    The development of city-scale vegetation maps is helpful for vegetation management and conservation. Vegetation classification systems in China mainly consider natural vegetation and most classification systems operate at the national or provincial scale, making them unsuitable for city-scale classification. Until now, the lack of a classification system designed specifically for urban vegetation has limited the studies on urban vegetation. Based on the origin, disturbance, and function, our classification system divides urban vegetation into natural, secondary, and cultivated vegetations. Based on the function, cultivated vegetation is further divided into artificial forest land, landscape green land , and urban agricultural vegetations. Based on the Classification System of China’s Vegetation in 1980 and the three newly proposed preliminary guideline documents for classification of natural vegetation, we establish a new urban vegetation classification system. We applied the principles of this new urban system in Shanghai and other areas in China, to further refine the system and ensure it has both academic and practical values. This work provides the theoretical basis for compiling information about urban vegetation and provides technical support for the recognition, protection, construction, and management of urban vegetation.

    Wei DENG, Fang ZHOU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (4): 52-64.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.04.006
    Abstract188)   HTML12)    PDF (1179KB)(241)      

    Acute kidney injury is a clinical disease with a high morbidity rate, and early identification of potential patients can facilitate medical interventions to reduce morbidity and mortality. In recent years, electronic health records have been widely used to predict an individual’s potential risk. Most of the existing acute kidney injury prediction models tackle the issue of sparsity and irregularity in the physiological variables data by aggregating data or imputing the missing value, but ignore the patient’s health status implied by the missing information. Moreover, they do not consider the characteristics of and correlation between the various modalities. To solve the above issues, we present a multi-modal disease prediction model for acute kidney injury. The proposed model considers a variety of modal data, including physiological variables, disease, and demographic data. A new mask and time span based long short term memory (LSTM) network is designed to learn the time span and missing information of individual Physiological variables, and furthermore, to capture their numerical changes and frequency changes. The multi-head self-attention mechanism is introduced to promote interaction learning of each modality representation. Experiments on the real-world application of acute kidney injury risk prediction and mortality risk prediction demonstrate the effectiveness and rationality of the proposed model.

    LaSalle’s invariance principle for delay differential equations driven by α-stable processes
    Zhenzhong ZHANG, Xu CHEN, Jinying TONG
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (4): 11-23.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.04.002
    Abstract154)   HTML6)    PDF (696KB)(200)      

    LaSalle’s invariance principle is an important tool for studying the stability of stochastic systems. Considering the influence of time delay and pure-jump path on the stability of the system and using the convergence theorem for special semi-martingale, the LaSalle’s invariance principle for a class of stochastic delay differential equations driven by $\alpha$ -stable processes is established in this study. The sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of a class of delay equations are given by LaSalle’s invariance principle.

    Assessment of land use exposure to coastal erosion in the delta region and its implications on spatial planning: An example from the Pudong New Area of Shanghai
    Xiaoting WANG, Hualong LUAN, Weiguo ZHANG, Nina Siu-Ngan LAM
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (3): 181-193.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.03.018
    Abstract143)   HTML16)    PDF (2164KB)(186)      

    In the context of rising sea-levels under global warming and fluvial sediment load decline, the risk of coastal erosion is increasing in global deltas. Evaluating the delta morphological change and its vulnerability to erosion in the future and analyzing land use exposure to coastal erosion, is of great significance for spatial planning, disaster prevention and mitigation, and the sustainable development of coastal regions. In this study, Pudong New Area of Shanghai, which is located in the Yangtze River Delta, was selected to compare its coastal erosion vulnerability in 2016 and 2035 using bathymetry of 2016 and modelled bathymetry of 2035 under a scenario of fluvial sediment load of 125 Mt/a and a cumulative sea-level rise of 16.5 cm. A comparison of land use exposure is made between the pattern in 2019 and the pattern projected for 2035 by the government. The results show that the spatial pattern of coastal erosion vulnerability is controlled by the morphological evolution of the delta over the last 1000 years. Coastal sections with high and very high categories of land use exposure and erosion vulnerability in the recent past (2016—2019) total 32.3 km in length, which accounts for 31.1% of the coast of the Pudong New Area. These figures are projected to be 47.5 km and 45.8%, respectively, in 2035, under the condition of reduced fluvial sediment load and planned land usage. In 2035, coastal sections along the Pudong Airport and Luchaogang will face an increase of erosion vulnerability category. According to the current plan, these two sections also show an increase in land use exposure due to airport expansion and new city development. The results suggest that these sections require erosion monitoring and erosion management during implementation of the plan. The methods used in this study can provide references for exposure assessment of coastal erosion and the formulation of territorial planning in coastal regions elsewhere.

    Computational study on strain-induced transition of Fe2CrGe from an antiferromagnetic ground state to a ferromagnetic half-metal state
    Jin GUO, Xiao HU, Wenhui XIE
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (4): 65-73.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.04.007
    Abstract134)   HTML7)    PDF (1097KB)(174)      

    In this study, the electronic structure and magnetism of the Heusler alloy Fe2CrGe are investigated using first-principle calculations. Results show that the ground state of Fe2CrGe is antiferromagnetic metal in which Fe ion and Cr ion are in low- and high-spin states of $ S=0 $ and $ S=1 $ , respectively. The energy of the antiferromagnetic state is approximately 0.103 eV less than that of the ferromagnetic state. In addition, when a tetragonal strain is applied to Fe2CrGe, a transition from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic material occurs at +1.7% and –1.7% strains, and Fe2CrGe becomes a ferromagnetic half-metal. A half-metal energy gap of approximately 0.2 eV occurs when the strain reaches ±5%. The Curie temperature of Fe2CrGe is estimated to be 393 K, which is much higher than room temperature, indicating that Fe2CrGe may be a potential candidate for spintronic applications.

    Diversity of plants in Chinese Taoist temples and the distribution pattern of Taoist tree species
    Wei CHANG, Yongchuan YANG, Cheng JIN, Xinyang WANG, Li HUANG, Lihua ZHOU, Siwei HU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (3): 9-19.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.03.002
    Abstract299)   HTML246)    PDF (1768KB)(143)      

    In this study, we obtained tree species from 72 Taoist temples across China. We subsequently documented the tree species composition, distribution pattern, and impact factors in different regions to determine the role of Taoist temples in biodiversity protection. The results showed that: ① Among 72 Taoist temples sampled across China, we observed a total of 354 species of trees, belonging to 85 families and 208 genera; ② The tree species in the Taoist temples were mainly native species, and the mean value for the proportion of native species in each Taoist temple was 62.5%±19.8% (mean ± standard deviation). Most of the Taoist temples (77.8%), moreover, housed threatened tree species; ③ Taoist tree species originated largely from subtropical regions, with the Yangtze River Basin being the most represented, especially in the southwest and south-central regions where a relatively large proportion of ethnic minorities reside; ④ The main factors affecting the distribution of Taoist tree species were geography and climate, but their composition was indistinguishable within each climate zone. As the climatic zone moves northward, there is no religious tree species replacement phenomenon (i.e., replacing the original religious tree species by native tree species with similar morphology or cultural meaning). The above results indicate that Taoist temples are rich in plant resources, which are potential biodiversity treasures. Thus, they play an essential role in protecting and maintaining biodiversity, with the potential to serve as a reference for regional ecological restoration and urban green space construction.

    Responses of saltwater intrusion in the Changjiang Estuary to various river discharge under a persistent and strong northerly wind
    Wei QIU, Jianrong ZHU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (3): 132-146.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.03.013
    Abstract131)   HTML18)    PDF (6717KB)(126)      

    In February 2014, a persistent and strong northerly wind caused an extremely severe saltwater intrusion event in the Changjiang Estuary, which posed a threat to the safety of water intake from this source. Increasing river discharge from upstream reservoirs in the river basin is a method to combat severe saltwater intrusion. To simulate and analyze the effects of various river discharges on saltwater intrusion, we used the Unstructured quadrilateral grid, Finite-differencing, Estuarine and Coastal three-dimensional Ocean numerical Model (UnFECOM). By taking into account realistic river discharge and wind conditions, the model accurately reproduced the extremely severe saltwater intrusion process that occurred in February 2014. Our findings indicated that the net water flux (NWF) across the section at the upper reaches of the North Channel (NC) remained landward during the most critical period of saltwater intrusion from February 10 to 13, 2014, despite the increase in river discharge. However, the magnitude of NWF tended to decrease with increasing river discharge. The net water diversion ratio (WDR), NWF (Net Water Flux), and salt flux increased with the increase in river discharge. Under realistic river discharge conditions, WDR was –29% (the negative sign indicates that the NWF is landward), NWF was –2300 m 3/s, and the net salt flux (NSF) was –68 t/s, indicating that the NWF and NSF were landward due to the landward Ekman transport effect induced by the persistent severe northly wind. When the river discharge increased by 3000 m 3/s, WDR and NWF across the section were nearly zero, and NSF was –34 t/s. When the river discharge increased by 8000 m 3/s, WDR was 21.5% and NWF was seaward, at 3550 m3/s. NSF was –6 t/s and landward. At the water intake of Qingcaosha Reservoir, the longest continuous unsuitable water intake time decreased slightly when the river discharge increased by less than 4000 m 3/s. When the river discharge increased to 5000 m3/s, the longest continuous unsuitable water intake time decreased significantly to 10.5 days. It may be challenging to achieve the necessary value and duration of river discharge increase required for the actual operation of the Three Gorges Reservoir. To ensure the safety of water intake, implementing an early warning and forecasting system for saltwater intrusion and storing water into the reservoir at a high level before the intrusion occurs are recommended as effective methods.

    Automatic generation of Web front-end code based on UI images
    Jin GE, Xuesong LU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (5): 100-109.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.05.009
    Abstract324)   HTML15)    PDF (1748KB)(114)      

    User interfaces (UIs) play a vital role in the interactions between an application and its users. The current popularity of mobile Internet has led to the large-scale migration of web-based applications from desktop to mobile. Web front-end development has become more extensive and in-depth in application development. Traditional web front-end development relies on designers to give initial design drafts and then programmers to write the corresponding UI code. This method has high industry barriers and slow development, which are not conducive to rapid product iteration. The development of deep learning makes it possible to automatically generate web front-end code based on UI images. Existing methods poorly capture the features of UI images, and the accuracy of the generated code is low. To mitigate these problems, we propose an encoder–decoder model, called image2code, based on the Swin Transformer, which is used to generate web front-end code from UI images. Image2code regards the process of generating web front-end code from UI images as an image captioning task and uses Swin Transformer with a sliding window design as the backbone network of the encoder and decoder. The sliding window operation limits the attention calculation to one window, which reduces the amount of calculation by the attention mechanism while simultaneously ensuring that feature connections remain across windows. In addition, image2code generates Emmet code, which is much simpler and can be directly converted to HTML code, improving the efficiency of model training. Experimental results show that image2code performs better than existing representative models, such as pix2code and image2emmet, in the task of web front-end code generation on existing and newly constructed datasets.

    Kun HE, Ziyu ZHANG, Annan SONG, Qifan SHEN, Jiayi WANG, Xuechu CHEN
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (3): 158-166.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.03.015
    Abstract193)   HTML24)    PDF (831KB)(109)      

    Yingwuzhou Wetland is an artificially restored coastal salt marsh wetland aimed at improving ecosystem services. Development of the wetland has restored the original damaged coastal ecosystem through comprehensive coastline ecological engineering measures. The birds in the study site have been investigated and researched using the route survey method since 2018, and changes in the bird population and species diversity have been analyzed to evaluate the effectiveness of coastal zone ecological restoration projects and the impact of different wetland habitat types on bird diversity. The results showed that 67 bird species were recorded in the wetland, belonging to 13 orders and 32 families, with the largest number of birds belonging to Passeriformes, including 42 species belonging to 18 families. There were 35 species of resident birds, 24 species of winter migratory birds, 10 species of summer migratory birds, and 8 species of migratory birds. Among these, one species of national class I and seven species of class II are in the List of Key Protected Wild Animals in China, respectively. Remiz consobrinus, Gallinula chloropus, Acridotheres cristatellus, Tachybaptus ruficollis, Spodiopsar cineraceus, Hirundo rustica, and Passer montanus were the dominant species. The number of wetland bird species increased annually. There were significant differences in the bird species, quantity, and Shannon–Wiener indexes among different seasons. The declining trends of bird species, quantity, and Shannon–Wiener index were in the orders of fall > winter > spring > summer, fall > winter > summer > spring, and fall > spring > winter > summer, respectively. The bird numbers and species were the highest in the natural wetland complex area. Declining trends of the Shannon–Wiener index in different habitat areas were observed for the natural wetland complex area, salt marsh wetland restoration area, clear water conservation area, lawn activity area, and wetland purification exhibition area. The ecological restoration of the coastline has enriched the bird diversity of the wetland. Habitats with rich patch types and high patch mosaic have a markedly positive impact on bird diversity. The results of this study can provide a scientific basis for the coastal ecological restoration and sustainable development of coastline wetlands.

    Method for improving the quality of trajectory data for riding-map inference
    Jie CHEN, Wenyi SHEN, Wenyu WU, Jiali MAO
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (6): 14-27.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.06.002
    Abstract107)   HTML12)    PDF (5823KB)(107)      

    The trajectory optimization of cycling is hindered by the errors of positioning equipment, riding habits of non-motor vehicles, and other factors. It leads to quality problems, such as abnormal data and missing positioning information in the riding trajectory, impacting the application of trajectory-based riding-map inference and riding-path planning. To solve these problems, this paper creates a framework for improving the quality of cycling-trajectory data, based on the construction of a grid index, screening of abnormal trajectory points, elimination of wandering trajectory segments, elimination of illegal trajectory segments, calibration of drift trajectory segments, and recovery of missing trajectory. Comparative and ablation experiments are conducted by using a real non-motor-vehicle cycling-trajectory dataset. The experimental results verify that the proposed method improves the accuracy of cycling-map inference.

First of all, the existence and uniqueness of a global positive solution of the proposed model is discussed. Then, sufficient conditions for ergodicity are specified. Finally, conditions for positive recurrence of the model are presented.

    Yang CAO, Dungang GU, Guanghui LI, Minsheng HUANG, Wenhui HE
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2024, 2024 (1): 9-16.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2024.01.002

    Oxygen-releasing materials are often used in the treatment and restoration of urban waters as an important method to enhance dissolved oxygen. The development of materials with slow-release property can improve the durability and stability of oxygen release in practical engineering. This paper reviews the preparation methods and oxygen release performance of the slow-release oxygen materials reported in recent years. Moreover, the effects and mechanisms of slow-release oxygen materials on the occurrence, migration, and transformation of pollutants such as nutrients in sediments and overlying water of rivers and lakes are reviewed. Finally, prospects and suggestions for the application of slow-release oxygen materials in the remediation of rivers and lakes are proposed.

    Persistent memory- and shared cache architecture-based high-performance database
    Congcong WANG, Huiqi HU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (5): 1-10.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.05.001
    Abstract173)   HTML23)    PDF (1228KB)(94)      

    The upsurge in cloud-native databases has been drawing attention to shared architectures. Although a shared cache architecture can effectively address cache consistency issues among multiple read-write nodes, problems still exist, such as slow persistence speed, high latency in maintaining cache directories, and timestamp bottlenecks. To address these issues, this study proposes a shared cache architecture-based solution that is combined with novel persistent memory hardware, to realize a three-layer shared architecture database—TampoDB, which includes memory, persistent memory, and storage layers. The transaction execution process was redesigned based on this architecture with optimized timestamps and directories, thereby resolving the aforementioned problems. Experimental results show that TampoDB effectively enhances the persistence speed of transactions.

    Zhuqing HE, Xinyi LIAO
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (6): 119-124.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.06.011
    Abstract123)   HTML5)    PDF (1055KB)(91)      

    This research study focuses on Tettigoniidea and Gryllidea insects distributed across Shanghai Pujiang Country Park, with data collected twice a month from April to December of Year 2020 and 2021. The results show that 8 species of Tettigonioidea, 16 species of Grylloidea, and 1 species of Gryllotalpidae live in Shanghai Pujiang Country Park. The adult phase and voltinism in their life cycles, moreover, were found to be stable. Most Tettigoniidea and Gryllidea tend to overwinter in soil as diapause eggs, and a proportion of them overwinter as nymphs. The research suggests, furthermore, that using the calling songs of Tettigoniidea and Gryllidea can be a simple and effective way to carry out studies about phenology and ecology of singing insect.

    Integrating multi-granularity semantic features into the Chinese sentiment analysis method
    Juxiang REN, Zhongbao LIU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (6): 95-107.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.06.009
    Abstract110)   HTML5)    PDF (898KB)(88)      

    Chinese sentiment analysis is one of important researches in natural language processing, which aims to discover the sentimental tendencies in the Chinese text. In recent years, research on Chinese text sentiment analysis has made great progress in efficiencies, but few studies have explored the characteristics of the language and downstream task requirements. Therefore, in view of the particularity of Chinese text and the requirements of sentiment analysis, using the Chinese text sentiment analysis method that integrates multi-granularity semantic features, such as characters, words, radicals, and part-of-speech is proposed. This introduces radical features and emotional part-of-speech features based on character and word features. Additionally, this integration uses bidirectional the long short-term memory network (BLSTM), attention mechanism and recurrent convolutional neural network (RCNN). The softmax function is used to predict the sentimental tendencies by integrating multi-granularity semantic features. The comparative experiment results on the NLPECC (natural language processing and Chinese computing) dataset showed that the F1 score of the proposed method was 84.80%, which improved the performance of the existing methods to some extent and completed the Chinese text sentiment analysis task.

    Effects of coastal engineering and biological invasion on changes in the coastal pattern of Nanhui Dongtan, Shanghai
    Tingyu ZHANG, Lin YUAN, Chao ZHANG, Yang LI, Zhiyuan ZHAO, Yuxiao SHI, Liquan ZHANG, Jinghua GU
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (3): 167-180.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.03.016
    Abstract173)   HTML17)    PDF (2515KB)(87)      

    Under the dual influence of human activities and natural factors, the coastal zone patterns are prone to rapid changes which can directly or indirectly affect the structure, function, and sustainable development of the coastal ecosystem. Using the coastal zone of Nanhui Dongtan in Shanghai as a typical research area, we used remote sensing interpretation, sea chart digitization, and field investigation to analyze changes in spatial patterns and changes in coastal zones over the last 20 years (from 2000 to 2020). In addition, the effects of coastal engineering (including reclamation engineering and siltation promotion engineering) and S. alterniflora invasion on coastal pattern dynamics were analyzed. The results showed that: ① Since 2000, under the influence of coastal engineering and biological invasion, the land use types of Nanhui Dongtan coastal zone changed from a simple pattern dominated by coastal wetlands to a complex pattern which included multiple land use types (i.e. coastal wetlands, inland wetlands, constructed wetlands, farmland, and construction land). ② Coastal reclamation engineering decreased 11894.7 hm2 of coastal wetlands in the Nanhui Dongtan coastal zone from 2000 to 2005. The reclaimed coastal wetlands were transferred into land use types such as rice fields, ponds, and farmland due to human activities; the reclamation engineering promoted deposition of sediment in the estuary and tidal mudflat (above 0 m) and the intertidal salt marsh developed with increased rates of 320.5 hm2/a and 110.9 hm2/a, respectively; meanwhile, the siltation rate decreased to 286.8 hm2/a and 15.7 hm2/a, respectively, after 2015. After 10 years (2005—2015) of natural recovery, the area of coastal wetlands did not reach the levels seen before reclamation in Year 2000. ③ Two types of siltation promotion engineering—hard siltation promotion engineering and biological siltation promotion engineering—have both significantly promoted the rapid development of coastal wetlands in Nanhui Dongtan. Hard silting promotion engineering with propagation rates of 516.9 hm2/a in tidal mudflats (above 0 m) and 915.7 hm2/a in intertidal salt marshes, respectively, was 5.4 times and 13.9 times higher than rates observed in non-siltation areas; hence, the effects were more significant than biological siltation promotion engineering which only resulted in pattern changes in a limited area between the seawall and the wave dissipation dike by planting S. alterniflora. ④ After introducing S. alterniflora in Nanhui Dongtan, it became the most dominant plant in the Nanhui Dongtan salt marsh, accounting for 56% of the total area; this significantly changed the ecological structure and function of coastal wetlands in 2020. Coastal engineering and biological invasion have a great impact on coastal zone patterns. Although the coastal ecosystem showed a certain resilience to coastal human activities, changes in the wetland type, area, and function were difficult or impossible to recover at a great cost in the future. How to integrate the ecological functions of coastal wetlands and inland wetlands through the implementation of coastal zone restoration, ecological protection, and other measures to achieve the sustainable and healthy development of coastal zones is an important problem for future land and sea planning.

    Examination of the effect of decoherence evolution on Jaynes-Cummings model
    Yiman HUANG, Lei MA
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Science)    2023, 2023 (4): 101-108.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-5641.2023.04.011
    Abstract99)   HTML5)    PDF (985KB)(87)      

    The Kraus operator-sum representation method for mixed-state evolution was used to analyze the change in the fidelity and von Neumann entropy of the final state after decoherent time evolution. The analysis was based on the Jaynes-Cummings model for the initial state set in the depolarization mode. The results show that the fidelity of the quantum state undergoing decoherent evolution exhibits decaying oscillations with time until it becomes stable, while the von Neumann entropy exhibits oscillations of decreasing amplitude with time.
