A novel coal-rock recognition method in coal mining face based on fusing laser point cloud and images by Yang Liu, Lei Si, Zhongbin Wang, Miao Chen, Xin Li, Dong Wei, Jinheng Gu

“…Subsequently, the 2D target candidate box is calculated through the improved Mask R-CNN, and the frustum point cloud in the 2D target candidate box is extracted to reduce the calculation scale and spatial search range. Then, the self-attention PointNet is constructed to segment the fused point cloud within the frustum range, and the bounding box regression network is used to predict the bounding box parameters. …”

Effect of Solar Irradiation Inter-Annual Variability on PV and CSP Power Plants Production Capacity: Portugal Case-Study by Ailton M. Tavares, Ricardo Conceição, Francisco M. Lopes, Hugo G. Silva

“…The latter is attributed to the long-term upward trend of 0.0231 °C/year in annual average ambient temperature, which contributes to PV and CSP efficiency reduction. Spatial analysis of inter-annual relative variability for GHI and DNI shows a reduction in variability from the north to the south of the country, as well as for the respective power plant productions. …”
