Z...The process of disposing of expanded polystyrene (EPS) is by burning it in municipal incinerators. This process gives off EPS microplastics, which can find their way into water, food, blood, and major organ systems. Zophobas morio larvae are capable of consuming and breaking down EPS within their digestive tracts by minimizing the spread of microplastics. Studies of the consumption of EPS by Z. morio larvae are typically conducted under white or no visible light treatments. This study tested whether the color of visible light influenced the consumption rate of EPS by Z. morio larvae. If Z. morio larvae consume EPS under visible light, then visible light will influence the amount of EPS consumed. If results suggest that the consumption rate is influenced by visible light colors, then Z. morio larvae could be a solution for recycling EPS. This study’s procedure placed Z. morio larvae into 25 jars under one of six visible light treatments of red, yellow, green, blue, white, and no visible light. Each jar contained a pre-weighed block of EPS and six Z. morio larvae. After two weeks, the Z. morio larvae were removed from the jars, and the difference between each pre-weighed EPS block and the weight of the same partially consumed block was recorded in three trials. The data indicates that green and blue visible light treatments resulted in the greatest amount of EPS consumed by Z. morio larvae while the red and yellow had the least amount of EPS consumed by the Z. morio larvae. In conclusion, results indicate that green and blue visible light, compared to the no visible light treatment, could be used to influence the Z. morio larvae to consume more EPS. Green and blue visible light and Z. morio larvae could make the recycling process of EPS more environmentally friendly when used in households or by local environmental organizations.展开更多

Here, we demonstrate a mobile light communication system using a time-division multiplexing(TDM) scheme to achieve bidirectional data transmission via the same optical channel.Two identical blue MQW diodes are defined by software as a transmitter or a receiver. To address the light alignment issue, an image identification module integrated with a gimbal stabilizer is used to automatically detect the locations of moving targets;thus, underwater audio communication is realized via a mobile blue-light TDM communication mode. This approach not only uses a single link but also integrates mobile nodes in a practical network.展开更多

In the context of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), the development of efficient and reliable traffic light detection mechanisms is crucial for enhancing road safety and traffic management. This paper presents an optimized convolutional neural network (CNN) framework designed to detect traffic lights in real-time within complex urban environments. Leveraging multi-scale pyramid feature maps, the proposed model addresses key challenges such as the detection of small, occluded, and low-resolution traffic lights amidst complex backgrounds.

文摘In the tropical regions represented by Hainan,there are abundant solar and thermal resources,and it is relatively suitable for the construction of photovoltaic greenhouse(PVG).However,the construction of PVG still relies mainly on experience and is incapable of quantifying the balance between the photovoltaic(PV)generation and the light requirements for agricultural production.As a result,actual PVGs are primarily PV-based,without carefully considering the needs of agricultural daylighting.To quantify the influence of the design parameters of PVGs and the layout of PV panels on the internal daylighting of serrated PVGs,and to optimize the daylighting design of the roof,this paper utilizes the Design Builder software to establish gradient models for a multi-span serrated-type PVG in tropical regions.Gradient models were established in terms of aspects,namely span,width of longitudinal/transverse daylighting strip,height,roof angle,and photovoltaic panel coverage rate(PCR).Daylighting in the greenhouse of each gradient model was simulated,and with the annual average daily light integral(A_(DLI))and distribution uniformity(DU)as evaluation indicators,the influence of various design parameters on the daylighting inside the greenhouse was quantified.The result reveals that:(1)PCR is the decisive indicator for daylighting in the PVG,and a function between PCR and the A_(DLI) is derived as A_(DLI)=-15.5 PCR+16.841;(2)Increasing the width of longitudinal daylighting strip significantly improves the A_(DLI) and enhances DU while increasing the span has a noticeable effect on improving A_(DLI) but does not significantly enhance DU;(3)Increasing the eave height without changing PCR does not enhance A_(DLI) but effectively improves DU;increasing the transverse daylighting strip and adjusting the roof angle hardly improves A_(DLI).In summary,it is recommended that the optimal span for PVGs in tropical regions be set within the range of 6.5-8.0m,and the eave height be set within the range of 2.5-3.5m.Preferably,the longitudinal daylighting strip with a width ranging from 0.5-0.8m should be installed.Based on the above relationship function,the PCR can be calculated according to the appropriate light demand for the cultivated crops.The daylighting design theory proposed in this paper can provide a theoretical basis and reference for the healthy development of the PV industry in tropical regions.
文摘The process of disposing of expanded polystyrene (EPS) is by burning it in municipal incinerators. This process gives off EPS microplastics, which can find their way into water, food, blood, and major organ systems. Zophobas morio larvae are capable of consuming and breaking down EPS within their digestive tracts by minimizing the spread of microplastics. Studies of the consumption of EPS by Z. morio larvae are typically conducted under white or no visible light treatments. This study tested whether the color of visible light influenced the consumption rate of EPS by Z. morio larvae. If Z. morio larvae consume EPS under visible light, then visible light will influence the amount of EPS consumed. If results suggest that the consumption rate is influenced by visible light colors, then Z. morio larvae could be a solution for recycling EPS. This study’s procedure placed Z. morio larvae into 25 jars under one of six visible light treatments of red, yellow, green, blue, white, and no visible light. Each jar contained a pre-weighed block of EPS and six Z. morio larvae. After two weeks, the Z. morio larvae were removed from the jars, and the difference between each pre-weighed EPS block and the weight of the same partially consumed block was recorded in three trials. The data indicates that green and blue visible light treatments resulted in the greatest amount of EPS consumed by Z. morio larvae while the red and yellow had the least amount of EPS consumed by the Z. morio larvae. In conclusion, results indicate that green and blue visible light, compared to the no visible light treatment, could be used to influence the Z. morio larvae to consume more EPS. Green and blue visible light and Z. morio larvae could make the recycling process of EPS more environmentally friendly when used in households or by local environmental organizations.

文摘Two-dimensional Dion-Jacobson(DJ)perovskite has garnered significant attention due to its superior responsivity and operation stability.However,efforts are predominantly focused on discovering new organic spacer to synthesize novel perovskites,while material-form-associated light management,which is crucial for enhancing the photodetector’s efficiency,is largely overlooked.Herein,we introduced surface light management strategy into DJ-type perovskite system by synthesizing surface-patterned BDAPbBr4(BPB,BDA=NH_(3)(CH_(2))_(4)NH_(3))microplates(MPs)using template-assisted space-confined method,which was further elucidated by theoretical optical simulation.By leveraging surface-patterned MPs to enhance light absorption,the BPB-based photodetectors(PDs)achieved remarkable photoresponse in ultraviolet region,marked by a high on/off ratio(~5000),superior responsivity(2.24 A W^(-1)),along with large detectivity(~10^(13) Jones)and low detection limit(68.7 nW cm^(-2)).Additionally,the PDs showcased superior light communication and imaging capabilities even under weak-light illumination.Notably,the anisotropic nature of the surface-patterned MPs conferred excellent polarization sensitivity to the PD.These results represented the first demonstration of BPB perovskite in weak-light communication and imaging,as well as in polarized light detection.Our findings offer valuable insights into enhancing photodetector performance and optoelectronic applications through surface light management strategies.

文摘Secondary salinization is a major environmental factor that causes a stress response and growth inhibition in plants in protected agriculture.The positive effect of a low red to far-red light ratio(R:FR)in salt tolerance through antioxidant defense has been reported,while the underlying model remains obscure.In this study,we used physiological and genetic approaches to investigate the relationship between H_(2)O_(2) signaling and low R:FR-induced salt tolerance and antioxidant capacity in tomato seedlings.This study found that low R:FR treatment with calcium nitrate stress(SL treatment)enhanced the growth of plants and increased the net photosynthetic rate 5 days after stress compared with a higher R:FR ratio and calcium nitrate stress(S treatment).With transcriptomic analysis of tomato leaves at 5 d,compared with CK,most of glutaredoxin genes and antioxidant enzymes were upregulated by S treatment,which were upregulated further by SL treatment.Compared to the S treatment,within 5 days,the H_(2)O_(2) level was increased faster before 24 h and it was slowed down after 24 h by SL treatment,with less H_(2)O_(2) accumulation at 5 d than that of S treatment.The enhancement of gene expression of RBOH genes were also shown at 24 h under SL.It was found that stomatal conductance followed the dynamic change of H_(2)O_(2),with a rapid closure of stomata of a decrease at 3 h and an increase after 9 h in SL treatment compared to S treatment,respectively.There was same trend of stomata opening degrees of tomato leaves observed by optical microscope.However,the inhibitor of H_(2)O_(2) production(DPI pretreatment)weakened the positive effect of low R:FR on the regulation of stomatal movement.In addition,SL treatment increased the antioxidant enzyme activities and proline content and decreased the MDA content as compared to the S treatment,while the enhancement of ROS homeostasis was reduced by the DPI pretreatment.In conclusion,low R:FR improved redox homeostasis and stomatal status under calcium nitrate stress through H_(2)O_(2)signaling,improving the adaptation of tomato seedlings to soil salinization stress.

文摘BACKGROUND Pharmacological treatments are commonly used in individuals experiencing perinatal depression(PPD);however,a debate regarding the reproductive safety of antidepressants is ongoing.Many pregnant women opt to discontinue antidepressant out of concern about potential negative effects on the developing fetus,while slow and ineffective antidepressant medications hinder improved outcomes in women with PPD.In recent years,bright light therapy(BLT)has gained traction as a treatment option for PPD;however,clinical trials findings examining the efficacy of BLT in this population have been inconclusive.AIM To validate the feasibility and safety of BLT for the treatment of PPD.METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of patients with PPD treated with BLT vs placebo following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis.We searched PubMed,Embase,the Cochrane Library,and Web of Science for randomized controlled studies published up to December 2023.The results were evaluated using the standardized mean difference of improvement for depression scores and odds ratios(ORs)for remission rate,response rate,incidence of adverse events,and dropout rate.RESULTS The BLT group had higher PPD response rate[50.68%vs 33.08%;OR=2.05;95% confidence interval(CI):1.25-3.35;P=0.004;I^(2)=35%]and remission rate(54.10%vs 18.52%;OR=5.00;95%CI:2.09-11.99;P=0.0003;I^(2)=0%)than the placebo group.Improvements in depression scores were higher in the BLT group than the placebo group for the overall efficacy(standardized mean difference=-0.47;95%CI:-0.80 to-0.13;P=0.007).No significant differences between the two groups in drop-outs(21.84%vs 29.63%;OR=0.63;95%CI:0.31-1.29;P=0.21;I^(2)=0%)or adverse events(17.89%vs 9.68%;OR=2.01;95%CI:0.95-4.25;P=0.07;I^(2)=0%)were observed.CONCLUSION BLT can potentially treat PPD,showing better results than the control group in this study.BLT is effective and safe and could increase the available therapeutic options for PPD.

文摘The diurnal variation in the sun's altitude alters the red-to-blue light spectrum ratio under identical water layers.This study explores how juvenile steelhead trout(Oncorhynchus mykiss)(initial weight:34.67 g±2.69 g)responds to these fluctuating light conditions,focusing on growth,daily activity levels,and energy budget.During 16 weeks,the experiment was conducted to examine six lighting scenarios:12 h white light followed by 12 h darkness(12W);12 h blue light followed by 12 h darkness(12B);12 h red light followed by 12 h darkness(12R);1.5 h blue light,9 h red light,and again 1.5 h blue light followed by 12 h darkness(3B9R);3 h blue light,6h red light,and again 3 h blue light followed by 12 h darkness(6B6R);and 12 h combined blue and red lights followed by 12 h darkness(T12BR).The findings reveal that the 3B9R lighting condition notably enhanced specific growth rate(SGR),feed conversion efficiency(FCE),and growth energy allocation,while diminishing daily activity levels in steelhead trout.Conversely,under the 6B6R condition,there was a significant reduction in SGR and FCE,indicating that growth was inhibited.Under the 12R condition,despite the high activity and respiratory energy loss,the trout exhibited improved SGR and FCE with reduced fecal energy loss.The study suggests that 3B9R and 12R lighting conditions might be beneficial in commercial steelhead trout farming,potentially lowering costs and boosting production.These results offer valuable insights for the application of supplementary lighting technology in salmon aquaculture.

文摘Suitable temperature and light intensity play important roles in the formation of harmful algae blooms(HABs),which can pose serious threats to aquatic ecosystems and human health.In this study,we measured the growth,physiological function,and paralytic shellfish toxins(PSTs)production of Alexandrium pacificum(CCMA-272),a strain isolated from East China Sea,at different temperatures(15,20,and 25℃)and light intensities(30,60,and 90μmol photons/(m^(2)·s)).Results indicate that temperature and light intensity significantly affected the growth,physiology,and toxigenic potentials of A.pacificum.The optimal conditions for the growth of A.pacificum were observed at 20℃ under60μmol photons/(m^(2)·s).Regarding the production of PSTs,this strain of A.pacificum produced 12 PSTs,including carbamate toxins:saxitoxin(STX),neosaxitoxin(NEO),and gonyautoxin 1–4(GTX1,GTX2,GTX3,GTX4);dicarbamoyl toxins:dicarbamoylsaxitoxin(dcSTX),dicarbamoylgonyautoxin 2,3(dcGTX2,dcGTX3);and N-sulfocarbamoyl toxins:N-sulfocarbamoylgonyautoxin 1,2(C1,C2),and gonyautoxin 5(GTX5).Among all the PSTs,C2 was the most abundant.Low temperature(15℃)and high light intensity(90μmol photons/(m^(2)·s))were beneficial for the production of PSTs in A.pacificum.When cultured at 20 and 25℃,A.pacificum generated comparable total quantities of PSTs,yet the toxicity levels were lower at 25℃.Intra-cellular PSTs contents were greater than extra-cellular PSTs contents,except those under the condition of 25℃ with 30μmol photons/(m^(2)·s).However,as the increase of temperature,A.pacificum released more amounts of analogues with higher toxicity levels(e.g.,STX and dcGTX_(2))into the environment than intracellularly.These findings emphasize the significant sensitivity of A.pacificum to temperature and light intensity,highlighting the importance of evaluating both intra-cellular and extra-cellular PSTs for assessing its toxicity and aiding in the prediction and management of HABs.

文摘Femtosecond laser processing is an important machining method for micro-optical components such as Fresnel zone plate(FZP).However,the low processing efficiency of the femtosecond laser restricts its application.Here,a femtosecond laser Bessel beam is proposed to process micro-FZP,which is modulated from a Gaussian beam to a Bessel annular beam.The processing time for FZP with an outer diameter of 60μm is reduced from 30 min to 1.5 min on an important semiconductor material gallium arsenide(GaAs),which significantly improves the processing efficiency.In the modulation process,a central ablation hole that has an adverse effect on the diffraction performance is produced,and the adverse effect is eliminated by superimposing the blazed grating hologram.Meanwhile,the FZP machined by spatial light modulator(SLM)has good morphology and higher diffraction efficiency,which provides a strong guarantee for the application of micro-FZP in computed tomography and solar photovoltaic cells.

文摘The distributions of light and nitrogen within a plant's canopy reflect the growth adaptation of crops to the environment and are conducive to improving the carbon assimilation ability.So can the yield in crop production be maximized by improving the light and nitrogen distributions without adding any additional inputs?In this study,the effects of different nitrogen application rates and planting densities on the canopy light and nitrogen distributions of two highyielding maize cultivars(XY335 and DH618)and the regulatory effects of canopy physiological characteristics on radiation use efficiency(RUE)and yield were studied based on high-yield field experiments in Qitai,Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,China,during 2019 and 2020.The results showed that the distribution of photosynthetically active photon flux density(PPFD)in the maize canopy decreased from top to bottom,while the vertical distribution of specific leaf nitrogen(SLN)initially increased and then decreased from top to bottom in the canopy.When SLN began to decrease,the PPDF values of XY335 and DH618 were 0.5 and 0.3,respectively,corresponding to 40.6 and49.3%of the total leaf area index(LAI).Nitrogen extinction coefficient(K_(N))/light extinction coefficient(K_(L))ratio in the middle and lower canopy of XY335(0.32)was 0.08 higher than that of DH618(0.24).The yield and RUE of XY335(17.2 t ha^(-1)and 1.8g MJ^(-1))were 7.0%(1.1 t ha^(-1))and 13.7%(0.2 g MJ^(-1))higher than those of DH618(16.1 t ha^(-1)and 1.6 g MJ^(-1)).Therefore,better light conditions(where the proportion of LAI in the upper and middle canopy was small)improved the light distribution when SLN started to decline,thus helping to mobilize the nitrogen distribution and maintain a high K_(N)and K_(N)/K_(L)ratio.In addition,K_(N)/K_(L)was a key parameter for yield improvement when the maize nutrient requirements were met at 360 kg N ha^(-1).At this level,an appropriately optimized high planting density could promote nitrogen utilization and produce higher yields and greater efficiency.The results of this study will be important for achieving high maize yields and the high efficiency cultivation and breeding of maize in the future.
文摘Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)based photocatalysts utilizing infrared light remains unexplored due to the limitation of electronic absorption.Herein,two novel two-dimensional(2D)polyimide-linked phthalocyanine COFs,namely MPc-DPA-COFs(M=Zn/Cu),were prepared from the imidization reaction of metal tetraanhydrides of 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octacarboxyphthalocyaninato(M(TAPc))with 9,10-diphenyl anthracene(DPA).Both COFs possess highly crystalline eclipsed AA stacking structure with neighboring layer distance of 0.33 nm on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction analysis and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy.Effective π–π interaction between phthalocyanine chromophores in neighboring layers of 2D COFs leads to significant bathochromic-shift of narrow Q band from 697 nm for M(TAPc)to the infrared light absorption range of 760–1000 nm for MPc-DPA-COFs according to solid UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra.This endows them in particular ZnPc-DPA-COF with excellent reactive oxygen species of•O_(2)^(–)and 1O_(2) generation activity under infrared light radiation(λ>760 nm)based on the electron spin resonance spectroscopy measurement,in turn resulting in the excellent photocatalytic capacity towards oxidation of sulfides under infrared light radiation.Corresponding quenching experiments reveal the contribution of both•O_(2)^(–)and 1O_(2) to the oxidation of sulfides,but the former•O_(2)^(–)species plays a leading role in this photocatalytic process.The present result not only provides a new efficient infrared light photocatalyst but also unveils the good potentials of phthalocyanine-based COFs in photocatalysis.
文摘This paper comprehensively analyzes the evolution of traffic light systems in Shanghai,highlighting the technological advancements and their impact on traffic management and safety.Starting from the historical context of the first traffic light in London in 1868 to the modern automated systems,the study explores the complexity and adaptability of traffic lights in Shanghai.Through field surveys and interviews with traffic engineers,the paper debunks common misconceptions about traffic light operation,revealing a sophisticated network that responds to real-time traffic dynamics using software like the Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System(SCATS)6.The study also discusses the importance of pedestrian safety,suggesting future enhancements such as Global Positioning System(GPS)based emergency systems and accommodations for color-blind individuals.The paper further delves into the potential of Artificial Intelligence(AI)and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure(V21)technology in revolutionizing traffic light systems,emphasizing their role in improving traffic flow and safety.The findings underscore Shanghai’s progressive approach to traffic management,showcasing the city’s commitment to optimizing traffic control solutions for the benefit of both vehicles and pedestrians.

文摘The first 2^(+)excited states of the nucleus directly reflect the interaction between the shell structure and the nucleus,providing insights into the validity of the shell model and nuclear structure characteristics.Although the features of the first 2^(+)excited states can be measured for stable nuclei and calculated using nuclear models,significant uncertainty remains.This study employs a machine learning model based on a light gradient boosting machine(LightGBM)to investigate the first 2^(+)excited states.Specifically,the training of the LightGBM algorithm and the prediction of the first 2^(+)properties of 642 nuclei are presented.Furthermore,detailed comparisons of the LightGBM predictions were performed with available experimental data,shell model calculations,and Bayesian neural network predictions.The results revealed that the average difference between the LightGBM predictions and the experimental data was 18 times smaller than that obtained by the shell model and only 70%of the BNN prediction results.Considering Mg,Ca,Kr,Sm,and Pb isotopes as examples,it was also observed that LightGBM can effectively reproduce the magic number mutation caused by shell effects,with the energy being as low as 0.04 MeV due to shape coexistence.Therefore,we believe that leveraging LightGBM-based machine learning can profoundly enhance our insights into nuclear structures and provide new avenues for nuclear physics research.
文摘Hypersonic Glide Vehicles(HGVs)are advanced aircraft that can achieve extremely high speeds(generally over 5 Mach)and maneuverability within the Earth's atmosphere.HGV trajectory prediction is crucial for effective defense planning and interception strategies.In recent years,HGV trajectory prediction methods based on deep learning have the great potential to significantly enhance prediction accuracy and efficiency.However,it's still challenging to strike a balance between improving prediction performance and reducing computation costs of the deep learning trajectory prediction models.To solve this problem,we propose a new deep learning framework(FECA-LSMN)for efficient HGV trajectory prediction.The model first uses a Frequency Enhanced Channel Attention(FECA)module to facilitate the fusion of different HGV trajectory features,and then subsequently employs a Light Sampling-oriented Multi-Layer Perceptron Network(LSMN)based on simple MLP-based structures to extract long/shortterm HGV trajectory features for accurate trajectory prediction.Also,we employ a new data normalization method called reversible instance normalization(RevIN)to enhance the prediction accuracy and training stability of the network.Compared to other popular trajectory prediction models based on LSTM,GRU and Transformer,our FECA-LSMN model achieves leading or comparable performance in terms of RMSE,MAE and MAPE metrics while demonstrating notably faster computation time.The ablation experiments show that the incorporation of the FECA module significantly improves the prediction performance of the network.The RevIN data normalization technique outperforms traditional min-max normalization as well.
文摘Sentiment analysis,a cornerstone of natural language processing,has witnessed remarkable advancements driven by deep learning models which demonstrated impressive accuracy in discerning sentiment from text across various domains.However,the deployment of such models in resource-constrained environments presents a unique set of challenges that require innovative solutions.Resource-constrained environments encompass scenarios where computing resources,memory,and energy availability are restricted.To empower sentiment analysis in resource-constrained environments,we address the crucial need by leveraging lightweight pre-trained models.These models,derived from popular architectures such as DistilBERT,MobileBERT,ALBERT,TinyBERT,ELECTRA,and SqueezeBERT,offer a promising solution to the resource limitations imposed by these environments.By distilling the knowledge from larger models into smaller ones and employing various optimization techniques,these lightweight models aim to strike a balance between performance and resource efficiency.This paper endeavors to explore the performance of multiple lightweight pre-trained models in sentiment analysis tasks specific to such environments and provide insights into their viability for practical deployment.

文摘Multiple quantum well(MQW) Ⅲ-nitride diodes that can simultaneously emit and detect light feature an overlapping region between their electroluminescence and responsivity spectra, which allows them to be simultaneously used as both a transmitter and a receiver in a wireless light communication system. Here, we demonstrate a mobile light communication system using a time-division multiplexing(TDM) scheme to achieve bidirectional data transmission via the same optical channel.Two identical blue MQW diodes are defined by software as a transmitter or a receiver. To address the light alignment issue, an image identification module integrated with a gimbal stabilizer is used to automatically detect the locations of moving targets;thus, underwater audio communication is realized via a mobile blue-light TDM communication mode. This approach not only uses a single link but also integrates mobile nodes in a practical network.

文摘Assessing regional economic development is key for advancing towards the Sustainable Development Goals and ensuring sustainable societal progress.Traditional evaluation methods focus on basic economic metrics like population and capital,which may not fully reflect the complexities of economic activities.Nighttime light(NTL)has been validated as an alternative indicator for regional economic development,yet limitations persist in its evaluation.This study integrates OpenStreetMap(OSM)data and NTL data,providing a novel data integration approach for evaluating economic development.The study uses mainland of China as a case,applying ordinary least squares(OLS)and geographically weighted regression(GWR)to evaluate OSM and NTL data across provincial,municipal,and county levels.It compares OSM,NTL,and their combined use,providing key empirical insights for enhancing data fusion models.The study results reveal:(1)NTL data is more accurate for provincial-level economic activity,while OSM data excels at the county level.(2)GWR demonstrates superior capability over OLS in revealing the spatial dynamics of economic development across scales.(3)Through the integration of both datasets,it is observed that,compared to single-data modeling,the performance is enhanced at the city scale and county scale.The study demonstrates that combining OSM and NTL data effectively assesses economic development in both developed and underdeveloped areas at provincial,municipal,and county levels.The study offers a straightforward and efficient approach to data integration.The findings offer new research perspectives and scientific support for sustainable regional economic growth,particularly valuable in data-scarce,underdeveloped areas.

文摘This work aimed to study the efficiency of the reverse micelle(RM)preparation route in the syntheses of sub-5 nm Fe-doped CeO_(2)nanocrystals for boosting the visible-light-driven photocatalytic hydrogen production from methanol aqueous solutions.The effectiveness of confining precipitation reactions within micellar cages was evaluated through extensive physicochemical cha racterization.In particula r,the nominal composition(0-5 mol%Fe)was preserved as ascertained by ICP-MS analysis,and the absence of separate iron-containing crystalline phases was supported by X-ray diffraction.The effective aliovalent doping and modulation of the optical properties were investigated using UV-Vis,Raman,and photoluminescence spectroscopies.2.5 mol%iron was found to be an optimal content to achieve a significant decrease in the band gap,enhance the concentration of oxygen vacancy defects,and increase the charge carrier lifetime.The photocatalytic activity of Fe-doped CeO_(2)prepared at different Fe contents with RM preparation was studied and compared with undoped CeO_(2).The optimal iron load was identified to be2.5 mol%,achieving the highest hydrogen production(7566μmol L-1after 240 min under visible light).Moreover,for comparison,the conventional precipitation(P)method was adopted to prepare iron containing CeO_(2)at the optimal content(2.5 mol%Fe).The Fe-doped CeO_(2)catalyst prepared by RM showed a significantly higher hydrogen production than that obtained with the sample prepared by the P method.The optimal Fe-doped CeO_(2),prepared by the RM method,was stable for six reuse cycles.Moreover,the role of water in the mechanism of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution under visible light was studied through the test in the presence of D2O.The obtained results evidenced that hydrogen was produced from the reduction of H^(+)by the electrons promoted in the conduction band,while methanol was preferentially oxidized by the photogenerated positive holes.

文摘Transportation systems are experiencing a significant transformation due to the integration of advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning. In the context of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), the development of efficient and reliable traffic light detection mechanisms is crucial for enhancing road safety and traffic management. This paper presents an optimized convolutional neural network (CNN) framework designed to detect traffic lights in real-time within complex urban environments. Leveraging multi-scale pyramid feature maps, the proposed model addresses key challenges such as the detection of small, occluded, and low-resolution traffic lights amidst complex backgrounds. The integration of dilated convolutions, Region of Interest (ROI) alignment, and Soft Non-Maximum Suppression (Soft-NMS) further improves detection accuracy and reduces false positives. By optimizing computational efficiency and parameter complexity, the framework is designed to operate seamlessly on embedded systems, ensuring robust performance in real-world applications.

文摘Fe-based catalysts are widely used for CO_(2)hydrogenation to light olefins(C_(2–4)=);however,precise regulation of active phases and the balance between intermediate reactions remain significant challenges.Herein,we find that the addition of moderate amounts of Ti forms a strong interaction with Fe compositions,modulating the Fe_(3)O_(4)and Fe_(5)C_(2)contents.Enhanced interaction leads to an increased Fe_(5)C_(2)/Fe_(3)O_(4)ratio,which in turn enhances the adsorption of reactants and intermediates,promoting CO hydrogenation to unsaturated alkyl groups and facilitating C–C coupling.Furthermore,the strong Fe-Ti interaction induces the preferential growth of Fe_(5)C_(2)into prismatic structures that expose the(020),(–112),and(311)facets,forming compact active interfacial sites with Fe_(3)O_(4)nanoparticles.These facet and interfacial effects significantly promote the synergistic coupling of the reverse water gas shift and Fischer-Tropsch reactions.The optimized 3K/FeTi catalyst with the highest Fe_(5)C_(2)/Fe_(3)O_(4)ratio of 3.6 achieves a 52.2%CO_(2)conversion rate,with 44.5%selectivity for C2–4=and 9.5%for CO,and the highest space-time yield of 412.0 mg gcat^(–1)h^(–1)for C_(2–4)=.
