Based on the Bayesian information criterion, this paper proposes the improved local linear prediction method to predict chaotic time series. This method uses spatial correlation and temporal correlation simultaneously. Simulation results show that the improved local linear prediction method can effectively make multi-step and one-step prediction of chaotic time series and the multi-step prediction performance and one-step prediction accuracy of the improved local linear prediction method are superior to those of the traditional local linear prediction method.

An adaptive strategy based on linear prediction of queue length to minimize congestion in Barabási-Albert scale-free networks

In this paper, we propose an adaptive strategy based on the linear prediction of queue length to minimize congestion in Barabaisi-Albert （BA） scale-free networks. This strategy uses local knowledge of traffic conditions and allows nodes to be able to self-coordinate their accepting probability to the incoming packets. We show that the strategy can delay remarkably the onset of congestion and systems avoiding the congestion can benefit from hierarchical organization of accepting rates of nodes. Furthermore, with the increase of prediction orders, we achieve larger values for the critical load together with a smooth transition from free-flow to congestion.

LINEAR PREDICTION APPROACH IN AIRBORNE ADAPTIVE ARRAYS

To cope with the time-varying and Dopper-broadened clutter in airborne phase array radars, it is required that the signal processing should be adaptive and two-dimensional both in time and in space. However, the optimum two-dimensional adaptive processing is hard to realize real-timely because it requires a large amount of computation. From the idea of approximating the clutter process by using an auto regressive process, a linear prediction approach is proposed to realize the adaptive space-time processing of airborne adaptive array signals. The research shows that the clutter process can be well approximated by a low-order AR process, so a low-order linear prediction receiver can get a sub-optimum performance at a very low expense. Besides, the low-order linear prediction receiver has additional degrees of freedom to cope with other colored noises and interferences. In consideration of the many advantages of the linear prediction receiver in both algorithms and realizations, it has a good prospect in its application to air borne adaptive array signal processing.

The simulation results show that the KLT-based local linear prediction method can effectively make one-step and multi-step prediction for chaotic time series, and the one-step and multi-step prediction accuracies of the KLT-based local linear prediction method are superior to that of the traditional local linear prediction.

In contrastto the conventional linear prediction method, PLPC exhibits very little sensitivity to channel ermrs and provides amore efficient compression performance. The results of simulations with Lena 512 X 512 and bitrates ranging from0.17 to 3.2 (lossless)bits/pixel are given to show that the PLPC method is very suitable for the human visualperception.

An improved algorithm for noise-robust sparse linear prediction of speech

The performance of linear prediction analysis of speech deteriorates rapidly under noisy environments. To tackle this issue, an improved noise-robust sparse linear prediction algorithm is proposed. First, the linear prediction residual of speech is modeled as Student-t distribution, and the additive noise is incorporated explicitly to increase the robustness, thus a probabilistic model for sparse linear prediction of speech is built, Furthermore, variational Bayesian inference is utilized to approximate the intractable posterior distributions of the model parameters, and then the optimal linear prediction parameters are estimated robustly. The experimental results demonstrate the advantage of the developed algorithm in terms of several different metrics compared with the traditional algorithm and the l1 norm minimization based sparse linear prediction algorithm proposed in recent years. Finally it draws to a conclusion that the proposed algorithm is more robust to noise and is able to increase the speech quality in applications.

Blind Multipath Identification: A Weighted Linear Prediction Approach

Blind channel identification exploits the measurable channel output signaland some prior knowledge of the statistics of the channel input signal. However, in many scenarios,more side information is available, In digital communication systems, the pulse-shaping filter inthe transmitter and the anti-aliasing filter in the receiver are often known to the receiver.Exploitation of this prior knowledge can simplify the channel identification problem. In this paper,we pose the multipath identification problem as solving a group of linear equations. While we solvethe linear equations in the least-square meaning, a weight matrix can be introduced to improve theperformance of the estimator. The optimal weight matrix is derived. Compared with the existingLinear Prediction (UP) based multipath identification approach, the proposed approach offers asubstantial performance gain.

Multi-Level Inverter Linear Predictive Phase Composition Strategy for UPQC

The power system is facing numerous issues when the distributed gen-eration is added to the existing system.The existing power system has not been planned with flawless power quality control.These restrictions in the power trans-mission generation system are compensated by the use of devices such as the Static Synchronous Compensator(STATCOM),the Unified Power Quality Con-ditioner(UPQC)series/shunt compensators,etc.In this work,UPQC’s plan with the joint activity of photovoltaic(PV)exhibits is proposed.The proposed system is made out of series and shunt regulators and PV.A boost converter connects the DC link to the PV source,allowing it to compensate for voltage sags,swells,vol-tage interferences,harmonics,and reactive power issues.In this paper,the fea-tures of a seven-level Cascaded H-Bridge Multi-Level idea are applied to shunt and series active filter changeovers to reduce Total Harmonic Distortion and com-pensate for voltage issues.Despite its power quality capacity for common cou-pling,the proposed system can inject the grid’s dynamic power.During voltage interference,it can also provide a piece of delicate burden power.The simulation is carried out with the help of MATLAB/SIMULINK programming,and the results are compared to those of other conventional methods.

Rheological Behaviour for Polymer Melts and Concentrated Solutions Part Ⅲ: A New Multiple Entanglement Model to Predict the Dependence of Linear Viscoelastic Function (η_0, Ψ_(10)~0,η_(ext)~0) on the Ranges of Primary Molecular Weights and th

It is shown theoretically that the viscoelasticity of polymer melts is determined by three combining factorst they are the primary molecular weight and its distribution, the number of entanglement sites on polymer chain and the sequence distribution of constituent chains in entanglement spacings. A unified quantity for the three combing factors is the average constrained dimensional number of constituent chains in the long entanglement spacings (v). A new relation of v to the primary molecular weight and the number of testing polymers were derived from the multiple entanglement and reptation model, and a new method for determining v was proposed. The dependences of linear viscoelastic functions on the primary molecular weight and its distribution were derived by the statistical method. When Mn=6Me to 18 Me, the values of (v) can range from 3.33 to 3.70. Their values are in a good agreement with the experiment data, and it can slightjy vary with the different species of polymers and the different ranges of molecular weight of polymers

Comparison of Khasi Speech Representations with Different Spectral Features and Hidden Markov States

In this paper,we present a comparison of Khasi speech representations with four different spectral features and novel extension towards the development of Khasi speech corpora.These four features include linear predictive coding(LPC),linear prediction cepstrum coefficient(LPCC),perceptual linear prediction(PLP),and Mel frequency cepstral coefficient(MFCC).The 10-hour speech data were used for training and 3-hour data for testing.For each spectral feature,different hidden Markov model(HMM)based recognizers with variations in HMM states and different Gaussian mixture models(GMMs)were built.The performance was evaluated by using the word error rate(WER).The experimental results show that MFCC provides a better representation for Khasi speech compared with the other three spectral features.

A BLIND AUDIO STEGANALYSIS BASED ON FEATURE FUSION

In this paper, we present a blind steganalysis based on feature fusion. Features based on Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT), which consists of second-order derivative spectrum features of audio and Mel-frequency cepstrum coefficients, audio quality metrics and features on linear prediction residue are extracted separately. Then feature fusion is conducted. The performance of the proposed steganalysis is evaluated against 4 steganographic schemes: Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), Quantization Index Modulation (QIM), ECHO embedding (ECHO), and Least Significant Bit em-bedding (LSB). Experiment results show that the classifying performance of the proposed detector is much superior to the previous work. Even more exciting is that the proposed methodology could detect the four steganography, with 85%+ classification accuracy achieved in all the detections, which makes the proposed steganalysis methodology capable of being regarded as a blind steganalysis, and especially useful when the steganalyzer are without the knowledge of the steganographic scheme employed in data embedding.

In this work,we address the frequency estimation problem of a complex single-tone embedded in the heavy-tailed noise.With the use of the linear prediction(LP)property and l_(1)-norm minimization,a robust frequency estimator is developed.Since the proposed method employs the weighted l_(1)-norm on the LP errors,it can be regarded as an extension of the l_(1)-generalized weighted linear predictor.Computer simulations are conducted in the environment of α-stable noise,indicating the superiority of the proposed algorithm,in terms of its robust to outliers and nearly optimal estimation performance.

One compound approach combining factor-analytic model with AMMI and GGE biplot to improve multi-environment trials analysis

To improve multi-environmental trial(MET)analysis,a compound method—which combines factor analytic(FA)model with additive main effect and multiplicative interaction(AMMI)and genotype main effect plus genotype-by-environment interaction(GGE)biplot—was conducted in this study.The diameter at breast height of 36 open-pollinated(OP)families of Pinus taeda at six sites in South China was used as a raw dataset.The best linear unbiased prediction(BLUP)data of all individual trees in each site was obtained by fitting the spatial effects with the FA method from raw data.The raw data and BLUP data were analyzed and compared by using the AMMI and GGE biplot.BLUP results showed that the six sites were heterogeneous and spatial variation could be effectively fitted by spatial analysis with the FA method.AMMI analysis identified that two datasets had highly significant effects on the site,family,and their interactions,while BLUP data had a smaller residual error,but higher variation explaining ability and more credible stability than raw data.GGE biplot results revealed that raw data and BLUP data had different results in mega-environment delineation,test-environment evaluation,and genotype evaluation.In addition,BLUP data results were more reasonable due to the stronger analytical ability of the first two principal components.Our study suggests that the compound method combing the FA method with the AMMI and GGE biplot could improve the analysis result of MET data in Pinus teada as it was more reliable than direct AMMI and GGE biplot analysis on raw data.

Identification of main effect and epistatic QTLs controlling initial flowering date in cultivated peanut(Arachis hypogaea L.)

Initial flowering date(IFD)is closely related to mature period of peanut pods.In present study,a population of recombinant inbred lines(RIL)derived from the cross between Silihong(female parent)and Jinonghei 3(male parent)was used to map QTLs associated with IFD.The RIL population and its two parental cultivars were planted in two locations of Hebei Province,China from 2015 to 2018(eight environments).Based on a high-density genetic linkage map(including 2996 SNP and 330 SSR markers)previously constructed in our laboratory,QTLs were analyzed using phenotypic data and the best linear unbiased prediction(BLUP)value of initial flowering date by inclusive composite interval mapping(ICIM)method.Interaction effects between every two QTLs and between individual QTL and environment were also analyzed.In cultivated peanut,IFD was affected by genotypic factor and environments simultaneously,and its broad sense heritability(h2)was estimated as 86.8%。Using the IFD phenotypic data from the eight environments,a total of 19 QTLs for IFD were detected,and the phenotypic variation explained(PVE)by each QTL ranged from 1.15 to 21.82%.Especially,five of them were also detected by the BLUP value of IFD.In addition,12 additive QTLs and 35 pairs of epistatic QTLs(62 loci involved)were identifed by the joint analysis of IFD across eight environments.Three QTLs(qIFDB04.1,qIFDB07.1 and qIFDB08.1)located on chromosome B04,B07 and B08 were identified as main-effect QTL for IFD,which had the most potential to be used in peanut breeding.This study would be helpful for the early-maturity and adaptability breeding in cultivated peanut.
