Unfortunat...Response prediction is a fundamental yet challenging task in aeronautical engineering,requiring an accurate selection of sensor positions correlated with the target responses to achieve precise predictions. Unfortunately, in large-scale structures, the rigorous selection of reliable sensor candidates for multi-target responses remains largely unexplored. In this paper, we propose a flexible and generalized framework for selecting the most relevant sensors to the multi-target response and predicting the target response, referred to as the Fast-aware Multi-Target Response Prediction(FMTRP) approach in the spirit of divide-and-conquer. Specifically, first, a multi-task learning module is designed to predict multi-point response tasks at the same time. Simultaneously, we meticulously devise adaptive mechanisms to facilitate loss-term reweighting and encourage prioritization of challenging tasks in multiple prediction tasks. Second, to ensure ease of interpretation,we introduce a hybrid penalty to select sensors at the group-sparsity, individual-sparsity and element-sparsity levels. Finally, due to the substantial number of candidate sensors posing a significant computational burden, we develop a more efficient search strategy and support computation to make the proposed approach applicable in practice, leading to substantial runtime improvements. Extensive experiments on aircraft standard model response datasets and large airliner test flight datasets validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in identifying sensor locations and simultaneously predicting responses at multiple points. Compared to state-of-the-art methods,the proposed approach achieves an accuracy of over 99% in sinusoidal excitation and exhibits the shortest runtime(3.514 s).展开更多

文摘Vector structured beams(VSBs)offer infinite eigenstates and open up new possibilities for highcapacity optical and quantum communications by the multiplexing of the states.Therefore,the sorting and measuring of VSBs are extremely important.However,the efficient manipulations of a large number of VSBs have simultaneously remained challenging up to now,especially in integrated optical systems.Here,we propose a compact spin-multiplexed diffractive metasurface capable of continuously sorting and detecting arbitrary VSBs through spatial intensity separation.By introducing a diffractive optical neural network with cascaded metasurface systems,we demonstrate arbitrary VSBs sorters that can simultaneously identify Laguerre–Gaussian modes(l=−4 to 4,p=1 to 4),Hermitian–Gaussian modes(m=1 to 4,n=1 to 3),and Bessel–Gaussian modes(l=1 to 12).Such a sorter for arbitrary VSBs could revolutionize applications in integrated and high-dimensional optical communication systems.

文摘The multi-target assignment(MTA)problem,a crucial challenge in command control,mission planning,and a fundamental research focus in military operations,has garnered significant attention over the years.Extensively studied across various domains such as land,sea,air,space,and electronics,the MTA problem has led to the emergence of numerous models and algorithms.To delve deeper into this field,this paper starts by conducting a bibliometric analysis on 463 Scopus database papers using CiteSpace software.The analysis includes examining keyword clustering,co-occurrence,and burst,with visual representations of the results.Following this,the paper provides an overview of current classification and modeling techniques for addressing the MTA problem,distinguishing between static multi-target assignment(SMTA)and dynamic multi-target assignment(DMTA).Subsequently,existing solution algorithms for the MTA problem are reviewed,generally falling into three categories:exact algorithms,heuristic algorithms,and machine learning algorithms.Finally,a development framework is proposed based on the"HIGH"model(high-speed,integrated,great,harmonious)to guide future research and intelligent weapon system development concerning the MTA problem.This framework emphasizes application scenarios,modeling mechanisms,solution algorithms,and system efficiency to offer a roadmap for future exploration in this area.

文摘Response prediction is a fundamental yet challenging task in aeronautical engineering,requiring an accurate selection of sensor positions correlated with the target responses to achieve precise predictions. Unfortunately, in large-scale structures, the rigorous selection of reliable sensor candidates for multi-target responses remains largely unexplored. In this paper, we propose a flexible and generalized framework for selecting the most relevant sensors to the multi-target response and predicting the target response, referred to as the Fast-aware Multi-Target Response Prediction(FMTRP) approach in the spirit of divide-and-conquer. Specifically, first, a multi-task learning module is designed to predict multi-point response tasks at the same time. Simultaneously, we meticulously devise adaptive mechanisms to facilitate loss-term reweighting and encourage prioritization of challenging tasks in multiple prediction tasks. Second, to ensure ease of interpretation,we introduce a hybrid penalty to select sensors at the group-sparsity, individual-sparsity and element-sparsity levels. Finally, due to the substantial number of candidate sensors posing a significant computational burden, we develop a more efficient search strategy and support computation to make the proposed approach applicable in practice, leading to substantial runtime improvements. Extensive experiments on aircraft standard model response datasets and large airliner test flight datasets validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in identifying sensor locations and simultaneously predicting responses at multiple points. Compared to state-of-the-art methods,the proposed approach achieves an accuracy of over 99% in sinusoidal excitation and exhibits the shortest runtime(3.514 s).
文摘Integrated Sensing and Communication(ISAC)is envisioned as a promising technology for Sixth-Generation(6G)wireless communications,which enables simultaneous high-rate communication and high-precision target localization.Compared to independent sensing and communication modules,dual-function ISAC could leverage the strengths of both communication and sensing in order to achieve cooperative gains.When considering the communication core network,ISAC system facilitates multiple communication devices to collaborate for networked sensing.This paper investigates such kind of cooperative ISAC systems with distributed transmitters and receivers to support non-connected and multi-target localization.Specifically,we introduce a Time of Arrival(TOA)based multi-target localization scheme,which leverages the bi-static range measurements between the transmitter,target,and receiver channels in order to achieve elliptical localization.To obtain the low-complexity localization,a two-stage search-refine localization methodology is proposed.In the first stage,we propose a Successive Greedy Grid-Search(SGGS)algorithm and a Successive-Cancellation-List Grid-Search(SCLGS)algorithm to address the Measurement-to-Target Association(MTA)problem with relatively low computational complexity.In the second stage,a linear approximation refinement algorithm is derived to facilitate high-precision localization.Simulation results are presented to validate the effectiveness and superiority of our proposed multi-target localization method.
