It can enhance the classification accuracy of decentralized SCN algorithms while effectively protecting user privacy. To this end, we propose a decentralized semi-supervised learning algorithm for SCN, called DMT-SCN, which introduces teacher and student models by combining the idea of consistency regularization to improve the response speed of model iterations. In order to reduce the possible negative impact of unsupervised data on the model, we purposely change the way of adding noise to the unlabeled data. Simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively utilize unlabeled data to improve the classification accuracy of SCN training and is robust under different ground simulation environments.展开更多

The method combines Drop Connect regularization with L1 regularization. Based on the L1 regularization constraint stochastic configuration network output weights, Drop Connect regularization is applied to the input weights to introduce sparsity. A probability decay strategy based on network residuals is designed to address situations where the Drop Connect fixed drop probability affects model convergence. Finally, the generated sparse stochastic configuration network is used to establish the model, and is validated through experiments with standard datasets and actual data from an MSWI plant in Beijing. The experimental results prove that this modeling method exhibits high-precision prediction and generalization ability while effectively simplifying the model structure, which enables accurate prediction of NOx concentration.展开更多

To provide highly efficient and credible analysis, four BP neural networks are built as surrogate models to predict the airfoil aerodynamic coefficients and geometry parameter. These networks are combined with the probability density function obeying normal distribution and the genetic algorithm, thus forming an optimization design method. Using the method, for GA（W）-2 airfoil, a stochastic optimization is implemented in a two-dimensional flight area about Mach number and angle of attack. Compared with original airfoil and single point optimization design airfoil, results show that the two-dimensional stochastic method can improve the performance in a specific flight area, and increase the airfoil adaptability to the stochastic changes of multiple flight parameters.展开更多

To develop an Open Flow implementation, it is required to understand the performance of the network. A few benchmark tools(e.g., Cbench and OFlops) can be used to measure the network performance, while these tools take considerable time to simulate traffic behaviors and generate the required results,therefore extending the development time. In this paper, we present an analytical model, which is based on stochastic network calculus theory, for evaluating the performance of switch to controller.The previous studies show that stochastic network calculus can provide realistic emulation of real network traffic behaviors. Our model is evaluated by using both simulation tool and realistic testbed.The results show the stochastic network calculus based analysis model can realistically measure the network performance of the end-to-end properties between controller and switch.展开更多

We show that an intermediate intensity of additive noise is able to optimally assist the pacemaker in imposing its rhythm on the whole ensemble. Furthermore, we reveal that appropriately tuned delays can induce stochastic multiresonances, appearing at every integer multiple of the pacemaker＇s oscillation period. We conclude that fine-tuned delay lengths and locally acting pacemakers are vital for ensuring optimal conditions for stochastic resonance on complex neuronal networks.展开更多

A sufficient synchronization condition is given to ensure that the proposed network model is mean-square stable. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation fully verify the main results.展开更多

文摘Deep neural networks(DNN)are widely used in image recognition,image classification,and other fields.However,as the model size increases,the DNN hardware accelerators face the challenge of higher area overhead and energy consumption.In recent years,stochastic computing(SC)has been considered a way to realize deep neural networks and reduce hardware consumption.A probabilistic compensation algorithm is proposed to solve the accuracy problem of stochastic calculation,and a fully parallel neural network accelerator based on a deterministic method is designed.The software simulation results show that the accuracy of the probability compensation algorithm on the CIFAR-10 data set is 95.32%,which is 14.98%higher than that of the traditional SC algorithm.The accuracy of the deterministic algorithm on the CIFAR-10 dataset is 95.06%,which is 14.72%higher than that of the traditional SC algorithm.The results of Very Large Scale Integration Circuit(VLSI)hardware tests show that the normalized energy efficiency of the fully parallel neural network accelerator based on the deterministic method is improved by 31%compared with the circuit based on binary computing.
文摘The aim of this paper is to broaden the application of Stochastic Configuration Network (SCN) in the semi-supervised domain by utilizing common unlabeled data in daily life. It can enhance the classification accuracy of decentralized SCN algorithms while effectively protecting user privacy. To this end, we propose a decentralized semi-supervised learning algorithm for SCN, called DMT-SCN, which introduces teacher and student models by combining the idea of consistency regularization to improve the response speed of model iterations. In order to reduce the possible negative impact of unsupervised data on the model, we purposely change the way of adding noise to the unlabeled data. Simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively utilize unlabeled data to improve the classification accuracy of SCN training and is robust under different ground simulation environments.

文摘For accurate prediction of nitrogen oxides(NOx) concentration during the municipal solid waste incineration(MSWI) process, in this paper, a prediction modeling method based on a sparse regularization stochastic configuration network is proposed. The method combines Drop Connect regularization with L1 regularization. Based on the L1 regularization constraint stochastic configuration network output weights, Drop Connect regularization is applied to the input weights to introduce sparsity. A probability decay strategy based on network residuals is designed to address situations where the Drop Connect fixed drop probability affects model convergence. Finally, the generated sparse stochastic configuration network is used to establish the model, and is validated through experiments with standard datasets and actual data from an MSWI plant in Beijing. The experimental results prove that this modeling method exhibits high-precision prediction and generalization ability while effectively simplifying the model structure, which enables accurate prediction of NOx concentration.
文摘To avoid the aerodynamic performance loss of airfoil at non-design state which often appears in single point design optimization, and to improve the adaptability to the uncertain factors in actual flight environment, a two-dimensional stochastic airfoil optimization design method based on neural networks is presented. To provide highly efficient and credible analysis, four BP neural networks are built as surrogate models to predict the airfoil aerodynamic coefficients and geometry parameter. These networks are combined with the probability density function obeying normal distribution and the genetic algorithm, thus forming an optimization design method. Using the method, for GA（W）-2 airfoil, a stochastic optimization is implemented in a two-dimensional flight area about Mach number and angle of attack. Compared with original airfoil and single point optimization design airfoil, results show that the two-dimensional stochastic method can improve the performance in a specific flight area, and increase the airfoil adaptability to the stochastic changes of multiple flight parameters.

文摘The Open Flow implementations(SDNs) have been deployed increasingly on varieties of networks in research institutions as well as commercial institutions. To develop an Open Flow implementation, it is required to understand the performance of the network. A few benchmark tools(e.g., Cbench and OFlops) can be used to measure the network performance, while these tools take considerable time to simulate traffic behaviors and generate the required results,therefore extending the development time. In this paper, we present an analytical model, which is based on stochastic network calculus theory, for evaluating the performance of switch to controller.The previous studies show that stochastic network calculus can provide realistic emulation of real network traffic behaviors. Our model is evaluated by using both simulation tool and realistic testbed.The results show the stochastic network calculus based analysis model can realistically measure the network performance of the end-to-end properties between controller and switch.

文摘The stochastic resonance in paced time-delayed scale-free FitzHugh--Nagumo （FHN） neuronal networks is investigated. We show that an intermediate intensity of additive noise is able to optimally assist the pacemaker in imposing its rhythm on the whole ensemble. Furthermore, we reveal that appropriately tuned delays can induce stochastic multiresonances, appearing at every integer multiple of the pacemaker＇s oscillation period. We conclude that fine-tuned delay lengths and locally acting pacemakers are vital for ensuring optimal conditions for stochastic resonance on complex neuronal networks.

文摘The problem of passivity analysis is investigated for uncertain stochastic neural networks with discrete interval and distributed time-varying delays.The parameter uncertainties are assumed to be norm bounded and the delay is assumed to be time-varying and belongs to a given interval,which means that the lower and upper bounds of interval time-varying delays are available.By constructing proper Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and employing a combination of the free-weighting matrix method and stochastic analysis technique,new delay-dependent passivity conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities（LMIs）.Finally,numerical examples are given to show the less conservatism of the proposed conditions.

文摘Simultaneous use of heterogeneous radio access technologies to increase the performance of real-time,reliability and capacity is an inherent feature of satellite-5G integrated network(Sat5G).However,there is still a lack of theoretical characterization of whether the network can satisfy the end-to-end transmission performance for latency-sensitive service.To this end,we build a tandem model considering the connection relationship between the various components in Sat5G network architecture,and give an end-to-end latency calculation function based on this model.By introducing stochastic network calculus,we derive the relationship between the end-to-end latency bound and the violation probability considering the traffic characteristics of multimedia.Numerical results demonstrate the impact of different burst states and different service rates on this relationship,which means the higher the burst of arrival traffic and the higher the average rate of arrival traffic,the greater the probability of end-to-end latency violation.The results will provide valuable guidelines for the traffic control and cache management in Sat5G network.

文摘This paper studies the stochastic synchronization problem for time-varying complex dynamical networks. This model is totally different from some existing network models. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, inequality techniques, and the properties of the Weiner process, some controllers and adaptive laws are designed to ensure achieving stochastic synchronization of a complex dynamical network model. A sufficient synchronization condition is given to ensure that the proposed network model is mean-square stable. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation fully verify the main results.
