For each edge uvassign the label f(u)f(v)(modk). f is called a k-product cordial labeling if | vf(i)−vf(j) |≤1, and | ef(i)−ef(j) |≤1, i,j∈{ 0,1,⋯,k−1 }, where vf(x)and ef(x)denote the number of vertices and edges respectively labeled with x (x=0,1,⋯,k−1). Motivated by this concept, we further studied and established that several families of graphs admit k-product cordial labeling. In this paper, we show that the path graphs Pnadmit k-product cordial labeling.展开更多

This method includes two steps: the construction of network and multipath searching. The construction of network proceeds in three phases: the skeleton extraction of the configuration space, the judgment of the cross points in the skeleton and how to link the cross points to form a network. Multipath searching makes use of the network and iterative penalty method (IPM) to plan multi-paths, and adjusts the planar paths to satisfy the requirement of maneuverability of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). In addition, a new height planning method is proposed to deal with the height planning of 3D route. The proposed algorithm can find multiple paths automatically according to distribution of terrain and threat areas with high efficiency. The height planning can make 3D route following the terrain. The simulation experiment illustrates the feasibility of the proposed method.展开更多

Using the localization of power networks, the power grid can be divided into several divisions of sub-networks in which, the connection of the elements is stronger than the elements outside of that division. By using our proposed method, the probable important lines in the network can be identified to do the placement of the protection apparatus and planning for the extra extensions in the system. In this paper, we have studied the pathfinding strategies in most vulnerable line detection in a partitioned network. The method has been tested on IEEE39-bus system which is partitioned using hierarchical spectral clustering to show the feasibility of the proposed method.展开更多
