using MathNet.Numerics.Statistics;

public class ScientificComputing
{
    public void MatrixOperations()
    {
        // 创建矩阵
        var matrixA = Matrix<double>.Build.DenseOfArray(new double[,]
        {
            {1, 2, 3},
            {4, 5, 6},
            {7, 8, 10}
        });
        
        var matrixB = Matrix<double>.Build.DenseOfArray(new double[,]
        {
            {1, 0, 0},
            {0, 1, 0},
            {0, 0, 1}
        });
        
        // 矩阵运算
        var result = matrixA.Multiply(matrixB);
        var inverse = matrixA.Inverse();
        var determinant = matrixA.Determinant();
        
        Console.WriteLine($"矩阵行列式: {determinant}");
    }
    
    public void StatisticalAnalysis()
    {
        // 统计分析
        var data = new double[] { 1.2, 2.3, 3.4, 4.5, 5.6 };
        
        double mean = data.Mean();
        double stdDev = data.StandardDeviation();
        double median = data.Median();
        
        Console.WriteLine($"均值: {mean}, 标准差: {stdDev}, 中位数: {median}");
        
        // 线性回归
        var x = new double[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
        var y = new double[] { 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 };
        
        var (intercept, slope) = Fit.Line(x, y);
        Console.WriteLine($"回归方程: y = {slope}x + {intercept}");
    }
    
    public void DifferentialEquations()
    {
        // 解微分方程 dy/dx = -2x - y
        Func<double, double, double> differentialEquation = (x, y) => -2 * x - y;
        
        // 使用欧拉法求解
        double x0 = 0, y0 = 1, h = 0.1;
        int steps = 100;
        
        for (int i = 0; i < steps; i++)
        {
            y0 += h * differentialEquation(x0, y0);
            x0 += h;
            
            if (i % 10 == 0)
                Console.WriteLine($"x={x0:F2}, y={y0:F4}");
        }
    }
}

1.2 使用Accord.NET进行信号处理

using Accord.Audio;
using Accord.Audio.Filters;
using Accord.Math;

public class SignalProcessing
{
    public void AnalyzeSignal()
    {
        // 生成测试信号
        double[] signal = GenerateTestSignal(1000, 100);
        
        // 快速傅里叶变换
        Accord.Math.Complex32[] fft = 
            FourierTransform.FFT(signal.ToComplex());
        
        // 计算功率谱
        double[] powerSpectrum = new double[fft.Length / 2];
        for (int i = 0; i < powerSpectrum.Length; i++)
        {
            powerSpectrum[i] = fft[i].MagnitudeSquared;
        }
        
        // 滤波处理
        var filter = new HighPassFilter(10); // 10Hz高通滤波
        double[] filtered = filter.Apply(signal);
    }
    
    private double[] GenerateTestSignal(int length, int frequency)
    {
        double[] signal = new double[length];
        for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
        {
            double t = i / (double)frequency;
            signal[i] = Math.Sin(2 * Math.PI * 5 * t) +  // 5Hz信号
                        0.5 * Math.Sin(2 * Math.PI * 20 * t); // 20Hz噪声
        }
        return signal;
    }
}

二、数据可视化与图表绘制

2.1 使用OxyPlot创建科学图表

using OxyPlot;
using OxyPlot.Axes;
using OxyPlot.Series;

public class ScientificPlotting
{
    public PlotModel CreateScatterPlot()
    {
        var model = new PlotModel { Title = "实验数据散点图" };
        
        // 添加坐标轴
        model.Axes.Add(new LinearAxis 
        { 
            Position = AxisPosition.Bottom, 
            Title = "X轴 (时间/s)" 
        });
        model.Axes.Add(new LinearAxis 
        { 
            Position = AxisPosition.Left, 
            Title = "Y轴 (强度)" 
        });
        
        // 创建散点系列
        var scatterSeries = new ScatterSeries
        {
            MarkerType = MarkerType.Circle,
            MarkerSize = 4
        };
        
        // 添加实验数据
        var random = new Random();
        for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
        {
            double x = i * 0.1;
            double y = Math.Sin(x) + random.NextDouble() * 0.2;
            
            scatterSeries.Points.Add(new ScatterPoint(x, y));
        }
        
        model.Series.Add(scatterSeries);
        return model;
    }
    
    public PlotModel CreateHeatMap()
    {
        var model = new PlotModel { Title = "热力图" };
        
        // 生成热力图数据
        int width = 100, height = 100;
        double[,] data = new double[width, height];
        
        for (int i = 0; i < width; i++)
        {
            for (int j = 0; j < height; j++)
            {
                double x = (i - width / 2.0) / 10.0;
                double y = (j - height / 2.0) / 10.0;
                data[i, j] = Math.Exp(-(x * x + y * y));
            }
        }
        
        var heatMapSeries = new HeatMapSeries
        {
            X0 = 0,
            X1 = width,
            Y0 = 0,
            Y1 = height,
            Data = data
        };
        
        model.Series.Add(heatMapSeries);
        return model;
    }
}

2.2 3D数据可视化

{
    public void Create3DModel()
    {
        var model = new HelixToolkit.Wpf.MeshBuilder();
        
        // 创建3D表面
        for (int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
        {
            for (int j = 0; j < 50; j++)
            {
                double x = i * 0.1;
                double y = j * 0.1;
                double z = Math.Sin(x) * Math.Cos(y);
                
                model.Positions.Add(new System.Windows.Media.Media3D.Point3D(x, y, z));
            }
        }
        
        // 在WPF中显示3D模型
        var meshGeometry = model.ToMesh();
        DisplayInWpf(meshGeometry);
    }
}

三、高性能并行计算

3.1 使用Parallel.For进行数据并行处理

public class ParallelComputing
{
    public void ProcessLargeDataset()
    {
        int dataSize = 1000000;
        double[] inputData = GenerateLargeDataset(dataSize);
        double[] results = new double[dataSize];
        
        // 并行处理大数据集
        Parallel.For(0, dataSize, i =>
        {
            results[i] = ComplexCalculation(inputData[i]);
        });
        
        Console.WriteLine($"处理完成 {dataSize} 个数据点");
    }
    
    public void MonteCarloSimulation()
    {
        int iterations = 10000000;
        int insideCircle = 0;
        var random = new Random();
        
        // 并行蒙特卡洛模拟计算π值
        Parallel.For(0, iterations, i =>
        {
            double x = random.NextDouble();
            double y = random.NextDouble();
            
            if (x * x + y * y <= 1.0)
            {
                Interlocked.Increment(ref insideCircle);
            }
        });
        
        double piEstimate = 4.0 * insideCircle / iterations;
        Console.WriteLine($"π的估计值: {piEstimate}");
    }
    
    private double ComplexCalculation(double input)
    {
        // 模拟复杂的科学计算
        return Math.Exp(-input * input) * Math.Sin(input);
    }
    
    private double[] GenerateLargeDataset(int size)
    {
        var data = new double[size];
        var random = new Random();
        
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
        {
            data[i] = random.NextDouble() * 10;
        }
        
        return data;
    }
}

    {
        int size = 1000000;
        float[] array1 = new float[size];
        float[] array2 = new float[size];
        float[] result = new float[size];
        
        // 初始化数据
        var random = new Random();
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
        {
            array1[i] = (float)random.NextDouble();
            array2[i] = (float)random.NextDouble();
        }
        
        // 使用SIMD向量化计算
        int vectorSize = Vector<float>.Count;
        int i = 0;
        
        for (; i <= size - vectorSize; i += vectorSize)
        {
            var vec1 = new Vector<float>(array1, i);
            var vec2 = new Vector<float>(array2, i);
            var vecResult = Vector.Multiply(vec1, vec2);
            vecResult.CopyTo(result, i);
        }
        
        // 处理剩余元素
        for (; i < size; i++)
        {
            result[i] = array1[i] * array2[i];
        }
        
        Console.WriteLine($"SIMD加速计算完成，向量大小: {vectorSize}");
    }
}

    public string SendCommand(string command)
    {
        _serialPort.WriteLine(command);
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100); // 等待设备响应
        
        return _serialPort.ReadExisting();
    }
    
    public double[] AcquireWaveform()
    {
        // 发送数据采集命令
        SendCommand("ACQuire:STATE ON");
        
        // 读取波形数据
        string waveformData = SendCommand("WAVeform:DATA?");
        
        // 解析数据（假设为逗号分隔的数值）
        return waveformData.Split(',')
                          .Select(double.Parse)
                          .ToArray();
    }
    
    public void CloseConnection()
    {
        _serialPort?.Close();
        _serialPort?.Dispose();
    }
}

4.2 GPIB仪器控制

using NationalInstruments.Visa;

public class GpibInstrument
{
    public void ControlPowerSupply()
    {
        // 使用VISA库控制GPIB设备
        using (var session = new ResourceManager().Open("GPIB0::12::INSTR"))
        {
            // 设置电源参数
            session.RawIO.Write("VOLT 5.0");
            session.RawIO.Write("CURR 1.0");
            session.RawIO.Write("OUTP ON");
            
            // 读取测量值
            session.RawIO.Write("MEAS:VOLT?");

        [LoadColumn(1)] public float Pressure;
        [LoadColumn(2)] public float Concentration;
        [LoadColumn(3)] public float ReactionRate;
    }
    
    public class PredictionResult
    {
        [ColumnName("Score")]
        public float ReactionRate;
    }
    
    public void TrainReactionModel()
    {
        var context = new MLContext();
        
        // 加载实验数据
        var data = context.Data.LoadFromTextFile<ExperimentData>(
            "experiment_data.csv", separatorChar: ',');
        
        // 数据预处理
        var pipeline = context.Transforms.Concatenate("Features", 
                    nameof(ExperimentData.Temperature),
                    nameof(ExperimentData.Pressure),
