Landslide displacement prediction can enhance the efficacy of landslide monitoring system, and periodic is particularly challenging. In previous studies, static regression models (e.g., support vector machine (SVM)) were mostly used for predicting displacement. These may have bad performances, when dynamic features triggers are incorporated. This paper proposes a method in manner, based on gated recurrent unit (GRU) neural network complete ensemble empirical decomposition with adaptive noise...

What the role of each phase medium plays and how their interactions do work should be essential problems to understand dynamic behaviours soils. In order disclose between solid, water, air phases soils, we applied loess samples analyse controlling effects residual deformation on pore pressure based three kinds laboratory tests. We obtained similarity difference mechanical behaviors soil under different water contents loading. Both process cause air/water pressures are independent initial...

A method capable of automatically reconstructing 3D building models with semantic information from the unstructured point cloud indoor scenes is presented in this paper. This has three main steps: segmentation using a new hybrid algorithm, room layout reconstruction, and wall-surface object reconstruction by an enriched approach. Unlike existing methods, aims to detect, cluster, model complex structures without having prior scanner or trajectory information. In addition, enables accurate...

While i-vector/PLDA framework has achieved great success, its performance still degrades dramatically under noisy conditions. To compensate for the variability of i-vectors caused by different levels background noise, this paper proposes an SNR-invariant PLDA robust speaker verification. First, nonparametric feature analysis (NFA) is employed to suppress intra-speaker variation and emphasize discriminative information inherited in boundaries between speakers i-vector space. Then,...

Small but complicated labyrinth channel emitters are easily clogged. In this study, computational fluid dynamics–discrete element method coupling approach was employed to investigate the mechanism of emitter clogging caused by particles in size 65, 100, and 150 µm. Computational dynamics used Navier–Stokes equation analyze flow characteristics continuous phase. Discrete Newton’s laws motion measure single particle group distribution disperse Particle tracking velocimetry also utilized follow...

Specifically, deep neural network (DNN) trained produce posterior probabilities SNR levels channel given i-vectors as...

Landslide identification is an increasingly important research topic in remote sensing and the study of natural hazards. It essential for hazard prevention, mitigation, vulnerability assessments. Despite great efforts over past few years, its accuracy efficiency can be further improved. Thus, this combines two most popular approaches: susceptibility analysis change detection thresholding, to derive a landslide method employing novel criteria. Through quantitative evaluation proposed masked...

In speaker recognition, the mismatch between enrollment and test utterances due to noise with different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) is a great challenge. Based on observation that noise-level variability causes i-vectors form heterogeneous clusters, this paper proposes using an SNR-aware deep neural network (DNN) guide training of PLDA mixture models. Specifically, given i-vector, SNR posterior probabilities produced by DNN are used as posteriors indicator variables model. As result,...

For the silo flow of two materials with contrasting strengths, an automatic separation without mixing is observed during drawing. In present paper, writers observe that a columniform funnel will appear in single opening while uniform occur for double opening. The classical and popular Janssen equation hence less suitable than development arch action arising from contact force investigated through distinct element analysis different types silo. It also found there are significant differences...

To deal with the mismatch between enrollment and test utterances caused by noise different signal-to-noise ratios (SNR), we have recently proposed an SNR-invariant PLDA model for robust speaker verification. In model, SNR-specific information were separated from speaker-specific through marginalizing out SNR factors during scoring process. However, this modeling approach assumes that variabilities can be captured a single subspace regardless of level utterances. We will show in paper...

Although governing either iterative finite difference method or element, there however limitations to these methods in some special cases will discussed present paper. The solutions all viewed stationary value functional. Using an approximate solution...
