Novel associative classifier based on dynamic adaptive PSO: Application to determining candidates for thoracic surgery

Association rule mining is a data mining technique for discovering useful and novel patterns or relationships from databases. These rules are simple to infer and intuitive and can be easily used for classification in any domain that requires explanation for and investigation into how the classification works. Examples of such areas are medicine, agriculture, education, etc. For such a system to find wide adoptability, it should give output that is correct and comprehensible. The amount of data has been growing very fast and so has the search space of these problems. So we need to change traditional methods. This paper discusses a rule mining classifier called DA-AC (dynamic adaptive-associative classifier) which is based on a Dynamic Particle Swarm Optimizer. Due to its seeding method, exemplar selection, adaptive parameters, dynamic reconstruction of regions and velocity update, it avoids premature convergence and provides a better value in every dimension. Quality evaluation is done both for individual rules as well as entire rulesets. Experiments were conducted over fifteen benchmark datasets to evaluate performance of proposed algorithm in comparison with six other state-of-the-art non associative classifiers and eight associative classifiers. Results demonstrate competitive performance of proposed DA-AC while considering predictive accuracy and number of mined patterns as parameters. The method was then applied to predict life expectancy of post operative thoracic surgery patients.

体导电信道分析与研究

为了降低植入器件的功耗和有效控制植入器件,提高通信效率,提出了一种基于体导电的低功耗数字通信模型。当体导电流的工作频率在kHz级,生物背景信号干扰是微不足道的,体导电信道可近似为加性高斯白噪声信道。从香农信息论出发,推导出二维凋制下的信道容量公式,从而得到推论：在极低信噪比时采用两电平调制就能相当有效地利用信道容量,在高信噪比时,为了充分利用信道容量必须采用多电平调制。利用SystemView对信道进行仿真,证明体导电数字通信的可行性,并得出采取调制方式的必要性,以及误码率和信噪比的关系。     

适应性粒子群寻优算法Ⅱ

适应性粒子群寻优算法Ⅰ(APSO-Ⅰ)是在有序的决策中始终引入随机的、不可预测的决定.为解决APSO-Ⅰ算法收敛深度不够的问题,提出适应性粒子群寻优第Ⅱ代算法(APSO-Ⅱ).APSO-ⅡⅢ算法是将有序(标准PSO粒子群寻优)和无序(自适应寻优)进行适当的分离.以发挥各自的优势.在自适应寻优阶段,通过在最优柱子邻域空间探寻更优化的解.一但新的优化解被发掘,便利用标准PSO快速寻优.典型复杂函数优化的仿真结果表明,APSO-Ⅱ在收敛速度和收敛深度上均优于DPSO(耗散型PSO),HPSO(自适应层次PSO),EPSO(自适应逃逸PSO)和APSO-I.

典型工业粉尘地区复合绝缘子污秽成分及其闪络特性

近年来,盐城德隆镍业厂区附近数次发生输电线路外绝缘放电、污闪现象,且采用复合绝缘子后仍不能得到有效抑制,而临近的化工区却没无该情况发生。因此,本文对盐城电网辖区内镍厂、化工厂绝缘子进行污秽取样,开展了污秽化学成分分析测试,包括阴阳离子含量、不溶物元素组成、主要化合物成分等;继而基于成分分析结果,开展了混合污秽下的污闪特性试验,得到了不同污染源典型污秽成分下复合绝缘子的闪络特性。研究结果表明：化工厂和镍厂附近绝缘子污秽成分有一定的差异,体现在镍厂污秽成分含硝酸盐较多,而化工厂附近含氯盐较多;对于一大两小型复合绝缘子,其在镍厂典型污秽下的闪络梯度要比化工厂低5%-10%;对于重工业粉尘地区的外绝缘配置,建议采用一大一小型绝缘子来提高电气强度。     

Fuzzy image fusion based on modified Self-Generating Neural Network

A new fusion algorithm for multi-sensor images based on Self-Generating Neural Network (SGNN) and fuzzy logic is proposed in this paper. This study is an extension of the work described in Qin and Bao (2005). First, the order and frequency modifications for the current McKusick and Langley (M–L) optimization are proposed; next, by combining optimization and pruning together, the Pruning-And-One-Optimization-Composite (PAOOC) processing method is raised; and finally, a modified fuzzy fusion scheme using improved SGNN is put forward. Experimental results demonstrate that the posed fuzzy fusion scheme outperforms region-based fusion using wavelet multi-resolution (MR) segmentation, and region-based fusion using tree-structure wavelet MR segmentation, both in visual effect and objective evaluation criteria. In the meantime, simulations also show the effectiveness of our modifications for the current optimization and pruning methods, visually and objectively.     

Boundary finding based multi-focus image fusion through multi-scale morphological focus-measure

Multi-focus image fusion aims to extract the focused regions from multiple partially focused images of the same scene and then combine them together to produce a completely focused image. Detecting the focused regions from multiple images is key for multi-focus image fusion. In this paper, we propose a novel boundary finding based multi-focus image fusion algorithm, in which the task of detecting the focused regions is treated as finding the boundaries between the focused and defocused regions from the source images. According to the found boundaries, the source images could be naturally separated into regions with the same focus conditions, i.e., each region is fully focused or defocused. Then, the focused regions can be found out by selecting the regions with greater focus-measures from each pair of regions. To improve the precision of boundary detection and focused region detection, we also present a multi-scale morphological focus-measure, effectiveness of which has been verified by using some quantitative evaluations. Different from the general multi-focus image fusion algorithms, our algorithm fuses the boundary regions and non-boundary regions of the source images respectively, which helps produce a fusion image with good visual quality. Moreover, the experimental results validate that the proposed algorithm outperforms some state-of-the-art image fusion algorithms in both qualitative and quantitative evaluations.

Strategy of fast and light-load cloud-based proactive benign worm countermeasure technology to contain worm propagation

Benign worms have been attracting wide attention in the field of worm research due to the proactive defense against the worm propagation and patch for the susceptible hosts. In this paper, two revised Worm?CAnti-Worm (WAW) models are proposed for cloud-based benign worm countermeasure. These Re-WAW models are based on the law of worm propagation and the two-factor model. One is the cloud-based benign Re-WAW model to achieve effective worm containment. Another is the two-stage Re-WAW propagation model, which uses proactive and passive switching defending strategy based on the ratio of benign worms to malicious worms. This model intends to avoid the network congestion and other potential risks caused by the proactive scan of benign worms. Simulation results show that the cloud-based Re-WAW model significantly improves the worm propagation containment effect. The cloud computing technology enables rapid delivery of massive initial benign worms, and the two stage Re-WAW model gradually clears off the benign worms with the containment of the malicious worms.
