A long-term, high-accuracy and seamless 1km soil moisture dataset over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau during 2001–2020 based on a two-step downscaling method by Yulin Shangguan, Xiaoxiao Min, Nan Wang, Cheng Tong, Zhou Shi

“…However, most existing satellite SM data are only available at coarse scale (~25 km) and suffer a lot from data gaps due to satellite orbit coverage and snow cover, especially on the QTP. Although substantial efforts have been devoted to downscale SM utilizing multiple soil moisture indices (SMIs) or diverse machine learning (ML) methods, the potentials of different SMIs and ML approaches in SM downscaling on the complex plateau remain unclear, and there is still a necessity to obtain an accurate, long-term, high-resolution and seamless SM data over the QTP. …”

Program state optimal method based on variable symbolic relation analysis by Xi GUO, Pan WANG

“…Program analysis is the prime method to program property analysis,which is widely used in the domain of parameter dependent relation,path coverage and test case generation,and a lot of progress has been made.Current program analysis is based on the method of symbolic execution,but symbolic execution is usually tackled with the problems of logic expression generation of path condition and low efficiency of constrain solver,which will affect the results of program analysis.Aiming at enhancing the path analysis efficiency,the path conditions of different paths were collected,the common symbolic expression was extracted and the efficiency of symbolic analysis was enhanced,then the logic expression set was generated,the dependent relation algorithm was used to enhance the efficiency of symbolic analysis.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method has the advantages of accurate time complexity and better analysis efficiency compare to traditional program analysis method.…”
