization ability among various geometries of detectors, to classify electromagnetic showers and hadronic showers. Using Geant4 simulation samples with energy ranging from 5 GeV to 120 GeV, the efficacy of Residual Connections is validated and the performance of our model is compared with Boosted Decision Trees (BDT) and other pioneering Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approaches. In shower classification, we observe an improvement in background rejection over a wide range of high signal efficiency ($> 95\%$). These findings highlight the prospects of ANN with Residual Blocks for imaging detectors in the PID task of particle physics experiments

Contrastive Speech Mixup for Low-resource Keyword Spotting

Most of the existing neural-based models for keyword spotting (KWS) in smart devices require thousands of training samples to learn a decent audio representation. However, with the rising demand for smart devices to become more personalized, KWS models need to adapt quickly to smaller user samples. To tackle this challenge, we propose a contrastive speech mixup (CosMix) learning algorithm for low-resource KWS. CosMix introduces an auxiliary contrastive loss to the existing mixup augmentation technique to maximize the relative similarity between the original pre-mixed samples and the augmented samples. The goal is to inject enhancing constraints to guide the model towards simpler but richer content-based speech representations from two augmented views (i.e. noisy mixed and clean pre-mixed utterances). We conduct our experiments on the Google Speech Command dataset, where we trim the size of the training set to as small as 2.5 mins per keyword to simulate a low-resource condition. Our experimental results show a consistent improvement in the performance of multiple models, which exhibits the effectiveness of our method.Comment: Accepted by ICASSP 202

SPGM: Prioritizing Local Features for enhanced speech separation performance

Dual-path is a popular architecture for speech separation models (e.g. Sepformer) which splits long sequences into overlapping chunks for its intra- and inter-blocks that separately model intra-chunk local features and inter-chunk global relationships. However, it has been found that inter-blocks, which comprise half a dual-path model's parameters, contribute minimally to performance. Thus, we propose the Single-Path Global Modulation (SPGM) block to replace inter-blocks. SPGM is named after its structure consisting of a parameter-free global pooling module followed by a modulation module comprising only 2% of the model's total parameters. The SPGM block allows all transformer layers in the model to be dedicated to local feature modelling, making the overall model single-path. SPGM achieves 22.1 dB SI-SDRi on WSJ0-2Mix and 20.4 dB SI-SDRi on Libri2Mix, exceeding the performance of Sepformer by 0.5 dB and 0.3 dB respectively and matches the performance of recent SOTA models with up to 8 times fewer parameters

Deep line art video colorization with a few references

Coloring line art images based on the colors of reference images is an important stage in animation production, which is time-consuming and tedious. In this paper, we propose a deep architecture to automatically color line art videos with the same color style as the given reference images. Our framework consists of a color transform network and a temporal refinement network based on 3U-net. The color transform network takes the target line art images as well as the line art and color images of the reference images as input, and generates corresponding target color images. To cope with the large differences between each target line art image and the reference color images, we propose a distance attention layer that utilizes non-local similarity matching to determine the region correspondences between the target image and the reference images and transforms the local color information from the references to the target. To ensure global color style consistency, we further incorporate Adaptive Instance Normalization (AdaIN) with the transformation parameters obtained from a multiple-layer AdaIN that describes the global color style of the references, extracted by an embedder network. The temporal refinement network learns spatiotemporal features through 3D convolutions to ensure the temporal color consistency of the results. Our model can achieve even better coloring results by fine-tuning the parameters with only a small number of samples when dealing with an animation of a new style. To evaluate our method, we build a line art coloring dataset

Non-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging-based radiomics model for the differentiation of pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

PurposeTo evaluate the diagnostic performance of radiomics model based on fully automatic segmentation of pancreatic tumors from non-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for differentiating pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma (PASC) from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).Materials and methodsIn this retrospective study, patients with surgically resected histopathologically confirmed PASC and PDAC who underwent MRI scans between January 2011 and December 2020 were included in the study. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to develop a clinical and radiomics model based on non-enhanced T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. The model performances were determined based on their discrimination and clinical utility. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests were used for survival analysis.ResultsA total of 510 consecutive patients including 387 patients (age: 61 ± 9 years; range: 28–86 years; 250 males) with PDAC and 123 patients (age: 62 ± 10 years; range: 36–84 years; 78 males) with PASC were included in the study. All patients were split into training (n=382) and validation (n=128) sets according to time. The radiomics model showed good discrimination in the validation (AUC, 0.87) set and outperformed the MRI model (validation set AUC, 0.80) and the ring-enhancement (validation set AUC, 0.74).ConclusionsThe radiomics model based on non-enhanced MRI outperformed the MRI model and ring-enhancement to differentiate PASC from PDAC; it can, thus, provide important information for decision-making towards precise management and treatment of PASC
