Identification and Suppression of Multicomponent Noise in Audio Magnetotelluric Data Based on Convolutional Block Attention Module

Audio magnetotelluric (AMT) is commonly used in mineral resource exploration. However, the weak energy of AMT signals makes them susceptible to being overwhelmed by noise, leading to erroneous geophysical interpretations. In recent years, deep learning has been applied to AMT denoising and has shown better denoising performance compared to...

Creation of memory–memory entanglement in a metropolitan quantum network

Towards realizing the future quantum internet, a pivotal milestone entails the transition from two-node proof-of-principle experiments conducted in laboratories to comprehensive multi-node set-ups on large scales. Here we report the creation of memory–memory entanglement in a multi-node quantum network over a metropolitan area. We use three...

AR-Assisted Assembly in Self-Build Construction with Discrete Components

The prevailing issue of low housing supply is caused in part by a lack of skilled construction workers. If unskilled residents were adequately equipped, they could potentially address this issue, expanding and adapting their homes without professional builders and designers. This research proposes the use of discrete components to build on...

China's transportation sector carbon dioxide emissions efficiency and its influencing factors based on the EBM DEA model with undesirable outputs and spatial Durbin model

The threat of global climate change has caused the international community to pay close attention to atmospheric levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. Transportation sector carbon dioxide emissions efficiency (TSCDEE) is a key indicator used to prioritize sustainable development in the transportation sector. In this paper, the...
