Frequency domain analysis of the mirror-modified filtered-x least mean squares algorithm with low ambient noise

The mirror-modified filtered-x least mean squares (MMFxLMS ) algorithm is a variation of the FxLMS algorithm with online secondary path modeling that cannot diverge due to secondary path modeling errors. However, problems may occur when the ambient noise is not limited due to insufficient modeling power. This work shows that under a frequency domain analysis without ambient noise, the MMFxLMS algorithm is always stable, and expressions for the maximum residual noise level at any given time are obtained. It is also shown that, under the same context, convergence to the minimum residual noise is guaranteed. Still, convergence can be much slower for high secondary path modeling errors than that of the LMS or MFxLMS algorithms. Simulations confirm these results.     

Probabilistic learning on manifolds (PLoM) with partition

The probabilistic learning on manifolds (PLoM) introduced in 2016 has solved difficult supervised problems for the “small data” limit where the number N of points in the training set is small. Many extensions have since been proposed, making it possible to deal with increasingly complex cases. However, the performance limit has been observed and explained for applications for which N is very small and for which the dimension of the diffusion-map basis is close to N. For these cases, we propose a novel extension based on the introduction of a partition in independent random vectors. We take advantage of this development to present improvements of the PLoM such as a simplified algorithm for constructing the diffusion-map basis and a new mathematical result for quantifying the concentration of the probability measure in terms of a probability upper bound. The analysis of the efficiency of this extension is presented through two applications.     

基于节点1-邻居图相似性的社会网络匿名技术

利用传统的k匿名技术在社会网络中进行隐私保护时会存在聚类准则单一、图中数据信息利用不足等问题. 针对该问题, 提出了一种利用Kullback-Leibler (KL)散度衡量节点1-邻居图相似性的匿名技术(anonymization techniques for measuring the similarity of node 1-neighbor graph based on Kullback-Leibler divergence, SNKL). 根据节点1-邻居图分布的相似性对原始图节点集进行划分, 按照划分好的类进行图修改, 使修改后的图满足k匿名, 完成图的匿名发布. 实验结果表明, SNKL方法与HIGA方法相比在聚类系数上的改变量平均降低了17.3%, 同时生成的匿名图与原始图重要性节点重合度保持在95%以上. 所提方法在有效保证隐私的基础上, 可以显著的降低对原始图结构信息的改变.     

A Dijkstra-like method computing all extreme supported non-dominated solutions of the biobjective shortest path problem

We address the problem of determining all extreme supported solutions of the biobjective shortest path problem. A novel Dijkstra-like method generalizing Dijkstra׳s algorithm to this biobjective case is proposed. The algorithm runs in O(N(m+n log n)) time to solve one-to-one and one-to-all biobjective shortest path problems determining all extreme supported non-dominated points in the outcome space and one supported efficient path associated with each one of them. Here n is the number of nodes, m is the number of arcs and N is the number of extreme supported points in outcome space for the one-to-all biobjective shortest path problem. The memory space required by the algorithm is O(n+m) for the one-to-one problem and O(N+m) for the one-to-all problem. A computational experiment comparing the performance of the proposed methods and state-of-the-art methods is included.     

A multi-objective approach to optimal placement and sizing of multiple active power filters using a music-inspired algorithm

This paper proposes a new multi-objective framework for optimal placement and sizing of the active power filters (APFs) with satisfactory and acceptable standard levels. total harmonic distortion (THD) of voltage, harmonic transmission line loss (HTLL), motor load loss function (MLLF), and total APFs currents are the four objectives considered in the optimization, while harmonic distortions within standard level, and maximum allowable APF size, are modeled as constraints. The proposed model is one of non-convex optimization problem having a non-linear, mixed-integer nature. Since, a new modified harmony search algorithm (MHSA) is used and followed by a min–max technique in order to obtain the final optimal solution. The harmony search algorithm is a recently developed optimization algorithm, which imitates the music improvisation process. In this process, the Harmonists improvise their instrument pitches searching for the perfect state of harmony. The newly developed method has been applied on the IEEE 18-bus test system and IEEE 30-bus test system by different scenarios and cases to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method. The detailed results of the case studies are presented and thoroughly analyzed. The obtained results illustrate the sufficiency and profitableness of the newly developed method in the placement and sizing of the multiple active power filters, when compared with other methods.     

Standard color liquid crystal displays by a dimming technology

Dimming technologies have been used in liquid crystal display (LCD) products, especially for mobile applications, to reduce power consumption. It is widely known that dimming technologies tend to degrade the color accuracy. This article, however, presents that color performance of a dimmed LCD is better than a conventional one. We show a max method, one of dimming methods, converting an input digital data into higher values that have less color shift phenomenon. We propose how to compare the color performance of original and dimmed colors based on a modified standard. The average value of measured Δu′v′ of 25 dimmed colors was 0.0040, whereas that of the original colors was 0.0190. In addition, the average value of measured Δ of 25 dimmed colors was 2.40, whereas that of the original colors was 9.24. The measured results prove that the dimming technology can make LCD better in not only power consumption but also color performance. This article is the world's first report that breaks the usual stereotype on dimming technologies. This work proposes a dimmed LCD as a standard color display. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mixture semisupervised principal component regression model and soft sensor application

Traditionally, data‐based soft sensors are constructed upon the labeled historical dataset which contains equal numbers of input and output data samples. While it is easy to obtain input variables such as temperature, pressure, and flow rate in the chemical process, the output variables, which correspond to quality/key property variables, are much more difficult to obtain. Therefore, we may only have a small number of output data samples, and have much more input data samples. In this article, a mixture form of the semisupervised probabilistic principal component regression model is proposed for soft sensor application, which can efficiently incorporate the unlabeled data information from different operation modes. Compared to the total supervised method, both modeling efficiency and soft sensing performance are improved with the inclusion of additional unlabeled data samples. Two case studies are provided to evaluate the feasibility and efficiency of the new method. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J 60: 533–545, 2014
