遗传算法和模矢法结合的概率积分法参数反演方法

遗传算法在反演概率积分法预计参数时从参数取值范围内的串集开始搜索,并使用弹性策略来维持群体的多样性,使得算法可以跨过局部收敛的障碍,向全局最优解方向进化;但这种概率化的寻优算法存在局部探索能力差、结果不稳定的缺陷,只能获得问题的近似最优解。模矢法是一种降梯度算法,算法局部探索能力强、收敛快;但这种算法对初值选取敏感,初值选择不当易陷入局部极值。本文提出并实现了一种模矢法与遗传算法结合的组合算法:先使用遗传算法求得参数的全局近似最优解,然后将近似最优解作为探索初值,使用模矢法获得参数的稳定、精确最优解。研究结果表明:组合算法反演概率积分法预计参数的精确度高、收敛快、稳定性好,综合性能较遗传算法和模矢法有明显优势。     

部分传输序列的遗传模拟退火搜索方法

在正交频分复用(OFDM)系统中,基于遗传算法的部分传输序列(GA-PTS)技术有效地降低了 PTS 的计算复杂度,但在 改进峰值-平均功率比(PAPR)性能方面却并不理想。 为此,提出在遗传算法中嵌入模拟退火(SA)算子从而构造一种混合的遗 传模拟退火(GSA)算法,并把它应用于对 PTS 的最优相位因子进行搜索。 首先,通过对 PTS 相位因子编码形成染色体,采用随 机元素组成的染色体作为遗传算法的初始群体,并评估每个染色体的适应度值。 然后,根据适应度值选择染色体,建立染色体 的变异规则和交叉规则,对群体进行迭代进化。 最后,群体中的染色体利用退火温度进行更新,从而产生出新的下一代种群。 仿真结果说明,与 GA-PTS 方案相比,该方法不仅能降低计算负担,而且能够有效地降低 OFDM 系统 PAPR 值。

Genetic (co-)variation of methane emissions,efficiency, and production traits in Danish Holstein cattle along and across lactations

Methane emissions in ruminant livestock has become a hot topic, given the pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions drastically in the European Union over the next 10 to 30 yr. During the 2021 United Nations Climate Change conference, countries also made collective commitments to curb methane emissions by 2050. Genetic selection for low-methane-emitting animals, particularly dairy cows, is one possible strategy for mitigation. However, it is essential to understand how methane emissions in lactating animals vary along lactation and across lactations. This understanding is useful when making decisions for future phenotyping strategies, such as the frequency and duration of phenotyping within and across lactations. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to estimate (1) genetic parameters for 2 methane traits: methane concentration (MeC) and methane production (MeP) at 2 parity levels in Danish Holstein cows across the entire lactation using random regression models; (2) genetic correlations within and between methane traits across the entire lactation; and (3) genetic correlations between the methane traits and economically important traits throughout first lactation. Methane concentration (n = 19,639) records of 575 Danish Holstein cows from a research farm measured between 2013 and 2020 were available. Subsequently, CH₄ production in grams/day (MeP; n = 13,866) was calculated; MeP and MeC for first and second lactation (L1 and L2) were analyzed as separate traits: MeC_L1, MeP_L1, MeC_L2, and MeP_L2. Heritabilities, variance components, and genetic correlations within and between the 4 CH₄ traits were estimated using random regression models with Legendre polynomials. The additive genetic and permanent environmental effects were modeled using second-order Legendre polynomial for lactation weeks. Estimated heritabilities for MeP_L1 ranged between 0.11 and 0.49, for MeC_L1 between 0.10 and 0.28, for MeP_L2 between 0.14 and 0.36, and for MeC_L2 between 0.13 and 0.29. In general, heritability estimates of MeC traits were lower and more stable throughout lactation and were similar between lactations compared with MeP. Genetic correlations (within trait) at different lactation weeks were generally highly positive (0.7) for most of the first lactation, except for the correlation of early lactation (<10 wk) with late lactation (>40 wk) where the correlation was the lowest (<0.5). Genetic correlations between methane traits were moderate to highly correlated during early and mid lactation. Finally, MeP_L1 has stronger genetic correlations with energy-corrected milk and dry matter intake compared with MeC_L1. In conclusion, both traits are different along (and across) lactation(s) and they correlated differently with production, maintenance, and intake traits, which is important to consider when including one of them in a future breeding objective.

Experimental and optimization of material synthesis process parameters for improving capacity of lithium‐ion battery

New methods for synthesis of active materials have been developed to improve capacity and cycle life performance of lithium‐ion batteries. Past studies have focused on routes of development of materials and new processes, which might not be economical for large‐scale production. In this regard, this study examines a widely employed carbothermal reduction technology for the synthesis of lithium‐iron phosphate (LiFePO₄/C) and investigates effects of process conditions during this synthesis on final battery performance. An experimental combined genetic programming approach is used to model the effects of crucial process conditions (sintering time, the carbon content, and the sintering temperature) on the discharge capacity of the assembled battery. Experiments are conducted to collect the discharge capacity data based on varying LiFePO₄/C synthesis conditions, and genetic programming is employed to develop a suitable functional relationship between them. The results show that the battery discharge capacity is controlled significantly by adjusting sintering temperature and carbon content, while the effect of sintering time is found to be insignificant. Further, the interaction effect of the sintering time and carbon content is much more obvious than that of the sintering time and the sintering temperature. The findings from the study pave the way for the optimum design of the synthesis process of LiFePO₄/C for a higher battery performance.     

Recovery of Collided RFID Tags With Frequency Drift on Physical Layer

In a passive ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio frequency identification (RFID) system, the recovery of collided tag signals on a physical layer can enhance identification efficiency. However, frequency drift is very common in UHF RFID systems, and will have an influence on the recovery on the physical layer. To address the problem of recovery with the frequency drift, this paper adopts a radial basis function (RBF) network to separate the collision signals, and decode the signals via FM0 to recovery collided RFID tags. Numerical results show that the method in this paper has better performance of symbol error rate (SER) and separation efficiency compared to conventional methods when frequency drift occurs.      

Estimation of power density in IMPATT using different materials

ABSTRACT

The RF output power dissipated per unit area is calculated using Runge-Kutta method for the high-moderate-moderate-high (n⁺-n-p-p⁺) doping profile of double drift region (DDR)-based impact avalanche transit time (IMPATT) diode by taking different substrate at Ka band. Those substrates are silicon, gallium arsenide, germanium, wurtzite gallium nitride, indium phosphide and 4H-silicon carbide. A comparative study regarding power dissipation ability by the IMPATT using different material is being presented thereby modelling the DDR IMPATT diode in a one-dimensional structure. The IMPATT based on 4H-SiC element has highest power density in the order of 10¹⁰ Wm^?2 and the Si-based counterpart has lowest power density of order 10⁶ Wm^?2 throughout the Ka band. So, 4H-SiC-based IMPATT should be preferable over others for the power density preference based application. This result will be helpful to estimate the power density of the IMPATT for any doping profile and to select the proper element for the optimum design of the IMPATT as far as power density is concerned in the Ka band. Also, we have focused on variation of power density with different junction temperatures and modelled the heat sink with analysis of thermal resistances.

Candidate Gene Discovery in Hereditary Colorectal Cancer and Polyposis Syndromes–Considerations for Future Studies

To discover novel high-penetrant risk loci for hereditary colorectal cancer (hCRC) and polyposis syndromes many whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing (WES/WGS) studies have been performed. Remarkably, these studies resulted in only a few novel high-penetrant risk genes. Given this observation, the possibility and strategy to identify high-penetrant risk genes for hCRC and polyposis needs reconsideration. Therefore, we reviewed the study design of WES/WGS-based hCRC and polyposis gene discovery studies (n = 37) and provide recommendations to optimize discovery and validation strategies. The group of genetically unresolved patients is phenotypically heterogeneous, and likely composed of distinct molecular subtypes. This knowledge advocates for the screening of a homogeneous, stringently preselected discovery cohort and obtaining multi-level evidence for variant pathogenicity. This evidence can be collected by characterizing the molecular landscape of tumors from individuals with the same affected gene or by functional validation in cell-based models. Together, the combined approach of a phenotype-driven, tumor-based candidate gene search might elucidate the potential contribution of novel genetic predispositions in genetically unresolved hCRC and polyposis.
