First, an improved model selection criterion, the completed likelihood minimum message length criterion, is derived. It can measure both the goodness-of-fit of the candidate GMM to the data and the goodness-of-partition of the data. Secondly, by utilizing the proposed criterion as the clustering objective function, an improved expectation- maximization （EM） algorithm is developed, which can avoid poor local optimal solutions compared to the standard EM algorithm for estimating the model parameters. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can rectify the over-fitting tendency of representative GMM-based clustering approaches and can robustly provide more accurate clustering results.展开更多

Optimi...Early water breakthrough and a rapid increase in water cut are always observed in high- permeability completion intervals when perforations are uniformly distributed in the wellbore in heterogeneous reservoirs. Optimization of perforating parameters in partitioned sections in horizontal intervals helps homogenize the inflow from the reservoir and thus is critically important for enhanced oil recovery. This paper derives a coupled reservoir-wellbore flow model based on inflow controlling theory. Genetic algorithms are applied to solving the model as they excel in obtaining the global optimum of discrete functions. The optimized perforating strategy applies a low perforation density in high- permeability intervals and a high perforation density in low-permeability intervals. As a result, the inflow profile is homogenized and idealized.展开更多

Firstly, according to the concurrent characteristics of Petri net model, we analyze the parallelism of Petri net system; then, by giving the solving process of place invariants and the function partitioning of Petri net, we propose the function partitioning conditions and determination theorem of Petri net parallelization, and conduct its theoretical proof and practical verification. On this basis, we conduct the theoretical study and analysis on the situation that Petri net system has several kinds of parallel function partitioning, propose the completeness theorem of parallelism function partitioning in Petri net system, and verify it. Finally, we give the algorithms, application examples and simulation experiment results of parallel function partitioning of Petri net systems based on place invariant. The theoretical proof and experimental results show that the function partitioning conditions and completeness theory of Petri net parallelization based on place invariant are correct, and the parallel algorithms under such theoretical basis are also correct and effective.展开更多

In general, multi-constrained path selection with or without optimization is a NP-complete problem that can not be exactly solved in polynomial time. Hence, accurate constraints-based routing algorithms with a fast running time are scarce, perhaps even non-existent. The expected impact of such a constrained-based routing algorithm has resulted in the proposal of numerous heuristics and a few exact QoS algorithms. This paper aims to give a thorough, concise and fair evaluation of the most important multiple constraint-based QoS multicast routing algorithms known today, and it provides a descriptive overview and simulation results of these multi-constrained routing algorithms.展开更多

The principle of environment modeling is to divide the environment into individual square sub-areas. Each sub-area is orientated by the central point of the sub-areas called a node. The rectangular map based on the square map can enlarge the square area side size to increase the coverage efficiency in the case of there being an adjacent obstacle. Based on this algorithm, a new coverage algorithm, which includes global path planning and local path planning, is introduced. In the global path planning, uncovered subspaces are found by using a special rule. A one-dimensional array P, which is used to obtain the searching priority of node in every direction, is defined as the search rule. The array P includes the condition of coverage towards the adjacent cells, the condition of connectivity and the priorities defined by the user in all eight directions. In the local path planning, every sub-area is covered by using template models according to the shape of the environment. The simulation experiments show that the coverage algorithm is simple, efficient and adapted for complex two- dimensional environments.展开更多

A multi-unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) collaborative CCPP algorithm is proposed for the urban rescue search or military search in outdoor environment.Due to flexible control of small UAVs, it can be considered that all UAVs fly at the same altitude, that is, they perform search tasks on a two-dimensional plane. Based on the agents’ motion characteristics and environmental information, a mathematical model of CCPP problem is established. The minimum time for UAVs to complete the CCPP is the objective function, and complete coverage constraint, no-fly constraint, collision avoidance constraint, and communication constraint are considered. Four motion strategies and two communication strategies are designed. Then a distributed CCPP algorithm is designed based on hybrid strategies. Simulation results compared with patternbased genetic algorithm(PBGA) and random search method show that the proposed method has stronger real-time performance and better scalability and can complete the complete CCPP task more efficiently and stably.展开更多
