In order to rationally evaluate the high speed railway operation safety level, the environmental safety evaluation index system of high speed railway should be well established by means of analyzing the impact mechanism of severe weather such as raining, thundering, lightning, earthquake, winding, and snowing. In addition to that, the attribute recognition will be identified to determine the si...

A new learning algorithm, learning by choice of int ern al repr esentations (CHIR), was recently int roduced. Th e basic version of thi s algoriths was developed for a two-layer, single-out put , feedforward network of binary neurons . This paper presents a generalized version of the CHIR algorithm th at is capable of t raining mult ipleoutput net works. A way to ada pt the algorit hm to mult i...

A h t . Understanding knowledge is a fundamental issue in many disciplines. In computer science, knowledge arises not only in the obvious contexts (such as knowledge-based systems), but also in distributed systems (where the goal is to have each processor “know” something, as in Byzantine agreement). A general semantic model of knowledge is introduced, to allow reasoning about statements such a...

Commonly, military training games and simulations depend on participants engaging in the immersive environment and then stopping to glean the meaning of their behaviors through (admittedly, increasingly sophisticated) After Action Reports. In order to derive the meaning of their experience, they must break cognitive engagement with their experience. This is, of course, sub-optimal. While it is ...

This thesis broadens the space of rich yet practical models for structured prediction. Weintroduce a general framework for modeling with four ingredients: (1) latent variables,(2) structural constraints, (3) learned (neural) feature representations of the inputs, and(4) training that takes the approximations made during inference into account. The thesisbuilds up to this framewo...

Developing dynamic moisture management of textiles is great significance for smart clothing. However, the current pore-actuated fabric suffers from macro-dimensional deformation in response. Moreover, limited its ability to control direction and speed sweat transfer. Herein, a patterned cotton (PCF) proposed by constructing thermal-triggered transmission channels on knitted hydrophobic cotton. ...

Abstract We present the analysis of X-ray and optical observations gas filaments observed in radio source 3CR 318.1, associated with NGC 5920, brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) MKW 3 s, a nearby cool core cluster. This work is one first analyses clusters carried out using MUSE observations. aim at identifying main excitation processes responsible for emission arising from these filaments. compleme...

Among all of the slope stability methods, use of stone columns and geosynthetic elements can be a good way for stabilizing. One of the efficient ways in order to reinforce earth slopes is Geogrid Encased Stone Column (GESC). This technique can dramatically increase bearing capacity and decrease settlement rate. The aim of this paper is experimentally to investigate a comparison between the beha...

After a sequence of weeks heavy raining, catastrophic mass movement occurred in the parish Palmeira de Faro, Esposende (N Portugal) on November 23, 2022. The collapsed slope presented maximum height about 21 m and length 45 m. In order to document analyse this case from geotechnical perspective, general survey was devised including use aerial photography, laser scanning conventional topographic...
