In this paper, based on the knowledge representation ability and learning capability, an improved T–S fuzzy neural network(TSFNN) is introduced to predict BOD values by the soft computing method. In this improved TSFNN, a K-means clustering is used to initialize the structure of TSFNN, including the number of fuzzy rules and parameters of membership function. For training TSFNN, a gradient descent method with the momentum item is used to adjust antecedent parameters and consequent parameters. This improved TSFNN is applied to predict the BOD values in effluent of the wastewater treatment process. The simulation results show that the TSFNN with K-means clustering algorithm can measure the BOD values accurately. The algorithm presents better approximation performance than some other methods.展开更多

Based on the Preparata, Metze, and Chien(PMC)model, the n-dimensional hypercube network is proved to be t/kdiagnosable. In this paper, based on the Maeng and Malek(MM)*model, a novel t/k-fault diagnosis(1≤k≤4) algorithm of ndimensional hypercube, called t/k-MM*-DIAG, is proposed to isolate all faulty processors within the set of nodes, among which the number of fault-free nodes identified wrongly as faulty is at most k. The time complexity in our algorithm is only O(2~n n~2).展开更多

The given shape is first sampled uniformly in the polar coordinate. Then the discrete series is transformed to frequency domain and constructed to a shape characteristics vector. Firstly, sample set is roughly clustered using SOFM neural network to reduce the scale of samples. K-means algo- rithm is then applied to improve the performance of SOFM neural network and process the accurate clustering. K-means algorithm also increases the controllability of the clustering. The K-means algo- rithm modified SOFM neural network is used to cluster the shape characteristics vectors which is previously constructed. With leaf shapes as an example, the simulation results show that this method is effective to cluster the contour shapes.展开更多

The aim was to examine and compare these nonparametric classification methods on the following attributes: robustness to training data, sensitivity to changes, data fitting, stability, ability to handle large data sizes, sensitivity to noise, time invested in parameter tuning, and accuracy. The performances, strengths and shortcomings of each of the algorithms were examined, and finally, a conclusion was arrived at on which one has higher performance. It was evident from the literature reviewed that RF is too sensitive to small changes in the training dataset and is occasionally unstable and tends to overfit in the model. KNN is easy to implement and understand but has a major drawback of becoming significantly slow as the size of the data in use grows, while the ideal value of K for the KNN classifier is difficult to set. SVM and RF are insensitive to noise or overtraining, which shows their ability in dealing with unbalanced data. Larger input datasets will lengthen classification times for NN and KNN more than for SVM and RF. Among these nonparametric classification methods, NN has the potential to become a more widely used classification algorithm, but because of their time-consuming parameter tuning procedure, high level of complexity in computational processing, the numerous types of NN architectures to choose from and the high number of algorithms used for training, most researchers recommend SVM and RF as easier and wieldy used methods which repeatedly achieve results with high accuracies and are often faster to implement.展开更多

To simplify its analysis, it is as-sumed that the failure probability of each node is independent. A 3-D mesh is partitioned into smaller submeshes,and then the probability with which each submesh satisfies the defined condition is computed. If each submesh satis-fies the condition, then the whole mesh is connected. Consequently, the probability that a 3-D mesh is connected iscomputed assuming each node has a failure probability. Mathematical methods are used to derive a relationship be-tween network node failure probability and network connectivity probability. The calculated results show that the 3-D mesh networks can remain connected with very high probability in practice. It is formally proved that when thenetwork node failure probability is boutded by 0.45 %, the 3-D mesh networks of more than three hundred thousandnodes remain connected with probability larger than 99 %. The theoretical results show that the method is a power-ful technique to calculate the lower bound of the connectivity probability of mesh networks.展开更多

For the sake of reducing the total cost and strengthening the central management, the MPLS networks restrict the number of paths that a commodity can use, for maintaining the quality of service (QoS) of the users, the demand of each commodity must be satisfied. Under the above conditions, some links in the network may be too much loaded, affecting the performance of the whole network drastically. For this problem, in [1], we proposed two mathematical models to describe it and a heuristic algorithm which quickly finds transmitting paths for each commodity are also presented. In this paper, we propose a new heuristic algorithm which finds a feasible path set for each commodity, and then select some paths from the path set through a mixed integer linear programming to transmit the demand of each commodity. This strategy reduces the scale of the original problem to a large extent. We test 50 instances and the results show the effectiveness of the new heuristic algorithm.展开更多
