It was found that environmental variables-including temperature, light, and moisture-elicit directional shifts in static traits ( e.g. , chemical composition, morphological architecture, and leaf tissue structure) toward enhanced environmental adaptation, characterized by graduality, juvenility, similarity, and correlativity. Upon alterations in ambient conditions, flue-cured tobacco modulates its static traits through integrated physical, chemical, and biological-genetic mechanisms, aiming to optimize resource utilization, mitigate environmental constraints, and preserve internal homeostasis alongside metabolic balance. The investigation further reveals that the adaptive scope of flue-cured tobacco to field environments is malleable and can be extended and elevated via adaptive conditioning commencing at the juvenile stage. In addition, the adaptive alignment between static traits and environmental parameters exerts a substantial impact on the plant s growth dynamics, yield performance, and quality attributes. Beyond its relevance to flue-cured tobacco, the proposed theory offers a meaningful framework for elucidating the pervasive adaptive strategies employed by plants and broader biological systems in response to environmental contingencies.展开更多

Existing distributed NE seeking approaches often overlook practical input constraints or rely on centralized information. To address these issues, a novel edge-based double-layer adaptive control framework is proposed. Specifically, adaptive scaling parameters are embedded into the edge weights of the communication graph, enabling a fully distributed scheme that avoids dependence on centralized or global knowledge. Every participant modifies its strategy by exclusively utilizing local information and communicating with its neighbors to iteratively approach the NE. By incorporating damping terms into the design of the adaptive parameters, the proposed approach effectively suppresses unbounded parameter growth and consequently guarantees the boundedness of the adaptive gains. In addition, to account for actuator saturation, the proposed distributed NE seeking approach incorporates a saturation function, which ensures that control inputs do not exceed allowable ranges. A rigorous Lyapunov-based analysis guarantees the convergence and boundedness of all system variables. Finally, the presentation of simulation results aims to validate the efficacy and theoretical soundness of the proposed approach.展开更多

文摘This article presents an adaptive intelligent control strategy applied to a lumped-parameter evaporator model,i.e.,a simplified dynamic representation treating the evaporator as a single thermal node with uniform temperature distribution,suitable for control design due to its balance between physical fidelity and computational simplicity.The controller uses a wavelet-based neural proportional,integral,derivative(PID)controller with IIR filtering(infinite impulse response).The dynamic model captures the essential heat and mass transfer phenomena through a nonlinear energy balance,where the cooling capacity“Qevap”is expressed as a non-linear function of the compressor frequency and the temperature difference,specifically,Q_(evap)=k_(1)u(T_(in)−T_(e))with u as compressor frequency,Te evaporator temperature,and Tin inlet fluid temperature.The operating conditions of the system,in general terms,focus on the following variables,the overall thermal capacity is 1000 J/K,typical for small-capacity heat exchangers,The mass flow is 0.05 kg/s,typical for secondary liquid cooling circuits,the overall loss coefficient of 50 W/K that corresponds to small evaporators with partial insulation,the temperatures(inlet)of 10℃and the temperature of environment of 25℃,thermal load of 200 W that corresponds to a small-scaled air conditioning applications.To handle system nonlinearities and improve control performance,aMorlet wavelet-based neural network(Wavenet)is used to dynamically adjust the PID gains online.An IIR filter is incorporated to smooth the adaptive gains,improving stability and reducing oscillations.In contrast to prior wavelet-or neural-adaptive PID controllers in HVAC applications,which typically adjust gains without explicit filtering or not tailored to evaporator dynamics,this work introduces the first PID–Wavenet scheme augmented with an IIR-based stabilization layer,specifically designed to address the combined challenges of nonlinear evaporator behavior,gain oscillation,and real-time implementability.The proposed controller(PID-Wavenet+IIR)is implemented and validated inMATLAB/Simulink,demonstrating superior performance compared to a conventional PID tuned using Simulink’s auto-tuning function.Key results include a reduction in settling time from 13.3 to 8.2 s,a reduction in overshoot from 3.5%to 0.8%,a reduction in steady-state error from 0.12℃ to 0.02℃and a 13%reduction in energy overall consumption.The controller also exhibits greater robustness and adaptability under varying thermal loads.This explicit integration of wavelet-driven adaptation with IIR-filtered gain shaping constitutes the main methodological contribution and novelty of the work.These findings validate the effectiveness of the wavelet-based adaptive approach for advanced thermal management in refrigeration and HVAC systems,with potential applications in controlling variable-speed compressors,liquid chillers,and compact cooling units.

文摘Federated Learning(FL)protects data privacy through a distributed training mechanism,yet its decentralized nature also introduces new security vulnerabilities.Backdoor attacks inject malicious triggers into the global model through compromised updates,posing significant threats to model integrity and becoming a key focus in FL security.Existing backdoor attack methods typically embed triggers directly into original images and consider only data heterogeneity,resulting in limited stealth and adaptability.To address the heterogeneity of malicious client devices,this paper proposes a novel backdoor attack method named Capability-Adaptive Shadow Backdoor Attack(CASBA).By incorporating measurements of clients’computational and communication capabilities,CASBA employs a dynamic hierarchical attack strategy that adaptively aligns attack intensity with available resources.Furthermore,an improved deep convolutional generative adversarial network(DCGAN)is integrated into the attack pipeline to embed triggers without modifying original data,significantly enhancing stealthiness.Comparative experiments with Shadow Backdoor Attack(SBA)across multiple scenarios demonstrate that CASBA dynamically adjusts resource consumption based on device capabilities,reducing average memory usage per iteration by 5.8%.CASBA improves resource efficiency while keeping the drop in attack success rate within 3%.Additionally,the effectiveness of CASBA against three robust FL algorithms is also validated.

文摘To enhance speech emotion recognition capability,this study constructs a speech emotion recognition model integrating the adaptive acoustic mixup(AAM)and improved coordinate and shuffle attention(ICASA)methods.The AAM method optimizes data augmentation by combining a sample selection strategy and dynamic interpolation coefficients,thus enabling information fusion of speech data with different emotions at the acoustic level.The ICASA method enhances feature extraction capability through dynamic fusion of the improved coordinate attention(ICA)and shuffle attention(SA)techniques.The ICA technique reduces computational overhead by employing depth-separable convolution and an h-swish activation function and captures long-range dependencies of multi-scale time-frequency features using the attention weights.The SA technique promotes feature interaction through channel shuffling,which helps the model learn richer and more discriminative emotional features.Experimental results demonstrate that,compared to the baseline model,the proposed model improves the weighted accuracy by 5.42%and 4.54%,and the unweighted accuracy by 3.37%and 3.85%on the IEMOCAP and RAVDESS datasets,respectively.These improvements were confirmed to be statistically significant by independent samples t-tests,further supporting the practical reliability and applicability of the proposed model in real-world emotion-aware speech systems.

文摘Recently,for developing neuromorphic visual systems,adaptive optoelectronic devices become one of the main research directions and attract extensive focus to achieve optoelectronic transistors with high performances and flexible func-tionalities.In this review,based on a description of the biological adaptive functions that are favorable for dynamically perceiv-ing,filtering,and processing information in the varying environment,we summarize the representative strategies for achiev-ing these adaptabilities in optoelectronic transistors,including the adaptation for detecting information,adaptive synaptic weight change,and history-dependent plasticity.Moreover,the key points of the corresponding strategies are comprehen-sively discussed.And the applications of these adaptive optoelectronic transistors,including the adaptive color detection,sig-nal filtering,extending the response range of light intensity,and improve learning efficiency,are also illustrated separately.Lastly,the challenges faced in developing adaptive optoelectronic transistor for artificial vision system are discussed.The descrip-tion of biological adaptive functions and the corresponding inspired neuromorphic devices are expected to provide insights for the design and application of next-generation artificial visual systems.

文摘To avoid the laborious annotation process for dense prediction tasks like semantic segmentation,unsupervised domain adaptation(UDA)methods have been proposed to leverage the abundant annotations from a source domain,such as virtual world(e.g.,3D games),and adapt models to the target domain(the real world)by narrowing the domain discrepancies.However,because of the large domain gap,directly aligning two distinct domains without considering the intermediates leads to inefficient alignment and inferior adaptation.To address this issue,we propose a novel learnable evolutionary Category Intermediates(CIs)guided UDA model named Leci,which enables the information transfer between the two domains via two processes,i.e.,Distilling and Blending.Starting from a random initialization,the CIs learn shared category-wise semantics automatically from two domains in the Distilling process.Then,the learned semantics in the CIs are sent back to blend the domain features through a residual attentive fusion(RAF)module,such that the categorywise features of both domains shift towards each other.As the CIs progressively and consistently learn from the varying feature distributions during training,they are evolutionary to guide the model to achieve category-wise feature alignment.Experiments on both GTA5 and SYNTHIA datasets demonstrate Leci's superiority over prior representative methods.

文摘Existing traditional ocean vertical-mixing schemes are empirically developed without a thorough understanding of the physical processes involved,resulting in a discrepancy between the parameterization and forecast results.The uncertainty in ocean-mixing parameterization is primarily responsible for the bias in ocean models.Benefiting from deep-learning technology,we design the Adaptive Fully Connected Module with an Inception module as the baseline to minimize bias.It adaptively extracts the best features through fully connected layers with different widths,and better learns the nonlinear relationship between input variables and parameterization fields.Moreover,to obtain more accurate results,we impose KPP(K-Profile Parameterization)and PP(Pacanowski–Philander)schemes as physical constraints to make the network parameterization process follow the basic physical laws more closely.Since model data are calculated with human experience,lacking some unknown physical processes,which may differ from the actual data,we use a decade-long time record of hydrological and turbulence observations in the tropical Pacific Ocean as training data.Combining physical constraints and a nonlinear activation function,our method catches its nonlinear change and better adapts to the oceanmixing parameterization process.The use of physical constraints can improve the final results.

文摘With the widespread adoption of electric vehicles and energy storage systems,predicting the remaining useful life(RUL)of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)is critical for enhancing system reliability and enabling predictive maintenance.Traditional RUL prediction methods often exhibit reduced accuracy during the nonlinear aging stages of batteries and struggle to accommodate complex degradation processes.This paper introduces a novel adaptive long short-term memory(LSTM)approach that dynamically adjusts observation and prediction horizons to optimize predictive performance across various aging stages.The proposed method employs principal component analysis(PCA)for dimensionality reduction on publicly available NASA and Mendeley battery datasets to extract health indicators(HIs)and applies K-means clustering to segment the battery lifecycle into three aging stages(run-in,linear aging,and nonlinear aging),providing aging-stage-based input features for the model.Experimental results show that,in the NASA dataset,the adaptive LSTM reduces the MAE and RMSE by 0.042 and 0.043,respectively,compared to the CNN,demonstrating its effectiveness in mitigating error accumulation during the nonlinear aging stage.However,in the Mendeley dataset,the average prediction accuracy of the adaptive LSTM is slightly lower than that of the CNN and Transformer.These findings indicate that defining aging-stage-based adaptive observation and prediction horizons for LSTM can effectively enhance its performance in predicting battery RUL across the entire lifecycle.
