A latent factor analysis(LFA) model is capable of conducting efficient representation learning to an HDI matrix,whose hyper-parameter adaptation can be implemented through a particle swarm optimizer(PSO) to meet scalable requirements.However, conventional PSO is limited by its premature issues,which leads to the accuracy loss of a resultant LFA model. To address this thorny issue, this study merges the information of each particle's state migration into its evolution process following the principle of a generalized momentum method for improving its search ability, thereby building a state-migration particle swarm optimizer(SPSO), whose theoretical convergence is rigorously proved in this study. It is then incorporated into an LFA model for implementing efficient hyper-parameter adaptation without accuracy loss. Experiments on six HDI matrices indicate that an SPSO-incorporated LFA model outperforms state-of-the-art LFA models in terms of prediction accuracy for missing data of an HDI matrix with competitive computational efficiency.Hence, SPSO's use ensures efficient and reliable hyper-parameter adaptation in an LFA model, thus ensuring practicality and accurate representation learning for HDI matrices.展开更多

The controller is called DE-PID controller. To overcome the disadvantages of the integral performance criteria in the frequency domain such as IAE, ISE, and ITSE, a new performance criterion in the time domain is proposed. The optimization procedures employing the DE algorithm to search the optimal or near optimal PID controller parameters of a control system are demonstrated in detail. Three typical control systems are chosen to test and evaluate the adaptation and robustness of the proposed DE-PID controller. The simulation results show that the proposed approach has superior features of easy implementation, stable convergence characteristic, and good computational efficiency. Compared with the ZN, GA, and ASA, the proposed design method is indeed more efficient and robust in improving the step response of a control system.展开更多

文摘In numerous real-world healthcare applications,handling incomplete medical data poses significant challenges for missing value imputation and subsequent clustering or classification tasks.Traditional approaches often rely on statistical methods for imputation,which may yield suboptimal results and be computationally intensive.This paper aims to integrate imputation and clustering techniques to enhance the classification of incomplete medical data with improved accuracy.Conventional classification methods are ill-suited for incomplete medical data.To enhance efficiency without compromising accuracy,this paper introduces a novel approach that combines imputation and clustering for the classification of incomplete data.Initially,the linear interpolation imputation method alongside an iterative Fuzzy c-means clustering method is applied and followed by a classification algorithm.The effectiveness of the proposed approach is evaluated using multiple performance metrics,including accuracy,precision,specificity,and sensitivity.The encouraging results demonstrate that our proposed method surpasses classical approaches across various performance criteria.

文摘Due to the uneven seabed and heaving of soil during pumping,incomplete soil plugs may occur during the installation of bucket foundations,and the impacts on the bearing capacities of bucket foundations need to be evaluated.In this paper,the contact ratio(the ratio of the top diameter of the soil plug to the diameter of the bucket)and the soil plug ratio(the ratio of the soil heave height to the skirt height)are defined to describe the shape and size of the incomplete soil plug.Then,finite element models are established to investigate the bearing capacities of bucket foundations with incomplete soil plugs and the influences of the contact ratios,and the soil plug ratios on the bearing capacities are analyzed.The results show that the vertical bearing capacity of bucket foundations in homogeneous soil continuously improves with the increase of the contact ratio.However,in normally consolidated soil,the vertical bearing capacity barely changes when the contact ratio is smaller than 0.75,while the bearing capacity suddenly increases when the contact ratio increases to 1 due to the change of failure mode.The contact ratio hardly affects the horizontal bearing capacity of bucket foundations.Moreover,the moment bearing capacity improves with the increase of the contact ratio for small aspect ratios,but hardly varies with increasing contact ratio for aspect ratios larger than 0.5.Consequently,the reduction coefficient method is proposed based on this analysis to calculate the bearing capacities of bucket foundations considering the influence of incomplete soil plugs.The comparison results show that the proposed reduction coefficient method can be used to evaluate the influences of incomplete soil plug on the bearing capacities of bucket foundations.

文摘High-dimensional and incomplete(HDI) matrices are primarily generated in all kinds of big-data-related practical applications. A latent factor analysis(LFA) model is capable of conducting efficient representation learning to an HDI matrix,whose hyper-parameter adaptation can be implemented through a particle swarm optimizer(PSO) to meet scalable requirements.However, conventional PSO is limited by its premature issues,which leads to the accuracy loss of a resultant LFA model. To address this thorny issue, this study merges the information of each particle's state migration into its evolution process following the principle of a generalized momentum method for improving its search ability, thereby building a state-migration particle swarm optimizer(SPSO), whose theoretical convergence is rigorously proved in this study. It is then incorporated into an LFA model for implementing efficient hyper-parameter adaptation without accuracy loss. Experiments on six HDI matrices indicate that an SPSO-incorporated LFA model outperforms state-of-the-art LFA models in terms of prediction accuracy for missing data of an HDI matrix with competitive computational efficiency.Hence, SPSO's use ensures efficient and reliable hyper-parameter adaptation in an LFA model, thus ensuring practicality and accurate representation learning for HDI matrices.

文摘Leaking data through screen-shooting has become the main way of modern leaks.Digital watermarking technology can trace the leaker through the watermark information after the data is leaked.The current screen-shooting watermarking scheme can resist part of the distortion in the screen-shooting process,but it faces two problems.On the one hand,the watermark capacity is small.On the other hand,when the shot watermarked image is incomplete,high watermark extraction accuracy cannot be guaranteed.Based on the above problems,we propose a resistant to incomplete shooting watermarking(Ri Sw)scheme.Specifically,we design a set of codecs that can embed binary images as watermarks into carrier images and extract them,which not only ensures good visual effects of watermarked image,but also greatly increases watermark capacity.To resist incomplete shooting,we propose an incomplete shooting layer to simulate the situation of incomplete shooting in the screen-shooting process.Robustness to incomplete shooting can be achieved through end-to-end training.Extensive experiments show that the scheme proposed in this paper has superior performance.Even if the watermarked image lacks 50%pixels,it can still maintain a stable extraction accuracy.

文摘This paper applies Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems to the evolution and development of human social systems.Although Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems originated in the field of mathematics,their influence has long extended beyond mathematics,making an impact on philosophy,systems science,and the humanities and social sciences.The paper analyzes the autonomy and completeness of human social systems,arguing that evolving human societies are generally self-consistent.However,if the completeness of a human social system is compromised,the system either maintains self-consistency,ceases to evolve forward,enters a death spiral,and eventually decays and disintegrates.Or the system addresses the completeness issue,enters a state of non-self-consistency,introduces new axioms,becomes self-governing again,and enters a new form.From the sociological perspective,this is articulated as social revolution-the system continues to evolve forward;the absence of social revolution-the system does not evolve forward(Jin,1988).
文摘According to the disease module hypothesis,the cellular components associated with a disease segregate in the same neighborhood of the human interactome,the map of biologically relevant molecular interactions.Yet,given the incompleteness of the interactome and the limited knowledge of disease-associated genes,it is not obvious if the available data have sufficient coverage to map out modules associated with each disease.
文摘According to the disease module hypothesis,the cellular components associated with a disease segregate in the same neighborhood of the human interactome,the map of biologically relevant molecular interactions.Yet,given the incompleteness of the interactome and the limited knowledge of disease-associated genes,it is not obvious if the available data have sufficient coverage to map out modules associated with each disease.Here we derive mathematical conditions for the identifiability of disease modules and show that the network-based location of each disease module determines its pathobiological relationship to other diseases.For example,diseases with overlapping network modules show significant coexpression patterns,symptom similarity,and comorbidity,whereas diseases residing in separated network neighborhoods are phenotypically distinct.These tools represent an interactome-based platform to predict molecular commonalities between phenotypically related diseases,even if they do not share primary disease genes.

文摘Colonoscopic polypectomy is extremely effective in protecting against colorectal cancers,and recognition of adenomas by colonoscopy is of paramount importance in preventing colorectal cancer(CRC)and CRC-associated mortality.Incomplete polyp resection(IPR)occurs routinely in medical practice following polypectomy.We conducted a comprehensive literature search to identify studies that reported on the potential risk factors for IPR using MEDLINE,EMBASE,and PubMed.Publication time was limited between January 2004 and July 2021.Our search revealed assessments of the position,morphology,and histologic variation of the polypsdas well as the relevant skills that may interfere with IPR.The included studies showed that colonic polyps with a diameter>20 mm and proximal in location should be dealt with cautiously.For smaller polyps,cold-snare polypectomy appeared to be the most effective method used to accomplish comprehensive polyp removal.In addition,endoscopist experience in narrow-band imaging in polyp detection were also associated with IPR.Therefore,polypectomy should be performed cautiously if the polyp growth is expected to be cancerous and situated in the proximal portion of the colon or rectum,and modalities should be standardized so as to lower the potential risk for IPR.

文摘To determine the optimal or near optimal parameters of PID controller with incomplete derivation, a novel design method based on differential evolution （DE） algorithm is presented. The controller is called DE-PID controller. To overcome the disadvantages of the integral performance criteria in the frequency domain such as IAE, ISE, and ITSE, a new performance criterion in the time domain is proposed. The optimization procedures employing the DE algorithm to search the optimal or near optimal PID controller parameters of a control system are demonstrated in detail. Three typical control systems are chosen to test and evaluate the adaptation and robustness of the proposed DE-PID controller. The simulation results show that the proposed approach has superior features of easy implementation, stable convergence characteristic, and good computational efficiency. Compared with the ZN, GA, and ASA, the proposed design method is indeed more efficient and robust in improving the step response of a control system.
