Backtracking search optimization heuristics for nonlinear Hammerstein controlled auto regressive auto regressive systems

In this work, novel application of evolutionary computational heuristics is presented for parameter identification problem of nonlinear Hammerstein controlled auto regressive auto regressive (NHCARAR) systems through global search competency of backtracking search algorithm (BSA), differential evolution (DE) and genetic algorithms (GAs). The mean squared error metric is used for the fitness function of NHCARAR system based on difference between actual and approximated design variables. Optimization of the cost function is conducted with BSA for NHCARAR model by varying degrees of freedom and noise variances. To verify and validate the worth of the presented scheme, comparative studies are carried out with its counterparts DE and GAs through statistical observations by means of weight deviation factor, root of mean squared error, and Thiel’s inequality coefficient as well as complexity measures.     

结构化加权稀疏低秩恢复算法在人脸识别中的应用

针对训练样本或测试样本存在污损的情况，提出一种结构化加权稀疏低秩恢复算法（structured and weighted-sparse low rank representation，SWLRR）。SWLRR对低秩表示进行加权稀疏约束和结构化约束，使得低秩表示系数更加趋近于块对角结构，进而可获得具有判别性的低秩表示。SWLRR将训练样本恢复成干净训练样本后，再根据原始训练样本和恢复后的训练样本学习到低秩投影矩阵，把测试样本投影到相应的低秩子空间，即可有效地去除测试样本中的污损部分。在几个人脸数据库上的实验结果验证了SWLRR在不同情况下的有效性和鲁棒性。

干扰条件下的“北斗”信号解扩重构DOA估计

在干扰条件下，卫星导航抗干扰波束形成算法往往需要卫星信号波达方向（Direction-of-Arrival，DOA）的先验信息。但当存在低信噪比信号或主动干扰源时，常规的DOA估计算法性能急剧下降甚至失效。针对此问题，提出了一种被干扰信号压制的低信噪比“北斗”信号的DOA估计算法。该算法首先通过对接收信号进行子空间投影抑制干扰信号，然后对抑制干扰后的信号进行解扩重构处理，最后通过多重信号分类算法完成对“北斗”信号的DOA估计。仿真结果表明，在干扰信号干信比80 dB条件下，“北斗”信号DOA估计误差在5°以内，为下一步进行波束形成计算提供了高精度的入射角信息。     

Parameter Estimation for Incompressible Cake Filtration: Advantages of a Modified Fitting Method

There is a widely used linear strategy to determine the parameters specific cake resistance and filter medium resistance in incompressible cake filtration. In this article, it is intended to demonstrate that this strategy has some disadvantages and should be replaced by an alternative nonlinear approach which yields more exact results. Even though the gains in precision are small for most cases, the nonlinear strategy is favored because it involves no extra effort and is grounded in the same physical theory as the original approach. This claim is based on a broad simulation study using noisy data with known parameter values to compare both fitting strategies and judge their accuracies.     

基于DRGAN和支持向量机的合成孔径雷达图像目标识别

为解决SAR图像目标识别中样本缺乏和方位角敏感问题,提出了一种基于DRGAN和SVM的SAR图像目标识别算法。首先,采用多尺度分形特征对SAR图像进行增强,经过分割得到目标二值图像,基于Hu二阶矩估计目标的方位角。然后对估计得到的目标方位角进行量化编码,结合原始图像作为输入,对设计的DRGAN模型参数进行训练与优化。由于DRGAN中的深度生成模型将目标姿态与外观表示进行解耦设计,故可利用该模型将SAR图像样本变换到同一方位角区间。基于变换后的训练样本分别提取归一化灰度特征,利用SVM训练分类器。采用MSTAR数据集在多个不同操作条件下对提出的算法进行测试,实验结果表明,在带变体的标准操作条件下,能够达到97.97%的分类精度,优于部分基于CNN模型的分类精度,在4种扩展操作条件下的分类精度分别为97.83%,91.77%,97.11%和97.04%,均优于传统方法的分类精度。在SAR图像目标方位角估计存在一定误差的情况下,训练得到的GAN模型作为SAR图像目标旋转估计器,能够使得在不进行复杂样本预处理的前提下,仍然取得较高的SAR图像目标识别精度。     

Heat transfer inside a horizontal channel with an open trapezoidal enclosure subjected to a heat source of different lengths

The heat transfer phenomena inside a horizontal channel with an open trapezoidal enclosure subjected to a heat source of different lengths was investigated numerically in the present work. The heat source is considered as a local heating element of varying length, which is embedded at the bottom wall of the enclosure and maintained at a constant temperature. The air flow enters the channel horizontally at a constant cold temperature and a fixed velocity. The other walls of the enclosure and the channel are kept thermally insulated. The flow is assumed laminar, incompressible, and two‐dimensional, whereas the fluid is considered Newtonian. The results are presented in the form of the contours of velocity, isotherms, and Nusselt numbers profiles for various values of the dimensionless heat source lengths (0.16 ≤ ε ≤ 1). while, both Prandtl and Reynolds numbers are kept constant at (Pr = 0.71) and (Re = 100), respectively. The results indicated that the distribution of the isotherms depends significantly on the length of the heat source. Also, it was noted that both the local and the average Nusselt numbers increase as the local heat source length increases. Moreover, the maximum temperature is located near the heat source location.

Maximum likelihood-based adaptive differential evolution identification algorithm for multivariable systems in the state-space form

Parameter estimation plays an important role in the field of system control. This article is concerned with the parameter estimation methods for multivariable systems in the state-space form. For the sake of solving the identification complexity caused by a large number of parameters in multivariable systems, we decompose the original multivariable system into some subsystems containing fewer parameters and study identification algorithms to estimate the parameters of each subsystem. By taking the maximum likelihood criterion function as the fitness function of the differential evolution algorithm, we present a maximum likelihood-based differential evolution (ML-DE) algorithm for parameter estimation. To improve the parameter estimation accuracy, we introduce the adaptive mutation factor and the adaptive crossover factor into the ML-DE algorithm and propose a maximum likelihood-based adaptive differential evolution algorithm. The simulation study indicates the efficiency of the proposed algorithms.
