文摘Feature selection methods rooted in rough sets confront two notable limitations:their high computa-tional complexity and sensitivity to noise,rendering them impractical for managing large-scale and noisy datasets.The primary issue stems from these methods’undue reliance on all samples.To overcome these challenges,we introduce the concept of cross-similarity grounded in a robust fuzzy relation and design a rapid and robust feature selection algorithm.Firstly,we construct a robust fuzzy relation by introducing a truncation parameter.Then,based on this fuzzy relation,we propose the concept of cross-similarity,which emphasizes the sample-to-sample similarity relations that uniquely determine feature importance,rather than considering all such relations equally.After studying the manifestations and properties of cross-similarity across different fuzzy granularities,we propose a forward greedy feature selection algorithm that leverages cross-similarity as the foundation for information measurement.This algorithm significantly reduces the time complexity from O(m2n2)to O(mn2).Experimental findings reveal that the average runtime of five state-of-the-art comparison algorithms is roughly 3.7 times longer than our algorithm,while our algorithm achieves an average accuracy that surpasses those of the five comparison algorithms by approximately 3.52%.This underscores the effectiveness of our approach.This paper paves the way for applying feature selection algorithms grounded in fuzzy rough sets to large-scale gene datasets.

文摘The growing demand for privacy-preserving machine learning has positioned federated learning as a promising research paradigm,enabling the training of high-performance models across distributed data sources without compromising user privacy.However,despite its advantages,federated learning faces critical challenges arising from the heterogeneity and volatility of participating clients.In real-world scenarios,variations in client participation,data volume,computational capability,and communication reliability contribute to a highly dynamic training environment,which negatively impacts efficiency and convergence of the model.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a novel client selection method named CDE3.First,CDE3 employs a multidimensional model to comprehensively evaluate clients’contributions.Second,we enhance the classical Exp3 algorithm by incorporating a discount factor that exponentially decays historical contributions,thereby increasing the influence of recent client behavior in the selection process.Furthermore,we provide a theoretical analysis demonstrating a favorable regret bound for the proposed method.Extensive experiments conducted in volatile FL settings validate the effectiveness of CDE3,showing improved convergence speed and model accuracy compared with those of the baseline algorithms.These results confirm that CDE3 effectively mitigates volatility,enhancing the stability and efficiency of federated learning.

文摘Astronomical site selection work is very hard.Unmanned technologies are important trends and solutions.We present a relatively easy method to plan a high reliability site selection which can extend the time from site deployment to returning for maintaining by unmanned confirming the site.First,we redefine the reliability of a site selection deployment with the parameter of the trusty time,which means when we must return,and which can be relatively easy for estimating.The redefinition makes the reliability parameter as a Bayesian probability,and can be obtained by estimating besides testing,which makes the evaluation of each device's reliability much easier.Then we use block diagram tools in the Matlab Simulink software to construct structure diagram,and to link each component with relations of parallel,serial,protection,and so on.This makes the whole reliability value can be calculated at the time when we design or plan a site selection.We applied this concept and method in an actual site selection in Lenghu,Qinghai Province,China.The survey practice reveals its effectiveness and simpleness.

文摘Selecting proper descriptors(also known feature selection,FS)is key in the process of establishing mechanical properties prediction model of hot-rolled microalloyed steels by using machine learning(ML)algorithm.FS methods based on data-driving can reduce the redundancy of data features and improve the prediction accuracy of mechanical properties.Based on the collected data of hot-rolled microalloyed steels,the association rules are used to mine the correlation information between the data.High-quality feature subsets are selected by the proposed FS method(FS method based on genetic algorithm embedding,GAMIC).Compared with the common FS method,it is shown on dataset that GAMIC selects feature subsets more appropriately.Six different ML algorithms are trained and tested for mechanical properties prediction.The result shows that the root-mean-square error of yield strength,tensile strength and elongation based on limit gradient enhancement(XGBoost)algorithm is 21.95 MPa,20.85 MPa and 1.96%,the correlation coefficient(R^(2))is 0.969,0.968 and 0.830,and the mean absolute error is 16.84 MPa,15.83 MPa and 1.48%,respectively,showing the best prediction performance.Finally,SHapley Additive exPlanation is used to further explore the influence of feature variables on mechanical properties.GAMIC feature selection method proposed is universal,which provides a basis for the development of high-precision mechanical property prediction model.
文摘Dynamic positioning systems(DPS)on marine vessels exhibit actuator redundancy,with more actuators than degrees of freedom.A control allocation unit is employed to address this redundancy.Practical systems often feature time-varying elements in the effectiveness matrix due to factors such as changing operating conditions,nonlinearity,and disturbances.Additionally,not all thrusters require engagement at each step to counteract disturbances and maintain position.Control efforts can be generated by selecting some thrusters based on their instant effectiveness,while others can remain on standby.Therefore,introducing a control allocation method that calculates the effectiveness matrix online and selects the most efficient thrusters could be effective.This paper introduces a fault-tolerant control allocation strategy for DPS with a varying effectiveness matrix.Specifically,the investigation focuses on a case study featuring eight azimuth thrusters used on a drilling rig.At each time step,the effective matrix is calculated online,followed by the selection of the four most effective thrusters based on the actuator effectiveness index,with the four serving as backups in case of a fault.The proposed strategy has been validated through simulation results,demonstrating advantages such as robustness against changes in the effectiveness matrix and reduced energy usage by the thrusters.

文摘Advanced Persistent Threats(APTs)represent one of the most complex and dangerous categories of cyber-attacks characterised by their stealthy behaviour,long-term persistence,and ability to bypass traditional detection systems.The complexity of real-world network data poses significant challenges in detection.Machine learning models have shown promise in detecting APTs;however,their performance often suffers when trained on large datasets with redundant or irrelevant features.This study presents a novel,hybrid feature selection method designed to improve APT detection by reducing dimensionality while preserving the informative characteristics of the data.It combines Mutual Information(MI),Symmetric Uncertainty(SU)and Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance(mRMR)to enhance feature selection.MI and SU assess feature relevance,while mRMR maximises relevance and minimises redundancy,ensuring that the most impactful features are prioritised.This method addresses redundancy among selected features,improving the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the detection model.Experiments on a real-world APT datasets were conducted to evaluate the proposed method.Multiple classifiers including,Random Forest,Support Vector Machine(SVM),Gradient Boosting,and Neural Networks were used to assess classification performance.The results demonstrate that the proposed feature selection method significantly enhances detection accuracy compared to baseline models trained on the full feature set.The Random Forest algorithm achieved the highest performance,with near-perfect accuracy,precision,recall,and F1 scores(99.97%).The proposed adaptive thresholding algorithm within the selection method allows each classifier to benefit from a reduced and optimised feature space,resulting in improved training and predictive performance.This research offers a scalable and classifier-agnostic solution for dimensionality reduction in cybersecurity applications.

文摘Data collected in fields such as cybersecurity and biomedicine often encounter high dimensionality and class imbalance.To address the problem of low classification accuracy for minority class samples arising from numerous irrelevant and redundant features in high-dimensional imbalanced data,we proposed a novel feature selection method named AMF-SGSK based on adaptive multi-filter and subspace-based gaining sharing knowledge.Firstly,the balanced dataset was obtained by random under-sampling.Secondly,combining the feature importance score with the AUC score for each filter method,we proposed a concept called feature hardness to judge the importance of feature,which could adaptively select the essential features.Finally,the optimal feature subset was obtained by gaining sharing knowledge in multiple subspaces.This approach effectively achieved dimensionality reduction for high-dimensional imbalanced data.The experiment results on 30 benchmark imbalanced datasets showed that AMF-SGSK performed better than other eight commonly used algorithms including BGWO and IG-SSO in terms of F1-score,AUC,and G-mean.The mean values of F1-score,AUC,and Gmean for AMF-SGSK are 0.950,0.967,and 0.965,respectively,achieving the highest among all algorithms.And the mean value of Gmean is higher than those of IG-PSO,ReliefF-GWO,and BGOA by 3.72%,11.12%,and 20.06%,respectively.Furthermore,the selected feature ratio is below 0.01 across the selected ten datasets,further demonstrating the proposed method’s overall superiority over competing approaches.AMF-SGSK could adaptively remove irrelevant and redundant features and effectively improve the classification accuracy of high-dimensional imbalanced data,providing scientific and technological references for practical applications.

文摘This study systematically conducted preparation optimization and performance investigations on Co-modified Ce/TiO_(2) catalysts,with a focus on examining how preparation methods and Co loading regulate the catalyst’s low-temperature denitrification activity.After identifying optimal preparation parameters via condition screening,multiple characterization techniques-including BET,XRD,XPS,H_(2)-TPR and in situ DRIFTS-were employed to deeply analyze the catalyst’s physicochemical properties and reaction mechanism.Results demonstrated that compared to the impregnation and co-precipitation methods,the Ce-Co_(0.025)/TiO_(2)-SG catalyst(prepared by the sol-gel method with a Co/Ti mass ratio of 0.025)exhibited significantly superior denitrification activity:NO conversion remained stably above 95%in the 225−350℃ temperature range,and it displayed high N_(2) selectivity.Characterization analysis revealed that abundant surface oxygen vacancies,a high proportion of Ce^(3+) species,and prominent acidic sites collectively contributed to enhancing its low-temperature denitrification performance.This work provides reference value for the development of highly efficient low-temperature denitrification catalysts.

文摘The Financial Technology(FinTech)sector has witnessed rapid growth,resulting in increasingly complex and high-volume digital transactions.Although this expansion improves efficiency and accessibility,it also introduces significant vulnerabilities,including fraud,money laundering,and market manipulation.Traditional anomaly detection techniques often fail to capture the relational and dynamic characteristics of financial data.Graph Neural Networks(GNNs),capable of modeling intricate interdependencies among entities,have emerged as a powerful framework for detecting subtle and sophisticated anomalies.However,the high-dimensionality and inherent noise of FinTech datasets demand robust feature selection strategies to improve model scalability,performance,and interpretability.This paper presents a comprehensive survey of GNN-based approaches for anomaly detection in FinTech,with an emphasis on the synergistic role of feature selection.We examine the theoretical foundations of GNNs,review state-of-the-art feature selection techniques,analyze their integration with GNNs,and categorize prevalent anomaly types in FinTech applications.In addition,we discuss practical implementation challenges,highlight representative case studies,and propose future research directions to advance the field of graph-based anomaly detection in financial systems.

文摘This study presents an effective hybrid simulation approach for simulating broadband ground motion in complex near-fault locations.The approach utilizes a deterministic approach based on the spectral element method(SEM),which is used to simulate low-frequency ground motion(f<1 Hz)by incorporating an innovative efficient discontinuous Galerkin(DG)method for grid division to accurately model basin sedimentary layers at reduced costs.It also introduces a comprehensive hybrid source model for high-frequency random scattering and a nonlinear analysis module for basin sedimentary layers.Deterministic outcomes are combined with modified three-dimensional stochastic finite fault method(3D-EXSIM)simulations of high-frequency ground motion(f>1 Hz).A fourth-order Butterworth filter with zero phase shift is employed for time-domain filtering of low-and high-frequency time series at a crossover frequency of 1 Hz,merging the low and high-frequency ground motions into a broadband time series.Taking an Ms 6.8 Luding earthquake,as an example,this hybrid method was used for a rapid and efficient simulation analysis of broadband ground motion in the region.The accuracy and efficiency of this hybrid method were verified through comparisons with actually observed station data and empirical attenuation curves.Deterministic method simulation results revealed the effects of mountainous topography,basin effects,nonlinear effects within the basin’s sedimentary layers,and a coupling interaction between the basin and the mountains.The findings are consistent with similar studies,showing that near-fault sedimentary basins significantly focus and amplify strong ground motion,and the soil’s nonlinear behavior in the basin influences ground motion to varying extents at different distances from the fault.The mountainous topography impacts the basin’s response to ground motion,leading to barrier effects.This research provides a scientific foundation for seismic zoning,urban planning,and seismic design in nearfault mountain basin regions.
文摘With the increasing complexity of vehicular networks and the proliferation of connected vehicles,Federated Learning(FL)has emerged as a critical framework for decentralized model training while preserving data privacy.However,efficient client selection and adaptive weight allocation in heterogeneous and non-IID environments remain challenging.To address these issues,we propose Federated Learning with Client Selection and Adaptive Weighting(FedCW),a novel algorithm that leverages adaptive client selection and dynamic weight allocation for optimizing model convergence in real-time vehicular networks.FedCW selects clients based on their Euclidean distance from the global model and dynamically adjusts aggregation weights to optimize both data diversity and model convergence.Experimental results show that FedCW significantly outperforms existing FL algorithms such as FedAvg,FedProx,and SCAFFOLD,particularly in non-IID settings,achieving faster convergence,higher accuracy,and reduced communication overhead.These findings demonstrate that FedCW provides an effective solution for enhancing the performance of FL in heterogeneous,edge-based computing environments.

文摘High-dimensional data causes difficulties in machine learning due to high time consumption and large memory requirements.In particular,in amulti-label environment,higher complexity is required asmuch as the number of labels.Moreover,an optimization problem that fully considers all dependencies between features and labels is difficult to solve.In this study,we propose a novel regression-basedmulti-label feature selectionmethod that integrates mutual information to better exploit the underlying data structure.By incorporating mutual information into the regression formulation,the model captures not only linear relationships but also complex non-linear dependencies.The proposed objective function simultaneously considers three types of relationships:(1)feature redundancy,(2)featurelabel relevance,and(3)inter-label dependency.These three quantities are computed usingmutual information,allowing the proposed formulation to capture nonlinear dependencies among variables.These three types of relationships are key factors in multi-label feature selection,and our method expresses them within a unified formulation,enabling efficient optimization while simultaneously accounting for all of them.To efficiently solve the proposed optimization problem under non-negativity constraints,we develop a gradient-based optimization algorithm with fast convergence.Theexperimental results on sevenmulti-label datasets show that the proposed method outperforms existingmulti-label feature selection techniques.

文摘Populus species,important economic species combining rapid growth with broad ecological adaptability,play a critical role in sustainable forestry and bioenergy production.In this study,we performed whole-genome resequencing of 707 individuals from a full-sib family to develop comprehensive single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)markers and constructed a high-density genetic linkage map of 19 linkage groups.The total genetic length of the map reached 3623.65 cM with an average marker interval of 0.34 cM.By integrating multidimensional phenotypic data,89 quantitative trait loci(QTL)associated with growth,wood physical and chemical properties,disease resistance,and leaf morphology traits were identified,with logarithm of odds(LOD)scores ranging from 3.13 to 21.72 Notably,pleiotropic analysis revealed significant colocaliza and phenotypic variance explained between 1.7% and 11.6%.-tion hotspots on chromosomes LG1,LG5,LG6,LG8,and LG14,with epistatic interaction network analysis confirming genetic basis of coordinated regulation across multiple traits.Functional annotation of 207 candidate genes showed that R2R3-MYB and bHLH transcription factors and pyruvate kinase-encoding genes were significantly enriched,suggesting crucial roles in lignin biosynthesis and carbon metabolic pathways.Allelic effect analysis indicated that the frequency of favorable alleles associated with target traits ranged from 0.20 to 0.55.Incorporation of QTL-derived favorable alleles as random effects into Bayesian-based genomic selection models led to an increase in prediction accuracy ranging from 1% to 21%,with Bayesian ridge regression as the best predictive model.This study provides valuable genomic resources and genetic insights for deciphering complex trait architecture and advancing molecular breeding in poplar.
