Abstract

The ionogram autoscaling technique is very important for facilitating the statistical investigation of the ionosphere. Jiang et al. (2013) proposed an autoscaling technique for extracting ionospheric characteristics from vertical incidence ionograms. However, extensive efforts are invested in continuously improving the performance of that. The simulated annealing (SA) is used to improve the autoscaling technique in this paper. To be capable of automatic scaling of ionograms recorded at different locations, the SA is applied instead of Empirical Orthogonal Functions (EOFs) to search the best-fit parameters in the autoscaling technique. In order to validate the improvement of this autoscaling technique, ionograms recorded at Wuhan (30.5°N, 114.3°E), Puer (22.7°N, 101.05°E) and Leshan (29.6°N, 103.75°E) are investigated by comparing the autoscaled results with the values scaled by an operator. Results show that the presented work is efficient for scaling of ionograms recorded at different geographic positions. Moreover, the additional procedure can improve the accuracy of the autoscaling technique compared to results presented by Jiang et al. (2013).

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
