Variations in Variation and Selection: The Ubiquity of the Variation-and-Selective-Retention Ratchet in Emergent Organizational Complexity, Part II: Quantum Field Theory

If the general arguments concerning theinvolvement of variation and selection inexplanations of ``fit'' are valid, then variationand selection explanations should beappropriate, or at least potentiallyappropriate, outside the paradigm historisticdomains of biology and knowledge. In thisdiscussion, I wish to indicate some potentialroles for variation and selection infoundational physics – specifically inquantum field theory. I will not be attemptingany full coherent ontology for quantum fieldtheory – none currently exists, and none islikely for at least the short term future. Instead, I wish to engage in some partiallyspeculative interpretations of some interestingresults in this area with the aim ofdemonstrating that variation and selectionnotions might play a role even here. Ifvariation and selection can survive in even asinhospitable and non-paradigmatic a terrain asfoundational physics, then it can surviveanywhere.

Hybrid SVM／HMM Method for Face Recognition

A face recognition system based on Support Vector Machine(SVM) and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) has been proposed. The powerful discriminative ability of SVM is combined with the temporal modeling ability of HMM. The output of SVM is moderated to be probability output, which replaces the Mixture of Gauss (MOG) in HMM. Wavelet transformation is used to extract observation vector, which reduces the data dimension and improves the robustness.The hybrid system is compared with pure HMM face recognition method based on ORL face database and Yale face database. Experiments results show that the hybrid method has better performance.     

Environmental Friendly Route and Wool Shrink Proofing

The shrink proofing on wool with treatment of protease named Argaenzyme STL was studied. The various pretreating auxiliaries, different parameters for protease treating process and the effect of stabilizer were discussed in detail. The varieties of some properties before and after protease treatment were also investigated.

通道不一致性、互耦对最优阵列处理器的影响

本文研究了通道幅相不一致性、互耦这两种误差对最优阵列处理器性能的影响。理论分析结果表明,对于只利用干扰加噪声协方差矩阵求逆的自适应方法(简称NAMI法),当干噪比(JNR)较大时,这两种误差不会导致零点位置的漂移,但零点深度有所变化;对于信号加干扰和噪声协方差矩阵求逆自适应方法(简称SPNMI法),当信噪此(SNR)较小或较大时,零点位置变化不大,但性能损失比NAMI法严重得多。如果能加以补偿,则SPNMI法与NAMI法有相同的结果。我们用矩量法计算得到的互耦矩阵对此进行了仿真模拟,实验结果证明了理论分析的正确性。

深孔分段爆破法掘进采空区充填井成井的研究

采空区掘进充填井是一次回采嗣后块石胶结充填采矿法的关键。如不解决,采空区将不断扩大,势必造成地压危害和残留空场硫铁矿矿石氧化自然发火。而新桥硫铁矿采空区已达10~4m~3以上。解决采空区充填井已是燃眉之急。采用SQZ-1型潜孔钻车钻凿深孔而后分段爆破成充填井的成功,既解决了新桥矿采空区充填问题,又解决了其他方法不能掘进采空区充填井的问题,对类似矿山有较大的推广应用价值。
