Displacement back-analysis is the most widely used method;however, the reliability of thecurrent approaches remains unsatisfactory. Therefore, in this paper, a multistage rock mass parameterback-analysis method, that considers the construction process and displacement losses is proposed andimplemented through the coupling of numerical simulation, auto-machine learning (AutoML), andmulti-objective optimization algorithms (MOOAs). First, a parametric modeling platform for mechanizedtwin tunnels is developed, generating a dataset through extensive numerical simulations. Next, theAutoML method is utilized to establish a surrogate model linking rock parameters and displacements.The tunnel construction process is divided into multiple stages, transforming the rock mass parameterback-analysis into a multi-objective optimization problem, for which multi-objective optimization algorithmsare introduced to obtain the rock mass parameters. The newly proposed rock mass parameterback-analysis method is validated in a mechanized twin tunnel project, and its accuracy and effectivenessare demonstrated. Compared with traditional single-stage back-analysis methods, the proposedmodel decreases the average absolute percentage error from 12.73% to 4.34%, significantly improving theaccuracy of the back-analysis. Moreover, although the accuracy of back analysis significantly increaseswith the number of construction stages considered, the back analysis time is acceptable. This studyprovides a new method for displacement back analysis that is efficient and accurate, thereby paving theway for precise parameter determination in numerical simulations.展开更多

Moreover, the inertia weight self-adjusting mechanism and Pareto-optimal archive are introduced into the particle swarm optimization and an improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization （IMOPSO） is proposed. The IMOPSO is employed to solve the optimal model and obtain the Pareto-optimal front. The multi-objective optimal operation of Wanjiazhai Reservoir during the spring breakup was investigated with three typical flood hydrographs. The results show that the former method is able to obtain the Pareto-optimal front with a uniform distribution property. Different regions （A, B, C） of the Pareto-optimal front correspond to the optimized schemes in terms of the objectives of sediment deposition, sediment deposition and power generation, and power generation, respectively. The level hydrographs and outflow hydrographs show the operation of the reservoir in details. Compared with the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-Ⅱ （NSGA-Ⅱ）, IMOPSO has close global optimization capability and is suitable for multi-objective optimization problems.展开更多

The optimal operation alternative shows that the electricity cost is saved approximately 11%, the income of the water corporation is increased approximately 5%, and the pressure in the water distribution network is distributed evenly to ensure the network safe operation. Therefore, the proposed method for optimal operation under local pipe failure is feasible and cost-effective.展开更多

文摘Community detection is one of the most fundamental applications in understanding the structure of complicated networks.Furthermore,it is an important approach to identifying closely linked clusters of nodes that may represent underlying patterns and relationships.Networking structures are highly sensitive in social networks,requiring advanced techniques to accurately identify the structure of these communities.Most conventional algorithms for detecting communities perform inadequately with complicated networks.In addition,they miss out on accurately identifying clusters.Since single-objective optimization cannot always generate accurate and comprehensive results,as multi-objective optimization can.Therefore,we utilized two objective functions that enable strong connections between communities and weak connections between them.In this study,we utilized the intra function,which has proven effective in state-of-the-art research studies.We proposed a new inter-function that has demonstrated its effectiveness by making the objective of detecting external connections between communities is to make them more distinct and sparse.Furthermore,we proposed a Multi-Objective community strength enhancement algorithm(MOCSE).The proposed algorithm is based on the framework of the Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm with Decomposition(MOEA/D),integrated with a new heuristic mutation strategy,community strength enhancement(CSE).The results demonstrate that the model is effective in accurately identifying community structures while also being computationally efficient.The performance measures used to evaluate the MOEA/D algorithm in our work are normalized mutual information(NMI)and modularity(Q).It was tested using five state-of-the-art algorithms on social networks,comprising real datasets(Zachary,Dolphin,Football,Krebs,SFI,Jazz,and Netscience),as well as twenty synthetic datasets.These results provide the robustness and practical value of the proposed algorithm in multi-objective community identification.

文摘Multi-instance image generation remains a challenging task in the field of computer vision.While existing diffusionmodels demonstrate impressive fidelity in image generation,they often struggle with precisely controlling each object’s shape,pose,and size.Methods like layout-to-image and mask-to-image provide spatial guidance but frequently suffer from object shape distortion,overlaps,and poor consistency,particularly in complex scenes with multiple objects.To address these issues,we introduce PolyDiffusion,a contour-based diffusion framework that encodes each object’s contour as a boundary-coordinate sequence,decoupling object shapes and positions.This approach allows for better control over object geometry and spatial positioning,which is critical for achieving high-quality multiinstance generation.We formulate the training process as a multi-objective optimization problem,balancing three key objectives:a denoising diffusion loss to maintain overall image fidelity,a cross-attention contour alignment loss to ensure precise shape adherence,and a reward-guided denoising objective that minimizes the Fréchet distance to real images.In addition,the Object Space-Aware Attention module fuses contour tokens with visual features,while a prior-guided fusion mechanism utilizes inter-object spatial relationships and class semantics to enhance consistency across multiple objects.Experimental results on benchmark datasets such as COCO-Stuff and VOC-2012 demonstrate that PolyDiffusion significantly outperforms existing layout-to-image and mask-to-image methods,achieving notable improvements in both image quality and instance-level segmentation accuracy.The implementation of Poly Diffusion is available at https://github.com/YYYYYJS/PolyDiffusion(accessed on 06 August 2025).

文摘With growing concerns over environmental issues,ethylene manufacturing is shifting from a sole focus on economic benefits to an additional consideration of environmental impacts.The operation of the thermal cracking furnace in ethylene manufacturing determines not only the profitability of an ethylene plant but also the carbon emissions it releases.While multi-objective optimization of the thermal cracking furnace to balance profit with environmental impact is an effective solution to achieve green ethylene man-ufacturing,it carries a high computational demand due to the complex dynamic processes involved.In this work,artificial intelligence(AI)is applied to develop a novel hybrid model based on physically consistent machine learning(PCML).This hybrid model not only reduces the computational demand but also retains the interpretability and scalability of the model.With this hybrid model,the computational demand of the multi-objective dynamic optimization is reduced to 77 s.The optimization results show that dynamically adjusting the operating variables with coke formation can effectively improve profit and reduce CO_(2)emissions.In addition,the results from this study indicate that sacrificing 28.97%of the annual profit can significantly reduce the annual CO_(2)emissions by 42.89%.The key findings of this study highlight the great potential for green ethylene manufacturing based on AI through modeling and optimization approaches.This study will be important for industrial practitioners and policy-makers.

文摘This paper presents an improved virtual coupling train set(VCTS)operation control framework to deal with the lack of opti-mization of speed curves in the traditional techniques.The framework takes into account the temporary speed limit on the railway line and the communication delay between trains,and it uses a VCTS consisting of three trains as an experimental object.It creates the virtual coupling train tracking and control process by improving the driving strategy of the leader train and using the leader-follower model.The follower train uses the improved speed curve of the leader train as its speed refer-ence curve through knowledge migration,and this completes the multi-objective optimization of the driving strategy for the VCTS.The experimental results confirm that the deep reinforcement learning algorithm effectively achieves the optimization goal of the train driving strategy.They also reveal that the intrinsic curiosity module prioritized experience replay dueling double deep Q-network(ICM-PER-D3QN)algorithm outperforms the deep Q-network(DQN)algorithm in optimizing the driving strategy of the leader train.The ICM-PER-D3QN algorithm enhances the leader train driving strategy by an average of 57%when compared to the DQN algorithm.Furthermore,the particle swarm optimization(PSO)-based model predictive control(MPC)algorithm has also demonstrated tracking accuracy and further improved safety during VCTS operation,with an average increase of 37.7%in tracking accuracy compared to the traditional MPC algorithm.

文摘The solenoid switching valve(SSV)is the key control component of heavy equipment such as continuous casting machines.However,the incompatibility of structural parameters increases the opening and closing time of the SSV.Therefore,this study proposes an optimized design method for an SSV to improve its dynamic performance.First,a multi-physics field-coupling model of the SSV is built,and the effects of different structural parameters on the electromagnetic characteristics are analyzed.After identifying the key influencing parameters,second-order response surface models are established to efficiently predict the opening and closing time.Subsequently,based on the nondominated sorting genetic algorithmⅡ(NSGA-Ⅱ),multi-objective optimization is applied to obtain the Pareto optimal solution of the structural parameters under the double-voltage driving strategy.The structure of the solenoid and valve as well as the dynamic characteristics of the valve are improved.Compared with those before optimization,the optimization results show that the opening and closing time of the optimized SSV are reduced by 24.38%and 51.8%,respectively,and the volume is reduced by 19.7%.The research results and the influence of the solenoid structural parameters on the electromagnetic force provide significant guidance for the design of this type of valve.

文摘Accurate determination of rock mass parameters is essential for ensuring the accuracy of numericalsimulations. Displacement back-analysis is the most widely used method;however, the reliability of thecurrent approaches remains unsatisfactory. Therefore, in this paper, a multistage rock mass parameterback-analysis method, that considers the construction process and displacement losses is proposed andimplemented through the coupling of numerical simulation, auto-machine learning (AutoML), andmulti-objective optimization algorithms (MOOAs). First, a parametric modeling platform for mechanizedtwin tunnels is developed, generating a dataset through extensive numerical simulations. Next, theAutoML method is utilized to establish a surrogate model linking rock parameters and displacements.The tunnel construction process is divided into multiple stages, transforming the rock mass parameterback-analysis into a multi-objective optimization problem, for which multi-objective optimization algorithmsare introduced to obtain the rock mass parameters. The newly proposed rock mass parameterback-analysis method is validated in a mechanized twin tunnel project, and its accuracy and effectivenessare demonstrated. Compared with traditional single-stage back-analysis methods, the proposedmodel decreases the average absolute percentage error from 12.73% to 4.34%, significantly improving theaccuracy of the back-analysis. Moreover, although the accuracy of back analysis significantly increaseswith the number of construction stages considered, the back analysis time is acceptable. This studyprovides a new method for displacement back analysis that is efficient and accurate, thereby paving theway for precise parameter determination in numerical simulations.

文摘A multi-objective optimal operation model of water-sedimentation-power in reservoir is established with power-generation, sedimentation and water storage taken into account. Moreover, the inertia weight self-adjusting mechanism and Pareto-optimal archive are introduced into the particle swarm optimization and an improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization （IMOPSO） is proposed. The IMOPSO is employed to solve the optimal model and obtain the Pareto-optimal front. The multi-objective optimal operation of Wanjiazhai Reservoir during the spring breakup was investigated with three typical flood hydrographs. The results show that the former method is able to obtain the Pareto-optimal front with a uniform distribution property. Different regions （A, B, C） of the Pareto-optimal front correspond to the optimized schemes in terms of the objectives of sediment deposition, sediment deposition and power generation, and power generation, respectively. The level hydrographs and outflow hydrographs show the operation of the reservoir in details. Compared with the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-Ⅱ （NSGA-Ⅱ）, IMOPSO has close global optimization capability and is suitable for multi-objective optimization problems.

文摘The optimal operation of water distribution networks under local pipe failures, such as water main breaks, was proposed. Based on a hydraulic analysis and a simulation of water distribution networks, a macroscopic model for a network under a local pipe failure was established by the statistical regression. After the operation objectives under a local pipe failure were determined, the optimal operation model was developed and solved by the genetic algorithm. The program was developed and examined by a city distribution network. The optimal operation alternative shows that the electricity cost is saved approximately 11%, the income of the water corporation is increased approximately 5%, and the pressure in the water distribution network is distributed evenly to ensure the network safe operation. Therefore, the proposed method for optimal operation under local pipe failure is feasible and cost-effective.
