Stochastic consensus control with finite frequency specification for Markov jump networks

A stochastic finite frequency consensus protocol for directed networks with Markov jump topologies and external disturbances is proposed in this paper. By introducing the frequency band information into consensus control design, the disagreement dynamics of interconnected networks asymptotically converge to zero with an improved level of disturbance attenuation in the specific frequency band. In addition, the new model transformation approach is presented by exploring certain features of Laplacian matrix in real Jordan form, which leads to more generality of the designed protocol. A numerical example validates the potential of the developed results. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A Train Dispatching Model Under a Stochastic Environment: Stable Train Routing Constraints and Reformulation

After major capacity breakdown(s) on a railway network, train dispatchers need to generate appropriate dispatching plans to recover the impacted train schedule from perturbations and minimize the expected total train delay time under stochastic scenarios. In this paper, we propose a cumulative flow variables-based integer programming model for dispatching trains under a stochastic environment on a general railway network. Stable Train Routing (STR) constraints are introduced to ensure that trains traverse on the same route across different capacity breakdown scenarios, which are further reformulated to equivalent linear inequality constraints. Track occupancy and safety headways are modelled as side constraints which are dualized through a proposed Lagrangian relaxation solution framework. The original complex train dispatching problem is then decomposed to a set of single-train and single-scenario optimization subproblems. For each subproblem, a standard label correcting algorithm is embedded for finding the time dependent least cost path on a space-time network. The resulting dual solutions can be transformed to feasible solutions through priority rules. Numerical experiments are conducted to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed solution approach.

Premedication with oral midazolam in children--an assessment of psychomotor function, anxiolysis, sedation and pharmacokinetics

We studied 30 children, aged 4 to 12 years, undergoing elective circumcision, premedicated with midazolam 0.5 mg.kg-1 and atropine 0.02 mg.kg-1 by mouth. A modified postbox test and the coding component of the Wechsler intelligence scale (WISC-R) was used to assess the preoperative effect of premedication on psychomotor function. Mood and sedation were also scored and related to serum midazolam concentrations. The children showed a significant decline in psychomotor performance 30 and 60 minutes after premedication when compared with their best unmedicated performance recorded the previous evening. This decline in psychomotor performance was only weakly associated with serum midazolam concentrations (r = 0.1). The postbox toy ratio is a suitable measurement of psychomotor performance in children because of its simplicity and ease of use in the clinical environment, although it may suffer the "test-retest" limitations of similar types of assessment. The sedative and anxiolytic effects of midazolam provide a quiet environment for a smooth induction of anaesthesia.

Data augmentation for low-resource languages NMT guided by constrained sampling

Data augmentation (DA) is a ubiquitous approach for several text generation tasks. Intuitively, in the machine translation paradigm, especially in low-resource languages scenario, many DA methods have appeared. The most commonly used methods are building pseudocorpus by randomly sampling, omitting, or replacing some words in the text. However, previous approaches hardly guarantee the quality of augmented data. In this study, we try to augment the corpus by introducing a constrained sampling method. Additionally, we also build the evaluation framework to select higher quality data after augmentation. Namely, we use the discriminator submodel to mitigate syntactic and semantic errors to some extent. Experimental results show that our augmentation method consistently outperforms all the previous state-of-the-art methods on both small and large-scale corpora in eight language pairs from four corpora by 2.38–4.18 bilingual evaluation understudy points.
