基于CRC的ASM信号维特比纠错算法

为提高甚高频数据交换系统(very high frequency data exchange system, VDES)中应用特定消息(application-specific messages, ASM)的解码性能, 提出一种基于循环冗余校验(cyclic redundancy check, CRC)的改进维特比纠错算法。通过合理降低符号状态数和使用部分CRC参与纠错, 使该算法平衡了纠错性能和计算量, 同时提出了新的分支度量以解决过于理想化的传统分支度量导致的性能损失。仿真表明, 新分支度量相比传统分支度量提升了1 dB的误帧率(packet error rate, PER)性能, 在用12个CRC寄存器参与纠错的条件下,该方法比相干解调算法提升了1 dB的PER性能, 同时通过合理的符号状态数降低策略将计算量降为传统算法的1/4。     

基于PCA和相位差校正法的风切变预警算法

为了提高相干激光雷达风切变预警算法的预警率,提出一种基于主成分分析（principal component analysis,PCA）和相位差校正法的风切变预警算法。首先,利用PCA对雷达回波信号进行低阶主成分向量提取以实现信号重构,提高信噪比。其次,采用基于快速傅里叶变换的相位差校正法对回波信号峰值频率进行校正,降低回波信号能量泄露。然后,分别利用旋转电机实验数据和小型飞机实验数据对所提算法进行性能评估。结果表明,采用所提算法估计相干激光雷达回波信号峰值频率的平均绝对误差为0.26 MHz,对实际低空风切变的预警率为92.31%。所提算法可以有效降低相干激光雷达回波信号频率估计误差,实现低空风切变预警。     

Short‐term salmon price forecasting

This study establishes a benchmark for short‐term salmon price forecasting. The weekly spot price of Norwegian farmed Atlantic salmon is predicted 1–5 weeks ahead using data from 2007 to 2014. Sixteen alternative forecasting methods are considered, ranging from classical time series models to customized machine learning techniques to salmon futures prices. The best predictions are delivered by k‐nearest neighbors method for 1 week ahead; vector error correction model estimated using elastic net regularization for 2 and 3 weeks ahead; and futures prices for 4 and 5 weeks ahead. While the nominal gains in forecast accuracy over a naïve benchmark are small, the economic value of the forecasts is considerable. Using a simple trading strategy for timing the sales based on price forecasts could increase the net profit of a salmon farmer by around 7%.     

Bias‐corrected bootstrap prediction intervals for autoregressive model: new alternatives with applications to tourism forecasting

This paper proposes the use of the bias‐corrected bootstrap for interval forecasting of an autoregressive time series with an arbitrary number of deterministic components. We use the bias‐corrected bootstrap based on two alternative bias‐correction methods: the bootstrap and an analytic formula based on asymptotic expansion. We also propose a new stationarity‐correction method, based on stable spectral factorization, as an alternative to Kilian's method exclusively used in past studies. A Monte Carlo experiment is conducted to compare small‐sample properties of prediction intervals. The results show that the bias‐corrected bootstrap prediction intervals proposed in this paper exhibit desirable small‐sample properties. It is also found that the bootstrap bias‐corrected prediction intervals based on stable spectral factorization are tighter and more stable than those based on Kilian's stationarity‐correction. The proposed methods are applied to interval forecasting for the number of tourist arrivals in Hong Kong. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Forecast robustness in macroeconometric models

This paper investigates potential invariance of mean forecast errors to structural breaks in the data generating process. From the general forecasting literature, such robustness is expected to be a rare occurrence. With the aid of a stylized macro model we are able to identify some economically relevant cases of robustness and to interpret them economically. We give an interpretation in terms of co‐breaking. The analytical results resound well with the forecasting record of a medium‐scale econometric model of the Norwegian economy.     

末端修正子母弹对面目标的射击效能评估

作为射击精度评估的常用指标,无论是圆概率偏差,还是命中概率都没有涉及面目标的功能结构的重要度,而命中重要程度不同的区域,其射击效能是不同的。针对末修子母弹打击面目标时射击效能的评价问题,在通过数值模拟法产生末修子母弹的落点散布,以及利用毁伤树分析方法对面目标进行功能区域划分的基础上,利用Monte-Carlo仿真方法计算了子母弹对各功能区域的命中概率Pi,并定义了基于区域结构及重要度的射击命中度和毁伤概率,从而综合评估了整体的射击效能。最后通过仿真算例说明了该方法的合理性,并利用均匀设计法定量分析了末修子母弹的性能参数对射击效能的影响。
