Logical stochastic resonance in a cross-bifurcation non-smooth system

This paper investigates logical stochastic resonance(LSR)in a cross-bifurcation non-smooth system driven by Gaussian colored noise.In this system,a bifurcation parameter triggers a transition between monostability,bistability and tristability.By using Novikov's theorem and the unified colored noise approximation method,the approximate Fokker-Planck equation is obtained.Then we derive the generalized potential function and the transition rates to analyze the LSR phenomenon using numerical simulations.We simulate the logic operation of the system in the bistable and tristable regions respectively.We assess the impact of Gaussian colored noise on the LSR and discover that the reliability of the logic response depends on the noise strength and the bifurcation parameter.Furthermore,it is found that the bistable region has a more extensive parameter range to produce reliable logic operation compared with the tristable region,since the tristable region is more sensitive to noise than the bistable one.

Realizing reliable XOR logic operation via logical chaotic resonance in a triple-well potential system

There exists an optimal range of intensity of a chaotic force in which the behavior of a chaos-driven bistable system with two weak inputs can be consistently mapped to a specific logic output. This phenomenon is called logical chaotic resonance(LCR). However, realization of a reliable exclusive disjunction(XOR) through LCR has not been reported.Here, we explore the possibility of using chaos to enhance the reliability of XOR logic operation in a triple-well potential system via LCR. The success probability P of obtaining XOR logic operation can take the maximum value of 1 in an optimal window of intensity D of a chaotic force. Namely, success probability P displays characteristic bell-shaped behavior by altering the intensity of the chaotic driving force, indicating the occurrence of LCR. Further, the effects of periodic force on LCR have been investigated. For a subthreshold chaotic force, a periodic force with appropriate amplitude and frequency can help enhance the reliability of XOR logic operation. Thus, LCR can be effectively regulated by changing the amplitude and frequency of the periodic force.

High-performance chiral all-optical OR logic gate based on topological edge states of valley photonic crystal

For all-optical communication and information processing,it is necessary to develop all-optical logic gates based on photonic structures that can directly perform logic operations.All-optical logic gates have been demonstrated based on conventional waveguides and interferometry,as well as photonic crystal structures.Nonetheless,any defects in those structures will introduce high scattering loss,which compromises the fidelity and contrast ratio of the information process.Based on the spin-valley locking effect that can achieve defect-immune unidirectional transmission of topological edge states in valley photonic crystals(VPCs),we propose a high-performance all-optical logic OR gate based on a VPC structure.By tuning the working bandwidth of the two input channels,we prevent interference between the two channels to achieve a stable and high-fidelity output.The transmittance of both channels is higher than 0.8,and a high contrast ratio of 28.8 dB is achieved.Moreover,the chirality of the logic gate originated from the spin-valley locking effect allows using different circularly polarized light as inputs,representing“1”or“0”,which is highly desired in quantum computing.The device’s footprint is 18μm×12μm,allowing high-density on-chip integration.In addition,this design can be experimentally fabricated using current nanofabrication techniques and will have potential applications in optical communication,information processing,and quantum computing.

Temperature-induced logical resonance in the Hodgkin–Huxley neuron

Logical resonance has been demonstrated to be present in the Fitz Hugh-Nagumo(FHN)neuron,namely,the FHN neuron can operate as a reliable logic gate within an optimal parameter window.Here we attempt to extend the results to the more biologically realistic Hodgkin-Huxley(HH)model of neurons.In general,biological organisms have an optimal temperature at which the biological functions are most effective.In view of this,we examine if there is an optimal range of temperature where the HH neuron can work like a specific logic gate,and how temperature influences the logical resonance.Here we use the success probability P to measure the reliability of the specific logic gate.For AND logic gate,P increases with temperature T,reaches the maximum in an optimal window of T,and eventually decreases,which indicates the occurrence of the temperature-induced logical resonance phenomenon in the HH neuron.Moreover,single and double logical resonances can be induced by altering the frequency of the modulating periodic signal under the proper temperatures,suggesting the appearance of temperature-controlled transition of logical resonance.These results provide important clues for constructing neuron-based energy-efficient new-fashioned logical devices.

Modified 2 Satisfiability Reverse Analysis Method via Logical Permutation Operator

The effectiveness of the logic mining approach is strongly correlated to the quality of the induced logical representation that represent the behaviour of the data.Specifically,the optimum induced logical representation indicates the capability of the logic mining approach in generalizing the real datasets of different variants and dimensions.The main issues with the logic extracted by the standard logic mining techniques are lack of interpretability and the weakness in terms of the structural and arrangement of the 2 Satisfiability logic causing lower accuracy.To address the issues,the logical permutation serves as an alternative mechanism that can enhance the probability of the 2 Satisfiability logical rule becoming true by utilizing the definitive finite arrangement of attributes.This work aims to examine and analyze the significant effect of logical permutation on the performance of data extraction ability of the logic mining approach incorporated with the recurrent discrete Hopfield Neural Network.Based on the theory,the effect of permutation and associate memories in recurrent Hopfield Neural Network will potentially improve the accuracy of the existing logic mining approach.To validate the impact of the logical permutation on the retrieval phase of the logic mining model,the proposed work is experimentally tested on a different class of the benchmark real datasets ranging from the multivariate and timeseries datasets.The experimental results show the significant improvement in the proposed logical permutation-based logic mining according to the domains such as compatibility,accuracy,and competitiveness as opposed to the plethora of standard 2 Satisfiability Reverse Analysis methods.

Array-enhanced Logical Stochastic Resonance in Coupled Bistable Systems

We investigate the impact of coupling on the reliability of the logic system as well as the logical stochastic resonance （LSR） phenomenon in the coupled logic gates system. It is found that compared with single logic gate, the coupled system could yield reliable logic outputs in a much wider noise region, which means coupling can obviously improve the reliability of the logic system and thus enhance the LSR effect. Moreover, we find that the enhancement is larger for larger system size, whereas for large enough size the enhancement seems to be saturated. Finally, we also examine the effect of coupling strength, it can be observed that the noise region where reliable logic outputs can be obtained evolves non-monotonically as the coupling strength increases, displaying a resonance-like effect.

Ecological Accounting: A Research Review and Conceptual Framework

Where sustainable development is concerned, there is an urgent need to establish new information systems that integrate economic, social and ecological factors. The emergence of demand for this information makes the development of ecological accounting possible. Yet, most current research on ecological accounting focuses on two aspects: (1) the theoretical aspect, including background, concepts and models and (2) specific research on ecological accounting. Some scholars have proposed a conceptual framework, but this is not systematic or thorough enough. Seizing the opportunity of sustainable development in a key strategic location of the world, this paper begins by analyzing the logical evolution of ecological accounting, summarizes the existing ecological accounting theory, and combines the mature theoretical study of resources accounting with environmental accounting. All of these efforts result in this paper forwarding a framework of ecological accounting that aims to provide a guideline for future development.

Study on Absorptive Capacity to Formaldehyde and Physiological and Biochemical Changes of Scindapsus aureus Based on the Regulation of LaCl_3

[Objective] This study was to analyze LaCl3 sprayed onto Scindapsus au- reus on Chlorophyll content and plasmamembrane permeability of leaves of Scindap- sus aureus, in order to determinate a suitable dosage of LaCl3. [Method] With Scindapsus aureus as the test subject, 110 households of 20 communities in the New District of Nantong were selected to investigate formaldehyde concentration in indoor air; and effect of LaCl3 on absorptive capacity to formaldehyde of Scindapsus aureus was studied through fumigating in laboratory. Simultaneously, its physiological and biochemical mechanism of formaldehyde resistance was studied. [Result] The re- sults showed that formaldehyde pollution of indoor air was serious in the New District of Nantong, and the degree of pollution was related to the time after decoration. The suitable concentration of LaCl3 for Scindapsus aureus was 20 mg/L. The ability to ab- sorb formaldehyde of Scindapsus aureus, which was calculated by per unit leaf area, was enhanced after spraying the suitable concentration of LaCl3 by 19.75%. When Scindapsus aureus was stressed by formaldehyde, chlorophyll content decreased by 39.87%, membrane permeability and cumulative MDA amount increased by 8.17% and 56.92%, respectively, and POD activity increased by 11.32%. However, by com- paring the group pre-sprayed with LaCl3 and the group not sprayed with LaCl3 under formaldehyde stress, chlorophyll content of Scindapsus aureus reduced lessly, mem- brane permeability and MDA both increased lessly, while POD activity increased more. [Conclusion] This study provides a new thinking direction for broadening of rare earth application and control measures of indoor air pollution.

Modeling and Control of a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor Based on a Mixed Logical Dynamical Model

A novel control strategy for a continuous stirred tank reactor(CSTR)system,which has the typical characteristic of strongly pronounced nonlinearity,multiple operating points,and a wide operating range,is initiated from the point of hybrid systems.The proposed scheme makes full use of the modeling power of mixed logical dy- namical(MLD)systems to describe the highly nonlinear dynamics and multiple operating points in a unified framework as a hybrid system,and takes advantage of the good control quality of model predictive control(MPC) to design a controller.Thus,this approach avoids oscillation during switching between sub-systems,helps to relieve shaking in transition,and augments the stability robustness of the whole system,and finally achieves optimal(i.e. fast and smooth)transition between operating points.The simulation results demonstrate that the presented ap- proach has a satisfactory performance.

FUZZY COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION MODEL OF ECOLOGICAL DEMONSTRATION AREA

Ecological demonstration area (EDA) is an authorized nomination, which should be assessed from several aspects, including ecological, social, environmental, economic ones and so on. It is difficult to advance an exact developing level index of EDA due to its indicator system’s complexity and disequilibrium. In this paper, a framework of indicators was set to evaluate, monitor and examine the comprehensive level of ecological demonstration area (EDA). Fuzzy logic method was used to develop the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model (FCEM), which could quantitatively reveal the developing degree of EDA. Huiji District of Zhengzhou, Henan Province, one of the 9th group of national EDAs, was taken as a study case. The framework of FCEM for the integrated system included six subsystems, which were social, economic, ecological, rural, urban and accessorial description ones. The research would be valuable in the comprehensive quantitative evaluation of EDA and would work as a guide in the construction practices of Huiji ecological demonstration area.

It has been proved that the 4-ray tree has the best performance in using these metrics. The key management problem is also investigated based on user probability model, and gives two evaluating parameters to re-keying and key storage cost.
