However, most of them tend to converge into local areas due to the loss of diversity. Evolutionary multitasking(EMT) is new model of solving complex optimization problems, through the knowledge transfer between the source task and other related tasks. Inspired by EMT, this paper develops a new EMT-based CMOEA to solve CMOPs, in which the main task, a global auxiliary task, and a local auxiliary task are created and optimized by one specific population respectively. The main task focuses on finding the feasible Pareto front(PF), and global and local auxiliary tasks are used to respectively enhance global and local diversity. Moreover, the global auxiliary task is used to implement the global search by ignoring constraints, so as to help the population of the main task pass through infeasible obstacles. The local auxiliary task is used to provide local diversity around the population of the main task, so as to exploit promising regions. Through the knowledge transfer among the three tasks, the search ability of the population of the main task will be significantly improved. Compared with other state-of-the-art CMOEAs, the experimental results on three benchmark test suites demonstrate the superior or competitive performance of the proposed CMOEA.展开更多

To reduce the size of the total computational cost, the formulation of the MAS is modified by minimizing the number of auxiliary sources considered to implement the solution. It is shown that the standard formulation of the method of auxiliary sources, based on placing a finite number of auxiliary sources in an interior cylinder and the same number in the exterior cylinder surrounding the physical boundary, can be replaced by a finite number of strips placed on the same interior and exterior cylinder. These strips, containing auxiliary sources, are separated by a constant angle. Thus, compared with the standard MAS, the number of auxiliary sources of the new approximated method is reduced; also the proposed method can greatly reduce the computational complexity and the memory requirement. The numerical results obtained in this paper reveal the validity of the proposed approximated method.展开更多

While mainlobe jamming (MLJ) exists, the mainlobe of adaptive pattern will subject to serious distortion, which results in a failure of detecting and tracking targets by monopulse technique. Therefore, a monopulse angle estimation algorithm based on combining sum-difference beam and auxiliary beam is presented. This algorithm utilizes both high gain difference beams and high gain auxiliary beams for cancelling the mainlobe jammer and multiple sidelobe jammers (SLJs) while keeping an adap- tive monopulse ratio. Theoretical analysis and simulation results indicate that the serious invalidation of monopulse technique in MLJ and SLJs scenarios is resolved well, which improves the monopulse angle accuracy greatly. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is of simple implementation and low computational complexity.展开更多

In the MIG welding-brazing process, the lower thermal conductivity of steel can cause dramatic change of temperature gradient on steel surface, while the auxiliary TIG arc can change this phenomenon by heating the steel side. The auxiliary TIG improved the wettability of molten metal, resulting in the molten metal spreading fully on upper surfaces, front and back surface of steel, forming a sound brazing joint; the content of Cr and Ni elements in IMCs layer was increased, which can enhance the quality of the layer; and the microstructure of IMCs layer also was improved, increasing the bonding strength with the weld seam. The average tensile strength of the joint obtained with auxiliary TIG arc(146.7 MPa) was higher than that without auxiliary TIG arc(96.7 MPa).展开更多

The experimental system consists of a simulative release mechanism, a scaled model and a pose measuring system. A new release mechanism was designed to ensure stability of the separation. Scaled models of the auxiliary fuel tank were designed and their moment of inertia was adjusted by installing counterweights inside the model. Pose param- eters of the scaled model were measured and calculated by a binocular vision system. Additionally, in order to achieve high brightness and high signal-to-noise ratio of the images in the dark enclosed wind tunnel, a new high-speed image acquisition method based on miniature self-emitting units was pre- sented. Accuracy of the pose measurement system and repeatability of the separation mechanism were verified in the laboratory. Results show that the position precision of the pose measurement system can reach 0.1 mm, the precision of the pitch and yaw angles is less than 0.1° and that of the roll angle can be up to 0.3°. Besides, repeatability errors of models" velocity and angular velocity controlled by the release mechanism remain small, satisfying the measurement requirements. Finally, experiments for the separation of auxiliary fuel tanks were conducted in the laboratory.展开更多

Outcomes of these interactions determine the efficiency of viral infection and subsequent disease progression. HIV- infected cells respond to viral invasion with various defensive strategies such as innate, cellular and humoral immune antiviral mechanisms. On the other hand, the virus has also developed various offensive tactics to suppress these host cellular responses. Among many of the viral offensive strategies, HIV-1 viral auxiliary proteins (Tat, Rev, Nef, Vif, Vpr and Vpu) play important roles in the host-pathogen interaction and thus have significant impacts on the outcome of HIV infection. One of the best examples is the interaction of Vif with a host cytidine deaminase APOBEC3G. Although specific roles of other auxiliary proteins are not as well described as Vif-APOBEC3G interaction, it is the goal of this brief review to summarize some of the preliminary findings with the hope to stimulate further discussion and investiga- tion in this exhilarating area of research.展开更多

文摘The reliability of the on-wing aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit(APU)decides the cost and the comfort of flight to a large degree.The most important function of APU is to help start main engines by providing compressed air.Especially on the condition of sudden shutdown in the air,APU can offer additional thrust for landing.Therefore,its condition monitoring has drawn much attention from the academic and industrial field.Among the on-wing sensing data which can reflect its condition,Exhaust Gas Temperature(EGT)is one of the most important parameters.To ensure the reliability of EGT,one kind of data-driven anomaly detection framework for EGT sensing data is proposed based on the Gaussian Process Regression and Kernel Principal Component Analysis.The situations of one-dimensional and two-dimensional input data for EGT anomaly detection are considered,respectively.The cross-validation experiments are carried out by utilizing the real condition data of APU,which are provided by China Southern Airlines Company Limited Shenyang Maintenance Base.The anomalous stuck condition of EGT sensing data is also detected.Experimental results show that the proposed EGT sensing data anomaly detection method can achieve better performance of false positive ratio,false negative ratio and accuracy.

文摘Only in the presence of sidelobe jamming (SLJ), can the conventional adaptive monopulse technique null the jamming effectively and maintain the monopulse angle estimation accuracy simultaneously. While mainlobe jamming (MLJ) exists, the mainlobe of adaptive pattern will subject to serious distortion, which results in a failure of detecting and tracking targets by monopulse technique. Therefore, a monopulse angle estimation algorithm based on combining sum-difference beam and auxiliary beam is presented. This algorithm utilizes both high gain difference beams and high gain auxiliary beams for cancelling the mainlobe jammer and multiple sidelobe jammers (SLJs) while keeping an adap- tive monopulse ratio. Theoretical analysis and simulation results indicate that the serious invalidation of monopulse technique in MLJ and SLJs scenarios is resolved well, which improves the monopulse angle accuracy greatly. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is of simple implementation and low computational complexity.

文摘A new procedure for the highly diastereoselective synthesis of (1S)-trans-cyclopropane derivatives using a fructose derivative as the chiral auxiliary was developed. Chloroacetylated 1,2;4,5-di-O-isopropylidene-D-fructopyranose was reacted with a tertiary amine to form the ammonium salt, which was treated with cesium carbonate to give the cyclopropane derivative through ylide intermediate. The described procedure provides an efficient method to synthesize optically pure dior poly-substituded cyclopropanes.
文摘A new hybrid welding process was successfully used to join aluminum alloy and stainless steel. In the MIG welding-brazing process, the lower thermal conductivity of steel can cause dramatic change of temperature gradient on steel surface, while the auxiliary TIG arc can change this phenomenon by heating the steel side. The auxiliary TIG improved the wettability of molten metal, resulting in the molten metal spreading fully on upper surfaces, front and back surface of steel, forming a sound brazing joint; the content of Cr and Ni elements in IMCs layer was increased, which can enhance the quality of the layer; and the microstructure of IMCs layer also was improved, increasing the bonding strength with the weld seam. The average tensile strength of the joint obtained with auxiliary TIG arc(146.7 MPa) was higher than that without auxiliary TIG arc(96.7 MPa).

文摘A novel DLC film deposition method was proposed to realize the deposition of DLC film on the surface of complex shaped workpiece.Meanwhile,Si-DLC film was deposited on the surface of M2 high-speed steel(HSS M2)and 304 stainless steel(304SS),and the microstructure,surface roughness,mechanical properties,corrosion resistance and tribological properties of Si-DLC films were characterized in detail.Results show that Si-DLC film at different axial positions of the auxiliary cathode possesses similar microstructure,film thickness and surface roughness,and the as-deposited Si-DLC film shows the low intrinsic stress of<0.3 GPa.Compared with the 304SS substrate,the Si-DLC film presents more noble corrosion potential,lower corrosion current density and higher polarization resistance,exhibiting higher corrosion resistance.Moreover,the Si-DLC film exhibits higher hardness,elastic factor and plastic factor than HSS M2 substrate and the corresponding adhesive strength is more than 10 N.The Si-DLC film sliding against GCr15 steel ball shows a lower friction coefficient than that of HSS M2 substrate and the wear rate of GCr15 steel ball sliding against the Si-DLC is lower than that of HSS M2 substrate.In addition,this novel method was used to deposit Si-DLC film on gears,drills and bearings without rotating sample racks.As a consequence,this method possesses great potential and can be generalized for the deposition of DLC film on the surface of complex shape workpiece.

文摘An adaptive stable observer with output current online identification strategy for the auxiliary inverters applied in advanced electric trains, such as high speed railway, urban rail, subway and maglev trains, is proposed. The designed observer is used to estimate the state variables, i.e. controllable duty ratio and current components in d-q-o rotary reference frame. The convergence of the observer estimation error is analyzed with consideration of uncertain level variation of input voltage at direct current(DC) side and sufficient conditions are given to prove its practical stability. Experimental results are shown to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed observer.

文摘In this paper, we propose a simulative experimental system in wind tunnel conditions lbr the separation of auxiliary fuel tanks from an aircraft. The experimental system consists of a simulative release mechanism, a scaled model and a pose measuring system. A new release mechanism was designed to ensure stability of the separation. Scaled models of the auxiliary fuel tank were designed and their moment of inertia was adjusted by installing counterweights inside the model. Pose param- eters of the scaled model were measured and calculated by a binocular vision system. Additionally, in order to achieve high brightness and high signal-to-noise ratio of the images in the dark enclosed wind tunnel, a new high-speed image acquisition method based on miniature self-emitting units was pre- sented. Accuracy of the pose measurement system and repeatability of the separation mechanism were verified in the laboratory. Results show that the position precision of the pose measurement system can reach 0.1 mm, the precision of the pitch and yaw angles is less than 0.1° and that of the roll angle can be up to 0.3°. Besides, repeatability errors of models" velocity and angular velocity controlled by the release mechanism remain small, satisfying the measurement requirements. Finally, experiments for the separation of auxiliary fuel tanks were conducted in the laboratory.

文摘To track the nonlinear,non-Gaussian bearings-only maneuvering target accurately online,the constrained auxiliary particle filtering(CAPF)algorithm is presented.To restrict the samples into the feasible area,the soft measurement constraints are implemented into the update routine via the1 regularization.Meanwhile,to enhance the sampling diversity and efficiency,the target kinetic features and the latest observations are involved into the evolution.To take advantage of the past and the current measurement information simultaneously,the sub-optimal importance distribution is constructed as a Gaussian mixture consisting of the original and modified priors with the fuzzy weighted factors.As a result,the corresponding weights are more evenly distributed,and the posterior distribution of interest is approximated well with a heavier tailor.Simulation results demonstrate the validity and superiority of the CAPF algorithm in terms of efficiency and robustness.
文摘Active host-pathogen interactions take place during infection of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Outcomes of these interactions determine the efficiency of viral infection and subsequent disease progression. HIV- infected cells respond to viral invasion with various defensive strategies such as innate, cellular and humoral immune antiviral mechanisms. On the other hand, the virus has also developed various offensive tactics to suppress these host cellular responses. Among many of the viral offensive strategies, HIV-1 viral auxiliary proteins (Tat, Rev, Nef, Vif, Vpr and Vpu) play important roles in the host-pathogen interaction and thus have significant impacts on the outcome of HIV infection. One of the best examples is the interaction of Vif with a host cytidine deaminase APOBEC3G. Although specific roles of other auxiliary proteins are not as well described as Vif-APOBEC3G interaction, it is the goal of this brief review to summarize some of the preliminary findings with the hope to stimulate further discussion and investiga- tion in this exhilarating area of research.

文摘As one of the most valuable assets in China,traditional medicine has a long history and contains pieces of knowledge.The diagnosis and treatment of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)has benefited from the natural language processing technology.This paper proposes a knowledge-based syndrome reasoning method in computer-assisted diagnosis.This method is based on the established knowledge graph of TCM and this paper introduces the reinforcement learning algorithm to mine the hidden relationship among the entities and obtain the reasoning path.According to this reasoning path,we could infer the path from the symptoms to the syndrome and get all possibilities via the relationship between symptoms and causes.Moreover,this study applies the Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency(TF-IDF)idea to the computer-assisted diagnosis of TCM for the score of syndrome calculation.Finally,combined with symptoms,syndrome,and causes,the disease could be confirmed comprehensively by voting,and the experiment shows that the system can help doctors and families to disease diagnosis effectively.
