Up to November 2022, 267 pulsars have been discovered in 36 globular clusters (GCs). In this paper, we present our studies on the distribution of GC pulsar parameters and the detection efficiency. The power law relation between the average of dispersion measure ($\overline{\rm DM}$) and dispersion measure difference ($\Delta {\rm DM}$) of known pulsars in GCs is $\lg\Delta {\rm DM} \propto 1.52 \lg \overline{\rm DM}$. The sensitivity could be the key to find more pulsars. As a result, several years after the construction of a radio telescope, the GC pulsar number will be increased accordingly. We suggest that currently GCs in the southern hemisphere could have higher possibilities to find new pulsars., Comment: 9 pages,5 figures, accepted by RAA, comments are always welcomed!

Computer vision builds a connection between image processing and industrials, bringing modern perception to the automated industrials. At the same time, defect detection based on deep learning has played an important role in automated detection. In this paper, an improved convolutional neural network CU-Net for fabric defect detection is proposed. In this method, the classical U-Net network was improved. On the basis of network size compression, attention mechanism is introduced and a new compound loss function is used for training. Using the public AITEX defect fabric data set as the test sample, the experimental result shows that the accuracy and recall of the proposed method are 98.3% and 92.7%, respectively. Compared with the highest scores of other detection methods, they are improved by 4.8% and 2.3%, which improves the detection accuracy of fabric defect significantly.

To evaluate the effect of a comprehensive control model for soil-transmitted nematodiasis.Danling County was selected as a demonstration county carrying out the comprehensive prevention model centering on health education, nematode deworming, and drinking water and lavatories changing. On the other side, Hejiang was selected as a control. The effects were evaluated by comparing some indicators such as the infection rates of soil-transmitted nematodiasis and so on.The infection rates of soil-transmitted nematodiasis declined obviously from 2006 to 2009 in the demonstration county. The infection rates of Ascaris lumbricoides, hookworms, Trichiuris trichiura decreased by 91.14%, 81.65% and 65.77%. In the control county, those rates did not have downward tendency. In 2006, those rates in the demonstration county were higher than those in the control, but in 2009 those rates in the demonstration county were lower than those in the control.Through the three-year comprehensive prevention, the infection rates of soil-transmitted nematodiasis declined obviously in the demonstration county. The epidemic situation of soil-transmitted nematodiasis could be controlled effectively by the comprehensive prevention model.

In order to improve the quality and efficiency of ground-to-air data communication, the improved two dimension markov model is put forward. Then the best Rth improved arithmetic, the best Fth improved arithmetic and the mixed best threshold arithmetic which introduces two mechanism are discussed, and the method is given. The new method provides theory idea for dispeling network performance paremeter in ground-to-air data link.

SVM is one of the most commonly used methods in the field of text classification. But, SVM is, in essence, a kind of binary classifier. When the traditional SVM is applied in text classification, many SVM must be trained, So the text classification accuracy is not ideal. In this paper, a new kind hypersphere support vector machine is applied in text classification, just require training a SVM. The SVM obtain a super ball center through training samples of each type text that in high-dimensional feature space, and then calculate the distance between the text sample to be tested and the center of each class, according to the minimum distance determine which class that the test text belongs to. The experimental results show that: with the measurement of Fl-measure the accuracy of the text classification has been greatly improved.

In order to solve the disadvantage of traditional "special line" networking, and ameliorate limitation of traditional IP network, frame relay and the ATM network. A VPN networking project which based on MPLS is put forward. Then analyze the customer data transmitting process of MPLS VPN in detail. Some simulation scenes are introduced by OPNET, get the results that MPLS VPN has lower delay and packet losing. And get a useful conclusion that MPLS VPN has vast application foreground in company, business enterprise which crosses over different location and military communication networking.

The linear compression ratio of high-purity YAG and the red shift of the R1 line for YAG : Cr were measured under pressure up to 24 GPa. The experimental results show that the Murnaghan equation is satisfactory for describing the state of YAG. The isothermal bulk modulus B0 and its pressure derivative B0’ were determined from the equation, which are B0 = 191. 7GPa and B0’ = 6.52. The quantitative relationship between the linear compression ratio and the red shift of the R1 line was also obtained.

Statistical characteristic of daily temperature series (1954—2004) of Xiamen station is analyzed by using Gaussian and skew distribution functions, and then the future probable trend of record temperature events (RBTE) is also simulated by using Monte-Carlo(MC) methods based on the Gaussian and skew distribution functions, respectively. Results show that the statistical property of nearly 50a daily observation temperature data in June of Xiamen station is more consistent with that obtained from the skew function. However, the theoretical study shows that the skew function and Gaussian function have the same limit of convergence, i.e. the Gumbel distribution function. The results also show that the MC simulation based on the skew distribution with global warming background can reveal the future probable extreme events well, and the Xiamen's daily temperature distribution of June in the next 10 a is predicted. The global warming background can lead the occurrence probabilities of high-temperature record-breaking event and the average daily temperature to increase. In addition, based on the observed date in China, the spatial temperature distribution of the occurrence with the max probability over China in coming 10 years is also presented.
