Performance Analysis of Gradient Neural Network Exploited for Online Time-Varying Matrix Inversion

This technical note presents theoretical analysis and simulation results on the performance of a classic gradient neural network (GNN), which was designed originally for constant matrix inversion but is now exploited for time-varying matrix inversion. Compared to the constant matrix-inversion case, the gradient neural network inverting a time-varying matrix could only approximately approach its time-varying theoretical inverse, instead of converging exactly. In other words, the steady-state error between the GNN solution and the theoretical/exact inverse does not vanish to zero. In this technical note, the upper bound of such an error is estimated firstly. The global exponential convergence rate is then analyzed for such a Hopfield-type neural network when approaching the bound error. Computer-simulation results finally substantiate the performance analysis of this gradient neural network exploited to invert online time-varying matrices.     

GSSAC:一种用于遥感影像配准的误匹配点检测方法*

遥感影像配准中,由于光照、成像角度、几何变形等因素的影响,无论采用何种配准方法,总会产生误匹配点,因此误匹配点检测也是一个非常重要的步骤。针对常用RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus)方法不稳定、无法准确检测分布不均匀匹配点的缺点,提出了分组排序采样一致性(Group Sorted Sample Consensus, GSSAC)方法来提高误匹配点检测的稳定性和精度。分组排序采样方法首先将匹配点分为若干组,在每组内计算匹配点的误差并排序,然后在每组中分别采样若干个匹配点组成估算模型参数需要的匹配点。实验结果表明,GSSAC方法可以稳定的获得高精度的检测结果。     

Fault diagnosis of nonlinear and large-scale processes using novel modified kernel Fisher discriminant analysis approach

It is pretty significant for fault diagnosis timely and accurately to improve the dependability of industrial processes. In this study, fault diagnosis of nonlinear and large-scale processes by variable-weighted kernel Fisher discriminant analysis (KFDA) based on improved biogeography-based optimisation (IBBO) is proposed, referred to as IBBO-KFDA, where IBBO is used to determine the parameters of variable-weighted KFDA, and variable-weighted KFDA is used to solve the multi-classification overlapping problem. The main contributions of this work are four-fold to further improve the performance of KFDA for fault diagnosis. First, a nonlinear fault diagnosis approach with variable-weighted KFDA is developed for maximising separation between the overlapping fault samples. Second, kernel parameters and features selection of variable-weighted KFDA are simultaneously optimised using IBBO. Finally, a single fitness function that combines erroneous diagnosis rate with feature cost is created, a novel mixed kernel function is introduced to improve the classification capability in the feature space and diagnosis accuracy of the IBBO-KFDA, and serves as the target function in the optimisation problem. Moreover, an IBBO approach is developed to obtain the better quality of solution and faster convergence speed. On the one hand, the proposed IBBO-KFDA method is first used on Tennessee Eastman process benchmark data sets to validate the feasibility and efficiency. On the other hand, IBBO-KFDA is applied to diagnose faults of automation gauge control system. Simulation results demonstrate that IBBO-KFDA can obtain better kernel parameters and feature vectors with a lower computing cost, higher diagnosis accuracy and a better real-time capacity.

On Chaotic Neural Network Design: A New Framework

The theory of chaos and chaotic neural networks (CNNs) has been widely investigated in the past two decades. However, most researchers in this area have merely focused on how to make full use of CNNs to solve various problems in areas such as pattern recognition, classification, associate memory and cryptography. The philosophy of how to design a CNN is seldom discussed. In this paper, we present a general methodology for designing CNNs. By appropriately choosing a self-feedback mechanism, and also including coupling functions and an external stimulus, we have succeeded in proving that a dynamical system, defined by discrete time feedback equations, does, indeed, possess interesting chaotic properties. To the best of our knowledge, the results presented here are novel and pioneering.     

Continuous-variable quantum homomorphic signature

Quantum cryptography is believed to be unconditionally secure because its security is ensured by physical laws rather than computational complexity. According to spectrum characteristic, quantum information can be classified into two categories, namely discrete variables and continuous variables. Continuous-variable quantum protocols have gained much attention for their ability to transmit more information with lower cost. To verify the identities of different data sources in a quantum network, we propose a continuous-variable quantum homomorphic signature scheme. It is based on continuous-variable entanglement swapping and provides additive and subtractive homomorphism. Security analysis shows the proposed scheme is secure against replay, forgery and repudiation. Even under nonideal conditions, it supports effective verification within a certain verification threshold.
