Gradient based hyper-parameter optimisation for well conditioned kriging metamodels

In this work a two step approach to efficiently carrying out hyper parameter optimisation, required for building kriging and gradient enhanced kriging metamodels, is presented. The suggested approach makes use of an initial line search along the hyper-diagonal of the design space in order to find a suitable starting point for a subsequent gradient based optimisation algorithm. During the optimisation an upper bound constraint is imposed on the condition number of the correlation matrix in order to keep it from being ill conditioned. Partial derivatives of both the condensed log likelihood function and the condition number are obtained using the adjoint method, the latter has been derived in this work. The approach is tested on a number of analytical examples and comparisons are made to other optimisation approaches. Finally the approach is used to construct metamodels for a finite element model of an aircraft wing box comprising of 126 thickness design variables and is then compared with a sub-set of the other optimisation approaches.     

基于色彩特征的无参考彩色图像质量评价

彩色图像质量评价(Color Image Quality Assessment,C-IQA)作为一种图像质量评价系统,与其他图像质量评价系统对彩色图像只是简单地将原图像转换为灰度图像进行评价不同,不仅考虑图像在灰度尺度下的质量评价,而且需要对图像的色彩表现做出评价。提出一种基于色彩特征的彩色图像质量的数学评价模型,在考虑亮度特征的同时,加入了色调、色饱和度和色彩熵等色度特征来进行C-IQA。在LIVE图像数据库中进行实验,可以发现模型预测结果与图像实际质量保持高度一致。     

Temporal and Spatial Distribution of Ulva.prolifera in the Yellow Sea and Influence of Typhoon “CHAN-HOM” in 2015

A recurrent floating green algae bloom was detected in the Yellow Sea since 2007.The Ulva.prolifera is non\|toxic,but the massive accumulations can result in significant environmental damage and cause economic loss to marine industries.In this study,the spatial and temporal patterns of Ulva.prolifera green tides were investigated in the Yellow Sea during 2015 using HJ\|1A/1B and MODIS satellite images by means of NDVI (normalized difference vegetation index)and artificial interpretation.The results showed：(1)A little Ulva.prolifera was discovered firstly in adjacent sea of Yancheng,Jiangsu province in early May with distribution area 0.831 km².Under the action of the southeast monsoon,Ulva.prolifera was gradually drifted to Shandong peninsula waters from south to north.The influential area and range reached a peak value with 1 752.756 km² in late June,and gradually subsided from July to August.And Ulva.prolifera about 38.791 km² was monitored in the South Bay of North Korea.In conclusion,Ulva.prolifera in the Yellow Sea in 2015 has experienced five major processes including “Occur\|Development\|Outbreak\|Recession\|Disappeared”.(2)Typhoon "CHAN\|HOM" certainly influenced the northward pathway of Ulva.prolifera and shifted towards the southwest,resulting in most of Ulva.prolifera moved to the east coast of Lianyungang,and speculated that minority Ulva.prolifera drifted to the South Bay of North Korea.(3)From the monitoring data,the spatial resolution between MODIS and ENVISAT (HJ\|1A / 1B)is difference significantly,250 m and 30 m respectively.A functional relation of the two data with monitoring area difference about 2.26 times was established to make up for the shortage of the environmental satellite (HJ\|1A/1B)images.      

成像光谱技术的古画隐藏信息提取

Use of a Modified UTAUT Model to Investigate the Perspectives of Internet Access Device Users

This study integrates perceived enjoyment and cyberloafing with the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) and uses a modified UTAUT model to investigate the behavioral intention and user behavior of access internet device users. The research results show that perceived enjoyment can be used as the antecedence variable of performance expectancy (PE) and effort expectancy (EE). In addition, PE, EE, and social influence will all lead to the occurrence of cyberloafing behavior and increased internet browsing time; however, the hypothesis of the moderator is not fully supported. The results can be provided as reference for subsequent researchers to re-modify the model.     

网格特征均衡化编辑

针对目前缺少从特征分布的角度来研究多边形网格编辑的问题,提出一种基于特征均衡化的网格编辑算法.首先对网格域上的坐标值作均衡化处理,使网格特征重新分布,再通过求解稀疏线性方程组得到新的网格模型,达到编辑网格和增强特征的目的;然后结合网格顶点和三角形重心约束在保持基本形状的基础上对网格特征进行编辑;最后通过显式地编辑网格模型的特征分布来隐式地改变模型的形状和特征.实验结果表明,该算法从网格模型内在特性出发寻找模型的内在控制机制,隐式地将整体形状控制与细节特征控制结合起来,为网格编辑和特征优化提供了新的思路.

Inconsistent heuristics in theory and practice

In the field of heuristic search it is usually assumed that admissible heuristics are consistent, implying that consistency is a desirable attribute. The term “inconsistent heuristic” has, at times, been portrayed negatively, as something to be avoided. Part of this is historical: early research discovered that inconsistency can lead to poor performance for A^? (nodes might be re-expanded many times). However, the issue has never been fully investigated, and was not re-considered after the invention of IDA^?.This paper shows that many of the preconceived notions about inconsistent heuristics are outdated. The worst-case exponential time of inconsistent heuristics is shown to only occur on contrived graphs with edge weights that are exponential in the size of the graph. Furthermore, the paper shows that rather than being something to be avoided, inconsistent heuristics often add a diversity of heuristic values into a search which can lead to a reduction in the number of node expansions. Inconsistent heuristics are easy to create, contrary to the common perception in the AI literature. To demonstrate this, a number of methods for achieving effective inconsistent heuristics are presented.Pathmax is a way of propagating inconsistent heuristic values in the search from parent to children. This technique is generalized into bidirectional pathmax (BPMX) which propagates values from a parent to a child node, and vice versa. BPMX can be integrated into IDA^? and A^?. When inconsistent heuristics are used with BPMX, experimental results show a large reduction in the search effort required by IDA^?. Positive results are also presented for A^? searches.
