To address the limitations in global seafloor topography model construction, a scheme is proposed that takes into account the efficiency of seafloor topography prediction, the applicability of inversion methods, the heterogeneity of seafloor environments, and the inversion advantages of sea surface gravity field element. Using the South China Sea as a study area, we analyzed and developed the methodology in modeling the seafloor topography, and then evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of the modeling strategy. Based on the proposed modeling approach, the STO_IEU2020 global bathymetry model was constructed using various input data, including the SIO V29.1 gravity anomaly (GA) and vertical gravity gradient anomaly (VGG), as well as bathymetric data from multiple sources (single beam, multi-beam, seismic, Electronic Navigation Chart, and radar sensor). Five evaluation areas located in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans were used to assess the performance of the generated model. The results showed that 79%, 89%, 72%, 92% and 93% of the checkpoints were within the ±100 m range for the five evaluation areas, and with average relative accuracy better than 6%. The generated STO_IEU2020 model correlates well with the SIO V20.1 model, indicating that the proposed construction strategy for global seafloor topography is feasible.
The conventional average acceleration approach relies on K-band range observation, containing an unknown bias, which leads to possible degradation of the precision of Earth’s gravity field modelling. It also suffers from correlated errors caused by three-point numerical differentiation. In this study, an improved approach is proposed that makes use of K-band range-rate observations instead and overcoming the influence of correlated errors by introducing a whitening filter. GRACE-Follow On data spanning the period from January 2019 to December 2022 were processed by the proposed approach and a series of time-varying gravity field models was derived, referred to as SSM-AAA-GFO in this paper. This model series is compared comprehensively with three official model series. Results demonstrate that all model series are highly coincident below degree 30 and reflect similar time-varying gravity field signals in both large and small basins. After filtering, SSM-AAA-GFO shows uncertainty, in the form of equivalent water height below 2.5 cm, which is comparable with three official model series. The comparison results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approach for precisely modelling a time-varying gravity field based on K-band range-rate observations.

In complex process systems, accurate real-time anomaly detection is essential to ensure operational safety and reliability. This study proposes a novel detection method that combines information granulation with kernel principal component analysis (KPCA). Here, information granulation is introduced as a general framework, with the principle of justifiable granularity (PJG) adopted as the specific implementation. Time series data are first granulated using PJG to extract compact features that preserve local dynamics. The KPCA model, equipped with a radial basis function kernel, is then applied to capture nonlinear correlations and construct monitoring statistics including and SPE. Thresholds are derived from training data and used for online anomaly detection. The method is evaluated on the Tennessee Eastman process and Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor datasets, covering various types of faults. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a near-zero false alarm rate below 1% and maintains a missed detection rate under 6%, highlighting its effectiveness and robustness across different fault scenarios and industrial datasets.
