文摘Vulnerability assessment is a systematic process to identify security gaps in the design and evaluation of physical protection systems.Adversarial path planning is a widely used method for identifying potential vulnerabilities and threats to the security and resilience of critical infrastructures.However,achieving efficient path optimization in complex large-scale three-dimensional(3D)scenes remains a significant challenge for vulnerability assessment.This paper introduces a novel A^(*)-algorithmic framework for 3D security modeling and vulnerability assessment.Within this framework,the 3D facility models were first developed in 3ds Max and then incorporated into Unity for A^(*)heuristic pathfinding.The A^(*)-heuristic pathfinding algorithm was implemented with a geometric probability model to refine the detection and distance fields and achieve a rational approximation of the cost to reach the goal.An admissible heuristic is ensured by incorporating the minimum probability of detection(P_(D)^(min))and diagonal distance to estimate the heuristic function.The 3D A^(*)heuristic search was demonstrated using a hypothetical laboratory facility,where a comparison was also carried out between the A^(*)and Dijkstra algorithms for optimal path identification.Comparative results indicate that the proposed A^(*)-heuristic algorithm effectively identifies the most vulnerable adversarial pathfinding with high efficiency.Finally,the paper discusses hidden phenomena and open issues in efficient 3D pathfinding for security applications.

文摘Aimed at the problems of a traditional ant colony algorithm,such as the path search direction and field of view,an inability to find the shortest path,a propensity toward deadlock and an unsmooth path,an ant colony algorithm for use in a new environment is proposed.First,the feature points of an obstacle are extracted to preprocess the grid map environment,which can avoid entering a trap and solve the deadlock problem.Second,these feature points are used as pathfinding access nodes to reduce the node access,with more moving directions to be selected,and the locations of the feature points to be selected determine the range of the pathfinding field of view.Then,based on the feature points,an unequal distribution of pheromones and a two-way parallel path search are used to improve the construction efficiency of the solution,an improved heuristic function is used to enhance the guiding role of the path search,and the pheromone volatilization coefficient is dynamically adjusted to avoid a premature convergence of the algorithm.Third,a Bezier curve is used to smooth the shortest path obtained.Finally,using grid maps with a different complexity and different scales,a simulation comparing the results of the proposed algorithm with those of traditional and other improved ant colony algorithms verifies its feasibility and superiority.

文摘This paper proposes a redundancy optimization method for smart grid Advanced Metering Infrastructure(AMI) to realize economy and reliability targets.AMI is a crucial part of the smart grid to measure,collect,and analyze data about energy usage and power quality from customer premises.From the communication perspective,the AMI consists of smart meters,Home Area Network(HAN) gateways and data concentrators;in particular,the redundancy optimization problem focus on deciding which data concentrator needs redundancy.In order to solve the problem,we first develop a quantitative analysis model for the network economic loss caused by the data concentrator failures.Then,we establish a complete redundancy optimization model,which comprehensively consider the factors of reliability and economy.Finally,an advanced redundancy deployment method based on genetic algorithm(GA) is developed to solve the proposed problem.The simulation results testify that the proposed redundancy optimization method is capable to build a reliable and economic smart grid communication network.
