Optimal Control Strategies of HFMD in Wenzhou, China by Zuqin Ding, Yong Li, Yongli Cai, Yueping Dong, Weiming Wang

“…We define the basic reproduction number R0 and show that it can be used to determine whether HFMD becomes extinct or not. Based on the monthly reported HFMD cases in Wenzhou for 76 months, we estimate the parameters in the dynamic model by using the method of minimum chi-square fitting, conduct the sensitivity analysis to investigate the influence of each uncertain parameter on R0 with the methods of Latin hypercube sampling and partial rank correlation coefficient, and find that the EV-A71 vaccination does not lead to the extinction of HFMD, but slightly reduces the incidence of HFMD. …”

Research on voxel-based land complex modelling and adaptive resolution expression methodology by D. Sun, T. Shen, L. Huo, F. Kong

“…In order to improve the efficient use of land complex resources, explore the application of voxel model in land complex change monitoring, and propose a voxel-based land complex modelling and adaptive resolution expression method for the problem of large data redundancy and poor expression effect in the dynamic expression of land complex voxel model.Firstly, voxel classification and stratification are carried out through element characteristics to determine the elements suitable for voxel modelling; then, based on the analysis of terrain factors, the adaptive resolution expression method is constructed by optimizing the node evaluation criterion through the comprehensive consideration of sight distance and comprehensive terrain complexity.The results show that the method in this paper can achieve efficient expression and smooth scheduling of land complex voxel models at different resolutions, thus significantly reducing the computational complexity while maintaining the expression accuracy of important features.…”
