Under such circumstance and to provide a practical method for production scheduling in batch production mode, a study was made on the batch splitting scheduling problem on alternative machines, based on the objective to minimize the makespan. A scheduling approach was presented to address the variable-sized batch splitting scheduling problem in job shops trying to optimize both the number of sub-bathes and the sub-batch sizes, based on differential evolution（DE）, making full use of the finding that the sum of values of genes in one chromosome remains the same before and after mutation in DE. Considering before-arrival set-up time and processing time separately, a variable-sized batch splitting scheduling model was established and a new hybrid algorithm was brought forward to solve both the batch splitting problem and the batch scheduling problem. A new parallel chromosome representation was adopted, and the batch scheduling chromosome and the batch splitting chromosome were treated separately during the global search procedure, based on self-adaptive DE and genetic crossover operator, respectively. A new local search method was further designed to gain a better performance. A solution consists of the optimum number of sub-bathes for each operation per job, the optimum batch size for each sub-batch and the optimum sequence of sub-batches. Computational experiments of four test instances and a realistic problem in a speaker workshop were performed to testify the effectiveness of the proposed scheduling method. The study takes advantage of DE＇s distinctive feature, and employs the algorithm as a solution approach, and thereby deepens and enriches the content of batch splitting scheduling.展开更多

In this paper a set of approximation algorithms is presented for cases in which the ability to preview at most k（〉=2） arriving bins is given. With the essential assumption that all bin sizes are not less than the largest item size, analytical results show the asymptotic worst case ratios of all k-bounded space and offiine algorithms are 2. Based on experiments by applying algorithms to instances in which item sizes and bin sizes are drawn independently from the continuous uniform distribution respectively in the interval [0,u] and [u,l ], averagecase experimental results show that, with fixed k, algorithms with the Best Fit packing（closing） rule are statistically better than those with the First Fit packing（closing） rule.展开更多

The U-net approach has higher precision than the traditional linear regression approach. However, the existing 2D U-net approach with 2D data windows can not deal with elaborate discrepancies between the actual and simulated multiples along the gather direction. It may lead to erroneous preservation of primaries or generate obvious vestigial multiples, especially in complex media. To further enhance the multiple suppression accuracy, we present an adaptive subtraction approach utilizing 3D U-net architecture, which can adaptively separate primaries and multiples utilizing 3D windows. The utilization of 3D windows allows for enhanced depiction of spatial continuity and anisotropy of seismic events along the gather direction in comparison to 2D windows. The 3D U-net approach with 3D windows can more effectively preserve the continuity of primaries and manage the complex disparities between the actual and simulated multiples. The proposed 3D U-net approach exhibits 1 dB improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio compared to the 2D U-net approach, as observed in the synthesis data section, and exhibits more outstanding performance in the preservation of primaries and removal of residual multiples in both synthesis and reality data sections. Moreover, to expedite network training in our proposed 3D U-net approach we employ the transfer learning (TL) strategy by utilizing the network parameters of 3D U-net estimated in the preceding data segment as the initial network parameters of 3D U-net for the subsequent data segment. In the reality data section, the 3D U-net approach incorporating TL reduces the computational expense by 70% compared to the one without TL.展开更多

文摘The deep convolutional neural network U-net has been introduced into adaptive subtraction, which is a critical step in effectively suppressing seismic multiples. The U-net approach has higher precision than the traditional linear regression approach. However, the existing 2D U-net approach with 2D data windows can not deal with elaborate discrepancies between the actual and simulated multiples along the gather direction. It may lead to erroneous preservation of primaries or generate obvious vestigial multiples, especially in complex media. To further enhance the multiple suppression accuracy, we present an adaptive subtraction approach utilizing 3D U-net architecture, which can adaptively separate primaries and multiples utilizing 3D windows. The utilization of 3D windows allows for enhanced depiction of spatial continuity and anisotropy of seismic events along the gather direction in comparison to 2D windows. The 3D U-net approach with 3D windows can more effectively preserve the continuity of primaries and manage the complex disparities between the actual and simulated multiples. The proposed 3D U-net approach exhibits 1 dB improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio compared to the 2D U-net approach, as observed in the synthesis data section, and exhibits more outstanding performance in the preservation of primaries and removal of residual multiples in both synthesis and reality data sections. Moreover, to expedite network training in our proposed 3D U-net approach we employ the transfer learning (TL) strategy by utilizing the network parameters of 3D U-net estimated in the preceding data segment as the initial network parameters of 3D U-net for the subsequent data segment. In the reality data section, the 3D U-net approach incorporating TL reduces the computational expense by 70% compared to the one without TL.
