In the current paper, we propose a new online search, fault detection, and fault location approach for short faults in network on chip communication channels. The approach proposed consists of a built-in self-test as well as a packet/flit comparings module embedded in the network adapter and a router, respectively. The approach is mainly characterized by the fact that, firstly, the diagnosis and location processes are simultaneously carried out after which the test time is minimized. Secondly, the approach updates the NoC routing tables far less costly in a parallel fashion. Thirdly, insignificant hardware is added to the system. The high scalability in the approach, in addition, leads to 100% test coverage, 71.4% capability of detecting faulty channels, and 100% detected faults location in one round (two phases). The simulation results show that the approach hardware is optimized compared with the previous methodologies. 相似文献
This paper presents a novel learning approach for Face Recognition by introducing Optimal Local Basis. Optimal local bases
are a set of basis derived by reinforcement learning to represent the face space locally. The reinforcement signal is designed
to be correlated to the recognition accuracy. The optimal local bases are derived then by finding the most discriminant features
for different parts of the face space, which represents either different individuals or different expressions, orientations,
poses, illuminations, and other variants of the same individual. Therefore, unlike most of the existing approaches that solve
the recognition problem by using a single basis for all individuals, our proposed method benefits from local information by
incorporating different bases for its decision. We also introduce a novel classification scheme that uses reinforcement signal
to build a similarity measure in a non-metric space.
Experiments on AR, PIE, ORL and YALE databases indicate that the proposed method facilitates robust face recognition under
pose, illumination and expression variations. The performance of our method is compared with that of Eigenface, Fisherface,
Subclass Discriminant Analysis, and Random Subspace LDA methods as well. 相似文献

Clustering is a popular data analysis and data mining technique. A popular technique for clustering is based on k-means such that the data is partitioned into K clusters. However, the k-means algorithm highly depends on the initial state and converges to local optimum solution. This paper presents a new hybrid evolutionary algorithm to solve nonlinear partitional clustering problem. The proposed hybrid evolutionary algorithm is the combination of FAPSO (fuzzy adaptive particle swarm optimization), ACO (ant colony optimization) and k-means algorithms, called FAPSO-ACO–K, which can find better cluster partition. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated through several benchmark data sets. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than other algorithms such as PSO, ACO, simulated annealing (SA), combination of PSO and SA (PSO–SA), combination of ACO and SA (ACO–SA), combination of PSO and ACO (PSO–ACO), genetic algorithm (GA), Tabu search (TS), honey bee mating optimization (HBMO) and k-means for partitional clustering problem. 相似文献
Spectrum-based fault localization (SFL) techniques have shown considerable effectiveness in localizing software faults. They leverage a ranking metric to automatically assign suspiciousness scores to certain entities in a given faulty program. However, for some programs, the current SFL ranking metrics lose effectiveness. In this paper, we introduce ConsilientSFL that is served to synthesize a new ranking metric for a given program, based on a customized combination of a set of given ranking metrics. ConsilientSFL can be significant since it demonstrates the usage of voting systems into a software engineering task. First, several mutated, faulty versions are generated for a program. Then, the mutated versions are executed with the test data. Next, the effectiveness of each existing ranking metric is computed for each mutated version. After that, for each mutated version, the computed existing metrics are ranked using a preferential voting system. Consequently, several top metrics are chosen based on their ranks across all mutated versions. Finally, the chosen ranking metrics are normalized and synthesized, yielding a new ranking metric. To evaluate ConsilientSFL, we have conducted experiments on 27 subject programs from Code4Bench and Siemens benchmarks. In the experiments, we found that ConsilientSFL outperformed every single ranking metric. In particular, for all programs on average, we have found performance measures recall, precision, f-measure, and percentage of code inspection, to be nearly 7, 9, 12, and 5 percentages larger than using single metrics, respectively. The impact of this work is twofold. First, it can mitigate the issue with the choice and usage of a proper ranking metric for the faulty program at hand. Second, it can help debuggers find more faults with less time and effort, yielding higher quality software.
In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach using genetic algorithm and neural networks to classify Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic in IP networks. We first compute the minimum classification error (MCE) matrix using genetic algorithm. The MCE matrix is then used during the pre-processing step to map the original dataset into a new space. The mapped data set is then fed to three different classifiers: distance-based, K-Nearest Neighbors, and neural networks classifiers. We measure three different indexes, namely mutual information, Dunn, and SD to evaluate the extent of separation of the data points before and after mapping is performed. The experimental results demonstrate that with the proposed mapping scheme we achieve, on average, 8% higher accuracy in classification of the P2P traffic compare to the previous solutions. Moreover, the genetic-based MCE matrix increases the classification accuracy more than what the basic MCE does. 相似文献
A strategy for improving speed of the previously proposed evolving neuro-fuzzy model (ENFM) is presented in this paper to make it more appropriate for online applications. By considering a recursive extension of Gath?CGeva clustering, the ENFM takes advantage of elliptical clusters for defining validity region of its neurons which leads to better modeling with less number of neurons. But this necessitates the computing of reverse and determinant of the covariance matrices which are time consuming in online applications with large number of input variables. In this paper a strategy for recursive estimation of singular value decomposition components of covariance matrices is proposed which converts the burdensome computations to calculating reverse and determinant of a diagonal matrix while keeping the advantages of elliptical clusters. The proposed method is applied to online detection of epileptic seizures in addition to prediction of Mackey?CGlass time series and modeling a time varying heat exchanger. Simulation results show that required time for training and test of fast ENFM is far less than its basic model. Moreover its modeling ability is similar to the ENFM which is superior to other online modeling approaches. 相似文献
The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) has been thoroughly studied in the last decades. However, the main focus has been on the deterministic version where customer demands are fixed and known in advance. Uncertainty in demand has not received enough consideration. When demands are uncertain, several problems arise in the VRP. For example, there might be unmet customers’ demands, which eventually lead to profit loss. A reliable plan and set of routes, after solving the VRP, can significantly reduce the unmet demand costs, helping in obtaining customer satisfaction. This paper investigates a variant of an uncertain VRP in which the customers’ demands are supposed to be uncertain with unknown distributions. An advanced Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm has been proposed to solve such a VRP. A novel decoding scheme has also been developed to increase the PSO efficiency. Comprehensive computational experiments, along with comparisons with other existing algorithms, have been provided to validate the proposed algorithms. 相似文献
