Backstepping design with local optimality matching

In nonlinear H^∞-optimal control design for strict-feedback nonlinear systems, our objective is to construct globally stabilizing control laws to match the optimal control law up to any desired order, and to be inverse optimal with respect to some computable cost functional. Our recursive construction of a cost functional and the corresponding solution to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equation employs a new concept of nonlinear Cholesky factorization. When the value function for the system has a nonlinear Cholesky factorization, we show that the backstepping design procedure can be tuned to yield the optimal control law     

Acceleration and filtering in the generalized Landweber iteration using a variable shaping matrix

The generalized Landweber iteration with a variable shaping matrix is used to solve the large linear system of equations arising in the image reconstruction problem of emission tomography. The method is based on the property that once a spatial frequency image component is almost recovered within in in the generalized Landweber iteration, this component will still stay within in during subsequent iterations with a different shaping matrix, as long as this shaping matrix satisfies the convergence criterion for the component. Two different shaping matrices are used: the first recovers low-frequency image components; and the second may be used either to accelerate the reconstruction of high-frequency image components, or to attenuate these components to filter the image. The variable shaping matrix gives results similar to truncated inverse filtering, but requires much less computation and memory, since it does not rely on the singular value decomposition.

Tracking mobile users in wireless networks via semi-supervised colocalization

Recent years have witnessed the growing popularity of sensor and sensor-network technologies, supporting important practical applications. One of the fundamental issues is how to accurately locate a user with few labeled data in a wireless sensor network, where a major difficulty arises from the need to label large quantities of user location data, which in turn requires knowledge about the locations of signal transmitters or access points. To solve this problem, we have developed a novel machine learning-based approach that combines collaborative filtering with graph-based semi-supervised learning to learn both mobile users' locations and the locations of access points. Our framework exploits both labeled and unlabeled data from mobile devices and access points. In our two-phase solution, we first build a manifold-based model from a batch of labeled and unlabeled data in an offline training phase and then use a weighted k-nearest-neighbor method to localize a mobile client in an online localization phase. We extend the two-phase colocalization to an online and incremental model that can deal with labeled and unlabeled data that come sequentially and adapt to environmental changes. Finally, we embed an action model to the framework such that additional kinds of sensor signals can be utilized to further boost the performance of mobile tracking. Compared to other state-of-the-art systems, our framework has been shown to be more accurate while requiring less calibration effort in our experiments performed on three different testbeds.     

Determination of the modified effect of nano-SiO2 by titration in nonaqueous phase

The dispersion of nanosilica that was modified and original in organic solvents could be judged directly by using methyl red as the indicator, and the principle of color development was also discussed. A method has been developed for the determination of the acidity of solid surfaces, which consists of titration of the solid suspended in benzene with n-butyl amine, using neutral red as the indicator. Basic indicator forms a red color on acidic solids, and the end-point of the titration is the disappearance of the red color. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

DNA immobilization and SAW response in ZnO nanotips grown on LiNbO3 substrates.

DNA immobilization enhancement is demonstrated in a structure consisting of ZnO nanotips on 128 degrees Y-cut LiNbO3. The ZnO nanotips are grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on the top of a SiO2 layer that is deposited and patterned on the LiNbO3 SAW delay path. The effects of ZnO nanotips on the SAW response are investigated. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy are used to analyze the ZnO nanotips, which are of single crystalline quality, and they are uniformly aligned with their c-axis perpendicular to the substrate surface. The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the ZnO nanotips shows strong near bandedge transition with insignificant deep level emission, confirming their good optical property. DNA immobilization enhancement is experimentally validated by radioactive labeling tests and SAW response changes. The ZnO nanotips enhance the DNA immobilization by a factor of 200 compared to ZnO film with flat surface. DNA hybridization with complementary and noncomplementary second strand DNA oligonucleotides is used to study the selective binding of the structure. This device structure possesses the advantages of both traditional SAW sensors and ZnO nanostructures.     

Study of hybrid optical burst networks

We propose the hybrid optical burst switching (HOBS), and investigate the HOBS-based ring topology with numerical simulation. Results indicate that the packet loss ratio in HOBS is much less than that in optical burst switching(OBS) and its performance depends on some parameters such as the packet proportion, the electronic buffer size and the processing speed in the node. __________ Translated from Journal on Communications, 2005, 26(11): 7–11 (in Chinese)
