The iterative variables are partitioned into two groups. Then simple optimization approaches can be employed for each subset of variables, where optimization of configuration variables is simplified as a linear least-squares problem (LSP). Convergence of current symmetric localization algorithms is discussed firstly. It is shown that simply taking the solution of the LSP as start of the next iteration may result in divergence or incorrect convergence. Therefore in our enhanced algorithms, line search is performed along the solution of the LSP in order to find a better point reducing the value of objective function. We choose this point as start of the next iteration. Better convergence is verified by numerical simulation. Besides, imposing boundary constraints on the LSP proves to be another efficient way.展开更多

Many methods are based on the optimization of modularity. The algorithm proposed by Blondel et al. （Blondel V D, Guillaume J L, Lambiotte R and Lefebvre E 2008 J. Star. Mech. 10 10008） is one of the most widely used methods because of its good performance, especially in the big data era. In this paper we make some improvements to this algorithm in correctness and performance. By tests we see that different node orders bring different performances and different community structures. We find some node swings in different communities that influence the performance. So we design some strategies on the sweeping order of node to reduce the computing cost made by repetition swing. We introduce a new concept of overlapping degree （OV） that shows the strength of connection between nodes. Three improvement strategies are proposed that are based on constant OV, adaptive OV, and adaptive weighted OV, respectively. Experiments on synthetic datasets and real datasets are made, showing that our improved strategies can improve the performance and correctness.展开更多

To accelerate the information exchanges between check nodes and variable nodes, the bit-flipping step and the check node updating step of the original algorithm are parallelized. The simulation experiments demonstrate that the improved PWBF algorithm provides about 0. 1 to 0. 3 dB coding gain over the original PWBF algorithm. And the improved algorithm achieves a higher convergence rate. The choice of the threshold is also discussed, which is used to determine whether a bit should be flipped during each iteration. The appropriate threshold can ensure that most error bits be flipped, and keep the right ones untouched at the same time. The improvement is particularly effective for decoding quasi-cyclic low-density paritycheck（QC-LDPC） codes.展开更多

文摘Reliable Cluster Head(CH)selectionbased routing protocols are necessary for increasing the packet transmission efficiency with optimal path discovery that never introduces degradation over the transmission reliability.In this paper,Hybrid Golden Jackal,and Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm(HGJIWOA)is proposed as an effective and optimal routing protocol that guarantees efficient routing of data packets in the established between the CHs and the movable sink.This HGJIWOA included the phases of Dynamic Lens-Imaging Learning Strategy and Novel Update Rules for determining the reliable route essential for data packets broadcasting attained through fitness measure estimation-based CH selection.The process of CH selection achieved using Golden Jackal Optimization Algorithm(GJOA)completely depends on the factors of maintainability,consistency,trust,delay,and energy.The adopted GJOA algorithm play a dominant role in determining the optimal path of routing depending on the parameter of reduced delay and minimal distance.It further utilized Improved Whale Optimisation Algorithm(IWOA)for forwarding the data from chosen CHs to the BS via optimized route depending on the parameters of energy and distance.It also included a reliable route maintenance process that aids in deciding the selected route through which data need to be transmitted or re-routed.The simulation outcomes of the proposed HGJIWOA mechanism with different sensor nodes confirmed an improved mean throughput of 18.21%,sustained residual energy of 19.64%with minimized end-to-end delay of 21.82%,better than the competitive CH selection approaches.

文摘Energy storage power plants are critical in balancing power supply and demand.However,the scheduling of these plants faces significant challenges,including high network transmission costs and inefficient inter-device energy utilization.To tackle these challenges,this study proposes an optimal scheduling model for energy storage power plants based on edge computing and the improved whale optimization algorithm(IWOA).The proposed model designs an edge computing framework,transferring a large share of data processing and storage tasks to the network edge.This architecture effectively reduces transmission costs by minimizing data travel time.In addition,the model considers demand response strategies and builds an objective function based on the minimization of the sum of electricity purchase cost and operation cost.The IWOA enhances the optimization process by utilizing adaptive weight adjustments and an optimal neighborhood perturbation strategy,preventing the algorithm from converging to suboptimal solutions.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheduling model maximizes the flexibility of the energy storage plant,facilitating efficient charging and discharging.It successfully achieves peak shaving and valley filling for both electrical and heat loads,promoting the effective utilization of renewable energy sources.The edge-computing framework significantly reduces transmission delays between energy devices.Furthermore,IWOA outperforms traditional algorithms in optimizing the objective function.

文摘Community detection methods have been used in computer, sociology, physics, biology, and brain information science areas. Many methods are based on the optimization of modularity. The algorithm proposed by Blondel et al. （Blondel V D, Guillaume J L, Lambiotte R and Lefebvre E 2008 J. Star. Mech. 10 10008） is one of the most widely used methods because of its good performance, especially in the big data era. In this paper we make some improvements to this algorithm in correctness and performance. By tests we see that different node orders bring different performances and different community structures. We find some node swings in different communities that influence the performance. So we design some strategies on the sweeping order of node to reduce the computing cost made by repetition swing. We introduce a new concept of overlapping degree （OV） that shows the strength of connection between nodes. Three improvement strategies are proposed that are based on constant OV, adaptive OV, and adaptive weighted OV, respectively. Experiments on synthetic datasets and real datasets are made, showing that our improved strategies can improve the performance and correctness.
文摘Aimed at the long and narrow geometric features and poor generalization ability of the damage detection in conveyor belts with steel rope cores using the X-ray image,a detection method of damage X-ray image is proposed based on the improved fully convolutional one-stage object detection(FCOS)algorithm.The regression performance of bounding boxes was optimized by introducing the complete intersection over union loss function into the improved algorithm.The feature fusion network structure is modified by adding adaptive fusion paths to the feature fusion network structure,which makes full use of the features of accurate localization and semantics of multi-scale feature fusion networks.Finally,the network structure was trained and validated by using the X-ray image dataset of damages in conveyor belts with steel rope cores provided by a flaw detection equipment manufacturer.In addition,the data enhancement methods such as rotating,mirroring,and scaling,were employed to enrich the image dataset so that the model is adequately trained.Experimental results showed that the improved FCOS algorithm promoted the precision rate and the recall rate by 20.9%and 14.8%respectively,compared with the original algorithm.Meanwhile,compared with Fast R-CNN,Faster R-CNN,SSD,and YOLOv3,the improved FCOS algorithm has obvious advantages;detection precision rate and recall rate of the modified network reached 95.8%and 97.0%respectively.Furthermore,it demonstrated a higher detection accuracy without affecting the speed.The results of this work have some reference significance for the automatic identification and detection of steel core conveyor belt damage.

文摘To improve the quality of the illumination distribution,one novel indoor visible light communication(VLC)system,which is jointly assisted by the angle-diversity transceivers and simultaneous transmission and reflection-intelligent reflecting surface(STAR-IRS),has been proposed in this work.A Harris Hawks optimizer algorithm(HHOA)-based two-stage alternating iteration algorithm(TSAIA)is presented to jointly optimize the magnitude and uniformity of the received optical power.Besides,to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed strategy,several benchmark schemes are simulated and compared.Results showed that compared to other optimization strategies,the TSAIA scheme is more capable of balancing the average value and variance of the received optical power,when the maximal ratio combining(MRC)strategy is adopted at the receiver.Moreover,as the number of the STAR-IRS elements increases,the optical power variance of the system optimized by TSAIA scheme would become smaller while the average optical power would get larger.This study will benefit the design of received optical power distribution for indoor VLC systems.
文摘With the rapid development of intelligent navigation technology,efficient and safe path planning for mobile robots has become a core requirement.To address the challenges of complex dynamic environments,this paper proposes an intelligent path planning framework based on grid map modeling.First,an improved Safe and Smooth A*(SSA*)algorithm is employed for global path planning.By incorporating obstacle expansion and cornerpoint optimization,the proposed SSA*enhances the safety and smoothness of the planned path.Then,a Partitioned Dynamic Window Approach(PDWA)is integrated for local planning,which is triggered when dynamic or sudden static obstacles appear,enabling real-time obstacle avoidance and path adjustment.A unified objective function is constructed,considering path length,safety,and smoothness comprehensively.Multiple simulation experiments are conducted on typical port grid maps.The results demonstrate that the improved SSA*significantly reduces the number of expanded nodes and computation time in static environmentswhile generating smoother and safer paths.Meanwhile,the PDWA exhibits strong real-time performance and robustness in dynamic scenarios,achieving shorter paths and lower planning times compared to other graph search algorithms.The proposedmethodmaintains stable performance across maps of different scales and various port scenarios,verifying its practicality and potential for wider application.

文摘An improved parallel weighted bit-flipping（PWBF） algorithm is presented. To accelerate the information exchanges between check nodes and variable nodes, the bit-flipping step and the check node updating step of the original algorithm are parallelized. The simulation experiments demonstrate that the improved PWBF algorithm provides about 0. 1 to 0. 3 dB coding gain over the original PWBF algorithm. And the improved algorithm achieves a higher convergence rate. The choice of the threshold is also discussed, which is used to determine whether a bit should be flipped during each iteration. The appropriate threshold can ensure that most error bits be flipped, and keep the right ones untouched at the same time. The improvement is particularly effective for decoding quasi-cyclic low-density paritycheck（QC-LDPC） codes.

文摘DV-Hop localization algorithm has greater localization error which estimates distance from an unknown node to the different anchor nodes by using estimated average size of a hop to achieve the location of the unknown node.So an improved DV-Hop localization algorithm based on correctional average size of a hop,HDCDV-Hop algorithm,is proposed.The improved algorithm corrects the estimated distance between the unknown node and different anchor nodes based on fractional hop count information and relatively accurate coordinates of the anchor nodes information,and it uses the improved Differential Evolution algorithm to get the estimate location of unknown nodes so as to further reduce the localization error.Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm have lower localization error and higher localization accuracy compared with the original DV-Hop algorithm and other classical improved algorithms.
