Which factor dominates the industry evolution? A synergy analysis based on China's ICT industry

Industry evolution caused by various reasons, among which technology progress driving industry development has been approved, but with the new trend of industry convergence, inter-industry convergence also plays an increasing important role. This paper plans to probe the industry synergetic evolution mechanism based on industry convergence and technology progress. Firstly, we use self-organization method and Haken Model to establish synergetic evolution equations, select technology progress and industry convergence as the key variables of industry evolution system; then use patent licensing data of china's listed ICT companies to measure industry convergence rate and apply DEA Malmquist index method to calculate technology progress level; furthermore apply simultaneous equation estimation method to investigate the synergetic industry evolution process. From 2002 to 2012, China's ICT industry develops rapidly; it has the most obvious convergence and powerful technology progress compared with other industries. We choose china's listed ICT industry to make empirical analysis. Our main findings are: a) technology progress is the order parameter which dominates industry system evolution. Moreover, industry convergence is the control parameter which is influenced by technology progress; b) Development of technology progress is the core factor for causing evolution of industry system, and industry convergence is the outcome of technology progress; c) Especially, it is important that the dominated role of technology progress will be sustained, even though in the environment of convergence, companies also need focus on self-innovation, rather than only adapt to the new industry evolution trend.

Radiation fields on Schwarzschild spacetime

In this paper we define the radiation field for the wave equation on the Schwarzschild black hole spacetime. In this context it has two components: the rescaled restriction of the time derivative of a solution to null infinity and to the event horizon. In the process, we establish some regularity properties of solutions of the wave equation on the spacetime. In particular, we prove that the regularity of the solution across the event horizon and across null infinity is determined by the regularity and decay rate of the initial data at the event horizon and at infinity. We also show that the radiation field is unitary with respect to the conserved energy and prove support theorems for each piece of the radiation field.

Secure Quantum Private Comparison of Equality Based on Asymmetric W State

Recently, Liu et al. [Opt. Commun. 284, 3160, 2011] proposed a protocol for quantum private comparison of equality (QPCE) based on sym- metric W state. However, Li et al. [Eur. Phys. J. D. 66, 110, 2012] pointed out that there is a flaw of information leak, and they proposed a new protocol based on EPR pairs. While examining these two protocols, we find that there exists a same flaw: the third party (TP) can know the comparison result. In this paper, through introducing and constructing a special class of asymmet- ric W state, a secure QPCE protocol based on this asymmetric W state is presented. Analysis shows the present protocol can not only effectively avoid the information leak found by Li et al, but also ensure TP would not get any information about the comparison result.

Realizing Chemical Codoping in Oxide Semiconductors

We demonstrate experimentally a chemical codoping approach that would simultaneously narrow the band gap and control the band edge positions of oxide semiconductors. Using TiO2 as an example, we show that a sequential doping scheme with nitrogen (N) leading the way, followed by phosphorous (P), is crucial for the incorporation of both N and P into the anion sites. Various characterization techniques confirm the formation of the N-P bonds, and as a consequence of the chemical codoping, the band gap of the TiO2 is reduced from 3.0 eV to 1.8 eV. The realization of chemical codoping could be an important step forward in improving the general performance of electronic and optoelectronic materials and devices.

Beyond Physical Connections: Tree Models in Human Pose Estimation

Simple tree models for articulated objects prevails in the last decade. However, it is also believed that these simple tree models are not capable of capturing large variations in many scenarios, such as human pose estimation. This paper attempts to address three questions: 1) are simple tree models sufficient? more specifically, 2) how to use tree models effectively in human pose estimation? and 3) how shall we use combined parts together with single parts efficiently? Assuming we have a set of single parts and combined parts, and the goal is to estimate a joint distribution of their locations. We surprisingly find that no latent variables are introduced in the Leeds Sport Dataset (LSP) during learning latent trees for deformable model, which aims at approximating the joint distributions of body part locations using minimal tree structure. This suggests one can straightforwardly use a mixed representation of single and combined parts to approximate their joint distribution in a simple tree model. As such, one only needs to build Visual Categories of the combined parts, and then perform inference on the learned latent tree. Our method outperformed the state of the art on the LSP, both in the scenarios when the training images are from the same dataset and from the PARSE dataset. Experiments on animal images from the VOC challenge further support our findings.

Learning Visual Symbols for Parsing Human Poses in Images

Parsing human poses in images is fundamental in extracting critical visual information for artificial intelligent agents. Our goal is to learn self-contained body part representations from images, which we call visual symbols, and their symbol-wise geometric contexts in this parsing process. Each symbol is individually learned by categorizing visual features leveraged by geometric information. In the categorization, we use Latent Support Vector Machine followed by an efficient cross validation procedure to learn visual symbols. Then, these symbols naturally define geometric contexts of body parts in a fine granularity. When the structure of the compositional parts is a tree, we derive an efficient approach to estimating human poses in images. Experiments on two large datasets suggest our approach outperforms state of the art methods.

Study on the Fermi level of microstructured Silicon with impurities introduced by chalcogenides and their affect on solar cell efficiency

Microstructured Silicon, which is obtained by irradiating the surface of a Silicon wafer with femtosecond laser pulses under certain circumstances, has unusual optical properties such as the strong absorption of light with wavelength from 0.25μm to 17μm. So it holds great promise in the intermediate band solar cell (IBSC). Some articles have discussed the electronic structure associating with simple substitutional impurities in Silicon introduced by chalcogenides. And on this basis, after high temperature annealing treatment, we establish the mode of impurity levels of microstructured Silicon introduced by sulfur and oxygen. Using generalized statistics of multi-level,we analyze the probability of electronic in all local energy levels and the relationship among Fermi level, temperature and the density of impurities. Then the theoretical conversion efficiency of the corresponding IBSC is discussed with the Detailed Balance Theory. And the issue of making high efficiency solar cells based on femtosecond laser microstructured Silicon is discussed in detail.

Isobaric yield ratios in heavy-ion reactions, and symmetry energy of neutron-rich nuclei at intermediate energies

The isobaric yield ratios of the fragments produced in the neutron-rich 48Ca and 64Ni projectile fragmentation are analyzed in the framework of a modified Fisher model. The correlations between the isobaric yield ratios (R) and the energy coefficients in the Weiszäcker-Beth semiclassical mass formula (the symmetry-energy term asym, the Coulomb-energy term ac, and the pairing-energy term ap) and the difference between the chemical potentials of the neutron and proton (μn-μp) are investigated. Simple correlations between (μn-μp)/T, ac/T, asym/T, and ap/T (where T is the temperature), and lnR are obtained. It is suggested that (μn-μp)/T, ac/T, asym/T, and ap/T of neutron-rich nuclei can be extracted using isobaric yield ratios for heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies.

Dirichlet-to-Neumann Map for Poincaré-Einstein Metrics in Even Dimensions

We study the linearization of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for Poincaré-Einstein metrics in even dimensions on an arbitrary compact manifold with boundary. By fixing a suitable gauge, we make the linearized Einstein equation elliptic. In this gauge the linearization of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map appears as the scattering matrix for an elliptic operator of 0-type, modified by some differential operators. We study the scattering matrix by using the 0-calculus and generalize a result of Graham for the case of the standard hyperbolic metric on a ball.

On the distributed evaluation of recursive queries over graphs

Logical formalisms such as first-order logic (FO) and fixpoint logic (FP) are well suited to express in a declarative manner fundamental graph functionalities required in distributed systems. We show that these logics constitute good abstractions for programming distributed systems as a whole, since they can be evaluated in a fully distributed manner with reasonable complexity upper-bounds. We first prove that FO and FP can be evaluated with a polynomial number of messages of logarithmic size. We then show that the (global) logical formulas can be translated into rule programs describing the local behavior of the nodes of the distributed system, which compute equivalent results. Finally, we introduce local fragments of these logics, which preserve as much as possible the locality of their distributed computation, while offering a rich expressive power for networking functionalities. We prove that they admit tighter upper-bounds with bounded number of messages of bounded size. Finally, we show that the semantics and the complexity of the local fragments are preserved over locally consistent networks as well as anonymous networks, thus showing the robustness of the proposed local logical formalisms.

Structure of Peer-to-Peer Social Networks

This paper presents a statistical analysis of the structure of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) social networks that captures social associations of distributed peers in resource sharing. Peer social networks appear to be mainly composed of pure resource providers that guarantee high resource availability and reliability of P2P systems. The major peers that both provide and request resources are only a small fraction. The connectivity between peers, including undirected, directed (out and in) and weighted connections, is scale-free and the social networks of all peers and major peers are small world networks. The analysis also confirms that peer social networks show in general disassortative correlations, except that active providers are connected between each other and by active requesters. The study presented in this paper gives a better understanding of peer relationships in resource sharing, which may help a better design of future P2P networks and open the path to the study of transport processes on top of real P2P topologies.

The Chiral Quark Condensate and the Bag Constant with Finite Chemical Potential

A method for obtaining the low chemical potential dependence of the dressed quark propagator from an effective quark-quark interaction model is developed. From this the chemical potential dependence of the chiral quark condensate and bag constant are evaluated. It is found that the chiral order parameter decreases with the increasing chemical potential $μ$, which is qualitatively different from the results given by some authors in the literature. The reason for this discrepancy is discussed.
