Diploid genetic algorithms (DGAs) promise robustness as against simple genetic algorithms which only work towards optimization. Moreover, these algorithms outperform others in dynamic environments. The work examines the theoretical aspect of the concept by examining the existing literature. The present work takes the example of dynamic TSP to compare greedy approach, genetic algorithms and DGAs. The work also implements a greedy genetic approach for the problem. In the experiments carried out, the three variants of dominance were implemented and 115 runs proved the point that none of them outperforms the other. 相似文献
Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have become the part of various communication standards due to their excellent error correcting performance. Existing methods require matrix inverse computation for obtaining a systematic generator matrix from parity check matrix. With the change in code rate or code length the process is repeated and hence, a large number of pre-processing computations time and resources are required. In the existing methods, the complexity of encoding is essentially quadratic with respect to the block length. In this paper, it is shown that the parity check matrix can be constructed using patterned sub-matrix structure such that the matrix inverse operation is replaced by matrix multiplication of sparse matrices. The sparseness of matrices is then utilized to obtain efficient encoders which can achieve encoding in real time with reduced pre-computation complexity. Hardware implementation of encoder and simulation results show that the proposed encoder achieves throughput in excess of 1 Gbps with the same error correcting performance as the conventional designs. 相似文献
We show for the first time that self-exciting and self-sensing piezoelectric cantilevers consisting only of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) measure resonance only if they are asymmetrically anchored. Symmetric-anchoring did not give rise to electrically measurable bending resonant modes in the 0-100 kHz range. Sensitivity of first and second bending mode resonances was characterized in a flow apparatus using small density changes in liquid (0.003-0.01 g/cm3) and by dodecanethiol chemisorption at 30 pM. Density change results were consistent with existing models of submerged cantilevers, and yielded mass-change sensitivity of ∼33 ng/Hz and 217 pg/Hz for the first two modes. In chemisorption experiments, where binding was localized to 1 mm2 distal tip of the PZT cantilever, sensitivity improved by an order of magnitude to 2 pg/Hz and 414 fg/Hz for the same two resonant modes. 相似文献
Medical images are more typical than any other ordinary images, since it stores patient’s information for diagnosis purpose. Such images need more security and confidentiality as total diagnosis depends on it. In telemedicine applications, transmission of medical image via open channel, demands strong security and copyright protection. In our proposed robust watermarking model, a double layer security is introduced to ensure the robustness of embedded data. The embedded data is scrambled using a unique key and then a transform domain based hybrid watermarking technique is used to embed the scrambled data into the transform coefficients of the host image. The data embedding in medical images involves more attention, so that the diagnosis part must not be affected by any modification. Therefore, Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used as a classifier, which classify a medical image into two regions i.e. Non Region of Interest (NROI) and Region of Interest (ROI) to embed watermark data into the NROI part of the medical image, using the proposed embedding algorithm. The objective of the proposed model is to avoid any quality degradation to the medical image. The simulation is performed to measure the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) for imperceptibility and Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) to test the robustness. The experimented result shows, robustness and imperceptibility with SSIM of more than 0.50 and PSNR of more than 35 dB for proposed watermarking model.
Given a plant and a desired specification our goal is to construct a controller system which, when interconnected with the plant, yields a system that behaves like the desired specification. We can always construct the canonical controller introduced in van der Schaft (2003) [10]. For linear systems there exists a controller which when interconnected to the plant yields the desired behaviour if and only if the canonical controller is itself one such controller, see Vinjamoor and van der Schaft (2011) [4]. In this paper we extend this result to nonlinear systems. It turns out that one has to look at the canonical controller together with its subsystems. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a controller for a class of nonlinear systems. We end with examples which show that in certain cases looking at subsystems of the canonical controller also does not suffice. 相似文献
AbstractNanocomposites of diphenylalanine (FF) and carbon based materials provide an opportunity to overcome drawbacks associated with using FF micro- and nanostructures in nanobiotechnology applications, in particular their poor structural stability in liquid solutions. In this study, FF/graphene oxide (GO) composites were found to self-assemble into layered micro- and nanostructures, which exhibited improved thermal and aqueous stability. Dependent on the FF/GO ratio, the solubility of these structures was reduced to 35.65% after 30 min as compared to 92.4% for pure FF samples. Such functional nanocomposites may extend the use of FF structures to e.g. biosensing, electrochemical, electromechanical or electronic applications. 相似文献
The present experimental investigation deals with the transformation of waste plastic into oil in a pyrolysis reactor. A single feed at a rate of 8?kg yielded 675?ml of pyrolytic oil. The physiochemical properties of plastic oil (PO) were found to be within American Society for Testing and Material standards with higher kinematic viscosity and carbon residue. The GC-MS and Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis studies revealed the presence of 14 different compounds in PO. Straight diesel–PO blending was carried out at 15% and 30% in volume ratio. At full-load condition, in-cylinder pressure, rate of pressure rise, rate of heat release and peak pressure were higher for PO30% than straight diesel. The brake thermal efficiency for PO blends was found to be slightly higher than straight diesel with a significant increase in brake-specific fuel consumption. Unburned hydrocarbon (UBHC), CO NOx and smoke emission showed significant variation with PO blends. The physiochemical properties of PO blends significantly affect the engine performance. 相似文献
The laser induced etching of semi-insulating GaAs 〈100〉 is carried out to create porous structure under super- and sub-bandgap
photon illumination (h v). The etching mechanism is different for these separate illuminations where defect states play the key role in making distinction
between these two processes. Separate models are proposed for both the cases to explain the etching efficiency. It is observed
that under sub-bandgap photon illumination the etching process starts vigorously through the mediation of intermediate defect
states. The defect states initiate the pits formation and subsequently pore propagation occurs due to asymmetric electric
field in the pore. Formation of GaAs nanostructures is observed using scanning electron (SEM) and atomic force microscopy
(AFM). 相似文献
