In order to overcome the shortcomings of the poor quality of the final generated video summary by reason of the incomplete selection of video feature points, a compressed domain video summarization generation algorithm is proposed based on HEVC intra-frame coding. Firstly, the weighted luminance and chrominance mode numbers are counted at the decoding end, respectively. Then, the feature vectors composed of the above two mode numbers are fused and normalized to obtain a mode feature histogram. Secondly, the normalized mode feature histograms are assigned different weight factors, and the two are merged into a new mode feature histogram model to reflect the texture features of the image. Finally, the histogram difference method is used to determine the similarity between two-frame mode feature histograms, and ultimately the histogram classification is used to generate the video summaries. The experimental results show that the accuracy of keyframe extraction on the Open Video Project dataset is 0.82, the error rate is 0.64. And that, the average recall rate achieves 82.0%, and the average F-score is 73.3%. The key frames extracted by the algorithm better reflect the image texture, and the video summary quality is further improved.

On the basis of the development prospect of energy industry and the safety production situation of coal mine, the composition structure and working principle of low-voltage control equipment applied in coal mines were analyzed, and the electric power and thermal effect theory of low-voltage control equipment applied in coal mine were studied, and the design scheme of overload resistance test system was put forward, meanwhile, the flameproof electromagnetic starter for coal mines was tested according to the coal industry standard. The test results show that the design of the overload tolerance is reasonable.

Limited information is available about the current epidemic status of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in Guangdong province in South China, where hepatitis B is endemic. We sought to provide an up-to-date assessment of hepatitis B prevalence in a large population through a community-based study. A total of 169,211 local residents were recruited using the stratified cluster random sampling method from 2014 to 2015, and each participant’s information was collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Accordingly, the prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in the total population was 8.76%. HBsAg prevalence was lowest (0.29%) among children aged 0–12 years and highest (12.71%) among those aged 23–59 years. Moreover, the prevalence (8.82%) in males approximately equalled that (8.65%) in females (P > 0.05). Overall, vaccination was effective in preventing HBV infection, regardless of age. Among adults aged 23–59 years, male sex tended to keep the HBsAg persistence. However, reduced persistence for participants with occasional physical exercise and drinking was observed. For participants older than 59 years, a history of prior surgery placed people at high risk for infection. Although Guangdong has successfully decreased the HBsAg prevalence among children, it is urgent to expand vaccination to adults, and employ interventions to reduce the infection risk.

Objectives In epidemiological studies, it is important to identify independent associations between collective exposures and a health outcome. The current stepwise selection technique ignores stochastic errors and suffers from a lack of stability. The alternative LASSO-penalized regression model can be applied to detect significant predictors from a pool of candidate variables. However, this technique is prone to false positives and tends to create excessive biases. It remains challenging to develop robust variable selection methods and enhance predictability. Material and methods Two improved algorithms denoted the two-stage hybrid and bootstrap ranking procedures, both using a LASSO-type penalty, were developed for epidemiological association analysis. The performance of the proposed procedures and other methods including conventional LASSO, Bolasso, stepwise and stability selection models were evaluated using intensive simulation. In addition, methods were compared by using an empirical analysis based on large-scale survey data of hepatitis B infection-relevant factors among Guangdong residents. Results The proposed procedures produced comparable or less biased selection results when compared to conventional variable selection models. In total, the two newly proposed procedures were stable with respect to various scenarios of simulation, demonstrating a higher power and a lower false positive rate during variable selection than the compared methods. In empirical analysis, the proposed procedures yielding a sparse set of hepatitis B infection-relevant factors gave the best predictive performance and showed that the procedures were able to select a more stringent set of factors. The individual history of hepatitis B vaccination, family and individual history of hepatitis B infection were associated with hepatitis B infection in the studied residents according to the proposed procedures. Conclusions The newly proposed procedures improve the identification of significant variables and enable us to derive a new insight into epidemiological association analysis.
