DMPNet: dual-path and multi-scale pansharpening network by Gurpreet Kaur, Manisha Malhotra, Dilbag Singh, Dilbag Singh, Sunita Singhal

“…The MSAAF module adaptively combines spatial and spectral data across different scales, employing a self-calibrated attention (SCA) mechanism for dynamic weighting of local and global contexts and a spectral alignment network (SAN) to ensure spectral consistency. Finally, to achieve optimal spatial and spectral reconstruction, the IRM decomposes the fused features into low- and high-frequency components using discrete wavelet transform (DWT).ResultsThe proposed DMPNet outperforms competitive models in terms of ERGAS, SCC (WR), SCC (NR), PSNR, Q, QNR, and JQM by approximately 1.24%, 1.18%, 1.37%, 1.42%, 1.26%, 1.31%, and 1.23%, respectively.DiscussionExtensive experimental results and evaluations reveal that the DMPNet is more efficient and robust than competing pansharpening models.…”

Acoustic Emission and Failure Modes for Coal-Rock Structure under Different Loading Rates by Ning Wang, Yingqian Xu, Dengyuan Zhu, Nan Wang, Benfu Yu

“…The following conclusions are drawn: (1) when loading rate was relatively low, plastic deformation of coal mass fully developed, while surface cracks of coal mass was not apparent and slip along the transfixion crack occurred in the postpeak stage; (2) with the increase in loading rate, surface tensile cracks developed into splitting cracks at the end of the prepeak stage and throughout the postpeak stage, and brittle failure finally happened due to the release of nonlinear step-shaped energy or one-time strain energy release of upper rock mass, resulting in the damage of internal bearing structure and weakening of bearing capacity; (3) the deformation and failure process of combined samples showed obvious phases, and corresponding AE energy release rate could be divided into periodic linear growth and transient growth, while the cumulative energy of AE events has multiple peak points and transient growth with the increase of loading rate; (4) it was demonstrated that two distinct frequency bands existed in AE events, which were about 50 kHz and 150 kHz, and the distribution of AE events near 50 kHz was larger and stronger, representing the main frequency range of cracks in coal mass. …”
