“…It was found that the higher the BMI, the greater the probability of patients belonging to the moderate sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.114, P = 0.002) and the severe sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.258, P < 0.001),the longer the duration of anesthesia the greater the likelihood of patients belonging to the severe sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.004,P = 0.011), the greater the pain the greater the probability of patients belonging to the moderate sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.590,P < 0.001) and severe sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.785,P < 0.001), and the higher the anxiety level the greater the probability that patients were in the moderate sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.135,P = 0.007) and severe sleep disturbance group (OR = 1.261,P < 0.001).…”

Drought before fire increases tree mortality after fire by C. Alina Cansler, Micah C. Wright, Phillip J. vanMantgem, Timothy M. Shearman, J. Morgan Varner, Sharon M. Hood

“…Although crown injury was the primary determinant of tree mortality after fire, drought increased likelihood of death, with a 2‐SD increase in CWD (+115.7) resulting in a 78% increase in the probability of mortality. We assessed the crown scorch level expected to result in >50% probability of mortality under different CWD scenarios: observed CWD, CWD of +2, and +4°C warming scenarios. …”

Unified ultraviolet communication and sensing:modeling and system optimization by Chen GONG, Yuchen PAN, Zhengyuan XU

“…Currently, there exist few communication works which combine with sensing.It is necessary to build up a unified communication and sensing signal model and system joint design optimization framework.Based on this, a unified ultraviolet communication and sensing framework was proposed, consisting of a transmitter, a sensing detector and a communication receiver.The transmitter sent modulated signals to the communication receiver for information transmission.Due to the non-line of sight scattering effect, certain components of the transmitted signals reached the unknown target which further reflected to the sensing detector for target detection.Two performance metrics for communication and sensing were considered, including the mutual information between the transmitted symbol and the signal at the communication receiver, and the miss detection probability for the target detector.The relationship between the two metrics and the transmission parameters was further analyzed, including the transmission power for the high-level signal, the transmission power for the low-level signal, and the prior probabilities.The results demonstrate a tradeoff between the communication performance metric and sensing performance metric.It is also shown that the power for the high-level signal should be set to be the peak power, and the power for the low-level signal and the prior probabilities should be optimized, to minimize the miss detection probability given a lower bound on the mutual information.…”

Encounter Risk Analysis of Rainstorm and Tide Base on Different Sampling Method by WANG Shangwei, LIU Zengmei

“…Waterlogging disaster in tide-affected area usually occurs under the influence of rainstorm and tide level.In the process of risk analysis of rainstorm and tide level,different sample methods will affect the risk probability results.Taking Zhong-Zhu union catchment as an example,based on annual maximum series sampling method and peak over threshold sampling method combined with Copula function,the risk analysis results indicate that:①Sample data obtained based on peak over threshold sampling method has a larger sample size,which contains more rainstorm events than sample data obtained based on annual maximum series sampling method,and these rainstorm events tend to encounter high tide;②On the basis of containing more effective sample information,the frequency analysis results obtained by peak over threshold sampling method are more accurate and with much more security from the perspective of waterlogged drainage;③The joint distribution of rainstorm and tide based on peak over threshold sampling method showed a better fitting degree,and the probability of encountering unexpected events is larger as a result of annual maximal series sampling method omitted some effective sample information.…”

Damage toughness assessment method of power backbone communication network based on power big data by Xue HAN

“…The damage toughness assessment method of power backbone communication network based on power big data was studied, and the damage toughness assessment results were used to formulate protection strategies and improve the network survivability.The power backbone communication network and the attacker were set as the two sides of the game, and the Nash equilibrium strategy of both sides was determined by the minimax method.The damage probability of nodes was obtained by the Nash equilibrium strategy, and the node damage probability was transformed into the network damage form.According to the network damage pattern, the repair conditions contained in the power big data were obtained by cloud computing technology.According to the importance of each node, the repair resources and repair budget were allocated to the nodes in order.The performance time-history response curve of the power backbone communication network was constructed, and the dynamic evaluation results of the network damage toughness were output.The experimental results show that all operations using cloud computing technology to process massive power big data can not exceed 330 ms.When the repair budget and repair resources are the highest, the damage toughness of the power backbone communication network can reach 0.925 at most, indicating that this method can effectively evaluate the damage toughness of the power backbone communication network.…”
