The main idea is the use of hashing tables in order to prune a considerable portion of graph database that cannot contain the answer set. These tables are implemented using column-based techniques and are used to store graphs of database, frequent sub-graphs and the neighborhood of nodes. In order to exact checking of remaining graphs, the vertex invariant is used for isomorphism test which can be parallel implemented. The results of evaluation indicate that proposed method outperforms existing methods.展开更多

In this paper, a novel scheduling strategy is proposed for a practical crude oil blending process. The objective is to keep the property of feedstock, mainly described by the true boiling point (TBP) data, consistent and suitable. Firstly, the mathematical model is established. Then, a heuristically initialized hybrid iterative (HIHI) algorithm based on a two-level optimization structure, in which tabu search (TS) and differential evolution (DE) are used for upper-level and lower-level optimization, respectively, is proposed to get the model solution. Finally, the effectiveness and efficiency of the scheduling strategy is validated via real data from a certain refinery.展开更多

It is one of the essential steps in information processing in remote sensing. To attain a highly accurate, reliable and low computation cost in image registration a suitable and similarity metric and reduction in search data and search space is required. In this paper, the author shows that if the right bin size is chosen, mutual information can be more robust than correlation in the registration of multi-temporal images. The author also compares the sensitivity of mutual information and correlation to Gaussian and multiplicative speckle noise. The author investigates automatic subimage selection as a reduction in search data strategy. The author proposes a measure, called alienability, which shows the ability ofa subimage to provide reliable registration. Alternate subimage selection methods such as using gradient, entropy and variance are also investigated. The author furthermore looks into a search space strategy using a gradient approach to maximize mutual information and show our first results.展开更多

Extensive studies have been devoted in boosting the performance of BFS. As the most effective solution, GPU-acceleration achieves the state-of-the-art result of 3.3×109 traversed edges per second on a NVIDIA Tesla C2050 GPU. A novel vertex frontier based GPU BFS algorithm is proposed, and its main features are three-fold. Firstly, to obtain a better workload balance for irregular graphs, a virtual-queue task decomposition and mapping strategy is introduced for vertex frontier expanding. Secondly, a global deduplicate detection scheme is proposed to remove reduplicative vertices from vertex frontier effectively. Finally, a GPU-based bottom-up BFS approach is employed to process large frontier. The experimental results demonstrate that the algorithm can achieve 10% improvement over the state-of-the-art method on diverse graphs. Especially, it exhibits 2-3 times speedup on low-diameter and scale-free graphs over the state-of-the-art on a NVIDIA Tesla K20 c GPU, reaching a peak traversal rate of 11.2×109 edges/s.展开更多

According to the fact that the gray values of adjacent pixels will not vary fast, the algorithm employs an interlaced search pattem in the search window to estimate the motion vector of the objectblock. Simulation and actual experiments demanstrate that the proposed algmithm greatly outperforms the well-known three-step search and dianond search algoritlam, no matter the motion vector is large or small. Comparedc with the full search algorithm, the proposed one achieves similar peffomance but requires much less computation, therefore, the algorithm is well qualified for real-time video image processing.展开更多

We design a multi-objective TSP in a stochastic dynamic environment. This dynamic setting of the problem is very useful for routing in ad-hoc networks. The proposed search system first uses parallel processors to identify the extreme solutions of the search space for each ofk objectives individually at the same time. These solutions are merged into the so-called hit-frequency matrix E. The solutions in E are then searched by parallel processors and evaluated for dominance relationship. The search system is implemented in two different ways master-worker architecture and pipeline architecture.展开更多

Our method extends the model of Lumsdaine ＆ Papell[1] （1997）, and it could be applied to the case of more than two structural changes.

What is more, we can select the criterion value of F incremental statistic to control the significance of the breaks, based on kinds of investigation intentions.
