GP is used here to search for appropriate model structures in function space, and the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is used for Nonlinear Parameter Estimation (NPE) of dynamic model structures. In addition, GPM integrates the results of Nonlinear Time Series Analysis (NTSA) to adjust the parameters and takes them as the criteria of established models. Experiments showed the effectiveness of such improvements on chaotic time series modeling.展开更多

In this paper, the authors simplify a classic project scheduling problem, which is the nonlinear continuous time-cost tradeoff problem(TCTP). Simplifying TCTP is a simple path problem in a critical path method(CPM) network. The authors transform TCTP into a simple activity float problem and design a complex polynomial algorithm for its solution. First, the authors discover relationships between activity floats and path lengths by studying activity floats from the perspective of path instead of time.Second, the authors perform simplification and improve the efficiency and accuracy of the solution by deleting redundant activities and narrowing the duration intervals of non-redundant activities. Finally,the authors compare our method with current methods. The relationships between activity floats and path lengths provide new approaches for other path and correlative project problems.展开更多

By transforming the system representation under the arrow form and using a new constructed Lyapunov function,the aggregation techniques,the Borne-Gentina practical stability criterion associated with the properties, new delay-independent stability conditions of the considered systems are established. Compared with the existing results in this area, the obtained result is explicit, simple to use and allows us to avoid the problem of searching a common Lyapunov function. Finally, an example is provided, with numerical simulations,to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多

The definition of r-consensus is introduced for singular systems of multi-agent networks. Firstly, linear systems with algebraic constraints are considered, and the corresponding results about consensus and average-consensus are derived. Then r-consensus and consensus problems of singular systems are investigated. Sufficient conditions of r-consensus and consensus are obtained,respectively. Finally, an illustrative example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多
