To deal with the optimal design of a redundantly actuated parallel robot used for ankle rehabilitation, a methodology of dimensional synthesis based on multi-objective optimization is presented. First, the dimensional synthesis of the redundant parallel robot is formulated as a nonlinear constrained multi-objective optimization problem. Then four objective functions, separately reflecting occupied space, input/output transmission and torque performances, and multi-criteria constraints, such as dimension, interference and kinematics, are defined. In consideration of the passive exercise of plantar/dorsiflexion requiring large output moment, a torque index is proposed. To cope with the actuation redundancy of the parallel robot, a new output transmission index is defined as well. The multi-objective optimization problem is solved by using a modified Differential Evolution（DE） algorithm, which is characterized by new selection and mutation strategies. Meanwhile, a special penalty method is presented to tackle the multi-criteria constraints. Finally, numerical experiments for different optimization algorithms are implemented. The computation results show that the proposed indices of output transmission and torque, and constraint handling are effective for the redundant parallel robot; the modified DE algorithm is superior to the other tested algorithms, in terms of the ability of global search and the number of non-dominated solutions. The proposed methodology of multi-objective optimization can be also applied to the dimensional synthesis of other redundantly actuated parallel robots only with rotational movements.展开更多

A comprehensive reconfiguration model is presented in this paper, in which the restored loads, switch frequency and generator efficiency are taken into account. In this model, analytic hierarchy process(AHP) is proposed to determine the coefficients of these objective functions.

The CNOP is the maximal value of a constrained optimization problem with a constraint condition, such as a ball constraint. The success of the DE algorithm lies in its ability to handle a non-differentiable and nonlinear cost function. In this study, the DE algorithm and the traditional optimization algorithms used to obtain the CNOPs are compared by analyzing a theoretical grassland ecosystem model and a dynamic global vegetation model. This study shows that the CNOPs generated by the DE algorithm are similar to those by the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm and the spectral projected gradients (SPG2) algorithm. If the cost function is non-differentiable, the CNOPs could also be caught with the DE algorithm. The numerical results suggest the DE algorithm can be employed to calculate the CNOP, especially when the cost function is non-differentiable.展开更多

It is difficult to adapt the speed of packet matching with packets linear forwarding by traditional algorithms. The purpose of this paper is to develop a novel algorithm of packet matching based on improving differential evolutionary algorithm, which also combines with classic packets matching algorithms to improve the performance of algorithm.

For the first time, evolutionary algorithm is used to solve the network data packet forwarding, and packets can be forwarded at the linear speed. In addition, this new algorithm is universal, so it can be adapted for many equipment.展开更多

文摘Dimensional synthesis is one of the most difficult issues in the field of parallel robots with actuation redundancy. To deal with the optimal design of a redundantly actuated parallel robot used for ankle rehabilitation, a methodology of dimensional synthesis based on multi-objective optimization is presented. First, the dimensional synthesis of the redundant parallel robot is formulated as a nonlinear constrained multi-objective optimization problem. Then four objective functions, separately reflecting occupied space, input/output transmission and torque performances, and multi-criteria constraints, such as dimension, interference and kinematics, are defined. In consideration of the passive exercise of plantar/dorsiflexion requiring large output moment, a torque index is proposed. To cope with the actuation redundancy of the parallel robot, a new output transmission index is defined as well. The multi-objective optimization problem is solved by using a modified Differential Evolution（DE） algorithm, which is characterized by new selection and mutation strategies. Meanwhile, a special penalty method is presented to tackle the multi-criteria constraints. Finally, numerical experiments for different optimization algorithms are implemented. The computation results show that the proposed indices of output transmission and torque, and constraint handling are effective for the redundant parallel robot; the modified DE algorithm is superior to the other tested algorithms, in terms of the ability of global search and the number of non-dominated solutions. The proposed methodology of multi-objective optimization can be also applied to the dimensional synthesis of other redundantly actuated parallel robots only with rotational movements.

文摘Fault reconfiguration of shipboard power system is viewed as a typical nonlinear and multi-objective combinatorial optimization problem. A comprehensive reconfiguration model is presented in this paper, in which the restored loads, switch frequency and generator efficiency are taken into account. In this model, analytic hierarchy process(AHP) is proposed to determine the coefficients of these objective functions. Meanwhile, a quantum differential evolution algorithm with triple quantum bit code is proposed. This algorithm aiming at the characteristics of shipboard power system is different from the normal quantum bit representation. The individual polymorphic expression is realized, and the convergence performance can be further enhanced in combination with the global parallel search capacity of differential evolution algorithm and the superposition properties of quantum theory. The local optimum can be avoided by dynamic rotation gate. The validity of algorithm and model is verified by the simulation examples.

文摘A projected skill is adopted by use of the differential evolution (DE) algorithm to calculate a conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP). The CNOP is the maximal value of a constrained optimization problem with a constraint condition, such as a ball constraint. The success of the DE algorithm lies in its ability to handle a non-differentiable and nonlinear cost function. In this study, the DE algorithm and the traditional optimization algorithms used to obtain the CNOPs are compared by analyzing a theoretical grassland ecosystem model and a dynamic global vegetation model. This study shows that the CNOPs generated by the DE algorithm are similar to those by the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm and the spectral projected gradients (SPG2) algorithm. If the cost function is non-differentiable, the CNOPs could also be caught with the DE algorithm. The numerical results suggest the DE algorithm can be employed to calculate the CNOP, especially when the cost function is non-differentiable.

文摘The performance of network equipments, such as firewall, router, etc., is decided by the efficiency of patch matching. It is difficult to adapt the speed of packet matching with packets linear forwarding by traditional algorithms. The purpose of this paper is to develop a novel algorithm of packet matching based on improving differential evolutionary algorithm, which also combines with classic packets matching algorithms to improve the performance of algorithm. For the sake of objectivity, the statistics method was used to compute the fitting value. Experiments showed that this new algorithm effectively improved the performance in the speed and storage space, as compared with the traditional one. For the first time, evolutionary algorithm is used to solve the network data packet forwarding, and packets can be forwarded at the linear speed. In addition, this new algorithm is universal, so it can be adapted for many equipment.

文摘Two general approaches are adopted in solving dynamic optimization problems in chemical processes, namely, the analytical and numerical methods. The numerical method, which is based on heuristic algorithms, has been widely used. An approach that combines differential evolution （DE） algorithm and control vector parameteri- zation （CVP） is proposed in this paper. In the proposed CVP, control variables are approximated with polynomials based on state variables and time in the entire time interval. Region reduction strategy is used in DE to reduce the width of the search region, which improves the computing efficiency. The results of the case studies demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the oroposed methods.

文摘Due to the geological body uncertainty,the identification of the surrounding rock parameters in the tunnel construction process is of great significance to the calculation of tunnel stability.The ubiquitous-joint model and three-dimensional numerical simulation have advantages in the parameter identification of surrounding rock with weak planes,but conventional methods have certain problems,such as a large number of parameters and large time consumption.To solve the problems,this study combines the orthogonal design,Gaussian process(GP)regression,and difference evolution(DE)optimization,and it constructs the parameters identification method of the jointed surrounding rock.The calculation process of parameters identification of a tunnel jointed surrounding rock based on the GP optimized by the DE includes the following steps.First,a three-dimensional numerical simulation based on the ubiquitous-joint model is conducted according to the orthogonal and uniform design parameters combing schemes,where the model input consists of jointed rock parameters and model output is the information on the surrounding rock displacement and stress.Then,the GP regress model optimized by DE is trained by the data samples.Finally,the GP model is integrated into the DE algorithm,and the absolute differences in the displacement and stress between calculated and monitored values are used as the objective function,while the parameters of the jointed surrounding rock are used as variables and identified.The proposed method is verified by the experiments with a joint rock surface in the Dadongshan tunnel,which is located in Dalian,China.The obtained calculation and analysis results are as follows:CR=0.9,F=0.6,NP=100,and the difference strategy DE/Best/1 is recommended.The results of the back analysis are compared with the field monitored values,and the relative error is 4.58%,which is satisfactory.The algorithm influencing factors are also discussed,and it is found that the local correlation coefficientσf and noise standard deviationσn affected the prediction accuracy of the GP model.The results show that the proposed method is feasible and can achieve high identification precision.The study provides an effective reference for parameter identification of jointed surrounding rock in a tunnel.

文摘This article mainly investigates the fuzzy optimization robust control issue for nonlinear networked systems characterized by the interval type-2(IT2)fuzzy technique under a differential evolution algorithm.To provide a more reasonable utilization of the constrained communication channel,a novel adaptive memory event-triggered(AMET)mechanism is developed,where two event-triggered thresholds can be dynamically adjusted in the light of the current system information and the transmitted historical data.Sufficient conditions with less conservative design of the fuzzy imperfect premise matching(IPM)controller are presented by introducing the Wirtinger-based integral inequality,the information of membership functions(MFs)and slack matrices.Subsequently,under the IPM policy,a new MFs intelligent optimization technique that takes advantage of the differential evolution algorithm is first provided for IT2 TakagiSugeno(T-S)fuzzy systems to update the fuzzy controller MFs in real-time and achieve a better system control effect.Finally,simulation results demonstrate that the proposed control scheme can obtain better system performance in the case of using fewer communication resources.

文摘A novel nonlinear gray transform method is proposed to enhance the contrast of a typhoon cloud image.Generally,the typhoon cloud image obtained by a satellite cannot be directly used to make an accurate prediction of the typhoon＇s center or intensity because the contrast of the received typhoon cloud image may be bad.Our aim is to extrude the typhoon＇s eye in the typhoon cloud image.A normalized arc-tangent transformation operation is designed to enhance global contrast of the typhoon cloud image.Differential evolution algorithm is used to choose the optimal nonlinear transform parameter.Finally,geodesic activity contour model is used to extract the typhoon＇s eye to verify the performance of the proposed method.Experimental results show that the proposed method can efficiently enhance the global contrast of the typhoon cloud image while greatly extruding the typhoon＇s eye.
