手绘地图开域空间方向关系检索法

为满足智能化检索地理信息的需求,提出一种基于开域空间方向关系的手绘地图检索方法。首先设计了一种适用于手绘地图检索的开域空间方向关系描述模型。该模型通过开域既能自适应精确描述,又可通过松弛化策略模糊描述手绘对象间方向关系。提出基于开域空间方向关系的手绘地图检索流程,建立了R树空间索引和方向关系相似度计算模型,给出了输出结果的评价方法。采用实际数据的试验结果表明,该方法可在较大范围地图场景中有效检索到排名靠前的结果。     

点状地名信息的加权泰森多边形检索法

鉴于地名库中多数地名仅以中心点坐标形式记录其空间位置信息,缺乏其空间范围的具体描述,造成地名检索中的片面性和局限性,本文在深入分析地名及其空间属性、空间关系的基础上,考虑同类型地名的不同性质在检索中的重要作用,利用泰森多边形在地名边界近似中的优势,提出了针对点状地名信息的加权泰森多边形检索法,依据同类型地名的面积属性作为权重指标构建泰森多边形,以近似表达地名的空间范围,进而描述地名间的各类空间关系;并从拓扑关系、方位关系与距离关系3个方面给出了具体公式以计算地名间的空间相似性;最后以行政区划边界近似与检索为例验证该方法。试验结果表明,该方法可较好地近似表达地名空间范围及空间关系,增强了检索词与地理信息资源在空间位置上的相似性度量,检索结果优于传统方法。     

检索应用中地理信息资源相似度计算方法研究

在地理信息资源检索应用中,资源属性间相似关系的计算还不够深入,地理信息资源的精准推荐及检索可视化应用尚难以实现。针对该问题,统一采用"相似度"对资源属性间的相似关系进行表达。资源的属性类型大部分为文本,其中具有语义差异,文中提出复合文本的相似度算法对文本类型属性进行匹配,并给出数值类型属性的"相似度"映射方案。在此基础上,实现资源时间、空间属性的相似度计算。基于所提出的相似度算法进行地理信息资源检索实验,实现地理信息资源属性间相似关系的量化,促进信息可视化在地理信息资源检索中的应用。     

不同坐标系综合变换法

不同坐标系统的相似变换法一般不足以将两坐标系统间的差异纳入坐标转换模型，因而低精度的坐标框架到高精度的坐标转换往往不能保证统一后的坐标框架的高精度。本文试图将相似变换与回归逼近相结合，以便顾及低精度大地网中的局部误差积累和变形，从而提高统一后的坐标框架的精度。     

基于多致灾因子相似的热带气旋检索方法研究:以风暴潮-海浪灾害预评估为例

热带气旋引起的风暴潮-海浪灾害成灾频率高、致灾强度大,对我国沿海地区造成的人员和经济损失惨重。预评估阶段需要在灾前对研究区可能造成的损失等进行快速的综合判定。从历史热带气旋中检索出与目标热带气旋位置及各种致灾因子强度相似的热带气旋是快速、准确地预评估风暴潮-海浪灾害的重要方法。面向风暴潮-海浪灾害预评估,提出了一种基于多致灾因子的相似热带气旋检索方法。用于相似检索的致灾因子数据包括:从中国气象局西北太平洋热带气旋最佳路径数据集中提取并经处理得到的1949~2013年影响湛江市的112场热带气旋的路径中心点位置、中心气压、最大风速、最大风速半径及移动速度数据,112场热带气旋的模拟风场、风暴潮及海浪数据。首先,利用相似离度方法对热带气旋进行路径相似性检索;其次,利用最优相似系数方法计算中心气压、最大风速半径、最大风速、移动速度、风场、风暴潮及海浪强度指标的相似系数进行一次检索;然后,根据风场、风暴潮及海浪模拟数据的获取情况,分别基于路径-强度及风场-风暴潮-海浪综合相似性指标进行二次检索;最终给出历史热带气旋的综合相似排序。以2013年尤特热带气旋为例,利用上述方法检索了与其最为相似的5场历史热带气旋。该方法综合考虑了热带气旋路径及多种致灾因子的相似,兼顾了检索的速度及质量,是进行快速、准确的风暴潮-海浪灾害预评估的重要基础。     

基于稀疏浮动车数据的城市路网交通流速度估计

浮动车数据在时空维度呈现较强的稀疏性,是其应用于城市路网交通流估计所面临的主要难题之一。本文通过分析路网交通流速度的时空特征,构建了一种基于朴素贝叶斯法的估计模型,实现对路网中未被样本覆盖路段交通流速度的估计。时间特征主要考虑目标路段相邻时段的交通流速度,空间特征根据路段间交通流相似关系进行分析,突破了传统基于欧氏空间或拓扑关系的度量方式。结果显示,模型能有效地估计出样本缺失路段的交通流速度,且在精度方面相对传统基于拓扑关系的算法优势显著,较好地解决了数据时空稀疏性问题,对基于浮动车数据的交通应用具有较强的实践意义。     

The multivariate (co)variogram as a spatial weighting function in classification methods

The multivariate variogram and the multivariate covariogram are used as spatial weighting functions for forming spatially homogeneous groups automatically. The groups are created after either deflating similarities between distant samples with the multivariate covariogram or by inflating dissimilarities between distant samples with the multivariate variogram. These approaches can be seen as generalization of the Oliver and Webster proposal. Two data sets show the efficiency of the two weighting functions when compared to the classical approach which does not take spatial information into account. In one case study, the weighting of similarities by the multivariate covariogram showed more interpretable results than the weighting of dissimilarities by the multivariate variogram.     

A top–down soil moisture and sap flux sampling design of a rain–snow transition mountain watershed

This paper presents a top–down approach for soil moisture and sap flux sampling design with the goal of understanding ecohydrologic response to interannual climate variation in the rain–snow transition watersheds. The design is based on a priori estimates of soil moisture and transpiration patterns using a physical distributed model, Regional Hydro‐Ecologic Simulation System (RHESSys). RHESSys was initially calibrated with existing snow depth and streamflow data. Calibrated model estimates of seasonal trajectories of snowmelt, root‐zone soil moisture storage, and transpiration were used to develop five hydrologic similarity indicators and map these at (30 m) patch scale across the study watershed. The partitioning around medoids‐clustering algorithm was then used to define six distinctive spatially explicit clusters based on the five hydrologic similarity indictors. A representative site within each cluster was identified for sampling. For each site, soil moisture sensors were installed at the 30‐ and 90‐cm depths and at the five soil pits and a sap flux sensor at the averaged‐size white fir tree for each site. The model‐based cluster analysis suggests that the elevation gradient and topographically driven flow drainage patterns are the dominant drivers of spatial patterns of soil moisture and transpiration. The comparison of model‐based calculated hydrological similarity indicators with measured‐data‐based values shows that spatial patterns of field‐sampled soil moisture data typically fell within uncertainty bounds of model‐based estimates for each cluster. There were however several notable exceptions. The model failed to capture the soil moisture and sap flux dynamics in a riparian zone site and in a site where lateral subsurface flow may not follow surface topography. Results highlight the utility of using a hypothesis driven sampling strategy, based on a physically based model, for efficiently providing new information that can drive both future measurements and strategic refinements to model inputs, parameters, or structure that might reduce these errors. Future research will focus on strategies for using of finer scale representations of microclimate, topography, vegetation, and soil properties to improve models.     

Scaling and self‐similarity in one‐dimensional unsteady open channel flow

The conditions under which the Saint Venant equations system for unsteady open channel flow, as an initial–boundary value problem, becomes self‐similar are investigated by utilizing one‐parameter Lie group of point scaling transformations. One of the advantages of this methodology is that the self‐similarity conditions due to the initial and boundary conditions can also be investigated thoroughly in addition to the conditions due to the governing equation. The obtained self‐similarity conditions are compared with the scaling relationships that are derived through the Froude similitude. It is shown that the initial–boundary value problem of a one‐dimensional unsteady open channel flow process in a prototype domain can be self‐similar with that of several different scaled domains. However, the values of all the flow variables (at specified time and space) under different scaled domains can be upscaled to the same values in the prototype domain (at the corresponding time and space), as shown in this study. Distortion in scales of different space dimensions has been implemented extensively in physical hydraulic modelling, mainly because of cost, space and time limitations. Unlike the traditional approach, the distinction is made between the longitudinal–horizontal and transverse–horizontal length scales in this study. The scaled domain obtained by the proposed approach, when scaling ratios of channel width and water depth are equal, is particularly important for the similarity of flow characteristics in a cross‐section because the width‐to‐depth ratio and the inclination angles of the banks are conserved in a cross‐section. It is also shown that the scaling ratio of the roughness coefficient under distorted channel conditions depends on that of hydraulic radius and longitudinal length. The proposed scaling relations obtained by the Lie group scaling approach may provide additional spatial, temporal and economical flexibility in setting up physical hydraulic models.

基于相似性原理超固结土不排水扩张半解析解

在实际工程中,土体往往因卸载、再加载等复杂应力路径而处于超固结状态,而现有的圆孔扩张问题的计算模型往往不能反映超固结土中剪胀、软化等一些特殊性质。为了解决这一问题,基于相似性原理和统一硬化（UH）模型,结合相关联的流动法则和大变形理论,采用相似求解技术求解了超固结土不排水扩张问题的半解析解答。通过理想化算例分析了圆孔扩张挤土产生的应力和孔压响应,并通过分析不同超固结比OCR的土体应力路径的变化规律,讨论了UH模型的适用性。结果表明：对于轻超固结土,空腔周围土体孔压在塑性区沿径向单调递减,随着OCR增大,塑性区内孔压分布呈现出“S”形的趋势,孔壁附近的孔压逐渐减小,孔壁周围甚至出现负孔压。随着OCR增大,压力?扩张曲线收敛变慢。在扩孔过程中正常固结土一直处于剪缩硬化阶段。而对于超固结土,土体则经历了临界状态→剪胀硬化阶段→临界（特征）状态→剪缩硬化阶段。该研究成果不仅丰富了相似求解技术的应用,而且为超固结土中桩基承载力、隧道围岩变形预测和原位测试参数等岩土工程问题的计算提供了理论依据。
