A recurrent neural network for solving a class of general variational inequalities.

This paper presents a recurrent neural-network model for solving a special class of general variational inequalities (GVIs), which includes classical VIs as special cases. It is proved that the proposed neural network (NN) for solving this class of GVIs can be globally convergent, globally asymptotically stable, and globally exponentially stable under different conditions. The proposed NN can be viewed as a modified version of the general projection NN existing in the literature. Several numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and performance of the proposed NN.     

Kernel-based least squares policy iteration for reinforcement learning.

In this paper, we present a kernel-based least squares policy iteration (KLSPI) algorithm for reinforcement learning (RL) in large or continuous state spaces, which can be used to realize adaptive feedback control of uncertain dynamic systems. By using KLSPI, near-optimal control policies can be obtained without much a priori knowledge on dynamic models of control plants. In KLSPI, Mercer kernels are used in the policy evaluation of a policy iteration process, where a new kernel-based least squares temporal-difference algorithm called KLSTD-Q is proposed for efficient policy evaluation. To keep the sparsity and improve the generalization ability of KLSTD-Q solutions, a kernel sparsification procedure based on approximate linear dependency (ALD) is performed. Compared to the previous works on approximate RL methods, KLSPI makes two progresses to eliminate the main difficulties of existing results. One is the better convergence and (near) optimality guarantee by using the KLSTD-Q algorithm for policy evaluation with high precision. The other is the automatic feature selection using the ALD-based kernel sparsification. Therefore, the KLSPI algorithm provides a general RL method with generalization performance and convergence guarantee for large-scale Markov decision problems (MDPs). Experimental results on a typical RL task for a stochastic chain problem demonstrate that KLSPI can consistently achieve better learning efficiency and policy quality than the previous least squares policy iteration (LSPI) algorithm. Furthermore, the KLSPI method was also evaluated on two nonlinear feedback control problems, including a ship heading control problem and the swing up control of a double-link underactuated pendulum called acrobot. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed method can optimize controller performance using little a priori information of uncertain dynamic systems. It is also demonstrated that KLSPI can be applied to online learning control by incorporating an initial controller to ensure online performance.

On the Hertzian fatigue cone crack propagation in ceramics

The Hertzian cone crack initiation and propagation in ceramics under cyclic fatigue loading with a spherical indenter is studied. Unlike the so-called quasi-static Hertzian cone crack, the fatigue Hertzian cone crack propagation eliminates the dynamic effect on unstable crack propagation. As such, the crack is found to propagate following the path of pure mode I type. We use an elasticity approach, a finite element analysis, and an empirical analysis to investigate the Hertzian cone crack in three stages: crack initiation, crack propagation, and crack kinking. The mechanism of the multiple concentric cone cracks is also explained. The purpose is to understand and predict the behavior of the formation of the Hertzian fatigue cone crack using available modeling tools.Zheng Chen is currently with Space Power Institute, Auburn University.

V beta specificity of superantigen TSST-1 plus CD28 costimulation without APCs

Little has so far been known about the role of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) in the activation of T cells by superantigens. Recently several studies showed that superantigens could directly activate purified T cells in the presence of CD28 costimulation. Here we investigate V beta expression of T cells activated by the superantigen toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1), plus CD28 costimulation, in the absence of APCs. The aim of this study was to ask if TSST-1 activated purified T cells in the presence of CD28 costimulation with the same specificity as in the presence of APCs. We provide evidence that the specificity of TSST-1 to human V beta, in the presence of CD28 costimulation, is identical to that in the presence of APCs, with V beta 2 being significantly expanded. The results indicate that the main role of APCs in the superantigen-mediated T cell activation may be to provide T cells with CD28 costimulation.
