Based on a fixed theorem and stability definition, sufficient criteria are established for the existence and stability of multiple equilibria of complex-valued recurrent neural networks. The number of stable equilibria is larger than that of real-valued recurrent neural networks, which can be used to achieve high-capacity associative memories. One numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness and superiority of the presented results.展开更多

LV diastolic dysfunction was defined by E'〈A' in pulse-wave tissue Doppler for inter-ventricular septal (IVS) of mitral annulus. In 24 patients with LV diastolic dysfunction, including 12 patients with delayed relaxation (delayed relaxation group) and 12 patients with pseudo-normal function (pseudo-normal group) and 24 normal volunteers (control group), data of full-volume image were acquired by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography and subjected to volume-time curve analysis. EDV (end-diastolic volume), ESV (end-systolic volume), LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction), PER (peak ejection rate), PFR (peak filling rate) from RT3DE were examined in the three groups. Compared to the control group, PFR (diastolic filling index of RT3DE) was significantly reduced in the delayed relaxation group and pseudo-normal group (P〈0.05). There were no significant differences in EDV, ESV, LVEE PER (P〉0.05). It is concluded that PFR, as a diastolic filling index of RT3DE, can reflect the early diastolic function and serve as a new non-invasive, quick and accurate tool for clinical assessment of LV diastolic function.展开更多

Patients were included withtreatment initiation between February 2014 and August 2016. All patients received a combination regimen of one or more DAAs for either 12 or 24 wk. Predictors of functional benefit were assessed in a univariable as well as multivariable model by binary logistic regression analysis.RESULTS Viral clearance was achieved in 88%(175/199) of patients. Sustained virological response(SVR) 12 rates were as follows: among 156 patients with genotype 1 infection the SVR 12 rate was 90%(n = 141); among 7 patients with genotype 2 infection the SVR 12 rate was 57%(n = 4); among 30 patients with genotype 3 infection the SVR 12 rate was 87%(n = 26); and among 6 patients with genotype 4 infection the SVR 12 rate was 67%(n = 4). Follow-up MELD scores were available for 179 patients. A MELD score improvement was observed in 37%(65/179) of patients, no change of MELD score in 41%(74/179) of patients, and an aggravation was observed in 22%(40/179) of patients. We analysed predictors of functional benefit from antiviral therapy in our patients beyond viral eradication. We identified the Child-Pugh score, the MELD score, the number of platelets and the levels of albumin and bilirubin as significant factors for functional benefit.CONCLUSION Our data may contribute to the discussion of potential risks and benefits of antiviral therapy with individual patients infected with HCV and with advanced liver disease.展开更多

The large eigenvalue problem in wavenumber domain has been solved through real-time off-line/on-line calculation. At off-line stage, a reduced-basis space is constructed in sample wavenumbers according to the solved eigenvalue problems. The matrices independent of parameters are projected onto the reduced-basis spaces. At on-line stage, the reduced eigenvalue problems of the arbitrary wavenumbers are built. Subsequently, the responses in wavenumber domain are obtained by the approximated eigen-pairs. Because of the application of RBM, the computational cost of transient displacement analysis of FGM plate is decreased significantly, while the accuracy of the solution and the physics of the structure are still retained. The efficiency and validity of the proposed method are demonstrated through a numerical example.展开更多

Such determinants are numbers depending on n, playing roles in number theory, combinatorics, random matrices and the like;and mathematicians in the involved fields have been interested in their asymptotic behaviors as n goes to ∞, as previously mentioned, with no single exception to the author’s knowledge. The study carried on in the present paper treats an altogether different situation as suggested by the specification in the title “as the variable tends to +∞”. We deal with those types of Hankel determinants (purposely called Hankelians) which are special cases of Wronskians and, continuing our work on the asymptotics of Wronskians, we study the asymptotic behaviors of n-order Hankelians, whose entries involve either regularly- or rapidly-varying functions, when the variable tends to +∞. As in the study of Wronskians, the treatment of this case also needs the whole apparatus of the theory of higher-order types of asymptotic variation, but the most demanding results are not automatic corollaries of the general theory. In fact, in the study of generic Wronskians (study motivated by applications to asymptotic expansions), the entries were required to belong to one of the classes of “higher-order regular or rapid variation”;on the contrary, in the case of Hankelians, we are confronted with functions whose logarithms are either “regularly- or rapidly-varying functions”, roughly classifiable as “ultrarapidly-varying functions”, and the study requires both special devices and a number of preliminary lemmas about products and linear combinations of functions in the mentioned classes.展开更多

文摘模型预测控制(Model predictive control,MPC)具有很多优点,但用于智能汽车横摆稳定性控制时,由于其动力学模型的多约束和非线性问题,致使MPC优化算法复杂,难以实现足够短的控制周期和步长。为此,提出一种智能汽车横摆稳定性MPC的在线显式求解方法,使用泰勒展开将非线性模型预测控制(Nonlinear model predictive control,NMPC)转换为线性时变模型预测控制(Linear time-varying model predictive control,LTV-MPC)。再使用滚动调整的权重系数,将不等式约束优化转换为能直接显式求解的无约束优化,以避免多步迭代寻优、加快MPC求解速度。仿真试验结果表明,在保证相同控制效果前提下,所提出的显式解方法能使MPC的求解速度提高3~4倍,可显著提高智能汽车横摆稳定性MPC的实时性。
