Predictive modeling of mercury speciation in combustion flue gases using GMDH-based abductive networks

Modeling mercury speciation is an important requirement for estimating harmful emissions from coal-fired power plants and developing strategies to reduce them. First-principle models based on chemical, kinetic, and thermodynamic aspects exist, but these are complex and difficult to develop. The use of modern data-based machine learning techniques has been recently introduced, including neural networks. Here we propose an alternative approach using abductive networks based on the group method of data handling (GMDH) algorithm, with the advantages of simplified and more automated model synthesis, automatic selection of significant inputs, and more transparent input–output model relationships. Models were developed for predicting three types of mercury speciation (elemental, oxidized, and particulate) using a small dataset containing six inputs parameters on the composition of the coal used and boiler operating conditions. Prediction performance compares favourably with neural network models developed using the same dataset, with correlation coefficients as high as 0.97 for training data. Network committees (ensembles) are proposed as a means of improving prediction accuracy, and suggestions are made for future work to further improve performance.     

利用双种群遗传算法进行数值试井自动拟合

遗传算法以随机化技术为指导，通过对整个解空间的高效搜索而得到全局最优解，当解空间较大时，常规遗传算法难以同时保证搜索速度和最优解的精度。针对这种缺陷提出了应用双种群遗传算法，即利用具有不同搜索策略的2个种群进行联合搜索，既保证了最优解的精度，又提高了搜索速度，将其应用于数值试井自动拟合解释，比常规遗传算法能节省50％以上的计算时间。     

Stereo and motion correspondences using nonlinear optimization method

This paper presents a new approach for using stereo and motion correspondences to solve the problem of tracking multiple independently moving features. In this approach, quantitative relational structure (QRS) is proposed as a framework for the integration of stereo–motion correspondences. The similarity function, tightly coupled to stereo and motion cues, is constructed on QRS, and then energy function E² consisting of the similarity function is defined. The tracking problem can be converted into the maximization problem of the energy function E². The stereo and motion correspondences that maximize E² are recovered by applying an extended graduated assignment algorithm. The relaxation labeling method is also presented for the comparison with the proposed method. Experimental results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.

Generation of adaptive gait patterns for quadruped robot with CPG network including motor dynamic model

This paper describes the generation of adaptive gait patterns using new Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) including motor dynamic models for a quadruped robot under various environments. The CPGs act as the flexible oscillators of the joints and adjust joint angles to required values. The CPGs are interconnected with each other and sets of their coupling parameters are adjusted by a genetic algorithm so that the quadruped robot can realize stable and adequate gait patterns. Generation of gait patterns results in the formation of the CPG networks suitable for the formation of not only a straight walking pattern but also of rotating gait patterns. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed CPG networks are effective for the automatic adjustment of the adaptive gait patterns for the tested quadruped robot under various environments. Furthermore, the target tracking control based on image processing is achieved by combining the general gait patterns. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

数值地形图的生成及其水文地貌特征评价

数值地形图(DEM)是利用地理信息系统(GIS)进行流域水文模拟的基础, 其精度直接影响模拟结果在没有现成的数值地形图时, 应用人员往往利用传统的地形图来生成它. 本文分别采用Arc/Info地理信息系统软件提供的哈奇逊法和不规则三角网五次插值法, 对一个实验流域的高程取样点进行插值, 生成了4种不同的数值地形图, 从凹洼分布、流域界定、河网提取、地面坡度和地形指数、以及地面径流汇成等方面, 对它们的水文地貌精度进行了比较. 结果表明, 两种方法都能生成由高程点群所反映的地形, 然而由于哈奇逊法能够结合流域的河网结构及其具有物理基础的水文地貌加强法来处理凹洼问题, 因此大大地提高了其所生成的流域数值地形图水文地貌特征精度.
