Firstly, urgency cost, economic cost, and transportation distance cost were identified as key objectives. The study applied fuzzy theory integration to construct a triangular fuzzy multi-objective site selection decision model. Next, the defuzzification theory transformed the fuzzy decision model into a precise one. Subsequently, an improved Chaotic Quantum Multi-Objective Harris Hawks Optimization (CQ-MOHHO) algorithm was proposed to solve the model. The CQ-MOHHO algorithm was shown to rapidly produce high-quality Pareto front solutions and identify optimal site selection schemes for emergency resource distribution centers through case studies. This outcome verified the feasibility and efficacy of the site selection decision model and the CQ-MOHHO algorithm. To further assess CQ-MOHHO’s performance, Zitzler-Deb-Thiele (ZDT) test functions, commonly used in multi-objective optimization, were employed. Comparisons with Multi-Objective Harris Hawks Optimization (MOHHO), Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II), and Multi-Objective Grey Wolf Optimizer (MOGWO) using Generational Distance (GD), Hypervolume (HV), and Inverted Generational Distance (IGD) metrics showed that CQ-MOHHO achieved superior global search ability, faster convergence, and higher solution quality. The CQ-MOHHO algorithm efficiently achieved a balance between multiple objectives, providing decision-makers with satisfactory solutions and a valuable reference for researching and applying emergency site selection problems.展开更多

Three nonlinear prediction methods of multivariate chaotic time series including local mean prediction, local linear prediction and BP neural networks prediction are considered. The simulation results obtained by the Lorenz system show that no matter what nonlinear prediction method is used, the prediction error of multivariate chaotic time series is much smaller than the prediction error of univariate time series, even if half of the data of univariate time series are used in multivariate time series. The results also verify that methods to determine the time delays and the embedding dimensions are correct from the view of minimizing the prediction error.展开更多

文摘Detecting Alzheimer’s disease is essential for patient care,as an accurate diagnosis influences treatment options.Classifying dementia from non-dementia in brain MRIs is challenging due to features such as hippocampal atrophy,while manual diagnosis is susceptible to error.Optimal computer-aided diagnosis(CAD)systems are essential for improving accuracy and reducing misclassification risks.This study proposes an optimized ensemble method(CEOE-Net)that initiates with the selection of pre-trained models,including DenseNet121,ResNet50V2,and ResNet152V2 for unique feature extraction.Each selected model is enhanced with the inclusion of a channel attention(CA)block to improve the feature extraction process.In addition,this study employs the Short Time Fourier transform(STFT)technique with each individual model for hierarchical feature extraction before making final predictions in classifying MRI images of dementia and non-demented individuals,considering them as backbone models for building the ensemble method.STFT highlights subtle differences in brain structure and activity,particularly when combined with CA mechanisms that emphasize relevant features by converting spatial data into the frequency domain.The predictions generated from these models are then processed by the Chaotic Evolution Optimization(CEO)algorithm,which determines the optimal weightage set for each backbone model to maximize their contribution.The CEO optimizer explores weight distribution to ensure the most effective combination of model predictions for enhancing classification accuracy,thus significantly improving overall ensemble performance.This study utilized three datasets for validation:two private clinical brain MRI datasets(OSASIS and ADNI)to test the proposed model’s effectiveness.Image augmentation techniques were also employed to enhance dataset diversity and improve classification performance.The proposed CEOE-Net outperforms conventional baseline models and existing methods by showing its effectiveness as a clinical tool for the accurate classification of dementia and non-dementia MRI brain images,as well as autistic and non-autistic facial features.It achieved consistent accuracies of 93.44%on OSASIS and 81.94%on ADNI.

文摘Fractional discrete systems can enable the modeling and control of the complicated processes more adaptable through the concept of versatility by providing systemdynamics’descriptions withmore degrees of freedom.Numerical approaches have become necessary and sufficient to be addressed and employed for benefiting from the adaptability of such systems for varied applications.A variety of fractional Layla and Majnun model(LMM)system kinds has been proposed in the current work where some of these systems’key behaviors are addressed.In addition,the necessary and sufficient conditions for the stability and asymptotic stability of the fractional dynamic systems are investigated,as a result of which,the necessary requirements of the LMM to achieve constant and asymptotically steady zero resolutions are provided.As a special case,when Layla and Majnun have equal feelings,we propose an analysis of the system in view of its equilibrium and fixed point sets.Considering that the system has marginal stability if its eigenvalues have both negative and zero real portions,it is demonstrated that the system neither converges nor diverges to a steady trajectory or equilibrium point.It,rather,continues to hover along the line separating stability and instability based on the fractional LMM system.

文摘The principle of optical time-domain reflection localization limits the sensing spatial resolution of Raman distributed optical fiber sensing.We provide a solution for a Raman distributed optical fiber sensing system with kilometer-level sensing distance and submeter spatial resolution.Based on this,we propose a Raman distributed optical fiber sensing scheme based on chaotic pulse cluster demodulation.Chaotic pulse clusters are used as the probe signal,in preference to conventional pulsed or chaotic single-pulse lasers.Furthermore,the accurate positioning of the temperature variety region along the sensing fiber can be realized using chaotic pulse clusters.The proposed demodulation scheme can enhance the signal-to-noise ratio by improving the correlation between the chaotic reference and the chaotic Raman anti-Stokes scattering signals.The experiment achieved a sensing spatial resolution of 30 cm at a distributed temperature-sensing distance of∼6.0 km.Furthermore,we explored the influence of chaotic pulse width and detector bandwidth on the sensing spatial resolution.In addition,the theoretical experiments proved that the sensing spatial resolution in the proposed scheme was independent of the pulse width and sensing distance.
文摘Duality analysis of time series and complex networks has been a frontier topic during the last several decades.According to some recent approaches in this direction,the intrinsic dynamics of typical nonlinear systems can be better characterized by considering the related nonlinear time series from the perspective of networks science.In this paper,the associated network family of the unified piecewise-linear(PWL)chaotic family,which can bridge the gap of the PWL chaotic Lorenz system and the PWL chaotic Chen system,was firstly constructed and analyzed.We constructed the associated network family via the original and the modified frequency-degree mapping strategy,as well as the classical visibility graph and horizontal visibility graph strategy,after removing the transient states.Typical related network characteristics,including the network fractal dimension,of the associated network family,are computed with changes of single key parameter a.These characteristic vectors of the network are also compared with the largest Lyapunov exponent(LLE)vector of the related original dynamical system.It can be found that,some network characteristics are highly correlated with LLE vector of the original nonlinear system,i.e.,there is an internal consistency between the largest Lyapunov exponents,some typical associated network characteristics,and the related network fractal dimension index.Numerical results show that the modified frequency-degree mapping strategy can demonstrate highest correlation,which means it can behave better to capture the intrinsic characteristics of the unified PWL chaotic family.

文摘This paper proposes a universal impulse-function-based method for extending discrete chaotic maps,enabling flexible construction of multicavity chaotic attractors.The proposed method achieves one-directional(1D)/two-directional(2D)extensions without introducing additional nonlinear terms or altering system stability.Theoretically,the cavity quantity in arbitrary directions is controlled by adjusting impulse levels N,while the amplitude regulation is implemented through modifications to the proportionality parameter r.Theoretical analyses,including Lyapunov exponents(LEs)and bifurcation diagrams,are conducted,confirming that the extended maps retain the intrinsic dynamics of five rational map classes.The field-programmable gate array(FPGA)implementation results are consistent with the numerical simulation results,verifying the correctness of the theoretical analysis.The method enables the expansion of unipolar attractors and enhances entropy metrics,offering a robust framework for applications in secure communication,encryption,and chaos-based technologies.
文摘Addressing the complex issue of emergency resource distribution center site selection in uncertain environments, this study was conducted to comprehensively consider factors such as uncertainty parameters and the urgency of demand at disaster-affected sites. Firstly, urgency cost, economic cost, and transportation distance cost were identified as key objectives. The study applied fuzzy theory integration to construct a triangular fuzzy multi-objective site selection decision model. Next, the defuzzification theory transformed the fuzzy decision model into a precise one. Subsequently, an improved Chaotic Quantum Multi-Objective Harris Hawks Optimization (CQ-MOHHO) algorithm was proposed to solve the model. The CQ-MOHHO algorithm was shown to rapidly produce high-quality Pareto front solutions and identify optimal site selection schemes for emergency resource distribution centers through case studies. This outcome verified the feasibility and efficacy of the site selection decision model and the CQ-MOHHO algorithm. To further assess CQ-MOHHO’s performance, Zitzler-Deb-Thiele (ZDT) test functions, commonly used in multi-objective optimization, were employed. Comparisons with Multi-Objective Harris Hawks Optimization (MOHHO), Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II), and Multi-Objective Grey Wolf Optimizer (MOGWO) using Generational Distance (GD), Hypervolume (HV), and Inverted Generational Distance (IGD) metrics showed that CQ-MOHHO achieved superior global search ability, faster convergence, and higher solution quality. The CQ-MOHHO algorithm efficiently achieved a balance between multiple objectives, providing decision-makers with satisfactory solutions and a valuable reference for researching and applying emergency site selection problems.
文摘This paper presents both analytical and numerical studies of the conservative Sawada-Kotera equation and its dissipative generalization,equations known for their soliton solutions and rich chaotic dynamics.These models offer valuable insights into nonlinear wave propagation,with applications in fluid dynamics and materials science,including systems such as liquid crystals and ferrofluids.It is shown that the conservative Sawada-Kotera equation supports traveling wave solutions corresponding to elliptic limit cycles,as well as two-and three-dimensional invariant tori surrounding these cycles in the associated ordinary differential equation(ODE)system.For the dissipative generalized Sawada-Kotera equation,chaotic wave behavior is observed.The transition to chaos in the corresponding ODE systemfollows a universal bifurcation scenario consistent with the framework established by FShM(Feigenbaum-Sharkovsky-Magnitskii)theory.Notably,this study demonstrates for the first time that the conservative Sawada-Kotera equation can exhibit complex quasi-periodic wave solutions,while its dissipative counterpart admits an infinite number of stable periodic and chaotic waveforms.

文摘Based on the idea of tracking control and stability theory of fractional-order systems, a controller is designed to synchronize the fractional-order chaotic system with chaotic systems of integer orders, and synchronize the different fractional-order chaotic systems. The proposed synchronization approach in this paper shows that the synchronization between fractional-order chaotic systems and chaotic systems of integer orders can be achieved, and the synchronization between different fractional-order chaotic systems can also be realized. Numerical experiments show that the present method works very well.
文摘The methods to determine time delays and embedding dimensions in the phase space delay reconstruction of multivariate chaotic time series are proposed. Three nonlinear prediction methods of multivariate chaotic time series including local mean prediction, local linear prediction and BP neural networks prediction are considered. The simulation results obtained by the Lorenz system show that no matter what nonlinear prediction method is used, the prediction error of multivariate chaotic time series is much smaller than the prediction error of univariate time series, even if half of the data of univariate time series are used in multivariate time series. The results also verify that methods to determine the time delays and the embedding dimensions are correct from the view of minimizing the prediction error.

文摘This paper presents a new 3D quadratic autonomous chaotic system which contains five system parameters and three quadratic cross-product terms,and the system can generate a single four-wing chaotic attractor with wide parameter ranges. Through theoretical analysis,the Hopf bifurcation processes are proved to arise at certain equilibrium points.Numerical bifurcation analysis shows that the system has many interesting complex dynamical behaviours;the system trajectory can evolve to a chaotic attractor from a periodic orbit or a fixed point as the proper parameter varies. Finally,an analog electronic circuit is designed to physically realize the chaotic system;the existence of four-wing chaotic attractor is verified by the analog circuit realization.
