The satellite communication, as an important part of integrated information networks, is one of main approaches to acquire, process and distribute communication information and resources. In this paper, based on current researches of the satellite communication network, we put forward a 3-layer satellite communication network model based on the Software Defined Network (SDN). Meanwhile, to improve current routing policies of the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite communication network, we put forward an Adaptive Routing Algorithm (ARA) to sustain the shortest satellite communication link. Experiment results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce link distance and communication delay, and realize adaptive path planning.展开更多

For driven piles, the impact of the piling hammer induces compression and tension stresses in the piles. Hence, an important design consideration is to check that the strength of the pile is sufficient to resist the stresses caused by the impact of the pile hammer. Due to its complexity, pile drivability lacks a precise analytical solution with regard to the phenomena involved.In situations where measured data or numerical hypothetical results are available, neural networks stand out in mapping the nonlinear interactions and relationships between the system’s predictors and dependent responses. In addition, unlike most computational tools, no mathematical relationship assumption between the dependent and independent variables has to be made. Nevertheless, neural networks have been criticized for their long trial-and-error training process since the optimal configuration is not known a priori. This paper investigates the use of a fairly simple nonparametric regression algorithm known as multivariate adaptive regression splines（MARS）, as an alternative to neural networks, to approximate the relationship between the inputs and dependent response, and to mathematically interpret the relationship between the various parameters. In this paper, the Back propagation neural network（BPNN） and MARS models are developed for assessing pile drivability in relation to the prediction of the Maximum compressive stresses（MCS）, Maximum tensile stresses（MTS）, and Blow per foot（BPF）. A database of more than four thousand piles is utilized for model development and comparative performance between BPNN and MARS predictions.展开更多

To address unknown wheel longitudinal slipping problem for mobile robot, a RBF neural network approach based on whole model approximation is presented. The real-time data acquisition of inertial measure unit(IMU), encoders and other sensors is employed to get the mobile robot’s position and orientation in the movement, which is applied to compensate the unknown bounds of the longitudinal slipping using the adaptive technique. Both the simulation and experimental results prove that the control scheme possesses good practical performance and realize the motion control with unknown longitudinal slipping.展开更多

An adaptive output feedback NN tracking controller is designed by backstepping technique. NNs are used to approximate unknown functions dependent on time delay, Delay-dependent filters are introduced for state estimation. The domination method is used to deal with the smooth time-delay basis functions. The adaptive bounding technique is employed to estimate the upper bound of the NN approximation errors. Based on Lyapunov- Krasovskii functional, the semi-global uniform ultimate boundedness of all the signals in the closed-loop system is proved, The feasibility is investigated by two illustrative simulation examples.展开更多

Both the designed observer and controller are independent of time delay. Different from the existing results, where the upper bounding functions of time-delay terms are assumed to be known, we only use an NN to compensate for all unknown upper bounding functions without that assumption. The proposed design method is proved to be able to guarantee semi-global uniform ultimate boundedness of all the signals in the closed system, and the system output is proved to converge to a small neighborhood of the origin. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the control scheme.展开更多

文摘3D medical image reconstruction has significantly enhanced diagnostic accuracy,yet the reliance on densely sampled projection data remains a major limitation in clinical practice.Sparse-angle X-ray imaging,though safer and faster,poses challenges for accurate volumetric reconstruction due to limited spatial information.This study proposes a 3D reconstruction neural network based on adaptive weight fusion(AdapFusionNet)to achieve high-quality 3D medical image reconstruction from sparse-angle X-ray images.To address the issue of spatial inconsistency in multi-angle image reconstruction,an innovative adaptive fusion module was designed to score initial reconstruction results during the inference stage and perform weighted fusion,thereby improving the final reconstruction quality.The reconstruction network is built on an autoencoder(AE)framework and uses orthogonal-angle X-ray images(frontal and lateral projections)as inputs.The encoder extracts 2D features,which the decoder maps into 3D space.This study utilizes a lung CT dataset to obtain complete three-dimensional volumetric data,from which digitally reconstructed radiographs(DRR)are generated at various angles to simulate X-ray images.Since real-world clinical X-ray images rarely come with perfectly corresponding 3D“ground truth,”using CT scans as the three-dimensional reference effectively supports the training and evaluation of deep networks for sparse-angle X-ray 3D reconstruction.Experiments conducted on the LIDC-IDRI dataset with simulated X-ray images(DRR images)as training data demonstrate the superior performance of AdapFusionNet compared to other fusion methods.Quantitative results show that AdapFusionNet achieves SSIM,PSNR,and MAE values of 0.332,13.404,and 0.163,respectively,outperforming other methods(SingleViewNet:0.289,12.363,0.182;AvgFusionNet:0.306,13.384,0.159).Qualitative analysis further confirms that AdapFusionNet significantly enhances the reconstruction of lung and chest contours while effectively reducing noise during the reconstruction process.The findings demonstrate that AdapFusionNet offers significant advantages in 3D reconstruction of sparse-angle X-ray images.

文摘Tracking control of tendon-driven manipulators has become a prevalent research area.However,the existence of flexible elastic tendons generates substantial residual vibrations,resulting in difficulties for trajectory tracking control of the manipulator.This paper proposes the radial basis function neural network adaptive hierarchical sliding mode control(RBFNNA-HSMC)method,which combines the dynamic model of the elastic tendon-driven manipulator(ETDM)with radial basis neural network adaptive control and hierarchical sliding mode control technology.The aim is to achieve trajectory tracking control of ETDM even under conditions of model inaccuracy and disturbance.The Lyapunov stability theory demonstrates the stability of the proposed RBFNNA-HSM controller.In order to assess the effectiveness and adaptability of the proposed control method,simulations and experiments were performed on a two-DOF ETDM.The RBFNNA-HSM method shows superior tracking accuracy compared to traditional modelbased HSM control.The experiment shows that the maximum tracking error for ETDM double-joint trajectory tracking is below 2.593×10-3rad and 1.624×10-3rad,respectively.
文摘Reliable and efficient communication is essential for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)networks,especially in dynamic and resource-constrained environments such as disaster management,surveillance,and environmental monitoring.Frequent topology changes,high mobility,and limited energy availability pose significant challenges to maintaining stable and high-performance routing.Traditional routing protocols,such as Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector(AODV),Load-Balanced Optimized Predictive Ad hoc Routing(LB-OPAR),and Destination-Sequenced Distance Vector(DSDV),often experience performance degradation under such conditions.To address these limitations,this study evaluates the effectiveness of Dynamic Adaptive Routing(DAR),a protocol designed to adapt routing decisions in real time based on network dynamics and resource constraints.The research utilizes the Network Simulator 3(NS-3)platform to conduct controlled simulations,measuring key performance indicators such as latency,Packet Delivery Ratio(PDR),energy consumption,and throughput.Comparative analysis reveals that DAR consistently outperforms conventional protocols,achieving a 20%-30% reduction in latency,a 25% decrease in energy consumption,and marked improvements in throughput and PDR.These results highlight DAR’s ability to maintain high communication reliability while optimizing resource usage in challenging operational scenarios.By providing empirical evidence of DAR’s advantages in highly dynamic UAV network environments,this study contributes to advancing adaptive routing strategies.The findings not only validate DAR’s robustness and scalability but also lay the groundwork for integrating artificial intelligence-driven decision-making and real-world UAV deployment.Future work will explore cross-layer optimization,multi-UAV coordination,and experimental validation in field trials,aiming to further enhance communication resilience and energy efficiency in next-generation aerial networks.

文摘This article presents an adaptive fault-tolerant tracking control strategy for unknown affine nonlinear systems subject to actuator faults and external disturbances.To address the hyperparameter initialization challenges inherent in conventional neural network training,an improved self-organizing radial basis function neural network(SRBFNN)with an input-dependent variable structure is developed.Furthermore,a novel selforganizing RBFNN-based observer is introduced to estimate system states across all dimensions.Leveraging the reconstructed states,the proposed adaptive controller effectively compensates for all uncertainties,including estimation errors in the observer,ensuring accurate state tracking with reduced control effort.The uniform ultimate boundedness of all closed-loop signals and tracking errors is rigorously established via Lyapunov stability analysis.Finally,simulations on two different nonlinear systems comprehensively validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed control approach.

文摘A novel nonlinear adaptive control method is presented for a near-space hypersonic vehicle （NHV） in the presence of strong uncertainties and disturbances. The control law consists of the optimal generalized predictive controller （OGPC） and the functional link network （FLN） direct adaptive law. OGPC is a continuous-time nonlinear predictive control law. The FLN adaptive law is used to offset the unknown uncertainties and disturbances in a flight through the online learning. The learning process does not need any offline training phase. The stability analyses of the NHV close-loop system are provided and it is proved that the system error and the weight learning error are uniformly ultimately hounded. Simulation results show the satisfactory performance of the con- troller for the attitude tracking.
文摘A novel wavelet network based adaptive equalizer (WNBAE) is presented and the structure and stochastic gradient learning algorithm is given. The proposed WNBAE has better performance than that of the conventional linear transversal equalizer based on the LMS and the RLS algorithms, as well as that of the decision feedback equalizer based on the RLS algorithm, especially for MQAM digital communication reception systems over the nonlinear channels. In addition, it outperforms the BP neural network based adaptive equalizer slightly. However, it has a slow convergence rate and a high computational complexity. Several simulations are performed to evaluate the behavior of the WNBAE.
文摘Adaptive flight control technology, feedback linearization, model inversion theory are reviewed and the error dynamic characteristics are analyzed, and an adaptive on-line neural network attitude control system is presented. The model inversion is under the hover condition. And the adaptive control law based on the neural network is designed to guarantee the boundedness of tracking error and control signals. Simulation results demonstrate that the nonlinear neural network augmented model inversion can self-adapt to the uncertainty and modeling errors of unmanned helicopters. Results are compared while the parameters of PD controller and robustness items are changed.

文摘The integrated information network is a large capacity information network that integrates various communication platforms on the ground, at sea, in the air and in the deep air through the inter-satellite and satellite-ground links to acquire information accurately, process it quickly, and transmit it efficiently. The satellite communication, as an important part of integrated information networks, is one of main approaches to acquire, process and distribute communication information and resources. In this paper, based on current researches of the satellite communication network, we put forward a 3-layer satellite communication network model based on the Software Defined Network (SDN). Meanwhile, to improve current routing policies of the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite communication network, we put forward an Adaptive Routing Algorithm (ARA) to sustain the shortest satellite communication link. Experiment results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce link distance and communication delay, and realize adaptive path planning.
文摘Piles are long, slender structural elements used to transfer the loads from the superstructure through weak strata onto stiffer soils or rocks. For driven piles, the impact of the piling hammer induces compression and tension stresses in the piles. Hence, an important design consideration is to check that the strength of the pile is sufficient to resist the stresses caused by the impact of the pile hammer. Due to its complexity, pile drivability lacks a precise analytical solution with regard to the phenomena involved.In situations where measured data or numerical hypothetical results are available, neural networks stand out in mapping the nonlinear interactions and relationships between the system’s predictors and dependent responses. In addition, unlike most computational tools, no mathematical relationship assumption between the dependent and independent variables has to be made. Nevertheless, neural networks have been criticized for their long trial-and-error training process since the optimal configuration is not known a priori. This paper investigates the use of a fairly simple nonparametric regression algorithm known as multivariate adaptive regression splines（MARS）, as an alternative to neural networks, to approximate the relationship between the inputs and dependent response, and to mathematically interpret the relationship between the various parameters. In this paper, the Back propagation neural network（BPNN） and MARS models are developed for assessing pile drivability in relation to the prediction of the Maximum compressive stresses（MCS）, Maximum tensile stresses（MTS）, and Blow per foot（BPF）. A database of more than four thousand piles is utilized for model development and comparative performance between BPNN and MARS predictions.

文摘When the mobile robot performs certain motion tasks in complex environment, wheel slipping inevitably occurs due to the wet or icy road and other reasons, thus directly influences the motion control accuracy. To address unknown wheel longitudinal slipping problem for mobile robot, a RBF neural network approach based on whole model approximation is presented. The real-time data acquisition of inertial measure unit(IMU), encoders and other sensors is employed to get the mobile robot’s position and orientation in the movement, which is applied to compensate the unknown bounds of the longitudinal slipping using the adaptive technique. Both the simulation and experimental results prove that the control scheme possesses good practical performance and realize the motion control with unknown longitudinal slipping.

文摘A novel adaptive neural network （NN） output-feedback regulation algorithm for a class of nonlinear time-varying timedelay systems is proposed. Both the designed observer and controller are independent of time delay. Different from the existing results, where the upper bounding functions of time-delay terms are assumed to be known, we only use an NN to compensate for all unknown upper bounding functions without that assumption. The proposed design method is proved to be able to guarantee semi-global uniform ultimate boundedness of all the signals in the closed system, and the system output is proved to converge to a small neighborhood of the origin. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the control scheme.
