基于多基表示的滑动窗口椭圆曲线多标量乘算法

标量乘运算从整体上决定了椭圆曲线密码体制的快速实现效率，在一些椭圆曲线公钥密码体制中需要计算多标量乘。多基数链的标量表示长度更短、非零比特数目更少，较好地适用于椭圆曲线标量乘的快速计算。为了提高椭圆曲线密码的效率，在已有的二进制域和素域的标量乘算法的基础上，结合滑动窗口技术、多基算法，提出新的更高效的多标量乘算法。实验结果表明，新算法与传统Shamir算法和交错NAF算法相比，其所需的运算量更少，能有效地提高椭圆曲线多标量乘算法的效率，使多标量乘的运算更高效。相比于其他算法，新算法的计算效率比已有的多标量乘算法提高了约7.9%~20.6%。     

An adjusted K‐medoids clustering algorithm for effective stability in vehicular ad hoc networks

Recently, the routing problem in vehicular ad hoc networks is one of the most vital research. Despite the variety of the proposed approaches and the development of communications technologies, the routing problem in VANET suffers from the high speed of vehicles and the repetitive failures in communications. In this paper, we adjusted the well‐known K‐medoids clustering algorithm to improve the network stability and to increase the lifetime of all established links. First, the number of clusters and the initial cluster heads will not be selected randomly as usual, but based on mathematical formula considering the environment size and the available transmission ranges. Then the assignment of nodes to clusters in both k‐medoids phases will be carried out according to several metrics including direction, relative speed, and proximity. To the best of our knowledge, our proposed model is the first that introduces the new metric named “node disconnection frequency.” This metric prevents nodes with volatile and suspicious behavior to be elected as a new CH. This screening ensures that the new CH retains its property as long as possible and thus increases the network stability. Empirical results confirm that in addition to the convergence speed that characterizes our adjusted K‐medoids clustering algorithm (AKCA), the proposed model achieves more stability and robustness when compared with most recent approaches designed for the same objective.

为了提高转炉炼钢的终点命中率，建立了一种新的转炉终点预测模型，实现了对转炉终点碳质量分数和温度的准确预测。模型采用K最近邻孪生支持向量机(KNNWTSVR)算法，将权重矩阵引入到目标函数中，并利用鲸群优化算法进行求解，提高了传统算法的性能；然后基于某炼钢厂260 t转炉的实际生产数据，建立了转炉炼钢终点预测模型。结果表明，预测模型的终点碳质量分数(误差±0.005%)和温度(误差±15 ℃)的终点单命中率分别为94%和88%，双命中率达到84%。与其他两种现有的建模方法相比，本模型取得了最优的预测效果。该方法满足转炉炼钢实际生产的需求，也可适用于钢铁冶金其他领域的数学建模。     

A robust locating multi-optima approach for damage identification of plate-like structures

This paper proposes a robust optimization approach for multiple damage identification of plate-like structures. Different from traditional particle swarm optimizations (PSOs), a combined PSO and niche technique (NPSO) is proposed to solve multimodal optimization problems, with the full consideration of subswarm creation, merging and absorbing mechanism. As a hypersensitive parameter to damage, the curvature mode shape is adopted to construct the objective function. Case studies are conducted to investigate the effectiveness and robustness of the algorithm on multi-damage identification. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm exhibits robust search performance on identifying damage locations accurately with good convergence behavior. It is hoped that this study can provide guidance on robust damage detection, especially when the structure is subject to multiple damages and external disturbances.

Training visual attention in a naturalistic visual environment

The efficiency of training visual attention in the central and peripheral visual field was investigated by means of a visual detection task that was performed in a naturalistic visual environment including numerous, time-varying visual distractors. We investigated the minimum number of repetitions of the training required to obtain the top performance and whether intra-day training improved performance as efficiently as inter-day training. Additionally, our research aimed to find out whether exposure to a demanding task such as a microsurgical intervention may cancel out the effects of training.

Results showed that performance in visual attention peaked within three (for tasks in the central visual field) to seven (for tasks in the periphery) days subsequent to training. Intra-day training had no significant effect on performance. When attention training was administered after exposure to stress, improvement of attentional performance was more pronounced than when training was completed before the exposure. Our findings support the implementation of training in situ at work for more efficient results.

Practitioner Summary: Visual attention is important in an increasing number of workplaces, such as with surveillance, inspection, or driving. This study shows that it is possible to train visual attention efficiently within three to seven days. Because our study was executed in a naturalistic environment, training results are more likely to reflect the effects in the real workplace.

最优化算法与纯元素谱剥离相结合的能量色散X射线荧光谱解谱方法

在进行能量色散X射线荧光光谱(EDXRF)解谱时,如果给定样品的元素构成,采用纯元素谱图剥离的方式会更加合理,但由于每个元素的谱线都不止一条,如果仅仅针对主线对齐做剥离,会导致结果的严重失真,同时剥离次序对解谱结果有较大影响。介绍了一种最优化算法与纯元素谱剥离相结合的EDXRF解谱方法,该方法以多个纯元素谱的强度大小和峰位漂移道数作为变量构建残差方程,并用最优化计算的方法去调整,直至残差达到极小。实验采用强度顺序剥离、能量顺序剥离和最优化算法拟合3种方法分别对谱线重叠较为严重的La-Ce-Pr-Nd混合液样品的L系谱线进行了解析,结果表明最优化计算方法拟合的谱图与原始谱的残差 (1415.0)比另两种方法(166094.0和3192.7)大幅度缩小,拟合谱与原始谱更为吻合,并且方法在实现时对初值不敏感,解谱精度也不依赖于剥离次序。     

Two-level intelligent modeling method for the rate of penetration in complex geological drilling process

The rate of penetration (ROP) model is of great importance in achieving a high efficiency in the complex geological drilling process. In this paper, a novel two-level intelligent modeling method is proposed for the ROP considering the drilling characteristics of data incompleteness, couplings, and strong nonlinearities. Firstly, a piecewise cubic Hermite interpolation method is introduced to complete the lost drilling data. Then, a formation drillability (FD) fusion submodel is established by using Nadaboost extreme learning machine (Nadaboost-ELM) algorithm, and the mutual information method is used to obtain the parameters, strongly correlated with the ROP. Finally, a ROP submodel is established by a neural network with radial basis function optimized by the improved particle swarm optimization (RBFNN-IPSO). This two-level ROP model is applied to a real drilling process and the proposed method shows the best performance in ROP prediction as compared with conventional methods. The proposed ROP model provides the basis for intelligent optimization and control in the complex geological drilling process.
