The linearized procedure for differentiable nonlinear programming problems can be naturally generalized to the quasi differential case. As in classical case so called constraint qualifications have to be imposed on the constraint functions to guarantee that for a given local minimizer of the original problem the nullvector is an optimal solution of the corresponding 'quasilinearized' problem. In this paper, constraint qualifications for inequality constrained quasi differentiable programming problems of type min {f(x)|g(x)≤0} are considered, where f and g are qusidifferentiable functions in the sense of Demyanov. Various constraint qualifications for this problem are presented and a new one is proposed. The relations among these conditions are investigated. Moreover, a Wolf dual problem for this problem is introduced, and the corresponding dual theorems are given.展开更多

To derive necessary optimality conditions of MOP, we consider assumptions called constraints qualifications. It is recognised that Guignard Constraint Qualification (GCQ) is the most efficient and general assumption for scalar objective optimisation problems;however, GCQ does not ensure Karush-Kuhn Tucker (KKT) necessary conditions for multiobjective optimisation problems. In this paper, we investigate the reasons behind that GCQ are not allowed to derive KKT conditions in multiobjective optimisation problems. Furthermore, we propose additional assumptions that allow one to use GCQ to derive necessary conditions for multiobjective optimisation problems. Finally, we also include sufficient conditions for multiobjective optimisation problems.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Detecting gastric precancerous lesions(GPLs)is critical for the early diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.Endoscopy combined with tissue examination is an important method for detecting GPLs.However,negative biopsy results often increase patients’risks,economic burdens,and lead to additional healthcare costs.Improving the detection rate of GPLs and reducing the rate of negative biopsies is currently a key focus in endoscopic quality control.AIM To explore the relationships between the endoscopist biopsy rate(EBR),qualifications of endoscopists and endoscopic assistants,and detection rate of GPLs.METHODS EBR,endoscopists,and endoscopic assistants were divided into four groups:Low,moderate,high,and very high levels.Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationships between EBR and the qualifications of endoscopists with respect to the detection rate of positive lesions.Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were used to evaluate the correlation between EBR,endoscopist or endoscopic assistant qualifications,and the detection rate of positive lesions.RESULTS Compared with those in the low EBR group,the odds ratio(OR)values for detecting positive lesions in the moderate,high,and very high EBR groups were 1.12[95%confidence interval(CI):1.06-1.19,P<0.001],1.22(95%CI:1.14-1.31,P<0.001),and 1.38(95%CI:1.29-1.47,P<0.001),respectively.EBR was positively correlated with the detection rate of gastric precancerous conditions(atrophic gastritis/intestinal metaplasia)(ρ=0.465,P=0.004).In contrast,the qualifications of the endoscopists were positively correlated with GPLs detection(ρ=0.448,P=0.005).Compared to endoscopists with low qualification levels,those with moderate,high,and very high qualification levels endoscopists demonstrated increased detection rates of GPLs by 13%(OR=1.13,95%CI:0.98-1.31),20%(OR=1.20,95%CI:1.03-1.39),and 32%(OR=1.32,95%CI:1.15-1.52),respectively.Further analysis revealed that the qualifications of endoscopists were positively correlated with the detection rates of GPLs in the cardia(ρ=0.350,P=0.034),angularis(ρ=0.396,P=0.015)and gastric body(ρ=0.453,P=0.005)but not in the antrum(ρ=0.292,P=0.079).Moreover,the experience of endoscopic assistants was positively correlated with the detection rate of precancerous lesions by endoscopists with low or moderate qualifications(ρ=0.427,P=0.015).CONCLUSION Endoscopists and endoscopic assistants with high/very high qualifications,but not EBR,can improve the detection rate of GPLs.These results provide reliable evidence for the development of gastroscopic quality control indicators.

文摘Recent experiments have found that a liquid crystal elastomer(LCE)rod supported in the middle can rotate continuously under horizontal illumination due to the combined impacts of gravity and light-fueled lateral bend-ing deformation.Similar to traditional gravity-driven systems,it is constrained by the direction of gravity and cannot be applied in microgravity environments.This study introduces a lateral constraint to a liquid crystal elastomer rod system,enabling self-rotation under lighting from any direction,including horizontal and vertical illumination.Through theoretical modeling,the results indicate that the system can steadily rotate under the combined impacts of lateral forces and vertical illumination.Factors like thermal energy flux,thermal conduc-tivity coefficient,the LCE rod length,contraction coefficient,and friction coefficient affect the angular velocity of the self-rotation.The numerical computations align closely with the experimental data.Our proposed steadily self-rotating system features a simple structure with constant self-rotation.It operates independently of gravity direction,making it an excellent choice for special environments,such as the microgravity conditions on the Moon.The lateral constraint strategy presented in this study offers a general approach to expanding the applica-tions of gravity-driven self-sustained motion,with promising potential,especially in microgravity settings,where its versatility under varying lighting conditions could yield valuable insights.

文摘Constraint satisfaction problems(CSPs)are a class of problems that are ubiquitous in science and engineering.They feature a collection of constraints specified over subsets of variables.A CSP can be solved either directly or by reducing it to other problems.This paper introduces the Julia ecosystem for solving and analyzing CSPs with a focus on the programming practices.We introduce some important CSPs and show how these problems are reduced to each other.We also show how to transform CSPs into tensor networks,how to optimize the tensor network contraction orders,and how to extract the solution space properties by contracting the tensor networks with generic element types.Examples are given,which include computing the entropy constant,analyzing the overlap gap property,and the reduction between CSPs.

文摘Background As visual simultaneous localization and mapping(SLAM)is primarily based on the assumption of a static scene,the presence of dynamic objects in the frame causes problems such as a deterioration of system robustness and inaccurate position estimation.In this study,we propose a YGC-SLAM for indoor dynamic environments based on the ORB-SLAM2 framework combined with semantic and geometric constraints to improve the positioning accuracy and robustness of the system.Methods First,the recognition accuracy of YOLOv5 was improved by introducing the convolution block attention model and the improved EIOU loss function,whereby the prediction frame converges quickly for better detection.The improved YOLOv5 was then added to the tracking thread for dynamic target detection to eliminate dynamic points.Subsequently,multi-view geometric constraints were used for re-judging to further eliminate dynamic points while enabling more useful feature points to be retained and preventing the semantic approach from over-eliminating feature points,causing a failure of map building.The K-means clustering algorithm was used to accelerate this process and quickly calculate and determine the motion state of each cluster of pixel points.Finally,a strategy for drawing keyframes with de-redundancy was implemented to construct a clear 3D dense static point-cloud map.Results Through testing on TUM dataset and a real environment,the experimental results show that our algorithm reduces the absolute trajectory error by 98.22%and the relative trajectory error by 97.98%compared with the original ORBSLAM2,which is more accurate and has better real-time performance than similar algorithms,such as DynaSLAM and DS-SLAM.Conclusions The YGC-SLAM proposed in this study can effectively eliminate the adverse effects of dynamic objects,and the system can better complete positioning and map building tasks in complex environments.

文摘Seasonal precipitation has always been a key focus of climate prediction.As a dynamic-statistical combined method,the existing observational constraint correction establishes a regression relationship between the numerical model outputs and historical observations,which can partly predict seasonal precipitation.However,solving a nonlinear problem through linear regression is significantly biased.This study implements a nonlinear optimization of an existing observational constrained correction model using a Light Gradient Boosting Machine(LightGBM)machine learning algorithm based on output from the Beijing National Climate Center Climate System Model(BCC-CSM)and station observations to improve the prediction of summer precipitation in China.The model was trained using a rolling approach,and LightGBM outperformed Linear Regression(LR),Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),and Categorical Boosting(CatBoost).Using parameter tuning to optimize the machine learning model and predict future summer precipitation using eight different predictors in BCC-CSM,the mean Anomaly Correlation Coefficient(ACC)score in the 2019–22 summer precipitation predictions was 0.17,and the mean Prediction Score(PS)reached 74.The PS score was improved by 7.87%and 6.63%compared with the BCC-CSM and the linear observational constraint approach,respectively.The observational constraint correction prediction strategy with LightGBM significantly and stably improved the prediction of summer precipitation in China compared to the previous linear observational constraint solution,providing a reference for flood control and drought relief during the flood season(summer)in China.

文摘This study aimed to identify and compensate for the geometric errors of the double swiveling axes in a five-axis computer numerical control(CNC)machining center.Hence,a three-dimensional coordinate calculation algorithm for a measured point with additional rotational rigid body motion constraints is proposed.The motion constraints of the rotational rigid body were analyzed,and a mathematical model of the measured point algorithm in the swiveling axes was established.The Levenberg-Marquard method was used to solve the nonlinear superstatically determined equations.The spatial coordinate error was used to separate the spatial deviation of the measured point.An identification model of the position-independent and position-dependent geometric errors was established.The three-dimensional coordinate-solving algorithm of the measured point in the swiveling axis and geometric error identification method based on the Monte Carlo method were analyzed numerically.Geometric error measurement and cutting experiments were performed on a VMC25100U five-axis machining center,which integrated two swiveling axes.Geometric errors of the A-and B-axes were identified and measured experimentally.The angular positioning errors before and after compensation were measured using a laser interferometer,which verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.A cutting experiment of a round table part was performed.The shape and position accuracy of the processed part before and after compensation were detected using a coordinate measuring machine.It verified that the geometric error of the swiveling axis was effectively compensated by the algorithm proposed herein.
文摘This study examines the moderating role of entrepreneurs’creative cognitive styles in the relationship between resource constraints and bricolage.Drawing on insights from cognitive psychology and entrepreneurial research,we explore how divergent and convergent thinking influence the extent to which entrepreneurs engage in bricolage under resource limitations.Bricolage refers to the creative recombination of available resources to address challenges and seize opportunities,a process often adopted by firms facing financial or knowledge constraints.Yet,individual cognitive differences may determine how effectively entrepreneurs can employ bricolage as a strategic response to scarcity.We propose that divergent thinking—the capacity to generate multiple creative solutions and identify novel resource combinations—strengthens the positive association between resource constraints and bricolage.In contrast,convergent thinking,which emphasizes logical analysis and the pursuit of a single optimal solution,weakens this association.To test these propositions,we collected survey data from 183 entrepreneurs in the United States and employed moderated regression analyses to examine the interactions among cognitive styles,resource constraints,and bricolage behaviors.Our findings reveal that divergent thinking significantly enhances the effect of both financial and knowledge constraints on bricolage,enabling entrepreneurs to creatively leverage limited resources.Conversely,convergent thinking appears to diminish the likelihood of engaging in bricolage when resources are scarce.These results highlight the importance of individual cognitive styles in shaping strategic responses to resource scarcity and contribute to a more nuanced understanding of entrepreneurial bricolage.The study offers practical implications for firms operating in resource-constrained environments by suggesting that enhancing divergent thinking abilities may facilitate more effective resource recombination.Future research should investigate additional cognitive factors and employ longitudinal designs to capture the dynamic nature of entrepreneurial decision-making.These insights open new avenues for further innovative entrepreneurial practices.
文摘As an important tool to achieve sustainable economic and environmental development,green finance can effectively alleviate the financing constraints of small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs),especially in promoting green transformation plays a key role.SMEs play an important role in economic growth,innovation,and job creation,but due to a lack of collateral,imperfect credit history,and opaque financial information,they face great obstacles in the financing process,especially in the early capital investment required for green transformation.Green finance,through innovative financial instruments such as green credit and green bonds,provides new financing channels for SMEs,helping them reduce financing costs,optimize financing structure,and promote their green transformation and sustainable development.This paper analyzes the current situation and root causes of SMEs’financing dilemma from the perspective of green finance,and probes into the influence of green finance policies on financing behavior.
