人造细胞

本书是至今为止对人造细胞以及相关领域最为全面的概述。作为该书的作者，Thomas Ming Swi Chang，加拿大的华人科学家，有着对人造细胞深厚的造诣。从他第一次设计人造红血球细胞到现在50多年的时间里，他一直活跃于这一领域。在这本书中，作者从当初对人造细胞不可思议的想法娓娓道来；像叙述历史一样讲述了人造细胞从简单的构思到复杂的分子机制以及应用的经历，并且预测了今后人造细胞的发展方向。     

Samples Selection for Artificial Neural Network Training in Preliminary Structural Design

An artificial neural network (ANN) is applied in the preliminary structural design of reticulated shells. Major efforts are made to enhance the generalization ability of networks through well-selected training samples. Number-theoretic methods (NTMs) are adopted to generate samples with low discrepancy, i.e.uniformly scattered in the domain, where discrepancy is a quantitative measurement of the uniformity. The discrepancy of the NTM-based sample set is 1/6-1/7 that of samples with equal spacing. In a case study,networks trained by NTM-based samples are compared with those trained by equal-spaced samples in generalizing performance. The results show that both the computational precision and stability of the former ANNs are more satisfactory than those of the latter. It is concluded that the flexibility of ANNs in generalizing can be effectively increased by use of uniformly distributed training samples rather than simply piling data.More reliable uniformity should be obtained, however, through NTMs instead of equal-spaced samples.     

关于人造天体运动轨迹确定的一种方法

作者在该文中,从万有引力定律出发,根据有心力的特点,再采用切坐标法很方便地推导出在地球万有引力作用下,人天体运动的轨道必是圆锥曲线,并指出由发射时初始条件能方便地进一步确定其轨迹的形状。
